My brother, God will bless you for this comment.
I have actually seen so many like that. They demand no sex but secretly bang some other guy that most times don't even genuinely care about them

PythonDancer:
Did your ogogoro drinking Otueke here ,Badluck Eleriibu Jonathief attend debate ?

Who is your father that you're here heaping insults on someone else's parent?
I am sure your father will marvel at the sight of Jonathan. You will just hide in one rat hole and start making derogatory remarks about another individual.

If you believe the man failed Nigerians, you simply make your point by saying that.... What's the meaning of this rubbish that you have been saying on every thread.

I challenge you to unveil the identity of your father, let us make a critique of who he is.

ImperialYoruba:
Listen to his reasoning....how more democratic do you want him to go?

Democracy is not about constitution....its about numbers.

Buhari can get 198,000 votes just in Ereko ward in Lagos. That's less than the local govt sef.

Ibo has no shame. 198,000 in the entire SE?

You deserved your neglect under Buhari. You earned it with that figure.

@bold.
My brother, you got this assertion wrong. It is election in a democratic setting that is about numbers, and not Democracy so to speak.

Election (numbers) is just to decide who wields political power according to democratic tenets, where a group of people have agreed to live together according to set rules.

The hallmark of democracy is equal participation, and the absence of discrimination.
Democracy is nothing without a constitution because the Constitution is the embodiment of the laws on which democracy is built upon.

If it is not parochial interest or vindictiveness, no democratic government is suppose to discriminate against her people, let alone showing it in words and in actions.

If you would allow me to digress a little, I want to use my below statement to expound on what I'm trying to say above.
I'm sure you must have come across the popular saying where Nigerian politicians in particular, equate construction of roads, building of hospitals, or in sum total, provision of infrastructure as Dividends of Democracy. This statement is proven to be false.....

Using Nigerian Government and Politics as an example, you would see that the Military Governments developed more infrastructure than their civilian counterparts. Almost all the. Hospitals, bridges including the longest in West Africa (3rd Mainland Bridge), Universities, power stations were all provided by the successive military governments in Nigeria.

Now the big question is, do we now say because the military did the above listed, they are dividends of military rule?

This is exactly how the Democratic system works. Election (numbers) is just an aspect of democracy.
The true dividends of democracy are:

Liberty
Freedom of choice, including liberty to decide who gets what.....
Equal opportunity and participation for all
Respect for human rights.
Rule of law and constitutionalism etc

Others are;

Free and fair election etc.

My brother, even in monarchy, military rule, numbers are often used to decide who becomes the head. So democracy cannot be relegated to just numbers.

President Buhari got this one wrong. Once a man is elected to the position of a president, the whole country becomes his constituency.

Some people on here will say it's the work of opposition.
They will even demand for the video where he said it

martineverest:
election is February...and campaign has started.we all know the budget will be approved probably middle of 2019, as senators do,which is after election..how is the 1billion dollars now a campaign fund?


can we see that many Nigerian youths on nairaland are dumbos, they just comment without thinking

The $3.5 billion spent in 2018, was approval given by NASS?
Perhaps you must have forgotten, Buhari's government spent the money, and wrote a letter to NASS later giving reasons that he spent the money due to anticipatory approval from them.

The same government can spend the $1.05billion in question even though it has not been given approval in the 2019 budget.

Brother, it is not good to speak evil due to individual persuasions. Believe me, you deserve to be insulted due to your ill thought comment, you even went as far as tagging others dumbos.
Just look at the mirror; your comment, and juxtapose with Buhari's antecedents, you will see who is the dumbo

manitoba:
Lol.

That was just a light jab in reply to the guy talking about the expensive cost of air ambulance.

Bloggers love making unnecessary stories out if everything.

Smh

My brother, Nigeria cannot move forward because we have more of idiotic citizens than the ones that use their heads.
It is not a difficult thing to know that Saraki was only replying a tweet from another person about the cost of air ambulance, he even laughed about it.

Even if bloggers are trying to draw traffic, what about the commentators here that has refused to read and understand just a sentence?
It's a pity the country has become what it is.....

Egein:
They inquired about a "Mohamed Buhari", not "Muhammadu Buhari".
Last time I checked the former isn't the President's name.

Oga, that's the name written on the attestation.
Mohamed buhari

Claireshan1:
Please I want to ask is this fifa player of the year same as Ballon D'or?

They are different. At inception, Ballon D'or was given by a French magazine for the best player in Europe.
In 2010, both awards were fused, and given to the best player in the world, but right now, the two awards have been separated from one another.

The Fifa player of the year award is superior to that of Balon D'or

greatiyk4u:
This vote buying strategy is a clear sign that vote counts these days, no more outright rigging as it was during PDP era


Before now we battled with snatching of ballot boxes, secret counting of votes and open use of thugs to intimidate voters


During PDP era, the politicians determine the winners directing by open rigging,

Today, the masses determine the winners by voting either their choice candidate or the candidates they are paid to choose, in all it is now the masses decisions that determine the winner

This shows that with proper voters education we shall soon overcome irregularities in voting in Nigeria


This is for sound minds to digest

If you have a sound mind, you would know that it is not right to compare two wrongs...to know which one has more depth
I think you should digest the above first

Afriifa:
I keep saying it dat most of you just wasted your parents scarce resources to acquire nothing than hate at your respective level of education.
You keep misinterpreting that phrase to ridicule someone who has moved on from your agony..
"Stealing is not corruption"; meaning let a thief be treated as a thief and a corrupt person treated accordingly.
Corruption does not really have to involve monetary gain.(just any abuse of office whether public or private for a private gain)..

I don't av time to elaborate things for u. Some of you are certified ignoramuses..
But here is a word for u... What is ur native word for a thief n ur native word for corruption... Find dem..

My brother, these people and their interpretation of Stealing is not Corruption by Jonathan is just a deliberate attempt to act foolish.
They know what he meant, he even gave elaborate explanation.

infohenry:
Stop saying what you don't know, the leader of the house must come from the party with majority, read about things before making fool of yourself, do you think Saraki and Dogara are fools or happy staying in APC but the number is not in their favour.

My brother, there's no such thing as 'Must' in electing officers in the National Assembly.
There is no established law that says the SP or Speaker must come from Majority Party in Parliament, the practice is just a Convention.

paxonel:
Big lie!!

NwaAmaikpe:



I can categorically confirm that Catholicism is not Christianity.
And that the Lord is not happy with the Catholic church.
For their idolatery,
For kneeling to graven images
For their doctrine of Trinity,
For confessing to man,
For not reading the bible,
For giving Mary more honour than Jesus.
And lastly, for leading many astray.

That is probably why he has turned his face from them and let the herdsmen slaughter their priests.

Because Psalms 91 is explicit about how God preserves his own.

Your comment is smacking with brazen stupidity and inhumanity.
For one to imagine that you are a human being is an insult to common sense.

The numerous pastors, Men of God in whatever place you worship or whatever religion you practice, that suffer the same fate, is it because they are not God's own.
The pentecostal churches and Mosques bomb on daily basis by Boko Haram... Is it because God turned a blind eye reason being that they are not his own?

I am very sure heaven and hell will reject you because you are not qualified to be part of any of them.
Very despicable line of thought

Whether you were physically present, or spiritually absent, the fact remains that there are two factions in APC Lagos state.

Your party has only brought death, suffering, hopelessness, destruction and destruction again.
As if we care about your presence or absence....

Pierohandsome:
I disagree with Falana on this, Senate cn summon the president not to talk of ordinary IGP .

The Senate arm is for checks and balances, the IGP is an appointee who is answerable to the people and can be summoned by the people thru the senate.

Mr Falana, i disagree with u on this.

Don't mind Falana my brother. The man is known to be neither here nor there in his quest to remain relevant.

Rather than address the issue of IGP, he was busy drawing the office of the President or Governor into the mix.
Falana should tell us where in the constitution it is stated that the National Assembly cannot summon the IGP who is an appointed government official.

Noise making senior advocate of Nigeria

DragonKnight:
I don't agree with the attempts being made to impeach PMB because of his lack of consultation with National Assembly in the procurement of the 12 Embraer Super Tucano airplanes. Why? Because I believe that his motives were clearly to equip our Military in the fight against insurgency and it has been far too long since Nigeria has been attempting to close this deal and procure those aircrafts. Also the US authorities having confirmed receiving the money, means that this time the purchase was not marred by corruption and embezzlement, as was the case in some past attempts to procure ammunitions and equipments for the Military. I believe the National Assembly is required by law to caution him for leaving them out of the loop, but calls to impeach him for this act is to me totally uncalled for.

This your opinion is the very reason why we have different morality for different people, and different laws for different people in Nigeria.

When a law is violated, the consequence is expected to follow no matter the circumstances surrounding the violation.
What would you make of a man that is genuinely hungry, and was caught stealing from your house? Will you let him go because he was hungry?

My brother, laws are made to ensure social order by directing each and everyone of us on which course of action to take at a particular time.
Great nations are what they are because they respect their laws and they fight to keep them at all times.

Law and morality are not the same, same way there is a difference between doing what you think is right and doing what you're expected to do.....

....and the last paragraph where you opined that the National Assembly is required by law to caution him for keeping them in the dark is not factual.
The only requirement by law for what he did as prescribed by the 1999 constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) is to initiate impeachment proceedings for gross misconduct.

It is either the National Assembly acts or the members take the part of selective amnesia

Does this Shehu guy have sense at all??
He has a penchant for saying rubbish all the time...

Why not just commend Nigerian workers for their resilience and steadfastness in the face of extreme suffering created by this irresponsible government.
Must this man always succumb to foolish talk?

Nice one
Every worker needs rest

Somewhere around the South....
Hmmm

Governors in Nigeria have a grand plan to inflict pains on Nigerians.
This very nonsense is what Gov. Dickson is doing in Bayelsa state where the state owned institution has been on strike for weeks.
God will punish all these governors

Well done Wenger

Nigeria as a country is a wild life itself because of the obvious lack of control.

There is no difference between a Lion killing zebras and Buffaloes for meal, and herds men killing farmers, women and children for pleasure.
Being a Nigerian is enough wildlife already, so Yankari game reserve should keep where it is to itself.

Real animal lovers are advised to go to Tanzania and Kenya to see natural animals, and not the ones in Aso Rock and Yankari......

Buhari has destroyed Nigeria completely

KenOne:
Where was Livingstone Wichie of integrity group sued by Amaechi for libel and defamation of character and where was Patience Jonathan sued FG libel and harassment since it's a civil matter and Federal high court lacks jurisdiction as you stated. Uche Secondus went to Rivers high court controlled by Wike and PDP to seek cheap judgement let's see if any judgement from there will amount to any thing. You want to sue federal government to a state court, it's tussle for leadership not a civil matter why didn't PDP go to Rivers high court then but rather approached Federal high court Port Harcourt. Though I am not a lawyer but I don't need a legal knowledge to know that Secondus went to the wrong court just to seek cheap judgement and redeem his battered image. [color=#000000]State high court admits defamation no doubt but Secondus ought to have approached FHC since he's sueing Minister of the federal government[/color]. I can as well sue someone that resides in PH in Biu Borno state where I know a judge for a civil matter since the court in Biu Borno has jurisdiction also. Let Secondus approach an Abuja FHC or FHC PH then we can take him serious, FG might not respond to Rivers high court.

@bold, please don't indict yourself.
At one end, you posit that Secondus is approaching the wrong court, at another, you agree that the State High Court has jurisdiction over the charge.
Your doubt Whether Lai Mohammed or the Federal Government through the Attorney General respect the summon does not obliterate the jurisdiction of the court to hear a case like this one, rather their refusal will only add to their disrespect and disregard for the rule of law.

Lastly, your competence level of legal matters denies you the authority to argue on a case like this...

agabusta:
Long but interesting report.

Time seems to be on the part of the president as the 2019 elections is just in less than 1 year.


People are just getting unnecessary emotional about this election sequence while ignoring the other valid points raised by the president in withholding his assent.

They need to go back and take another look at those bills. If they want INEC to conduct local government elections, it has to be via a constitutional amendment.

The president equally queried why 2 grounds for challenging the outcome of an election at an Election Tribunal was removed.

A lot of both readers and the media has not deemed it fit to reveal which justifications for challenging election results were removed to be able to establish if it will be in the overall benefit of the country or the NASS was just being selfish. This is even more important than the election sequence everybody is singing about.

It is quite ironical that it is the president they call illiterate that has been regularly communicating with the NASS on bills he is withholding assent while giving justifications.

I never heard of GEJ/Yaradua communicating with the house in this regard. For Obasanjo only few occasions.

GEJ simply collated their bills in one corner of Aso Rock and was enjoying his fisherman soup and kain kain. At a time, there was a report of almost 200 bills awaiting Presidential assent/assent decline. It was only the constitutional amendment he vetoed at the tail end of his administration. That was a credit to him I must say, as the amendments sought to water down some powers of the president, and he definitely cannot be there for ever.

They should go and work on the amendments with more zeal and give critical attention to the points raised by the president, otherwise the Supreme Court will just throw the Act to the dustbin based on its contradictory stance with the constitution.

There is even a subsisting Supreme Court judgment in this regard during the Obasanjo time.

You write very well but sound very dull.
Is it not possible for you to make sense without making reference to the previous government?

cutesimplycalm:
I got this as well, pls how real are they and this post is it also a marketing post. Answers needed urgently pls cos I'm supposed to go for the interview tomorrow

I really don't think they have other roles apart from marketing.
Most times they use semantics to illicit interest from applicants.

caddylac:
Thanks for the info, but if I may ask why did you leave?

I got another job
Though, I was not really cool with the group target of a thing....

Those that got invite for Communication Executive should attend the interview and make the decision for themselves whether to join them or not.

Most of what they do is field work.
For Communication Executive and Brand Activation, lemme say the following.....

The two roles are marketing positions. There is a basic salary of N50,000. Beside the 50K, commission is paid if group targets are met.
This is how the group target thing works:
Members will be grouped with a membership of eight persons, and the group target is to bring Thirty Distributors in a month. Members are assessed based on how well the group performs, and not individually.

In practical terms, if the group target of 30 distributors is divided by the number of group members, what each member is required to bring is 4 distributors in a month, however a member bringing his 4 distributors doesn't count if the group fails to collectively bring the target of 30 distributors in a month.

Secondly, before a customer can qualify to become a distributor, he or she must be willing and ready to buy goods worth N120,000 at minimum. In other words, if I'm only willing to buy N100,000 worth of goods, then I can't become a distributor.

Some of the products they have on offer includes;
Slim Tea
Tamtadu
HairNowNow
.....and a host of other beauty products.

I spent some time with them before I left. Less than a month though....

I hope the above helps

The most irresponsible government in recent history.

They promised change, but turn around each time to compete and score themselves based on what others did that they condemned.

Lai is a notorious liar...
Girls are kidnapped, why is he talking about how long it took the previous government to respond when something similar occurred? Will the comparison release the girls from captivity?

The accusers of this government are right after all, Buhari does not know anything....surrounded also by a bunch of mediocre aides

This man is a loose Canon
He is gradually becoming a liability to even himself......
