Homguy: I am from the south south, my name is olise, but for this bigoted, thoughtless and ethnically divisive post you posted here, PLEASE BUY YOURSELF A BRAIN! corruption is wrong regardless of ethnic origins. Our brother from the southsouth was there did he prosecute any of these northern thieves you mentioned? NO! now, a bigger , public shameless, squandering, conniving thief of a woman was arrested for questioning overseas and you are springing up the ethnicity card. Please just STOP!
What exactly does ministers do? GEJ had 42 wasteful Ministers and 26 extravagant SAs that were only making noises on TV and newspapers. The result being a wasted $480Bn revenue, $63Bn debt and a sordid tale of monumental corruption. Those who don't learn from mistakes are bound to repeat them.
adioolayi: This is Nigeria's most sensitive and corrupt institution... PMB carry go...This will even give NNPC MD Kachikwu more free hand to operate...he won't be ball boy to any corrupt minister thereby hampering his policies.
modath: Thot 1.You dont want to participate in this govt ,
2.Soludo according to NL keyboard biafra warriors is an incompetent economist
If not that i have very correct ibo friends & our next door neighbours are already in family friend status, would have gone all crazy on you but i know there are real cool ones who dont think like you guys......
4C2215131: Nice move, even though it could have been executed a little better. But then, come to think of it, a country as corrupt as this country needs such 'shock treatment' to bring it to its senses!
Appointing an overtly portly perhaps, 'pregnant', defence chief in dire times? Knowingly or unwittingly, Jonathan must have set out to stamp the entity Nigeria "Paid in Full" The country barely dodged a lead-capped bullet, Kevlar vests notwithstanding
Bevista: Same Employees, Different Leader, Different Results! Maybe 'body language' is not the right word, but there is definitely something that REAL LEADERS bring that inspires, motivates and drives.
A New Order is indeed upon us. With the right leaders, just maybe the Nigerian Dream might become a Reality afterall, who knows?!
You can hate the King, but don't let it affect your love for the Kingdom.
obailala: It's at times like this that you begin to miss Barcanista.
If Barcanista were still around, he would have come up with a very concise, well reseached and properly referenced but dubious analysis that would still have the effect of keeping apc on its toes.
But here we are, dealing with an okada man political analysis on the front page; obviously this is the best pdp has to offer.
iretiland: Semi-educated illiteracy is a serious problem in Nigeria and this Oche Joseph has reminded us again the danger that people with that background - with ability to write even if bad english but no capacity to understand and reason - can pose to Nigeria. People of his class who are mostly fans of a one time PhD holder president who lacked capacity to comprehend things a third grader will follow through with ease sees mothing good in what others not in their moronic class do or say.
iGeneral: Is this how to do an analysis? What I find deceptive here is your pretension to want to do an analysis. Poor grammar, shallow inferences, pedestrian analogies et al. OP, if you wanna be a wailer, be a good one. You are disgracing the comity of wailing Wailers with this haphazard attempt to analyse PMB's assets declaration.
The man has just said the absolute truth. Jonathan's approach of 'settling' the Niger-Deltans by giving billions to 'big men' and politicians while the poor kept getting poorer, that was a very wrong approach.
Only a person senselessly blinded by ethnicity/tribalism wouldn't see how Jonathan was a waste of 'presidential slot' for Niger-Deltans.
killjoy: I vividly Recall the story of a man who became popular for engaging in money rituals just to buy the 80's edition of the Honda Prelude. You wouldn't buy that car for 50k today. Some other guy brutally murdered his brother ( whom their father gave cash 2 travel 4 the purpose of re- stocking their warehouse), just cos he wanted to acquire the rave of the moment - Pathfinder Jeep. That same vehicle is now better described as a coffin. I Remember as a kid, my whole street gathered to watch a truck deliver a very large satellite dish to my neighbour's house. Today a dish one tenth that size delivers 5 times the value and is in almost every student's room. What about the Volkswagen Santana, Mercedes Benz V boot, 505Evolution, Toyota Crown, all overtaken by latest models of Camry, Honda, Bugatti, Bentley, X6, Acura and Infinity.... Vanity! Some ladies left their true loves cos some rich guy then persuaded them with a Benz 190, which turned out to be the only car they ever owned till date. They found out too late that true love is invaluable. A friend declared drinks because he launched the Nokia Communicator for over hundred grand in 2002. Today that phone would embarrass the owner and is a joke compared to the low cost and everyday phones. What about the MTN SIM card that many people went extra miles before they bought for over 30k, today you will not buy it at N100 because all networks are begging people to even take it for free. People are still making the most horrific sacrifices over 'vanity' and make enemies over worthless material things. What can I say? Look back at that one thing you want to kill or die for today and see what becomes of it tomorrow. There is absolutely nothing you can't achieve. All you need is a little time and PATIENCE and you would thank God without regrets. There is actually nothing in this world that is worth going to Hell for, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Meditate on this…
Another good news. Great that the story of chip fabrication process now begins to seem like a commodity's. 'Everybody' increasingly does it only, puzzlingly, without a loss in flavour but in fact, the opposite.
The 7nm node limit just got breached We should brace up for an interesting future As if the present isn't a mouthful already ;-)
Now Jonathan is, obviously, nowhere as vicious as the brute Fennel in Vulture Is A Patient Bird (James Hardley Chase) who got his comeuppance in the hyena's jaws after a drawn out chase.
Not screaming for GEJ's head Red-Queen-style but, i ask, was he hypnotized/spellbound while all that gore played out?
Why such curious passivity and prolonged 'meekness' from a C-in-C in the face of macabre and wanton spilling of his subjects' blood by BH as if they were gleefully taunting an outwitted leader Why the paralysis in his response till galvanized apparently by potential loss six weeks to elections?
Thanks to Providence the grotesque dream ended on 3/28. God bless the dead.
firstEVA: This is just the fact, Jonathan though from NIGER DELTA can not beat his chest to say he did well for his people, he left us worse than he met us, we the Niger deltans benefited nothing from our so called son. i have since learnt that my brother is someone who cares for me, not some one necessarily from my place. PMB is my brother and our son
As in all wars, the fighters had no excuse bungling the secession quest
Not being defeatist, but hope no one's is nursing a fantasy of some successful version of the US confederacy quest Of course, their end is widely known, more so the current fate of their 'heritage' flag
What still boggles the mind is why the hero of the struggle wouldn't be overwhelmingly supported when he threw his hat into the presidential ring Worse still, his endorsed APGA party is being easily obscured by a rogue PDP
Beyond the sound and the fury is just plain hollow frustration, i think Current wailing is sadly futile Apologies to the dead women and children.
