The Minister of Power, Mr Sale Mammam is completely useless. He completely messed up the Mambila power project to the point that Nigeria will potentially owe $500 million to the contractors.

Abba Kyari the Former Chief of Staff caught Covid travelling to Germany to assist the useless Mammam in negotiating a power contract with Siemen

Nigeria Defaults On Mambilla’s $200m Settlement Agreement, Incurs Heavy Penalty

he suing firm asked for $960 million in damages for breach of contract.

In a series of documents sighted by Tribune Online, the Buhari administration which showed initial resolve to follow through with the amicable settlement initiated by its predecessors-in-office has now spurned the out-of-court settlement in multiple times, with Sunrise agreeing to let go of the penalty for earlier defaults.

The government even committed itself to $200 million penalty in an addendum to the original Terms of Settlement to assure of prompt payment of the $200 million compensation.

The addendum, which is the subsisting Terms of Agreement, is dated March 25, 2020, with the Minister of Power, Mr Sale Mamman and the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr, Abubakar Malami, witnessing for the Federal Government.

GOTVee:
Even though I'm a born again Christian, I think its time for the federal government to swoop in on this man before his actions and utterances undermine national security. Move him to DSS head quaters in Abuja and put him in an under ground cell. The Bible admonished we Christians to give what is due to Cesar to Cesar and also respect constituted authority. Calling our government blood thirsty is highly inciting and insensitive. Despite our attempts to demonize Muslims you will never find any northerner especially speaking ill of the government with divisive statements as this. Oyedepo is very arrogant and too aggressive to be a true Christian. There is nothing Christ like in the man and I wonder how he managed such follower-ship with his Talibanistic Christianity

Over 3 million Nigerians in North Central Nigeria are living in IDP camps, due to violence and insurgency by Fulani's herdsmen. Who will speak up for these innocent victims....You.

Jostoman:
Can you imagine, $500m for a tucano to fight the monster they created why some people don't even know what they are going to eat today. Nawao.

To make matter worse the US gave the Taliban 23 Tucano jet for free

Safyqueen:
Which war were they virtually at? Please stay where you are. That's why prompt payment of salaries is abomination in Benue state? Communal crises, herdsmen menace predates this Buhari regime, I agree on the influx of bororos from Mali, Chad, Niger republic that has actually endangered our farmers, that's not Buhari's doing but time, nature and environment.
Is Benue the only state in the north central where Fulanis constitute serious threat? Obviously no. Can't he borrow a leaf from Yahaya Bello of Kogi State, though another failure but at least on security?

A state that is virtually at war means that there is violence and insecurity across the state, I was shocked to watch millions of Benue indigenes living in IDP camps reminiscence of the last Nigeria civil wars and famines in DR Congo, Ethiopia and Somalia.

Why are the Fulani's Bororo in Nigeria?

How did they pass through the North onto the middle belt?

Usually, immigrants tend to settle among cultures that are similar to their cultures, hence the expectation was that the Fulani's Bororo refugees should have settled among other Fulani's in the Northern part of the country unless the Fulani's in the North are using the Bororo to grab more lands to increase their political and economic reach in Nigeria.

Safyqueen:
How does the open grazing law save the Benue people from the killings since enacted?

Ortom is a failure, ten times Buhari and Fulani race he insults every time it is due to pay salaries.

We never heard Fulani herdsmen scraping newly constructed roads nor demolishing/destroying social amenities in Benue state, what is he doing?

He missed the logic. Attack the government or maybe sometimes presidency not Buhari in person. He has forgotten he is part of the government. Olodo.

The truth is that as Fulanis cannot cleans any tribe from Nigeria, same way Ortom cannot cleans Fulanis from Nigeria.

Lastly, lets join hands to nip this killings in bud. Nigeria is bigger than Buhari and Fulanis.

Olodo, you want the governor to build roads in a state that is virtually at war?


The problem with the Northern-Central states is that they believe in the Northern Arewa hegemony that was perpetuated by the late Amaodu Bello in the 1950s.

I have no feeling toward the North Central states because the "chickens have come to roost", the consequence of their policies to back everything North, is now the carnage that is destroying them.

Sunnybay7:
People just come to a settlement and wipe out inhabitants of that settlement just because they are fulanis, they are automatically licenced to kill, burn and go free. No arrest, no names,no nothing and the carnage repeats itself over and over again and we say we have leaders in this country? It will never be well with Buhari. Nigeria has never been this bad.

How did the Fulani's settlement get that land. I bet they also wiped out the indigenous population.

How did Adamawa come into existent .....let me help you

The name "Adamawa" came from the founder of the kingdom, Modibo Adama, a regional leader of the Fulani Jihad organized by Usman dan Fodio of Sokoto in 1804. Modibo Adama came from the region of Gurin (now just a small village) and in 1806, received a green flag for leading the jihad in his native country. In the following years, Adama conquered many lands and tribes.

In Nigeria where we are constitutionally guaranteed the right of[b] movement and occupation[/b]

That says I all.

The Fulani's are fighting an ethnic war against indigenous Nigerians.

Now, this is what an airport looks like not the rubbish airports in Ekiti and Bayelsa states.

Awoleesu:
In 1999 when Sani Yerima wanted to impose his AL/OIC sponsored Shari'a legal system, one of the arguments put forward by the Shari'a apologists was that shari'a was a law of Allah that will abolish discrimination in the administration of justice (meaning everyone will be equal before the law)... We told them that time that it was a farce! Not any human society has ever had a legal system that is 100% fair! Not even the countries selling the Shari'a idea to yerima & co.

Now, this urchin called hisbah commander talks another farce of something being "unislamic" to criticize leaders in public! But the last time I checked, these bloody hypocrites did insult OBJ and GEJ like who cares! Oh! perhaps he forgot to clarify that only muslim leaders are forbidden to be criticized!

I keep telling the idiots ranting about islam being the 'perfect way' that although Christianity may not be a perfect religion, it far outclassed Islam! What muslims hate to take from non-muslims is the same they dish to the latter.


Now, these people are getting themselves messed up worldwide with their wild ways... Even one guy up here said he's "ashamed" to call himself a Muslim!

In not too distant a future, I see islam self-destruct and many muslims run to any available exit door like the Afghans hanging on taxying planes....

Marriage controversy
Senator Sani was accused of marrying a 13 year old child bride from Egypt and was investigated for having violated Nigeria's Child Rights Act of 2003.[7] However, [b]under Article 61 Second Schedule of the Nigerian Constitution,[8] the Nigerian Government has no power to legislate on “marriages under Islamic law and Customary law including matrimonial causes relating thereto”, meaning that Senator Yarima had no legal case to answer [/b]and the investigation was dropped. He maintained that he has not violated sharia: "History tells us that Prophet Muhammad did marry a young girl as well. Therefore I have not contravened any law."[9] According to Al Jazeera, he paid $ 100,000 as dowry for the 13-year-old Egyptian.[10]

greenguy:
How Sharia came to supersede the constitution in Nigeria still baffles me.

We read all these ridiculous things from Hisbah every time and no one can say anything, not even CAN. I pity those dreaming of a better one Nigeria.

ceejay10:
GEJ took much more and never went after those insulting him. He and his wife became objects of ridicule and butts of jokes.

They easily forget how they use all instruments to humiliate GEJ , support terrorist attacks across Nigeria to undermine his government, yet to GEJ credit he never banned Twitter or abused Nigerians freedom of expression.

Osinbajo is a disgrace, millions of indigenous Nigerians are living in IDP camps in Benue, Taraba, Kaduna and Jos, yet this stupid slave is more interested in the plight of his Fulani's master.

Cr7772:
My brother, our people say that half a loaf is better than none. Tell me:

How much was petrol under Jonathan? Do you realize that the price of an important commodity like petrol controls the prices of other commodities?

How much was a bag of rice under Jonathan?

How many farmers were slaughtered in their farms by fulani herdsmen under Jonathan?

What was dollar rate under Jonathan?

Did Jonathan Marginalize any region while he was in govt compared to what's happening now?

Was Kaduna and zamfara, the two Hotspot zones for kidnappers not peaceful under Jonathan?

Too many things to mention but I'm very busy right now. You would be lying to yourself if you claim life wasn't far better under Jonathan than it is now.

Do you think things would have improved under GEJ?

....by 2014 the economy was already in free fall insecurity was at its high point and corruption was shocking, Buhari incompetence and corruption is just an extension of GEJ corruption.

ENGINEERG:
At this time, they should go and do juju, and arm themselves too.
Forget about your foreign religion, just go traditional. Cos even if you are killed, heaven is not still sure.
Have you heard Fulani Terrorizing Nupe people before?
Nupe people are so powerful spiritually. And no Fulani can mess with them

Nupe have already been messed with, they have been conquered and humiliated in the 1800s and are now with the Hausa subservient to the Fulani's.

Ovo200:
After reading this post yesterday
https://www.nairaland.com/6716644/plight-hnd-holders-nigerian-labor

I'm an HND holder(animal production) and planning to dive into the IT world (cyber security) but after reading the article yesterday I'm beginning to have doubts about whether to go for cyber security or a top-up degree.

Pls all advise are welcome

Cybersecurity or Cloud computing is a no brainer. Every electronic gadget will need to be secured and only well-trained security experts will have the capability to deliver this service.

Cr7772:
Nigeria has never had it this bad. That vegetable in Aso rock doesn't give a damn, why would he? It doesn't concern him cos he jets off to London to see white doctors whenever his body system becomes weak.

Buhari is the greatest mistake to ever befall this our beautiful and naturally blessed country, his fulani emboldened terrorists aka Bandits are having a field day now and becoming bolder with each passing day , they even attacked a whole NDA yesterday but u won't see that idiot we call president condemning the act or threatening to deal with them in the language they understand, the senile and demented Daura villain is more interested in MNK and Igboho; the two strong men opposing the fulanization agenda.

Dear GEJ, biko we are sorry for 2015 nwanne, they used boko haram to set up your government, they sabotaged you with various bombings, they called u weak and clueless, we fell for the deceit but I guess everyone's eyes and brain has been resetted now except some selfish imbecilessss like the vulture seller ready to sell their mama for some cheap BMC salary, someone remind these clowns that while they are paid 30k to defend foolishness, Buhari's jobless son gifted his wedding guests the latest iPhone, customized one at that o. Let's help them think since they have refused to use their brain.

If you are a southern still defending this brainless, silly and idiotic government, then may God, Allah, amadioha or whatever you worship run your life the way Buhari is running Nigeria. Amen.

You are apologising to that coward and crook GEJ, the last time I heard GEJ was eating jollof rice at Buhari's son wedding or running errands for Buhari in Mali.

We have Buhari because of GEJ incompetence.

Maxymilliano:
This is the most ludicrous story i have read in recent times and if not insanity, why would anyone export a car from Nigeria to the US ?

You gifted a car to someone in the US and shipped it all the way when Jaguar is manufactured in the UK ?

Madness !

Danjikanbauchi:
do you believe a person like Oke chukwu will steal a car. Haba the guy is bigger than that na

Most Nigerians senior government officials are involved in shady business and I will never believe the cook and bull story that Oke Chukwu is now in the car export business.

Nigeria is already turning to Afghanistan pro max

Afghanistan is turning ing Nigerian, how many IDP camps are in Afghanistan

Charmingrascal:
That short sighted man who is also brief in height but ironically answering La"long" is a failure to the people of Plateau State.
He revers his position as the Northern Governors Forum Chairman than the people of Plateau.


He is a burukutu sipping failure who knows nothing about governance.


It is a pity that as beautiful as Plateau is they have an unfortunate Governor the same period when we have an unfortunate President in Nigeria.




This is Pantami's plan for Plateau turning to reality, this is the Jihad that Pantami and his fellow terrorists planned for Plateau.

It is unfortunate that it is happening when they have a Fulani slave Governor.

Tueee!!

They voted for him, so they should live with him. The middle belt people are the architect of their own downfall from Gowon to Dajuma they all played the Northerner card.

EVideos:
Concession remains the best option

Why not list it on the Nigeria stock exchange., public privatisation will mean transparency and accountability to their investors

blamingthedevil:
Yes, that is the politics people from South East should learn from.

They should learn to remove emotions , hatred and bitterness from their politics and life after all Jonathan, Atiku and other PDP members were there.

Being in different different political parties or orientation do not mean others are your enemies.

Stop inheriting the hatred of your forefathers.


If FFK starts abusing Buhari or Tinubu tommorow, you will see them switch sides.


Have emotional intelligence for once

What good has l Jonathan, Atiku and other PDP members done for their communities. Don't copy failures

Sniper4real:
Ok

Who can loan me 10k, will be paid back in the next 21 days

In 21 days you will not be picking up my calls

KingOfAmebo:
"Majority of the youths commenting on nairaland are the reason Nigeria is in this great mess, I have never seen a larger congregation of youthful fools in a single country as Nigeria (nairaland made me know this)...they are so dumb, daft and stupid"

"Furthermore, they go about displaying their stupidity in public with so much pride and without shame, to them its cool being a fool, some of them think insulting everything Nigeria will transform it to paradise while their life waste away" - Village People spokesperson.

You may not like what they are saying but they have a point.


The reason why Nigeria is still a backward nation is that we support hard manual labour instead of smart productive labour, a man with an HND and former banking experience can improve bread distribution by using his skills to raise funds and build a business that distributes bread from the bakery to multiple shops, business and homes.

He can do better if he puts his education to use.

Overage cheat, when it comes to the real thing (Olympics ) they are no where to be found

DankemzI:
Akwa Ibom to the world, they should start production of mini buses ASAP.
Akwa Ibom State Government should start to gradually phase out Keke napep.
Let mini buses take over from keke

Check out the greenery, what does this mean? Akwa Ibom State has thousands of arable virgin lands suitable for mechanized farming & ranching to feed her citizens and the southern Nigeria at large, we can even export agro products.
If northerners could do it in their desert how much more this virgin prosperous lands? No wonder fulanis herdsmen are hell-bent on occupying this blessed land

That's my former LGA of origin, if you need plots, hecters, acres of lands for any kind of business/purposes in this vicinity or Akwa Ibom State at large call us now contact in signature, a plot goes for #500,000k only hurry now before the place is built up

Bushman , the quote said to check out the greenery as an opportunity to produce agriculture products and preserve the rainforest.

Why are they all focusing on peter Obi?

Because he is the asslicker that is always saying that it is Igbo turn to run, now the world now understand that he means that it's Igbo turn to steal. I always knew that Peter Obi was full of hot air

How a man can force a woman to perform MouthAction and hold a knife and camera at the same time is beyond me.

His crime might be selling the video without paying the Kenyan woman.

Danjikanbauchi:
God protect us from Buhari and his Terrorist government.

Continue waiting for god and you will end up like those hapless Afghans that were hanging on those aircraft. Southern Nigerians must prepare for war because the Islamists and extreme are already ready for war.
