Take time to read the report again and see the parameters used in sharing the money.

Again, we must re-orientate ourselves to the fact that there is much more to Nigeria than the oyel.

The importance of what the North contributes to our survival as a nation cannot be over-emphasized. Just by experiencing tomato ebola in the north in just one season, the whole of Nigeria has been suffering to get tomatoes at cheap/reasonable price. Can we imagine what will happen if all the farm produce that comes from there stop coming to the south? We will import? With which money and at what cost?

The earlier we realized that each region has its own relevance, the better for us as a nation to move forward.

Your argument is highly flawed. The northerm man sells his product by himself and keeps the proceed to himself without being taxed. If tomatoes ebola is ravaging the north then it affects the farmer just as it affects the buyers from south. If the northerm man pays tax, sets his price by himself then he should leave the oil money alone and allow the oil people pay tax to the FG and come to tomato market with their money. That way, the market forces dictates who is relevant to the 'other' and who isn't.

Wrong thing to say... so u mean all Nigerians destroy power infrastructure? Look 4 d culprits nau. Why are u d govt den. So us that don't destroy those things should go and look 4 dem? All these excuses and trying to play d innocent(like we shouldn't blame you wen there is darkness) so that we will sympathize wiv u. Is no longer working, u r in govt to give us light we paying for. That's all. That's how Femi Adesina said we should go and fish out does bombing pipes.
That's how lai mohammed told graduates to dress masquerades and take it as a job.
That's how Buhari callled us Criminals and thieves.
This govt is really taking its citizens 4 a joke. They say anything they like and expect us to absorb it.

Wat a country.

Our govt and complain. They complain more than the masses.

Foreign companies don't give in to blackmail easily. Most of their home countries have sound intelligence agencies that gives them correct info.

They know the current agitation by NDA is simply based on greed and not human right.

Anywhere-belle-face logic.

AnotherSeun:
very very stupeed report

How? If the study was done well then fine.

Black on black cruelty.
I suspect some law enforcing people go through some process(es) that pass(es) that spirit behind cruelty into them. How they adapt to killing without having kill during training might just explain their perspective and mindset.

Instead of lowering what the ND contributes, why not raise what others contribute?
Imagine Osun n Kaduna bring gold, Ondo and Lagos bringing bitumen and oil. And the northern states to bringing in lead, tin, iron ore and copper.

Fake threat.
Return what you stole, do about 24-30 months and go back to your wives and children.

Everybody wants bail out. I hope they don't give the banks bail out funds.
They 've been thriving based on easy oil money and a corrupt system for too long. Let them give reasonable loan to farmers, manufactures and artisans who are bedrock of productive economy and not 'general supplies' contractors who import things at exurbitant rate, thereby sending our capital to foreign land and shrinking the volume of money available to go round within. Some commercial banks may need to go the Microfinance way and grow into commercial bank again. The false prosperity inspired by easy oil money in a corrupt system isn't a sure bet for banks.

How trve is this news? I hope it is true n that Buhari govt goes after them fully.

OP please include the east. It will help your thread make much more sense.
Aregbe can confidently sit down and borrow so much because the people on whose behalf he is borrowing aren't paying with their sweat. They feel no sense of indebtedness and thus allow governors mismanage allocations.

The indebtedness level of Osun is partially reflective of mismanagement of school systems islamizatiom. Why run Christian sch when you can't pay workers of the remaining schools?

Politics and loyalty.

Wailer Nightmare is back.
The IB could have saved himself so much trouble by being less fixated on the 2015 election.

Dasuki's manhood lives on forever.

Did they also force you n your party to share the FG's allocation of the excess oil fund?
Scam man. I am sure he has hand in NDA and other groups.

The Jihadist turning against themselves? I hope so.

ISIS has killed 38 of its own members amid a hunt for spies in the group
The US-led coalition has had success with drone striking ISIS leadership
The US coalition has killed the ISIS 'minister for war' Omar al-Shishani


ISIS commanders are killing their fighters by dropping them in vats of acid as the terror group searches for spies who are passing information to the US military.
The terror group has lost several senior members to drone strikes in recent months prompting the major security review.
In March, a senior commander with ISIS was driving through northern Syria on orders to lead militants in the fighting there when a drone blasted his vehicle to oblivion.

The killing of Abu Hayjaa al-Tunsi, a Tunisian jihadi, sparked a panicked hunt within the group's ranks for spies who could have tipped off the U.S-led coalition about his closely guarded movements. By the time it was over, the group would kill 38 of its own members on suspicion of acting as informants.
They were among dozens of ISIS members killed by their own leadership in recent months in a vicious purge after a string of airstrikes killed prominent figures. Others have disappeared into prisons and still more have fled, fearing they could be next as the jihadi group turns on itself in the hunt for moles, according to Syrian opposition activists, Kurdish militia commanders, several Iraqi intelligence officials and an informant for the Iraqi government who worked within ISIS ranks.
The fear of informants has fueled paranoia among the militants' ranks. A mobile phone or internet connection can raise suspicions. As a warning to others, ISIS has displayed the bodies of some suspected spies in public — or used particularly gruesome methods, including reportedly dropping some into a vat of acid.

ISIS 'commanders don't dare come from Iraq to Syria because they are being liquidated' by airstrikes, said Bebars al-Talawy, an opposition activist in Syria who monitors the jihadi group.
Over the past months, American officials have said that the U.S. has killed a string of top commanders from the group, including its 'minister of war' Omar al-Shishani, feared Iraqi militant Shaker Wuhayeb, also known as Abu Wahib, as well as a top finance official known by several names, including Haji Iman, Abu Alaa al-Afari or Abu Ali Al-Anbari.
In the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, the biggest city held by ISIS across its 'caliphate' stretching across Syria and Iraq, a succession of militants who held the post of 'wali,' or governor, in the province have died in airstrikes.
As a result, those appointed to governor posts have asked not to be identified and they limit their movements, the Iraqi informant told The Associated Press. Iraqi intelligence officials allowed the AP to speak by phone with the informant, who spoke on condition of anonymity, fearing for his life.
The purge comes at a time when ISIS has lost ground in both Syria and Iraq. An Iraqi government offensive recaptured the western city of Ramadi from ISIS earlier this year, and another mission is underway to retake the nearby city of Fallujah.
Rami Abdurrahman, who heads the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said some IS fighters began feeding information to the coalition about targets and movements of the group's officials because they needed money after the extremist group sharply reduced salaries in the wake of coalition and Russian airstrikes on ISIS-held oil facilities earlier this year. The damage and the loss of important ISIS-held supply routes into Turkey have reportedly hurt the group's financing.
'They have executed dozens of fighters on charges of giving information to the coalition or putting (GPS) chips in order for the aircraft to strike at a specific area,' said Abdurrahman, referring to ISIS in Syria.
The militants have responded with methods of their own for rooting out spies, said the informant. For example, they have fed false information to a suspect member about the movements of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and if an airstrike follows on the alleged location, they know the suspect is a spy, he said. They stop fighters in the street and inspect their mobile phones, sometimes making the fighter call any unusual numbers in front of them to see who they are.

Dear poster/Buhari supporter,
First of all economy is about confidence in the system. Unfortunately, Buhari s body language and spoken words don't inspire confidence.
It took him 6 months to find excellent ministers? at the end all he found was Amaechi and Audu Ogbeh?
Every country is corrupt some more than others, but our president has made a habit of going overseas to tell them how bad Nigeria is and you people are surprised that foreign companies are leaving?
He has to stop arresting political opponents who hire lots of people and help make the economy stable if his vengeful Fulani spirit would allow him.

The discussion is about GEJ and not Buhari. How come a relatively healthy economy failed after injection fo record oil windfall coupled with good economic policies? I expect more from the proponents of GEJ being a hero.

Religion of peace that leaves men in pieces.

deji68:
Economy was not falling then...it fell after 7 month without ministers...no policy direction from this gov,..... point to any Capital project by this Gov... PMB is the president now the appraisal should be for him not GEJ...he left A YEAR AGO

It Fell? Please how?
My maiin point here is the economy even moving in the downward direction when there was Good policies n excess crude fund. Please let's try and focus on that and not on Buhari admin, I can do a whole thread for that.

deji68:
dont know how u interpret all the positive KPI i quoted as an indictment of GEJ tenure....isit the fact that u use a credit card? ,or that u used to buy rice or tomatoes at cheaper rate, or FOI? or TSA BVN? ....if come with a biased mind why ask questions?.... anyways enjoy ur Nirvana with is Government

You don't need to post n run away. If there r positives and the economy was failing then what does it say about GEJ govt as a whole? Say it the way it is brother.

deji68:
well let me help u..if u bought rice 7,5k/bag under GEJ and now 18k/bag..that is his agric policy (GES, e.t.c).... if u see trains running GEJ infrastructural renewal policy.... if are buying with ur credit card(GEJ cashless policy).....Naira was relatively stable GEJ sound economic policies...TSA BVN IPPIS to curb corruption..... if u are in doubt u can invoke FOI....a bill signed into law by GEJ..... the list is long

Given the fact that the economy nose-dived towards the end of his tenure, could these points of yours be valid as positives? It sounds like an indictment of GEJ admin.

@psucc, i am here to know where is good policies worked n not to just acknowledge them.

mikolo80:
for your mind you think you will elicit any meaningful discussion from pained trolls. Bros calm down. 2019 is coming. all doubts will be cleared then. whether Nigerians prefer ineffectual baboons or jagaban''s boys

I know for every cool headed Nairalander, there are 10 cyber touts so I am ready to wait till the 11 th reply to get the education I came here for.

Please, matured replies please no need for insults, just educate a brother.
