Fashola telling the president to -go use five days at chibok is like telling Mr President GO AND DIE

PassingShot:
Na wa o! That he did what he did as a deputy governor has now become a campaign tool! Shioor.


GEJ, no matter his deceiving posture and calm outward look, can best be described as a man who was destined to be president even though he was not fit to be a local government chairman.

By his public utterances and actions, you surely cannot miss the fact that his presidency has been disastrous to the nation.

Definitely u r from France. Because people from France never see anything good in other people

All of the great leaders have had one
characteristic in common: it was the
willingness to confront unequivocally the
major anxiety of their people in their time.
This, and not much else, is the essence of
leadership. —John Kenneth Galbraith.
There are three kinds of people: Those you
meet and instantly forget a few minutes
later. Those that give you a negative
impression when you meet them, and those
that leave long-lasting pleasant memories
after you’ve met them.
I am Onyeizu Chinedu from Obingwa LGA
of Abia State; a Harvard University trained
professional and a Petroleum Engineering
graduate of the Federal University of
Technology, Owerri.
In late 2002, I was posted to Bayelsa State as a
“Batch A” National Youth Service Corp member.
After the three weeks orientation camp, I was
assigned to serve in Kiama Grammar School,
Kolokuma/Opokuma Local Government Area;
where I taught physics and mathematics.
Of course, I had a pleasant experience
teaching in the community school and
hanging out with friends and other corps
members most evenings under the famous
Kiama bridge.
One of the most significant incidents of
my youth service experience occurred
outside the classroom and it started with a
visit from an elderly friend of mine, Papa,
who supplied fresh plantain and fish to
corpers. Anytime he visited, I observed a
cloudy white substance that covered a
large part of his right eye. While we
conversed, I remembered we were
encouraged at the NYSC orientation camp
to engage in group or personal community
development projects (CDP). So the idea
of surfing the net for an NGO to help the
old man came to my mind, at the same
time, as a corps member who had
benefited from his free food, I decided to
make it a personal CDP and explore any
opportunity to relieve his condition.
Initially, I pondered whether my meager
N11,500 monthly allowance popularly
referred to as allowee will be enough to
accommodate an extra investment in a
humanitarian initiative and also sustain me
in Kiama village. But since Papa wouldn’t
hesitate to share his bunch of plantain,
which is actually all that he had, I didn’t
waste time to conclude that any effort to
restore Papa’s sight will be worth my time,
energy and allowance.
The first thing I did was to register the
initiative as an NYSC CDP. Afterwards, I
started researching to learn about the
name and cause of his eye infection.
When I was told it was cataract, I started
surfing the net on weekends to either find
a group, an NGO or a medical institution
that will be willing to offer free eye service
surgery to Papa. As luck could have it, I
found a medical charity in the United
Kingdom, “Sight 2020 Direct”. I wrote them
an e-mail, asking whether they could come
to Bayelsa for a free eye surgery camp.
After several e-mail exchanges, I was able
to convince the group to come.
However, I didn’t know that I had a big
bureaucratic hurdle to jump with the state
government ministries. For common sense
sake, we are referring to a group of
ophthalmologists and nurses that are
coming to carry out a free, again free eye
saving surgery for cataract blind persons
in the state. With the assumption that
government officials would be enthusiastic
about the project, I reached out to the
Bayelsa State Commissioner for Health
and the numerous special advisers to the
Governor on health matters. To my utmost
surprise, I was turned to a ping pong
“Chinedu come tomorrow , Chinedu the
commissioner is busy with an important
delegation, Chinedu the initiative is
laudable, we will consider it and call you,
Chinedu do a formal application using the
NYSC letterhead etc.” After three months
of seeking for help and support from the
government, I exhausted my resources and
the resources of the corps members that
volunteered to help.
At a point, my small team and I decided to
organize the eye camp on our own. We
informed the NYSC state office and got
approval to go ahead with a humanitarian
branded message and creative ideas on
how to execute the project. We started
making progress as more corps members
volunteered to join. Soon we had
opticians, medical doctors, etcin the team.
We set up make shift diagnostic centers
across the state, used opticians that
volunteered in areas outside Yenagoa.
Within weeks, we registered over 50 blind
patients and conducted visual acuity tests
on them. I remember organizing a
sensitization road walk along the major
streets of Yenagoa wearing a white T-
shirt; we branded “Sight for all Bayelsans
in 2003”. Because we had no money, we
produced the road walk T-shirts out of a
cardboard paper cut-out and then used
diluted oil paints to write on it. However,
the Bayelsa Radio and TV stations agreed
to place our public announcements and
jingles on air free of charge. That leverage
helped us reach out to patients that reside
far from Yenagoa. I hardly slept for two
hours in a day. I would co-ordinate and
plan project deliverables with the volunteer
optometrists, follow up on other corp
members that volunteered to support
logistics and at the same time pursue the
ministries responsible for health matters in
the state. But determination and the
passion to serve our nation kept us going.
When the UK- medical team landed in Port
Harcourt airport on November 14, 2003, I
still had no financial or logistical support
from any government agency. Meanwhile
patients had started contacting medical
officials in Okolobiri General Hospital.
Before I made the last move towards
getting the state government’s attention, I
said a quick prayer in my mind. I asked
God to intervene; at least for the sake of
the poor blind persons that have made it
out of the creeks to receive sight saving
surgeries. This final move was to visit the
head of a Bayelsa youth organization. I
met him and explained my ordeal with the
state government ministries. He apologized
and asked whether I met with the state
deputy governor, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan. I
said no; but that if any help has to come,
it should be quick because the expatriate
doctors were already on their way to
Bayelsa from Port Harcourt International
Airport.
He made some calls and asked me to
quickly get into his vehicle. We drove
down to the Bayelsa State Government
House and we were ushered into the
deputy governor’s office. We logged in our
names and after a few minutes we went
into Dr. Goodluck Jonathan’s office.
I told him about the free eye surgery
programme and my fruitless efforts to get
support from the state ministries. I was
specific, I asked him for three things:
accommodation, security, and
transportation. After listening to me, he
smiled and thanked me for initiating such a
laudable project in Bayelsa State. You may
wait at the reception.” His voice was
gentle, like he was giving me a suggestion,
not an order. I left his office and waited at
the reception room. I was exhausted and
anxious, still praying in my heart for a
miracle to happen.
As God could have it, the Chief of Staff
soon appeared and relayed a message
from Dr. Jonathan. “You will be provided a
coaster bus, five mobile policemen and
accommodation at Intercontinental Hotel,
Yenagoa. In addition, they gave me the
sum of two hundred and fifty thousand
naira to purchase medical equipments for
the project.
I couldn’t believe my ears. To me it was a
modern day miracle; especially after
passing through hell in the last couple of
months.
The free eye surgery programme started
on Tuesday, November 18, 2003, at
Okolobiri General Hospital. The Sight 2020
Direct team performed a total of sixty-
eight surgical operations; removing
cataracts and inserting intraocular lenses.
Over sixty-eight blind indigenes of Bayelsa
State had their eyesight restored at the
end of the programme –The full story was
published on pages 24-25 of the December
13th ,2003 SUN Newspapers .
Twelve years have gone by since my youth
service in Bayelsa State, but I have never
stopped wondering what would have
happened to that free eye surgery
programme if Dr. Goodluck Jonathan
hadn’t intervened. What would have
happened to Papa and the other 67 blind
patients?
I strongly believe that Dr. GoodluckEbele
Jonathan certainly belongs to the group of
individuals who give long-lasting positive
memories. He addressed the major anxiety
of his people at a time it was needed.
Although we met for less than ten minutes,
his prompt action that fateful day had a
huge impact on my life and the lives of
those 68 patients.
From that brief encounter with him, I
learned that persistence pays off.
Problems and challenges may obstruct
your progress, but if you believe in yourself
and your goal, you will eventually succeed.
I remember waiting for hours, particularly
at the ministry of health with nobody
paying attention to me. I remember being
referred to this or that special adviser, and
being forced to use my meager corper
allowance of N11, 500 (less than $100
today) to support the free eye surgery
programme. Despite these initial setbacks,
the breakthrough finally came.
The second thing I learned from my
encounter with Dr. Jonathan is that there
are government officials who genuinely
care about the welfare of Nigerians and
strive to improve lives. Even in the midst
of corruption and apathy, you’ll find God-
fearing leaders who provide immediate
solutions to pressing problems.
The last thing I will like people to take
away is that it’s okay to aim high. I could
have donated textbooks to the students of
Kiama Grammar School and registered the
donation with NYSC as a personal
community development initiative. But I
decided to aim high and impact as many
lives as possible, and thanks to Dr.
Goodluck Jonathan, I succeeded.
These three lessons inspired me to share
my national youth service experience with
Nigerian youths and with those who find it
difficult to cope with government
bureaucracy and the challenges of life.
A lot has been written about the upcoming
February 14 presidential election, and most
of the debate revolves around speculation.
I already know my choice for the office of
the president and it is based on personal
experience, not fantasy or rumors. He
might not be a perfect president; but he is
a man that can listen and act;especially
when approached with solutions to our
national problems. However, my vote will
go to the affable former deputy governor
of Bayelsa State who believed in a youth
corper and acted promptly to improve the
health of the helplesshelples

[b]Fellow compatriots the time has come again to decide our future and the future of our generation even yet unborn.

[/b]In about a week from now, we will be taking a decision to determine how things will play out in our lives in the next four years and beyond.

Have you decided on who you want to trust in handling the Security, Economy, Youth Development, Healthcare, Education, and General improvement of the affairs of Nigeria and its citizens? If you haven’t now is the time to realize something.

1) We trusted the last 6years into the hands of a man who people felt his “luck” might bring Luck to the land because of the way he has always risen to power but unfortunately, one man’s favour from God isn’t enough to bring about solution to the land.

2) A man who travels abroad for the slightest flu while ignoring the healthcare system of the entire nation

3) A man whose 6years in power could boast of ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

4) A man whose campaign was based on personal attacks on his opponent about events that too place OVER 30YEARS AGAIN. Whereas can not boast of achieving anything in the last 6years.

5) A man who claims he doesn’t give a DAMN about not declaring his assets and also claims STEALING IS NOT CORRUPTION

6) A man who gallivants with corrupt past and present individuals while ignoring honest and upright individuals in the land.

7) A man who can defend supposed militants in the October 1st Abuja bomb attack only to come several years later to LIE that the same militants he defended years back attempted to kill him just because the militants are not in support of his government.

8 ) A man whose wife controls almost all critical national issues. Fellow Nigerians ask yourself this question and be honest about it; “can Michael Obama debate of political, security, and governance issue in America? But yet we see nothing wrong in Patience Jonathan peddling into national issues.

9) A man whose ONLY achievement in 6years is boasting of some outdated railway construction that 98% of the Nigerian population do not make use of.

10) A man who under his watch Nigeria can’t boast of a National Carrier yet he has 5 presidential jet to his name and has helped all his associated acquire theirs.

11) A country that sells forms to unemployed Nigerians only to DUPE the same JOBLESS youths as neither the government or the agencies have any job for the youths.

12) A country whose Universities were close for over 6 months and polytechnics for over a year.

13) A country whose medical health workers go on strike all year round leading to millions of people’s sudden death.

14) A country whose citizens die in their thousands on a weekly basis without the president saying or doing absolutely nothing yet the same president sends messages to a country who lost JUST 5 citizens.

15) A president who has emptied the countries foreign reserve and yet cooks up report to hide his elicit acts

The list is endless my fellow Nigerians. This is the time to end all religious and ethnic sentiments and vote in an upright man.
A man who has NO TRACE of any corruption activities and whose associates have all performed averagely well as governors in their various states.

LETS BE WISE. OUR FUTURE IS AT STAKE. WE CAN’T AFFORD TO WASTE THE NEXT FOUR YEARS AGAIN.

VOTE OUT JONATHAN EBELE AZIKIWE BECAUSE WE HAVE TESTED HIM AND HE PROVED HE ISN’T A MAN TO GIVE A SECOND CHANCE TO

So u too is from France. I c how u r too blind to see

Obasanjo refused to sign and you join them in
saying that Goodluck is bad.

N7,500 Which Obasanjo refused to sign and you say
that Goodluck is bad and NYSC allowance from
N7,500 to nearly approved N39,500, yet they say he
is bad.
3. Goodluck dualised federal roads (about
25,000km) which Obasanjo and past Govts
abandoned and you say Goodluck is bad?
4. The rail system is working now, with moderate
budget and through the Sure-P, but Obasanjo sank
billions of dollars without results. Other past leaders
ignored and you say that Goodluck is bad?
5. Goodluck has been conducting free and fair
elections, whereas the ones conducted under
Obasanjo were mostly shameful and a national
disgrace yet you say Goodluck is bad?

education by their own people and you say
Goodluck is bad?
8. Goodluck has been building dams and improving
the country's power, from about 1900MW to about
6,000MW. He successfully privatized the sector

Hello Romancelanders I want to narrate my experience with online dating.

Have always been sceptical about online dating but decided to give it a try after a one year break of dating. I opted out of my previous affair because my ex's family was against him marrying from my tribe so had to end the shiiit, and i gave myself a break since he was acting so indecisive about the whole thing. Now my experience...

I am one of the few nairaland babes that do respond to pm especially if your contribution to this forum has been matured and reasonable irrespective of the section you frequent.

So of all the pms I do have, I sieve and respond to few but so far I'm not impressed with the calibre of men searching online.

After taking risk to exchange my contact and get to meet (in chaperone oh) few of them,about 3, I found out that most men searching online has something terrible about them that makes ladies turn them down in real life that's why they run to online; it is either they are unkempt, razz or not presentable. Some can't even talk like a real man, they are either too weak or timid in real life, no class no nothing.

Forget all those edited pictures used as dp and the likes most of them in real life are dirty!!!

How can a grown up guy don't know how to clean up and look neat. I mean why must your personal hygiene be zero You're meeting someone for the first time and your mouth oozes. I mean, who does that Or is that also attributed to poverty?

I have male cousins that earn less than 50k in a month but they still look neat and presentable.

Is there someone that has experienced the same, be it with male or female?

Or am I alone in this

Op u never ready to marry.

What will you do if you are asked the same question......

I hear say olamide and Don jazzy dem da come. Since I no go use my money pay to see my celebrities perform. I must go.

AbuuUsaamah:
I'm sure you sweep your house with umbrella too!!!

Na only broom dem da use sweep house?

siraj1402:
A reasonable leader don't talk too much but provide solution so as to convince people he is capable. Jonathan telling us why he failed by given many excuses, Buhari telling us how he will make life better in a short sentence.#Getmoresense.

Please maybe you have been following apc campaign. Could you please list 7 ways apc has decided to improve Nigeria situation in their campaign. If campaign is not meant for you to tell us what you will do. Then I don't know any other way.

For those of you who is still holding broom up and down. We r not evil.


Even their general has no choice than to use the umbrella.

BetaThings:
So the debate of 2011 that Jonathan ran away from was not about Nigeria?
So pls compare likes. You may not attend classes and can still write the exam (election) and pass
and in school everyone can pass unlike election where there is only one winner
Was that not the reason Man U always retained Webb?
In 2011 Jonathan did not show up for debate but contested election

Here apc clearly stated why buhari wouldn't partake in the debate just because he was not given expo. So the former debate he attended were not conducted by nta and ait.

mpowa:
Give us a Neutral ground and see if he'll be there or not. why does your clueless one prefer people who'll be asking him A,B,C questions while they are throwing the Ph.D questions at Buhari, your clueless one doesn't need to defend himself on how he's mismanaged the country for 6yrs? Orchestrated debate

Bro neutral or no neutral buhari is afraid an a failure . This are question based on issues occurring in Nigeria. Bro by the way if you wan write exam for school and you notice your mates have been using expo abeg tear your answer sheet. Na f9 go follow m. And na wetin go happen to buhari be Dat. He has been falling and he will still fail.

some one that Can't even stand and defend himself isn't worthy of being the president of over 170 million people. Now shouldn't it be a medium where he should be able to convince Nigerians why we should vote him. This is not a good reason why he shouldn't partake in the debate. Even their so called campaign which was suppose to be issue based, since when the campaign started general buhari hasn't even spoke for more than 8min in each campaign and he hasn't been able to convince people what he will do.


I rather vote the clueless.
