I absolutely agree with him. That is the sad history of Nigeria. At all levels and at all times the country has never put its best leg forward and never had a proper contest for elected office based on merit.

I think Atiku is the most prepared in mainstream opposition and I hope he will be given the chance to contest against Buhari which should produce the best set of debates.

Madam, kalinic has a recurring back injury. No mind these bastards switching tales.
Is that the reason for his leaving camp and posing in holiday pictures. If the back injury prevents him from sitting on the bench or even in the stands then he should be in the emergency ward of a hospital. This is a nonsensical excuse. The least he could have been is a fan and motivator to his mates like an injured Ronaldo at the Euros. He is a solid, worked example of what a recurring failure is.

I cannot see a pure striker in Europe right now who can deliver 30 to 50 goals a season for Madrid and this will be their problem going forward. I forsee a couple of barren years ahead for them and after so much success under Zizzou I think it is time for a realignment of power in Spain.

huh

So what were these armed men doing while he was assaulted,
If tear gas was used how come everyone can still breathe we all know how a canister of tear gas can scatter up that crowd
I just watched his video with neck guard and arm sling and this clown was actually moving his arm scratching his face involuntarily unaware of the play that the arm is stiff and need support of the sling
He did far worse during Johnathan's Era. I am just waiting and watching how Buhari will deal with him the day he hand over Dasuki is still in jail abi and they said he stole NSA money but his actual crime was he lead the soldiers that arrested Buhari during the coup and the certificate issue during Bubu's election.
Now Fayose his story will be very interesting, I know Bubu is really patiently waiting, by the time they slam him with election fraud, of course stolen money. If its the last thing Bubu will do before the end of his miserable term I can bet he won't fail
And the Bubu will be there forever. Once the APC goes...and it will eventually, there will certainly be a legacy of political brigandage and the present actors will have to brace for the retribution. They better watch what they sow, power is transient. The name of the game in democracy is: 'play by the laws'. The present cry by the APC about bad press and fake news is evident that they cannot take what they have given before power and continue to give in office.

Atikusadvocate:
Impressive, but from my experience, this kind of people never make it much in life. They have the patientials to be great but the mixture of religious fanaticism, superstitious nonesense and bullshit from the parents never let them progress beyond praying frequently, followed by book reading and memorizations. Then they will end up going to medical school where they become normal students and later regular, poorly paid Nigerian doctors.

My advice to you is as follows

- Go abroad for your studies and study what you love.
- Try to learn, not memorize for scores.
- God may exist, but religion is fake. He can neither be moved by worship nor prayers.
- prayers does not work. It only works in our imagination.
- Avoid prayer warriors, pastors etc. They will doom you. I am already sorrry for you if your parents are such people.
- Party moderately, drink mildly, avoid drugs, keep one sexual partener and use condoms.
- Explore your sexuality and get a well behaved Partner as soon as you are in university.
- never gamble untill you are 30 and even then, do it for fun not to get rich.
- Explore your sport and artistic talents. Success is not only found in books.
Shoddy advice mister.

What he needs to have is a dream, the vision to observe what his society lacks and the heart to pursue a solution.

What he needs to get is focus, wisdom, determination and fortitude. All these are available in Nigeria where he made those grades and he can become anything in life there after.
Politics › Re: PDP Warns NYSC Not To Cover Up For Adeosun!!! by Reference(m): 3:51pm On Jul 11, 2018
Badeku:
ON KEMI ADEOSUN NYSC CERTIFICATE FORGERY . Fayose told you "Buhari is dead" and even posted his obituary, you believed. After they poisoned Buhari, Fayose told you he had 11 pictures of Buhari in London hospital paralysed and dead you believed and uptill date you never questioned his rational behind those statements. They told you Buhari is a cloned Jibrin Aminu from Sudan, same you swallowed it hook , sinker and linen. Buhari did not have a primary school certificate yet, he rose up in the military to become a general but it never bothered you. They told you Buhari said "The Youths are Lazy" yet, you believed them despite all the counter claim by the presidency. Premium Times misled you while saying 300 cows are more important than human lives in Plateau while they later apologized to Meyatti Alah for sponsoring fake news, you never came forward to tender your apology for causing confusion and spreading lies. CAN apologized for misleading you for the Arabic sentiments yet, you never see what they did wrong. Every bad news you are quick to share while requesting for the president who is fighting for you to present his certificate of about 70 years ago, why can't you ask those that impoverished your life to return our stolen wealth? You dissipates your energy on frivolities yet, closed your mind for things that will benefit your entire generation. . Well, i always like to see the way people reason or think in this country. I can see crazy people everywhere, oh! I can see madness written on some faces. So a graduate with ordinary pass is more competent than a graduate with better grade because of NYSC certificate? . Na wa for this country. The ordinary people are even worse than our leaders. . Kemi Adeosun is their target again. I can see that some reasonable Nigerians are falling for the blackmail of Kemi Adeosun. Once you blocked their channels of stealing then they look for stupid ways to blackmail you through their pay as you go journalists just to disparaged the anti corruption war. . This week at Federal Executive meeting Kemi Adeosun sought for Executive Order for all the department agencies to publish how they spend their budget and it was granted. We should remember also that she put NNPC on the spot with the way they remitted money to the Federation account. She practically scolded them. And what happened thereafter?KemiAdeosun forged NYSC certificate and she must resign. . If your defence is truly for honesty and genuity of purpose why not tell Saraki, Dino, Shehu Sanni, Jona Jang to explain their roles in sponsoring killer gangs or why not tell Atiku to explain how he siphoned Nigeria money for 17years through INTEL. Dino Melaye once had issues with his certificate, you stood for his defence as if you were blood related, hmmm, you never doubted him despite series of abnormalities in his certificate forgery saga. Abeg! why not tell your common sense Senator, Ben Bruce Murray to explain how he collected N11b loan and refused to pay for 13years now? Fayose lied that Federal Government sealed up AKURE Airport and up till now the Airport is opened yet, that never bothered you. Lies upon lies, propaganda without facts are all that pleases you. . This stupid blackmail by Premium Times won't fly and they can go to hell. I once told you, I prefer a mechanic without certificate but with a good ideology to be my President, Governor or Chairman so as to drive Nigeria to a greater height and unto a good path, than an incompetent PhD holder with corruption stinking all over him...so clueless like our hero past to be at the corridors of power. . Corruption must fight back, definitely these are the results when you open your heart to fight corruption to standstill but, Nigeria shall succeed. SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE. Nigerians will survive.
Sentiments is all I see here. Hypocrisy is setting standards you simply cannot meet yourself. Once again the Nigerian system presents us with a choice between two evils. That is why my only clamour is for restructuring so that Nigerians can set their own standards. Every other thing including your long epistle will then fall in place naturally.

To attempt to clean a dish with an oil stained rag is just silly to be frank. This government from top to bottom simly cannot live by the standards by which it judges others, period. If the whole saga was unfortunate and her integrity was important to her she will have instituted a class action against the said publication by now.

For now she is as tainted as the folks you list and cannot be an effective tool in any further action of integrity this government professes. As a matter of fact if this was the kind of advanced, accountable and functional government and democracy you desire she would have stepped aside by now and welcomed an.open, transparent investigation, but till now, nothing.

geometricaxis:
There is nothing to manipulate, the law on eligibility is clear. The certificate will be revoked and she will resign. Otherwise as we get closer to elections she will become a liability as the opposition will seize on the issue. She has no political base so she is expendable.

If APC have any sense they would start looking for a replacement and take the heat now knowing the matter will die down come 2019 elections. if they had any sense they would throw her under the bus and claim it shows they do not tolerate sharp practice blah blah.
Told them this anti corruption thing will turn back and bite them. You can imagine what will happen when the APC eventually loses power and they are held to account with the same vigour they hold others accountable.

The summary is clear. We have wasted three years. Instead of pursuing national development and cohesiveness, restructuring and economic re-engineering the populace were just swayed by Mr. President's unfinished business of selective vendetta. Now the traps are all catching the hunters and they are the ones yelping like wounded animals.... just fed up.

Ibos have wanked off 3 generations on this unsubstantiated allegations. When their sister Ngozi Okonjo Iweala who got to be finance minister because she was cheating on her husband with Obasanjo could not quote a figure over a million. The Harvard ponmo mouth quota system opportunist was the doofus of every table during her time and had billions stolen from Nigeria, yet she's still pretending to be more than what she is to the people she gave our money to and her people now bleating like goats asking Adeosun for the certificate she Ngozi Okonjo Iweala didn't have and nobody cared about.
But the people you holla about have never flown the kite....(drone these days) of anti-corruption that this government and its agents have been mouthing all about including the person in question, so why are you enraged when they hold them to the high standards they set for themselves. Now change no longer begins with them. I warned that corruption was not the main problem of Nigeria. You folks said no. Now enjoy.
Politics › Re: Tinubu: 'PDP Stole All Nigeria’s Money Before Leaving Power' by Reference(m): 6:15am On Jul 11, 2018
Yes, they did. That is history. Politics and elections are about the present going into the future. Bush and the Republican party once ran America aground. The Conservative party under John Major once supervised the UK recessions of the 90's but the Republican party and the Conservatives are in power today because the people were fed up of the incumbents. Is George Bush or John Major in power, no. Neither is Jonathan going to contest for the PDP.

If Tinubu is baying against PDP Nigeria then he is barking up the wrong tree because the party as a whole is getting more popular by the day, because politics is current. If he is speaking about PDP Ekiti then he has a case and must be specific in hitting the Fayose led government or risk confusing the electorate and nullifying his own message.

In fact 1 out 5 on every street will die everyday.... you will just wake up and keep reading neighbours killing families.
Not necessarily. If everyone is armed there will be a lot more consequential thought. You will need an army to break in to rob a simple household and robberies will be less successful. Moreover petty squabbles and fist fights will lessen because of the potentially catastrophic consequences. Nuclear weapons is why the bitterest enemies on earth, America and Russia have hardly fought against one another. Moreover you will not hear of 50 terrorists besieging a village of 3,000 people and slaughtering 500 just like that. They will rather require 5,000 men to do that and this cannot be planned and executed clandestinely.

I fully subscribed. Until our institutions are strong enough to protect the lives of citizrns of this country, every man...and woman should have a right to bear arms. The levels of terrorism and brigandage is as bad as it was between the indigenous mohave indians and the Caucasian invaders/settlers in the old west of America. In order to protect themselves, their families and property from destruction society adopted the bearing of arms as there was scant law enforcement.

Today the similarities in Nigeria are striking, the settlers are being invaded by fulani and Libyan cowboys with law enforcement frequently out gunned and out manoeuvred. Isn't it time we turn the entire populace to one solid block of defence.

Makes total sense to me.

you think apc and buhari will loose sleep over paperweight politicians abi senators that re been constantly stoned by the constituency anytime they visit their state.
apc convention was the red card they give them .
out of all the disgruntled elements that formed RApc only three have political clouts which is limited to their states (saraki,tambuwal,and kwankaso)others re their zombies that followed them like errand boys.
Buhari has been getting millions votes in elections since 1999 before saraki ,tambuwal,kwankaso came to mainstream politics he always got millions without them so they re nobody to determine his faith rather they will fight to win their own stronghold
Oga think again. They will split the votes in the core constituencies of Mr. President. Remember, it will be a fellow northerner he is contesting against unlike in 2015 so votes will be split by default before you factor in all the 'factionairing' the RAPC is causing and the ever important 'poor governance' records.

PMB will do well if he can get anywhere near 60 percent of the votes he garnered from the core north in 2015.
