You make me laugh really. grin

Please show where the opposition launched impeachment proceedings but could not get the 2/3rd, Misitah I-am-not-a-Dullard.

I dey wait oh.......

In the meantime shake that your head wella grin
Hahahaha!
Always a key sign of folks with empty 'coconuts'. When pressed to substantiate claims, they start moving goal-posts.

You claimed APC + other opposition parties 'should have impeached' GEJ because they had 'nearly 50%' in both houses.

After being corrected and educated on what the Nigerian Constitution says, it has now changed to 'launched impeachment proceedings but could not get the 2/3rd'. cheesy cheesy

Why would they launch a bid that would be doomed to failure?

But good thing that it is known that during a crisis period, APC senators were trying to build alliances with some aggrieved PDP members to rid us of a mediocre leader. See link below

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/11/impeachment-apc-senators-embark-mobilization-jonathan/

ABUJA—All Progressives Congress, APC, Senators are allegedly making frantic moves towards mobilizing their members and aggrieved Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, senators to ensure the purported impeachment plot against President Goodluck Jonathan commences anytime the Senators meet next week.
Waiting for you to move goalposts again, Mr TANoid cheesy

To be honest, there's something seriously OFF about her response.

Police broke into your house and carted away your 'husband's car' and your official car (that now belongs to you). You pen an open letter and not even once talk about going to court to pursue legal recourse to recovering your cars, or any other recovery measures you'd expect an aggrieved citizen to use!

Nah, that just doesn't ring right with me. Nobody will surrender their personal cars without a fight.

Do you know why the OVERSIGHT activities of our legisLOOTER did not pick this up & impeach the former president if what you said is true & sensible huh

At least the oppositionhad almost 50% control of both chambers!
To impeach a president, you need 2/3rd majority in both houses. Not 'nearly 50%'

Later you will be calling your president 'dullard'. Smh

This is what happens when a country's intelligence agencies are used to fish out criminals and terrorists instead of what we were seeing with the DSS under The previous administration when the DSS abandoned duty for politics.

Have we run out of politicians and legislooters to name and shame that we are exposing a private citizen up to public ridicule ?

This stuff could have been nipped in the bud a long time ago. But the last administration foolishly allowed this monster to grow and fester.

Now the same people that say Buhari should not be given credit for the PHC refinery revamp "because it is not a one week effort" are the ones insisting that Buhari takes the blame for Boko Haram suicide bombing.

This is what happens when your intelligence agencies are diverted to harassing your political opponents instead of fishing out bomb-makers and their suppliers.

DaGC:
GEJ's administration was the height??. I beg to differ. I thought Nigeria was losing way more than 400k barrels daily, many years back.

Funny enough, I doubt the Navy has all the resources to safe guard Nigeria's vast coastal areas at the moment, unless a rapid overhaul and purchase of more equipment gets in. The past administration has done its part by also equipping the Navy even when it was fighting a war in the north east, so hopefully, this and subsequent administrations will follow suit and equip our military and security agencies.
How can you 'beg to differ' when you aren't even sure?

We were losing production during thecreek war because stations were shut down and pipelines were being blown. But the oil stayed in the ground, available for us to produce now in peacetime.
Now, 400k barrels are being stolen daily, never to be seen again. All the talk about the Navy being equipped and yet it's Tompolo who is being paid fantastic sums to protect our waterways. Of what benefit is it to buy equipment and yet handicap the Navy by limiting their authority?
Politics › Re: OPC Pulls Out Of NNPC Pipeline Surveillance by texazzpete(m): 6:36am On Jun 16, 2015
DaGC:
Nigeria is a truly complicated country.

When the pipelines were being protected by the said 'security agencies', Nigeria was losing millions of barrels. Even with the private security contractors, we are still losing 400,000 barrels daily.

What's the way forward?
You are misinformed, sir.
Oil bunkering has NEVER hit the heights it has hit under the GEJ administration.
Even with the locals providing 'protection ', oil theft soared to 400k barrels per day.

Give the locals the contract , but supervise. Stop all the ocean going smuggling crude oil from leaving the shores of this country. When they realize that there's nowhere to dispose of the stolen crude, let me see if they won't drastically cut back on oil bunkering or drink the crude.

He's been addressing the Boko haram menace. Reforging alliances with the neighboring countries. Discussing aid and collaboration with the G7 nations. Moved army base to maiduguri to ensure the army leadership sits up.

Unfortunately, he cannot fix your IQ if you genuinely think it is 20 days since Friday, May 29th

ibb and yar adua were fluent and eloquent when speaking at any international conference and they radiated authority moreover they too were hausas. The way and manner a president expresses himself goes a long way in determining how his fellow presidents will view him. He needs to work on his carriage ,kings and presidents are always trained on how to behave and he doesn't want that let him delegate this speech making to osinbajo
Can you PLEASE tell me what an accent has to do with 'carriage'?
Have you ever seen a picture of Buhari where he isn't standing tall and strong?
You started talking about accent and now it's babbling about 'how to behave'. What does his accent have to do with his 'behavior'?


Stop conflating issues and focus on important things. People who are being slaughtered by BH in borno are not interested in whether Buhari speaks with a crystal clear British accent or not

That doesn't have anything to do with this. Buhari IS speaking English. And it's not like he's struggling with 'big' words. It's just his accent we are discussing now. And that's colored by the first language he learnt to speak.

I view this type of unimportant criticism as trivial, coming from those who are not intelligent enough to challenge our President on more weighty issues like security and the economy.

No he hasn't. Buhari supporters should be above this type of topic, to be honest.
There is a clear metric for measuring improved power situation, and that's in the number of megawatts generated. Not the "I've had light in my area for a week now" anecdotal evidence.

In comparing generated amount, you must also discount improvements from nature with the rains boosting generated power at our hydroelectric dams.

We are still waiting for change in our power sector. It is our hope that Buhari does something , but let's not indulge in unwarranted praise.

Business › Re: Confusion At Ports As FG Increases Import Tariff by texazzpete(m): 10:00am On Jun 12, 2015
handsomeclouds:
Domestic producers benefit by ultimately facing reduced competition in their home market, which leads to lower supply levels and higher prices for consumers. Less of the good is produced, and consumers pay higher prices.

Although-When a consumer does purchase a higher-priced imported good with a tariff imposed on it, the consumer now has less money to spend on other things. This forces consumers to either buy less of the imported good or less of some other good, ultimately lowering the purchasing power of consumers. It is important to remember that although consumers may pay higher prices because of tariffs and have limited options, the potential benefit is that domestic sales of goods can increase, ultimately leading to higher domestic sales and more jobs for companies inside the country.
Let the companies locally compete on quality and price. Why should locally assembled autos with crazy tax breaks and already reduced import duties be anywhere near as expensive as imported vehicles?
