My I wish this rare gem a very happy Birthday and many more returns. May God continue to keep you in grace and good health in Jesus name, Amen.

Op, you are just generalizing. All depends on the source of water you use in the test. Like the borehole stuff, if you are testing using those from Lagos, in fact, acid level suppose to exceed 100 (if all the pH level get to that or you simply extend it, sha!)

The stream in my village remains the best to any other source of water.

But it is laughable that with the myriads of problems plaguing the APC, her Chairman could only vilify PDP rather than answering to questions begging for his attention.

Well, the South East is known for being self enemies. They most time prefer aliens to brothers. But I think the youth can take it up, if they will.

So saraki could not still coin a subhead to make his own dollars? Guy it has gone beyond this. 2019 campaign should be issue base. Tell us what Buhari has done in the last 3years and what his plans are for the next 4 if given the mandate?

Blaming or tagging others corrupt will no longer holds bar as Nigerians have now gotten a whims of what it is - mere propaganda

Nigeria matter don tire me o! I don;t even know what to believe again. Today here tomorrow there, Today this tomorrow that.

This pictures are all over the net(thanks to google). I needed to see a rebuttal, probably pictorial but all is words seasoned with name calling and insult.

I can't imagine sharing a nationality with a one so daft in idea and knowledge. It is sad but can't blame God because I am meant for a purpose; may be to tutor you.

Sir, I will first admonished you to tow the path of civility. Attack issues not the messenger. By so doing you must have given your mind a chance to learn than allowing hatred, insult, and foolishness to ruin your already battered life.

Sir, I am surprised that most of the times people tried to equate progress with the highly placed. No! All fingers were not meant to be equall. Dangote was Dangote and I am who I am. Go and read more on Dangote and how it all started. If you care, and are real, noticed that rice farming, especially on commercial basis is capital intensive. Where are the loans coming from?

Besides, do you read the report by Bloomberg? Where are the rice that Audu Ogbeh claimed has lead to the closure of milling facilities in Thailand? Please for God's sake be yourself. Do not sell your conscience for a peanut.

blacknp:
If they ban total importation of rice you would be the one shouting President Buhari wants to kill us,ordinary ban on rice importation through land you ungrateful people were shouting the Governments wants to kill us,go and enter rice cultivation there is room to be a billionaire,lazy man stop waiting for Government,see what Aliko Dangote did with cement that made him the richest black man in the world.

Was it not you that ate the imported rice?then you turn around and blame the President,why did you not eat made in Nigeria rice to patronize the local industry?the traits of a lazy man. Nigeria is an emerging economy more rice is been imported more rice is been produced locally,the largest in Nigeria’s history,so why all the shout about the Bloomberg report?

Maybe you have forgotten you are in Nigeria be waiting for pdp to come and give you cheap imported rice. Traitor.

NwaAmaikpe:




Buhari is really working on propaganda.

I differ with you on this. The problem this administration had was that they abandoned the NDE whose mandate was job creation through their different programmes for both graduates and non-graduates. I can authoritatively tell you that those guys were doing great jobs until 2015 when they were sent on relegation by the Buhari government. Since then, no single programme was carried out in all the key areas of the Directorate, even their salaries were not forthcoming regularly.

They are among the few Directorates that live their mandate.

To be honest, if you can go and register in any of their programmes at the Federal Secretariat of any State, (provided you are residing there), you will be carried along.

For the 180,000 for the CBN anchor borrowing, the number will be far lower since on their part the CBN cannot take all that. I am not a staff there but I know much about them.

That is because he only wants to make a mountain out of a mold. Na Saraki be him problem.

Lies can travel billion miles but it takes a snap for the truth to overtake

Guy, don't think I am away from the topic. Saraki is not the author of the "bribery scandal". If worse comes to worst, he will merely present publications that has not been refuted by the same Oshiomhole.

Friend01:
The story is about Saraki accusing Oshiomhole not SR churning out evidences to nail Oshiomhole.
Remain on the topic.
And I keep wondering how some of your reason.
You leave the topic being discussed and create a diversion with something else maybe somehow connected to the topic and you think it's relevant because you said something on Nairaland.
SMH.

Bros this people lies from both sides of the mouth. I can see why Lai Mohammed has relaxed because his trainees has all graduated are are doing exceedingly great.

There are more questions than answers to the Buhari-Jubrin issue. How I wish they could allow him retire well in 2019 than to allow the truth be revealed. It will be disastrous. It will affect Nigeria as a nation.

See promotion! 18mil just like that

Oshiomhole is only looking for soft spot. Why must he go for Saraki when Sahara Reporters are even churning out data about him in the scandal.

If it interest Oshiomhole, he should let sleeping dog lies because Sahara Reporters is looking for all available details in order to repeat Premium Times feat over Adeosun. That one piece of work has positioned PT on a world map.So SR is working to get there.

Who will be their carrier, Oshiomhole, Ganduje or . . . ?

Lauretta is one of the greatest mistakes/blunders that Buhari committed that will send him back to Daura in 2019.

Hmmm

I bet whoever may care that NBS will be cash-starved since their stats could not accommodate the lies and propaganda that this government is known and stand for.

For now, go and confirm, only Ministries of Information, Justice and their agencies are fully funded.

AT A GLANCE: The DSS Breakdown Of How Politicians 'Bribed' Oshiomhole In Dollars
At a glance, below, is a table showing those names confirmed by SaharaReporters to have been listed by the DSS report as paying or attempting to pay bribes, in millions or hundreds of thousands, to Oshiomhole and his cronies.

BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORK. NOV 15, 2018


As exclusively reported by SaharaReporters on Thursday, the Department of State Services (DSS) has written to President Muhammadu Buhari, asking him to prosecute Adams Oshiomhole, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), for allegedly receiving at least $55million in relation to the nationwide primaries of the party.

Asides the presidency, the DSS also forwarded its findings to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

“Total $55 million is what Adams is alleged to have received. Some party chieftains claim it is $80 million,” a source aware of the contents of the report had told SaharaReporters.

“Adamu was the collection coordinator,” said the source. “Hope Uzodinma, the APC governorship candidate in Imo State, gave $3 million; Rochas Okorocha, Governor of the state, offered $500,000 but it was rejected; Dapo Abiodun, the APC candidate in Ogun State, paid $5 million. The DSS also said some of the money was paid into Oshiomhole's niece’s account.”

[b]Olodo,was there crisis in PDP when akpabio defected udom will be sent packing come 2019[/quote]Just compare the two bold words and be ashame (if at all you still have a drop of conscience).

Now, i would have told you the truth but since you are not from Akwa Ibom, I'll keep it for the wonderful sons and daughters of the State. Udom is holding the trust of the people till 2023

Have you read that the sacked Lawmaker was the one who dragged the Hon Speaker, The AKHA, Commissioner of Police and INEC to the Court and that the case has just turned against him?

At the mention of Nigeria, even President Trump stand still.

We never carry last.

It is call "electromagnetic push" but I don forget the subject.

Yes we have. NIA. But our own hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm This is Nigeria

Dem say e don die, you na video e dey find. Bros, pity the guy who has just given his life for a lifeless being.

nepapole:

I don't believe it. I need a video to be convinced.

There is a rule that guides defection and one of it is that there must be crisis in the party for you to defect from it. So, it is incumbent on the Lawmaker to prove beyond reasonable doubt that as at the time of his defection, the party was in crisis.

But this is Nigeria, sha!

Pastorlarry:
Kangaroo court ,he will appeal it.you cannot sack anyone for defecting,why didn't court sack saraki,dino,etc

A leopard!

The National Bureau of Statistics, NBS, on Tuesday came under criticism on Twitter over its failure to release its quarterly report on the nation’s unemployment data.

The NBS, largely regarded as one of Nigeria’s most vibrant agencies of government for its timely reports, was lampooned by many social media users with some suggesting that its failure to release unemployment figures may be borne out of political considerations.

Trouble started Tuesday when a twitter user, Cheta Nwanze, a researcher and data analyst, tweeted that the agency stopped releasing the figures since the third quarter of 2017 when the nation’s unemployment figures ballooned.

Mr Nwanze, lead partner at SBM Intelligence, a research outfit, also suggested that the nation is worse off since the last figures were released.

“These are facts: Under this government, Nigeria’s economy has shrunk,” Mr Nwanze tweeted via his handle @Chxta. “Under this government, unemployment has doubled from 9.9% in mid 2015 to 18.8% in Q3 2017. Since then, no more unemployment reports. They will try to distract you, but eye on the ball. We are worse off.”

The tweet would soon go viral, drawing scathing remarks and criticisms among Nigerians on twitter and other social media platforms.

In his response, a twitter user tweeting via @BBoason suggested that the reports would be released once the federal government completes its ongoing Trader Moni cash transfer to Nigerian petty traders, ostensibly to generate positive results.

“We dare not publish our quarterly #Unemployment Report,” he tweeted. “By the time Trader Moni is well circulated, you will see the millions of new jobs figures that would be rolled out.”

But in a swift reaction, Yemi Kale, the nation’s Statistician-General and head of the NBS, said the agency’s failure to release unemployment figures had nothing to do with politics. Mr Kale, tweeting via his verified handle @sgyemikale, explained that the agency has failed to release unemployment data because it has been unable to access budgetary releases.

“U guys need to stop this. I know it’s election time but I’ve said this repeatedly,” he tweeted. “Nobody is calling me to manipulate any data or not to release any data. The work can’t be completed due to budgetary releases. It’s not hard to confirm when last we got data funding and how much.”



The last time the NBS released data on the nation’s unemployment status was in December 2017.

The report, detailing the nation’s unemployment figures for Q3 2017, showed that Nigeria’s unemployment rate worsened from 16.2 percent in the second quarter of 2017 to 18.8 percent in the third quarter of the year.

The report also showed that the number of people within the labour force who were unemployed increased from 13.6 million in the second quarter of the year to 15.9 million in the third quarter of same year, with more than two million people unemployed within the period.

Similarly, the number of underemployed increased from 17.7 million in the second quarter to 18.0 million in Q3 2017. Data released by the NBS also revealed that the rise in the rate was occasioned by the economic recession that saw the nation’s growth decelerate until September 2017 when Nigeria finally exited recession.

In the absence of verifiable data, analysts say the figures may have worsened even as the government struggles to reposition the nation on the path of economic recovery and sustained growth.

As the nation moves toward another election season, it is generally expected that such data will be used as weapons of campaign and voter inducement by government handlers and members of the opposition––depending on how favourable it is to either parties’ campaign agenda. The same sentiment was expressed by many twitter users Tuesday, prompting suggestions that the NBS may have been compelled not to release the figures.

But the agency dismissed such insinuations, saying it has generally not released reports in a while.

In a separate response to another twitter user on the same thread Tuesday, the NBS via its verified handle @nigerianstat said it has not released unemployment data and other relevant reports because it has not received funds for research like other agencies of government.

“The same reason why if u check we haven’t released any data in a while,” the bureau said in response to the question on why its unemployment data has not been released since Q3 2017. “We haven’t received funds like many other MDAs (Ministries, Departments and Agencies).”

This is an old game. You cannot keep blaming the other man for over 3years. This approach to governance is becoming stale and Nigerians are damn tired of it.

Anything other thing to preoccupy us is welcome and not blame GEJ

Hahahahah Bros, even JAMB no fit ask that kind question o! e don big pass me o. May be the next post will know the answer

I talk am! say the person below me go know the answer

How will they not? Even that number is very very low. The right figure is 80m that lives in abject poverty.

How will they not suffer when the thought about the next meal, school fee, occupies over 18 of the 24hours of the day. Nigerians are driven mad by the burden of the present, the regrets of their action in 2015 and the fear of repeating the same mistake in 2019.

This is absurd! If what Nigerians are passing through since 2015 is termed "best" then better we stick to the "worst".
