PDP is very predictable with its victim mentality! A useless party that brought sixteen years of pains, sorrows and sufferings on Nigerians.

How has Dokpesi been pronounced guilty by being arrested by EFCC?

Even, kids know that arresting suspects comes before prosecution. And so far, not a single one of those arrested has been held beyond the time limit stipulated by the nation's law. So, where is the lawlessness or persecution you cry of?

PDP and its sympathizers should understand that crying wolves and releasing statements calling on international community will not help them a bit. Not when available evidences do not prove anything against the government.

To be sincere, some of us are even angry that the nation's laws are preventing PMB/DSS/EFCC/ICPC from packing all the Dasukis, Yugudas, Bafarawas, Dokpesis, Oritsejafors, Diezanis and locking them up in jail for as long as necessary. They all trampled upon our constitution in sabotaging the economy and security of the country, yet they expect the same law to protect them from being brought to justice!

I wish Buhari was a military head of state as we speak.

APC meant those touts/agberos that helped them snatch ballot boxes. They hav given Lagos agberos a federal allowance. Rubbish!

Seems we've been scammed?

A member of Islamic militant, popularly called Boko Haram was arrested today, Tuesday, along Damboa road by members of the Civilian JTF while attempting to detonate an improvised Explosive Device (IED) at a crowded fuel station where hundreds of people were waiting to buy fuel.

Garba Hussaini, a pump attendant, who spoke with DAILY POST in Maiduguri said, “Today, we are very lucky because there are over 500 people with hundreds of cars waiting for fuel when the sect member approach the crowd with 5 litres gallon, pretending to have come to buy fuel.”

According to him, when one of the boys controlling the crowd tried to prevent him from entering with the gallon, he got angry and remove a knife, attempting to stab the boy. “In the process, a member of the Civilian JTF noticed that, bomb was tied round him and he quickly grabbed him before he made any attempt to detonate it,” he added.


When Our Correspondent arrived at the filling Station, there was obvious fear and shock on the faces of people waiting on the queue. The manager of the station who declined comment also asked the pump attendants to stop selling even as some people were following and begging him to sell the product to them.

Speaking with one of the buyers on the queue, who identify himself as Mallam Sani, he said, ” I did not know what happen. I only saw people running and the Civilian JTF grabbed somebody. They carried him inside Keke Napep and head to town, later I heard that, he was Boko Haram with bomb trying to kill people. Actually, I don’t know why fuel should be scarce in the first place when we have a competent president, who is also the petroleum minister. If this Boko Haram had succeeded, hundreds of people would have gone with him.”

Another Mohammed Umar told Our Correspondent that, immediately the man came, they started suspecting him, then he went back and brought a gallon. “A lot of people were trying to bribe their way in to have the fuel and the crowd was concentrated around the pumps. This man just pushed one of the boys controlling the crowd from outside and was going in when the boy held his hand, trying to stop him, and the man drew a dagger. We suddenly saw one of the JTFs grabbed the man from behind.

“We did not hear what he was saying until we heard bomb! Bomb!! Then everybody began to run away. They said, he was carrying bomb. For me, I took to my heels when I saw people running. I don’t associate myself with crowd since Boko Haram started bombing people. But this one would have been another catastrophe,” he said.

A credible news medium just reported that officials of the immediate past administration spend a whopping $2.1billion without budgetary allocation and all you can do is call it manufactured evidence. Have you benefited anything whatsoever from these people that you are quick to defend them no matter the allegation? Some of you wailers are just incredible.



Dasuki and GEJ almost ruined the country. Both of them should be prosecuted for these daylight robbery. Returning the looted funds won't be enough. They must face the full wrath of the law.

PapaBrowne:
An average of $245,000 per day minus presidential jet. Hmmm.

And the president has spent about 45 days offshore.

Well, some Mathematics.

$245,000 x 45days + (jet money) = $11 million + jet money

In naira= $11 million x 248 = N2.73 billion + Jet money.

If simple things like Taxi,Accommodation and Feeding would cost 2.73 billion, it would be safe to assume that JET MONEY would cost 3 times that amount. So JET MONEY would be equal to N2.8 Billion x 3= N8.2 Billion.

So Total on Junketing = N2.8 Billion +8.2 Billion= N11 Billion.



Now, 5 things N11 Billion would have done for Nigerians.

1)It would pay 600,000 Nigerian Workers minimum wage at 18,000 for 1 month.

2)It will buy 126 million litres of fuel at 87 Naira per litre. That's enough fuel for 10 days for 1 million cars if they are given 12 litres per day.

3)It would buy 3,500 Tractors at 3 Million Naira per tractor putting almost 100 tractors in every state definitely leading to an Agro revolution.

Nice observation . After your post I decided to watch d video. This is the height of propaganda, during all their sprayin of bullets, they never showed their enemy position, no return fire, nothing to show they were in battle. It was more like a show onus le flexing. At the end in the night, hours after the show of muscle, they showed just like 3 bodies of dead Nigerian soldiers.

Someone up there mentioned bodies of Nigerian soldiers littering the ground. Pls fear God, opposition is not outright lying. All those blaming d FG up there, this is just pure hatred from you, and it paints u as a purely illogical and selfish person. And that's d picture of the average Nigerian, a very stupid person.

It's called war for a reason, and they are called terrorist for a reason, Dasuki is being tried for a reason. Those ppl got some capabilities, but I know they are not as strong as before. December might not be a realistic target to wipe them off, we might not even be able to totally eradicate them, because of the type of strategy they use, hit and run. But we just need to avoid spreading propaganda.

Don't help the terrorists.

BABANGBALI:
is it 5.30 or 6.30?

TonyeBarcanista:
The perception is from the so-called IPOB Biafrans because I said(and still maintain) that I am NOT a party to their Biafra arrangement and my people also maintain same position. They have been bitter ever since. Not just bitter, they tried unsuccessfully to form an alliance with APC block just to get back at me but it didn't work. They tried with so much allegations but I ignored them. I will continue to ignore them!

But let me state this, my loyalty to Nigeria is primary and my reason for being in politics is for a better society that I'll be proud of and not unnecessary politicking.


I owe them no apology!!!

TonyeBarcanista:
The quashing of Sylva's case only deal a heavy blow to the so-called anti-corruption campaign. Am I happy? No! However, I'm soaked on doing a research on my next article, hence, my non participation.

Understand that there is a big difference between being an opposition to the governing party and opposition to the State(Nigeria). I belong to the former not the latter!


Like I always say even while in APC when GEJ was in power, irrespective of political inclination, Nigeria must come first. Nothing will change that.

opiaoku:
guy forget that Tonye you won't see him in this kind of thread criticising Buharian judiciary because he may displease his new masters ngeneukwenu and co.

the guy gat no balls to do things like this he's looking for a soft landing on apc
