Why is this on front page? Why bring something that wishes our president dead to the front page? I just dont get it.

Looking at this picture, theres something that strikes me. He relative peace they enjoy in the UK. Head of UK Police cannot come and be pocketing on the streets of Abuja like a normal citizen. This should spur our policymakers to create good institutions and make systems work in this county.

Has anyone noticed that the House of Representatives has been very passive in this dispensation while the Senate is somewhat busy and active?

Your observation is right. Politics and sentiments aside, Saraki has been able to set good agenda for the Senate. In fact the Senate is active, responsive to the yearnings of the people. From stopping the proposed hike in data price to investigations into the plight of IDPs which brought up the issue of 248million grass cutting contract.

What are u sayin? So as u said they "threatened" him whatever that means, he shdnt handover abi...maybe Obama shdnt handover becos Trump wl surely reverse some his policies abi?

Until he is dragged out like Gbagbo before he wl do d needful abi? Lets c hw it ends but if it gets down to d wire, u sure kno Jammeh wont b leavin wt only a bloodied nose!

I'm not saying he should hold on to power. But the opposition in that country should not have behaved like kids. For someone that has been in power for 22years to willingly concede to defeat. I think the opposition should have acted well, and we won't have this situation on our hands.

Even a madman has followers. I disconnected from a friend after he told me a prophet made them swallow sand.

I blame the opposition in that country for Jammeh's action. They threatened him with fire and brimstone and still wants him to handover to the president elect.

You people should stop posting all this prophecy stuff on front page. Enough abeg.

An interesting read. I think we need more volunteers in this field. First responders like paramedic guys are very important in emergency management. Please can anyone here tell me where I can get skills to render help in an emergency instead of taking pictures and watching people struggle for their last breath. I'll gladly make out time to learn. There's this feeling of accomplishment that compares to none when I'm engaged in a life saving activity.

THE REASON

“The cost of printing N50 is almost the same as N1,000. Printing small denominations costs more than the value, and with the present economic situation, it makes sense to print higher notes, which can be done locally by the NSPM,” one of the sources explained."

THE IMPLICATION


implication of the situation was that prices of goods were likely to increase since there were no smaller currencies in circulation.
He said, “A bread seller is likely to increase the cost of bread from N350 to N400 simply because he does not want to deal with the difficult task of getting change.
“The same goes for a bus conductor and so forth. This act alone is enough to add to the hardship of the average Nigerians; N10 or N50 may not mean anything to some, but it means a whole lot to millions of Nigerians living in poverty. So the government should do something about this.”

GOVERNMENT'S USUAL RESPONSE


There is no scarcity of smaller denomination notes in the market. People are complaining because we did not make provision for mints to be supplied in smaller denominations during the festive season.
“You see, people are fond of abusing these denominations by spraying them to be stepped on during weddings and other ceremonies. The abuse is even worse during the festive season; so, we decided to make scarce the denominations. But it’s not that we have not been printing them.
“Yes, we haven’t printed abroad but we also print locally, which we have been doing.”

Nice on Mr Josh. Your threads are always on point. You and front page are like

DOA

He has now realized he's alone. Now he wants to join the party and continue to enjoy the spoils of being a member.

Who forced these Telcos to slash their data prices in the first place? Did they not keep unveiling new data plans and prices to attract market share? Did anyone force them to give out all the freebies they did? If they felt d prices were unrealistic, healthy business plans would have seen them offer better services for slightly increased prices on their own network, not banding together with the connivance of the NCC to unilaterally increase prices by as much as 200%!

That is bad faith and large scale monopoly which should not be the case. There is supposed to be competitive marketing and prices based on quality of services rendered. How effective have their data services been anyway?

Exactly my thoughts.

The NASS does not need the president to pass it into law

There are two things involved in a bill becoming an act. 1. Either the president assents after both chambers have concurred on the bill or the NASS decide to override the presidents power of assent by vetoing it. What I'm sure of is that this NASS will not thread the path of the latter. Not on a controversial bill such as amendment of CCT Act. So, the bill is DOA just like the NABRO bill. The op has discussed the legality of the bill. Thanks sir

No need for argument on this issue. Mr. President will NEVER assent to this bill. And I repeat NEVER. The toothless national assembly cannot veto it. Shey national assembly that refused to veto there own NABRO bill

It's a pity there's no childcare structure in this country. NGO's should pls find the girl before someone makes her wife no. 14

It's a good news for Nigerians and the parents of the abducted girls. After all that's what sincere Nigerians want. Just wonder why some people choose not to want to believe

so sad.

Please go for check up regularly to avert sudden death.

Nobody fights over the death or properties of a poor man. He dies, they bury him and everybody lives on without wahala.

What a waste. And the state will be complaining of not having funds to pay salaries. Smh for Nigeria.

"The first major demonstration held on November 29 and 30, 1947. Many women took part. As they neared the Alake’s palace, she commanded the marchers to stop, closed her eyes and told them that all those who were afraid should leave while her eyes were closed. None withdrew. They maintained vigil during which they sang abusive songs."

What's wrong with our security operatives and running to the media to share sensitive reports? Any information this man knows has become irrelevant to an extent. They think BH boys are illiterates that don't read news abi?

Please let's cultivate the habit of drinking water. It's economical and safe.

Details of the Frivolous Petitions (Prohibition) Bill 2015 as presented on the floor of the Senate.

I think there should be advocacy on other methods of having babies like legal adoption. If there is no demand there can't be supply.

What is happening in Kogi state APC is an aberration. How can votes be transfered from one individual to the other. Imagine I voted for an Audu/Faleke ticket because of their individualism. How can my vote now be transfered to someone I never supported.

That's exactly my point. Kogi people voted for Audu/Faleke and not Bello. It's pure common sense. This means the people will be getting a governor they didn't vote for. This means some polling units will deliver a governor for the majority.

Just imagine! what makes a committee "juicy"? Impunity has finally taken a new dimension.

I'm in support of medical examination for intending corp members. Some are not built for such daily rigorous routines subjected to while on camp. Rest in Peace Dear.
