sunch: Pdp shld give her a federal appointment and as well increase the money. Cos there is no security in the job offered her. This gesture wld make her change her mind to go for pdp

Before i say this, i am neither a pdp nor Apc registered member.
pdp have failed. what they should have done on the first day the lady in
question was contacted. They should have helped to get her seized properties back, by paying the fine for her violations. Give her the N250k,
Then, turn around and sue the governor for emotional damages, pains and suffering the woman incurred for telling her to go and die, for N50m. or N100m. Or whatever prize they think is right.The taskforce could be sued along too, if any of her seized goods are lost or damaged. So the litigation will drag on to elections periods till the case is resolved. If the gov is protected by immunity, a petition for damages on the victim behalf will keep the issue on the front burner for a longer time.

The key words there are " propagation of false informations". Is never good to bear or spread false informations against anyone or governments for that matter. Is no crime to spread true informations.Regardless whether the informations is good or bad, as long as the information is true and verifiable. Only liers out there, are the ones that have course to worry.

"Make hayes, while the sunshine". PDP were too slow. They expected the woman to survive on promises. The offer should have been executed the same day the promise was made. Why the foot dragging? No 250k in their war chess? Bureacratic nonesense.

i was in Abakelaki sometime in 2012. Never been to any igbo land before.Was pleasantly surprised. Nice place, lots of developments going on there. pristine natural environments. won't mind visiting again.

Though, i do not hate Buhari per se, but, he is not the type of leader we need in my opinion. I see him as part and parcel of the bad old boys network that sowed the seed of the docile and aparthic civil populance of this nation, that had been traumatised by decades of unaccountable military dictatorships. who destroyed our abilities inherent in the society before and immediately after independence to put pressures and compels govt to do the bidding of the people in whom ultimate soverignty lies.
Some said "people get the govt they deserve". However, the contrary is also true. The prevailing general population characters are as a result of training and conditioning over time by the types of leaders that forced themselves on us. Our society have not always been docile,aparthic,and criminally inclined , but after decades of non-transparent, unaccountable, criminally inclined military juntas forcefully imposing themselves on us, proscribing , detaining indefinately, and murdering people with impurnity, the society took the shape it is today.
So to recover from the traumas of those era, person like Buhari who is one of the direct perpetrator of the brutalities and traumatilization cannot but exacebate the syndrone . He is not capable of building a positive society where the citizens will be empowered to be active in demanding true transparency and accountability from it govt. Buhari will only just be a military dictator on civillian clothing, because, that is all he knows. Vindictiveness, oppositions disappearances, and all the other ills associated with his orientation.

yes,i can vote for Fashola for president. He is witty and innovative.

No wonder, most Nigerians are not buying Buhari's denials of complicities in the Bokoharam's insurgency. Once bitten, twice shy. He is a habitual lier. Caught red handed planning to topple Shagari's democratically elected govt., he denied, people bought his lies. The rest is now history.
Now he think he can do what he did then using military armed criminals to steal the highest office in the nation, with armed civilians religious bigoted criminals to force himself back to power again. Buhari is an unrepentant, unatone, irresponsible criminal armed robber. In a sane society, this guy should be locked up doing time for his crimes. Destroyed a young democratic order with an overblown, trumped up allegations of mass govt corruptions that could not be proved by his own constituted kangaroo military tribunal. Whereas, he is the corrupt thief. I guess his loots then, and the billions petrol-dollars he stole during the reign of terror of his gang member in crimes, Abacha, must be running low. Now he want to come and loot some more again. Omo-Ole.

@OP Most of the advises you got here so far are great. As you have been told diabetes managements are individual specific. So see your healthcare provider to establish your baseline datas and the desire therapuetical interventional threshold. Meanwhile, is good you know some basic foods to aviod or minimize. Items that are already processed, like, glucose,sucrose, fruitose, maltose, galactose, lactose etc. Are to be avoided or consumed sparely. These products are already at the final stages of digestion. so their sugars move through the process of osmotic transport from the semi permeable membrance right from the tongue, mucous linings of the digestive tract straight to the blood stream. Thereby causing sugar spike. or sugar rush. Conversley, complex sugar products like rice, eba, pounded yam, plantain, yam etc, have to go through many stages of digestive conversions to be reduced to absorbable sugar of glucose etc . And this process is gradual. Does not create sugar rush. So, you can eat rice, ema, eba etc but in moderation. Fruits, especially sweet ones like mangoes, pawpaw, all fruit-juices,minerals, watermelon, oranges are fruitose that goes directly from mouth to increase your blood sugar level. Aviod them. Use them sparely only when your blood sugar is low, ie <70 miligram per deciliter of your blood reading. Then eat a complex meal as soon as possible to maintain a substainable sugar level. Sugar is the fuel that drive our lifes.On the long run all food are convertable to different types of sugars to fuel our life metabolism. Just too much of it at one time craetes flooding at the carburator or conversion to useable energy level, resulting into complex systemic problems all over the entire body. In summary, aviod or eat little simple sugars foods like sweet fruits,surgery drinks, malts, ice-creams, cookies, donuts, buns, cubes/granulated sugars, horney etc. Eat in moderations- complex carbohydrates foods like rice, garri, yams, unsweetened wheat products, plantains, oats,etc. Eat freely green leafy vegetables and other color vegetables. And sparely on proteins and fats products.

^^^ you are fighting a loosing battle. Islamism is social baggages from yesteryears that are on the vedges of it last throes. Islam has nothing to offer the mordern world. It is an opium that encourage redundancy. It inhibit freedom of inquaries, modernersation and innovations. The traditional africa religions on the other hand promotes freedoms of choice and much more accepting of innovations and adaptations. That is why elightened minds embrasses it today. It focuses on individual deliverance unlike the herd mentality of islamism, that demands conformation to archiac dogmas.

alnaijiri: Reconstructing our own territories and create our nation states with what? We can't even overcome petty tribalism in Nigeria, much less the entire continent. Islam is the only force today that inspires people to stand up for good. It's the only thing that can unite people of different languages, cultures, and ethnicities.

Why is it that Islam is becoming so popular with black Americans? Because Islam stands for the down-trodden, the oppressed. It gives us hope that God will not forsake us and will grant us victory over those that wish us harm.

I admire Islamic culture and philosophy and the Arabic language. Why? Instead of Western culture, which stands for hedonism, moral relativism, materialism, traditional Islamic culture has always been a force calling for more humane treatment of our fellow man: compassion, respect for life, respect for learning, charity, justice, faith. The Arabic language, unlike our native African languages, have a rich literary tradition spanning more a thousand years. Every people that have adopted the Arabic language have been united by this language, despite their previous ethnic/racial affiliations. I have no shame in calling for African Muslims to make Arabic an integral part of their life, so that we may become more united. It is not any more being slaves to Arabs than you are slaves to the British and Americans by speaking English.

Is not too late to reducate yourself. The greatest things we gain from formal educations are the abilities to read and write. Beyond that you have to free yourself from their agendas. Be the master and the determiner of what you read and study. Don't be one of the many victims of his-story. Charter your history, for in there lies your freedom. Free yourself from mental slavery. "To control a people, you must first control what they think about themselves and how they regard their history and culture. And when your conqueror make you ashamed of your culture and your history, he need no prison walls and no chains to hold you". This is how the Arabs bleeped the blackman with encroachment on African Land by enslaving their minds.

alnaijiri: I applaud this gesture for peace, but the real issues remain unsolved. Jos is a Northern state, traditionally a Muslim area. Xians there should either convert back to Islam or move out. Why should the original inhabitants (Muslims) be forced to change their culture in order to accommodate the newcomers and the apostates? Who could be happy seeing their culture changed by outsiders in their homeland?

where're you, a beast of no lineage,........."practising another man traditions, and call it religion". True religion are in-born from the almighthy himself. you need to learn more on the word "religion". we (you) do not need any sharlots calling himself prophet to align or kindle you with God. we are born aligned with the almighty. To realign, rekindle, (re-ligion) assumed you fell out of alignment from God. Even when you fall out of alignment, the potential to rekindle the unity is an inborn force within you.

logica: You mean "formal" and "informal". Well, yeah they hold formal and informal classes on computer hacking even in schools in the US. Even if the classes are meant to only enlighten, they do end up giving ideas to plenty of guys with malicious intentions.

Thanks for that correction, that is what i mean.

Bome01: this doesn't hurt! Unilag doesn't run a major in credit card scam! Lies!

while there is no major in credit card scams in Unilag. I won't be surprise there could be both formal and informal seminars conducted by unscrupulous shylocks in those campuses on vises of that nature for fees.

Ann coulter or non-Ann coulter, is we, nigerians, that gave her the ammunitions to fire at us and Obama. I think she and her sponsors haven't got the wind of the nigeria ritual obscessions to get rich. Abducting of babies, children and fellow citizens for dissection and harvesting the parts to appease their satan gods to make them rich. I guess she would have mentioned that too. sick people in a sick country. Shame, Shame, Shame.

Holly cow!!! What can i say? This is what has become of Nigeria. Though there is little exageration, the writer is not too far from the truth. our society is riddled with criminilities. Up from the so call leaders to the lower ones on the street. people dreams of getting rich without the thought of providing services to earn their keep. This mind set of something for nothing is killing our nation. wether we like it or not, this is our national credibility in th,e world. Other nations are raking their heads, spending sleepless night to create, invent, or discover things to elevate the human conditions, up lift, and improve living standards, thereby improving their own lots in life. No, nigerians want to lie, con, scan, steal, rob, and kidnap their ways to affleunce. we are not fooling anybody but ourselves. Though there are lots of men and women of reputible moral dignities among us, unfortunately, the empty vessels makes the loudest noise, thereby defining all of us. Something have to give. This nation has out lived its usefullness. It is a failed state. Big does not necessary equate great. The country need to be reconstituted to a smaller manageable parts.

Birds of the same feather flocks together. That Buhari has not been prosecuted and jailed for all his crimes and ingnominies against the nation does not make him a saint. one, he is a known sharia (islamic) bigot. Two, he has a rap sheet of a criminal military dictator. A forceful usurper of leadership. 3,He is as guilty as his cohort in crime Abacha, for holding Nigeria hostage for many years. And laying the foundation for the national absurdities of today. what we need is a clean brake from these criminals. we need a clean leader with a strong enough backbone that will bring people like buhari back to book to account for their crimes.

erinolu: Like Oshiomole

you're correct Oshiomole is a northern stooge. A con man. The so call development he performed in Edo are mostly con jobs." The more you look, the less you see". He developed mostly the schools, roads, and projects that are at the heart and immediate visible areas of the state. while others are untouched. moreover, as you move away from the center of the towns the roads are all mostly in deplorable conditions. And unmotorable. The major arteriers and the middles are well done, giving the impression that everything are fine and on the up, and up side. which is not at all true.

congratulations to the Ogun state govt for taking this proactive move to avert and solve the looming and impending problems of unorganized and unregulated cattle rearings problems. i hope task force will be empowered to enforce these regulations. Other states should emulate the Ogun state to curb the menes of cattles destructions of others lifes sustenances. I hope the national govt will weigh in also to normalized and coordinate the state rules to ensure uniformity and adequate enforcement of the rules agreed on.

interesting drama. from the hearing so far, is obvious the minister is culpable. And her subordinates did the needfuls as authorized and approved by their superior, the minister. And funds were moved. However, what is yet not clear is wether there are value for the money. The vehicles surrender do not match the stock numbers of the ones purportedly bought. so is this the case of intention to steal the money under the guise of buying goods which were not intended to be consummated? As have been alleged by some, move the money outside the country for personal use later. All these need to be ironed out. The money need to be return if not yet used. or the so call over priced bmws should be surrendered. We cannot afford to loose both ways. No money, no goods.

some of those casualties deposited in that hospital mortuary could be victims of the terrorists upheveals that did not have immediate family around to claim them. usually after BH incidiences of atrocities, the JTF goes there to retreive dead victims for mortuary depositions. so all the deposited bodies at the hospitals are not necessarily killed BH by the JTF. some certainly are innocent citizens victimized by boko haram bloodsuckers.

you all don't need to fault the racist teahadist too much. His joke rythoric is designed to spook his people not to enroll for obamacare because nigeria scammers are awaiting at ACA website for their vital informations to do them financial harms. wish is not true off course. unfortunately some of them believe him. And as such will not subscribe to the ACA program. Thereby facilitating Cruz wish for the failure of affordable healthcare act program. His evil wishes will not come true .,.amen.

buoye1: Sick&dumb reasoning.

Hey "smart guy" you will rather have these terrorised people live in fear of being blurgeon to death as sitting ducks without means of defending themselves?Arming the people will serve as a deterrence from their tormentors. And if they are not deterred, the community can rise to defend their lifes. What is dumb & sick is the situation as it is now, where a handful of bandits comes to town or villages and kill defenseless people at will without resistance. It makes no sense at all. Militarising all the citizens in the affected areas is the only solution. They are living in war front. They should be armed and ready to fight when the need be.

Legalise every head of household possessions of arms. Govt should provide guns and armunitions to all able adults in these infested areas to defend themselves against these terrorists. The jtf can do it alone.
