mrvitalis:
Negotiating with militans was Nigeria greater mistake
Buhari should not follow that part, level the community if need be just end this foolishness

Let amnesty international talk

Enough of this rubbish, the government should never bow to any group not at all

Na your mama toto dem go level. Idiot, you are calling for a whole community to be leveled because of a few disgruntled elements who nobody knows where they even come from.

DaBullIT:
He just gave it away ??




No gift is ever free, The $14m Mohammed Indimi International Business Center. Indimi has a long and rosy relationship with Lynn University, having sent 6 of his 8 children to the University.

As for Asari Dokubo, He'll rot in hell, He used several gullible youths to achieve his aim and the only favor he could have done for them he took to an entirely different country


If i were a drug lord, mafia , rebel or militant and have half of what Dokubo took from Mumu Jona , I swear to God , My city will be world's class , everything will be automated , Electricity , water , facilities, good roads, airports or landing strips , there won't be violence in that city and my headquarters would be well guarded so much that even if i had an issue with the FG, they'll have to beg literally to resolve , not that i'll run away from the mini country i would have built,


But as usual we can't be compared

Do you have any evidence of Dokubo taking anything from Jona or you are as usual just foaling from the mouth?

faaz24:
If my comment seems pointless to you what sense does it make asking if I was OK...

How can you trivialise an issue as important as this?

fulanmafia:
You don't know what you're saying mate. 1.1 Million candidates will not gain admission to Universities this year due to lack of spaces. Imagine the hundreds of Nigerian students stuck abroad because Bayelsa State cannot pay their allowances to this date (I have witnessed their agitation at the High commission in London), would it not have been better if they had been given spaces in the private university possibly for a cheaper or free scholarship if it was situated in the Delta?

Quit trying to defend the hypocrisy.

Hear from the horse's mouth himself.

Meanwhile, what has Indimi done for the people of the Niger Delta?

fulanmafia:
The purpose of the money in either case is completely inconsequential, immaterial and has absolutely no effect on the welfare and livelihood of the Niger Delta or its people, which is the core of the issue.

Asari Dokubo chose to invest in another country's educational sector while his people rot in need and neglect, you you have the nerve to put up this weak defence. As I said, the hypocrisy stinks.

Last time I checked, there are enough tertiary institutions in the Niger Delta and hundreds of Niger Deltans are studying in Asari's university on scholarship. How many tertiary institutions are there in Borno state and how many North Easterners are studying in the university where Indimi donated the money?

faaz24:
How many children were killed or maimed by the inhuman boko haram, where was amnesty int.

In as much as I condemn unlawful/unjustly killings in the guise of extracting information, I think amnesty can do better than this.

Are you OK at all? Amnesty international is not an anti terrorism organisation but a pro human rights organisation.

fulanmafia:
it was with amazement that I read the comments on the thread about Mohammed Indimi's donation to his daughter's University in the U.S.

https://www.nairaland.com/3118756/mohammed-indinmi-donates-n4.2billion-american

While I join reasonable voices to condemn the skewed prioritization, the stinking hypocrisy of those attacking him for investing his oil wealth abroad was beyond suffocating, and I have this question for them;

What did you all say about Asari Dokubo who built an ENTIRE UNIVERSITY in a foreign country when his people in the Delta were complaining of neglect and underdevelopment? You leave a so called 'freedom fighter' from the creeks that invested the ND peoples looted commonwealth in another country to attack a businessman doing business in the area who made a donation for a single building?

http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/146438-exclusive-asari-dokubo-establishes-university-names-king-amachree.html

The blatant hypocrisy stinks!

https://www.informationng.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/King-Amachree.jpg

@ fulanmafia, you are comparing apples to oranges. Asari opened the university as a business concern while Indimi just gave the money away as a gift.

investnow2013:
Awka!

Which part?

Ok, that's near Aroma, covering the teaching hospital and ABS.

luvinhubby:
How many of those countries is $50 per month ttheir minimum wage?

Zombie.

Leave the zombie op to continue foaming from the mouth.

Lalasticlala, Mynd44 make una come see sontin.

olatunjithomas:
I'm pretty sure the oldest of all the above commenter won't have gone beyond 30.but why are you people so daft?
first, no matter how angry a tribe is.should sabotage be the solution?
or do you it is in any way going to starve Buhari and his generations unborn?
haba. is it too bad if you people just apply a little sense to know this going to strongly affect the tomorrow of this country which is we the younger ones?
once again, I feel for your blindness.

. Channel your grievances to Buhari who caused all these.

joborskill:
Buhari must not negotiate with those rif rafs. Let them blow up their yeye oil. [b]thank God we have oil in lagos now [/b]

You means the 2 tea spoons of oil?

joseph1013:
[b]But according to the constitution, the Federal government owns all lands in the federation. So what lands are they talking about?

A friend from the Niger Delta was telling me that there is no road linking his community to land, his people must travel by speed boat to go home.

There was a time the government was almost ready and serious about connecting the village to land. That's a form of development and a welcomed idea right? Interestingly, his brothers in the community who took arms in the name of fighting for their development and against their marginalization demanded 50 million before the commencement of such project and that was a grand opening and grand closing of a project we longed for. It was dead on arrival

So whenever this guy reads people claiming that these people are fighting for his community's development, his kind wish is that they choke on their imagination and also wish the terror these individuals bring to his communities in the name of development extends to their communities too.[/b]

And you think it's peculiar to the ND?

How is that different from the omo oniles who barricaded our site until we settled them heavily before letting us continue with the construction of a factory that would eventually provide jobs for the locals?

Tonnierichy:
The Nigerian army needs to desist from harassing the citizens of this country.
Their job is to protect them not cause them pain.

However, Ijaw people should also talk to their children to be responsible.
They are not the only tribe in Nigeria
Why must they always be involved in ugly things to warrant the Nigerian army being sent to monitor them.
They must learn to behave like civilized people.

The army needs to patrol more in Agatu and Omenka's home town than they are needed in the ND unless your govt values pipelines security more than human lives.

don87:
Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari, when
addressing the national caucus of his party, the
APC, stated that Niger Delta militants are confused
and are confusing in their strategies.
“For Niger Delta, the militants are sending some
conflicting messages. Some have said they are
ready to drop their arms and join the rest of the
nation to build it. But part of them are still
sabotaging installations which is making
investments in that lucrative area of Nigeria difficult because nobody will submit his riches to financial institutions, get money only to suffer huge loss.”
“So, the environment for investment is being
sabotaged by our own selves, Nigerians,” he said.

Oh at least he's now coming to terms with reality. No more talking tough like threatening on ho to crush them......reality has dawned on him.

Lalasticlala, Mynd44, they've been released o.

Wadeoye:
Lets wait and see whose father's house will be leveled - peace loving kids or that of saboteurs.

Already, I can see the consequence of these criminal activities - i really pity you for the hell they may soon come on you guys.

I say na your papa dem go level. Oloribruku.

Wadeoye:
GEJ was in government for 6 years, which one did he attend to?

He was busy stealing money and empowering militants - and all of you were happy then. Now, you suddenly realized your primary demands have not been attended to by Fed government.

I pity you and those living in the creeks - the day government decides to use its power to protect the country economy and property, "Odi" will be a child play.

Just like they levelled Maiduguri? Na ur papa house dem go level.

mukhcech:
Now fear don dey catch you. Lol

I o ly asked a question.

adeniyibolanle:
Yes they have but they went underground first. If there is no evil agenda, and if their demands are truly for the common man in that region and not politically motivated, why can't they come out boldly in that way, all masses including the world will join efforts to make the FG see to their demands

They have asked for the implementation of the 2014 confab report, let govt start from there first.

maximilano:
They must be mad, let them go and fight their son who was president for six years and didn't bring any meaningful development to the place.

Why not go and join the Nigerian army so as to crush them. They are recruiting.

madridguy:
I am always ready to serve my fatherland in any form. If you think this guy's are doing well, wait till Niger Delta turn to North-East and you will realize this guy's are your enemy.

Why would ND turn to North East?

madridguy:
Which the Federal Government has been responsive so far to their demand. Let them bomb the whole Pipeline in their region, Nigeria Government cannot attend to all their demands in a year.

Bitter truth.

Which ones has the government attended to?

madridguy:
What is the course they're fighting for? So destroying government properties is the best solution? I only pity the innocent among them cos when the jungle is fully matured this boys will run into hiding and leave the innocent ones to suffer for their crime.

They have stated their demands, make Google your friend.

madridguy:
PMB: No terrorist group will ever hold Nigeria on ransom again. Dr. Chukwuemeka Ezeife, if you think Nigeria Government should dialogue with lazy guys who are just after their selfish interest then you don't want progress for this Nation.

If the NDA want anything from the government, let them come forward but thinking they can hold Nigeria Government on their kneels is No No No. Nigeria Army is up to the task, they are dealing with Boko Haram so NDA are just children looking for awoof money to flex their lives.

Note: Before you quotes me, don't tell me NDA are more sophisticated than Boko Haram, because they're nothing but bunch of coward, they attack oil installations and run into their hiding, let them wait for the Nigeria Army if they have the balls.

Bunch of lazy saboteurs.

I hope you have already filled a form to join the Nigerian army. They are recruiting.

My brother I wish I know who the odinkalu is and what he exactly said on national TV{channels I guess}. But one thing we are all sure of is; the president and his vice have declared their assets publicly

Do you even know what declaration of asset is?

Here is an example;

Vice President Jonathan Bows To Pressure, Declares N.2Billion In Assets



VP Goodluck Jonathan 
The Vice president Goodluck Jonathan yesterday capitulated to public pressure over the public declaration of his assets as done by his boss, President Umaru Yaradua as he made public his assets declaration to the Code of Conduct Bureau.

The assets which were made public by the senior Special Assistant to the Vice president on Media and Public Affairs, Ima Niboro indicates that the value of the Vice president total assets and cash in banks stands at N295,304,420.

This is about N561, 148,472 less than the assets declare by President Umaru Yar’Adua who declared his total assets to be at the value of N856,452,892.

Mr. Iniboro said the vice president’s decision to make public his assets declaration was to show that ‘there is nothing to hide’.

He added that the vice president is ‘a firm believer in the rule of law and this has guided his conduct in office through the years.

“It is this belief that also guided his position that having declared his assets for a total of seven times, there was no point in going further to publish the declaration” he noted

The vice president’s aide regretted that the position of the vice president not to make public his assets declaration had ‘generated an unfortunate storm, which is not only distractive but also quite unnecessary. We are worried that some newspapers and citizens we hold in high esteem have joined the fray.

“This merely shows that in the affairs of man, there comes a time when even the law must take a second place and the public mood must define our actions. To The Vice president, this is such a time, hence the choice to send you a copy of his declaration for publication” he said.

And how many times are they going to do that? When they first came into power, people were screaming that they should declare their assets, they did that. And now you people are saying they should declare it "publicly". So what's then the essence of declaring their assets in the first place? Is not like they don't have any work to do in asorock aside from declaring their assets.

Please when did they declare their assets publicly?

anitank:
good! atleast this would teach interviewers to compose relevant questions they want to ask before inviting someone for an interview. If you haven't seen her do it before why ask such a silly question?

Are you for real? Have you watched journalists from foreign media organisations interview celebrities?

Omawumi just dented her image and possibly career.
