Adminisher:
So?. Nigeria does not mind if the entire ND production is shut. We will make the money offshore with the higher prices while we hunt and shoot and bomb all the creeks .
This can go onow for 5 years while Nigeria restructures it's economy to Agriculture and solid minerals. When you fight a war against Black Africa's largest army for 5 years you know what destruction and suffering is.
Yet you will never get what you want. Already Bayelsa is owing salaries.
Hahaha. So they are doing you a favour, weaning you off your addiction to octane fumes. Any body builder angry with his workout machines because they hurt his muscles is a joker....dumb citizens. Instead of insisting for the expedient diversification. Your problems are in Aso Rock not the creeks. That is why Jonathan remains the best president to date. He saw tomorrow but the establishment will have none. Even Saudi Arabia with unlimited reserves and production costs of 20 dollars (virtually the only OPC making profit now) has gone beyond thinking to 'doing' diversification. We are running round looking for drugs to indulge our habit.

Nigeria is a dumping ground for fake Chinese goods


Three phone accessories I hate to see
1. Fake earpiece
2. Charger with "street lights"
3. Explosive power banks
I call them tissue paper, only good for wiping your rear end. Once the original is gone just forget it or the service it supports.

Politics › Re: Buhari And Wike Meet In Abuja, At The Presidential Villa by Reference(m): 8:28pm On May 16, 2016
Quakertellicus1:
I don't necessarily like APC , after all they are not doing what I want them to do....get us off oil permanently.

But every time I see this ''Buhari is a'' comments....I wonder what else the people who want to be our Opposition on Nairaland have to say.

Can you give us concrete and correct critiques of the government beyond ''Buhari is a dullard''? Because.....I am getting tired of an opposition that has absolutely nothing to say.....other than get ''revenge'' for perceived or non-perceived ''hurts''.

You people should give us a principled and intellectual opposition of ideas and alternatives, not an opposition of puerile insults that make you no better than those who called GEJ names without giving us their ideas.

We want something better from you than just insults and memes. You are capable of that.
You should know better, that it has come to stay and that it is a barometer of the quality of people making up a country and the likely direction the country will take, afterall they are youths.....the driving force behind the successes of other countries.

You are right. The APC did its part last administration and see where it landed us, an auerage choice. When the youths will not set the pace and find a leader who can match it with a drive towards their aspirations....
Leadership is only as good as followership afterall Moses the meekest man was rubbished and died in the desert because of the goats he led.

Good development. This is what a President should be doing, engaging across demographics and party politics. That's leadership and statesmanship. He should engage all the governors of states at the centre of the economic war.
Politics › Re: Niger Delta Avengers Are Criminals! - Ateke Tom says by Reference(m): 8:11pm On May 16, 2016
The fact that Ateke, Tompolo and Asari are not part of the latest campaign of sabotage against the State lends credence to the amnesty program of the past and more notably the ascension to power and responsibility of a figure from that region. The fact also that new groups are spawning clearly shows that the present government isn't getting it right. The ND issue is not a Jonathan, PDP or South-South issue, it is a Nigerian issue and we should start viewing it with collective responsibility as a nation. A northerner, westerner, easterner, PDP man, APC man should view the region from a perspective as if he or she came from there. And even if he was resident in Turkey or Timbuktu consider that his aged parents live there.
Tell me. Will you be proud of what the place has become.
Politics › Re: PDP Breaks Into Two Factions by Reference(m): 6:50am On May 16, 2016
ddippset:
Lol, I wonder how the PDP fans, wailing wailers and ipob touts who were rejoicing and having fun over APC's earlier problems would be feeling now.
It is cyclical. The APC was once like this, a party of factions but came together to wrest power. They will run government until they run out of goodwill and lose power. This is inevitable and is the nature of democracy.
Politics › Re: PDP Breaks Into Two Factions by Reference(m): 6:35am On May 16, 2016
Wow, really surprised that the party machinery is crystalizing this early. I had earlier thought nothing was happening but for their members to start taking positions is a sign of revival. I hope a few more groupings emerge before the year's end so that the foundations of the party will be deepened.

We really need the PDP to get back into active politics as an institution. The present scenario where individuals speak on its behalf and oppose the government is problematic because the government shuts these folks with arrests, charges and prosecutions. That is why I will always favour institutions over individuals (you cannot arrest institutions). Now that the party is being rebuilt there is hope that true opposition politics moves closer for our collective benefit.

Politics › Re: Kachikwu, State Governors Forced Buhari To Hike Fuel Price - FG Official by Reference(m): 9:14pm On May 15, 2016
The APC should stop this buck passing. Buhari was elected because of these kind of things, tough, decisive decisions. A vast majority wanted to tap into his militaty background to institutionalise discipline and cut through political red tape. If he cannot take responsibility in times like this he will severely undermine his respect and if his aides keep on taking political blows on his behalf it is they who will first rebel.
Politics › Re: Kachikwu, State Governors Forced Buhari To Hike Fuel Price - FG Official by Reference(m): 8:49pm On May 15, 2016
Lìke I said a number of days ago. Buhari and his supporters will do anything to insulate themselves from political responsibility. In order to remain a cult figure and appear squeaky clean the bitter roots of governance must always be uprooted and others made to take the brew. Deflections, excuses and buck passing has now become the norm. The governors are the latest to fall for what is a Federal decision and responsibility while the President as usual was absent. Hmmm,......I just wonder.....

Obasanjo should be supportive and not critical of the government. This is our country and we should all make it work and not point accusing fingers.

Obasanjo is not Patriotic at all.
Stop being silly. So being critical of persons, policies and government is not patriotic. If no one was critical about the previous government and president will this government have seen the light of the day. Abeg wake up. This government is open for criticism and if it can't take it, it should close shop.

Politics › Re: Removal of Subsidy Without Provision of Palliative Is Wickedness by Reference(m): 12:17pm On May 14, 2016
Quite agree. At least after surgery you are given pain killers while healing else you run mad or collapse from shock but like the late Prince, when you get addicted to painkillers aka palliatives.....death is not far from your economy. Nigerians always want the easy way out. They want to be Japan without being nuked or China without Mao. Sorry, ain't gonna happen.

Bad planning by the management,tomatoes can be harvested under three months. With irrigation,it will be an all year crop
No. Tomato is a dry season crop. It needs plenty of sun and dry air, not what you get induring the tropical season of high moisture, high humidity which promotes lots of diseases. The only way you can do it successfully is to have a greenhouse.
