Im not a supporter of PDP, I personally feel that BOTH canidates are incompetent as this incident proves. I thought Buhari would fight corruption, so he does this by allowing his party memebers to buy thugs/votes etc. Wouldnt he have butressed his point and won a following by not follwoing the status quo. Hence I say till a REAL leader stands up, its the .same old wine only in new bottles

Indeed...if Fashola had used Lagos resources to develop industrial production....eg fisheries, even used the water hyacinth(a weed that clogs up the lagos lagoon) as the basis of a chemical industry.....there would have been jobs.

But unfortuately...Fashola is a build roads governor.

As are most governors...PDP or APC. Still....Fashola generates most of his revenue at home...I'll give him that...but he would have generated far more if he had supported industrial development.

This is indeed sad and unbehalf of the #TeamChange I want to express our deepest condolences. He was a graduate and a youth like us. God willing feBUHARI will bring alot of changes to our lives.

RIP rare gem

so who is to tackle the issue if not the federal Govt
Thinkr:
I know. But also since 1960 Nigerian youths have been jobless. GEJ did his best. Why should both APC and PDP campaign by throwing money? Is it no against the law to spray and damage our money. Instead of the bastadnista to tackle the issue he is blaming GEJ. Dafuq?

Welcome to the oil driven society.

Where the young people struggle for their share of the oil kudi....instead of struggling to invent new things, or develop new ideas.

Where there are no jobs...because the industries have been stifled and beaten back by imports fueled by oil lucre.

Where discussion about the economy is how we share the oil money rather than how we use our limited resources to make more money and resources.

Where every Nigerians thinks we are rich....BUT we are not. We are a poor nation who thinks that poverty can be alleviated by looking for resources to sell....so that we can share the money.

We won't invest in ideas. We won't work hard at something. We won't build our own planes, cars, air conditioners, lorries, tv sets, railway carriages, clothes, etc...BECAUSE...we prefer to chop the crumbs from Master's table.

And in this election PDP and APC....the guilty party here...have no ideas how to develop an oil free economy.

No....it is all worhtless talk.

Nigerians....am sorry...but this is what you get and deserve. Stomach infrastructure govt. Until you wake up and realise that there is no unlimited pot of gold....and you have to work hard to make a living

Oil is a curse.
^^^
You keep saying it and you will be challenged each time you say it.

Oil is not a curse. It is a natural resource. And like any resource, it may be put to good or bad use. It isn't oil's fault that Nigeria and a few other poorly managed countries chose to piss their oil revenues away and distort their economic base.

I have always said it and will continue to say it. For every Nigeria that chose to squander its opportunities and mortgage the future of its youth, there is a Norway. A Norway that chose to use its oil wealth to build the future of its young.

The facts are clear.

the federal govt cannot do everything my friend. The federal govt will not put police at every wedding to make sure you don't spray note. The federal govt will not put police in every bus in lagos road to monitor our currency. APC and PDP and every other citizens of Nigeria are aware of the law concerning our local notes so should value it. Stop blaming the govt for everything in Nigeria. This issue is for everyone to tackle not PDP alone.

Sorry....but the chap you replied to is right.

PDP should have improved electricity power supply to 20000mw by now. They should have increased spending for vocational and technical education. They should have stopped funding universities....made them public private....and used the kudi for primary and secondary schools....and they should have increased funding for STEM.

bUT NO....PDP has chosen to run Dutch Diseased economy. Now...we are broke because oil price has fallen.

If PDP had done what they were supposed to do...that young man would have had a job!
^^^
Only now are you getting to the heart of the matter.

Apportion blame to the parties responsible - Nigerian governments from the 2nd half of the last century to date.

Most of the blame however, should go to the led. Men and women who stood idly by while a small, vicious elite took them by the nose and led them to the slaughter.

Even dumb animals have better instincts of self preservation. angry

If only the PDP-led FG had provided jobs for the teeming Youths, nobody would have struggled to share some money from these politicians. This is why we want a change in government. We need jobs for the ever increasing unemployed. We need to avert more loss of our citizens. We also need strong enforcement of relevant laws that discourages monetisation of campaign. I appeal to our youths to shun violence, let us endure this visionless government for this short period till M Buhari is sworn in.

Vote Change, Vote Buhari! RIP to the dead
Bros, due to the fallen state of the universe, bad things of life locates you with ease while the good once waits for you to come for them.
What should prompt a carpenter so poor, living in a poor environment to think he could have as much as six children hoping for govt to create a life for them?
When Jesus offer us a new life, He offered us a new lifestyle 1Corinthians6:12.
The act of going out on a rally for politicians for money is wrong, "we should all do something to right the wrongs that we see and not just complain about them"
And the errant dreams of any politician (nationwide or even worldwide) eradicating poverty in a generation is not a feasible goal as the world barrels towards more confusion, conflict and climate change.
Re: Jobless Youth Killed While Struggling For Campaign Money by klarke(m): 3:56pm On Jan 22, 2015
Buhari is a destabilisation agent and far worst than Obj - Tinibu 2007.

As ex-coup plotter, Buhari in not qualified to rule - Momodu 2011.

Buhari should retire, it is time for a new generation of leaders - Elrufai 2011.

From the witness of two or three, a matter is settled.

Buhari is not d type of change we are looking for. A leopard cannot change its spot.

This is to show the high level of poverty caused by JONATHAN but true NIGERIANS are yearning for CHANGE. Nigerians need a leader who can provide solutions to all their questions.

Not like JONATHAN that when we complain of shortage of power supply he will tell us BUHARI has no certificate, when we complain of Boko-haram he will tell us BUHARI can not remember his phone number, when we complain of our missing girls, he will tell us BUHARI can not use a computer, when will complain of UNEMPLOYMENT he will tell us BUHARI has cancer. How does all those responses bring solutions to our questions?

This election is not about JONATHAN or BUHARI but is about YOUR future and my FUTURE and the future of our generation unborn.

The CHANGE we need is here.

In ur sense of reasoning, what ur apc is doing represents change, u share money during campaign n a youth died in d process n u r blaming d govt of d day. I rather embrace transformation, n vote 4 consolidation instead of this type of change without future plan.

please how many jobs did buhari create as head of state, ?
The military DICTATOR's regime actually LOST jobs with factories closing left, right & centre due to his daft economic policies.

BTW, how many jobs have been created by the Thief'nuibu CABAL in Lagos state (including the 57 LGAs & LCDAs) in the last 16 years despite increasing IGR from N7.2 billion in 1999 to N246 billion in 2013 i.e. more than 34 times. These money was from our pockets, wallets, handbags & bags!

- How many professional teachers etc recruited for primary & secondary schools?
- How many doctors, nurses, lab technicians were recruited annualy in the last 16 years for the general hospitals and primary health clinics?
- How many engineers, water technicians, accountants etc were recruited for the Lagos State Water Corporation, LSWC despite annual budget of N20 billion to ensure there is TAP water all over the state?
- How many engineers, road technicians, administrators, labourers etc were recruited to maintain & expand the FEEDER roads across the state?

RE: NIGER DELTA READY FOR WAR!!!

You are free to share
Forwarded as received

I was in conversation with a United Nation official yesterday and we were talking about the acquisition of warships by ethnic militant Tompolo, in a country were our brave soldiers are being starved off equipment. He told me point blank that in every major conflict he has assessed or being involved in as a UN official it all started with one fellow choosing to ARM an ETHNIC MILITIA as against the national army of the country, sometimes deliberately depleting the army before the violence starts.

I first got reports of Niger Delta militant Asari Dokubo buying military helicopters and hardware from diplomatic intelligence sources about 2 years ago. Shortly after that he was arrested in Benin Republic but released upon the intervention of our government. What I can see is very clear, JONATHAN is leading an effort to create an alternate military force in the Niger Delta to force the hands of the generality of NIGERIANS when the time comes. How else can one explain Tompolo a man once declared wanted for killing our soldiers now effectively taking over the duties of our navy?

Where is all the money coming from? Do you think the arms are being bought for boat parade or regatta? No they are to kill NIGERIANS.

JONATHAN has never been able to rise to fill the position of the NIGERIAN Presidency, he acts like an ethnic war lord and at the rate he is going he is going to push us into the path of Liberian and Sierra Leone, while silly people are busy cheering him on.

I have taken it upon myself to write a letter of complaint and warning to the United Nations Secretary General to pay attention to what JONATHAN and his cohorts are doing in Nigeria, seemingly pushing the country closer to a violent ethnic crisis.

This crisis would consume the entire African continent if not checked.

This morning I received this in my in box, and I couldn't help but shudder that we are dealing with really devious human beings who have mistakenly found themselves in power. Their attitude and body language says it all:

"I'm really amused that we are all screaming murder years after the deed was done? It's well over 3 years that I have been screaming the overall plans and strategies of the south-south vs the behemoth Nigeria, i.e, their eventual emancipation! For the sake of many who have not read or few who have taken these posts as scare mongering by Oyenuga Lanre Paul, I'll re summarise them here. To free their region of the shackles of endless exploitation and domination by the rest of Nigeria, the south-south decided as follow:

1). Cripple the Nigerian Army's capacities to engage in sustained warfare: thus the encouragement of BH and decimation of the army's hardware and personnel.

2). Ensure Nigeria is economically destitute and unable to spend on warfare: thus the unprecedented looting of the treasury, resulting in our current vulnerability. Okonjo Iweala is not 'coordinating' for nothing.

3). Is the military takeover of our coastal waters by the south-south, which is what the coastal waterways protection contract with Government Tompolo was designed to guarantee. Let no one be deceived, less than 0.5% of our military, (including naval and air force) personnel can swim in an 8 foot deep pool, not to mention a river or coastal waters. Thus, how do you engage these toughened militia in their coastal waters, when we couldn't tackle BH in plain view?

4th). Is the intense frustrations of the oil producing companies by the south southerners nouveau-riche to hand over the onshore production bases to them by forced sale or outright disruption of their operations. As we chat here, 70% of the onshore operations have been sold off by the major players like shell, Mobil, etc.

As well as the training of ex militants as pilots under amnesty Anyone doubting my claims of warning about these can browse through my timeline.

IF THE SOUTH-SOUTH PULLS OUT TODAY, WE ARE SITTING DUCKS! The South-East are tagging along with the south-south, for obvious reasons and I don't blame them!

The choice of Buhari is due to these calculations by our rulers in the South-West and the core North. Unless I'm paranoid, we have a scary situation ahead. I moved my family out as far back as 2011, based on this concerns.

GEJ will very likely lose the elections in 2015, but the south-south will keep their oil. Can we afford a war with a region sitting on oil? Do we have a military capable of delivering our goal? Would it not be cheaper to renegotiate our federation?

Or, would it be another Rehoboamic declaration of "To your tents o Israel"? GEJ ain't clueless, he's merely troubled by the plots he's a key player in?

Viva Le Nigeria'.."!

Please switch on your moral compass at this point and condemn all acts of politically induced violence. That you seek to make political capital out of every incident no matter how tragic is highly regretable. If there is one thing I absolutely hate is gross irresponsibility and buck passing.

This unfortunate incident happened at an APC rally in a 16 year old APC controlled state for a APC controlled elective position. If the present state government cannot (according to you) create the jobs to save that young man's life, the future one should not be nailing his coffin by throwing financial inducements (bribes) at him.

This is not good governance. And it is not different, not a 'change' from the way the PDP does things. Your belief is that job creation is a Federal responsibility only. Tell me what is State responsibility then. To throw campaign money at people.

You my friend had better turn on your moral compass and condemn ALL acts of needless violence and hedious corruption.
