Okija_juju: Similarities between this story and Aluu..

1. The area had been terrorized by criminals for a long time..

2. There was a police station in the neighbourhood that didnt respond on time..

Police police police! How many times did I call you?

Ehyaaaaaa

Rubbish. Vanity upon vanity,all is vanity

This thread is supposed to be in the jokes section

berem: You people will not leave Buhari alone! Was he the one who said that Jonathan's regime would be ungovernable? Did anyone find a Boko haram member in Buhari's house? Did Buhari give Yusuf Mohammed's family 100million naira? Is Buhari the same as Zakari Biu who let a Boko haram member escape from custody? Just because he was named as a mediator then that makes him a Boko Haram member.mtscheeew!

I used to have some respect for you, but reading this your comment makes me think twice.
Why are you scratching just the surface, think outside the box girl!

Na lie! Deny wetin?

ssainty: grab d message and nt d messenger.For me i would have been interested in joining if they were killing those selfish politicians,Hon,sen and d likes

In a Land Governned by Laws, is it the place of some groups of people to wantonly kill selfish politicians? If you have any evidence indicting anybody, report to the law enforcement agencies or you charge the person to court. We Nigerians did not authorize anybody or civilian group to do the killing for us plzzz

Iaz93: Well, it's not too late, He can still join them. COW!!!

Can you imagine the iddiot. He kept saying they are fighting a "genuine cause" but he didn't mention the f-u-c--k-i-n-g "genuine cause" they are fighting

brokoto: in order of priority
1 Education: from basic education upwards
2 Security: we don tire to de die like fowl everywhere in the country
3 Power: i swear if he does this, he'll get a second term on a platter of gold
4 Corruption: this one is a monstrous beast with a million heads. i really dont think he's capable of fully tackling that one sef.

You can open/ start the thread. It's a good idea

Security
Power
Fight corruption

gulfer: Source?

You no dey watch news analysis?

That is what the World is turning into. So much negativity. If we all could just welcome The Prince of Peace into our lives, positive times would surely come along

SSS and Civil Defence kwa? What are they looking for in USA?

The Country Representative for Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Trust.

What are the funds going to be used for?
How will our country benefit from this?

I hereby move a motion that Every thread on the National Good Governance Tour 2012 should remain on the Frontpage, until the tour is over. Those in support of my motion say "AYE"

peckhamboi: you go explain your apology in court.

Don't mind them. Instead of them to look for news that would encourage Nigerians in this trying times, these media people are only looking for defamatory news

Abagworo: I'm not in support of the demolition of strip clubs. That's part of civilization. Religionists might call it what they can but aren't we seeing gay marriages nowadays? Such businesses should be given a specific age restricted area to operate.

Rubbish civilization! Civilization my foot! Who will marry those girls in the long run? Don't u know that such acts could be used to blackmail such girls in the future when they probably may want to venture into marriage, politics or good career. Remember how something like this came up concerning Karen Igho of Big brother Africa

It unceratin what their condition will be but our source indicates that the conditions will include -a demand for the federal security authorities to release the entire members of Boko Haram currently in detention

Hmmm, so that they would go and re-group and re-strategize? No way. They would have to be tried and punished adequately.

to allow them freedom of worship

Who is denying them freedom of worship before? Nigeria is a secular state and everybody should be allowed to worship God the way he/she wants. Were they not the ones that first started this their Islam by force wahala?

compensate them for loses and their dead comrades.

And who compensates those rendered motherless, fatherless, widows, widowers and homeless by boko haram attacks? He who lives in glass house should not throw stones. A word is enough for the wise

Please people, let us try and read the report and stop cursing/ criticizing unnecessarily. How can you know what the government is doing when you don't want to read the Transformation report. It's a bit unfair
Let us do our own part and leave the rest for them. Since they said they have a report fro us, let us just make out time and read what they have for us. Then we can compare the report with glaring facts to know whether the report is true, okay.

Born 2be Rich: The wife and the governor of oyo state are bloody liars...This news is true...kindly visit http://myondostate.com/w3/n500million-loot-from-rumour-to-reality-london-met-police-confirms-arrest-of-acn-governors-wife/..

All this one that the oyo state governor is sueing PM news is propaganda and a way to decieve the public to think dat it is a lie...The news is actually true..PDP and ACN are rubbish (with the exception of Fashola )..May God save us from criminals that we call politicians in this country...Amen...

I have read your link and all I have to say is that "All Na wash!" bad-belle unconfirmed gossip

It could be possible that the money she allegedly had on her may be her daughter's school fees

Africa is largely a traditional society and Africans have succeeded in retaining some of the original cultural values like respect for the sacredness of life. Historically, Africa came under domination of some foreign forces from the West who originally invaded the continent in search of economic prosperity for their home territories.  Political historians have recorded that the various interface that Africa has had with the then invading foreign forces were in two parts namely cultural and political.

It is a historical fact that when the foreign invaders besieged Africa nearly two centuries ago, the political forces from the West were accompanied by their spiritual leaders who brought their foreign religions into Africa.  As a result of the aggressive religious teachings, most traditional Africans embraced these foreign religious belief systems but nevertheless retained some aspects of their original African value system. One of the original African cultural value systems retained by Africans is the African symbolism attached to the arrival of ‘new born’ which seen as the arrival of a new life.

Nigeria being the largest African country worldwide is renowned for this beautiful cultural value attached to new born but because of dearth of standard health facilities caused by political corruption and economic crime perpetrated by the political elite, a lot of children have died during child births even as infant mortality has become the most troubling health challenge that confronts twenty 21st Nigeria.

Sadly, successive political administrations since independence in 1960 have paid only lip service to the critical issue of tackling the unprecedented rate of infant mortality in the country and this reality has made Nigeria a laughing stock in the international community as a nation that is richly endowed with mineral resources such as crude oil and solid minerals but also as the nation with some of the worst cases of high infant mortality.

[b]Nigeria’s current President Goodluck Jonathan, who was a former lecturer in a tertiary institution, has told Nigerians of his passion to stop this dangerous trend. He was recently quoted in the media as saying that his resolve to stop high rate of infant mortality was because of what he witnessed in his biological family where a lot of infant mortality cases were recorded.

He vowed to institute what I may call the ‘Jonathan’s new born medicare revolution’ aimed at delivering quality pre and post-natal medicare to pregnant ladies and their new born.

The United Nations Secretary General Mr. Banki-Moon has provided institutional support to President Jonathan’s lofty health ambition to bring succor and good Medicare to Nigeria’s new born.

The United Nations has subsequently appointed the Nigeria’s President as co-chairman of the United Nations Commission on life saving commodities for women and children along with the prime minister of Norway, Jens Stoltenberg.  This appointment is seen in human rights circle as the necessary tonic for Nigeria to overcome these dangerous threats to life confronting pregnant women and our unborn children.

In a recent article published in major Nigerian newspapers titled “Saving The Lives of Women and Children” both President Jonathan and Prime Minister Stoltenberg made profound commitment to see to the reduction of the high rate of infant mortality.  These great men, one from Nigeria (Africa) and the other from Norway (Europe) have through this well written newspaper article provided germane reason why infant mortality has remained a dominant health challenge even in this 21st that has seen several health related innovations and inventions by scientists.                    

They jointly argued thus; “The overarching health system and financial impediments for governments and end-users to access life-saving commodities is made worse by the lack of awareness of how, why and when to use them, preventing women and children from accessing and using appropriate commodities”.

One clear fact is that President Jonathan needs to work like a “lion” with the needed creative zeal to be able to minimize the unprecedented high rate of infant mortality in Nigeria.

Statistically, Nigeria is ranked as one place in the world whereby infants and new borns are endangered species requiring special, urgent, comprehensive, effective, transparent and result-based measures to overcome rapidly to save our new born from pre-mature deaths.  

From pulitzercenter.org we learnt that the health statistics published by all respected and global health authorities in the world have returned unpleasant report on the high rate of infant mortality in Nigeria.  From the scientific facts above, President Jonathan should note that his “pro-new born health revolution” will require profound political will and the necessary resources to achieve.[/b]

All this gossip reports self, did the news reporters hear from the so-called hired pilot? As long as his name was not mentioned in this news, I don't believe it. This might just be a cooked-up gossip just to blame the governor

gregg2: Rubbish! Rubbish!! Rubbish!!!
Jonathan may not even be aware of what's going on there.

I dey tell you. As if Jonathan left his office and work in Abuja to dabble into oil and land dispute in Rivers-Bayelsa States. Just because GEJ is from Bayelsa State, that's why they are dragging his name into this.
Na wa for the Media sef

RIP Brother Patty Obasi. Your musical works shall continue to win souls for Christ

What we Nigerians need is solutions and not condemnations. CAN should sit down and plan and collaborate with Government on how to stop these killing of Christians.

Rastamann: sandy, sandy sandy thanks God that USA have a good emergency measures, if it Niaja, na everyone go die inside water.

It seems you have not heard of National Emergency Management Authorit (NEMA) in Nigeria. And it seems you have not been following their activities in recent times

Sisi_Kill: Errr....people don't blame the govt for natural disasters, they blame the govt for its response or rather its lack there of and preparedness ...to Natural Disasters.

Get it straight.

Most of the time, the government receives the warnings of impending natural disasters through NIMET. The government warns people before-hand yet many people just in the typically Nigerian mentality would still stay put and say "Nnaa mehn, let us wait and see, afterall, seeing is believing". When the flood/ natural disaster now catches up with them, people on the social media start shouting government-government.
Na so e dey be.

The President's expectations are commendable. But It's not just about expectation, it's about timely preparations. Nigeria can venture into some medal-yielding sports such as cycling, swimming and gymnastics, we have people with such talents.
Sports administrators should spot them out, and groom them. All this god-fatherism in sports /Olympics selection (whereby people insist that their candidates/ relations must go for olympics) should stop

noblezone: I did not pay! It was part of our agreement, I made it clear that I won't pay for what i did not consume.

Believe me, if every body in a particular PHCN district disconnects, PHCN will come for negotiation. They derive the power to misbehave because we beg them not to disconnect us. Many users dont even want to pay for what they use.

It is Nigerians who have destroyed Nigeria.

That is Nigerians for you, they too like free things, no one wants to pay for services rendered.
However they forgot that "awoof dey run belle".
This is the same mind-set that the OP is having, asking peole to stop paying PHCN bills. Why don't you also ask them to also stop using power supply from PHCN? Mcheww

johnstar: looks like a baboon 2 me, or mayb buffalo , na igbo man self, choi, c ow im head big

What makes you think he is an Igbo man? Or do you really have any problems with Igbo people?
Can't you see from his name that he is from Edo State? and it's Edo people that are mostly lured into all these useless overseas trip, especially to Italy.

ihebrooke: Is it only bad news and shame that can be identified with Nigeria?
Pathetic!

Not at all. It's just that bad news spread faster than good news. Have you not heard of Nigerians achieving great feats in the educational sector overseas? The news are here on Nairaland e.g. The Nigerian professor in UK, the Nigerian with a first class in pharmacy in a UK university, and so many others which i'm not able to specifically cite here and now
