The only reason Amaechi will lose this position is because he has no access to River State oil money in order to self fund Buhari's campaign

Now they want Rochas and Imo State funds for Buhari's re-election

and you say this lot are fighting corruption?

This executive order should be immediately challenged in court

This is an attempt to accuse people unjustly and sieze their properties

There are already court processes available to freeze people's account but this must be decided in the court of law and not through Buhari's executive order!

Nigerians must fight against Tyranny!!!!!!!!!

That's all he knows how to do!!! Issue decrees!!!!!!!

If GMB invents any executive order at odds with the Nigerian constitution it will not stand!!!!!!!!

We are trying to be a Nation of laws and we will not undermine our constitution for expediency sake

everyone who disagree with you politically is corrupt?

This is Fascism and Oshiomole has bought into it!

PDP should allow Saraki to contest for their ticket if he returns!

grow up son!

Hillary Clinton called Obama all sorts of names but served him as Secretary of State

Organism000:
It was a Political witch-hunt, after all the dullard in Aso Rock has not even declared his assets and if he has, he has refused to show the public and does not even show the public what disease he is suffering from and even though his own personal diseases is treated with our money, refused to tell us how much he has spent.

Such a useless Presidiot. But was pursuing Saraki up and down. He has finally failed as APC is fragmented into factions.

exactly and we are talking about Saraki's asset forms from 15years ago!!!!

Time and time again the supreme court has shown that it does not engage in emotions. They always interprete the law as it is. I don't want this write up too long. But time and time again whether it is Atiku vs Obasanjo or PDP vs Ali Modu-Sherriff or now Saraki vs CCB. They always stand up for the law without emotions


Think about this chronology of events:

1. CCB charges Saraki and drags him before the CCT

2. Saraki appears before the CCT but then challenges the jurisdiction of the CCT at a higher court and even challenges number of Judges available on the CCT Bench

3. The appeal on the Jurisdiction of CCT goes all the way to the Supreme court

4. The Supreme rules against Saraki saying the CCT has jusridiction on the matter and is correctly constituted

5. The matter comes back to the CCT and trial continues on 18 count charges against Saraki
6. prosecution fails to provide hard evidence to nail Saraki and defence enters a "no case" submission

7. The same CCT that Saraki was challenging upholds the "no case" submission of the defence team and accuses the prosecution of relying on heresay. Saraki is Acquitted by the CCT.
8. The CCB appeals the matter and appeal court decides that Saraki has a case to answer on 3 out of the 18 count charge and refers the matter back to the CCT

9. Saraki/Dafence appeals the appeal court judgement at the Supreme Court. The Supreme court upholds the first decision of the CCT that the prosecution was relying on heresay.

10. Case Closed as Saraki is acquitted!

twice this matter was refered to Supreme court it initially ruled against Saraki/Defence team but later rules in favour of Saraki/Defence team. On both cases all I see is sound judgement from the Supreme Court based on sound interpretation of the law.


Let no one fool you with speculations of machinations, corruption or innuendo. The Supreme Court always stands up for what is right. Those who were against Saraki fought hard to take him down. While Saraki fought hard to defend his name. In the end the rule of law won!


This is a victory for the rule of law and the Supreme Court!

gr8tone:
The judge said that the evidence gathered are based on hear say and you said I don't know what means? You have low knowledge of comprehension

you obviously did not watch the video

gr8tone:
With the wide range of evidences provided to prosecute Saraki, but the Judge didn't find him guilty, yet you still hold it against him even when you don't have any evidence to justify your claims, your frustration no get boundry oo

you don't know the difference between evidence and hear say

The court does not do emotions. Watch this video and be educated.

Justice At last!!!!!!!!

Congratulations to Dr Bukola Saraki. He has fought this fight with grace and stood tall all through!

Ibegtodiffer:
This is logically sound. But what people don't understand is that, land grabbing is part of the target. The North has sufficient grazing fields. But the North has already been conquered. There is the need for expansion, and that is what you are witnessing.

exactly why it must be up to State Governments and their State Assemblies to decide if they want to take part in providing lands for ranching or not.

Bukola Saraki as Governor provided lands for white Zimbabwe farmers to farm in Kwara. But most importantly it was the choice of Kwara State and its assembly to do this. Not FG or African Union!

The number 1 responsibility of government is to defend the security of Nigerians/their properties. This requirement is written in the constitution and it is not a subject of negotiation.


Government need to immediately proscribe the act of wandering from place to place with cows and thereafter arrest anyone who fails to obey the law. You can not in your pursuit of your business trample on the rights of others, destroy their properties, kill others and get away with it. Otherwise we might as well start negotiating with Armed Robbers too! If you must move herds of cow from one point to another and you do not own all of the land in-between then you must put the herds of cow in a truck and move them! simple!


After the above is done, then Government can through its Agricultual banks provide loan schemes for Cattle rearers who may want to access loans to purchase land for Ranches. State Governments (As a matter of choice) may also be encouraged to provide low cost land to cattle farmers for lease. But this must be done as a matter of choice. Mark the key words "Loans" , "Choice", "Scheme by State governments interested"


If Sokoto wants to provide such low cost lands but Ekiti does not want to it should be their choice. It CAN NOT, I repeat It CAN NOT be up to FG to impose any land scheme on any state.


Cattle Rearing is a Private Business like all other businesses in the country. The mere fact that herdsmen are engaging in terror does not mean the Government must fall flat and give in to terror!

You still not a making a point with regards to subject matter

Be truthful and feasible to yourself. Do you have a better solutionn outside ranching devoid of hate?

Well said

They just blinded by hate.

Blame they can do, logical solution outside ranching they don't have.

"Our land" gang

you have no solution my dear. You can not give in to every demands of terrorists! Otherwise you can as well hand over the North East of Nigeria to Boko Haram and allow them to declare an Islamic State.

so long as this distrust exist Nigeria will not progress

Igbo/Yoruba alliance is the true progressive alliance Nigeria needs

All our advances is education, banking, sports, entertainment etc have all been largely made by Southerners!

Until southerners unite for the common good and stop allowing themselves be a pawn in the hands of the Hausa Fulani, Nigeria will continue to slow down. No one is advocating anti-North sentiments. All we ask is for all Southerners to stand up together for justice and shun short term political interest.

This is what I keep saying about Rohr! where was FIFA ranking when Russia beat Spain?

In football anything can happen. Play with hope with your head held high and leave the rest to mother luck. Don't take a bright shinning light like Ebuehi to world cup if you don't believe in him.

You keep Ebuehi and Simy Nwankwo on the bench and go round making excuses about being 47th in the world!

Rohr should go! Nigeria needs a coach that can inspire us to achieve beyond our abilities!

does anyone know if Gernot Rohr has won anything anywhere

Such a man who I so slow can not win a tournament or inspire his players

he spent all summer telling everyone that his team is hopeless because they are 47 in the world

Nigeria has reached second round 3 times including once with a local coach but Rohr failed to at least reach this never mind surpassing it

he should go, we need a new coach. Finidi George has coaching licence from Spain let him try

Gernot Rohr is a stubborn man who does not know what he is doing

he is also not looking inward enough. there is no way Bryan Idowu is our best left back when we have Ikouwem Udoh, Ebube Duru or Chima Akas.

hashtag# share your pictures of Cattle headers with guns
#Cattleheaderswithguns

Nigeria has played in the last 16 of the world cup 3 times, a coach that cant get us to the last 16 is retrogressing. he should resign

across the 3 games we were always reacting to other teams. we were never on the front foot

sunnysunny69:
Coach did his job, we lack good attacking footballers.

Ighalo is not the best striker in his squad of 23 let alone the whole of Nigeria

Rohr does not recognise talent

Gernot Rohr should kindly resign. He is on Mega money but has not improved our football in Anyway

with the right formation and players we could have gone through

Against Croatia we played the wrong formation and the wrong players

Against Iceland we started Idowu he gave us nothing going forward then we brought in Ebuehi second half and game changed

Today why in God's name did Ebuehi not start? That decision to start Idowu made the team get back in their shell and try to defend for 90 minutes. we had no outball today and save for a lucky penalty we did not do much. We did not play football today because of this single decision.

Rohr is too stubborn and too conservative for Nigerian football. We can not use one world cup to prepare for the next and if this is our ambition then a Nigerian coach should be hired and given a 10 years plan to win the world cup.


not some foreigner on mega money

in the pecking order. After goal difference I think is goal for. Spain scored 6 while Portugal scored 5 in total



According to BBC

Fifa World Cup group ranking rules (in order)

1. Greatest number of points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned
2. Goal difference resulting from the group matches between the teams concerned
3. Greater number of goals scored in all group matches between the teams concerned
Failing that...
4. Greater number of points obtained in the fair play conduct of the teams based on yellow and red cards received in all group matches (read the full explanation here)
And finally...
5. Drawing of lots by the Fifa organising committee

if we beat Argentina all this nonsense will count for nothing

Nigeria must focus on what we do with Argentina and forget the Croatia match

If we beat Argentina the result in the Croatia vs Iceland match will not matter

football formations are overrated. subject to interpretation and appreciation of the players all football formations are the same thing!

whatever allows you to stay compact, attack in numbers and defend in numbers and score goals then thats what works for you.

I love the intensity of the Senegalese

Victor Moses is the best wing back in the world

We need Victor Moses and Tyronne Ebuehi to start in the wing back positions against Argentina!

we just need to beat Argentina and nothing else will matter
