I believe the president has every right to contest the next election. I also applaud the endorsement by his people of south-south which is what is normal but I frown at the domestication of the president as ND president. I must say that GEJ himself did not demonstrate dis bigot mien but his overzealous kinsmen and political prostitutes are gradually encroaching the president support base. What is needed for GEJ is support North and South not this hate dat is custom of the ND leaders esp Edwin Clark. That is talking politics but now to the reality on ground, GEJ's scorecard is a menu of tasteless governance,salty policies,burnt agenda and horrid direction - if GEJ must be endorsed by the people at least let us do it wit full stomach and in broad day light of PHCN

masterpiecer: has there ever been anytime that the northerners support any south-south candidate?, they believe they own Nigeria, but they will be proven wrong again.

advise GEJ not to go to d north to campaign or solicit vote come 2015 and wait till May 29 for a more reasonable president from d North or Igbo. U re just unlucky to ve a fish brain

CHESSBOARD: Yoruba go hide abeg, which one is ur own, ur baba took 8 yrs and almost sleep with his daughter in-law into 3rd term

if u guys continue with dis trade of abusing other entities u will have to vote him in as a senator come 2015 or make him a Niger Delta leader.

ifihearam: Mr president also said in the last media chat that time will tell but it seems we want him back even if he doesn't wanna contest....peoples wish must prevail and its a YES

people of Niger Delta's wish abi?...can d fraction of south-south make GEJ president? Edwin Clark and his co travellers are just narrowing the president chance of re-election with bigotry utterances. Now we ve a president dat is not Nigerian but ND...u guys come here abuse the yorubas, abuse the North and u want re-election in 2015...ur only ally being igbos who demselves want a slot at d top...seriously do we have a prof of Maths frm ND? I guess u guts nid to be taught d arithmetic of politics.

Dana Airline announced yesterday that it will soon resume flight operations following the lifting of suspension of the airline operations by the Federal Government  Wednesday.

In a statement, the management of the airline thanked the Federal Government for lifting the suspension and announced that it will soon resume flight operations in all its routes.

It will be recalled that following the tragic crash of the airline plane on Sunday, June 3, at Iju-Ishaga, Lagos, which killed more than 153 people, including those on board the plane and the residents of the site it crashed, the airline flight operations were suspended by the Federal Government.

In what looked like fore closing investigation into the crash, the airline said the Federal Government was satisfied with the air-worthiness of the airline.

The airline said ‘’The management and the over 558 staff of Dana Air wish to express our deepest appreciation to the Federal Government over the lifting of the suspension of the airline’s operations with effect from Wednesday, September 5, 2012, following government’s satisfaction with the air-worthiness of the airline after a rigorous technical, operational and financial audit.’’

The airline also thanked ‘’all Nigerians and our esteemed guests for your prayers since the tragic accident of Sunday, June 3, 2012. Our thoughts and prayers will always be with the families that lost loved ones.’’

The airline, however, reiterated its committed to assisting the families of victims of the crash and also fulfilling its obligations to them fully, as stipulated by the law.

It has promised to continue to adhere to safety procedures in their flight operations.’’The provision of safe, reliable world-class air transport services has always been our focus at Dana Air and we will continue to adhere strictly to safety procedures as required by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Act and all other relevant local and international regulations, as we resume flight operations shortly.’’

The public should get ready for compliance

The Lagos State Police Command has declared its readiness to begin full enforcement of the new Lagos Traffic Law and warning that in the process, nobody would be spared.

The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Abubakar Umar Manko, who gave the indication after the State Security Council meeting on Wednesday, said the delay in enforcement was to allow for public enlightenment and all other requirements to be put in place to ensure easy compliance by members of the public.

Fielding questions from newsmen after the meeting, the Police boss explained, “Since the Governor signed it, it has become law. The fact that it has not been massively enforced does not mean that it is not in existence. So we have just finished a meeting. Everybody now knows there is a new law and that law is going to be fully enforced.”

According to the Commissioner, “Government has done its part, public enlightenment has been made, road repairs are going on and there are traffic signs everywhere, therefore, no citizen has the right to say that he does not know. The Police are going to start the enforcement in full and nobody is going to be spared.”

Promising that members of his Command would not disobey the law, Manko declared, “We are going to start full enforcement and we expect compliance to this law from everybody. The contents have been made public, so excuse of ignorance of the law is no more there.”

On “MBER” months, the Commissioner, who described them as no different from other months of the year, said although there may be some challenges the Police were fully prepared and would come out en masse to ensure that public peace was not disturbed.

Also speaking on behalf of the Flag Officer, Western Naval Command and Air Officer, Logistics Command, Commander, 9 Brigade, Ikeja, Cantonment, Brigadier General Pat Akem, said the Armed Forces would sensitize and inform their members to know that they are also subject to the law and that compliance is expected from them.

According to him, their members would be made to understand that failure to comply to the law would be viewed very seriously as they are also operating under a democratic dispensation, adding, “We will inform our soldiers, our ratings and our air men that they are expected to obey the law and that violation of the law would be viewed very seriously.

ilugunboy: Of course that is the type of m0ronic response that you will feel comfortable and at home with.

u dey mind the guy?

PrettyRita: The news is from Naijapundit not Op plsssss. And Buhari's CPC is the one calling the integrity of TINUBU to question not Nlanders. Hmmmmmmm

where in d post dis u get dat?

Omojuo: Buhari is only moving with caution. He knows that Yoruba man can never be trusted. This trust issue is it generic?

wuld ve asked u to go ask ur father but so bad he was killd fighting ur neighbour who biologically is ur true father...bastrd

PointB: Why didn't you ask for the Northern governors or are they not part of the country. I just gave a sample popular governorsm What is the problem? Oga you can open a thread about any governor you want. Ameachi, Akpabio, Uduaghan, na you sabi. Just don't derail my thread. It's either you have answer or not, stop querying my motive or speculate on my zone. Such hold no answer to my query.

How wealthy is Tinubu, and how did he become that wealthy. Certainly, anyone who can create a Nairaland account by himself should at the every least understand simple question, No?

why can't I query ur motive? If u can open a thread solely to scrutinize d source of another man's wealth y can't I query ur motive especially wen its skewed

PointB: Na wa oo. Why don't you simply admit you have no answer to my question and walk away from this thread? Why do u have to impungn ulterior motive to my thread? What is ulterior motive? Or are you implying that Tinubu has something to hide, and that this thread will ultimately unearth the hidden? Na wa oo.

Please enlighten me sir!

wat u nid is not an answer, what u nid is somone who can support ur folly and ur unachieveable task of slandering Asiwaju...if u want to be enlighten, use any of the G - ask God, ask Google or Gerrout

PointB: The only sensible comment you have made since I open this thread. All hope is indeed not lost! I was wondering if you don't want to know the truth!

So let's continue digging Tinubu's wealth. Maybe tommorow Chime, Fashola, Mimiko, Rochas (alphabetically sorted) may follow.

ur tribe is noted from d above quote u re frm ND - where is d names or name of ur governor(s)?

PointB: Why not on FP? This genuine attempt to find out source of Tinubu's wealth certainly should be of concern to all and sundry. Seun, being a fair minded individual will certainly agree with me.

Besides, if you think opinions expressed here are libels and falsehoods, why not provide the correct information?

Mod, pls be the judge.

If u like take it to cover page in d stead of front page...a lie is a lie, no matter hw many times u quote it

usmanyaro17: You dey vex because him don go American with stolen money and left you behind ,you are busy supporting him without any benefit,mind u my contribution is my simple opinion.

usman u did a wonderful job on d cow now go f88k a donkey and come bk here with ur simple opinion...dangba

PointB: Hmmmn, here is another kind fellow who believe like many Nigerians, that Tinubu made tonnes of cash when he was a governor in Lagos state. Certainly, governors don't earned in billions, or did they then?

why won't he be a kind fellow wen ur ulterior motive is his stand. No fact but fart of horrid assumptions...me thought u sincerely want to knw hw wealthy Asiwaju is ni neva knew its laptop Men at work...oluwa ni'shola, if u ve any p with d man's wealth am sure there is God where u reside - ask him cos he giveth wealth

Idokojimmy: These are Tinubus foot soldiers/errand boys. They loot their various state tresury and pay same to Asiwathief! When did Govs become body guards o! Attack govs

in d militant training u attended, bodyguard stays at the back abi?

usmanyaro17: TINUBU has amass public money,so he is very wealthy with I'll gotten money he made as a governor in rich Lagos state and from the dues he is receiving from his boys in the south west...

aboki, if dem dey fight for d next compd e concern u? How far is Kano from Lagos - ur comment is welcome on a post like dat not dis. Go f88k a Cow

PointB: If I have the details why open the thread? Please for the avoidance of doubt, this thread is open so that we can get to the bottom of the matter. Pls if you have the info provided it and make my day. And I am unable due to geographical factor to get the info from whatever bureau. Can you help?

are u in saturn? Its obvious thr is nothing concrete, no fact, no figures just assumptions and sheer envy...is dat detailed enuf? If not ask Jona why he allows a corrupt man bully him.

apala911: Stupendously wealthy with public funds...........

and Mr holy, wat abt ur father o? Stupendously poor with public scorn

[quote author=tpia@]Op why not check the sources of wealth of those in your state instead of looking so far from home.[/quote]u dey mind d bastard dat tends to build another man's haus wen his father's own is on fire - leave us with our Asiwaju we are not complaining. I dare u to name a politician as popular and influential frm ur region.

PointB: Darn, you are very smart to know my motive. Kindly clap for yourself.

Let assume I am not qualified to get that information fron the bureau, why don't u kill this thread here and now with that information. That would be easier than inpugning on my motivation, again no?

and why in hell's name are u not qualified? If u can start dis topic with sincereity of purpose u shld be able to go get d info nided unless u ve been thr and u got wat u neva expected

redsun: America is playing a shady game for recognising tinubu as a political bigwig in nigeria.I am very sure Obama does have a hint of this,if not i will lose my respect for him.

What they are saying to nigerians is that it is cool to be a political thief and traitor like tinubu.But like all true nigerians know,the only people that can solve nigerian syndomes are nigerians themselves,not some imperialists.

The bolded words makes me conclude that you should be made to moderate the joke section...like say Obama send u you can use this your post to start a new topic in the Jokes section.

redsun: Just name dem,i know they are all thieves,down to the local government clerks,i am not excusing any of them.I just name the ones that are actively obvious and the ones on serious rampage because they decieve the people enmass.Even the socalled educated nigerians are chidlishly foo-led by them,ie,tinubu.

distraction that's what u are

afam4eva: You're right. But don't you think the same thing applies to the numerous PDP politicians that you've been calling for their heads?

Afam4eva one thing i want you to understand is that Asiwaju is the leader of the opposition in a country like ours where our democracy is not policy driven but stimulated by hate and ferocious instrument of besmirch. don't you think if Asiwaju is found wanting the ruling party would have used it against him long ago but they have nothing to prove that he is corrupt that's why the want to demonized him. If table turns just imagine how many of the PDP thieves under the immunity umbrella of being a member of the ruling party will be convicted.

afam4eva: Shouldn't the same thing apply to PDP politicians thaat ya'll see as corrupt? What is good for the goose is good for the gander. Stop being hypocritical.

hypocritical indeed. But wait does these names have anything in common - Farouk,Ibori, Gbenga Daniel, Dimeji Bankole,Alamesia,Joshua Dariye, Fayose,Etteh, Saminu Turaki,Rashidi Ladoja,Babalola Borisade,Nyeson Wike,Lucky Igbinedion and co

ANSWER

PDP and CORRUPTION

Billyonaire: INEC guidelines clearly states that all Political parties should conduct primaries that will produce their flag bearer. It is that same INEC guideline that I want ACN to obey and not allow a drug baron that has siphoned the welfare of all Lagosians into his personal enterprise run lagos as an ugly mafiosa. Obey INEC and let the best candidate of ACN contest against other parties and let the best man win. I want a piece of the pie.

can you just allow Jega to justify the salary he is been paid? why do his job for him .

afam4eva: Is there no Christian that Tinubu can make a governor? Why always a Muslim. Not that there's anything wrong with it but it's making me thing that there's a grand plan to exclude Christians from Lagos politics.

muslims are Nigerians so also is Micheal Otedola a Christian. did Fashola a muslim construct a separate road or law that favors Muslims to detriment of Christians? abeg ye agent of Anarchy what we need in SW is developed not bigotry. Eko oni baje o

afam4eva: I really don't care about his achievements. I'm talking about corruption here and nothing else.

I knw u don't care about his achievements but corruption abi? So wat in ur narrow mind did u expect me to say; he is corrupt but was neva convicted abi? Or dat he is not corrupt but his person slurred by the jealous and envious never do wells dat help Naija captive for 14 years...let him who is without sin cast the first stone...so Afam pick a ghastly pebble cos u might not have d opportunity to cast d stone again...if u re with ur stone be the first.

afam4eva: You're right. Tinubu has achieved a lot. No Igbo man has been able to achieve such feat unfortunately. But that doesn't change the fact that he's a crook just like other politicians.

no one says Tinubu is a saint or utterly upright but his blots are negligible when compared to the rest.

nku5: ^^ who was he telling to shut up in that picture I wonder

Billyonaire, Beaf (infact where is that dude sef?), red sun, and the rest ass licking crew

redsun: Those that are with thieving nigerian politicians like tinubu,ibb,anenih,atiku,obj,igbinedion,bankole,david mark,kalu and co,tribes notwithstanding,are the enemies of true nigerians and the enemies of universall progess.And those people are here on this forum,obvioulsly enemies of rational nigerians here on this forum.

Is us against them.The good ones against the bad ones.Whose side ar you on?

Did you say tribes notwithstanding and you forget to put your kinsmen (cos from the list its obvious u re Niger Deltan) like Ibori, Alam and co that was convicted by a recognized court of law. i want to believe it skips ur mind but did it also skip ur mind that Tinubu - iberu 1 of Nigeria was never convicted? its all fictitious attempt to besmirch the person of Asiwaju - it will make a good work of fiction but in the real legal world Tinubu - Iberu 1 of Nigeria is a clean man.
