I think the problem of the economy has nothing to do with the leadership, but I believed it was as a result of the the drop in the prices of oil coupled with our lack of productivity. We as a nation must learn to patronize the made in Nigeria products. That is the only way we can go out of this problem.

I am a Wailer, however, I know deep within me it is not the fault of either PMB or Emefiele but our glut for foreign made products that can be obtained locally.
I also feel that government should take the responsibility of showing the example of what it means to patronize locally made goods. But I do not see that happening now with the level of greed and vanity among our political office holders I do not see that coming to pass in the nearest future. So I think we should all brace up for very rough times.


God Bless Nigeria.
God Bless me

I wonder how people still eat rat these days

ozoigbondu:
Rats

As in RAT

The Benue State Government has directed its citizens to stop the eating of rats in the meantime in order to curtail the spread of Lassa Fever.

The state governor, Samuel Ortom, disclosed this to State House correspondents shortly after meeting Vice President Yemi Osinbajo at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

Ortom said the decision was taken because the state had recorded a case of the fever.

Rat is a delicacy popular among the people of the state.
The governor said, “Benue is affected; we have one case of Lassa Fever right now that is under control.

“We have advised our people, rat which is a major carrier, is a delicacy; I am finding it difficult but I have told them to suspend eating rats now until further notice.”

Ortom said he decided to make agriculture a priority programme of his administration because he suspected early enough that a time would come when the nation would face revenue generation challenges.

I really do not believe it anyway. But am wondering how one can steal a budget that is yet to be passed into Law by the National Assembly. But in Nigeria though, anything is possible sha.! In a country where people are constantly struggling to outsmart each other.

It could be the one who stole it had the mind of smuggling in a few amount of cash into the budget. Even if this is possible I wonder how the person will defend it when the National Assembly will ask for the defense.

So mamy babies are in Nairaland now.

Alcatel popstar is N17k plus and not N15k. Thanks

How good is the phone? Am thinking between innjoo halo and Alcatel Popstar which one is better.?

MzPecs:
Silence is the best answer for FOOLS!!!

My GEJ is wise.

You've said it all!

I want to know between innjoo halo and this phone which is better?

I bought my wife the Alcatel pixie 3(4) I have not seen any thing wrong with it. I love it very much. So I need to compare between innjoo halo which is about 14k and this phone which is about 16k.

Fight corruption! Corruption will fight you back!!

Am thinking of getting the phone. Am not camera and game freak kind of person so will it be OK for me?

This government sef!!
Gate every where.
Very soon you will hear saintopus gate!! Where the gate lead to sef no body know.

My friend, the variables aren't the same in both states. Lagos has never had a sitting governor decamp to the opposition to fight APC. When Amaechi left PDP, he left with 2 senators, about 8 Reps and 27 Assembly members to APC. You can't just compare that with Lagos that has always been United. APC is more formidable in Rivers than any other state in the South south. That was why Wike wouldn't allow a free and fair election hold in March and April

APC more formidable in Rivers State? Well, am not aware of that as a Rivers man who lives all my entire life in the state I don't see APC having a say in Rivers, Bayelsa, Delta and Aqwa Ibom state.

For Lagos state if you check the difference in votes cast for the APC gubernatorial candidate that led to the victory of the APC you will notice that the gap was not up to 3000 votes. Now compared this with previous election of Tinubu and Fashola which the gap was very glaring.

Even in this I still give Lagos to APC any day.

I will say it is a win win case for him. Because Rivers state is for PDP any day just like Lagos will be for APC any day.

AkinDavid2:
Are you still on this same page. Even with the revelations!

If you think otherwise then I will say that maybe there will be a PDP governor in Lagos in very short time.

Don't forget to like my comment.

Obas101:
guy, my sincere advice to you dont buy the phone.. the specs are good alright but d components seems like they are cheaply made. for example the camera is 13mp but its not sharp and its blurry, the battery is also bad doesnt last long and finally i had a small crack on my magnum 7 screen and my touch stopped responding i tried repairing it but they only have two centres in nigeria which is lagos and onitsha. bottom line i went to onitsha and the guy fixed it for me i had to spend 7k for dat.. he later told me that the screen and the flex are together and if there is a crack they will have to change the screen totally. a week after dat my screen got cracked again and vowed not to repair it anymore, i abandon it and i'm thinking of buyin the infinix note 2. seriously dont buy it cos u wont enjoy it for long.
also sorry for not replyin you soon enough.. been busy but if you have bought it already i advice u to b careful

Thanks very much I made the order on JUMIA on black Friday but JUMIA sent a message that they can't deliver cause the manufacturer refused to ship the order. So I have made up my mind to get innjoo halo instead or any infinix product.

Thanks very much

Well, they should organize another election I know Rivers state, Bayelsa state, Aqwa Ibom state, Delta state are for PDP for a very long time to come.
Just like Lagos will be for APC in a very long time to come.

Demdem:
Actually, no sane man think this way in a democratic setting. Only nonentities, IPOB touts and jonah-daft cocck suckers think such.

My brother you are very correct! Just like some Buhari Zombies believed that $980 billion was disbursed to Dasuki and others.

But we are fed with many news of how over $980 billion was disbursed. Could be that they were not the people saying all these?

In fact social media court had found them guilty.

They said that they have been singing since they were remanded in EFCC Custody. One would have thought that they will just walk to prison like sheep's led by a Shepherd.



This government sef!

Change we can rely on!

I love social media court more than the real court of law because it makes some people very important.!!!

OP!!! You too talk sef!

Didn't we say that Chibok girls was a scam.
It's aim had been achieved.

An average Hausa family are not concerned if a thousand girls was abducted so long as their preferred candidate PMB is in power.
So OP shift this thread comot here jor!

byrron:
@OP are you ready for another OBJ's letter?

Asking Efcc to investigate Ben's stewardship as NTA's DG simply means you want to probe OBJ's tennure which will only end up opening up loads of corrupt rotten cans of frauds and Illegalities nurtured and executed under OBJ's watch thereby implicating saint OBJ.

His beloved late wife Stella was very instrumental in making his former lover boy Bruce the DG then as well as insuring that NTA was heavily funded then and most of the equipments supplied to NTA then had Stella's name all over it and OBJ gave his consent.

Have you ever heard OBJ say anything negative about Ben before? Hell No

Good thinking! Good product!!

When the EFCC start the probe all he needs do is simple.


1. Tell the world that OBJ gave him $300 million which was approved by the wife

This singular statement has the power to shut PMB, Oshomole, EFCC and APC

Well, nothing would have happened if he had decided to hold on to power.

Maybe at most few individuals would have lost their lives as usual in the northern part of the country. Which is normal, to me I feel the man GEJ does not want to stay any more longer.
This is shown by his refusal to contest the outcome of the elections in court.
He had all the tools available to make sure the outcome of the election go in his favour but decided to allow the process run to its natural end.
'My ambition does not worth the blood of any Nigerian'_GEJ
Many are still in the illusion that their votes oust the President. Well, it is good to feel important sometime because it helps in bolstering our ego.
PMB was wise to have in many occasion thanked the ex President for that single act of good will.
To this end I will say a big thank you to GEJ

What does he mean by major BH attack?
What number of causality constitute a major attack?
Let's assume an attack resulting into 40persons losing their lives could we describe that as a major attack?
If a single American is killed in an insurgent attack it means a lot to an American.
But the case is different in Nigeria where we just hoping that an attack would not result into hundreds of causality.
It is very pathetic how people reason.

Let me stop here before someone tag me a wailing wailer.

You are where you are because it is the best place to stay and learn about love. You would have learnt nothing if you are a Finn.
So love rules all.
You are here on earth to gain very important spiritual lessons you may not have learnt in any other way.

So enjoy!

This Chibok girls issue has achieved its aim. The major players have all been settled!!
Case Closed!!

It was a scam!!

me1234:
This singular action brought tears to my eyes. I don't know why I continue to like this guy. I never use to like him at all. Because in his first tenure I use to wonder if he was governing Ekiti from lagos. He was always in Opebi in their so call government house/ lodge close to my house in Opebi. I will gladly give him my vote if he contest for presidency

Me too!

It's not true Sir. Disregard this info.
