NavierStokes:
Do we both realize that we are arguing over a website that started keeping records from 1988 (except Nigeria used to be in NATO prior to 1988), I have looked at the spreadsheet for all member countries and it begins from 1988, so we should be asking ourselves how the data from "Buhari Years" came about.
I think thats the first puzzle we should solve before taking an I.Q test. I did take one not too long ago and it wasn't bad.
but i would be happy to look again if any one can tell me where on the page in the link the data was taken from, thats if I missed it already.

9jaIhail:
I wasted my time reading all the junk you put above without figuring out a single answer to the question the OP of this thread seek for.

In case you did not understand the question, can i write it in a capital letter? WHAT WAS OJUKWU SIN THAT WARRANTED GMB TO THROWN HIM INTO JAIL FOR TEN (10) GOOD MONTHS MAN.

Trailblazer1:
APC should have attached a small packer to their logo. After sweeping out corruption won't you pack it?

jmaine:
According to your link after the purported 541 Aircrafts bought by Buhari (1984-1985)

IBB regime added additional 201 (1986-1993). . .

Abacha added 20 (1994-1998)

Obasanjo added 94 (1999- 2007)

Yar Adua before he died added 231 (2007-2010)

GEJ added 20 ( 2011- 2013)

It is even more shocking that the Buhari regime bought more Aircrafts than the USA (398) despite stories of how broke we were that even warranted salient projects like the Lagos Metroline truncated . . .

It is not out of place to doubt the factual authenticity of the site with the glaring realities on ground . . . . Where are all these Aircrafts packed




P:S ==> The Shagari govt. is even credited to have bought a whooping 105 Aircrafts and 547 ships . . .

idumuose:
I heard Oyegun introduced Buhari as General Muhammadu Ribadu
Was that a sign of fatigue or what?

Oyegun should be 74years right? That's his official age o.

hadizadeezy:
if there must be an ignorant person here you should be the one, you took boko haram to far yemen and sudan and I tried letting u know their exploits which is local to me. Are u now saying cotonue is foreign to Lagos?


You are trying to be a bigot but you are yet to be tagged one.

Stop analysin a national issue same way you analyse Super Story


Full stop.

Jorussia:
the same way i am asking you now where did the federal government got the money,they used in building the school from?

mustymatic:
My friend there is nothing like that...Soldiers are ordered not to shoot while boko haram shoots...this is why u hear of the mutiny.. Many soldiers confessed, otherwise how in the hell will boko haram take over a whole Nigeria army base n an entire local government?

hadizadeezy:
LOL!

Let me educate you more on this: if you say most boko fighters are recruits from chad,niger,mali, I might believe you cos the ones that attacked damaturu sometimes ago are mostly chadians that lost their ways in the town and that was why they were caught. U now mentioning yemen! Like seriously do u know where yemen is? Has it ever occured to you that the foreign boko members caught shares boarder withg us? And if u must know must of them caught confessed that they were paid to fight and they have definite time for that.


Make pure research before making a public comment.

hadizadeezy:
where did u get this from? Paper I guess. [/b]I still see boko haram as a local terror group, [b] the main issue is the hypocrisy going in the Nigerian army, cos I know and believe if they really wants to wipe the word BOKO HARAM off Nigeria , they will.


Let's pray and hope for change.

Jorussia:
I hope you realise that the governors of the states,the almajiri is sited,can still lay claim to it,because they are responsible for both the employment and running of schools, which is more expensive than building the schools it self.
