We are gradually getting out of insanity! It is good for our children because they will meet the right attitudes we didn't meet!
Good to see that both APC AND PDP are on the same page on this one, for every Fayose cutting meat, there is an Ameachi joining queue and Ben Bruce replying people on Twitter! Ultimately we all can keep faking 'humbility' for now, soonest we will key into real humility!

Everyday i get scared of Nigeria and doubt if Nigeria would ever be the Nigeria we dream of, not cos of our greedy politicians but cos the mind of Nigerians have gone soo low...Our politician deprived us good government, loot our funds and has finally succeeded in programming our people's to think through thier mouth, not with thier head anymore..you see them distributing rice and recharge card cos of election and my people are not even ashamed of how much we are ridiculed.

I am not into any party or something but truth be told PMB is really doing fine and i really believe in his cabinet and i believe those guys wont disappoint.

I still cant comprehend why some bast.ard nigerians criticize a few month old Govt. and cant stone a 16years Govt. that took us 50 years backwards. is that not hypocrisy?

GEJ used to be a man i love so much cos of his calm and gentle attitude till i knew he was a scam and used by some cabals to fool Nigerians. They are all a disgrace to the entire human race and to thier religion...they are the reason why some people hate religion. they go to Jerusalem, Mecca and come back and steal in the name of Jesus and Allah then donate tithe in millions to churches and mosque...They distract us with religion and sometimes i wonder why Nigeria is this bad cos we are the most religious and i later realized religion made us vulnerable.

Despite the obvious looting evidence against the past administration i am yet to believe there are still some set of Nigerians that still support them, sometimes i just think they are Robot and If they are not, their children and great grand children will suffer it and may the almighty God rule thier entire generation the way the last administration ruled us.

God really love Nigeria if not despite the money they spent on the last election, they would have won.

Please Nigerian lets come together and support the present administration and i am sure it wont let us down. let us not be divided by religious, political party, ethnicity or anything.

I believe anybody inculding any politicians that still support the last administration should be lynched until then they wont stop thinking we are all fools. They are nothing but the enemy of the masses.


Pardon my grammatical blunders as i am writting this with an heavy heart...

One love Nigeria but jail Dokpesi, Dasuki, Bafarawa and the likes.

The poster above me, u get brain die, i totally agree with you but others above, either u guys are paid spams, robots, or bots, with your sponsors thinking they can use you guys persistent abuse of a working president to bring the president down (which am sure won't work), or u yourself no get brains at all, just being stupid. During the raining days of oil windfall, the PDP govt did not plan and envisage this kind of glut, (which in turn affect the price of our major source of revenue) will come but rather busy stolen our commonwealth, now this new administration inherit a rot of decades and for you guys to be running online all the time demanding their heads to be cutted off is shameful, do you think everybody is stupid and gullible as u guys?? As for Oando, the company should pls do the needful, if sacking is the option they wanna explore, pls pay off the affected staffs adequately their entitlements, it is understood that the problem at hand is a world wide oil industry issue, and for the staffs - (no secure job anywhere o), except a job u created for yourself, am sure many of you haven't used the big fat salaries gotten while employed on frivolities alone.

realborn:
Just as I told my friend who was chanting marginalization, our leaders are the ones who have deprived us of our common national benefits.

Till this day, "Ohakim's formula" is very much in use. Nigerian politicians are very very irresponsible!

Saturn213:
You guys keep making a comparison to Scotland but what you fail to realize is that the Scottish Independence movement is made up of intellectuals, academics and politicians. They provided evidence of how their country will be constituted if they got independence, from oil treaties with Norway, decommissioning of nuclear facilities. They had several bases covered before asking for independence. The Scottish people saw evidence of how their country will function if they leave the union.

It is not like Ipod run by an illiterate that goes on radio calling for the massacre of Nigerians and calling Leaders names and asking for his supporters to murder a well know Nigerian Pastor. He was even caught on video asking for money to buy arms. This is an unprofessional illiterate with no common sense.

The Scottish spent years trying to convince their people, they then formed a party - the SNP. After decades of campaigning, they got majority of political seats in the Scottish Parliament. Even after that, it took them years to convince the UK government to agree to a referendum. The whole process took over 50 years. It is a separation and not a tea party.

When Igbos are serious, they will vote for a party that wants Biafra independence, they will make them senators, HORs and governors. After that they can negotiate with the Nigerian state for a referendum.

You just dont wake up one morning and start shouting Referendum. It will take decades of negotiations and talks.

Sir Born, base on little knowledge of the deal, it is an exchange of stocks from foreign investors to local institutional investors (Fund Manager) lol. Nothing much to worry about though

kolaaderin:
GEJ acclaimed fresh air is nothing but Nazi gas which almost sent Nigeria to the grave, the whole 6 years the termites were busy with the structural wooden frame of this country. I just hope we will survive this and I still wonder if we are still on the world map, no nation has ever experience such magnitude of looting.

feelamong:
I saw this coming!!

Since the Mutual funds are all invested in FGN Bonds and TBills; with the drop in the rates and Yields...it was only a matter of time!

Clearly the days of high yields in financial investments is over!

make everyone go invest their money for real business or farms! or be ready to receive only 3% returns p.a

gretblue:
If PDP could have looted their campaign funds to the extent of this public accusations.Only God knows the damages they have done to our national treasury.Glory be to God, that le shoesless da la clueless wasn't re elected.

ibisko04:
Good to know. Let us be patient for some time. Now that we have ministers, our nation will definitely make a big leap under the leadership of president Buhari.
We know that majority of our big business are rent collectors without much productive activities.
Like I said before, we are in corrections mode.
We will soon see the goodness of Nigeria.

eye4eye:
I believe you had Abia representatives in PDP government of Obasanjo, Yar'Adua and Jonathan that did nothing to help Iboland. They did nothing other than to enrich themselves massively. Jonathan did not build a single road in Iboland or reconstruct a single road in six years of his inglorious administration.

Why you didn't clamor for your so called Biafra during PDP miserable government is beyond me? It is now that Buhari came in you all realized Biafra is your solution.

You need to call your fellow Ibo politicians back from Abuja and start lynching them before your problems can be solved. Your leaders are your problems and not Nigeria. Your leaders are the richest former governors we have in Nigeria. For example, Orji Kalu is the richest former governor today.

Bunch of fools.

Save me d epistle...I am human like she is, i suffered because she stole, she didn't care, while I was trekking, she was ridding Private jet...The economy was crumbling, she's stealing in billion of dollars, she ate wat she want, i eat what i see...I have been sick b4, instead of going to the hospital, i do Baba Alagbo while she goes to London for ordinary check up... I don't wish her death, i hope, pray and wish for her safe recovery so she can come account for her steadwardship

TRUTHTOPOWER:
See how this GEJite exposed GEJ house of cards



How long does it take for a corrupt economy to collapse. According to the above GEJite, PDP and Jonathan six years were so good that within 30days of leaving office, the economy collapsed.

The question is: is there any economy in the world that literally collapsed within six months of Democratic transition?

How long does it take for a company to wind up in the face of austerity?

When you mould your house with spittle beware of morning dew! GEJ govt built everything on corruption and everything so built collapsed at the instance of accountability. what the heck!

economy was built on false presumption of perpetual sale of crude @ 100 dollar per barrel, 80% consumption of revenue and shady award of contracts to disburse the remaining 20%.

What do you expect if PMB rightly refuses to honour such anti-masses malappropriaton?

Now we know the trains are jokes, airports stink, workers unpaid, SURE-P a mirrage, etc. What is the single socioeconomic legacy of PDP 16 years in govt with direct impact on at least 20% of 34 million unemployed citizens (NBS figures) None!

Can anyone remind us why Ben Bruce wanted to make Common Sense again?! Calamities of the past he now salutes. psssh! master of contradiction!

omenka:
We know you guys are totally brainless, but sometimes, it helps to pretend you actually have brains.


This means they are being owed 15 months pay and out of those months, your useless party was in power for 10 of those months.

Such a pity one has to share the world with nonentities like you lot.

Aufbauh:
This is one of the reasons i have not taken the opposition party PDP seriously.
Most of the economic backslashes we are experiencing now was inherited. The opposition will be quick to point out how bad our economy has degenerated forgetting that some of us are more intelligent and reasonable to know that the economy of a nation does not start crashing in a matter of months. It is a build up of failed policies and programmes cluelessly initiated or poorly implemented.
They're always quick to point to the positives of this present administration as a programme conceived and initiated by the GEJ but will distance themselves from the mess they created. What a hypocrisy!
Nigerians have no option than to wait patiently for PMB led administration as he clean the aurgen table left behind by the crooked and perversed government of GEJ.
To set the record straight, more than 50%of this debt was carried over from the previous government making the present administration to start from an indebted position.

The "body odour" has reached far away America. They smell it and they like it!

The most useless party in Africa and indeed the world, says Baba's utterances and strategy is "demarketing" Nigeria, meanwhile those to whom he's trying to sell his ideas think otherwise.

Only those with irreparably abused minds and perpetually sore losers would NEVER see the good intentions and deeds of this gentleman for our common good.

My faith in this man remains unwavering as he methodically performs the much needed surgical procedure on this patient that was rushed into the ER on May 29th.

Now Goats would be forced to eat grass which was what God in his infinite wisdom designed they to eat from creation. But somewhere along the line, the natural course of event was altered, the door to the barn was left wide open, and our Goats all became Ajebo Goats that fed exclusively on Yams and lost the appetite for grass, they grew so fat we started mistaking them for Buffalo.

I expect some initial resistance as they are forced out of the Barns into the fields to feed on their natural staple, but of course we know it would all be in futility- they only run the risk of starvation should they insist on Yams.

I expect the cries of secession to increase three folds with the implementation of this cost cutting policy.

The Goats behind these deals are the people sponsoring all that Biafra nonsense in the hope of distracting the government and ultimately crystalising chaos which would ensure they keep making abominable profits at the expense of the common man.

They see Baba as a threat to their control of the levers of our polity/economy and would do anything, regardless of its propriety, to ensure they perpetually lord it over us.

Toss a few change here and there they would, and the same people we saw yelling GEJ till thy Kingdom come from every rooftop and treetop they could have a foothold would be the ones shouting "Biafra", "death to the zoo"!!


May God continue to direct your hands Mr President. Slowly but surely, we are on the path towards a full recovery.

God bless Nigeria.

anonimi:
That is what 16 plus years of progreTHIEF administration of the state by Tinubu/Fashola/Ambode has turned the state into.
Grinding POVERTY all over since all the money that should be used to:

- educate ALL our children
- provide tap water
- build, staff & equip health clinics and general hospitals
- build & maintain good roads
- etc

that will create EMPLOYMENT has been stolen by the CROOKS are very smart at PRETENDING to their gullible fellow residents of the state of excellence.

You are very dumb....very very! I mean telling people to pray for their oppressor? Thats a new low.

Adminisher:
OP, it is not easy to be a PDP supporter. The brains are usually not there when you are young supporters of PDP.
Let me explain things to you slowly. Jonathan was selling oil at $100 a barrel for six years. During this time corruption was very high and he never thought about the future. He never thought about the youths.
Nigeria did not build new refineries, new power plants, new petrochemicals, no steel plants.. nothing. Even the Brass LNG that he told Amechi was the reason for not doing another train of LNG was not done. Brass LNG would have boosted Bayelsa. Let us be honest , the man was "short one"
Now let us expand the context;
1. Saudi Arabia - serious cash flow problems because of low oil price which they caused to destroy Iran. Saudi Arabia is actually one of the cleverest OPEC members they and Dubai and Qatar have billions invested in refineries and Petrochemicals and power plants. Yet they are having serious cash crunch.
2. Venezuela: Things are so bad this country is already digging into gold reserves to finance it's imports. They have run out of foreign currency reserves they are now selling gold.
3. Iran: Iran is having serious problems in spite of their military mis adventures. To tell you how serious, young Iranians went into the streets dancing when the deal with US was signed. They have agreed to stop nuclear weapons for $100bn dollars US money to develop theiron damaged oil industry.
When we say Jonathan's government was very bad we have facts figures and even more information. It was a highly corrupt government led by a very weak man without string core values.
It will take at least two years to undo the damage of d8x years that PDP has done but the only way out is to go back to basics of no tolerance for corruption.

odeotito:
For me, the diverse shades of history disclosed by this thread is indicative of the need for the UN to clarify the status of the people groups in the region before throwing its weight behind the inalienable rights of the Igbo to self-determination.
I may sound unpopular but methinks the best option for the Igbo is not Biafra but reentrance. Reentrance into Nigeria by way of reorienting the next generation of Igbos. I say this for three reasons 1. Given the population of the Igbos and the land mass available to them it is inconceivable they will not need to exist in diaspora-and in large numbers too! 2. Chinua Achebe had this to say -"There is no doubt at all that there is a strand in contemporary Igbo behavior that can offend; by its noisy exhibitionism and disregard for humility and quietness." Correct this and the age long tendency to distrust The Igbos harbored by many will vanish into the resultant convivial amity. 3. I'll miss Igbo cuisine and my Igbo brethren whom I'll require a visa to access should they insist on leaving! So long

dekdek:
This is the best part of the OPs post. Sane men will only focus on this and split on the rest.

i think this govt is sending some serious message to us all...we all should go and do some real businesses and get productive. seems the days for easy easy money is gradually coming to an end (if its sustainable)

maybe na to go begin farm now

on a serious note, its time to start looking at taking some sort of risk in other investment vehicles
