Typical of some religion and their leaders. One was said to have walked 800 feet.

What happened to posters above? Did they rapture?

Anyway, for maintenance and construction of swimming pools, water fountains, water falls and beautification of recreational parks. We cover the entire country.

Who have you worked for

Do people name their children Buhari? The child will definitely turn out ...

Please help me complete the sentence.

For the sake of your future children the best option is to relocate.

I have since relocated. My children are awaiting their citizenship swearing in ceremony. I am the only one still having Nigerian hope. Hoping that my country will one day rise up from the ashes. But everyday you realise that Nigeria was never meant to be a nation. Insecurity, live is just a bullet or a kidnapper away. No electricity, fraudulentl elections, poverty is celebrated, politicians are wrecking the country and sending their children abroad for studies, etc. Nigeria is just a hopeless place at least for now. This APC is the worst thing to befall this country.

Do you pay tax? My last PAYE while working in Nigeria was averaging N1.25m a momth not including VAT on purchase. Do you know that even at that to get a TTC from LASG was hellish. Alpha Beta gives you a different number. That is a story for another day.
What other contributions do you want me to make for my country? A country that the politicians have turned the reasoning of its youthful population to belie5that poverty and suffering is their birth right.

ChiefkeefGB4:
Solution is to relocate from the country. The country will never make any progress as lon as APC,PDP or APGA fantastically corrupt politicians rule the country.

Good suggestion. I do not know about other countries. But in Canada, a child is psid Child Care Benefit until he or she is 18. Again education up to high school completely free with free school bus. As a responsible parent you have the option to pay this CCB money in the child's RESP. That is funding targetted towards the child university education. The beautiful thing is that any amount you pay into the RESP, Canadian government contributes 25% to it. So for example if you pay $1000 into the RESP, government adds $250 making the fund $1250.
Then again university students get grants that sometimes covers their fees and are given students loans. My country is only good for corrupt politicians.
The country needs restructuring and a total overhaul. I am just restraint in not calling it revolution. I am from Delta State Oil is drilled from my state to fund FG, yet we do not get anything in return. No good roads, no infrastructure, not even opportunity for good education. Nigeria is a disgrace to mankind. Please if you can take your children out of the poo called Nigeria.

As a Southerner, you are most likely not to benefit anything from the FG. Except for NYSC allowance, FG contributed NOTHING to my life. However, the story is different for the average Northerners. 80% of them live off the FG. They work in Federal ministries and parastatals while Southerners struggle for private sector jobs or self employment. Except you decide to join the armed forces or Police, Southerners are greatly disadvantaged by the Federal Character principle.

Do you know that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is no different from the Nigerian pastors? Every year, the Saudis make estimated $16 Billion from hajj operations. Funny enough those who contribute this humungous amount for Saudi Arabia are from the world poorest countries

Saudi is making huge profit from the
Estimates put Saudi income from the hajj at around US$16 billion a year.

If Atiku fails at the PEPT , the 2023 election will be between Atiku and Tinubu. One of them must be permanently retired. My presumption is that Tinubu will be severely dealt with as Atiku will stick with Obi to receive block votes from SE/SS zones. The NC or MB already knows those angling for RUGA and are waiting for them come 2023.

the useless fat pig Ambode should bring his learning stool beside Godwin obaseki and learn how a governor with executive power and immunity supposed to act

Abeg make una leave Ambode hand. The guy was handicapped. His error was leaving the Assembly unruffled while he was in good terms with Jagaban. If Ambode had 1/3 of the assembly on his payroll, things would have been different. I am sure he is regretting it now. Just $50000 each would have swayed 10 legislators to start a fight against the Speaker.in the first or second year in office. That way, he will take control of the house. But ... he is not a politician.

bluecircle470:
Nigerian constitution is even online or you go to a bookshop and you will find one. I bought mine from a bookshop

Oga you do not have one or have never read it otherwise you would not be arguing. If you do have one, help yourself by reading sections 92 and 105.

I have helped you by extracting them here:

105 (3) Subject to the provisions of this Constitution, the person elected as the Governor of a State shall have power to issue a proclamation for the holding of the first session of the House of Assembly of the State concerned immediately after his being sworn in, or for its dissolution as provided in this section.

92. (1) There shall be a Speaker and a Deputy Speaker of a House of Assembly who shall be elected by the members of the House from among themselves.

There is NOWHERE the constitution arrogate the office of Speaker and/or Deputy to majority party. QED!!!

So long for blind argument. I got work to do. Politicians do not feed me nor am I on some peanut payroll. .

bluecircle470:
The constitution does not support minority party to lead any house of assembly

Oga, please help me with the constitutional provision.

To all those quoting me, I am very sure none of you have read the constitution. Please take time to educate yourselves on the constitutional provisions. Unfortunately as it is always with some APC supporters, it is to abuse and argue blindly.
Section 105 is clear. A governor is required to issue A PROCLAMATION for the state Assembly. Ask yourself why Buhari himself did not issue another Proclamation after Saraki took over in 2015.
Again Bauchi speaker is APC not PDP as some of you are ranting. APC has 22 elected members . Of the 22, 5 decided to join PDP 8 to become 13 reducing APC gang to 17. Now tell me where PDP is a problem here.
The constitution does not recognize parties in the assembly. It recognizes elected members, so anyone is qualified to vie for Speakership.
Please, before you quote me, go and read the constitution. Do not be a first to commenter.

The constitution does not support duplicate assembly proclamation. If they so desire, the courts are there to adjudicate. Just like Edo State if the legislators do not like the leadership that came from the first and only recognized proclamation, they have to muster the required 2/3rd membership to remove him. Going to Abuja is senseless and smarks of stupidity. Again with 13 members already with the house leadership, all the government need to do is to lobby the 4 members from the other party to have full control. APC should go and DIE!

Wait ooo! What is really wrong with this country
Always good on the wrong side of the wrong reasons.

This case will die a natural death... you know why? The thieves are still in power. Ambode like Fashola were just vessels unto dishonour.
You forgot that two bullion vans moved cash on the heels of 2019 elections. EFCC is just chasing shadows except Buhari want to stop Tinubu with this case. Ambode does not have the liver to steal anything near N50m talk more of N9.6b.

RockHard:
If I am Obaseki, I will start shopping for another party to run for re-election under because it ain't gonna be easy for him to get APC ticket at this rate.

Obaseki is going to PDP and he will win land slide in Edo South and Esan Land. The Edo North may give him less votes but he is coasting home to victory with 75% success. No inconclusiveness can save APC in Edo State. The South South plus Ondo State are full blown PDP states by 2020.

oz4real83:
Politically, what Gov Obaseki is doing is wrong but if u are not a politician and have no politically interests, his actions are very correct. From political perspective, he was sponsored by a party, campaigned for by a party, mobilised for by a party and nominated by a party. Everywhere in the World, whether Europe or America, when a person is nominated and sponsored by a party for any position, that person MUST PATRONISE the party in one way or the other although this is not openly done the way it is in Nigeria. If he was an independent candidate, his actions would have been acceptable and perfect. But as a party man, he is totally wrong. The worst he can do is to decamp to other party but the same thing will still happen.

It was cool when Amaechi did same in Rivers and Oshomole bit the fingers that enthroned him in Edo State. Look a party is just a vehicle to get to a political office in Nigeria. To get their ticket, you paid fees (expression of interest, nomination, settlement of party chiefs, etc). Sometimes running into millions. After that you are solely responsible to the citizens thst voted for you. Imagine applying for a job through a HR agency. On assumption of office, the MD of the agency now begins to give you directives. Which would you obey, yoir employer or your sgency?

All revolutionists should be prepared as Sowore is likely to celebrate new year in DSS custody. Unfortunately, if anyone has been taken along with him, Buhari will keep them in detention until sometime around March 2020. This is going by Buhari's antecedents both as a military junta and as president. Check it Nnandi Kanu, Sambo Dasuki, Deji Adeyanju, El zakzaki. Under Abacha (Buhari's dictatorial ally), same things happened.
The mistake was voting Buhari in 2015. What is done cannot be undone now, so all Revolutionists should be prrpared to wail very loudly so Buhari can hear as the Shites did. As for those thinking to restart the RevolutionNow on October 1, I wish them luck! But just to advice that "a charging chariot knows no rank or status"

yarimo:
Court should grant DSS Request immediately .

... make 180 days. They should replace El zazaki with Sowore. Let the revolutionists go and ... ( Oshomole)

if this happened in Nigeria premier league that referee would be buried alive in that stadium.

If the spot kick is in favour of Kano Pillars in Kano, can you tell me who would bury him?

If you don't know the difference, you will mistake MEEKNESS for WEAKNESS.

Jonathan was not WEAK.

He DISMISSED 2 ministers found wanting.

He SACKED his NSA and his entire military chiefs over insecurity.

Has STRONG General Buhari done either?

Above are simply Words on Marbles. Nigerians are now seeing the difference. Who no know go know. The suffering is just at stage 1. Be prepared to lament Awon Revolution Now

UNBOWED AND UNBROKEN: TAKE IT BACK MEMBERS VISIT DEFIANT SOWORE IN DSS DETENTION

At 6pm today, 5th August, 2019, members of the Take it Back Movement were allowed to visit with our convener, Omoyele Sowore, for the first time since his armed abduction in the early hours last Saturday, the 3rd of August.

The visitors met him in high spirits, unmoved by the events of the last few days. The officers allowed the guests to present him with food as Sowore had refused all meals since his capture. We are also happy to confirm that Take it Back members will be allowed to bring him food daily as per his wishes.

The freedom fighter was quick to ask about Movement and Party faithfuls as he is aware that there will be a lot of worry about his wellbeing, and would like to assure everyone that he is being treated well and is in very good health.

He is pleased that the peaceful #RevolutionNow protests he called Nigerians to stand for went ahead, and has expressed his dismay at knowledge of the sheer number of innocent Nigerians being arrested for exercising their civil rights. He is greatly concerned about the wellbeing of all those arrested and /or affected by today’s heavy handed police action, and joins in demanding for their immediate release.

Indeed, the silver lining in today’s unrest lies in the knowledge that the truly, you cannot stop an idea whose time has come.

The Take it Back Movement will continue to agitate for his release as well as that of every single comrade whose voice this oppressive regime has tried to silence.

This visit was a small win; but we will not rest until we are free and free indeed.

Please Rachel leave the TIBM for the owners ... They will exchange you for government patronage soon. If you doubt me, ask about MKO, Ojukwu and Nzeogwu. When the chips are down, tribalism. unbridled greed and selfishness will take pre-eminence.

S/He who has ears, let him/her hear!

EFCC nd FG are making yahoo yahoo a trending business. Afterall this shenanigan, he will plead guilty and embark on plea bargain and sentenced to 5 months jail or optional fine of N50000. Who even cares to ascertain if they actually go to jail?
Truth is that until yahoo-yahoo start attracting minimum of 10 year without option of fine, nothing will change!

johnmartus:
I'm wondering if Nigeria police are living better life. I Went through what Revolution now demanding for and I don't see what really bad in their request in fact it's a responsibility of government to provide those things.
But what surprised me about this protest was the police officer's that living in abject of poverty disrupted the protest.
Police that supposed to drop their weapons and join them in protest could teargas the protesters.

Policemen are doing their jobs. Do you abandon your job because some customers are not happy with your MD?

Ooni:
Today in Lagos someone rammed into the house were I stay, barefooted and sweating profusely. He was holding his shoes on one hand and a red red Barret on the other.

He earnestly pleaded I let him in before any explanations, which I did. During the explanation after he regained his normal heartbeat, he stated that officers of the CIVIL DEFENCE were after them. He said he took part in revolutionnow protest. He said most of the protest leaders took there flight at the sound of a single tear gas round.

I had to allow him take refuge in the lavatory cos the house wasn't mine having myself come for a visit.

I had to ponder though what will make a revolutionary run from the civil defence and not police nor army. This could lend credence though people's allegations of cowardice against the protesters who are mostly from our region. But not all of us.

Lesson: it is always good to help those in distress.

Awon RevolutionNow cowards
