I sympathise with J. Mahama. I wish he won.
Congratulations to nana ado!
West africa has shown how unique it is on this continent. While W-africans chose to use the ballot to kick leaders out, the north africans chose 'aggressive' revolution and we know the result.

Guy...never u compare north Africa with west Africa .

Who ballot epp ?
Those guys even in their crises are miles ahead of west Africa ..

Democracy stupid for west Africa...

koboko69:
U need to appologise to logical reasoning. What sense does it make dressing in military camouflages to present a budget to a state Assembly in a civilian dispensation. Let's call a spade a spade. What is wrong is wrong.

Bros....I only commented becus u quoted the law and not sense..

Law does not make sense at times..

And president and governors are allowed to wear military outfit to important ocassion and what is important occasion is not mentioned by the law..

Fayose won in the law court big time..

koboko69:
Permission to wear to present a state budget to the state Assembly in a democratic dispensation? Should Buhari do this, are u gonna say the same thing? Be honest with your hypocritical sef.

Lalasticlala

Lolz.. I can't believe you put up this kind of argument even after quoting the law.. It shows u are not a law practioner.. My brother.. Fayose did not break the law if u and I are to GI by the law you just quoted..

Forget about what people will say if it was done by Buhari.. Support is a choice.. Just the way those who are against fayose condemned him for wearing the military uniform...is the same way those who are against buhari will condemn him if he wears it.. But the point is...he didn't break the law.. I can't believe u put up this argument. Naaaa u just fall ma hand bro.. U need to apologize to logical reasoning ...pls

[quote author=omohayek post=51767557]But the police aren't part of the armed forces! That you perceive them to be says a great deal about how the lines between police and the military have been blurred in Nigeria by their repeated misuse over the years. Policemen aren't soldiers, and soldiers have no right to act as if they were policemen when they're dealing with civilians; the all too common sight of soldiers "arresting" ordinary people is nothing more than thuggery.[/quotel]

Yes...police not part of the arm forces but a very important institution in internal security matters...the most important institution in internal security matters. That is why u see IGP attending arm forces security meetings headed by the president and other arm forces chiefs..... All points u made are valid...yes but in a sensitive country like Nigeria...not even the national assembly will consider relinquishing such power from the president.. He controls the police and the arm forces.. And he orders them..

Grundig:
Guys read. Read. read.

This is actually laudable. The presidency shouldn't have sweeping powers. Like someone opined above. I pray they also take away the appointment of IGP from the presidency. Like the NJC/CJN the most senior in rank should automatically take over.

Hahahahahahaha.. That of IGP can never happen.. Not in Nigeria..

The powers of the president lies as the commander in chief of the arm forces.. .. He can never allow such power to be cut off or reduce and taking away the appointment and loyalty of the IGP is one of such powers the president will never do..

Look here young man, you better shut up!

Commend good doing when you see it, this recruitment had a large degree of fairness and needs commendation and all you could come up with is this pile of gibberish!

My colleague told me how his kid bro saw his name and they all thought he was joking because their family knows no one in the police, not even a constable.

No one is saying Nigeria is now free from employment corruption, we are still far from that and a lot of work needs to be done but when good is done, please commend it, its surprising how some dumb Nigerian like you is bringing up lame theories about this, like seriously do you prefer them to hire without merit? Now when they hire based on merit you are still complaining and giving pathetic theories, how appalling I must say!

But I want u to know that in many states...the ASP and Inspector positions were fully robbed..

The constable and specialist positions were a bit fair.. I know what I'm saying..

But I want u to know that in many states...the ASP and Inspector positions were fully robbed.. The cadet ASP and Inspector positions were no go area.. It doesn't mean few lucky ones didn't get it...but over 95% of that position was based on Godfatherism.. And since rge recruitment for both positions for cadet ASp and inspector didn't go thru the interview stage..and medical stage..that was when I knew something fishy will surely happen..in some states like Abia..aptitute test questions leacked before they wrote the exam around 11 pm in the mid night...same with some other sates.. The interview and medicals would av helped in the selection process but due to magu magu wey dey naija..it was dropped...all the same..from the beginning, the cadet ASP and inspector have always been the major interest of the elite.. Only God can hand pick a person without connection in that position..

The constable and specialist positions were a bit fair.. I know what I'm saying..

I am still trying to grab the rational behind the planned increment based on their submission that an unhealthy competition is brewing among the telecom companies. The telecoms companies started the price reductions, they weren't forced. they are not complaining. NCC is the one feeling pained. Price of our data is still very high compared to what others get. We pay for everything voice, data and SMS not free value added service. Yet our numbers are getting out for marketing purposes.
Do they even know the contribution access to the internet to the ICT sector and hence the GDP? Stifle that access and more business and innovations will be aborted. Student will suffer in carrying out their project.
WALAHI THESE MEN ARE BRAIN DEAD AND LIVING IN THE STONE AGE PERIOD!!!

Bros...wit the way I dey vex for Nigeria as a country.. If I carry that anger enter street protest.. I fit blow up person.. I hate this country...that makes life difficult for us. Why? Is it a crime to be a Nigerian?

That submission they gave is total rubbish and I pray we don't sleep on this one again.. We must not accept it. No light..fuel is expensive.. Tax here and there..no better road.. Even data is still expensive..

I survive mainly with the help of internet. It seems this govt doesn't know how internet has helped to reduce unemployment and how it is still reducing it day by day. If there is anything that should be cheap in Nigeria...that should be internet...

brodalikeme:
I've decided not to sit and fold my hands doing nothing about this planned data hike, I will be writing a petition to the national assembly. it is very wrong for us to sit down and have this kind of counter-productive policy thrown at us. They are complaining of unhealthy completions, I bet they are all still making profits. This is beyond social media or profit making. The thought alone is satanic and barbaric. Nothing has brought about more creative, innovation and rapid development like the internet, any person/country thinking of depriving its citizenry access to if belong to the stone age.

Nobody should sit down and be quiet, lets all stand up and be counted!

Bros... I dey with u.. if NCC should get away with this.. then we are finished in this country.. we should not allow them get away with this.. If they try am.. we should storm national assembly and NCC head quarters and protest and attract world media.. shame on this agencies.. instead of making things cheaper.. they are making it expensive.. We no go greee.. it is time to show this guys that we are still alive and active.. and this should start it for us all in Nigeria.. i mean, to begin attack govt policies in one voice..

NOETHNICITY:
I'm sick and tired of hearing every tom, dick and harry scream about bad policies without ever being man enough to highlight these bad policies. Not defending PMB bt there is a dearth of knowledge and understnding amongst the populace about what the problems bedevelling the country re and so they don't even know the solutions. Everybdy is jus ranting emotions.
No sound and proper dissecting of the probs.
I've criticised PMB on a number of occasions wen I feel he isn't doin well enough to get us out of this hellhole. I expected a more massively vigorous approach to agriculture.
There is no amount of policy that will make us nt to suffer low oil prices. For pple with deep understanding of economic metrix these sufferings er not unexpected.
I don't criticise because every tom and harry is criticising. Pple criticise because its easy to do so.
The criticise about every of govt action.
They ban importation of vehicles tru land border, they criticise. They criticise jus anything.
U talk about bad policies, what re the policies?
Posterity will pardon a leader if he makes the wrong decision, bt it will never pardon him for nt taking a dcision at all.

The heavy tax bro...is one of them.. Banning is allowed and good but needs to be taken wit causion and gradually done.. Systematically..

NOETHNICITY:
Neither am I a beneficiary of govt patronage. I was only responding to ur comment and nt the original post.
Go tru my post uu mentioned and show me were I talked about GEJ, no where. However now that u ve reminded us about him not a bad tin either.
Everyday u troll the internet peddling falsehood by taking advantage of the bad economy to drum home ur point about PMB being a bad leader worse than GEJ.
As unimpressive as PMB is he is nt responsible for Nig importing fuel a factor responsible for the depletion of our FR. A depleted FR results in high ER.
PMB is nt the one responsible for nig being an import dependent nation and mono-economy depending only on oil.
Diversifying the economy requires time and money and not any miracle as expected by pple like u.

U think I av time to be doing internet war? Bro...I don't av such time.. Nothing concern me with politicians.. I strongly attacked GEJ during his time... I also wrote article on ma blog showing support for buhari in areas I feel he is doing well...and will always attack him when I see news about his bad leadership..

And that is what every sane person should do... There was a thread about his use of tax in this hard times and people like u jumped the topic and started talking about GEJ.. Does that make sense bro?

Be a man enough and condemn buhari when he gets it wrong and praise him when he gets it right..

As for responsibility.. He will and must accept responsibility becus he saw the country bad and still contested .. Every leader accepts responsibility even for things he didn't cause .

If only you can be nice enough...u will know that buhari added to the current problem.. Even the president of African development bank hinted on this...when he talked about some policies that are not healthy in the forex market...but u know na...he was talking in front of the media...he couldn't av made it clearer...but wise ones can grab the message...he even pleaded that they are worked on..

Buhari didn't cause oil to fall but he has made recession grow faster ... He has not done very well so far..

In as much as I didn't vote for any body...I av always been a neutral person...I only want good governance... I showed support for buhari and will always condemn him wen he is getting it bad..

amanikondo:
But, did Jonathan neglect the region? It is a simple question.

Does it matter...

Did u elect buhari to continue the so called failed things GEJ did?

Why are we like this in this country?

Na wa o.. Make una forget GEJ...buhari was elected to make things better...jareee if he can't..he would av allowed GEJ to continue his bad things na

me69:
where do you get your fruits and vegetables and your meat?

The places those things are gotten more..they still enjoy federal govt investments... Have some FG agencies...with their headquarters in their region..

They still enjoy quota system that has favoured them more..

I thought u said ...south east don't produce anything..

NOETHNICITY:
whenever I read ur posts I smell hypocrisy.
It is ok to expect Buhari to turn the nations economic fortunes around bt, realistically, I neva expected the turn around to be sudden and immediate, becos we lack the necessary structures needed for such a transformation.
It took Japan 30 gud years after the 2nd world war to explore and exhaust their internal capacities b4 emerging to bcome the economic giant that they re today.
Buhari needs time, money and luck to succeed in this hard times of low oil price, which unfortunately is undeniably tied to Nigeria's economic outlook.

Well..u are free to think of ma post as u like..I gain nothing from politicians and they have not helped me in anyway.. I mean..wen u see bad thing about Buhari...condemn it and when u see good thing...praise it..

There were times I praised Buhari's corruption war..not that he is doing it well..but the fact he is doing it is giving me joy and the fact that wen he leaves power...those who worked wit him may also face same music gives me hope..

But wen he is doing badly...pls..condemn except u are in his pay role.. Bro..I am not a supporter of any polictivian...becus..I don't benefit anything from them..

The thread about what he did is bad, the best u can do is to condemn it and not to look for GEJ.. GEJ is gone and out of leadership.. No need calling his name..

Onechancearmy:

Well..if u think I'm stupid...I advise u simply google verbal abuse at homes and see articles , opinions on the topic..

Guess you will be shocked.. Will it be nice for any couple to verbally abuse the other..?

If u still think I'm stupid..pls..do and google it and read it up..

Onechancearmy:
Real men NEVER raise their fists against women. Rest In Peace, but her murderer must be brought to justice so that something positive will emerge from this sorrowful incident and to serve as a lesson to other half-men who use violence against women.

Real women don't talk to their fellow humans any how..


We also forget that we can kill with our tongue and bible condemned..it..

I'm not suppprting any guy beating up a lady...but I think we dwell too much on hitting ...we should also dwell more on verbal abuse...becus...people die becus of it too

DelGardo:
Wailers and revisionism.

When you people finish crying please try to remember that N65 ATM charge was introduced by Emefiele upon his appointment under your hero, the ineffectual one.
Nwa bye...

First of all...bro...look me well.. Check my updates.. I am not a pro APC or PDP...or Buhari or GEJ.. Some people who followed my Facebook page thought I hated GEJ during his time..

But Mr..pls.. Is there anything wrong wit u? Like are u happy with the current govt? There is problem if u support buhari...pls...is ur right...but do that on threads where he is working well not on negative threads like this..

Only a mad man still supports Buhari.. Yes..we av accepted that GEJ destroyed Nigeria...okay..but Nigerians voted buhari na to correct things...but he is making life hard..

My brother...life is becoming extremely hard in Nigeria..

Why all these tax here and there? The 65 naira withdrawal charges was not initiated under GEJ...pls.. And it is done after ur third withdrawal from another bank within a month...but sadly...banks use it any how..even on ur first withdrawal..

Pls.. What makes u a candid person is when u call good good and call bad bad... buhari is getting it all wrong..

Hunger has increased and it is almost two years he took over power..

Pls na..be reasonable small..address the issue on ground and forget GEJ. I tire for una o

me69:
my friend answer the question. What do u manufacture that other part of the country does not? all those goods you are importing from outside no be manufacturing oooo

And I said my friend..why are people from south west and north...south south..buy goods from Onitsha and Aba..?

I said it...u never travel...baba..u never travel at all

me69:
Pls tell us what you manufacture in the east that we don't have in other part of the country. Most Igbo traders go outside the country to import things to sell to Nigerians. You don't do shit to our economy. You dont produce anything. You are just putting pressure on our scarce dollar reserve that should go to manufacturers in the country

U must be a kid...I guess... U juat typed something...I'm sure u av never traveled outside ur region...


My guy...u are talking to a person ...as young as I am..I av traveled to all the regions in Nigeria...at least one or two states per region..

If u av been to onistcha and Aba first hand..I mean..u av the spirit of adventure in u and u travel there to meet producers and manufacters first hand...u woundt av type this shit..

I'm guessing u are from the west...becus..they are the least travelled within naija..

An Hausa man will hardly type this...becus..most of them travel to south east to buy goods.. Lolz...

If u knoq number of people traveling to onitcha and aba to buy goods...u will be shocked..

I was in Ibadan few months back..I went to eat at a restaurant.. The woman got talking with me...and she spoke Igbo...she is Yoruba..and I was shocked at the clearness of her Ibo...she said...for more than 10 years...she regularly traveled to Aba and Onitsha to buy goods she sold in Ibadan..from her business...she was able to establish the big restaurant ..


Meet Hausa men who buy goods down there...they will tell u... Yes..there are imported goods..but there are so many first hand manufactured goods made from south east .

Like I said before...if u can cross river Niger..u will not type that u just did..and I'm sure u are still young...I'm young too but I av traveled and I am curious..

Take it or leave it...those guys are fucking industrious..

The land of Igbo can't be enough for the Igbos in business.. I was shocked to find out that in many Yoruba states..like Ibada...some markets are fully dominated by Igbo business men and women..

While in south east...igbos still dominate their markets.


It tells u one thing...those guys are fucking industrious ..

Do u know why civil service jobs are not all that attractive in south east? The people prefer to manufacture and do business...this is why it looks as if their governors can pay salaries..or are working...no..unlike the other parts of Nigeria where govt jobs are kings...making it difficult for governors of such regions to meet up with salary issues..

My guy girl friend is from bayelsa state..do u know she buys her finished products from Aba? She graduated few years ago and she went into trading...she has contacts of manufacturers of her products in aba..


Do u knoq how many people travel from Port Hacout to Aba to buy finished products every day? Abi u sabi people who travel from Akwa ibom to Aba to buy made in Aba products..my guy...my ex class mate in the unn...his parents have been buying and selling made in aba products for more than 15 years now..

Abi...u think sey...igbos in Aba will just wake up...travel to Lagos..import goods and sell to people who travel from south south...south west and north? Does that make sense to u?

All these guys wey dey travel from Ibadan go onitsha no sabi Lagos abi? My guy...I dey travel a lot..baba..make u travel and learn , okay..

ayindejimmy:
Please, kindly mention one policy that's inimical to the SE that's not inimical to other parts of Nigeria.
You ppl are just too arrogant, if the Igbo race were to be white your racism will be the worst.
You all go around thinking and feeling you contribute to Nigeria more than any other ethnic.
Indead condemning a statement aimed at eliciting hatred and intolerance you wanna buttress it.

sight at least three federal govt institution that has it headquarter in south east..

A region well known for vibrant local production.. tell me why seaports, those in Onitsha and calabar...why FG is shying away from it. Tell me why railway project is so hard to link the region..

Tell me why it took GEJ to look at enugu airport...Nigeria knows too well that the region produces a lot though.. what about federal govt roads?

Well.. there is no need for u and i to argue bro.. u dont even know me.. if im igbo or not,... our sentiment will never allow us to speak the truth.

And make i warn u.. stop believing there is life in Nairaland.. in the real life.. igbos and their counterparts relate well.. I mean other ethnic groups..

There are so many hauasa communities in south east and many yoruba communities in south east.. igbos and yorubas they ball together, igbos and hausas dey ball wella... same with igbos and middle belt and south south.. na only poor men carry ethnic wahala for head..


so.. forget all these 'u people this, u people that'. from ur speech.. u so much hate igbos.. my brother.. na for only nairaland this ur hatred dey manifest.. i dont ur group.. but nigerians dont hate themselves like that.. na only poor men carry ethnic wahala for head..

RockHard:
Yeah, and yet since independence no single SE state is even mentioned among the top 5 economic contributors in Nigeria alone, not to talk of Africa. Doesn't charity begin at home again?? I think what you meant to say is that Nigeria will become the drug-trafficking capital of the world within 5 years. Sometimes I wonder the kind of egbo some of you smoke before typing. lol

I didnt want to comment on this thread but I will becus of what u typed.. now.. if u understand the powers of the federal government in the current structure of nigeria.. u will understand why many states are backward..

I know u will mention lagos.. lolz.. Lagos is far ahead of states in Nigeria becus no state in Nigeria enjoys the economic attention the state enjoys... and states around Lagos suppose to dey shine but that is not the case..

Lagos enjoyed many decades of federal govt attention..and british attention.. No sea port in south east or proper rail link and u want the region to develop..

The men run to lagos to do business and contribute a lot to lagos's internally generated revenue.. well... Nigeria has a whole is yet to make any development.. I hope u understand my point and not allow sentiment to wipe off reality from u.. U are talking about a region that has not really enjoyed federal govt intervention for decades.. no federal govt institutions that can attract investors.. at least u av some federal govt institutions having their headquaters in the north, south but u cant find any in south east.. I cant believe south east is even able to stand till date.. with the policies against that region.. most regions cant survive it...

Yet.. poverty level is low there.. becus of individual hustle..

gocac:
Nigerians forget easily, pls what exactly did nigeria signed with chinawhat has happened ever since they signed?? Everyday sign sign! Now your happy... What can nigeria really get from moroco?

Your last question is why I'm replying u! Maybe becus u feel Morocco is an African country.. Babe...that country has gone far in many fields.. European countries sign deals with them..in solar technology...agriculture and marine technology...morocco is world class..

NOETHNICITY:
Ok, let me ask a simple question here.
Do u believe militants are being used to distabilize PMB govt?

Yes na...abi who in normal sense will be causing pains for his country people..? Same way boko haram distracted GEJ and made corrupt people to take advantage of the situation..

My bro...politicians are wicked and greedy..

NOETHNICITY:
Ur lies, ignorance and hypocrisy is alarming.
Come out full time and admit hu u're. Don't be scared.

I want to know where I'm lying o?

Like GEJ was not abused verbally ?

Like Buhari showed support to GEJ when he was fighting BOKO haram? Abi no be buhari dey blab up and down for pages of news pages those days?

Abi boko haram was not used to distract and distabilize GEJ's regime?

Abi boko haram wasn't tool in the hands of few individuals who never knew it would get out of hand?

Abi GEJ wasn't confused about the whole thing as he seeked for solution...there by throwing money here and there which fell into wrong hands?

My brother...abeg...tell me where I'm lying? I won repent

U are the one who is ignorant to see that APC and the north have started a bitter type of politics..where groups are used to distract and distabilize a govt...u can see how Buhari dey enjoy militants Naaa...lolz my problem be sey...e dey affect all of us...especially the masses

CoolFreeday:
I luv this meeting. Great one from the south east rulers. There is no way the President will not look into their request, this is how things ought to be, not sponsoring boys, criticising destructively and talk anyhow.

But it was good during GEJ era, right?

You people seems to forget the impact of Boko Haram in GEJ's administration... you people cant link the corruption to that evil set up by some power drunk fellows who sponsored BOKO haram in order to make GEJ incompetent.. a civilian leader who was faced with severe national security threat, had no other choice but to listen to suggestions made by those who claimed they had ideas that can end the problem...

A lot of money was spent openly and secretly in order to fight those sponsored boys... same people talking about constructive reasoning and dialogue now...never talked about that during GEJ's nightmare of boko haram..

This country is a joke and we are not sincere to ourselves.. APC took advantage of few individuals who were mad that GEJ, as a citizen of Nigeria, had the right to re-contest for presidency..they made his administration truly ungovernable..

You guys are now looking for peace... hahahahahahaahah.. my people.. na lie.. I av never suppported GEJ... if you visit my facebook page, during GEJ regime.. I attacked him too.. but I did that generally, from the context of Nigeria... but some id.ots wanted power..

How market na? You guys have introduced a very bitter politics in the country..

What militants have done to this economy.. we may never forget it.. why wont they? when some power drung Nigerians forgot the 'unity' scam they sang for many years and made life miserable for GEJ..

In as much as I av always attacked the system of government in Nigeria, both GEJ's own and others.... GEJ had better ideas and policies that would av moved Nigeria better than what your Buhari is doing now..

Any ways, I wish us all the best... i wish Nigeria, as a country.. the very best
