PRESIDENTIAL MEDIA CHAT

QUESTION : (by Mr Ibanga of Premium Times):MR president, the DSS under your watch has consistently disobeyed court orders. Dansuki has had 3 court orders asking for his release. And Nnamdi Kanu. And many other cases. Court orders which your DSS has not obeyed

ANSWER : (by Buhari on national TV) :How can they be released? Do you know that Kanu has passports of 2 different countries? Do you know the billions that Dansuki stole? And you are talking of court order for release. I hope the judges are watching this!

ME :Buhari is now the accuser and the judge. He has already convicted his victims. He openly approves the disobedience of court orders, and dares the court openly. And who told him that it is a crime to have the citizenship (passport) of two countries?

chuose:
Many of us agree with what he said.

The problem lies in Islam.

Jesus teaches to love ur enemy.

Mat 5:44
But I say unto you, Love your enemies

Mohammed teaches to blow everybody up.

joseph1832:
I'm sure if you do a proper research about whether Muslims should be ban in the U.S or not, you'll find that most of the people commenting just hold a minute opinion.

People shouldn't be held responsible for the actions of others. However, they should be held accountable for not outrightly condemning their brothers when they go on killing spree, just to spread their narrow
minded views...

Olalekan Adetayo: Before vice president Osinbajo, the workaholic, breaks down

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is no doubt hard working. He looks very energetic. Even his stature speaks volume of him. He carries that frame swiftly any time he is trekking from his end of the Villa to the President’s office and he does that very often. He shares that stature with the likes of Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State, Governor Nasir El-Rufai of


Kaduna State and probably Governor Ben Ayade of Cross River State. Without sounding immodest, I also belong to their association. El-Rufai has whispered to me and some other colleagues belonging to that group that the Vice President is our patron. I won’t disclose the name of the association, but by our stature, you shall know us.

I am not a medical doctor but having watched activities in the Villa closely since he and President Muhammadu Buhari moved into the seat of power, I will advise that Osinbajo should slow down. His activities so far have not left anybody in doubt that he is a workaholic. He resumes very early in the morning and remains in his office till late in the night almost daily.

Osinbajo has been going round the states of the federation from the North to the South on behalf of his boss. There are times he makes two or three states in a day! He has also made many foreign trips on behalf of the President. His attitude to work has become a subject of discussions, though in hushed tones, among members of his staff, most of who believe that they are being overstretched.

For instance, a day to the opening of the presidential retreat organised for ministers last month, I was reliably informed that the Senior Advocate of Nigeria was in his office till about 2am preparing the paper he presented at the event. This notwithstanding, Osinbajo arrived the venue with the President at exactly 9am. I wonder whether he slept at all.

As if that is not enough, Osinbajo sat through the programme while Buhari left shortly after declaring the event open. The Vice President returned to his office after the event and started treating files that he could not treat while at the venue. By 9am the following day, he was already in the old Banquet Hall venue to preside over the activities of the second day.

Penultimate Wednesday, he was in Ikenne, Ogun State where he hosted the President and other well-meaning Nigerians at the burial of the matriarch of the Awolowo family, Chief HID Awolowo. He played a leading role in the burial because his wife, Dolapo, is a grand-daughter of the deceased

Surprisingly however, Osinbajo was again on hand later in the day when Buhari hosted Senators to a presidential dinner at the new Banquet Hall. He had managed to freshen up and change his clothe before attending the event. Many of his close aides were looking very tired. “The work must be done” was the reply of one of them when I told him that I did not expect that Osinbajo would attend the event.

On Tuesday, he started his activities by taking part in the 2015 National Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Summit held inside the Villa. Shortly after that, he played host to a delegation of Global Good Fund co-founded by Bill Gates in his conference room. While those guests were still finding their way out after the meeting, Osinbajo’s convoy was already leaving the Villa. He left for Yenagoa, Bayelsa State where he represented Buhari at the grand finale of the campaign of the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate, Timipreye Sylvia. Another task that the Vice President has been carrying out dutifully is that he has always been on hand at the airport to receive his boss whenever he is returning from any foreign trip.

One other thing that has been glaring since he took over is that the Vice President, who is a pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, has also ensured that state duties do not affect his spiritual life. He still attends the monthly vigil that holds in the church’s camp located on the popular Lagos-Ibadan Expressway every first Friday of the month. His workers even told me that he still attends evening services such as Bible Study (Digging Deep as it is called in RCCG) and Prayer Meetings in one of the parishes in Abuja and still return to his office late in the night to continue work.

Don’t get me wrong. I am not in any way suggesting that Osinbajo should abandon state duties. Far from it. I am also not suggesting that he should jettison his God. I am only advising that the Vice President must avoid breaking down. I know that as a religious person, if he is reading this, he may be uttering words such as “I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me” or “I shall not die but live, to declare the glory of God in the land of the living.” Let me make it clear that I am not wishing him any evil before he will scream “Back to sender!”

There are claims that many top government officials take some forms of performance-induced drugs or drinks to keep them going when work becomes tough. Because of his religious background however, I don’t see Osinbajo indulging in such. Rather, I see him relying on “the grace of God.” He should therefore not stretch the grace beyond limit. Nigeria cannot afford any sick leader for now, judging from our recent past. My candid advice please.

This is what selfless leadership is all about. We need people who are up to the challenge, super humans if I must say(just kidding)

But the truth is we need leaders who will sacrifice their sleep, health and finances (if need be) just so our country can be better for us and our kids. at the end of the day it's what 'selfless leadership' is all about.

How can I sleep if Nigerians are awake (because of insecurity)
How can I be rich if Nigerians are poor
How can I be healthy if Nigerians are sick
How can I be happy if Nigerians are sad
How can live when Nigerians die in numbers
-Al-Hassan (future Nigerian president)

Enough of these infantile threats!! While the burning of the mosque is condemable these threats are becomming annoying!! Churches have been burnt and southerners killed in the north before and heavens did not fall.

The east is presently charged up and any killing of igbos anywhere in the north will be met with vicious reprisals and will lead to unctrollable violence across the entire northern and eastern region.!!! No one has a monopoly of violence!! It is only a tree that won't fight back if it is been cut down.

SirJeffry:
We know that already Your Lordship.

Though they still live in denial simply because they aren't the victims yet but the poor Northerners, God is already closing in on them.

Very soon, the hunter will be the hunted. From Buhari to IBB to Adamu Ciroma to Senator Ndume, all will hear from God soon.

Bigprozzie:
Good one. Yorubas are highly respected

When will the world take Igbos seriously?

baysol:


Not in all cases some we clever than others from the tapeworm tribe will be looking for ways to sell drugs to these kids. Only to come here and be beating their chest that they are rich and hard working tribe that no Nigerian can leave without them. My own be say their time will soon be up as their cup will soon be full.

catlova:
Thanks to this yoruba man from Biafra

kendrick9:
None of my concern tbh.... Buhari has been an abject failure so far.. everything stagnant,no progress.... Same old nigeria i guess....

Salam brother
Ameen to your dua.I have performed istikhara few times. And it's helping me to guide my decision making. I always have another problem that the more responble men i have met are christains
I really do not want to marry a christian. The last time I travelled home my mum was suggesting when next I visit maybe I should maybe do an introduction with
with a christian guy i once introduced. Although I have stopped communicating with him.
I don't like meeting people online because it's quite risky but I will try the website.

Over the years, Nigeria has undergone several reforms in making it a better country, but it seems to get worse by the day. The notion of a new Nigeria is not about breaking it down like the biblical temple, but a revived, refreshed, reinvigorated, reorganized, refined, and reordered Nigeria. A new Nigeria is not an inexperienced or unaccustomed country but a reliable, self-sufficient and developed country -- a Nigeria we can all be proud of. Every citizen of Nigeria, men and women, the young and old hold the key to a successful redevelopment as it is said, 'every part of a tree contributes to its existence'. This essay seeks to focus on the role of Nigeria students (being educated at one citadel of learning or the other) in the creation of a new and better Nigeria.

The first step in creating a new Nigeria is creating a revived spirit in students -- an optimistic mind that believes Nigeria can actually get better. Like the popular saw, 'Rome was not built in a day', The process of recreation is definitely not a day's job and every student needs to understand this fact. The revival process won't come as a miracle, but one of cutting, recutting and sowing a cloth to bring forth a beautiful product. They need to renew their faith in Nigeria, that the dilapidated can be rebuilt, the wastelands can still be productive, that water can come out of the barren land and a good thing can actually come from Nazareth.

Nigerian students need to understand the essence of self-empowerment and sufficiency. Of the crisis facing Nigeria today, unemployment stands as a major thorn in the flesh as thousands of school graduates are out searching for jobs. It is no longer news, that the available jobs are not enough and is therefore a battle among the fittest. To solve this situation, it is important that students strive for excellence to become employable and rather than rely on getting a job after school, they should take initiatives and work on building successful businesses which will in turn create jobs for others. Innovativeness together with vision is very essential, and requires that they think out of the box, planning extensively ahead, rather than live only for the present.

A new Nigeria means a safer Nigeria, a country where people can live in freedom and absolute peace of mind. To build that nation, students must shun all acts of cultism, thuggery, hooliganism and other forms of unruly and violent behaviours. Nigerian students must adopt a dialogical rather than diabolical approach when it comes to solving problems. It is said 'violence beget violence', which is why the destruction of lives and properties during protest will do more harm than good in developing a safe and habitable country and must be shunned at all cost. If Nigeria is ever going to get better, students must live as responsible and law-abiding citizens. By joining voluntary organizations and aiding in community service and development, helping to enforce law, order and cleanliness, Nigeria is on its way to becoming a greater nation.

Building a corrupt-free country, one with integrity is a responsibility of every students. A bad reputation corruption has been for our dear country, a result of desperate individuals who want to make money and wealth through all nooks, crannies and selfish interests. Fraud, bribery, and all forms of examination malpractices must be avoided at all cost and understand that good success and wealth never come easy but a result of hard work, preparation, patience, perseverance, and prayer. It may be tough to succeed, but it is definitely not impossible as Nigeria is blessed with enough resources to aid in the conquest.

The new Nigeria of our dreams is one without corruption,
A country where the young and old can live in peace with other,
A country where the children of the poor will no longer live on the food crumbles of the rich,
A country where its citizens strive for excellence in all,
A country where poverty and unemployment will be of the past,
A country where all the tribes and states will support each other in harmony,
A country where the leaders have the love of the people at heart,
That is the the Nigeria of our dreams.
