Why is it not priority to federal government, because of its geographical location. exempting federal government on their responsibility to blame the state governor. How maney state governor in your region is building federal road

Afam4eva:
Those names are actually Cathjolic names though the history f the ames may have come from elsewhere. That's why most people that bear them are most likely Igbo and Catholic or atleast one of them.

LadySarah:
I think the op is being mischievous,you see a road named ph in Aba,common sense didnt tell you that its a trunk A road meaning the federal govt owns it.

Mscheeeeew. When I have my trusted old BlackBerry Q10

Speed- Q10 has it

Elegance- Q10 has it

Battery life- (Ehn, it's nothing a new 'follow come' battery cannot solve )

Ruggedness- Q10 is like the old Nokia 3310. I've lost count of how many times I've stepped on it, dropped it and sat on it on hard surfaces yet it remains ever gallant

Key pad- OH YAAS!!!

So why will I spend several valuable man hours queuing to buy a phone that will be yesterday's fad in just a few months?

Wo, Blackberry for life jor!!!

The reference was not just about the present governors but their leaders in general and in history. You are just referring to governors of just two years apart from Rochas. Even with the present govts, give it to anambra and ebonyi. Enugu, Imo have had past govs who had clear blueprint for development

eyeview:
I think the problem with most of you kids is that what you know of south east is limited to what you read on nairaland. Who told you that the south east leaders are not developing their zone. Rather they have developmental programs that has been running far longer than you know. And what you don't know is that the development in the south east are not govt centred but private sector driven too. Most of the infrastructure you will see in the east are not in anyway from the govt talkless of the Federal govt. Even down to the town unions in various cities tax themselves to fund capital projects such as boreholes, transformers, road grading, culverts etc. And when they are blessed with illustrous sons, you see them delve into more projects.
I think you all should stop this bereft nonsense you post on NL that lacks depth and knowledge

Efewestern:
you are not alone on this. to think I campaigned for this man is unbelievable, thought the guy will deliver, never knew he was more clueless than GEJ.

What a pity we have the likes of atiku and the other criminals campaigning, we just don't have option, just vote between two thieves.. that's the situation we are right now in this country.

The presidency has stated that President Muhammadu Buhari never made a promise to Nigerians in 2015 that he would not seek medical treatment abroad if elected.

His Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, yesterday disclosed this while appearing as a guest on Focus Nigeria, a programme on Africa Independent Television (AIT).


The spokesman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bolaji Abdullahi, who appeared alongside Adesina, also said the much talked about promise the president allegedly made was false.

Abdullahi said: “I was the Deputy Director of the policy directorate of the campaign, I was there from the beginning to the end.”

“So many people came to join the group, some from even outside the country. Then one day, we were in a meeting, then one gentleman who heads one of the international NGOs in the country brought this list of 100 items that he was proposing that we should push out as the promise of Mr President to Nigerians.

“We circulated and asked everyone to study it and come back the following day so that we look at which ones we can own and which ones we need to reject.


“I remember that Number 1 on that list was to make the President say that ‘When I become President, I will not travel abroad for medical treatment’.

“And I remember we rejected that immediately, because we said we didn’t know what this man was dealing with; we didn’t know who his doctors had been, how could we say this for him?

“But you know what happened? One of us in the group just released the document.”

Adesina backed Abdullahi’s claim, confirming that the president was never aware of any such promise, let alone agree to it.


He said, “I can confirm that even the President himself, who was a candidate then, was not aware. The very week I resumed this assignment, I raised some things with the President. I said, this and this and this were promised, and the President said ‘When did I promise these things?’

“I said there is a document titled ‘100 things Buhari will do in 100 days’. He never knew about that document. He had to ask people to fetch that document for him, and it was the first time he was seeing it.

“So there were promises that people made during the campaign on his behalf.”

Adesina went further to blame the past administrations of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for the poor state of healthcare in the country.

He said the situation was a major reason for the president’s medical trips abroad.

He said, “There was a time we could have afforded it, but the money was not properly spent. That’s why the President keeps lamenting that for a certain number of years consistently, oil prices stood at $100 per barrel, going as high as $120 per barrel at a time, and we were producing about 2.1 million barrels daily.

“Then when he (Buhari) came, oil prices plunged to $37 per barrel, so he called the Central Bank Governor and said, ‘Do we have savings?’ and the Governor said ‘No savings.’

“The question is, ‘What did they do with that money? Why didn’t they fix our hospitals in all those years that we had boom?’

“And you know that since 2015, things have been down and they are just looking up now. As things look up, if they ever ever get back to where we were, if we ever get back to $100 per barrel for oil under the Buhari administration, it’s doubtful.

“But if we ever get there, you can be sure that a lot will get done, because this is a prudent administration and the money of Nigerians will be used to serve Nigerians.”

DAILY POST recall that the president has made two trips to London this year alone to seek treatment for an undisclosed illness.

His most notable trip gulped 103 days, a medical vacation that caused public discontent resulting in many calling for his resignation from office.

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has said the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, John Nwodo and South East governors sacrificed its leader, Nnamdi Kanu to appease the North in order to obtain political appointments.

IPOB noted that despite the sacrifice, the President Muhammadu Buhari’s government has belittled and humiliated people of the South East.

The group made the claim while berating the organization over the failure of the Federal Government to replace the sacked Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal with an Igbo man, “despite lobbying discreetly and openly.”

IPOB noted that in spite of the “lobbying” Buhari still went ahead to replace Lawal with a fellow Northerner.

A statement signed by its spokesperson, Emma Powerful reads, “We the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the command and leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu the greatest prophet, seer and visionary of all time, note with sadness and utter humiliation, the belittling of Ohaneze Ndigbo, South East Governors and the entire Eastern political class over the rejection of an Igbo man for the lowly position of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) by Buhari’s administration.

“Despite lobbying discreetly and openly for this somewhat inconsequential position of SGF for months, the entire political class in the South East were roundly rebuffed by Major General Muhammadu Buhari, who instead gave the position to another Northerner. This has left the supposed apex socio-cultural organisation to take to the pages of newspaper to vent their frustrations at Buhari. A very unedifying spectacle unworthy of leaders of a once proud and gifted race.

“To make matters worse, this public rejection of Ohaneze Ndigbo and repudiation of the values of the Igbo political elite by the Buhari administration is confirmation, if such were needed, that the hasty proscription and banning of IPOB was a costly mistake on their part. They failed to appreciate that without the impetus and urgency that IPOB provided, any request made to the Government of Nigeria to right the injustices meted out to Easterners is bound to fail.

“Chief Nnia Nwodo and the 5 South East governors should, without delay, apologise to the people for misleading them into thinking that sacrificing IPOB and Nnamdi Kanu will appease the core North to the extent of granting them their sole wish of Igbo political appointments into Buhari’s administration.

“It is imperative to state for record purposes, that it was the proscription of IPOB by Ohaneze Ndigbo and South East governors that gave the military the impetus to hastily tag IPOB a terrorist organisation. We must not also forget that it was this same request for political appointment into the office of the SGF that led Ohaneze and South East governors to sanction Operation Python Dance II with its attending deaths and imprisonment without trial of IPOB family members.

“Our ancestors will be turning in their graves to think that the blood of 92 young men and women- 28 of them killed in Kanu’s compound, were sacrificed for the promise of mere political appointment that never materialised. This is the worst humiliation our people have had to endure for nearly 50 years. A once proud race has been reduced, through poor political calculation, to trading the blood of their children in exchange for nonexistent political appointment.

“Hopefully this humiliating episode in the history of our people will teach all and sundry a lesson that leadership requires a lot more than making yourself acceptable to your enemies in return for material gain. Freedom is a painstaking and arduous process of sacrifice, even when it may appear expedient to take the compromised easy way out.

“With this shameful episode, the Igbo political class have now lost out on every front, because they chose to destroy the only hope of the people, IPOB, just to prove to Arewa core North how loyal they are. As at today, Igbo political actors don’t have independence, they don’t have confederation, they don’t have much vaunted restructuring, no second Niger Bridge, Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway is not fully rehabilitated, Enugu-Onitsha Expressway is getting worse by the day, no infrastructural development and finally their much cherished SGF has eluded them too.

“They can now see that only IPOB has the solution to the plethora of problems bedevilling our people in Nigeria today. It is never too late for Ohaneze Ndigbo leadership and South East Governors to say they got their priorities wrong.”[/b]

yoruba demon

A Nigerian guy (yoruba) who goes after a young lady's heart with no intention of loving her. They are typically met at parties, and would mostly wear white agbada (clothing).

They sometimes are seen in groups.

Example: Oladimeji is a known yoruba demon

A Yoruba demon is typically a young man of Yoruba (the Yoruba is a tribe predominantly found in South West Nigeria ) descent who has the uncanny gift to effortlessly make ladies fall head over heels in love with him. He is naturally a gifted smooth talker and Casanova and prides himself in been able to acquire a huge followership of female admirers and side chicks. He is also gifted at absolving himself of any responsibility in his relationships. Generally, he is a seductive cock-tail of sweet and bitter.
There is no going back after you date a Yoruba demon, you keep coming back for more.

Just recently I said CERTIFICATE IS OVERRATED; this is a basic reason.

A girl committed suicide recently at OAU coz she had a glorious E in a course, not even an F.
NOW, this one graduated well, yet she is battling emotional stress coz her CERTIFICATE ISN'T ABLE TO FETCH HER JOB.

YOU CAN BE A JOB CREATOR if you change your perception about certificates.
