which one u don donate since ur mama born u? u reasoning is so dwarf

And you have humility as part of your moniker shows you are as fake as your moniker. Typical of fools who can only rant on nairaland blindly, leave the message attack the messenger . Come up with counter argument and stop behaving like an overfed kid

dukecharles:
Shame on you, For records, Ben Bruce became a senator and political office hold in 2015. Grow up

So he was born in 2015 abi? And you are wrong he has held public office before as DG NTA. He has been a PDP member while GEJ was in power why did he not patronize made in Aba then, why wait till some people came up with the idea of changing the way we do things to now carry it on his head, why didn't he ask GEJ to buy innoson vehicles for all federal government agencies until now. So he couldn't say anything until now because he wasn't a senator? Keep deceiving yourselves

millhouse:
and all your apshit that own hotels, eateries, What have they done to make the change visible. When u see good applaud when you see bad criticize. We are humans not animals so have a conscience.

What good is there in trying to make the other people look bad just to score some cheap political ponits . Again I ask where has he been all this while, did he just start building Galleries or did Aba just come into existence . It was APC that promised change why is PDP guys like Twitter senator hijacking it. What has hotel and eateries have to do with this, has he reduced the price of a movie ticket or has he reduced the price of popcorn in those galleries.

bros12345:
Try and comment according to the topic. Stop the hating. Learn to say something without blaming GEJ/PDP. Move on. No one goes forward looking backward. If Bruce has just woken up to his responsibility, so be it. We pray other senators wake up too.

As for the topic, Ben Bruce, well done. God bless you.

Them let him say sorry to Nigerians for waking up late, let him apologise for looking the other way all this while . My comments is on the topic, did he just start having galleria in 2015 or did Aba just started producing in 2015? Cheap political points.

cocu25:
Seriously, this should be applauded. Mega investors needed

He should be applauded? Where has he been all this while or did Aba just come into existence in 2015?

Biggest hipocrate in Nigeria. This man and other PDP guys are trying to hijack the Change of APC . One wonders where the Twitter senator has been all this while or did Aba just came into existence in 2015 or why the grandstanding with made in Aba goods. Now he is donating his galleria as if he just built it yesterday .

shala01:
Ode!!!! so after about 9/12 years of teaching, a teacher goes home with 100k and u say that is enough? If that is enough why do they (the teachers) almost kill themselves to be members of welfare commintee Why do they buy stuffs from store keeper at fraction the actaul price and resell to students for profit, who brought those things in the first place U want to give nasco biscuit to such a person sell. u no even get sense at all

CORRUPTION AND GREED

shala01:
Why are u trying so hard not to be stupid? Do u know any govertment school where the teachers earns above 100k?? Even a leve 12 officers earn just about hundred k. the few ones who are house masters/mistress connive with store keepers to argument their earnings.

Your stupidity know no bounds . Here you are trying to seem to make sense like your common sense nonsense senator. If a level 12 officer earns 100k after deductions then his real salary is not less than 115k. If you have uncles or even father that connive with store keepers to steal materials not every teacher does. Gone are those days you refer to ,teachers in government employ are paid well commesurate with what they do. A man works for 6hrs 5day week and earn 100k with other benefits like leave allowance,bonus on exam supervision, bonus on ecam marking and above all extra lessons and you think that is not good enough? When people work 8hrs 6day for far less.

MrSegunAdewole:
yes Lagos development today is a collective effort but today you'll see almost every yoruba claiming to be from Lagos as if oshogbo, ibadan are not cities again

we yorubas should stop that nonsense and contribute our quota in the development of our states.

I mr segun Adewole from a rural oshogbo district can never deny my state for anything, yes my state osun state is the poorest state in Nigeria with 0% IGR but am proud of it, am proud of our roofs and am also proud of our slums and pray that our governor Rauf Aregbesola will get it right.

yoruba ronu

emi omo oduah

Where did you get this from, nobody who isn't from Lagos has ever claimed Lagos. I think your problem is you don't know the status of Lagos.

Adebowaletunji:
blame inferiority complex for it....thats why i like igbos,they can never deny their state of origin for any other state

proudly an ondo indigene

Really? Yet they call Lagos one man's land what is that ? Me think it's trying to claim Lagos through the back door. If Ondo people have inferiority complex speak for them alone and don't lump in all the yorubas . Nobody that isn't from Lagos claims Lagos I don't know where you and the Op get that from . If so Aregbesola won't go to osun to become governor .

Lol @ biscuit illiterates. He is evidently referring to the recent report that the Federal Government signed a memorandum of understanding with NASCO Foods Limited, Jos for commercial production of high nutrient dencity special biscuits for the national school feeding programme.

This is the worst of this man' s common sense nonsense, teachers are already well paid , Obasanjo made sure of that . You need to go to any government school and see how their car park compete with that of bankers . I even thought the man will talk if teacher training. Infrastructure and learning aids. Your common sense nonsense is now just noise from a biased opposition

Godiloveu:
Bros! We dey togeda in dis struggle for CHANGE. But I wudn't want PMB to follow GEJ's footsteps rather, he is a pace setter he shud ve patronize Nigeria Tourism center for a good vacation.( If at all, that is, all there is to it).

Quite agree with you , PMB should have set a standard and holiday in a place like Obudu if there isn't any hidden agenda. He can go further by mandating all civil servants to go on leave ( not monetize the leave ) and during the leave they should patronize local tourist sites as this will help build a vibrant tourism market.

Wailers will not like the video because the guy was talking of corruption and change two topics that give the wailers hard on. Their hero and fathers are the ones that have institutionalized corruption and have destroyed the future of the youth. They are quick to come to the defence of looters and corrupt public officers their hero even Said stealing is not corruption .

President Muhammadu Buhari’s Vacation

Presidents need many vacations for their jobs are very tough. If you knew how two young men Mr. Clinton and Mr. Obama aged in four years and then four more years you will see how challenging the job can be. A 73-year old Buhari will need to catch his breath much more often than Clinton and Obama. Both had 2 months’ vacation in every year of their services. One in summer (usually in Massachusetts Martha’s Vineyard) and winter in Hawaii. Nobody should begrudge PMB of his well-earned vacation.

But why would a Nigerian president not spend his vacation in Nigeria? Why must he spend it abroad? This is where we show that we do not like what we have at home and do nothing to make what is abroad available to us in Nigeria. When we get sick we go abroad, we want education for our kids we go abroad and we get a vacation time we go abroad. 

This is a shame.

A country that is foreign exchange starved cannot afford to have her president and his entourage spend their vacation times and foreign exchange abroad. I had thought that PMB was opposed to foreign junkets while a candidate but he seems to have become his own foreign secretary and now spends his vacation abroad. SS has very many wonderful resorts in Obudu Cattle ranch, and Calabar is a very holiday friendly place. Enugu has Nike Lake resort and there is the old Jankara Game Reserve. Or why did the president not go back to his village in Katsina and play checkers/draft with his old buddies? These would make him live as Nigerians live and make him feel like ordinary Nigerians.

I have lived in USA for a little while. Over these years I am yet to read of a foreign head of state spending his vacation in US. Why do we snub our things, always searching for things abroad? Would other Nigerian who want to enjoy their vacations abroad get the foreign exchange to do so or is PMB above the law?

God save Nigeria

Benjami Aduba you can lie oooo, maybe you have lived in the USA for only a day that's why you can say no foreign head of state holidays in the US . Even GEJ used to go there. Stop lying

Godjone:
I blame South West .

If not, north alone cannot decide buhari's faith in a free and fair election. The South West who claim to be educated fell victim of hausa fulani manipulation.

My respect to south south and south east who refuse to dash buhari even one näira vote. This are the most educated people because the see a Buhari presidency as s waste of vote.

Buhari is confused walai and i enjoy saraki and patriotic members in the senate to impeach buhari without much delay

And what did it profit south west for voting GEJ in 2011.? Get over your loss of the election. This same south west never saw a need to vote obasanjo but you bufoons from the south east and south south along with the northerners kept voting for him and he was putting your people in top positions. Wake up bro, your PDP has zoned its next president to the north. What you should be concerned about is when will your biggest party in Africa zone it's presidency to the south east? The answer is NEVER. You know why, in the political calculations of this country the south east votes is insignificant and you bring nothing to the table , no natural resources ,no population ,no money so which political party will take such a people serious.

Uncletony:
Shataap there! What has he done to lagos that enjoy all the previlleges of been the economic hub of Nigeria, with her IGR springing in billions. Tell me exactly what he has done apart from tolling gate, sch fee hike, siphoning lagos money with tifnubu, designing wesite with 75million...guy u dull die!!

INCOHERENT MUMU

orakao8:
HOW MUCH IS APC PAYING YOU?

Truth is bitter. If I had concoted some lies to hail pdp will you ask me how much pdp was paying ?

kenny987:
And the op is not concerned that having identified Nigeria as being turned into a banana republic as he claims, the APC jumped in ostensibly to save the situation and yet has no Marshal Plan? They will need? Is a plan not supposed to be drawn and analysed to identify possible pitfalls before embarking on a project?

Almost one year in and there is no identifiable economic, foreign or national blueprint in place. Even the budget is riddled with gross incompetence and blatant corruption!

How does one then claim to be a better alternative when nothing has been done differently from what we had? Beyond in-your-face tribalism that is?

You keep hammering in its been almost one year and all .if you must know it's 9 months (3 full months short of one year ) which is a long time in politics and government. 2015 budget is still being implemented till March 2016. This government have its plans but can't start implemeting until April by which time hopefully the budget would have been passed .part of the plans is to spend up to 30% on capital projects, 500 billions on social intervention programmes all which will stimulate the economy. Educate yourself and learn to be coherent in your analysis instead of being blinded by hate and your hero's loss of election.

Wail till thy kingdom come, all you yam eaters must go to Jail. did you hear Mewtuh make noise again? he has learnt his lesson

tuniski:
what did he achieve? Overrated conduit a best fit for Fashola!

Even if he didn't do anything he built lekki ikoyi link bridge, he reconstructed Mile12 ikorodu road. Now tell me one completed project in 16 years of pdp

CPriest:
Cape Town, South Africa. 3 bedroom apartment with
1. electronics in every room,
2. 4 burner and oven electric stove,
3. water geyser (giant water heater)
4. 247 power supply.

How much do you pay ESKOM? R300 or about N5000 monthly for electricity.


Ojuelegba, Lagos.
One room face me with
1. one bulb,
2. one socket,
3. 12 hours weekly power.

PHCN charges N5k. Aluta continua.

As at 2011, Nigeria carried one of the highest electricity tarriffs.

Stop lying . Nobody with a meter will pay 5000naira a month for using 1bulb,socket, and 12 hours weekly power even if the one socket powers a fridge. Go away with your wacked analysis. However if the house is not metered anthing can happen . Why wailling now? Labour and civil society tried to stop the last government from going ahead with the fraudulent sake of these power assets but your likes kept quiet until your heri lost the election. Know this that the best way to correct the wrong your hero did yo this nation is this increase in tariff except you want the exercise to be cancelled. The past government was giving money to people that bought these power companies to run them even after guaranteeing they make money without providing electricity through the dubious fixed charge.

RIVERS PEOPLE TURN TO YOUR NEIGHBOUR AND SAY NEIGHBOUR HAVE YOU ACCUSED AMAECHI TODAY?

Wicked Wike is now sounding like a broken record with this allegation of AMAECHI stole this he stole that .He doesn't have the liver to charge the cases to court because he has no evidence .Let Wike point to a project he has done with the loan he took upon assuming office . Or is the project called election?

tuniski:
Fashola is Overrated. He remains only a media creation blown out of proportion. I ask what were his milestones in lagos? Anyway, this is the change they truly promised,nigerians misunderstood them according to lai Moohammed!

Jealousy will kill you , it's obvious you have not been to Lagos in a while . Even diehard ipob members will not say what you have just said. Fashola is an achiever who achieved more than your hero.

AmazonKindle:
he built first class alamajiri schools for northern children record speak for them self

So what ? The question is did he misapptopriate money? After all you walkers have been consistently hammering an fashola using 80million on website even though he performed far far better than your idol .

GodpunishBuhari:
Both you and buhari cant do shitt he's immuned now

It's because of immunity that he made sure he won the governorship election by all means because the atrocities he committed in UBEC is surely going to catch up with him after his tenure ends because immunity is not forever , he shall account for all money he misappropriated .

Hemanwel:
Why didn't Falana hail the Supreme Court for Rivers,Akwa-Ibom,et al,elections judgement?

BTW:

Yorubas are the biggest beneficiaries of this Buhari's administration,therefore they are ready to follow the corpse to the grave

Ibos were the biggest beneficiary of the Jonathan government that's why they still haven't gotten over their loss and are ready to follow Jonathan's corpse to the grave.

money don go market no return

#Benbruce_for_president

#Benbruce_for_president ?

I knew it ,so all this common sense talks is just to position himself as a contender for president in 2019. Hmmmmmmmm smart

DaBullIT:
International news agencies like CNN never joined issues or business advertising for Nigerian Politicians , however , Metro and other public transport systems internationally displayed billboards for them , I remember so many reasons why CNN had to defend itself against running such campaign adverts , just a few days after they aired lies and conspiracy videos on a popular Nigerian Cable Tv


Rolings

Noted

Only if the money comes from the wrong source such as arms fund. Not only Google but CNN and other international news agencies that carried their adverts. Unlike Nigeria where anything goes these are international organizations that operate international best practices and will willingly cooperate with the EFCC . They may even be tried and found guilty in their contries for crimes committed in Nigeria.
