PoliticsRe: 2016 Budget Presentation By Buhari At Joint Session 8th Assembly by Rawani: 10:56am On Dec 22, 2015
A beautifully detailed presentation.

In the past, it was Ngozi that would have been sent by the incompetent Jonathan.

PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Blame For Fuel Scarcity Says Lai Mohammed by Rawani: 12:36am On Dec 22, 2015
Concrete is the operative word. Sure importing is now solely by the NNPC, what's being done regarding the vandalized pipelines and other erratic means of transporting products, considering we have been told there is fuel in stock?

kay29000:
Didn't you read the post?
PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Blame For Fuel Scarcity Says Lai Mohammed by Rawani: 7:43pm On Dec 21, 2015
We know this already. Jonathan was no doubt a failure, a looter and now with revelations of how he diverted funds meant to eliminate Boko Haram, a human rights violator and potential ICC candidate.

However, as Minister of Information, we are more concerned in being given concrete facts on what is being done to alleviate the problem.

It's not enough to just blame Jonathan oga Lai. Tell Kachukwu the new chief fuel importer to sit up.

Its naïve to think that the president will just let CBN gov destroy his government by bringing in anti masses policy. At policy from CBN must be approved by the presidency before being implemented.
What would you have advised the Presidency to do in this situation?

Most of those bashing me are self centred, we are talking about national interest. I've a well established business abroad to those who are calling me guard man. If our local industries are not making huge sales how would they sound good. The Nigeria of today is living outside it nationhood. We lack patriotism, anything made in Aba will not be your paramount in your purchasing list. We want to develop how can we develop when we dont appreciate our God giving talent. The policy has come stay, all those schooling abroad must come back, all those going for medicine abroad must come back, all those going tourism abroad come here we have it here.
Review yourself don't insult or names calling.
I agree with your position and i'm personally badly hit by this policy as I earn a substantial part of my income from Nigeria (lets even forget that its now N400 to a Pound). However I think you should have been more sensitive considering the touchy nature of the issue being discussed.

Overall however, this was inevitable. The ridiculous demand for forex must be controlled if the Naira is to ever recover, so I embrace this policy despite the sharp pain it brings with it. You are quite right about patronising Nigerian products because what we need right now are exports of finished goods and not imports of goods with local substitutes. The activities of some irresponsible importers that travel with over 20 ATM cards was a pointer that this policy was bound to be enacted. Its no surprise that the ban was immediate in China and UAE.

I remain glad and thankful that I voted out the cancer called Jonathan/PDP and his dollarization of the economy/looting of foreign reserves that brought about this mess in the first place.

Jonathan was a failure and has been kicked out of power forever. A Pastor and a farmer General are now your leaders, and I don't need to remind you there is nothing you can do about it except suicide.

Make your choice.

They keep pretending to not know Jonathan was a complete failure, shameless looter, and filthy human rights violator.

That man single handedly helped BH more than 10,000 foot soldiers would have done, by diverting funds meant to destroy them to his campaign.

terrorism - /ˈtɛrərɪzəm/
noun
1. the unofficial or unauthorized use of violence and
intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.



Which one did Kanu do? Did he use violence or intimidation? The man was simply airing his opinion on an internet radio and shouldn't be arrested for that. He has the right to speak.

More like dishonesty is clouding your understanding.
The charges were dropped by the FG and the case struck out, to enable the charges to be upgraded by the same FG.

I saw nothing relating to unconditional release in that report.

LadyExcellency:
The high court ordered that Nnamdi Kalu be released to his family UNCONDITIONALLY

What grammar in the judgment is ambiguous to you except your hypocrisy
PoliticsRe: BIAFRA/NNAMDI KANU: Archbishop Of Abuja, Cardinal Onaiyekan Blasts Buhari. by Rawani: 5:35pm On Dec 20, 2015
DSS charges Kanu to court...

DSS/FG withdraws charges against Kanu at the lower court...for a higher court, which has jurisdiction to entertain charges bordering on terrorism, to take over.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Vs Iran: Are We Really Going To War? by Rawani: 8:11am On Dec 20, 2015
To be honest, this could have been a possibility if it wasn't Buhari in power.

This is because of the close cordial diplomatic and personal relationship between PMB and Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the worldwide leader of the Shiites and Iranian leader of the Islamic Revolution. There is every likelihood that they must have discussed this issue and settled the differences.

Day by day, the trips of the 'junketer-in-chief' continues to reap serious benefits for Nigeria. What an elder sees sitting down....

The Minister of Aviation and FAAN should be held to account for this.

Wrong, False and Incorrect.

http://www.post-nigeria.com/apc-commends-jonathan-on-achievements-in-power-sector/

That is how an responsible and commendable opposition party should function.

Kennydoc:
Following what APC taught Nigerians as an opposition party, strong oppositions attack the government whenever they go wrong and keep quiet when they are right. That's what makes them a political party.
I can never remember APC commending the immediate past FG on any of their successes.

I am responding to the OP's skewed summation, and not discussing APC.

Besides, Ameachi cleared himself on live national tv, during the ministerial screening, for your information.

He presented the full probe committee report which cleared him (not Wike's whitepaper), before the Senate President and all PDP senators.

OP, what have FFK and Fayose said about Dasuki/Jonathan's $2.1B arms purchase scam?

Surely, a commendable opposition is borne out of true patriotism, and not just petty antagonism of a rival ruling party.

FFK and Fayose (the judge beater) have no moral authority to criticize this government. We are in need of a virile and altruistic opposition.
