ericmor:
Barca is killing messi bcs of their transfer market plan. Is time for them to start buying better players too to reduce the pressure on messi. Look at Madrid from 2 to 22 can all score goals n attack like say they are attackers which gives CR7 the chance to operate. Barca better wake up if not, the era of barca will just fade out gradually. No wonder messi was not happy when they lost silver to man city in d transfer market
So a tree can no longer make a forest. Players are over rated. Football is and will remain a team sport as Messi can see with the Argentine national team. Messi this, Ronaldo that. They win trophies and individual accolades because of the quality of their team mates who often work so hard and don't get the credit they deserve. It is now Barcelona sees the value of Alves, and the huge void left by his departure not to talk about the number of assists. Remove Luca or Toni or Casimeiro or Dani from Madrid and they won't win Jack and with that Ronaldo won't win Jill too.

Fani Kayode should go and learn the work of Foreign affairs minister, He/she makes sure that a diplomatic relationship is maintained by Nigeria and other countries.
Commenting or Criticising Fulani attacks in Nigeria is not his job but rather the work of the Interior Minister.
If these issues were domestic to you, I don't think you will be talking this way. In your opinion, government is compartmentalised. Boko Haram and herdsmenace is not his business. It is for 'another ministry'.... minister to talk about....no wonder Nigeria works so well. When elections come and the performance of government comes up for scrutiny, some Ministers will be 're-elected' while others won't abi.

FFK is right. Really shame on this stupid minister. To think the idiot did not console with the 21 Nigerians killed today by BH, his own people but quick to condole with the 6 British citizens. Both events are sad but the minister is a real wicked idiot. May the souls of the deceased Nigerians and the brits rest in perfect peace. Amen.

So because CR7 won last night he has suddenly become better than Messi? We all. Watched both guys go head-to-head in their last El Classico and please remind me who came out tops? Messi of course dismantled real Madrid while CR7 was no where to be found. Juventus wasn't an opposition that could trouble Madrid so my brother no even compare both guys because Messi is the best amongst the two guys cool
But the Messi you call played against Juventus TWICE but could not score...nowhere to be found....I think all these comparisons between two of the greatest players of our time is an exercise in futility. Time and chance happens to both.

Absolutely wrong. If all the 'leaders' voted they won't have the numbers to elect even a class prefect. It is you and I who give them this power and it is only you and I that can change it.

opalu:
Please don't get migraine over this matter. The Senator will soon settle his differences with his Governor.

KOGI STATE is the most blessed state by God Most High, Don't let the negative media reports to make you think otherwise.

1. First Capital of Nigeria = Kogi
2. State that is a neighbour to 10 states and Abuja =Kogi
3. State with more than 25 global natural resources = Kogi
4. State that was created from 2 former states= Kogi
5. State with the largest Steel manufacturer = Kogi
6. State with the largest Cement manufacturer = Kogi
7. State with the highest number of Professors= Kogi
8. State where 2 biggest rivers in Nigeria meet= Kogi
9. State where impossibilities become possible=Kogi
10. State with the largest Cashew potential= Kogi
11. State with the largest fishing potential =Kogi
12. Too many for me to count!!!
You certainly don't know what 'blessing' means. Oga, blessings means the empowerment of man by God to achieve or attain what is hitherto impossible or naturally unlikely. It has absolutely nothjng to do with material things. God created things and saw they were good. God then created man and 'blessed' him, i.e activated his SIM card to 'become'.

If Kogi has all those things and cannot pay salaries I think they are rather a curse than a blessing. That is what people say about Nigeria. That it is 'blessed' with oil yet the 'blessing' kills everyday. Abeg, Japan even with earthquakes and tsunamis and the Hiroshima holocaust has a better life expectancy than Nigeria.

Not a single Federal Constituency Project from Dino Melaye to support his State Governor after the poor 'boy' inherited months of unpaid salaries from Capt Wada his predecessor cry

Black pot calling a piece of charcoal black cry
What is all the excuse making for the governor. Are you his PA. He should pay and stop blame trading or resign for someone who can. If the wage bill is impossible he can downsize, right size or declare bankruptcy so that the state can be sold to Lagos which is looking for arable land for its agro programs and a wilderness for its delinquents and lunatics.

You're part of the problem. Insecurity is not a partisan topic of discourse. If you cannot see beyond individuals you are no better than those in the thick of it. You are first a human being, then a Nigerian, perhaps an indigene of the state before your are a political pawn. Politics should be the least of your concerns. Wake up. The folks you so talk about are probably playing a round of golf together while cutting deals, hyping their differences like pro boxers and wrestlers do to top up the box office for folks like you to roll out the big cash and cheer fixed contests.

You guys keep on missing the point. It is not individuals that corrupt the system. It is the system that corrupts the individuals. Change the game, not the players. Worlď reknowned Okonjo Iweala, highly skilled and globally schooled in best practices still writing cheques to launder money on behalf of government she works for. Shoeless Jonathan giving out billions for votes, frugal Buhari collecting billions from states purses through governors to win election, legal luminaire Osibanjo openly defending a corrupt Emir knowing there are not statutes of limitations on financial crimes...the system brother....messes up eveyone irrespective of background and creed.

Change the game, not the players.

imagine if Yoruba is a separate nation from Igbo and hausa and that man is representing one Yoruba state and he wants to embezzle that huge amount, first his conscience will prick him. you know why? he's no longer up against other people in Nigeria. he's doing his people. now I bet you that he didn't do it alone. what this translates to is that he must have settled some people, say 10 persons. now imagine when/if those persons are not from the same Yoruba region as he is from. they will either share the money equally or breeze will blow.
at the end of the day, he may steal the cash but certainly not up to that amount or there will be chaos on how the loot will be shared and eventually they won't steal it.

moral of the story, break up this useless country into different federating units and watch things get better.
but should you not be interested, just let Biafra come and show you how a country should be run.
Something in this direction but not quite like that. But right now, this country is seen as a benefit, not a right, so it is exploited as a rented car without down payment. Na government money, shikena.

its the same na. They are recommending is same as advice and we all know if they wanted it by force they know how to hand twist the executive. We now know senate is the enemy of the masses
You don't seem to get what is happening. For the Legislature to come out with such a proposal means it has been locked in tussle with the Executive which doesn't seem to know what to do. This is not the first time this kind of absurdity is happening. Trade union disputes, fuel subsidy, telecommunication rates, PHCN wahala, it is the Legislature that will be producing policy. What kind of nonsense is that. What do they do during their weekly FEC meetings besides sharing contracts amongst themselves. Let the Executive come out from under the table they are hiding and face the people squarely. I have never seen such a cowardly government in my lifetime that cannot own up to anything. Very iresponsible people. Senate will be doing your work for you and doing their own work for us at the same time.

Gaya should drop that thing and face his work. That is not his job. If there is nobody in government to do it, then they should let it rot.

Let the executive be honest and not hang its heartlessness on the senate.
Ask me oh. What kind of upside down nonsense country is this. Who will then speak for the people. Who will be their advocate. Anyway I don't blame them, it is the absolutely clueless people in the Executive running this country that I blame. Totally bereft of ideas and stubbornly pig headed to accept those proposed in good faith. Only in Nigeria. Republicans control the Legislature and White House in America yet Trump cannot trash Obamacare with some of his party members voting against a scrap. That is democracy working. Here is just a mess.

It is not the responsibility of the Legislature to advocate policy. Their responsibility is to scrutinise them when the Executive proposes and vett ideas in the overall interest of the country and peoples. What is the Executive doing. Hiding behind the Legislature? What kind of government is this. Haba.
