Ain't you and Osinbajo stupid to utter such?
Osinbajo and Buhari should know its past election time, now is the time to face issue of governance.
Whether Jonathan completed a single project or not is immaterial now, what matters now is that the Buhari led govt should devise measures to heal Nigeria, revive the almost comatose economy, create jobs for the youths as they promised.
You can blame Jonathan from now till tomorrow but it won't take away the fat that almost 9 months have been spent doing nothing.

You refused to mention also that all those that have been found to have diverted funds and corruptly enrich themselves during the past government must be made to answer for their crimes .

i cant work for a chinese man or firm

Not everybody can work for the Chinese and you are not better than those that work or have worked for the Chinese before.

Flets:
This is a government that has not invested a dime in the power sector
This is a government that does not have a clear economic direction nor a power sector roadmap of its own
But their first instinct is to inflict more hardship on the masses by increasing tariff on a sector they have done nothing on

What happens to first strengthening the regulatory agencies towards overseeing the DISCOs?
What happens to ensuring that every home has prepaid meters first?
What happens to increasing the power supply first to justify the need for tariff increase?
Why cant the govt subsidize the power sector instead of petroleum products?
The criminal and fraudulent excesses in the 2016 budget (website update, double dip zungeru projects, Presidential feeding and BMW car fleets and many other unnecessary luxuries) running into hundreds of billions will go along way in subsidizing the power sector for the next four years.

Buhari's govt is fraud and must be resisted as much as possible.

Direct your anger elsewhere ,this is the best step except you want the government to cancel the flawed privatization of power sector by the last administration. These people bought over the discos yet the past government was giving them money , is that logical. The past government allowed the discos to charge a fraudulent fixes charge that ensures the discos get money for not providing electicity. The fixed charge is abolished now you are still shouting.

Tunami:
Today was just like every other normal day in my workplace, everybody have resumed at the appropriate time, me and a colleague were standing close to the gate and the security man wasnt around at about 9:30am a Chinese man and a Nigerian man just alighted from a jeep without greeting, he asked us where is Mr bola(not real name) who happens to be the general manager? My colleague just hissed and replied him in pidgin( come wey u u no dey greet abi naso una dey behave for una side? Abeg get out of my front).

The chinese man was ashamed of himself and i was just laughing at him as he went away in shame.

NB this colleague of mine is a contractor who is almost through with his work in my work place. The point that i am trying to make in this story is that this white people especially the chinese, lebanese and indians don't regard us as anything because of the way we see them as god in our land while most of them are common laborers in their countries and when they come to Nigeria they will be forming expatriate and be using us like rag. That mentality must be put to an END.

If the guy were your superior it was wrong of you to feel you should be rude to him just because he didn't greet you ,na him greeting carry you go work for the company? You are here insulting these Chinese yet you work in their company why not resign your job if you are not comfortable with their behaviour. Some Nigerian employers are worst then these Chinese, so also there are some Chinese companies that treat Nigerians well.
Direct your anger at the government that couldn't enforce laws on expatriate quota that make common Chinese labourers engineers in Nigeria . Blame the government that goes cap in hand to beg these Chinese,Indians,Lebanese to come and invest in Nigeria and allow them to disregard our Labour / employment laws . Blame government for going to China exim bank to borrow at no interest but with the conditions that some projects will be handled strictly by Chinese companies using Chinese Labour.
From your post your grouse was not with your working condition but for the guy not greeting you, will his greeting put money in your pocket?

Stay safe bro, that Ogun state has the highest number of ritual and human parts trading in west Africa. It is so because it also has the highest number of yoruba churches whose pastors are chief ritualists, throw in their trado-muslim ritual clerics into the mix and you have the Ritual capital of the world.

Talking as if there are no ritualists in the east, what about the otokotos and the okija shrine . You talk as if other Nigerians are not aware that you have not been to your village in years because there is an uncle who wants to kill you or a jealous step mother who doesn't want your progress. Not forgeting the ritual money bags from the east and the kidnappers. Was dead bodies not discovered in the foundation of a proposed church in the east recently?
In case you don't know there are still cannibal tribes existing in some parts of the east and south south around ugep.

Nossa:
we know all of that, the paedophile has tried everything possible to paint a bad picture of IPOB but he's just too dumb ****

And what do you think you are doing by calling Pmb a paedophile ? Same thing you are accusing Pmb of doing to IPOB. Painting a bad picture.

OreMI22:
Buhari is truly a dulllard.

He sent his soldiers to hijack innocent ship and try to blame it on Biafra protesters

Of course radio Biafra officials stated it clearly what Buhari had done.

All of a sudden, all the hostage takers escape miraculously and Buhari could not catch even one ?
This is the type of tales they expect you to believe because they think you are as dull as Oga Dullardinnho !

You must have problem reading and understanding what you read . The hostage takers escaped with their hostages . No sane government will go after bandits that are holding citizens hostage. Reason with your God given brain and not your anus. Bigot

kkh2:
your kind of mind is damned to eternal hell fire.you think everyone enjoy your dirty politics.your kind of politics and the church cant go well together.smh

What is this one saying ? And who have time for your tribal politics . As you can see your hatred for other tribes and pain of loss of election has now make you start calling your elders name and spoil good name good ibos have built . Don't drag the church into your tribal politics.

crosbreaka:
The man is an unrepentant despot who doesn't care if his people are suffering for so long as he remains on his seat. He keeps popping up controversial topics to win sympathy. One day he speaks against homosexuality and another day against colonialism. We are in 2016, not in 1940.

Why did he not help blacks to develop their own lands? Must he confiscate the lands the minority white farmers work on? Instead of behaving like an outlaw, let him help others to catch up and compete. He's acting like a colonist himself.

Well that's according to the white colonialist masters and puppets put up by USA in the name of opposition leader Tsvangirai. How do you think the blacks can catch up with the whites economically when they don't own the first factor of production, land. Mugabe did the best thing by seizing those lands after the expiration of the ultimatum given to them. If he were a colonist himself , Nigeria will probably be a colony of Zimbabwe now.
So because this is 2016 then we should close our eyes to evils of colonialism and homosexuality?

ericuzor:
write you this letter with all sense of humility and deep respect for you and your calling as a priest of the Holy Mother Church. This letter has become absolutely necessary owing to your recent political activities which are causing the Church huge embarrassment. As a Catholic myself, I, as other Catholics, are now forced to bear the shame of your recent activities and asked questions about the transfer policies of the Church which ordinarily should not have caused any public inquisition if you had not caused it to be so.
Fr, it is unfortunate that as a priest of the Catholic Church, you have allowed your emotions to take you beyond your allowed limits in partisan politics before, during and after the last elections.
Pray, what is in a transfer of a priest in the Catholic Church? You were transferred from one parish to another, an exercise that is a normal routine in the Church, and instead of you to move quickly and quietly as expected, you caused a whole lot of needless hullaballoo and in an attempt to curry public sympathy, made your transfer look like anything but usual in the Church. The razzmatazz and revelry that graced your movement to your new parish is alien to the Church! You are gradually eroding the very fabric that makes the Catholic Church unique and uncommon among others.
Were you the only priest transferred? Why did other priests not cry to the public about their own transfers? Did you reach an agreement with the Church on the day of your ordination that you should be exempted from transfers? Fr, you need not be reminded that you are a priest of the Catholic Church and not a pastor of any other denomination. It is no longer news that priests of the Catholic Church do not belong to themselves but to the Church wholly, fully and entirely, hence, you took an oath of not only obedience to your Local Ordinary, the Bishop, but your oath also included that of poverty. So, the Bishop exercises his prerogative to transfer any priest serving under him to areas where their services are most needed among other considerations. Just like you were transferred from somewhere else to Christ the King Parish, GRA, Enugu, you have also been transferred to Our Lady parish, Umuchigbo, Njinike also in Enugu.
It would be ignorant of me to think that you actually thought Christ the King Parish, GRA Enugu would be your parish forever. No priest of the Catholic Church would ever think a particular posting of his would last for too long. For example, in Abuja Archdiocese from where I write you this letter, there are brother-priests of yours who have been transferred from the highbrow area of Maitama to a parish in a remote village like Yangoji in far away Kwali LGA, just as there have been priests transferred from Igu, also a very remote village in Bwari LGA, to Our Lady Mother of Perpetual Help Parish, Gwarinpa, and then to Our lady Queen of Nigeria Pro-Cathedral, Garki, and so on and so forth. Are you not aware of brother-priests who have been transferred from the comfort of parishes in Nigeria here to remote places even in war-torn and less developed countries like Chad, Sudan, Mali, Sierra-Leone, Burundi etc,
Some of them in areas so remote cars cannot even get there nor is there electricity, yet, they went in obedience and without noise. Fr, how is yours supposed to be different?
You complained about the parish house you are to occupy as being too small and by implication, not comfortable for you. The question is, was it not a brother-priest that just used and left there? Are you saying that other priests can remain to serve God’s people perpetually in a one room self-contained apartment while you enjoy the comfort of a gigantic parish house perpetually?
Fr, John the Baptist served God effectively in the wilderness; all the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ left all the comfort of family and wealth and followed willingly and without complaining, the Son of Man who had no place to lay His head. Fr, from which part of the scripture did you get your reason for complaining?
To describe your transfer as a witch hunt is the most uncharitable comment any priest can make against his bishop especially in public. You are not a Pentecostal pastor or a General Overseer of any church, you are a priest of the Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. You own no church and you own no parish. The gifts of the Spirit (miracle, healing, prophecy etc) which God has blessed you with are not the emphasis of the Church. The Catholic Church places more emphasis on the fruit of the Holy Spirit which is what ultimately helps a man to make heaven: “…Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name. But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws’”. There is no ordained priest no matter how gifted that has survived a confrontation with the Church. They go quickly into oblivion soon after while the Church waxes stronger. Fr, be very careful!
You lamented about the assets of the Adoration Ministry and where you were going to keep them since your new parish is too small to contain them. I understand your concern especially as I am also aware of the enormity of the assets being an archdiocesan official of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal of Nigeria, Abuja, myself. However, just like you admitted, you have “given” the assets to the Catholic Church in Enugu. So, if you have “given” the assets to the Catholic Church, why not just hand them over to your Bishop who knows how most appropriate to take care of them. Why do you still cry over that which you have “given” out? More so, you know that as a Catholic priest, you own nothing! There is no major asset even including a car that you can own without the consent and blessing of your bishop. This is how the Catholic Church is structured. This is how the Catholic Church works. So, those assets never belonged to you ab initio , they have always belonged to the Church. Just take an inventory of them and hand them over to the appropriate authorities. They know what to do with them.
One of the reasons why our priests are not allowed to own anything of their own is so that when the call of service comes and they are asked to go anywhere at the shortest notice, they would not have to look back at what they would be leaving behind so that they do not drag their feet on obeying the call to service. Lot’s wife looked back and turned to a Pillar of salt. Fr, why are you looking back?
As I end this letter, let me remind you that your gifts of the Holy Spirit do not come in isolation. They come with enormous responsibility! Enough of this ridicule you have subjected the Church to. Focus your attention on your apostolic calling and leave politics for politicians. If you are so interested in joining politics and making your mark there, you know the right thing to do. Stop parading about like a colossus that the Church is so badly in need of. No one man or group of men can hold the Catholic Church to ransom. Even if the Lord decides that you answer the eternal call today, Enugu diocese will never fold up!
I pray that God will lead you aright in all your endeavours!

Father Mbaka endorses current Deputy President Ike Ekweremadu before the 2015 elections in Enugu below...

It is people like you and write up like yours that's making noise about the transfer of Fr. Mbaka. You all are just creating the media frenzy about this matter just to spoil the good name the priest have built over the years for the simple reason that he refuse to endorse your candidate in the general elections. Instead of a bias write up like this you people should leave the priest alone. Never will any Catholic priest reject his posting to anywhere. they are trained to go be priest anywhere . All this media trial should stop. Stop involving the Catholic church in your tribal politics. Shameless people

paschu:
At times I wonder if you guys think with your behind, otherwise, even a baby should know that a fraudlent person would not be calling for blockage of financial leakages, let alone going to court to push for it, if she was all out to steal money. But why won't you call her names when you have a hard time thinking clearly even in common simple terms.

MUMU you constructed all this grammar just to agree with me that thou she suggested it she didn't have the balls to actually implement it and as a minister of for that matter. She refused implementing a policy that would have brought Nigeria lots of money but she decided to look the other way shamelessly . She didn't need a court order all she needed was a focused president which she never got in Gej .

Me think he knows he has lost face ,he has been shamed and exposed as a fraud and is afraid he may be stoned on the street of he gets out.

GreatAgb:
This is an indication of the cluelessness of the present FG. Even before they got to power, the were aware of the tough times aheaD. They promised change. They came into power and yet the impact is growing by the day. What buffers have this govt put in place as sugGested by NOI?

On the economy, this govt has since slipped from grade D to E and are precariously at the edge of slipping to an epic Fail.

Yes they promised change and are giving change. Though NOI suggested blocking revenue leakages as far back as 2014 neither she nor GEJ made any moves to block the leakages but PMB has done that..... that is change.
Asking what buffer has been out in place? Let the budget get passed and you will see.
Liar the economy is doing fine unlike other nations that depend on oil like Nigeria , just ask Google.

Can you share Kadiri Ikhana's profile plus pictures
Thanks.

Kadiri Ikhana (born 31 December 1951 in Ilorin) is a Nigerian football coach
Ikhana grew up in Ilorin, where he began playing football as a child. He initially played as a goalkeeper but soon became a utility player, before eventually commanding the position of right-back.[1] He joined the army and played football in the Inter-Unit football competition organised in the Artillery Camp Headquarters at Kaduna.

Playing with the Nigerian Army, Ikhana was discovered by club Bendel Insurance and signed for them in 1977. Ikhana was a member of the Green Eagle squad that won the 1980 African Cup of Nations and represented Nigeria at the 1980 Summer Olympic Games.
After retiring from playing, he became the first coach of Maiduguri's El-Kanemi Warriors in 1986. He is also a former coach of BCC Lions, Kwara United F.C., Sunshine Stars F.C., Sharks F.C. and Enyimba F.C., leading the latter to a CAF Champions League title.[3] He resigned from his position at Kano Pillars on 27 May 2008, citing corruption in the game.[4] He had led Kano Pillars to their first ever league title a day earlier.[5] It concluded his third stint with the squad, as he was their coach for their first premier league season in 1991 and saved them from relegation in 1998. On 1 August 2008, he was rehired to be the coach of Sharks F.C.[6]

The 2008 season was a tough one. On 24 September, Ikhana was accosted by three youths at his hotel in Akure after the Sharks played at Sunshine Stars. They were later captured.[7] On 12 October, he went to the hospital however when he was attacked by hooligans after Sharks upset league leading Kaduna United F.C. 1–0 in Kaduna.[8] After almost leaving Sharks after the 2009 Federation Cup final (a 1–0 loss to Enyimba), he returned for the 2009–10 season but went MIA after the first eight games.[9] He was linked to a move to Wikki Tourists F.C.[10] He eventually moved to Niger and was hired as technical consultant to the Niger Football Federation.[11]

In July 2010, he was hired by Kwara United[12] He was hired as the technical advisor for the Nigeria women's team in March 2012.[13] He resigned in November after the team placed fourth at the 2012 African Women's Championship, their worst ever showing.

In August 2013, he was hired by Nasarawa United for the final 11 games of the 2013 season.[14] He stepped down after the season and said he has no plans to coach from the bench again.[15] However, in May 2014 he accepted the vacant job of Giwa F.C., the 9th different top-flight club he has coached.[16] After family concerns about the security in Jos, he resigned after less than two months to coach Enyimba.

The Economist was too soft on PMB.

The FX and import restrictions are an outright disaster!

Even the expansionary budget is a curse becsuse the FX restrictions will adversely affect it. Expansionary budgets alwsys leads to a loss in a currency's value. Since the CBN will not allow the to lose value officially, the pressure will be on the black market. I foresee the naira touching 400 year ending

How is it an outright disaster? Which sane government continue to use scarce dollars to continue to import things it can produce locally. Abeg dollar can go up to 1000 of e like but surely it will come down once the economy starts producing and we start exporting . Only those benefiting from the current lopsided economy are complaining , why should government give someone dollars to import toothpick, tomato paste, matches when there are critical areas that needs this dollars.

which of the ibadan ghettos? Like only 1/100th of ibadan isn't a ghetto.

Bros please wake up

Ibadan can be compared with cities like Cairo and Johannesburg . In there cities you have the old / inner city areas. Ibadan city has 11 local governments and those areas you see with Brown roofs occupy just about 3 local governments . The vast majority of areas in ibadan are good neighbourhoods and places of pride. Ibadan is a complex mix of ancient and modern and needs an unbiased eyes to see its beauty , qualities you unfortunately don't possess.

Panzerfaust:
Hide behind monikers? You dare not say any of that shit to my face if we actually meet.
Cunt.

Empty threats . Grow up kid and a piece of advice for you, poltics and political discussions are not for kids , so just watch and learn from your elders instead of jumping like 'oya'

Panzerfaust:
I've lived in Ibadan all my life. I was born here, I schooled here, and I work here. If this is ur standard of good governance, then you are one big dumbf.uck...Quote me and ill bury you, you bas.tard.

So you lived all your life in ibadan and you think you can talk dirty huh! Don't have time to waste on kids without home training who hide behind monikers and talk anyhow on a public forum . You wrote rubbish and when corrected started exhibiting your ignorance . You probably live in one of ibadan ghettos and live a frustrated life and feel the governor is the cause of your frustration so you decide to take it out on him but citizens like us will not allow you mislead others. You are just as ignorant as I think so you think you can silence me with threat of burying me for quoting you hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Panzerfaust:
I'm a resident of Ibadan, and I can honestly say that the sabbatical leave embarked upon by Governor Ajimobi is puzzling. One cannot point to a SINGLE item of achievement by this man's Government! In fact, it is difficult to believe that there is any presence of governance in the state! For all the SW governors that rode on the achievements of Fashola in Lagos state, the apple does fall far from the tree. Mr Ajimobi, pls wake up!!

LIAR FROM THE PIT OF HELL. You don't live in ibadan .yes because if you do you won't come here and spew this trash of a topic. You can not point to a SINGLE item of achievement? Definitely you don't live in ibadan . You are probably one of those who visit once in a while. What you can say that anyone will not argue is that since WINNING SECOND TERM ajimobi has been in hibernation ,this as usual is blamed on fall in oil price as the state can only pay salaries (which has not even been regular) hence doesn't have money for capital projects reason all contracts have been stalled . Don't come and spread lies here on naitaland .

post=42285679:
And also blaming the Igbos for their misfortune, they voted for Change hope their region will be Eldorado, and also to pin down southeasters and their business men and women, you can see how they where rejoicing over demolition of Oshodi market, at last what happened? They should have learnt a lot from 20 pounds and economic policies against the Igbos that didn't work. Southwestern states is stagnant at the moment not just Oyo, only Lagos is putting small effort, they are the highest indebted region in Nigeria and nothing to show for the large loan they collected, Ekiti spent their own on JKF love water bed, Osun on visibility study on longest runway airport in western hemisphere and tallest talking drum in the world according to Guinness book of record , while civil servants are languishing same with other states, the zombies will be silent on the evils going on in their region, they easily jump on any thread about the Igbos to pour out their frustration, and hatred while their region is retrogressing, you can never see them comment on this thread, they will allow the thread to kindly go down, but create any thread about IPOB, Olisa metu, Stella Odua or NOI they will land like vultures. I have been to all southwestern state recently I feel sorry for them when they coming online to paint their region as most developed, majority of them don't travel, those that do don't like coming back this is the fact, when I traveled to Oyo recently with one of their own also a friend he was so ashamed to tell me we had gotten to Ibadan until I noticed brown roof every where. I feel for them, they don't what others to mock them especially Igbos.

LIAR FROM THE PIT OF HELL. You are blinded with hate for the yorubas sown by your fathers who fought an ill advised war and lost and therefore blame the yorubas for their loss even if after then they were able to get back on their feet because of Yoruba magnanimity . If not hatred how can a sane person say yorubaland is retrogressing in development ,you haven't been near any yorubaland you liar.So what if south west is the most indebted region, America owe trillions of dollars in debt and is still the world power. This same yorubaland you people can never do without you have so much hatred for why are you lot so ungrateful ?

Salaries where paid on or before the 25th during GEJ but this boko govt must wait till the second week to pay.

Stop this trash nonsense.

If they paid on the 21st then let me die instantly.

This Govt that insisted that salaries must be paid after the month is exhausted can not pay before the month end.

Stop your foolish lies.

Na so person dey take curse himself, are you a federal worker ? Federal workers that have been paid have confirmed it and you want to die because the government have done what your hero never did. CHANGE IS HERE.
