I don't understand why the federal govt. allows sharia states ban the sale and production of alcohol but still give us that money as part of monthly allocation. Personaly i am feel that money is haram since if alcohol is not allowed then why state governors from sharia state will stil be accepting this money. Nigerian Breweries which is one of the biggest companies in Africa, Guiness, International Beverages and Brewery etc pay millions to FG in taxes. Why FG not seperate it before sharing it ?

Kx:
Since every home grown problem must be solved with foreign solutions,
and the Fbi is coming because NPF has failed.

When will American democrats come since nigerian politicians too have failed woefully??

Eziachi:

United Kingdom,
Germany,
Russia,
Australia,
Canada,
Italy
Just to name a few has NO presidential Jets, let alone fleets as obtain with Nigeria today even under humble and the guy without any shoes Jonathan, whose first achievement in power was to increase the fleet size from 4 to 5. Then who is Liberia?
Until Babangida, Nigeria doesn't have a presidential jet either, as they travel with one of Nigerian Airways aircrafts when they needed to travel only.

But opposition parties have rejected the result, calling for the declaration of a state of emergency in the state. In a combined press briefing, the candidate of the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), Balarabe Musa; Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Sani Sha’aban; Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Haruna Sae’ed, and Muktar Aruwa of the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP), alleged massive irregularities by the PDP. According to them, the party acted in collaboration with INEC and security agencies to rig the election.

“In line with the character of the PDP which is willing to perpetuate themselves in power by all means and at all costs, they found it very convenient to carry out their rigging. Reports from southern Kaduna indicate more than 90 percent voter turnout in the area, with the dead and displaced victims of the recent violence all voting, and they voted PDP,” the statement read

Odunnu:
From 22 to 34 states.
This man is so not serious

efisher:
@Superboi, ^ Is that u in d pic?

GP15:
Buhari pls come on air, cry for your supporters to stop this violence

reindeer:
To those blaming Buhari, you should ask yourself why people are rioting this time, the last 2 losses, he went to court didn't he?

Bawss1:
Ask him again. I also saw a fire truck leave the fire station and head to a northern direction. Heck any unit that wears a uniform and heads north now is definitely going to quell the crisis there.

yomijnr:
Those who voted GEJ whether in the North or South did it because they think he's the right man for the job. It's got nothing to do with his state of origin or religion. You people need to stop with your ethnic politics.

Gen. Abdul Hafiz to Choi: "We Are Not Here to Kill Ivorians! "

Mar 19, 2011 - 9:44:01 AM


"We're not in Cote d'Ivoire to kill Ivorians and I, I stop because I do not want to remain in the wrong," said Major General Abdul Hafiz, outgoing commander of the troops of the United Nations Operation in Cote d'Ivoire (UNOCI). According to our sources close to UNOCI, he made that statement a few hours after the presentation of his resignation. Hafiz, whose country is one of the poorest in the world knows that by doing such an act, he loses a lot of money, but he did it, for his dignity and respect for human life.
But officially, UN authorities accuse him of having provided ''top secret'' information to the author of the documentary film entitled ''Laurent Gbagbo in the the Gulf of Guinea whirlwind.'' This documentary film highlights the neo-colonialist appetite of France facing its African ''territory'' and the huge interests for which France is engaged in a war for the control of the Ivorian State. General Abdul Hafiz, whose functions come to an end, next Tuesday, March 22nd, was replaced by Maj. Gen. Gnakoudè Berens, a citizen from Togo. In reality, the senior officer of the Bangladeshi army, making his resignation, refused to endorse and participate in the genocide that France, the United States of America and the United Nations are scheming.

MyJoe:
when civilians are being slaughtered on the streets?[/quote]
This was the same reason Hitler gave for invading poland in 1939 saying the ethnic poles were killing Polish Germans.
My Question to Sagamite earlier way this, at what point do you intervene? and who verifies that the reason given for intervention is actually taking place?
If not tomorrow foreign powers can distort information and enter one country for bombing armed civilians(Libya), while if Isreal bombs Gaza they just cry out,

Sagamite:
you will be one of the first to scream why is UN, American and Britain not doing anything to save your life or stop the suffering. I would hear you say: "no external state/institution should intervene, it is an internal matter".

Sagamite:
Your point is what?

That justifies him not accepting he lost?

Sagamite:
Problems might be hard to solve but I don't see how you can solve such a problem in a short time and wait till it is resolved before you can have an election. You will probably have to wait 15 years or so discussing.

The rebels should disarm? Are you joking? So that Gbagbo would completely terrorise them? You did not see the way he was an openly, unashamed tyrant despite rebels with weapons, so what do you think he would do with a helpless opposition?

Sarahluv:
My Ivorian friend is so glad that Gbagbo is gone. Now how will Ouattara absolve his troops of the war crimes accusation?

Sagamite:
So what do you prefer if not elections?

A dictatorship or a tyrant?

Sagamite:
A country conducted elections finally in 2010, an election that was CRUCIAL to return stability and end a war.
