jesusjnr:
Wise? Maybe you actually mean sentimental for that's the difference between me and people like you. For if your point is that muslims also steal then i would agree with you as several muslims have looted this nation dry in the past such as Abacha, so if truly Ganduje's been stealing public funds then he's also a thief period. But the same measure should also be applied to those proven christian thieves who oversaw the distribution of public funds meant to prosecute a crucial war in the nation, to finance their own re-election bid etc., and not that just because they're christians that their own stealing should be given a different name. If so then that's just sentiments and not wisdom to me.
Comon, who funded APC election when Buhari had to borrow money to buy form? People call you guys zomB because your reason one way.

Politics › Re: Let's Do Some Calculations On The Naira To The True State Of The Economy by Validated:
Even your APC campaign programme said GEJ left Dollar at N216, where did you get N235?

Again, you tried as though the people you are talking to are kindergartens. Please, there are seasoned economists on this forum. When you want to post nonsense, go some of your local meeting forum where girls are twerking!

As at today, Dollar exchanged for N362 and this is because of CBN daily intervention. Try and buy something on the net and come back and tell us what your bank charges you. If you want us to go by your analogy, then remember that dollar sold for N520. Please, perform your analysis with high and low method and come back sir!

Then again, do your extrapolation thus. If in 16 years of PDP stealing and looting Naira depreciated from N88 to N216 as you recorded, then on the average, annual depreciation is 9% ((216-88)/88/16years). Then in just 3 years of APC Naira depreciated at the rate of 23% annually ((362-216)/216/3years). If this was to continue on same slide, then in next 13 years, Dollars would be exchanging for about N1500 - N2000.

Go and sleep as your analysis did not sell!

Hotfreezer:
They gave you 1 million and you can't manage it well but you want them to give you 100 million.

How many people are in Bayelsa that their allocation can't do meaningful projects?

The Governor built an uncompleted airport and took schoolchildren on an excursion to see the airport. The clown called it a Human capital development. grin
I am not holding forth for the governors. Say, you live in Lagos, have you attempted to build a house in Lekki and compare your cost with same house built at Iju? Cost of raft alone have built the structure in mainland. The road you build with N1B in Kano will gulp 3 times in Bayelsa. Why almost everything would be bridges.

The ecological impact of exploration is massive while the states in Niger Delta receive less allocation because Federal revenue is shared based on unsubstantiated population figures.

Move any Lagos governor to Bayelsa and they will be total failures. At least we have seen how overrated Fashola who was a supposed champion has turned out at Federal level grin

Politics › Re: Question For The People Of Biafra by Validated: 4:18am On Oct 17, 2018
Runalong333:
Now that many are atikulating and the excitement over Peter Obi has taken over many parts of the east , does this mean the struggle for Biafra is nolonger relevant?. I'm happy that you guys want to embrace Nigeria for once, but what does this really say about you. You get one person put as VP and you abandon something that generations of your people have fought for ?. Can a man who abandons something he embraced as his identity for so long be trusted not to betray others , since he clearly has betrayed himself?. I'm not trying to insult you guys , but I really want to understand what this all means . For years we have been hearing how Yorubas are subservient to the North , was it all jealousy because you guys wanted to be the main servants of the north?.

Nb//

I'm as igbo as I am Yoruba .
You completely missed the point here and again most of you post on bias without trying to find the root cause of a matter. The Biafra struggle have never been to create a separate republic from Nigeria. Rather, it has always been about allowing regions control their resources and grow at their own pace. That was why we SS support the struggle!! However, when you keep insisting that the status quo cannot be changed, then you push people to the wall. Go and read about the Aburi declaration. Ojukwu and others did not want to create a republic but to allow eastern Region and other regions to develop at their own pace. This was agreed and all parties signed, but after the meeting, the West and North reneged on agreement, hence Easterners and South South sought a way out. hence, Biafra!! See extract from the Aburi Accord:

(i) "Members agree that the legislative and executive authority of the Federal Military Government should remain in the Supreme Military Council, to which any decision affecting the whole country shall be referred for determination provided that where it is possible for a meeting to be held the matter requiring determination must be referred to military governors for their comment and concurrence.

(ii) Specifically, the council agreed that appointments to senior ranks in the police, diplomatic, and consular services as well as appointment to superscale posts in the federal civil service and the equivalent posts in the statutory corporation must be approved by the Supreme Military Council.

(iii) The regional members felt that all the decrees passed since January 15, 1966, and which detracted from previous powers and positions of regional governments, should be repealed if mutual confidence is to be restored
.

The part that was contentious is Centralising the government structures thereby destroying regional powers and making Federal control all resources. This was the imbalance that the Biafrans fought for and still struggling for. Now this imbalance has made it possible for Niger Delta resources to be unfairly shared to Kano and Jigawa that have more Local Governments than about 4 states in SE/SS. Take for instance Bayelsa that has only 9 LGAs and Kano that has 44. While greater % of the incomes comes from Bayelsa, Kano gets 44 Parts, while Bayelsa that generated it gets 9 Parts. That is like making 90% and getting 20%. Is it Fair? Today, the Ogonis cannot ply their trades, Oloibiri has been raped and abandoned, etc. Visit the delta and see how much Nigeria has raped the region and people in the name of Centralised Federal system.

Now to your question as to why Easterners as well as those of us in SS support Atiku, it is simple. In 2014, GEJ attempted to give Nigeria a life line with the National Conference. Everyone, including your region went there and agreed on the principle of fairness, equity and justice. To drive that, they came up with the idea of restructuring the polity, resource control and management, etc. This is not new, rather it is just like, lets go back to pre-1966 constitutions that gave regions powers to grow at their own pace!! It was another attempt at resurrecting the Aburi Accord! But again ...

PMB got there and threw it into the dustbin, just as it was done to the first Aburi Accord, so that the status quo can continue. All Atiku has done to win the hearts of SS/SE/NC/Afenifere in SW was to rekindle hopes on restoration of the ideals of TRUE FEDERALISM.

Put simply, anyone against RESTRUCTURING is AGAINST NIGERIA. Because, not only SS/SE now see the need, but NC and a good % of Yorubas now see what "Biafra" saw 50 years ago. We have tried this federal system for 50 years and it is not working. My friend, insanity is doing same thing over and over and expect a different result. Let us try a restructured Nigeria and see which is better!!

In 1985, IBB waited for Idiagbon to go on hajj pilgrimage and just asked Buhari to step down and the coward did. That was the only bloodless military to military coup because the dullard has always been a coward. Supposed Idiagbon was around then, that government would not have been overthrown so easily.

OOA1979:
SHORT MEMO TO ALL NORTHEASTERNERS:

ATIKU'S vz BUHARI'S ACHIEVEMENTS IN NORTHEASTERN NIGERIA

Atiku's "performance" in the Northeast as Vice President for 8 years is as follows:

1. American University of Nigeria (private ownership)

2. AUN Hotels (private ownership)

3. ABTI Printing Press (private ownership)

4. ABTI Schools (private ownership)

5.Gotel Radio/FM/TV (private ownership)

6.Rigo Gado Animal Feeds (private ownership)

7. Atiku Farms (private ownership)

8. ADAMA Beverages Ltd - makers of FARO bottled water and fruit juices (private ownership)

9. Procurement of private jets (private ownership)

Atiku has done very well for himself during his "public service" with these personal investments (in the Northeast alone). When they tell you that Atiku Abubakar is a man of "ideas" and "solutions", that's exactly what they mean. He has ideas and solutions on how to make himself wealthy!

President Buhari's performance in the Northeast in just 3 years (2015 - 2018) is as follows:

1. Reconstruction of Gombe - Yola road (public ownership)

2. Rehabilitation of Bauchi - Gombe road (public ownership)

3.Reconstruction of Gombe - Biu road (public ownership)

4. Completion of Kano - Maiduguri expressway project (public ownership)

5. Reconstruction of Numan - Jalingo road (public ownership)

6. Rehabilitation of Mayo Belwa - Toungo road (public ownership)

6. Revival of the gigantic Mambilla hydroelectric dam in Taraba State that was abandoned for 45 years (public ownership)

7. Approval for the establishment of the Northeast Development Commission (public ownership)

8. Seizure of territory from Boko Haram insurgents and the ongoing return of IDPs to their rescued communities

9. The return of the search for oil in Bauchi State through Gombe State and the Lake Chad region (public ownership)

10. Recent approval of the sum of 612 million naira for the rehabilitation/completion of Cham dam in Gombe State (public ownership)

11. Ongoing reconstruction of the Yola to Jada road (Atiku's hometown) at the sum of 22.6 billion naira (public ownership)

12. Setting up of a new Nigerian Air Force Base in Bauchi (public ownership)

13. Proposal to revive the old Bauchi - Gombe - Yola railways (public ownership)

The difference is absolutely clear: Vice President Atiku Abubakar used PUBLIC SERVICE to set up and enhance his PERSONAL SERVICE for PERSONAL GAINS while President Buhari is using PUBLIC SERVICE to set up PUBLIC UTILITIES for PUBLIC GAINS! So, whenever you hear them saying Buhari has no "ideas" and "solutions", they actually mean to tell you that Buhari only has the ideas and solutions of public service for everybody's benefit!

Therefore, will any sane, morally upright and patriotic Northeasterner choose Vice President Atiku Abubakar over President Muhammadu Buhari? No way! Northeasterners know those who truly love them and those who are simply using them for personal business profits
Very knowledgeable. We will still vote for ATIKU so that he can create 1,800,000 personal jobs, that is 50,000 per state. As you mentioned he did all those for himself, so he can replicate same for himself in the 36 states of the Federation.

Dear Atiku, you must be fair to all Nigerian voters.
You cannot share $5,000 to PDP delegates for the Presidential ticket, then you tell
the rest of us to join you to rescue Nigeria.
For us to vote, you have to let the $5,000 go round each voter, else no vote.
The arithmetic is very simple. It is $5,000 X 180 million Nigerians = how much?
Chicken change for you Sir, just $900 billion.
I know you are richer than Nigeria as a Nation. Since you have started with vote
buying, pls complete it abeg you Sir.
You cannot buy delegates conscience and expect love from Nigerians freely and just
like that.
Anything less than $5,000 no deal ooooo.
It will be completely unfair Sir.
Delegates cannot be smiling to the Banks after voting for you as a presidential
candidate then the real electorates who will determine your presidency will be asked
to be patriotic.
Patriotism should have started from when you were canvassing for delegates vote.
Grateful Sir. Yours sincerely.
