OP go to JEBBA in Niger state. I've been there couple of times and never witness power outage.

Not just jebba but most part of niger state, back in 99 when I was schooling in bida, we used to go a whole semester without power outage

Never you judge a book by its cover. I'm not trying to repeat the "Obanikoro" joke here but I used to think this man will be a good addition to our government. My Oh my, was I so fvcking wrong, he's been nothing but a dissapointment. This kind of tweet cannot be coming from a serious minded CEO. He posts like he's got all the time in the world.

Dont you know that he has all the time in his hands, the senator represents just 3 local government. He cant have the same work load like my senator who represents 10lg even though they collect the same salary ...... He has turned out to be a noisemaker in the guise of fayose, obanikoro et al........ Common sense should tell the man its time to shut up behave like a civilized person we all assume he is or was

Y? Y? Lie Bubu Boko-Hari Terrorist...Is The Killing Not Enough??.......GEJ Pls Come And Interven Pls!!..
Boko-Hari Wanna Finish The Country.
*End Time President*
#GEJMustComeBack.

After failing to stop the killings for 6years you want Gej to come back and do what? Instead of the dullard fighting bh him and dasuki were busy sharing the money meant for weapons and sending our gallant soldiers to die avoidable death. NO
NEVER AGAIN WILL A DULLARD LIKE GEJ RULE NIGERIA.

You thought process is quite pathetic. Very bleak analogy. Learn to encourage people who stop to think about the wellbeing of the financially disadvantaged.

And i think you have a problem with comprehension, i didnt say what he is doing is wrong, i only pointed out what was obvious.

If what is happening in bayelsa happens in the north, nairaland will be awash with hate speeches and stories of how some people are parasites and slaves. Bayelsa has 8 local governments, less than the number of Lg in Ibadan or kano city yet bayelsa has 3 senators like other states, one of the senators has only 2 local governments in his senatorial district. Why wont a ben murray bruce share half his allowance on widows in his constituency if there are so few widows he caters for. Some senators constituency is bigger than the whole bayelsa State yet They collect the same amount of salary and allowances, some may say ehn lets leave them its their oil money we are all spending RUBBISH
Like i used to argue during the days of millitancy days, the millitants should hold their leaders accountable for all the problems in the Niger delta already a large chunk of oil revenue goes back to the oil producing communities via 13% derivation, nddc, ministry of Niger delta and amnesty programme.
Senator Ben Murray Bruce as a senator represents such a small number of people that he can even afford to pay all widows there from his pocket,, abeg he should let us hear word, he is doing nothing spectacular.

Dear Nairalanders,

The Federal Government under Muhammadu Buhari intends to pay 5000 to unemployed graduates in 2016. The first temptation is to think that the amount is meager and insufficient to meet ones daily needs. Though this amount is little, but there are certain possibilities to it. Come to think of it, most unemployed graduates are living as a dependant and probably not providing for their needs. In some other cases, some husslers have one or two ideas they put to work to make ends meet. If this is the case, N5000 can become a stepping stone for something better.

Saving N5000 for 5 Months is N30,000; Saving for 10 Months is N50,000. Surprisingly, there are a number of businesses in Nigeria you can startup with N30,000-50,000 and with a strategic plan, you can start growing your business and transform that small business (as it seems in your eyes) to a mega business venture. Remember that subsequent N5,000 becomes an addition to your business. With 5,000 per month in one year, you can set a credible future from it. It all starts with planning, once you are able to put up a credible plan, then youre on your way to succeed.

The money may not be sufficient to start your dream business, but you can startup with one business, make sufficient income and later shift over to your dream business. this is Raising your capital by growing it. This is not rocket science, it is a simple principle that has saw most small scale businesses in Nigeria expand beyond limit.

The Starting Point is,,,,,,, Have a Business Plan.... for such small scale business, Brics International Resource Solutions provides a business architecture that will ensure that your small business grows beyond limit. Report shows that 80% of Nigerian business fails before they are 2 years... thats very true because 90% of businesses in Nigeria especially small scale business does not have a business plan. You cannot succeed in business by mere thoughts, wishes or imagination, even with sufficient capital, your Business Plan is the path that can lead to your goal.

The buiness plan will help conceptualize your business, determine startup strategy, come up with operational plan, calculate your startup cost, revenue potential etc, develop marketing strategies to ensure that that small business idea (seed) grows to become a large scale business. This business plans are very affordable, dependable and bankable. So prepare for the future by starting today, get a business plan from an organisation that has the foresight to share this tip with you.

We would like to hear from you..... the best way to predict the future is to create it. Just that Business Plan is all you need to start your second income career.

Save your scheme, the Federal Government never said and will not pay 5000 to unemployed graduates but will provide social protection to poor and vulnerable family but introducing a conditional cash transfer of 5000 monthly to them upon proof of enrollment of their children in school and proof of immunization of their children. A similar scheme was piloted by Obj through NAPEP and the scheme was ongoing until recently when NAPEP was scrapped.

Barcanista, Dokpesi did not say he collected 2.1 from Sambo for 2015 elections.

At your level you should be able to sieve lies and propaganda from a story before swallowing it.
The APC media fabricated that lie in their media for gullible Nigerians.


Fine, the man admitted his media companies do business with FG but Can you quote him word for
word where he ever claimed to have collected "N2.1 billion from the former NSA as payment for publicity and media for political campaigns during the 2015 General Elections.”?.

When the issue don't favour you guys you be like " can you quote him word for word where he ever claimed to have collected 21billion bla bla but when you want to attribute what APC never said you don't bother asking for quote but go about wailling
Useless wailling wailler

7. Don't say, do, or THREATEN to do anything that's detrimental to the security, success, or reputation of Nairaland.
8. Don't post false information on Nairaland.
9. Don't use Nairaland for illegal acts, e.g scams, plagiarism, hacking, gay meetings, incitement, promoting Biafra.



That's niralands constitution, you disobey you get banned

Right grouping, agitation for Biafra equals scamming, plagiarism, hacking, gay meeting. As it is the agitation is coming from conmen, armed robbers, kidnppers, prostitutes, gays.
Nairaland operates by rules and every user is bound to obey those rules. Do you know it is a crime in many european coutries to deny the holocaust against jews? If nairaland wants to make it an offence to promote Biafra so be it.

Nihilist:
This article is so wrong I dont even know where to begin

1. The average employee typically works a 5 day week or roughly 20 days in month. I completely disgree with the premise of the OP's dubious calculations, but even if the calculations were grounded in some sort of logic, shouldn't the OP be dividing by 20 instead of 30?

2. The OP also misses the point by comparing an employee and his steady income to Hawkers,Truckers etc with their irregular cash flow. Again I doubt the veracity of his stats with regards to the earnings of hawkers, truckers and co, but even if the stats were true, The OP still fails to consider that even though the Hawker could earn 2000 Naira in a day, he/she is not guaranteed an income of 120k per month unlike the Banker

The crux of the OP's assertion is Business Owners have the potential to earn more than employees. The OP fails to consider the level of risk that these entrepreneurs are exposed to.

For the vast majority of people, it is better to go to work and be guaranteed your 300k monthly salary jejely, than to go and out hustle with no true knowledge of when the next paycheck is coming.

You spoke my mind, These kind of articles come from people who have done shoddy research. The Op assumes everyone must be an enterpreneur if so then who will the enterpreneur empoy? Fact is we all won't have white collar job and we all wont be enterpreneurs. Its the harsh economic conditions that make Nigerians reason like this, how can the Op say a Truckpusher is better off than a banker?
Besides the Op only calculates the earning of the Pure Water seller, truck pusher etc and not their profit. The thing is most of them incur about half of their earnings in cost while most office workers incur only transport cost. To me , the Op is so wrong.

GspotAngela:
Govenor Willie Obiano is trying to shield the rogues that wrecked mayhem and distrupted the peace today in Anambra state. We read about how they waylaid motorists/travellers by blocking the Onitsha head bridge.

Today, the biafra protesters looted shops, lit burn fires, pelted security forces with stones, burnt Six Dangote's truck, harmed several Youth Corpers and also burnt the Hausa Central Mosque at Onitsha

They killed youth Corpers from different parts of the country, have They forgotten They have their children in other parts of the country too serving. They have burnt down a hausa mosque so shouldnt be angry when anti igbo protest and killings starts in the north.

francizy:
You're just being a courageous and decietful sycophant. I think your equation there should be reversed. I said so because your likes derive pleasure in turning the truth on its head. Go to threads where Igbos committed crimes and that where Yorubas committed crimes and then with all sincerity, check the one with more tribal and more hate filled comments directed to the entire tribe where the culprit hails from.

It's not news that crimes committed by Igbos are usually the ones that extend to about 20 pages due to hate filled comments coming from your likes. Yet you prefer to turn the truth on its head. Keep deceiving yourself, thinking there are more bigots in a tribe than in your own tribe. We aren't new to all that crap. After all, you lots did similar nonsense before the elections and tagged Igbos as the enemies of progress when they rejected your god Buhari. Now, you lots are among those gnashing their teeth because of fuel scarcity and economic hardship. Even tho you lots know that you allowed bigotry to lead you into voting the wrong person into power, you still won't admit it because you're ashamed.

For the records, I ain't celebrating Aregbesola's stupidity. I only laughed at funny comments made by Rose, so fûck off my mentions.

Nobody that genuinely voted for Buhari is regretting his/her decision, rather what we all know is that you guys are so pained about your loss that you suddenly realised there was a Biafra. FOOLISH TRIBE.

CreampieAngela:
That is why i often say they are the most confused set of humans on the surface of the earth.
They say they are better than others; they say they have the highest number of billionares in the country; they say their region is the most developed; YET they say they are being marginalised.
How can you be marginalised by those whom you claim to be better than ?

Help me ask them oooo, its cos They are all Greedy. They claim yorubaland is full of mud houses and brown room but They prefer to live 354 days in the mud house and live 1day (xmas day) in their mansions, so ironic

Rose2014:
U heard that unarmed peaceful protesters were killed and your first word is "Great"
It's gotten to the point that you now celebrate trigger happy police for killing innocent civilians yet if it happens to your family, you'll cry to high heavens
You hate Igbos to the point of death yet you're fighting so hard to keep them in Nigeria

I never knew the extent Igbos were hated by you lots until I joined nl.
I encourage my Igbo brethren here, if you see anyone who doesn't buy into Biafra idea, all you need to do is encourage them to join nl politics section for a month. The hatred is real here

Typical ibo man, while you were fanning the embers of ethnic hatred you did not know the tide will change, your candidate lost election and suddenly all Nigerians hate ibos, Typical of all ibos playing the victim once things dont go their way. No agitation in the last government when ibos held more than 50% positions. Greedy lot

Rose2014:
Protesters are only asking for the release of Kanu and a referendum but Buhari is not listening and you're hailing him. What's so difficult in conducting a referendum.

Tomorrow you'll open a thread to complain how he's ignoring the plight of Nigerians and traveling up n down
Ndi ara

See the way you're even jubilating over the killing of unarmed protesters. You show so much hatred for Igbos yet u don't want them to go. Tomorrow we'll claim to be 'one Nigeria'

Very confused tribe

So you now want referendum, tot your Nnamdi Kanu said he will destroy Nigeria seems to me you guys dont really know what you want. You all are just sore losers who couldnt get over your loss of the election, this Biafra agitation will lead no where but to destruction of iboland like the north east is being destroyed presently.

Mynd44:
I dont really trust the minister from Oyo state, Shittu that much. It is not because of his religious affiliations but during the screening, he did not seem like much.

Might have been me though

Many people feel same about that man, even people from his zone only supported his ministerial nomination cos doing otherwise will deny the zone a strong federal appointment. I feel he may have a chance because of his closeness to Buhari but then that is not a guarantee the people of oyo state will vote him

PassingShot:
Ajimobi got elected for two main reasons which are unconnected to his mediocre performance:
1. His challengers were not necessarily better alternatives. Ladoja was revealed to have secretly returned stolen monies through EFCC and people tightly became disappointed in him. Akala and Folarin are nothing to write about not to talk of Makinde who was a novice at that level.

2. Popularity of Sai Buhari and his change mantra really helped him and many others like him then.

My major worries are beyond his tenure. They extend to finding a better governor after him.

I worry about finding a better governor to take over from Ajimobi too. Oyo state is a complex State with diverse interests, if there will be fairness and justice the Oke Ogun zone should produce the next governor but who from that zone has enough political clout to defeat a strong Ibadan or ogbomosho candidate, i don't know of anyone. Lanlehin would have been the perfect choice but his political career is doomed as a result of his impatience and allowing Ladoja to deceive him into decamping from APC to accord. Me think Ajimobi sucessor will come from among the 2 male senators and the Minister.

Mynd44:
There is a reason that Ajimobi got re-elected(a feat which had never happened before) and it is not because he spent 4 years doing nothing. He is one of the governors who are less and less interested in getting into media hype and thibgs like that.

Yes in every place, there is room for improvement but Ajimobi has done well to improve way Onto state looks and he had a lot of capital projects too.

It is never late to set policies and this night just be a continuation o policy already set

Ajimobi may not have performed well in the Agricultural sector and some other sector in his first tenure but he performed well in areas he concentrated like urban renewal, roads, environmental sanitation esp in Ibadan, welfare of State workers and Security. He made it clear that his second term will focus on human capital development, Agriculture, Education and other areas. He is not one to go about with pressmen showing projects, his work is speaking for him, he is a blessing to oyo state, even his political enemies acknowledge this.

Make dem go sidon one corner.

Wen dem dey kill christians and sunni muslims dem no protest. Useless people.

They are not protesting but on a procession, a religious that is common to christianity, islam and traditional religion. Boko haram attacked their members and They lost 20 members.

You wish anyone is bothered about Biafra

Biafra was defeated and buried 50 years ago and there are 3m carcasses to show for it.

You Ibos are only deceiving yourselves with your petty blackmail to attract Buhari's attention .

I am a northerner by the way, and you ibos are the ones scared of declaring Biafra without the SS

For the simple reason that you're parasites that depend on the north for food, the west for commerce, and the south for oyel (not your 1.5% oil)

PARASITE : noun, A tribe that depends on the north for food, west for commerce and south for oil e.g igbo tribe, south east nigeria

PappyMason:
The many sins of Buhari are what is fueling Nigeria's division.

They explored Nigeria's religious fragile fault lines with Jonathan.

In Buhari, they are pushing the northern arrogance.

The Biafra movement is real. Most easterners
Believe passionately in Biafra just as most of you Nijeriyans from the west and north are afraid of it.

You are in extra time.

The same religious Sentiment Gej used to deceive us in 2011 only for him to become a monster afterwards and as for you Biafra cowards you are just sore losers for how else can you explain your sudden agitation after your candidate lost. In the last government, igbos occupied more than 50% of positions you were silently enjoying it while other tribes were wailling now that you have been dethroned, you want to break country. Your lies about being the lost tribes of israel has been busted , israel just wants to use your head and use you to spread Judaism which happens to be the only abrahamic religion lagging behind.

Wanted to mention ilorin but i have not seen many mosques in the north so i held back but to me, ilorin mosques is probably the most beautiful

Built with Niger delta oil money
Bloody islamic parasites

And whose money was used to build the oil Industry? Our groundnut, cocoa, palm oil, timber money was used to develop the oil Industry, you Niger deltans are the ungrateful parasites, the north fought to keep Nigeria one and protect your land from rampaging ibos, if ibos had suceeded in annexing niger delta to Biafra you would have no oil to call your own today.

Op we should understand with Seun on this issues. Some people will try to intimidate Seun and accuse him of ethnic bigotry because of that thread. I will suggest aareonakakanfo, mayoroflagos and others to put head together and come up with another name for the thread that will be acceptable in the politics section or alternatively break the thread down into sections like Yoruba commonwealth politics, economy, culture, etc and post in their respective sections. Oga Seun too should Please acknowledge the role of this thread in calming the ethnic tension that engulfed nairaland in the days before that thread was opened, its actually one of the best things that has ever happened on nairaland.

NA AJIMOBI JO OOO

Respect! I should start taking you serious

Start taking this guy serious? Better not. He is just seeking ATTENTION, all he wrote is bullsh*t and shows he know nothing about politics. The way APC has decided to go about this shows those guys know politics, no wonder They have been beating PDP to the game, if it were PDP in this situation i bet They would have given it to faleke considering he is the party leaders candidate. This same barcanista will shout to high heaven had APC decided to give faleke the ticket.

But he emigrated there, sought for, and acquired their citizenship?

You guys are so smart you sound silly.

Typical of an igbo man, you allow them in your place, make them comfortable and the next thing you know they start hauling insults on you , ungrateful lot. The same british you now insult and hate so much gave you the freedom to operate a pirate radio, allow you air your view on biafra and some of its citizens support you yet you are not satisfied what then is the assurance that even Biafra will satsfy your greed.
