Politics › SHAME Or APPLAUSE - Nigeria To Start Producing Pencil In 2 Years, Says Minister by simpleseyi(op): 7:45am On Jan 04, 2016
Minister of Science and Technology, Dr Ogbonnaya Onu, has said that the country will begin local production of pencils in the next two years.
After a facility tour of Projects Development Institute (PRODA), Enugu State, Onu said the project would create over 400,000 jobs in line with the vision of the current administration.
He said that it was wrong for the country to be importing pencils when it had the capacity to produce them.
“It is unthinkable that 55 years after independence, Nigeria ss still not producing pencils when we have the human and material resources in the country.
“PRODA has to produce pencils for Nigeria and they have given me the assurance that this can be done and that with pencil manufacture here, we will be creating 400,000 new jobs.
“The (Muhammadu) Buhari administration is committed to creating new jobs and growing our economy,” he said.
The minister said that the ministry would give PRODA the necessary assistance to realise the project.
He said that the agency could do more than it was doing now with the needed support.
He said that the country could leverage on pencil production to increase its foreign earnings.
“For the information of Nigerians, pencil is not produced anywhere in West Africa, so I am directing PRODA to realise this within the next years,” he said.
Onu said that another area of interest was in the production of Nigerian made six-cylinder engines.
“The six-cylinder engine is one thing they must produce.
“This is a mandate they have to work on because once we have the capacity to produce our own engine, then many of our defence and manufacturing requirements will be met.
“We need to build the capacity for self-reliance in Nigeria. We are tired of copying others and importing all sorts of things. We want others to come to Nigeria and learn,” he said.

Even if Nnamdi kanu called niger deltans cowards and so what? What of the people who called niger deltans drunk fishermen odechukwu, dullard, and called their women shepopotamus, umbrella and other derogatory names.

Niger deltans should wake up and do the needful, your oil has been taken over by thieves, the same thieves pushed your son out of office to install a demented, illiterate soldier as their leader instead of a PhD holder.

The same people are on the verge of sending your daughter deziani to jail, your son Goodluck Jonathan to prison and your defenders tompolo and Asari to the dungeon.
I repeat niger deltans should get up from their slumber and be wise.
Dear senseless ex-militant, this is to notify you that revenue from oil is contributing less than 20% to the 2016 budget as presented by Baba Mubammadu Buhari and prepared by the erudite Senator Udoma Udoh Udoma who is one of the very few learned South Southerner. Buhari is moving Nigeria's economy away from oil dependency. So, your oil is becoming useless little by little. Very soon, I mean very very soon, with the way oil price is going down at the international market, you people will start hawking your oil in beer bottles the same way kerosine is hawked in my village or you will join your brothers the jobless IPOB youths in their drug smuggling business.

Mind you, your sons and daughters who you listed above will sent to the prison with a very long jail term and there is nothing you can do about it, if you go back to the creeks where you actually belongs, the Nigeria Army will use you for shooting practice.

PDP created, funded and nurtured Boko Haram for 8 years. Now, the nonentities want Baba Buhari to completely destroyed the Boko Haram in 6 months. Don't we all think that they may be insaned? The FG has technically destroyed the Boko Haram. There is no single Nigerian territory under Boko Haram unlike under PDP and the clueless one when Boko Haram hoisted their bloody flag on Nigerian soil and controlled several local governments in the North East. Boko Haram cannot attack Army, Navy, Airforce, Police or even Boys' Scout barrack again unlike under PDP and the clueless drunk when Boko Haram will write letters to military authorities to inform the military that they(Boko Haram) will attack them(military). What a shame. I bow down my head in shame for Goatluck Jonascam. So, Boko Haram is now battling for survivial by planting bombs on children and sending them to market and religious places because they(Boko Haram) cannot launch conventional attacks they launch severally under the clueless one.

Femi Aribisala has been wailing before the election, after the election lost, I expect him to commit suicide. All his lovers should pray that the new musician in town who also doubles as ATM called Dasuki Sambo should not remember to mention Femi Aribisala's name because if he does, then Femi Aribisala will be put behind the bars.

Boko Haram has been killing thousands of Nigeria and we have been shouting Buhari, how many of us still remember that a Court in Nigeria granted bail to Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume our current Senate Majority after captured Boko Haram members provided proves that Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume is one of their major sponsors.

Kanu Nnamdi is very proud to say that he is a threat to the territorial integrity of Nigeria, so he should remain behind the bars. No court will give any order to release a terrorist that Buhari or DSS will obey. If you are not satisfied with this, kindly declare the war you have been threatening.
Politics › Re: How Bendel Girls Battled Biafra – Ogbemudia by simpleseyi: 6:20pm On Dec 28, 2015
MichaelSokoto:
Without arms what did you do?

The girls were told to go to the Biafran troops and get for us some arms and ammunition. And everyone they brought, we paid for it. Remarkably, they did. There was one girl, I saw her a few months ago and she is now an old woman, she brought twelve rifles and about 20,000 bullets. I said to her, how did you get these? She said somebody organized a get together, so she attended and incidentally, the leader of the Biafran troops was interested in her.

So, she told the man, I don’t want any money from you, my brother wants to be a hunter and wants to kill elephants, so I need weapons and ammunition to do this. The young man said that is simple, he was a major in rank. So, he told her to bring a taxi, and it was in that taxi that they loaded the rifles and ammunition. So we started.
Biafra soldiers gave out their riffles and bullets to Bendel girls in exchange for pusssies and bobbies just as Boko Haram kill themselves for 70 virgins in their imaginary heaven. Can anyone see any similarity? And these are the miscreants that wants to fight the Nigerian Army, maybe we should ask Biafra soldiers to first go and test their strength against the Fulani herdsmen.

Politics › North Will Reject Buhari, APC In 2019 —iwuanyanwu by simpleseyi(op): 12:50pm On Dec 28, 2015
CHIEF Chyna Iwuanyanwu, former aspirant for the position of national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) in this interview express­es confidence that his party would regain lost grounds in 2019, once it restores zoning principle which was observed in the breach in the last two general elections.

‘’Most of the Northern elites who are elite, who belong to the aristo­cratic class, they are scared about the despotism that is going on now, but they just wanted power to come to the north. Power has come to the North but this isn’t the power they are look­ing for!’’

Excerpts:

There is apprehension in the air over the ongoing investigation of al­leged diversion of funds meant for arm purchase into PDP Presidential campaign funds. What is your take on this unsavoury development?


Well, you know that this govern­ment came to power under the man­tra of change and anti-corruption. So, they were just playing to the emotions of the country, just playing to the gal­lery. The moment you tell a poor man that you are going to bring a big man down, he is very happy and expect­ant. So, it is natural, pulling down syndrome is what they are catching on, they know the mood of the nation. Because as far as I am concerned, yes the PDP has clearly stated its posi­tion, we are totally for the anti-cor­ruption drive of the government, but it mustn’t be politicized, it mustn’t be vindictive, it mustn’t be selective. It must be holistic and the first question I am asking is, when did it start? Did corruption start with Jonathan, or did it start even with PDP in 1999? What about the whole lot of things that were done under military regimes. So, the question is, where do we begin, and why do you begin, where you are be­ginning? That’s number one.

The other one is that there are cer­tain elements that are coming out now that are very dangerous to this nation. In the history of this country, secu­rity votes as the name connotes, can be used to advance any cause for the stability of this country, stability of government.

So, any government has a right to apply it to create stability.

Never in the history of this country has security votes been probed.

Why are we probing the security votes?

You see, to my understanding, it can be used for native doctors, it can be used for Muslim clerics, churches to pray for the country, they can be used for even sponsoring candidates for Nigerian Labour Congress, (NLC) elections! If NLC, is doing elections today, in the past as it sued to be the government can have interest and say, this is where we are going and there is no receipt, no accountability.

It isn’t an open and transparent thing. I am shocked that a man, who was a former president and operated security votes could now be throwing up this. But corruption is still corrup­tion; wherever we establish it, the po­sition of most of us is, yes naturally a government that has been in power for 16 years naturally some of us, mind you, there are no angels anywhere.

Some of us might have put our hands in one or two untidy deals, but some of the people close to Buhari needs to be asked questions, how did you get the money which you used to fund his presidential election? A state governor, what business were you do­ing before then? We know they have humongous money . There are allega­tions even in their states about diver­sion of money and we cannot ignore all of that, we cannot sweep it under the carpet and then come and be chas­ing perceived enemies. The president is a president of Nigeria, not a presi­dent of APC, not a president of PDP, witch-hunting will not help us, it will destroy the integrity and credibility of the anti-corruption crusade.

Another issue is the respect for rule of law and fundamental rights of citizens . We now say nobody should stay in detention for more than 48 hours, then you go and bring a hold­en charge, which the Supreme Court had declared, null and void.

So, if you are coming to equity, you mustn’t fight corruption with corrup­tion. You mustn’t fight corruption by corrupting the system, you must obey the rule of the land. So, we are totally for it and since we were in govern­ment for 16 years, it is natural that the pendulum will swing more on our side. Itshould be holistic. There are also people very close to his (Bu­hari’s) bedroom and we want to hear what the government is doing about it.

But your submission might be misconstrued, as trying to legiti­mize corruption. Government is saying money meant appropriated for arms purchase to contain insur­gency in North-east were diverted into PDP presidential campaign…

Point of order! Security vote isn’t anti-insurgency. It has been existing before insurgency. Insurgency isn’t the only problem with insecurity in the country. What is happening in Kogi state is it insurgency? The shoot­ing in Bayelsa, is it insurgency? Isn’t it electoral matters? If we perceive a situation that is a danger to the coun­try, government has any right to do whatever it can do to ensure that there is no breakdown of law and order. That’s the security of governance; it is totally different, not for anti-corrup­tion agencies.

Look, I have been in PDP for 16 years, no contract, no appointment and God has kept me afloat. Let us not give impression that everybody in PDP is a thief and that everybody in APC is a saint. Wherever we find peo­ple who have genuinely stolen public fund, whether in PDP or APC, they should be dealt with in accordance with due process of the law and their fundamental rights must be at all stag­es upheld, because they aren’t guilt until they are pronounced guilty.

Prosecuting people on the pages of newspapers is wrong. What Bu­hari is doing is catch them name them, shame them! That isn’t all: we want to see people return money, we want to see people jailed in the law court, then that’s when they become thieves. But what you are seeing now is, they just sensationalize it, they just politicized it.

That will destroy the integrity of the entire process.

What is your appraisal of the war on terror?


Well, some people said they were going to make Jonathan government ungovernable. Was there no threat like that, clearly stated? In my place, they say, the tortoise said, if there is a stam­pede, he would push down a pregnant woman, if there is stampede and a pregnant woman is pushed down by anybody, wouldn’t you refer to what the tortoise said? So, that’s the situ­ation we find ourselves. Somebody, somewhere threatened to make Nige­ria ungovernable and Nigeria has been ungovernable under the last adminis­tration. So, the person is the suspect, not the PDP. What will PDP gain by making its own government ungov­ernable?

Your insinuation is that the oppo­sition was instigating insurgency. But not that they are in the driver’s seat, the insurgency persists…

Well, I can tell you now that never in any place in the world has a gov­ernment given insurgency ultimatum. They say it must end by December. America has never done it in Iraq, Pakistan, anywhere. So, it passeth all understanding for me that as soon as this government came they gave in­surgency a terminal date. The impres­sion we give is that somebody knows something that we don’t know.

What I have seen in the last few months is magic, military magic. All along we see convoy of cars of the militants with their tanks and flags that when they went to Chibok they had vehicles to carry 290 girls— those girls were taken with not less than 50 vehicles. Now you say you are routing them, we didn’t recover any vehicle, I haven’t seen any of those Hilux vehi­cles. You declared 100 people wanted but none of its leaders has been cap­tured and you are telling me that the thing has ended. So, who is suspect­ing who? I rather want to see it as an international phenomenon, but trying to politicize insurgency which is what the APC did in the first place. I had warned that insecurity in any part of the country should be seen as a col­lective responsibility and opposition mustn’t use it to play politics. APC was responsible for that and now that it is PDP turn in opposition. I also warn PDP, don’t play politics with lives and wellbeing of Nigerians.

We must do mature, responsible opposition by partnering with govern­ment on this issue of insurgency as well as corruption and that’s a digni­fied, patriotic position that we are tak­ing.

What do you think PDP needs to do to turn the table against APC?

Those of you who know me, you must have been aware that I contested the party chairmanship in 2008 and I contested publicity secretary in 2012. My agenda was paradigm shift. PDP at a time was taking the goodwill of Nigerians for granted. They became complacent; it was as if once you get PDP ticket you have won election and everybody went to sleep and then de­livery of dividend of democracy and good government was taken for grant­ed and I warned that we were sliding.

One major thing that happened was when we tried to subvert the zoning system which was a cardinal policy on which the party was founded, so that everybody has hope that one day, it will be our turn. They scuttled it. Some of us spoke out. So, what we should do now is to completely dismantle the party leadership, at all levels because they have failed. It is a part of honour and dignity for them to quit. I have nothing personal against anybody but if you go to a battle and you lose, you quit and you give oth­ers opportunity to serve. It means there was something you didn’t do right. You go, as a mark of honour and integrity. The party has failed, we need a complete clean. A change of the leadership at all levels and reconnec­tion back to the vision of the founding fathers of the party; zoning, transpar­ency, competitiveness, not imposition and impunity. Jonathan was imposed, they even said they printed one form and no other person would run for the election. Even if they were in support of Jonathan they should have given other people a chance.

So, we ended up excluding a huge chunk of Nigerians, because that situ­ation was antithetical to democracy. So, PDP should change its leadership and go back to the founding vision. I think PDP is still the strongest and largest in Nigeria. In fact, APC isn’t a party but so many parties fused into one and that’s why they are having so many internal crises. We need a united party to have a united Nigeria and APC isn’t a united party. If the PDP can put its acts together, using the next convention and primaries and evolve a leadership that is chosen by the people, I can tell you that we would bounce back as quickly as pos­sible. God is using the present situa­tion to teach all of us a lesson, includ­ing the APC itself.

Lastly, the party recently had a post election conference. Were there lesson learnt?

Yes, lessons were learnt. It was the first intellectual exercise after the election. Papers were presented, peo­ple who were schemed out came to the centre to now say what they want. So, the brainstorming was very nec­essary.

It was a very successful outing and the document that came out of it is what is now being used for the engi­neering of the party. For instance, we have gone back to zoning. Secondly, no more impunity and imposition— on paper! We have said all these things, it is now for the people, the owners of the party to take advantage of the result of that conference to take back the party and let power belongs to the people, let them choose their leaders and choose their candidates. If the people are allowed to choose their leaders and candidates, PDP will come back in 2019.

But there is this sense of aloofness towards the PDP from the North, arising from its denial of the 2011 and 2015 presidential tickets.

What do you think the party can do to lobby the zone back into its fold?

We don’t lobby the North, we only need to correct what is wrong! Why did they leave? There was a deliber­ate policy of exclusion and imposition and they have shown their anger. PDP made APC to win the election, with­out the angry members of PDP, the New PDP that went into that place, APC wouldn’t have won the election. So, if we are able to correct our mis­takes, I am sure we will get some of them back, if we don’t get all. And if we get some of them back and zone the presidency to where it should have been since 2011, am telling you, and get a right candidate, it is possible.

Aristocratic class, they are scared about the despotism that is going on now, but they just wanted power to come to the north. Power has come to the North but this isn’t the power they are looking for!’’

Politics › S’south Not Part Of Biafra, Kokori Tells MASSOB by simpleseyi(op): 9:47am On Dec 28, 2015
Human rights activist and former labour union leader, Chief Frank Kokori, has berated the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra for saying that the South-South is part of the struggle for the creation of a Biafra Republic.

MASSOB had said in a statement on Sunday that “anybody who says that Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Bayelsa and Cross River states are not part of Biafra is deceiving himself.”

It said the listed states were Biafran territories and that Biafra comprises all the states of the former eastern region, including the Anioma community in Delta State.

“It has been part of the Federal Government’s policy of divide and rule to tell the world that only the Ndigbo want Biafra; but this is false,” MASSOB said in the statement.

However, Kokori, a former Secretary-General of the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers, told our correspondent during an interview that MASSOB and other pro-Biafran agitators were jokers trying to exploit the oil-rich Niger Delta.

Kokori, who is from Delta State, said MASSOB and other pro-Biafran groups like the Indigenous People of Biafra, were only trying to deceive Nigerians.

The activist wondered how the South-South could be part of their struggle when most of the Igbo living outside the South-East had refused to abandon their businesses in Lagos to join the Biafran agitation at home.

He said the creation of a Biafra Republic could spell doom for the South-East as the geopolitical zone is landlocked and thus not strategic for international commerce.

He said, “During the civil war, there was no South-South. There were the Eastern Region, Midwest Region and Western Region. The Midwest Region comprised Bendel people. The Eastern Region extended to Cross River, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom of today but that was a long time ago.

“So, we in Delta State have never been part of Biafra. Anything that is Biafran today is purely in the South-East which does not include Rivers, Bayelsa , Cross River and Akwa Ibom.

“These states are not part of this new Biafran joke. To me, it is a joke. The Biafra of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu was a serious issue. What people like Ralph Uwazuruike of MASSOB and Nnamdi Kanu of IPOB are doing is trivialising the serious struggle of Ojukwu.

“They are not even serious; they don’t know what they want. What they want is not viable and so they are just trivialising. Is Biafra today possible with five landlocked South-East states?”

Kokori urged Igbo leaders to caution the pro-Biafran youths who did not understand the implication of their demand.

He, however, urged the Federal Government to release Kanu, who is currently in the custody of the Department of State Services, for the sake of peace.

He added, “With Igbo people prospering all over Nigeria in places like Lagos, Abuja and even in the North, will they abandon their business and return home? Even if there is a referendum, the pro-Biafrans will not get up to 10 per cent of the votes.

“Most of the Igbo leaders are just keeping quiet. This struggle is a childish and selfish cause being sponsored by opportunists.

“However, the Federal Government should give Kanu a serious warning not to toy with treason again and then release him for the sake of peace.”

Is that why you fools are sponsoring miscreants that you call IPOB? You want to use the street urchins to wrestle power from the North. My brethren from another mother, you will need more than wrestling to take power back from the North, you will need boxing, judo, karate and bottle breaking. For your information, when power leaves the North in 2023, power will be coming to the South West. When South West uses 8 years, power will go back to the North in 2031, after the North spends 8 years, then power will come back to the South in 2039. But, who will get power between South West, South South and South East in 2039 is in the hands of political strategy and accepting that no region can do it alone.

[quote author=Buharidick post=41357854]I v said it before that our judiciary is becoming the worst in the entire universe. I am a legal practitioner but with the way they do away with Judicial Precedent, I am afraid there is going to be the highest form of dictatorial happenings in Nigeria.[/quote]You are a legal practitioner and your id is Buharidick , I don't think someone that has spent about 5 years in the university and a year or more at the Law school will create an id like a secondary school dropout. Just my thoughts though, if Mama Piss Patience Jonathan can claim to be a graduate and a former teacher while constructing sentences like Nursery One pupil, then anything is possible in Nigeria. Your id and thought are the result of the country's failed educational system.

TruthHurts1:
These are exceptional muslims. They chose decency over their own religion which tells them to despise and hate Christians. The koran even says that Christians are unbelievers:

koran 5:72 - "Unbelievers are those that say:'God is the Messiah, the son of Mary." and

koran 5:73 - "Unbelievers are those that say: 'God is one of three.'"
Deuteronomy 20:16–17
16 But uin the cities of these peoples that the Lord your God is giving you for an inheritance, you shall save alive nothing that breathes, 17 but vyou shall devote them to complete destruction,1 the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites, as the Lord your God has commanded.

Leviticus 24
24:10 And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp;
24:11 And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name of the Lord, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: (and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dansmiley
24:12 And they put him in ward, that the mind of the LORD might be shewed them.
24:13 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
24:14 Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
24:15 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
24:16 And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the Lord, shall be put to death.
24:17 And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.
24:18 And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.
24:19 And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him;
24:20 Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.
24:21 And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death.
24:22 Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the LORD your God.
24:23 And Moses spake to the children of Israel, that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones. And the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.

Orjioorji:
except they accept Jesus Christ as their lord and saviour, if not they are still potential terrorist and will still come back to burn the same church you think they were protecting .
I am a Muslim, I will never accept Jesus as lord, him no know me, me too no wan know am. But, God knows that I care about every human on earth. I have never ever killed a chicken, nor a goat, not even Ileya ram not to talk of fellow human.

No fewer than 150 Muslim youths and Imams worshipped together with Christians during Christmas service in Kaduna to strengthen peace, unity and religious tolerance in the state, the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported. Pastor Yohanna Buru, the General Overseer of Christ Evangelical Intercessary Fellowship Ministry, led the service in Kaduna. He said that the prayer was to promote peaceful co-existence among different faith organisations "and to shun ethno-religious and political differences affecting the state for decades." Buru said "more than 150 Muslims youths and Imams, traditional title holders and various groups attended Christmas service with their brother Christians in order to promote peace and harmony and religious tolerance across the state.

"Prayers were offered by both Muslim and Christian scholars and we also pray for the unity and development of the country." The general overseer expressed satisfaction over the large number of Muslims who attended the service, as some Muslim youths protected the church by providing security service. He said "I am very happy with what I witnessed today. Today is a very special day to all Christians all over the world, it is surprising to see that not only Christians came to worship with us today. "We have large numbers of Muslim youths and traditional title holders who joined us in prayer; this is a clear fact that Nigerians can really be their brothers’ keepers; it is amazing.

"We all must remember that we are from same parents (Adam and Eve) and we all worship one God." Among the traditional title holders at the prayer was Alhaji Ahmed idris, the Chika Soran Zazzau and Hakimin Unguwar Ma'a'zu, who led a team of some Muslims to the pastor’s house to congratulate him and wish Christians a Merry Christmas. Idris told Pastor Buru that "we are here to join our Christian brothers in prayers and to let you know that Muslims also love Jesus Christ. "We want to enlighten you and to let you know that in Islam, whoever does not believe in Jesus Christ is not a true believer. "We all must realise that we are from same parents and we all worship one God and we must know that there is no need for misunderstanding because we are one."
