i believe this is a deliberate sabotage.
They wanted to break that bridge as part of their silent war against Ndigbo.

Just when you think you've heard it all lol..You conspiracy theorists never seem to get tired. Who has been dishing u guys with those theories since ur IPOB director had been arrested?

The freaking tribunal is made up of a bunch of illiterates masquerading as lawyers. I'm ashamed on their behalf for the so called grounds for nullification. The sections of the electoral law cited as the foundation for the conclusion can only be invoked if there was a challenge to the results of the primary by a member of the PDP. It cannot be invoked by a person who has no locus whatsoever to challenge the primary. APC's candidate had no locus to challenge PDP's primary. As if she knew, she did not do anything in that regard in her petition. Her lawyers knew she had no basis to question the emergence of the governor as the candidate for PDP. The tribunal in its effrontery, raised the issue suo moto. The tribunal does not have the freedom to raise issues not raised by either of the parties. Doing so, will be fatal to the case as it will give the impression that it sided with one of the parties thereby depriving the other his/her fundamental rights to fair hearing. Citing the electoral law, at best, was an attempt to grasp at straw in attempt to arrive at a preordained result. I guess the lady was not able to prove electoral malpractice that would justify a judgement in her favor. if there were to be hope for the judiciary, the judgement will not stand the test of time in the appellate courts. Every member of that tribunal, who is a lawyer, has to be sanctioned. It's very shameful. Mind you, I'm just an obsever.

One simple question for you: Please do you have a copy of the full petitions of the APC legal team to the Taraba Governorship Elections petition tribunal to be so sure that team didn't include challenging the improperly held primaries of the PDP as a ground for their prayer, for the election of the PDP candidate to be nullified? I'll be so happy if you can oblige me this. Thanks.

If there were Nigerians capable of doing those jobs, Dangote wouldn't go to China to recruit. Lets train enough Nigerians before asking the immigrants to leave, except we want shoddy work, in which case we can ask them to leave and deploy substandard craftsmen to do jobs meant for qualified artisans.

Did you see any where in that article where Buhari ordered the multinationals to stop bringing in "expatriates" and artisans abroad. Every right thinking govt knows the statement made by the directors that the shortage of competent construction artisans in the country had forced them to bring in foreigners,is an indictment on Nigeria and Nigerians; and the long-term solution to this anomaly is revamping the vocational training institutions which is the crux of this article. Simply because you want to appeal to the emotions of never-do-well idiots that call their country a zoo and get cheap,meaningless likes from the same set of hyper-deluded ethnocentric bigots, you had to put up an unrelated post on a move that should instead be lauded.

blackpanda:
Why is it so hard to get this into your thick skull. The constitution says there must be 36 ministers. Unfortunately we dont have the funds to run 36 minstries.

Is this so hard to understand PMB has to find a way of managing the economy while adhering to the constitution.

Must there be 36 ministries before you can get 36 ministers?..how was it done during the time of OBJ, Yar'Adua and GEJ that it didn't generate all these unnecessary distractions and confusions..In a ministry,u have a substantive minister and a minister of state; meaning u don't need to have 36 ministries to fit in all of these ministers.

Are you implying that yoruba individuals are responsible for the lagos IGR.

5 south east states were compared with 5 southwest states which is an equal comparison

We're comparing regions here. Lagos is part of the SW and the most advanced and developed of the region and you left that out, saying you're making a fair comparison. What's fair about that when you included all the States in the SE in your comparisons, including the ones doing well and the ones not doing well. I'm not saying only Yorubas are responsible for Lagos IGR but the question I asked u was: "Are u implying that the contributions of Yoruba individuals, SMEs,CEOs, banks
and companies alone in IGR in Lagos is not up to
N3.8bn out of Lagos' N276.1bn IGR?". Answer that honestly and I'll know you want an intelligible debate.

kettykin:
Anyone ever noticed how some very funny people have resorted to avoiding this thread. Hypocrisy and false patriotism is really a very bad thing

Expectedly there isn't much economic activity in Ekiti and Osun states in the SW,hence the low figures there but overall the difference between the five states of SE and SW is actually N3.8bn and u people deliberately left out Lagos because in your warped minds,Lagos has ceased being SW..and are u implying that the contributions of Yoruba individuals, SMEs,CEOs, banks and companies alone in IGR in Lagos is not up to N3.8bn out of Lagos' N276.1bn IGR..so whatever way u look at it, the SW region has the highest IGR. This thread should instead be one that calls for sober reflections for you guys as u can see Anambra with all the noise of largest Market in Africa, Obiano this,Obiano that, can't even measure up to states like Ondo and Ebonyi without any visible big markets. This further buttresses the points we tell most of you that make noise that u control Lagos economy, that having shops all the place in Alaba, Ladipo etc, like u have in Lagos,doesn't translate to much when discussing IGR and contributions.. I hope u learn but as usual I expect the chest-beating and empty vituperations.

Many young ladies ought to learn from this but they won't..That a guy can fvck very well and always make u laugh,takes u clubbing and being lively when you're around him doesn't mean he'll become a good husband cos trust me,when the reality of marriage sets in,just like this case,all those fantasies will wash away and you'll face the real hard truth..Only a man of strong character,ambition and drive will be able to give u the kind of support you want in a marriage. Many ladies have chased their real husbands away under the guise of he's boring,too career-oriented,too serious-minded and bookish. Op,I pray God helps u cos I'm sure a very goodhearted "boring" guy may have come around in the past but you've chased him away,cos truth be told u saw all these characters or tendencies in him before marriage but the fun and temporary fantasy shielded u from reality.

bodeloja:
It is only dirty yorubas that have to invite a person as a guest only to attack them.


Something that the entire world refer to as cowardice. But i suppose it is yoruba culture to be cowards.


Can America invite a guest and kill, jail or harm them? No! It is undiplomatic, uncivilised and a war crime. This is the strongest nation on the planet, that am talking about. Likewise the poorest nations observe the same standard. Yorubas are the only exception to this in the world.

Are u implying that Yorubas took buses to Onitsha, Aba, Enugu etc and started pleading with Igbos to come and live in their lands or what? When a guest tells his host to his face that without him,his host cannot survive and openly disregard the traditional institution of the host,that moment he stops being a guest and will be treated as an adversary. Ever since the shops have been closed, have Akure residents not been surviving? Talk to your brothers to behave themselves and not mistake the civility and hospitality of the Yorubas for stupidity.. How many Yorubas depend on making a living in the SE as against the millions of Igbos and more still trooping in,in the SW? You guys should be grateful instead.

I can't see Yomiprof on that list.

Tripleclick:
independent thinkers indeed!!! jonathan won south west vote cus of obasanjo, so u gux r frudstars

Is it the same Obasanjo that could not help his daughter Iyabo return to the Senate and his party PDP even lost in his ward then or another one? The earlier u know we in the south-west don't play clannish politics, the better for u. If Buhari doesn't perform to expectations come 2019,we boot him out. That's how we roll..we take no prisoners at all.

francizy:
Enugu people needs to drop this their ajebo cum flexing lifestyles and face these murderers head on! I trust they can't do this kinda shits in Anambra, Abia or Imo states without being routed. Enugu better wake up!

And the chest beating continues. I thought all Igbos are brave and all Yorubas are cowards according to NL Ndigbos. Never knew Enugu are the cowards amongst u. If it happens in Imo, you'll say Okorocha is an Hausa man that's why. Instead of insulting Yorubas, u guys should have understood that Fulani herdsmen menace is a national issue.

ExInferis:
Why are Isa Yuguda, Ramalan Yero, Aliyu Babangida, Ibrahim Shema walking free?

Im a full blood northerner but this anti corruption war seems pretty lopsided to me.

You saw that they said indigenes of the state wrote petitions to EFCC..As a northerner,what is stopping you from sending a petitions with facts and figures just like this one about your state governor to EFCC like they've done instead of screaming lopsidedness. Or u were not in Nigeria when Sule Lamido and Dasuki cases started?

ayokellany:
Was that why Osho as to go to court with the help of Tinubu n co to win in his mandate right ?

As in,it's very annoying,some idiotic comments one finds on this forum. The new story now is GEJ helped Osho become governor, like GEJ went about Edo state campaigning for Osho and even held the thumbs of Edo electorates to vote in Osho..Fools everywhere.

danyeb:
if you know of any jx let me know to search for it

Google and download an android app called Mobdro..quite nice if you have a good 3G connection where you are.

It's quite unfortunate I share a country with brain-dead people accusing Buhari of indirectly killing Alams. The mentality of the average politician like Dickson is that receiving treatment in a Nigerian hospital is a death sentence, when it is their duty to provide well-equipped hospitals with qualified personnel. What is more unfortunate is that most of the people echoing what this idiot of a governor is saying have no option than to use these hospitals as they can't afford medicare abroad. A really hopeless situation.

sparkleRed:
high tym u stopped making dis mistake Udo Udoma is from akwaibom d south south region u guys need to learn geographical zoning of each states * deep sigh* east and south south re different even Dr Osagie representing edo is south south nt east pls

You should have the person u quoted on Nairaland and his antecedents here. Someone classifying Fashola and Abebayo Shittu as Northerners should never be taken seriously lol.

CharlyNick:
*567*3*4*2#= #250 for One Week [UNLIMITED]

Are u sure of this?..please I want u to do this and give me the response Mtn gives u: dial *567*3*4*2#, then instead of choosing option 1 for activate, choose option 4 which is offer description, and let me know if unlimited is written there.. thanks

engrhorla:
OK tnx..is it 25mins daily or for 7days?

It's 25mins daily for 7 days, meaning a total of 25X7=175mins for that 7 days.

Birniwa:
Migrate to MTN Biz Plus and you'll be making all MTN-MTN calls at the discounted rate of 11k/s which translates to N6.6/min.

What's d code to migrate to this Mtn biz plus plan?

CharlyNick:
Have u tried it and u were given Just 25minutes? This is not funny o.......

There is an Updated code for this. Which one did u use?

Yh that's what I'm using now. The code is *567*3*6#, u get 600 naira daily for mtn to mtn calls only when u dial *559*4 to check after subscribing. It's just that the tariff it uses is 40kobo/seconds which translates to 24 naira per min and 25 minutes daily. To verify,after dialling *567*3*6#, press 1 to proceed,then press 4 which is the option for offer description to see the details..which updated code are you talking about?

LOUIS6:
.The #250 is unlimited calls for one week

There's nothing like unlimited in any of these plans..there are daily allocated minutes to them. Ironically that of #100 is better than that of #250 as it gives u 25 mins daily for 7 days as against 20 mins daily for #250..cheers

openmine:
Good but airtel is doing far better...still enjoying my 9gb for just #3500 and 4.5gb for #2500

When u know deep down within u that Airtel 9gb is equivalent to Glo or mtn 3gb lol..enjoy

engrhorla:
Yes ooo..i even used pass 25mins yday..

Mk una no dey holla CC on top dis kind matter ja re..else dem fit end dis awoof oooo

Coz I dey over-rock am

By d way d 25mins is to MTN only while I get spam msgs frm MTN for 15mins bundle to all ntwks for 100naira

My friend the plan u did is 50 naira everyday. Just make sure you don't have to 50 naira in your phone the next day,otherwise they'll remove it lol. When u dial *567*3*4# and press 1 to proceed, press 4, the option for offer description, you'll see it clearly written there. I think The best of these plans is that of 100 naira to get 25 mins daily and will be auto renewed after 7 days. The code is *567*3*6#..always choose option 4 (Offer description) after choosing 1 to proceed before subscribing to any plan so u know d full detail.

According to Annie Idibia, these young ladies are spitting images of their fathers.

Do you agree with her?

U can also add Dangote and the daughter Halima. Pic attached.

TheSonOfMark:
I ordered one on Friday and it got delivered to me this morning. THE FAST CHARGING TECHNOLOGY claim is real! The UI can be tweaked. No external SD card so I ordered a 32GB SD card along with it.
It was 69% when I unboxed it. In about an hour, it was fully charged.
Later in the day when I'm less busy, I'd explore it.♦

How can one go about tweaking the UI of this phone.. I'm not impressed with d UI/display at all.

hinwazaka:
Of course they are not like them. They are less intelligent, less independent, less charismatic, less dignified, less astute, in fact they are too below par, to be compared to the duo of Iweala, Stella and DIEZANI. And that is why they might end up FAILING WITH FLYING COLOURS.

Empty head, take a dictionary and learn the meaning of duo and see it's trio that applies in your statement there, before coming to show your stupidity in public.

MadCow1:
Amaechi .- Minister of the Niger Delta Ministry or Minister of Works or Minister of Finance.


Lai Mohammed. - Minister of Information.. His "WAILING WAILERS" remark is now a Nationally accepted phrase and soon to be added to the Oxford Dictionary as an English work to describe haters.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought it was Femi Adesina, SA to the President on Media and Publicity that came up with that "Wailing Wailers" phrase and not Lai Mohammed. Amaechi is a graduate of English and Literature believe. How can u tip such a person for Minister of Finance. Someone without a background in Economics or Finance. Nawa to you oo lol.

Shymm3x:
Isn't it the same story with Nigerians living in the US? You mean all those Nigerian cab drivers all over New York City just have naij accent but they aren't Nigerians, no? All those Nigerians on canal street aren't Nigerians? The ones all over Brooklyn who look like they just left the boat aren't Nigerians?

When did the population of Nigerians in the UK get to 2million where there aren't even 2million black Africans in the UK? A lot of you just get gassed off London and start throwing millions around. I doubt there are up to 500,000 Nigerians even in London where 80% of Nigerians in the UK live.

As soon as I saw Peckham in North London - I knew this clown has no clue about what he is saying. Peckham is in South London. And statistically there should be more Nigerians around Thamesmead/Bexley and Thurrock axis (maybe Havering) than Peckham today. It changed time ago but a lot of Nigerians still come to Peckham to shop tho.

Anyway, the hustle is real.

True that..more Nigerians around that Lewisham/Woolwich/Thamesmead/Abbey Wood area than Peckham these days.

g4everybody:
I dont want 2 blive anything comming out of this administration, because they all turn out to b lies

Check again. This is Vanguard o, not The Nation, Punch, Sahara Reporters or Premium Times u people call APC media outfits when the story doesn't suit you but quote when they support your claims.

luvmijeje:
Please please please, Nigerians that will there shouldn't go there to hold placards in support of corruption. Don't go there to disgrace this country internationally.

What are you saying. We already have such people on this thread. By their comments, you shall know them. If only they could make it to London.. Fools

emilyone:
I wonder how Stella odua got into the Senate despite all the atrocities she has committed when she was a
Minister.

You and sensible Nigerians believe she committed atrocities but her people who see the country as a zoo believe she was being witch-hunted and rewarded her with a Senate seat for giving them "International" airport in Enugu and being the "best" Aviation minister in the world. There goes the reason why it'd be difficult for this country to progress. These people steal with reckless abandon and they have numerous lapdogs and tribal warlords cum sympathizers that abound here and all other social media, to defend them even though some of them find it hard to eat 3-square meal and are unemployed.

superstar3:
You just busted the wailer's bubble.

Busted what? Didn't you hear when the OP TonyeBarcanista was telling the guy u quoted that Punch is an APC media outfit, but was using Premium Times as one of the links to support his claim for this senseless thread. This is the same Premium Times they've referred time and time again as APC newspaper also. It's sad having people like the OP as one's compatriot, talking about who should take praise or not, over a woman who they wanted her and her principal,GEJ to continue in office beyond 2015.
