PoliticsRe: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by sweet9ja: 2:12am On Jan 20, 2011
If Ciroma and co (I never believed they represented the entire north) were really serious about producing the Next president of Nigeria, I wonder why they zeroed in on Atiku? Why no go for an untaited person like Mallam Sanusi, our able Central Bank governor? A man who has proven his love for the country.
The whole thing, I believe is not about zoning as such, but it's really about retaining political power for themselves. They are afraid of generational shift.

For those who are hoping the north will vote masively for Ribadu or Burari, I say dream on. Compared to the PDP , ACN which is the main opposition party does not come in any sence close in terms of organisation and grassroot support.

PoliticsRe: Sanusi Presented With Central Bank Governor Of Year Award by sweet9ja: 12:52pm On Jan 06, 2011
Soludo did very well in his days at the CBN and now Sanusi is actually consolidating and making sure we don't go back to the pre-Soludo's era when banks mushroomed all over the place and where failing as fast as they sprang up. They are both men of vision and courage, so, they both deserve the recognitions they got. Theirs are the best appointments made by both OBJ and UMYA.
Congrats, Sanusi. Carry on with the good work.

Those blaming GEJ are thesame people who don't want him there in first place.
They are doing all they can to frustrate him out of Aso Rock.
However, GEJ will succeed and outlive all of you, idiots.
PoliticsRe: IBB Group Joins Jonathan Campaign Group by sweet9ja: 1:30am On Dec 20, 2010
Don't read too much meaning to this, it's just politics as usual. Are they not all members of PDP?
Remember the last Democratic presidential primaries in the US? Obama and Clinton fought to the bitter end. However, when she realised he has the numbers, she did not only join forces with him, she advised her supporters to swing behind Obama.
IBB and his supporters may have realised the Jonathan/Sambo ticket is more realistic hence the change of heart.
It only a fool who will want to team up with a loser.

PoliticsRe: Nigerians Among Highest Bribe Payers In The World by sweet9ja: 12:30am On Dec 13, 2010
I told a few friends some years ago that corruption must be defined as treasonable offence, because it the one thing that is capable of tearing Nigeria apart. Recent revelation by Wikileak that Shell have spies at the hearth of our government, who report every secret to tha company has proved that point write. I believe we should adopt the Chinese option whereby anyone found guilty of corruption gets the death penalty. If this is done you'll see how Nigeria overtake even the Nordic countries as a corruption-free country within a very short time.

Please, ignore that fake communist. FGN should without delay privatise all utility companies, introduce road tax for vehicle in the country and remove sudsidy from all petroleum products. Money acruing from this exercise should be directed toward improving healthcare delivery, education and building and maitening our road network.

PoliticsRe: Former Jonathan Group Defects To Atiku’s Camp by sweet9ja: 4:13pm On Nov 22, 2010
Ah! Let them go. They where in the first place not working for GEJ or naija, these people are for sale to the highest bidder. I won't be surprise if in a couple of weeks, I read they've again "decamp" to IBB. Idiots, they think we are all fools.
My question for those who claim that GEJ have nothing to show for his six months in office is: what has their champions IBB and AA got got show for their period in power? The evil genius had every opportunity to transform naija from underdeveloped to a developing country (afterall he had no constitutional constraint or parlement to contend with) instead he went on killing and looting spree. As for Atiku, don't expect anything.

why and why do u ppl not learn the way of the north nigeria

why do u ppl like tecnology(westen way)

we can only unite if u embrace islamic ways and follow sharia.

Kwarzaba mutane
Please, read the quran again and if you still don't understand it let someone who does help you.
Malaysia, Turkey, U.A.E., Bahrain etc are all Islamic states, yet they have managed to use the western technology to accelerate development in in these countries.

great, everybody is deserve to yan their opinion.
i just hope those nigerian engineer/scientist have a sound mind and learn quick. cus the truth is maga must surely pay for his/her ignorance. cus we don't need a repeat of these learning and spending experience with these chinese guys to experiment with our "dough" .
people can go hunger for the main time ,hunger will not kill as much as natural disaster in the future. if nigeria does n't do this , we won't be able to help our countrymen and the other smaller african nations.

some jokers use to say nigeria is safe when u talk about flooding , erosion=landslides ,boulder =mass movement . dem don no better now, flooding in sokoto, lagos, kogi, part of delta etc, erosion destroyed lands in anambra, edo etc.
the ocean problem in lagos has reduce 4 "now" in bar beach but later since the atlantic water will certainly raise in the future. it is only a sensible leader wey go school na im go continue with this project.
I agree completely with you. There are also many milions of poor people in China, but they are using modern technology to reduce poverty. In Nigerian we seem to rely on prayers alone to get our problems solved. What a shame.

Last year, I joined a group clamouring for Facebook to create a "Dislike" or "Hate" button. Not all of us who are on Goodluck's "fanpage" actually like him. We "Like" the fanpage so that we may observe the daily display of idiocy by the Facebook President.

Ribadu 2011
I like Ribadu too, but it would be better if he teamed up with GEJ in order to move naija forward. Ribadu alone doesn't stand a chance right now.

Amitex:
British colonials spent many years (if not 100yrs) b4 they came to north. British found south without clothes and have no standard way of life. So when colonials came, they faced no rejection frm south and startd teaching them how they want them to write or read. But when they came to north,they found them with their dress styles(for male and female) with even traditonal textile manufacture. They have their system of education (islamic and arabic) right from whats later known as nursery. They have their way of trade both local and int'l.administration:they knw who they are and civilised. So when colonials masters came to them, they repulsed them seriously. It is after years they captured north. While in south, they had been exporting slaves. Unfortunately, south learnd from british long b4 north, but innovated nothing but exam malpractice. You can come to north and find out if north could teach u both Islamic and western. education.


@Saidsalla, I guess you also believe that crude oil flowed from the Arabian Peninsula through your compound in the north and settled in the Niger delta.

CultureRe: What Is Your Take On Homosexualism? by sweet9ja: 10:14am On Jun 07, 2010
~Bluetooth:
did you just say God likes homosexuals and so we must accept them in our environs ? .this is so pathetic !!!!
Yes, I did. Why is it "so pathetic"? I think your position is even more, should I say, "pathetic".
What will you do if you find out that your employer, boss or colleague is gay? will you resign?
Look, enough of this dogma, the world is moving on and we as a nation need to move too.
CultureRe: What Is Your Take On Homosexualism? by sweet9ja: 1:15pm On Jun 06, 2010
All these talks about homosexuality being unAfrican and unGodly is all bull$$$$, cast your eyes around in Nigeria and you'll see that homosexuality abound. So what should we do, linch them? throw them in jail?
Homosexualism is as old as mankind itself, incase we've forgotten.
I live a country where same sex marriage is legal, God has not sent earthquake, flood, hunger, drought, corruption, economic mismanagement etc, etc, to consume us. Infact, those countries that practice tolerance and protection of the weak and minorities are continuously been rewarded by God. Nigerians and indeed Africans as whole need to reaccess their feelings and deed toward others. God created everyone and all great religions teach that we should love Gods creation. For Nigeria to be a viable democracy we must learn to be tolerant of other, regardless of their colour, creed, believe and sexual orientation. Rather, laws against sex with minors should be enacted and rigidly enforced.
PoliticsRe: Kaduna On Red Alert As Christian Prepares To Take Over by sweet9ja: 2:00pm On May 18, 2010
@poster, Thanks ones more for your response to my thread. I appologise if I have given the impression that sharia is against development of the north. Like you mentioned it is been practised in more developed nations around the world. However, I think in the case of Nigeria due to the high level of iliteracy, poverty and underdevelopment, the purpose was not primarily for the benefit of the society, rather a tool of oppression.
My case is, with more and better education, northerners will have better opportunities in life and will have better understanding of sharia. And I strongly believe that the scenerio you painted will then not surface at all. But right now these guys are there as willing tools at hand of evil doers.

One thing though, what are you and others of your kind in the north doing about this situation? Do you talk to the youths, parents, imams and the politicians about the need to focus on educating these people? Remember Afganistan and Pakistan? This we must avoid at all cost.

SHARIA AND POVERTY DON'T MIX VERY WELL.
PoliticsRe: Kaduna On Red Alert As Christian Prepares To Take Over by sweet9ja: 7:14pm On May 16, 2010
@poster, thanks for your well meaning post and the cool and civilized way you've responded to your critic so far.
I personally don't share your opinion, but I believe instead of name calling, we should as a matter of fact discuss in a more matured manner.
In 1999 when Obasanjo came to power, it was wided reported that the north, conservatively put, is about 40 to 50 years behind the south in
all development indexes. But some northern governors decided to introduce sharia instead of tackling head on the enormous economic challenges and I understand that many people in those states see sharia as a great leap forward. Ironically, some of these same (now former) governors are neck deep in corruption.
Now my question to you:
(1) Isn'tn it better for the north to educate the army of illitrate youth begging all over the place in order to create better challances for them in life?
(2) If the situation is so bleak as discribed in yours (and many others) threads, don't you think we should hold a sovereign national conference to sort things out now before they get out hand?

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Recalls Ambassador From Libya Over Gaddafi’s Statement by sweet9ja: 4:10pm On Mar 19, 2010
The critics of Col Qaddafi are just not sincere at all. Where were you when the US predicted the breakup of Nigeria, complete with a date, what did you do? This time we got a good opinion on how to deal with the problem, again we are behaving as if everything is fine. Those who think this is an internal issue are either, foolish, ignorant or don't understand the working of international relation. Take for instance, there is another civil war in Nigeria, million of Nigerians will seek refuge in other countries including Lybia, thereby overwhelming the governments and the people of those countries. This is one such scenarios that the Lybian leader has foreseen and is trying to avoid. In as much as I hate to, I do agree with the Lybian colonel and strongly disapprove of the action taken by the federal government on this issue.  angry angry angry
