The problem about this kind of people is that at the end of the day, you discovered that they are unable to transfer their professional dexterity to governmental administration.

The best thing for democracy is to allow any innovations, health treatment to be chosen by one's preference which is base on belief and mentality.

US seems to have being breeding a loath for catholicism since the arrival of english to the new world. Before John Fitzgerald Kennedy could win the election in 1960 as the first and only catholic then, he had to undergo additional stress of convincing them of his faith.

See no reasons why catholics will be comparing the the USA administration with Russian administration cos of the rivalry which hasn't finally ended.

I don't think there is any reason to count chime Sulivan among those governors that shunned the meeting because his absence is understandable which is base on his health and also away from nigeria.

How does one expect GEJ to perform when everything that concerns him is 2015 and nothing else.

I pray it isn't Alzheimer
disease o!
Don't want Nelson Mandela to be the South African version of American Ronald Reagan.

What about the case of mosquito species, vectors for plasmodium spp that cause malaria where one needs attacking the messenger i.e mosquito so that the message i.e malaria from the plasmodium spp are not manifested at the end of the day?

coogar: i would put your brain power slightly below that of a culex mosquito!
what has tribe gotta do with management or mismanagement - to the people who built these houses and stay there often, kudos to them! to the ones who built these expensive houses and leave them empty then it's nothing but gross mismanagement! you must be a semi-illiterate.

semi-illiterate indeed!

Nice, Mr Raji Babatunde Fashola!
Things that are supposed to have been done before now, but trying to be adamant with the state government telling us they are losing billions daily as if they are engaged in world bank transaction.
Every game has its rule one must abide in. Just play by the rule and you won't be caught foul.

ngozievergreen: Forget that thing

in my nursery 1, my teacher taught us a poem:
i know! I know!!
The little i know,
I WILL NEVER FORGET

ngozievergreen: Drug barons pass for 'evil genius' group better dan a president that destabilises his country. Osama genius is even better.

had you read many things about IBB, you would know that he is an evil genius.

ngozievergreen: IBB no get any type of ingenuity whether good or evil for my mind, i dont know for yours

ngozi! You said for your mind? Guess you need creating a space for me in your mind to dwell forever so that i will continue and always say what is in your mind. Seems you want me to be saying what is in your mind.

le ostrich: Genius indeed! Only in
Nigeria will a people be
constantly collectively f00led
and consider the
perpetrators as Geniuses.
Maggaz

ngozievergreen: Thank u very much. I like dis response. Only in Nigeria indeed is IBB, OBJ, Abacha are considered geniuses. D likes of Innoson, the various novelists,etc are ordinary people. *smh*

why you no go like am? So
non of you can understand what evil genius is?

What a genius, though evil that decided not trusting anyone even his close friend after he realised he could betray him. Not like another general that decided to make his enemies his aids.

Not really but will slightly reduce.
Seems the OP has forgotten that this is nigeria where everything can be manipulated to suite our intention.
If you say sango and amadioha? Have you forgotten that some people(priest) are in charge of these deities that knows what to use to appease the deities.
What if the deities' wand presented by the priests are fake how are we going to know.

Ope o!
Thank God!
At least my tribe owns the 1st 3 and 5 schools out of the first 10 universities.
But they said the north of niger people are backward in education. Why do they have 3 schools in the top ten with the boko haram menace on education?
Waiting for the polytechnic list.

Update ur post with the source's website .

Nice work by the police force. How i wish they are consistent with this task of protecting the citizens!

This practice is common among the igbo tribe. And i think that is one of the reorientation of the civil war. Cos after the war, most of their houses built in the north were confisticated and never returned to them. Besides, many of them are mobile moving from one location to the other for business transaction.
In yorubaland, there is this saying 'ile ni abo isinmi oko' (after the day farmwork, home is the resting place). They believe that after spending their youthful and productive age in another man's land, the next thing is to go back home and retire to enjoy what they have acquired.
Seems many hausas aren't really interested in life outside their territory except some that come with trailer to the southern sabos. Though they are many in lagos.

The problem about the MASSOB is just lipservice. The last time, they said declaration of biafra state in november 5.
Better they are serious and united so that people will recognise their agitation.
Moreover, when are they going to declare the public holiday for the dead bodies found on the anambra river!

Mtchew!
Nonsense. Little wonder they are enslaved in their country.
Told by his ancestor to marry for ritual sake. How can a 8yr boy recognise his ancestor?

I don't think so!
Many igbos don't believe in nigeria but biafra. So what is the point ruling what they don't believe in!

Dejo Tumfulu!
That is the only character am contented with his role and personal life which has not recorded any scandal against be it womanizing, fraudulence or drug dealings. So i owe him many bottles of drinks for that.

I am not really bothered about the power sharing formula of the APC.
All i want is another viable party that can stand head to head and match the super power of the present PDP. So that when an administration fail to perform, we can turn our focus to another party for deliverance. And won't continue to wander in the same wilderness of mediocrity.
When the Americans were experiencing the great depression under the administration of Calvin Coolidge and Herbert Clark Hoover all Republicans in the year 1929 to early 1940s, the americans had to go for the next party for salvation in the Democrats presenting Franklin Delano Roosevelt. And it worked.
We don't need being stereotyped and glued to a party, this is democracy for goodness sake.
But the problem with nigerian politics is the same people keep on crossing carpets and changing party.

ANOTHER DIFFERENCE BETWEEN APC's VISIT AND PDP's VISIT TO BORNO STATE!

Still wanna carry on when nursing a kidney failure which places him on a dialyses every 2days!
Well, what does one expect from a typical camerounian in power?
Ahmadou Ahidjo became president when cameroun became independent on jan 1 1960 to 1982 when he was forced to vacate power by his deteriorating health handing over power to the prime minister, Paul Biya. Paul Biya started ruling since that 1982 till date.

JOHANNESBURG (AFP) –
Cameroonian strongman Issa
Hayatou will be re-elected
unopposed in Morocco on
Sunday for a final four-year
term as Confederation of
African Football (CAF)
president.
The 66-year-old, voted into
power during the 1988 Cup
of Nations in the north
African kingdom, told
reporters last month that this
would be last period as boss
of the 54-state organisation.
His decision to carry on took
some observers by surprise
with World Soccer magazine
reporting that he is suffering
from kidney failure that
requires dialysis every
second day.
Ivorian Jacques Anouma, one
of four Africans on the
executive committee of
world governing body FIFA,
wanted to oppose Hayatou
at the CAF congress in
Marrakech, but a change to
the election rules disqualified
him.
Anouma and the Ivorian and
Liberian football associations
made four appeals to the
Switzerland-based Court for
Arbitration in Sport (CAS) in
an effort to overturn the
ruling, but it backed CAF each
time.
The 60-year-old Ivorian
believes Hayatou was behind
a successful Algerian
proposal at a special
congress in the Seychelles
last year to amend the rules
and restrict the CAF
presidency to voting
members of the executive
committee.
Although permitted to attend
CAF executive meetings,
Anouma cannot vote
because he is not an elected
member, and the 44-6
verdict in favour of the
change suggests he would
have suffered a heavy
election defeat by Hayatou.
The Cameroonian has been
challenged twice during his
lengthy reign and both
opponents, Armando
Machedo of Angola and
Ismail Bhamjee of Botswana,
suffered humiliating losses.
“It is a scandalous
manoeuvre which belongs to
a past era,” complained
Anouma. “Our continent
deserves a confederation
that is truly democratic,
transparent and ready to
face the real challenges.”
But there has been no
shortage of support for
Hayatou, the son of a sultan
from northern cotton city
Garoua who represented
Cameroon at basketball and
middle-distance running.
“Hayatou has offered a new
platform for African football
with innovative competitions
like the African Nations
Championship and we
unanimously renewed our
trust in his leadership,” said
central Africa region boss Iya
Mohammed.
West Africa region official
Jammeh Bojang said: “We
pledge our continuous
support for Hayatou to lead
African football. The game
has seen many changes in
development and we are
solidly behind his stay in
office.”
Hayatou is the fifth CAF
president and by far the
longest serving ahead of
Ethiopian Ydnekatchew
Tessema (15 years), Egyptian
Abdel Aziz Moustafa (10),
Sudanese Abdel Halim
Mohammad (5) and Egyptian
Abdel Aziz Abdallah Salem (1).
Apart from crowning
Hayatou, there will be
elections for four executive
committee positions while
Algerian Mohamed
Raouraoua (North) and
Sudanese Magdi Sham El Din
(Centre-East) return
unopposed.
Former South African
politician Danny Jordaan, one
of the officials credited with
a successful 2010 World Cup
in his country, is among six
challengers for two South
seats.
CAF vice-president Suketu
Patel from the Seychelles is
expected to top the polling
with Jordaan set to finish
second ahead of officials
from Madagascar,
Mozambique, Namibia and
Swaziland.
Among four candidates for a
West A seat is Malian
Amadou Diakite, banned by
FIFA for two years in 2010
over alleged bribery in the
vote-buying scandal around
the 2018 and 2022 World
Cup hosting.
The draw for the Cup of
Nations qualifying
competition — home-and-
away preliminary ties this
year and a six-round group
phase next year — is also
scheduled for this weekend
with Morocco exempt as
2015 hosts.

SINCE penultimate Saturday, it
has been anguish in
Akwukwu-Igbo,
headquarters of Oshimili
North Local Government Area
ofDelta State, where
rainstorm rendered over
5,000 persons homeless and
destroyed no fewer than 200
houses.
A two –year –old child, Agilga
Okafor, and her mother was
struck by the storm which
started around 5.00 pm.
It was as if the forces of
nature particularly chose the
community for the attack, as
none of the neighboring
communities was affected by
the storm.
The rainstorm, which pulled
off the roof of the mortuary
of the General Hospital,
Akwukwu-Igbo, did not also
spare the dead.
Traditional ruler of the
community, HRM, Obi David
Azuka, whose palace was
damaged, told Sunday
Vanguard, “It was a calamity
that befell us, we have not
seen this kind of thing
before in this town.”
A medical personnel said,
“There is fear that the
corpses in the mortuary will
be exposed if there is rainfall
now and we expect
government to act fast to
avoid an epidemic.”
A source said, “Six persons,
including a woman who was
unconscious, a pupil with
laceration from Madona
Comprehensive School,
Akwukwu Igbo, were rushed
to the General Hospital,
Akwukwu Igbo, but many of
the victims, especially those
with broken hands legs and
hands, decided to go to
traditional medicine
practitioners.”
Mrs. Okafor and her son
were initially taken to a
traditional doctor before
they were taken to the
General Hospital, on Monday,
two days after the disaster.
However, the state
government has intervened
by sending the
Commissioner for Special
Duties, Chief Tony Nwaka, to
the community. Obi Azuka
confirmed the visit of Nwaka
and the chairman of Oshimili
North Local Government
Area.
His words, “The
commissioner said he was
sent by Governor Emmanuel
Uduaghan to assess the
situation and promised that
government would assist in
rebuilding damaged
property. The chairman of
the local government council
also said they would assist.”
Besides the mortuary of the
General Hospital, Akwukwu-
Igbo, our source said the
doctor s residential quarters
theatre, laundry, general out-
patient department, GOPD,
walk way, female ward, chief
nursing officer’s flat, plant
house and pharmacy were
affected.”
Managing director of
Haalimonwo Ventures,
Akwukwu-Igbo, also affected
by the storm, Mr. Jude
Amaize, said, “There is
practically no household in
the community that was not
affected by the rainstorm,
this is a terible mishap and
we call on the relevant
authorities to come the aid
of the people”.

[quote author=*556#]It won't make any sense to you since I finally exposed your nature. OJUKWU sold Jonathan to his masters the Hausas only declaring support for IBB against his so-called Ijaw brother.

The most embarrassing part of the situation is that the 29 people that will be sponsored to Dubai for the wedding ceremony are well to do people that have the money to go to Dubai and even shuttle between Dubai and Nigeria at will. And not those that can't afford the flight.

God of clue, i know say you no dey house when GEJ dey contest, since you don show now, abeg dash our president clue so that he won't remain clueless again.

Every curse wey he don recieve ignorantly from madam like calling herself widow when she saw her fellow widows. Don't let it come to pass.

He said we should pray that all those involved in the independence day celebration should confess. God answer the prayer.

By 2015 let us come to rejoice with him that he has entered the election to his house with Madam patience safely without any problem.

Also some newspapers like punch have a column where they publish what the social media says mostly nairaland.
Was just surprised when my neighbor that knows my handle came to show me my comment on driver's graduate in dangote school.
