awodman: Don't Mind them bro...The world is taking note..
Its not by chance that GEJ became the 1st Nigerian leader to ring the closing bell at NYSE...
Its not by chance that GEJ is the 4th world to address UN general assembly this year
Its not by chance that the whole Africa is supporting Nigeria as Non-permanent member of the UN security council barely 2 years after we left that position

Soon ordinary Nigerians will begin to feel this positives..Who God has blessed no man can stop

In the 50 years since Independence in 1960 to 2010, All d former Presidents/HeadsofState cud only get Nigeria elected to the UN Security Council 3 times; WHILST, GEJ in just over 3 years has gotten Nigeria to that August Council 2 times. And Unanimously too, both from ECOWAS and d AU and the World....


That's whats up, Bruv

sheyie2007: who?

The HATERS now! Dem full NL; even you join them smaalll

doctokwus: Has he ever come out to acclaim Tinubu as not being corrupt,that charges against him are framed up?If d govt that has d ability to investigate him,evn going to d extent of taking him to court,but having d case brought by d prosecution being ridiculed by d presiding judge;cannot succesfully prosecute him,is it somebody like buhari wt no power to do so for now dat will?Even in far advanced democracies,we av seen instances wen a party wt no clear majority has had to form coalition wt parties wt questionable characters& ideals,contrary to that of its coalition partner.Its a doctrine of forced necessity.

Even you know that you are NOT making any Sense here...

That's whats up. Other serious persons looking at d FACTS and positioning themselves to get d most Benefits possible, WHILST a few local HATERS desperately playing d we-go-spoil-am-if-we-no-get game are running about the place making plenty Noise.

They will FAIL, and this country wud continue to Stride Forward and fulfil her Great Potentials in our time.

NB: Nigeria moved 38th places UP d Ranking in 10 yrs

Hehehehehe .....

doctokwus: What is buhari's own in this.U all dat think buhari is comfortable wt being in d same party wt tinubu underestimate d man.He has seen dat in today's political atmosphere,u must temporary dine wt d devil in order to achieve ur objective,get it& deal wt d devil.
So pls keep buhari out of any looting tinubu& his likes av done

Then what sort of Leader does that say about d man Buhari? What does it say about his Integrity? Shebi, d line is that he is a 'Man of Integrity'??

jmaine: Your aimless, futile, fruitless trashing and ranting online changes nothing , it only represents wasteful foolishness . . .

You are just another demented toad hopping and trashing about to no where.
When your frustrated rant about those placed several heavens above you changes a Nano particle of events, then we might begin to take you serious.

Again, you are just another nonentity without worth . . .

lol....very appropiately put

CFCfan: Waternogetenemy's 2nd pic was an earlier draft of the new terminal, which has been discarded. The building on the left in the 1st pic is what will be built.

Oya, show us more Pisure now

Very GOOD move by d FG... Time to stop sharing money from d Reserves (esp d Excess Fund) in d name of 'Augumentation' to these bone-azzz lazy States and Local Govts. They shld go and mk money themselves...

Mr President, CONTINUE with d works joor... Continue to SHAME 'them', Sir. We dey yr back......... Oh! Forgot. May God bless Minister Oduah too

payless: Did you know for how long Jonathan Administration lobbied Hillary Clinton's State Department in order to get Jonathan to meet Obama in Washington? Jonathan was finally given an audience in New York due to U.N Assembly meeting and you think we should celebrate it. By the way, who told you Obama is meeting other world leaders at Waldorf? You are more clueless and stup1d than I thought. I don't blame you because there is no cable or electricity in Nigeria to actually know what is going on in the news. Stupid id1ot like you won't know what is disrespectful when it hits you in the face. Would Obama meet Camron or Netenyahu at Waldorf Hotel to discuss something important? You have tendency to be emotionally disturbed frequently on this forum anytime your master is talked about. I wanted to ask ask: where did you derive your username from? Are you an al-qaeda agent. Your username sounds like one.

So TOOOL, where wud Obama be meeting d Chinese President and other Presidents he wud be meeting on d Sidelines?? The White House in Bronkyl perhaps?... Plz, be fast with d answer cos am preparing my real response to you after that

Good...

God bless the Green-White-Green....

payless: American Presidents only meet with world's respected leaders at the Whitehouse. It is disrespectful to meet a Nigerian President at Waldorf Hotel for few minutes.

Oh!! SHUT ya ffucking mouth UP. You guys are taking this unbridled HATRED for a single individual too damn far; its almost making you chaps fickling CRAAAAZZY.

This is the Side lines of the UN General Assembly in New York, not Washigton. This is the same place Obama wud meet with the Chinese, Brazil President and others.

FOOOOLish, Noisemaking 'Opposition' CLOWNS.....*spitsondem*

Same in Benin o... It has hardly stopped since yterday night

doctokwus: Hope d nigerian govt ddnt pay d NYSE for GEJ to ring d closing bell because I av dis gut feeling dat short on achievements,d deal wud av been brokered,so dat his stooges can acclaim dat GEJ 4 being d 1st ever nig president to ring d bell of d nyse,is a remarkable achievement!Wish somebody cud just investigate to know if any sort of money was paid

I hv it on Good Authority (from an Impeccable Source) that he paid. Mandela and the very few Leaders, including d Chinese President, who hv bn given this honour also bribed the Exchange. He also paid all d top Businessmen from d Exchange who wud be meeting with him to discuss business with Nigeria. He bribed them ALL, including Richard Quest of CNN who conducted d interview... OK now?

Sincere 9gerian: Why cant Lagos buy buses from Innoson Motors? If they buy local, availability of spare part will not be an issue. Why import what can be bought locally?

SIMPLE, abi??.... You can take a guess as to d LASG hv not thought about (sic?) a Solution to their 'BIG' problem that is this easy

payless: Did you buy your personal car from Innoson? That is if you do have a car.

kai!!! But some of una DULL sha..

Dear President continue to Rep Nigeria and project her interest well... Those Mongers who thought they cud somehow lessen the benefits of this Strategic trip to New York (d SR's Ridiculous 600-man Entourage come to mind) have FAILED, already.

awodman: Care to substantiate your allegations above because according to the NDPHC 7 of this plants are ready..Even Gov Fayemi of ekiti attested to this
www.nairaland.com/1366269/500-engineers-recruited-new-power-plants

You said its only olorunsogo and sapele but

1) Geregu 11 has been completed
www.nairaland.com/1320442/434-mw-geregu-11-power-plant
2) Omotosho has been completed
www.nairaland.com/1218121/omotosho-power-plant-ready-commissioning

Stop wasting yr time, Bros. Just join me laugh.. Hehehehehe

software man: of all the NIPP(now niger delta holding company) plants only sapele and olorunsogo stands a good chance of being commisioned before 2015(there is no guarantee that it will even be available to the national grid) Most of the others are at mostly 20% completion stage.

The truth is that even if olorunsogo(750MW) and sapele (450mv) come on stream , there is no transmission capacity to handle it as most transmission expansion projects are still at mostly 20% completion.


The truth is that they themselves know that the promise of 10,000mw is a fraud, they only make these promises because they know no one believe them any longer.The people that cannot sustain generation of 3600MV from installed capacity without constantly experiencing system failure anytime they get close to 3500MW are promising 10,000 when the system does not even have the transmission capacity for 5000MW.



secondly,What other substantiation do you need that cronyism trailed the entire award when rockson engineering(odili and arik) was awarded more than 65% of the expected capacity and has only built less than 20% of their own expected capacity eight years into the project. Why was the project not awarded directly to reputable international power companies like mitsubishi and siemens.

Jonathan is either being deceived or he is deceiving the people. if he is so sure he can deliver 10,000 or even less to the national grid by 2015, let him stake his 2015 ambition on it. of course he will not.

Hehehehehe..... That is d only tin I can do afta reading this, so boldly asserted in public: laugh.. Hehehehe

obailala: I can't agree with you more that half truths could be very dangerous but when we unfortunately live in a society where no truth exists, you will be left with no choice but to accept the half truths and then make what you can of it with your own wisdom.

The fact remains that if Sahara Reporters did not raise this issue, no single media organisation in Nigeria would have been bold enough to mention it and consequently, Nigerians would have been oblivious of this profligacy.

Yes we know SR could sometimes blow issues out of proportion so when I read their stories, I use my wisdom to moderate some of their figures. For instance, GEJ may not have taken a 600-man delegation but based on the SR story and the shallow defence of Mr Abati, I can bet you that delegation will not be less than 200.

...And just to clarify something, a critic of the government reserves the right to be either constructive or destructive. All that matters is that the criticism knocks the government to order.

Just hear yrself: so Destructive criticism 'knocks the Govt to order'?... Too many DONKEYs around *smh*

Akshow: guy park ur silly self well make i see front see better people abeg. crazed gej black as,.ss licker

Release. Release... I get it, Bros. Believe me

Akshow: shut up dat traaaap u call ur mouf steeeeeewpid imp. how many times did Kenya pledge support to fight our own bh for us? abi u are so bereft of good reasoning that u did not know that scores jus died in borno n yobe and ur useless president has not even address the nation but has time to send message to kenya. charity they say begins at home. honestly silly trolls like u with their blind patriotism are the problem with this country. constructive criticism hurts no one and believe me everyone criticizing gej here have a valid point to do so. so shut that gutter u called ur mouf and for once comment without being overtly sentimental about the obvious daftness of ur president. ewu gambia

MOUTH. Na only that una get.... You are in Pains; I can see that from yr comment. Releasing sm of it tru NOISEMAKING is completely understandable. You hv my Empathy...

dbride: Must we become mad because others are mad? Must you deceive because others deceive? Do the right thing and others will follow! President Jonathan has no business offering assistance to Kenya just because others did it. Jonathan must dare to be different and that is wisdom. He does not have any assistance to give. It is stup1dity to offer assistance to a man whose house is on fire when yours is on fire too and you are still struggling to help yourself.

Abeg, SHUT yr mouth tha. Who are you quoting and 'advising' with yr EMPTY head. If you do not know anytin bout Diplomatic Etiquette in matas like this, plz dont presume to 'advice' me. You lots can continue to wallow in yr IGNORANCE and SENTIMENTS as long as you wish, though..

SLIDE waxie:
we sacked thousands, employ hundreds....

we try na

Sacked thousands; paid them millions as Retirement benefits (with which they CAN invest in other businesses and employ others); create a new Private market which wud employ thousands more in d long run, esp new peeps; all in a bid to providing Reliable Power for Nigerians- the Ultimate joker for providing many many many substainable JOBS going further..... I think I like dis Alternative bera

take dat: Why reply if you ain't interested? When did you join the bandwagon of wimps and whiners cos I am sure you are not dyslexic. The bone of contention is not where the president is staying or how much he is paying, it is in the 'details/clue' SR gave to buttress her story.

So what is d significance/purpose for the 'details/clue' then?? @takedat, are u even listening to yourself?

awodman: According to Gov Fayemi..another 500 engineers are to be recruited for the NIPP plants

www.nairaland.com/1366269/500-engineers-recruited-new-power-plants

Let them start coming. By d time d new Winners take over d 14 Genco/Discos, and other Private Cops come into d market, d Employment rush during d start of d Telecoms Revo wud be created again... even more

berem: Fool! how many times have Uhuru Kenyatta send condolence and assistance to Jonathan and Nigerian Government since boko haram started killing people? You dey craze!!

NO. Kenya has NEVER sent Condolences to Nigeria cos they dont like GEJ just like yourself. GEJ is only doing busy-body now cos he wants d Kenyans to like him.... Satisfied?? ANOFIA EKITE

take dat: *What of the proof that the President is staying at the Pierre Hotel? Abati did not refute this claim in his rejoinder.

*What of the proof that the President is lodged in a suit that costs $10,000 per night? Abati kept mum on this as well.

You claim the onus is on SR to provide proof? Did Abati and co not debunk SR proof on Patience Jonathan's health saga? Did Abati not promise to release the list of those who traveled to Ethiopia and has not done that till date? If SR publishes the list, some will still claim its fictitious, crying bucket full of tears and hovering on top of GEJ's excrement mound simply because they believe the 'Presidency can do no wrong'.

BTW, a serious government would have released the names of those who traveled along side the President. Abi no be government dey mouth platitude about openness and transparency?

Oh! Please. Stop writing plenty meaningless words; not interested. He who accuses shld provide 'proof' for d accusation, never d other way round. SIMPLE..... I bliv d reason Abati didn't say anytin about d Hotel tin is cos it's just too Ridiculous. Where do you expect d President to stay? Where are other Presidents staying? Where did other Nigerian Presidents stay when they visited? Oh I forgot! Maybe d President shld hv stayed in a motel Or perhaps even BEG one of d numerous Nigerians living in New York to accomodate him for d week, cos he is GEJ...

MightyT: [b]On the criticism that his administration was not doing enough to tackle corruption, Jonathan said he would rather deal with facts and numbers instead of speculation.
He pointed to the agriculture sector where N25 billion was being spent on subsidising fertilizer by past regimes which barely reached farmers, adding, however, that the trend had been reversed under his administration.

“N25 billion was being spent in the past to make cheap fertilizer available which hardly reached the end users. But today, we cut the amount to N5 billion to N6 billion per annum and 80 per cent of farmers have access to fertilizer to improve their yields. Yet they say I am not doing enough to curb corruption,” Jonathan said.

In the area of the power sector, he added that his administration had implemented the most transparent privatisation programme that was above board, adding, “No one gave us a chance. But for the first time, the federal government has implemented the most transparent privatisation programme, which was above board.

“The winners have emerged and will be taking over the distribution and generation companies in the next few weeks.

“With the handover of the power sector to the private sector, we will begin to witness improvement in electricity generation and intend to hit 10,000 megawatts of electricity generation by next year.

“Through the privatisation programme, we realised close to $3 billion which again is the highest ever realised from the sale of government companies.

“[size=17]This is unlike what obtained in the past when the process was corrupted by those who were responsible for it. Yet the same people have the temerity to say I am corrupt when they could not run a clean process[/size].”
The president also spoke on the petroleum downstream sector in which he said his administration tried to remove subsidies, but could not do so because Nigerians opposed the scheme.

“If this government was corrupt, I would not have asked that subsidies on petrol should be removed. I could have left it as it was in the past where we had all manner of marketers defrauding the government of billions of naira.

“But when I tried to remove the subsidy on petrol, we were forced to reduce it because we had to consider the demands of the Nigerian people who did not want the subsidy removed,” he said.[/b]

Very well said, Mr President......
