Don't get it twisted. Bad behavior persists because we allow it. Nigeria is at d crossroads today because many see bad behavior & keep silent. Ar u saying i should keep quiet when i see what i believe is bad behavior?.

Why not take a trip to the original post and come back to comment otherwise you try your bed...

My man I would want to see this happen in a free and well monitored elections but it all seems Wike is scared of it and many of his supporters see this prowess more than him. Truth is he knows it's not as most of you think. I followed most of the campaigns in Rivers and the hatred for Amaechi seemed too exaggerated. I was in Rivers most of the campaign period.

Start this your campaign from North... seek for cancellation of election especially that of buhari with many child voters and outright rigging with no void votes...before spewing trash here...you were there in campaign but not there in election yet you keep disturbing our peace here with nothing

Bro, seen my PM? Sent it in the evening!

Sure boss...will get back to you when the weather is cool and wolves aren't watching... thanks so much

Do I need to be in Rivers at this age to know what happened during the elections? Wake up! FYI I have spent more time in Rivers in the past 4 years than I have spent anywhere else in Nigeria. You and your fellow have said many times elections were rigged elsewhere in the country, where you omnipresent in these areas during the elections too. Quit the hypocrisy, what happened before and during the elections in Rivers is known even to the unborn Rivers children and in due time the chickens will come home to roost.

I am not supporting any illegality FYI. If there was a subsisting court order stopping the elections and Amaechi went ahead the courts are still there to throw the so called chairman away. But the problem here is many stories only gain weights on Nairaland and do not represent the true pictures of reality in real life. We witnessed many before and after the elections. So take a chill pill and I stand by my first comment that anyone that supports the charade and disaster called elections in March and April is only being hypocritical if he cries about or challenges the May 23 LG elections.

Go get some sleep bro...

Truckpusher:
Lmao....me no trust this kain wish o.

Its a cool wish...I got your back bro

philips70:
Point of correction. Manual accreditation was only for presidential elections which has no bearing on whatever we are talking about here.

smh

datribune:
I didn't bother to read d article. Luke 6:43 - "A good tree can't produce bad fruit, & a bad tree can't produce good fruit". I don't waste time reading posts frm hypocrites who hav no integrity & stand 4 nothing. Reading dat guy is like reading Abati & taking him serious. I used to.

Don't you think you deserve pity for perching on thread of a hypocrite...it means you have no taste, no choice, restless and confused...

barcanista:
My brother, the most annoying about APC and their supporters is that "their leaders are always right". They see the party like a religious creed where whatever their leaders say or do is canonised. It doesn't matter whether that thing is logical or illogical. It doesn't matter whether that thing is illegal or legal. They are out to bite, attack and some are ready to kill any dissenting voice. That alone ruled them out from being considered as a political group.

Remember Hitler and his followers...they just reincarnated in APC and followers...

philips70:
With the advent of the card readers and accredited voters it will surely be annulled. It's no rocket science. He can't scale both the tribunal and Appeal courts. Even when the electoral processes weren't this sophisticated tribunals threw many victories away. The only thing not sure is if Dakuku can win Wike in a free and fair elections. Yet we can't still say, Amaechi and Dakuku still have followers in Rivers and know that Rivers have majority non indigenous voters in the many urban areas across the state. Remember Wike thrived on impunity with support of federal might which will be non existent from May 29th. This is just my non bias analysis which has no bearing on our individual wishes and hatred for any personality.

Which card reader and accredited voters?...quit sounding disjointed bro...When Jega sent his team to investigate amechis claim of no election; what was the outcome?...was their not permission for manual accreditation?... which state had its number of voters equal what was recorded in the card reader?...Lagos even with low turnout of voters on April election had more votes than March election that had massive turnout but you hypocritically won't support tribunal to upturn ambode presumed victory...

Truckpusher:
Of course I'm always stating the obvious.

carry on...more meat to your soup

philips70:
I agree with you I have bias for APC maybe because I have seen too much of the evils of the PDP since 1999. But the difference between us is I don't support anyone who messes up whether APC or PDP. Peruse my comments on this forum and you will see where I have condemned APC and given adequate applause to a PDP person that does good. Elections are hardly free and fair anywhere but we are talking about what happened in Rivers recently. In your heart you know that was no elections but your beef with Amaechi and how he betrayed the ND will not let you say it. That's hypocrisy. Now, let me tell you if there's anyway a court of law will prove Amaechi embezzled Rivers funds I will gladly welcome him to jail because am not bigoted like many of you. I am from Delta state and i can categorically tell you Ifeanyi Okowa of the PDP won the elections even as there were irregularities.

In Rivers state there were no elections and the whole world knows the courts will throw that contrived victory into the latrines!

1)Thanks for accepting you're pro-apc...

2)You need to also accept that you're confused, biased and uninformed. Otherwise, you would know that 80% of APC folks and leaders were PDP former members including your hero;Amechi...who did whatever wrong you attached to the PDP...

3)If you're for good governance, believe me you won't support amechi ignoring subsisting court judgement... this is serious foundation for anarchy just like rochas did in IMO too...Remember, amechi killed judiciary in Rivers...

4)Where you in delta and rivers at same time during election

5)You need to look at your sense of judgement again...

datribune:
As d political stock of d PDP keeps plummeting, so does dis guy's IQ. Barcanista, Nairaland's Orubebe, one of d gullible fools who thought nigerians will keep d kleptomaniac in power has bcom a loose canon throwing tantrums on d forum. d trash u posted is not how to play opposition politics. Since it's GEJ's season of firing, ur paymasters might fire u soon. Hahahaha

After all the bold fonts you used; still you couldn't make any statement that connects to the topic of the thread...

barcanista:
Bros, e be like na today you know Philip. The guy is confirmed pro-APC. His own case is worse sef

The truth is there is no neutrality in politics as long as one is involved

Never knew him just came across him in my thread and thought he was sane...

Yes, to your last sentence. I was simply following candidates irrespective of party; but finally saw myself supporting PDP too because to me they are far lesser devils than APC...The later contradicts my moniker and represents everything wrong with Nigeria since 1978...

Truckpusher:
Insulting an already bitter man adds nothing to his super bitterness.

u get mouth dieeeee

eniyanpataki:
Animalistic Barcanista , why wont you hold a fellow animal in high esteem...i cant remember you creating a topic about the mess your useless president GEJ has sunk the country into especially in the last two weeks, you come here seeking attention and posting thrash..your are so desperate for attention that you create a crappy blog to attack APC, You think this will land you an appointment with pdp goons? keep fooling yourself ! You better face your night security job before your oga comes in..certificateless idiot who's accusing Buhari of having no certificate...the next time you talk about Buhari's certificate, you will earn yourself a no-holds-bare exposure on your state of certicatelessness...i wont say more than that for now

We have seen such empty threats many times bro...park well jare

Why not create such threads highlighting Jonathan failures yourself?...

philips70:
Fortunately am not an APC member, not a politician and not seeing myself near politics in the nearest future. You are the highest hypocrite the world ever recorded if you compare what happened in Rivers state in those two elections to anywhere else in the country. If you do I will advise you ditch that moniker for Whynotlies. As long as hypocrites like you and the other inconsequential one who also quoted me will not condemn what Wike and Obuah did in Rivers state none of you have no moral justification to point your dirty fingers at Amaechi. They just buried the families your lords slaughtered at Obrikom-Omoku last week. Can't withstand people who support evil like you guys just because of hatred for one man. You guys are a pathetic bunch. One day this evil you support in Rivers will come to your own households. That's just the law of life.

I was tempted to insult you more but had to apply some restraint because two can't be mad at same time...

Where in Nigeria was election free and fair?...

You're pro-APC bro...Most people here aren't career politicians too so forget your excuse...

philips70:
If you are asked to swear with your life the elections held on March 28th and April 11th in Rivers were 10% credible, free and fair will you do it?

finny people...
1)Answer my question to you first...

2)Why would I swear for election?... I can't swear for something worthwhile not to talk of election... I live my moniker bro...

3)Mention a single state in Nigeria where election was NOT rigged?...

I hate hypocrisy and hypocrites...I am simply for good governance and rule of law but APC is worse than PDP in all negative statistics...You guys are pathetic and too partisan to be engaged...

philips70:
It is sheer hypocrisy for anyone to call the LG elections in Rivers sham while still defending Wike who committed the highest heist ever recorded in electoral matters just a few weeks ago in what they called presidential and governorship elections. He who must come to equity must come with clean hands. Wike used the powers he had on March 28th and April 11th while Amaechi used his on May 23rd. Why will anyone be crying? Amaechi is a traitor to the SS because he stood for what he believes while all the representatives of Jonathan's constituencies decamped to the same APC and nobody has taken their heads in Bayelsa. Am ashamed a woman has taken away the senses of most Rivers people.

Can you read your post again and see how sensible and justified your comparison is?

MrJanuzaj:
.


Good boy gone bad!!!. You need a job to cater for your needs, this your current one is so disgusting. You are gradually losing it. Change its a candid advise

Don't you think that even with your so called job that you lack common sense and reason to live among sane people... Partisanship has so blinded you that you lack the singular virtue of respecting constitution and people's freedom to self expression... You're the one who has lost it and needs serious introspection....

Back to topic;
barcanista, I support Wike to not blink a second before annulling that election and sending those guys packing...and also engage in serious forensic probe of Amechi as that will mark the first true phase and test of corruption fight by buhari...

Passingshot; I saw you sheepishly and blindly as always writing trash on that heterosexual being's thread...I keep telling you that partisanship has made you lose every sense of decency and decorum...Tomorrow, you will still tell me how you're propelled by patriotism...You have lost it all...sit down and reflect over your life again...

BTW local government election was conducted in Imo state long before Rochas won gubernatorial election there...He sacked all of them and they went to court and won him...but he never reabsorbed them or allowed them to return to office...that's the change preachers for you...

dustmalik:
With these two intelligent posts, this thread should have been closed. The Tanoids have nothing to say, as usual.

Days ahead will define price of partisanship for you...

Raiders:
removal subsidy is not the long term solution to the fuel problem. WE NEED REFINERIES. GEJ/ PDP had 16 yrs to build and repair our refineries but they choose to do nothing.

Yes, it is not...but that's the only wise thing to do for now...though I see NLC as obstacle...the role of ACN/CPC back then maybe used to blackmail them now too...

socialmediaman:
I'm really tired of all these name saving for Jonathan. He failed, nothing short of failure can truly paint a picture of his performance.

This is the real story:

In 2012 January 1st, Jonathan announced an end to the petrol subsidy. NLC reacted and mobilized the masses who were taken by surprise. (This was not a party issue).

The NLC replied the government, "Fight The corruption in the sector first, you will have nothing to subsidize"... Jonathan never did this.

What are the corruption in the oil sector imports? There are thousands, but I'll name just a few outstanding ones:

1. Importers bring in petrol into the country and inflate the figures. Let's say an importer brought in 1 vessel, he brings a claim for 20 vessels, he is paid subsidy for the 20 vessels, no inspection to see if these vessels entered the shores of Nigeria, Nothing. They are just paid. This is crazy! No serious government will tolerate this, but Jonathan choose to ignore it

2. Importers bring in vessels into the country. After getting paid for subsidy, they divert these products to neighboring countries where the petrol sells higher, and they make double profits while we experience scarcity. It is noteworthy that these people do not fly these products into neighboring countries, they drive them, passing immigration and customs at our borders. Isn't this crazy? This is how people will be using our borders to import arms and illegal dangerous weapons, do we have a government, really? This was no problem for Jonathan.

3. NNPC imports products and intentionally delay these products from being offloaded for months so as to incur demurrage and share the proceeds with the vessel owners, they were indicted severally for these

4. Even with all these fraud and impunity by these oil marketers, many of them still get import waivers that cost Nigeria $20 billion dollars in revenue as pointed out by NOI in 2014.

Lots other crimes, this is just a teaser...

So what was Our apprehension?
NLC and Nigerians generally believed that unless you fight corruption in the sector, if you remove subsidy, these cabals will gang up and hoard these products so they become expensive again, what will the president do? If he could not fight corruption in the first place, how could he control impunity by the same greedy marketers?

Conclusion
This rubbish of leniency and kid gloves on sensitive matters such as embezzlement, fraud, impunity and corruption will end with President Jonathan's government. Nigerians deserve better. These cabals know we have a toothless president but they are yet to see the reward for their sabotage

Ps: I think Ifeanyi Uba is only being sensible and smart, they probably have got wind of the hurricane that will sweep them away in the coming weeks and it only makes sense to sacrifice and stay in business. These country hijackers haven't seen anything yet

bro...deregularization would have saved us the pain of this long article...

NLC started a protest which was hijacked by political parties...and later culminated in deaths...

You cannot fight corruption when you have no evidence because inasmuch as you know the marketer shortchanged you but how do you prove it beyond doubt in court....These things by marketers are just too easy to divert and make double profit.....

Our experience in fertilizer abi agricultural sector would have been same here if Jonathan had succeeded with subsidy removal....

Most times, we become too sentimental that we lose our head....

Now, proffer solutions that are better than what Jonathan did....say the what and how plz

PassingShot:
To buttress your points, the partial subsidy removal that eventually took place, were the promised palliatives provided?

The SURE-P program, as has been revealed just last week that the employee figure was inflated from 12k to 35k, is another evidence of the scam.

The buses that were promised, where are they today? The refineries, where are they?

Bottom line:
1. I believe there was no true subsidy in the first instance. What we had was an imaginary subsidy.

2. If there truly was subsidy, GEJ could have handled the removal in a more responsible manner than just announcing through the radio, on January 1st 2012, that subsidy was removed. No where in the whole world will such action go unchallenged. He needed to have discussed it with major stakeholders the need to remove subsidy. Ibb, Abach and even OBJ removed some subsidy and we witnessed how they handled it.

3. Nigerians, by rejecting the subsidy, were able to reduce/limit their loss had we allowed full subsidy removal.

4. Now that majority of Nigerians believe we have a more trust-worthy president in Buhari, they will accept a subsidy removal (if there was any) provided they know what they'd get in returns in predetermined dates.

Who inflated those figures if its true bro?
Jonathan brought buses for mass transit and was given to each state...what did you state do with theirs?

Jesusloveyou:
u are right, but which subsidy? I never believe in subsidy, it is gej that is selling us to cabal,we protested against subsidy scam,not actually subsidy removal, we told gej to make our refinery work,before removing subsidy, if d refinery is working,we can purchase fuel @60naira, that is why me and buhari said we don't know what u mean by subsidizing us, who is subsidizing who? What we know is subsidy scam, remove d scam,we wil buy d idea of subsidy removal.

I support our refineries be put back to function but there's subsidy bro...I don't like arguing blindly especially on matters whose technicalities, I don't understand... but you can read up the attached thread here...

patrickmuf:
Before you start your image laundering, I'd like you to quote what GEJ said after the removal of partial subsidy...
Did he promise refineries?
Did he promise palliative measures would be taken to ease the pain associated with the partial removal of subsidy?
You're in a hurry to rope the ACN/APC in...Please do a more constructive write up or zip up...

Was there palliative measures after all?...
what was sure-p with its interventions in various sectors for including transport and health?...mass transit buses was for what?...

Truckpusher:
Where are those Lagosians that were protesting like they are the only people being affected by the fuel subsidy in 2012?


This is what you get when a particular section of any country is used to freeloading.

The marketers simply bamboozled them and they protested against their own future .

Jonathan shouldn't pay any dime, let the olodo General they so much loved pay up and see what our Jona was passing through in the hands of these criminal marketers ,and again has anyone bothered to ask why is it that most of these marketers are from a particular section of the country ?
Nigeria needs serious restructuring abeg before we go for each other's jugular.

Baba said he doesn't understand subsidy...these marketers may teach him the hard way

barcanista:
My brother, the problem with the subsidy regime is troubling. However, removing it comes with challenges because the marketers will use the opportunity to rip us. We have no refinery, we have problem of mass transit, we have electricity p®oblem and all these wÍll affect the economy and businesses if the subsidy is removed overnight without fixing some of these things. Yes, the subsidy has to go but we should put mechanism in place for smooth removal. Sadly, our system is so flawed and corruption at every level is so pronounced. I supported the protest then but I wanted a deal that will see gradual removal while things are put in place. But what are we getting?

I blame the Government for not doing what they ought to. I also blame the Marketers for being fraudulent and insensitive. The public too should be blamed for not knowing what they want. Most importantly, I blame the clueless labour

When the situation at NITEL became irredeemable and it was opened up, were we ripped off?

There's always a regulatory agency to monitor arbitrary price increase...

Government can always support or indirectly control the prices by doing some retail through their own mega stations too...

Mass transit was started by Jonathan then...what happened to those buses and their operators?...corruption is deep in Nigeria DNA including the poor people...
