It is naive people like you that would not allow this country to make progress. There is no successful Nigerian that is not corrupt.

Absolutely not true.

Possibly joined for power or other motive her family is well to do, infact she has being in London for over 5years now. Read the charge sheet again, she decieved people to buy her properties under the guise of NSCDC not that she stole from them.

She's been in london after stealing public money.

Millionaire indeed.

Gforce2015:
Is it only civil defense boss boss that has 60 houses in Abuja? Abeg.... Tinubu has more than 2000 houses in Lagos. And owns a lot of lands in Lagos.

But in Anambra Peter Obi has only a small hut.

I just dey pity Siasia.

Incoherent jibber jabber.

All the children of Nigerian criminal politicians both past and present will always turn useless no matter where they studied and level of their education. They cannot steal our stolen wealth, train all their children abroad, while most Nigerian children suffer. So many have died because of their wickedness. A lot have joined criminal cliques due to lack of employments, plus not security.

An Oba is not a politician.

I will speak from the POV of a layman. I don vex!!

So where does the bulk of the oil revenues go to? Let's not forget oil isn't the only revenue earner in the country, the Lagos Seaport being a huge earner, generating billions of naira daily. We want to source for funding, meanwhile all the money we make is unaccounted for, and not only that we are heavily in debt. The figures don't add up, oga Voltron. If I have to levied and taxed then i will like to see the dividends of the tax I'm paying.

This bulk of oil revenue you are referring to is grossly inadequate.

If oil is our number 1 earner, you can bet your top dollar, all others are labouring behind.

Let us even for a second assume we are making exactly the same from Customs duties and another from Agriculture , we would still be on 3 dollars a day for each Nigerian.

The truth is, many Nigerians don't take time to do the maths.

I know times are hard but that shouldn't stop us from solid analysis.

Nigerians need to accept that they live in a poor nation with little productivity.

Productivity is what gives nations strength.

For government to meet its obligations one of it's ready means of doing so is through taxation.

Nigerians must produce.

It appears Nigerians do not understand the problems before them.

Go to court to clear your name.

Ishilove:
Multiple taxation, increase in taxes and ridiculous levies on basic and essential commodities is the way to go. It's already in full swing sef

Explain the multiple taxation.

By the way explain how government can increase revenue without an increase in taxation.

Before you do let us break down our foreign earner - oil.

Nigeria produces 2.5 million barrels of oil daily (actually 2.1 million but I'll stick with our capacity), at 60 dollars per barrel it means we make 150 million dollars a day.

Divide that by 150 million Nigerians (conservatively) that gives 1 dollar a day per Nigerian.

In light of this, please profer a solution.

Touch not.

Very good.

Now to source the revenue as well managing our resources to meet our expectations.

As long as Joshua has Nigerian blood some people have sworn not to like or support him.

Atiku should go and take several seats.

All of a sudden, his likes have become concerned about the welfare of the nation after they did everything to damage it and successfully too.

No be small thing o.

I will stand with you on the above points if you were not part of those who enthrone the present Government, and you see some gullible Persons praising the Govt and would even open their 32 teeth
and say things like, Govt at the center is working, Pathetic enough the nyash lickers call Northern Governors forum'
are praising him on economy, corruption, security etc yet things are getting out of hand everyday in all sectors.
It will never be well with anyone that contributed to enthroning these thieves called Government at the center.

It is because of Buhari Oba Oyekan's supposed son killed a female restauranter in 2012 abi?

Or it was Buhati that pushed OUK or Madueke or Fayose to loot.

It would not be well with anybody that wanted a continuation of the Jonathan's government.

SoNature:
If you consider the cost of organizing election every 4 years, you will understand that there's sense in the bill.

Jonathan made that argument in 2012, but people thought he was being selfish.

I think one tenure of 6 years is better because Nigeria spends so much on election, Nigerians die senselessly during elections, politicians won't be stealing so much to save for their reelection, and election divides this country.

Politicians would do what they do whether the term is for 1 year or 10.

It is a Nigeeian malaise and the politicians are no different from those they rule.

Muhylonaire:
Ode... Wetin concern me concern where you work?
Take your bragging right to someone else bro.
Let's end it here Soldier, people need some plantain in the traffic. Get on with it boy!!

Where were you when the school bells were ringing?

You would remember this everyday you get on the BRT to your hustle.

SarkinYarki:
Swear to Allah Buhari was not rigged back in

Buhari won the popular votes.

He wasn't rigged in.

I'm sure you think Atiku's server results were true.

Muhylonaire:
You know book na im you no dey work with SHELL and CHEVRON? lmao alaye taa
Inferiority complex Inferior to whom exactly? You?
We know your type
Enjoy your rotten life bra. You are just a Nairaland warrior.

You know where I work abi?

E pain am.

Muhylonaire:
your account your problem. How does it affect me. Oh, I get it. Lolz, here comes the usual alakada behavior on Nairaland. I've been expecting it tho.
But guy, your life your problem, your account your problem. Keep your shit to yourself man. No one give a damn!!! Not even someone like me.

Now your inferiority complex rears its head.

Na my fault say you no know book?

Or my fault you couldn't pass any aptitude test?

You give a damn and that is why you are eternally bitter.

In your next life, you would burn the midnight oil for success.

Tata.

Muhylonaire:
The country that doesn't know about your existence or which one?
Goodluck to you Mr bouncer. Let's call it a day!

They dont need to give me an award.

My domicilary account tells me how well I'm doing.

Hedonisco:
Magu's children living the good life, how is that possible? Look, stop deceiving yourself and trampling on the intelligence of Nigerians. Nobody would feel bad seeing Dangote's children living the good life. But how did Buhari train all his children in UK schools? From which salary or pension? From which business? How would Magu afford same? From which legit income?

These are some of the things ordinary sensible Nigerians would see and absolutely reject. Your children are thriving on proceeds of corruption, but you want other people's children to be "legitimately miserable"?

Stop being bitter.

Buhari has a former president is guaranteed by our constitution for the education of his offsprings.

Let us not even talk about his various portfolios including that of a Major General in our armed forces.

Everywhere in the world a Major General can be guaranteed of a good quality of life.

I guess for you, because it is Buhari, it shouldn't be so.

Talk about hypocrisy.

Muhylonaire:
Oga bouncer, maybe you should revisit my comments... I didn't ridicule anybody, my comment wasn't against the guy's hustle but rather the hypocrisy of the EFCC and the inability of the government.
You know what
I deduced that you are just frustrated, you can quote someone else not me. Move on with your frustrated life.
Move on with your plantain selling business
Peace of the lord be with you EFCC advocate

Plantain selling if that was my trade I'd gladly rep it.

If you were wise however, you'd have found what I do for a living which I am proud of.

The country benefits immensely from my likes.

Hope you can say that about yourself.

DenreleDave:
How does helping me vindicate him

Don't worry, he would help you.

Hedonisco:
Don't quote me if you have to be daft. Having been arrested and prosecuted by the EFCC, can you point out the fraud charges brought against him before the courts? So you know something that the EFCC doesn't know?

Some of you are beyond idiotic. You lie in your rodent infested bedroom, filled with hate, envy, and fury over your miserable existence, and think the worst of others - even without proof. If you think Mompha is a fraudster, the least you could do is give us an example of someone he defrauded. If you can't do that, you need to shut up and silently sulk in your misery.

I'll be damned if I read whatever rubbish response you come up with when you invade my mentions again.

Shut up.

Mompha is out on bail because the law permits even those pending trial some rights to freedom.

Mompha is awaiting trial as a conduit for the passage of illicit funds.

Worthy to note, his arrest was at the behest of the Interpol.

Perhaps you know much more about law enforcement than those whose duty it is to enforce the Law.

Muhylonaire:
Pele o, hardworking Nigerian Youth pka Entrepreneurship advocate.
Don't be too bitter bro, you are working with none of em agencies doesn't mean others can't.
Alaye, I can wait for anything, its not your decision to make.

You are the bitter one trying to ridicule a hardworking Nigerian.

Like I said continue waiting for agency work perhaps you'll get one by age 50.

DenreleDave:
I need a job, sir... Any help, I stay in Lagos

You didnt read that he's being cautious abi?

You want him to trust a random person on Nairaland.

Davash222:
A convict has no right!!!

I didn't suggest otherwise.

Although bail is generally a right of an accused as guaranteed by the Constitution, it is not a right available to a convict because the presumption of innocence had crystallised into guilt and conviction,” he said

Let's face it, the black race is still quite primitive.

Barbarians weren't any worse.

The culture wherein hardwork is relegated to the doldrums.

People do not see value in hardwork or modesty.

You praise Yahoo boys but little do you know, you cannot distinguish them from kidnappers or armed robbers.

Some of you would condemn this message not knowing you or your loved one would be condemned by your philosophy.

Until this craze for material things above peace and happiness is done away with, more and more victims would be found amongst us.

Let's be honest, someone from his congregation gave him away.
