I only smiled when i read posts of people on the other thread hailing Buhari for going with d leanest entourage to the UN in d history of Nigeria at least sine 1999. That in itself is commendable considering d needs to conserve funds but I would have expected deeper thoughts n concerns to hold sway.

Beyond foaming at d mouth because of the number of people, what is the calibre of his entourage? What is their contribution to the issues that currently bedevil Nigeria? All he has were governors, former governors and hos personal staff. Where are the expected professionals and technocrats with d required training to formulate n drive policies?

I don't want to mention the long awaited ministers cos we have been put on notice as to the fullness of time and their status as political noisemakers. So where we're those steeped in tradition n continuity of civil service? Will Nigeria therefore run on his interpretation/understanding of burning issues which is expectedly limited to 'fighting kwarapshin'?

I rest my case at this point.

This is what a country witness when the president has no WAEC certificate. No secondary level certificate. When the blind leads another blind both go astray.

Babalegba:
This thread reeks of Nigerian ignorance and infantile mischief. Nigerians are not civilized enough to to be able to understand a dynamic world and are apish enough to allow their prejudices and hatred to destroy themselves and their children's future.What a pathetic thread

vani86:
Jesus christ, how naive are you guys, do you have any idea what is happening in the world market. What is nigerias largest export? Oil. How much was it back in January and now.

As much as i oppose buhari, i cant blame him for this. Fact is when the 1st projection was made, oil price was stable, right now it sells for abiut 50 dollars a barrell and when iran starts exporting oil, it will fall further to about 40 dollars, some analysy actually predict 20 dollars by 2017.

This will affect ALL oil producing countries.

Now how do you combat this to maintain a good GDP?

Radically pushing agricultural exports, reviving coal exploration and co.

So stop blaming d presidency, he is powerless instead blame OPEC

ziky2010:
Must we blame Buhari for everything!

Nnemuka:
Buhari's Body odour taking us to unimaginable places.......

(SK thanks for the post )

Nnemuka:
As at January 2015 Nigeria was 3rd on the list as the fastest growing economy of the world after China and Qatar, but as at September 2015 India, Qatar, China were placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd with Nigeria nowhere to be found anywhere just 8 months after.
Which way Nigeria?

If you can't do anything with 13%, you can't do anything with 100%.

Imagine how you ignorantly excuse those governors who steal what is meant for the development of your lands.

Ogonimilitant:
That's your own view and I don't have anything against your views but mind you respect my own views too bc it might differ from yours. I created this thread for us to know who we should trust amongst the three major tribes.

I am from Akwa Ibom state and I am going to be very long.


Our real enemies is nothing but that idiot in our heads tellung us that we have enemies..

yes, we have been marginalized, yes our lands have been polluted.

but what good does that bring to look and seek out enemies.

We have been blessed with 13% derivation from our OIL, we have the freewill to demand total federalism within our land..


seek no enemy, seek no revenge, look forward no matter what,

Ogonimilitant:
My people let's take this serious. Who are really our enemies in this country. Igbo, Hausa, or Yorubas. Please your candid opinion. Please tell us your state and your tribe. We have suffered enough from this 3 groups. I am from the Kingdom of Ogoni.

Respect to all.

BuddahMonk:

The time has come for me to bow out of active NL politics.

I want to thank everyone who has made my experience worthwhile.

Special thanks to the Nairaland admin Seun and moderator Lalasticlala.

While I look forward to greater interactions in the future, I wish you all Godspeed.


I leave you with the following quote from my book...Walking With SoE:

"In the end, there will be just two of us; those who made history and those who became history"

Benedict Oramah, the Nigerian banker who was in June named President of African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) by the shareholders of the continental financial institution will, on Monday, September 21, assume duties at its headquarters in Cairo, Egypt.

TonyeBarcanista:
This is supposed to be job of Education Ministry... The so-called Office of the First Lady is a conduit pipe to siphon monies belonging to Imo state. Only God knows how much was 'allocated' for this event.

Btw: Who's quarelling with rochas?
