It is highly unfortunate that we have clones as union leaders. He is telling us that Total has no right to transfer their staffs again. I wonder when transfer has turn out to be sack in NUPENG terms and warped reasoning. Very shameful.

Some us need to understand the issue here very well. Companies have rights to transfer their staff but this case was an act of victimization. Secondly, when a staff is elected as Union representative, you cannot transfer the staff out of the branch or zone he or she was elected. Once, any company agrees that the union should exist in the company, the company is expected to abide by some of these agreements. Its part of the union/management agreement. Again, Total showed there hand by asking Mrs Elo to take leave of absence thereby showing thereafter that the transfer is not motivated by any work requirement but to render her ineffective as the Zonal secretary of the union. Now Mrs Elo did not refuse to take the leave of absence but since this is the first time such thing will come up in d zone the modalities needs to be worked out bw d parties. But b4 d scheduled date for a meeting, Total issued her a sack letter. So there are events that culminated to the present situation. Its not just now. That the strike is coming now is most unfortunate and I personally would hv preferred d union waits till after xmas. Pengassan position is dat other companies might want to toe the same line and b4 u know it all elected officials are transfered out of d zone they were elected. There r serious intrigues in all pengassan election. Companies sponsor candidates n when there candidates fails election, they resort to other means including forcing a re-election by removing whoever they don't want thru this means (transfer) and making sure their man wins. That is why pengassan has such agreement that an elected member cannot be transfered outside d branch or zone once elected.

Buhari

franchizy:
All of you talking are blind and the reason Nigeria will never move foreatd. this is why igbos will never rule Nigeria because all igbos are bigots and tribalist even ass lickers.
A tribe with five states and even igbos have highest population living in almost all the states of the federation yet igbos cannot support there own son if any comes out to contest for president. they sale there brothers jst cos of N1000.
Weda you like it or not Buhari will pull
votes many in the south east

Now don't say all man. I have been a Buhari supporter for long and actually voted him in all elections and will still vote him come 2015. And am Igbo. I don't give a damn whatever anybody says. My stance, as it has always been, is show me evidence of GMB wrongdoing. I sincerely believe GMB is castigated because of his tough stance on corruption and that is why I am voting him. This country will be heaven on earth if we can take care of corruption but ofcourse the corrupt pple are fighting back with all their agents in Nairaland and other social media.

Like u said Buhari will pull votes in the SE and that shows u that it's not all Igbos are hoodwinked and ur analysis about "all" Igbos are this or that is flawed.

Wetin be PDP own sef? cant they face their own party issues. There are lots of issues and problems from their state primaries for them to sort out. They want a weak team from APC? Naaaa!

When pple outside PH comment as if they are here I shudder. Wike is a known thug who tormented the whole of Obiakpor and Ph city with his boys when he was the Obiakpor LGA chairman. Anyone in PH remember d boys in Garrison, Rumuola, Artillery, etc that will jump into car (both private & commercial) demanding for all manner of receipts (example car radio license)? Those r Wike boys. These are the boys shouting Wike here and there. But PH ppple are wise. Unless PDP is prepared to rig massively, Wike cannot get 10% of votes cast. Forget all the noise.

...what has dat got 2 do wit Gov. Amaechi?[/quote]I just wonder ooo

Nothing at all. He has lost my vote already.

NOI = Ngozi Okonjo Iweala

Wetin dem go rate before? NOI polls cannot be credible until Auntie Ngo bows out of Govt.

They only tell us about the effect of oil price drop. When the oil price goes up, we don't feel the impact at all. Let the austerity measures start from the top. From Aso rock to the National assembly. They should cut their bogus salaries and allowances first.

Why is this not on the frontage yet?

loopman:
Who are the promoters of TAN?

Na my broda Ifeanyi Uba who embezzled our oil subsidy money. Why all Jona friends na thieves really beats my imagination. Anyway, why do we care? Stealing is not corruption.

pring:
Imagin nonsense, I patiently read all that expecting to read where abati will counter Amechi' s claims like the FG has done this or that for the state. Only to read nonsense. Claims are proposed or countered with empirical evidence.
GEJ has nothing to show for the time spent in office.

My dear, just keep politics aside, i've been in Rivers state for the past 14 yrs and I can categorically say that Amaechi has really really done well. If Odili was able to do half of what Amaechi has done, Rivers state would have gone beyond what it is now.

sluvy4tune:
Abati didn't make any sense here









I tot he will counter d falsehood he claimed Amaechi made with facts and evidence

Exactly! I tot Abati wants to counter Amaechi with facts and evidence. But from all that rubbish he said there, Amaechi is simply saying the truth. Reuben Abati can go to any high school and lecture them on how to construct English. As for being honest, he's not even close.

noblezone:
I am one of those who are campaigning against Buhari!
Jonathan happens only to be at the centre.
Give me a good alternative and I will jump at him or her.

Buhari and his gang of rascals belongs to the darkest history of Nigeria!
From Nzeogwu (my kinsman) to Abdulsalami and all that came in between, the trio of Buhari, IBB and Abacha were quite remarkable in their quest for insatiable lust for power!

Is it not because we honour thieves in Africa?
That is why Buhari is still insulting with his inordinate ambition!

Is not because we failed to setup panel of inquiries into why the soldiers that swore to protect the constitution used the guns provided by the constitution to "suspend" the same constitution" with "immediate effect"!

Of course, he was lucky to have escaped with his crime! His coup did not fail, else, was it not firring squad? Would he not had been shot like a common criminal that he is?

Shagari was not ill neither was he incapacitated.
He was not impeached neither did he resign.

Somebody walked into the seat of power, and took over at gun point!
And here we are "clapping" for him.

It will be a slap on my generation if a desperate tyrant like Buhari should rule Nigeria again.
I will accept it as a failure of my generation to educate the younger generation about the true identity of that fox of a general.
Perhaps we folded our hands and relaxed too much and our history has been eroded with lies.

It was Abacha that announced Buhari's coup, it was Abacha that announced IBB as a replacement for Buhari. The same Buhari went under Abacha to work as the PTF Chairman. Abacha was among the "best" of looters, yet, "Saint Buhari" has been defending him that he was not corrupt. If Abacha was not corrupt, then who is? Perhaps, Buhari has a new definition of corruption.

Corruption:
"when you not for me, then you are corrupt. If you are sympathetic to my course, then you are not corrupt."

What do these people want from Nigeria?

I don't care about how his morals hits the skies!
Feb 15 is just about 4 months away! We shall go to the polls.
Let Buhari wins if he can.

For now, we shall continue our efforts to educate the ignorant not to be deceived by the antics of those who had been sold dummies that Buhari is the most righteous Nigerian ever to exist.


@OP, Buhari can park into Aso rock tonite since according you, "he has taken over". After all, he has been calling for a consensus candidate in APC, who knows, he might also call for a consensus president in 2015.

Just note this: I am not trying to run Buhari down, he has been down for a long time.
His hands are filled with innocent blood and like all tyrants, his desperation for power will surely be his undoing!

I wish you all well.

Here goes the rantings of another TAN (Thieving Agberos of Nigeria) member.

chuks01:
That's exactly what nigeria breweries plc do bad mouth guinness products but guinness nigeria Plc concentrate on their product and projects it. And they are waxing stronger. Jonathan will loose come 2015. I am ibo but won't vote for get. The ethnic and religious card won't work this time pdp has a shock coming but they don't know it yet.

That is one thing that most of these online posters don't know. They generalize as if GEJ has the Igbo vote in d bag. I am Igbo and I know a lot many Igbo folks who are waiting to queue behind Buhari. Leave the TANoids to wallow in self delusion. They will get their greatest shocker in 2015.

I usually tell d GEJ supporters to give me a reason to support him as an Igbo man and the only thing I hear is that he appointed Mr. A and Mrs. B as dis or that. Is that what he was elected to do? Am talking about tangible and physical projects. What has he done for his brothers in Niger delta? It is on record that most of d companies in Niger delta was built by d so called Northern muslims. From refineries, petrochemical, LNG, etc. Which one did Jonathan build? Even a northerner would have delivered more for d Niger deltans.

How much for d type dat will carry home electronics?

@OP
How do you solve the problem of transmission and distribution? Will each power company have their own separate transmission and distribution lines? How about termination at the premises? I would like to know how you'll tackle some of these challenges.

I listened to that news. I am not a fan of the President but I think Mr. Sawyer or whatever deserved worse. Infact, describing him as crazy is just putting it very mild. He is no better than a terrorist. I bet Mama Peace would have done a better job here. Where is the first lady when she's needed most?

Good list. My favourites such as Olu Jacobs, Pete Edochie, Joke Silva, Chiwetalu Agu, Patience ozokwo. But seriously, you need to hide the list for now. Bring it out when you have added Nkem Owoh and Fred of Tinsel. Without the legendary Nkem Owoh and Fred, the list does not exist.

fixa: no time to read all this.
make it brief.

No time to read? Then why do you bother to appear on the thread? This is just the major problem with black man. You will not read but wait for someone's comment and then you follow. I pity this generation.

@Topic
This is a good write up by someone close to the Govt. I await a rebuttal (if any)from the opposing party before concluding.

Abagworo: Most Igbos know that Jonathan is not competent but are foolishly supporting him on grounds of being from East. It does us no good supporting someone who is unfit just because of tribe or region.

The Igbos who are supporting GEJ despite his incompetence are those who were born after the war, those who are benefitting from the present state of corruption and those who have refused to learn a bit of history.

I do wonder sometimes how suddenly we have become one with Niger Deltans and Ijaws who will at every opportunity categorically state that Igbos are not their brothers. But for their political convenience, Igbos should support GEJ because we are brothers and these categories of fickle-minded Igbos that I have mentioned will buy that.

I am Igbo and a proud one at that. I don't look for a brother where he does not exist. Ijaws or Niger deltans and Igbos are not brothers and will never be. It is time this my idiotic set of Igbo brothers get it into their thick skull. Is it not Adaka Boro and Saro Wiwa that supported the Nigerian forces and fought against their "alleged" brothers, the Igbos, with their gun and pen respectively and was later betrayed by the Nigerian state?

I don't support a leader simply because he comes from the same geographic expression as mine but on how competent he is in tackling the many issues bedeviling this country. As a result, I don't support GEJ because he is clueless, incompetent and corrupt!

There is no issue here at all. I don't expect different news channels to render exactly same recorded video after editing. Both news media edited their video but atleast the message to a very reasonable extent is the same. So why the fuse?

jmoore: To Cramjones or FFk or FFK's messenger

1- Not all Igbos support corruption. To generalize is tribalism. Many Igbos have condemned the acts by Stella Oduah.

2- If you were guilty of corruption when you were a minister, may God get rid of you too.

Amen!!

Exactly!!! This woman is just disgracing us, Ndigbo. Enough of her baggage. She should be shown the way out. This has nothing to do with tribalism and I wonder why people are generalizing. afterall, the house committee that found her guilty was chaired by another Igbo woman and one of the members of the committee that testified against her is also an Igbo. All these Igbo-defending apostles should please stay off.
Nwanne anyi nwanyi na ete anyi unyi n'iru. Tufiakwa!

Gold-mind:
Ben Akabueze, a prodigal Igbo son.

Taa! Mechie onu gi ndi mmuo ezutaa gi. He's a true and worthy Igbo son making us proud and not the Oduah's of this world.
