APC will divide this country and by GOD, i hope it will be soon.
The efforts of the PDP to create an undivisible Nigeria albeit faulty will all be undone by these APC megalomaniancs.
I wish them God's speed.

Her husband has achieved more locally and internationally in politics than Ojukwu and Azikiwe combined.

#Silly IPOD Abobaku.

You are very stupidd.
The zik of africa who founded your useless Nigeria, confronted the brits became your first president just like washington and created some of africa's best philosophical thoughts in gpvernance is now compared with tribal APC politicians lke tinibu?
Bloody sycophantic nitwit. Apc tout.

Decapo:
Biafra

You think you are being jestful.
What you are doing is creating a biafran consciousness in igbos , which i know is the last thing you want to do.
You are doing Nnamdi kanu's work for him.

.

wow

This is the same this day newspapers that some yoruba APC dimwits said was anti-buhari and pro-igbo.
Thisday would soon release a scathing anti-buhari article and then we would all watch these APC dimwits pour baseless accusations on them.

princessdairies:
guy,thevoice is right..quit arguing

According to your pea sized head.

wiseoneking:
that one is the only thing that is sweatening your belle. Vanguar pdp igbo paper? Lol

Don't mind them .
Though vanguard can release rubbish articles like this one, i would still take their authenticity and reliability over backward oluwole yoruba newspapers like the nation, sahara reporters and the ridiculous osun defender.

wiseoneking:
Yes oh, Amechi for president, fashola for vp and elrufai for senate pred. Iti mpotor!

In your dreams.
You think the north takes APC politics above regional interests?

theV0ice:
Whom do you take serious then??

You regard Vanguard (a pro GEJ and PDP paper) as arm chair journalists. Now you regard the man who highhandedly gifted GEJ the vice presidency and presidency as a bitter old man?

Anyway, they're both having fun at the moment. While GEJ was supervising elections in Tanzania, OBJ was supervising his in Ivory Coast.

Na their problem

Vanguard is not a pro-GEJ paper. They have produced some of the most scathing articles against GEJ during his administration.
OBJ said GEJ was training snipers against his enemies. Where are those snipers today?
Why haven't OBJ unravelled them via his closeness to the buhari administration? And this was the same OBJ that was planning an unconstitutional third term. A stark anti-national interest if there ever was one.

tinsel:
Your are ignorant

According to a Nigerian.

ThisMeansWars:
dude ... They are not that good and they have been in power more than any tribe or region in the country .. Are you kidding? Smh

Are you blind? Can't you see how rubbish the north is?
Are you not seeing the level of poverty and deprivation in the north? What of the over 10 million almajiris with no possible future.
Poilitics in Nigeria is not for the best. That is why this country is a shitthole.
The regional bloc with the highest number of states, and the highest number of child voters wins.
That is the sad truth.

QuotaSystem:
In case you didn't realize, all politics is local. I guess you don't know the first Mayor/Governor of Enugu was a Fulani man named Umaru Altine.

You Ibos are completely clueless about politics. Check your history.

Ofcourse, i know this. Unfortunately i don't see how this changes my point.
You only end up proving igbo penchant for meritocrity.
The so-called local politics of the north is built on an over-bloated parasitic state system and national assembly representation.
Child voters are now the main stay of political power.
Talk of true federalism and national restructuring and the north goes on the defensive.

theV0ice:
You mean you never heard about the ''legend of the 5 presidents with GEJ as the weakest''?

Also you didn't mention that Amaechi would also build railways. Do you know how much a single railway coach costs?

Sorry, i don't take ramblings of a bitter old man serious.
The same '' weak'' GEJ has replaced him as the icon of democracy and governace in africa.

ThisMeansWars:
okay agreed then ...

So why do Igbo's shout marginalization when we simplybhave the best politicians from north and south west ... Why not accept that politics is north and sw thing and support whoever is there the way everyone supports ibos when it comes to football?

The founding father of Nigeria was Nnamdi azikiwe.
He was the most influential in getting independence and creating a Nigerian nation. When the north wanted the British to continue, it was Nnamdi azikiwe that discouraged them.
In the first republic of the 60s, where there was a bit of merit, Nigerian politics were dominated of sorts by igbo politicians.
It was the civil war that changed things and the igbos had to begin afresh relinguishing political power to the SW.
The current politicians of especially northern heritage are definitely not that good. We can see how much they have destroyed Nigeria.
They can't even adequately educate their own people.

QuotaSystem:
I'm glad you realize this, so why are Ibos complaining about political appointments?

Who wan hawk gala for dem? Who wan smuggle drugs for them? Who wan dey impregnate dem sister carry do baby factory for them? Wetin una sabi for politics wey una dey find post?

Leave Chike for makate before them carry fake streetlight full Abuja

If you believe you have better politicians and technocrats than the SE, then you are seriously deluded.
Give me three northerners in american or UK politics. More like finding a needle in a hay stack.
Can you compare the standard of living with the north and the SE? What of the MDGs actualization?

ddippset:
e pain am!

That is the sum total of your existence.

theV0ice:
How many ministers of transport have we had that since return to democracy that supervised Aviation also?

Even Stella Oduah as Minister of only Aviation was regarded as an alternate president more powerful than Jonathan. Now you have Amaechi combining ministry of Transport and ministry of Aviation under ministry of Transportation and you're working hard to belittle it? fear God small na

Infact, Did you regard Olusegun Aganga who held ministry of trade and investment under GEJ as a super minister?

When was stella oduah regarded as an alternate president? It was jonathan that fired her afterall.
I am not belittling anything. It is an important portfolio but let us not take it too far. You are doing amaechi a disservice if you give him undue responsibilities.
As a minister of transport,he is mandated to renovate airports, build new ones where necessary, and then manage the NPA and its revenue generations, and also aviation revenues. That is basically all.
The more important duty of roads and rail construction falls under fashola's ministry of works.

A sport like archery is specially fitted to the north and is played at the commonwealth and olympics.
I am surprised that the NSC has not taken it serious.

ThisMeansWars:
oh so there are no northerners with enough merit to be in the under 17 team ... Shiiiiiit .. Hypocrites everywhere ...

Those northerners buhari put there didn't get their on merit right ... It merit when it favors Igbo... Its marginalization when it doesn't ...gerarahia

My friend, stop deceiving yourself. Even the most ardent fulani would tell you Nigeria's best footabllers are in the east, just like Nigeria's best table tennis players are from the west and the best polo players are from the north.
When it comes to team sports, then the east is where you should go for talents. That is the truth.
Ofcourse, there are probably be some very talented northern footballers, but the overwhelming talent comes from the east, so it is not surprising if there are no northerners in the team.
If Nigeria had a polo team, ofcourse, i would expect it to be dominated by northerners. I wouldn't raise too much objection, if all the players were from the north even though we may some have some talented polo players in the east.

ThisMeansWars:
every region is represented in yemi telas team ... Its the perfect quota system team .. Which shows that Yoruba's are not bigot ..

It seems you don't know the difference between marginalization and merit.
The igbo footballers got there on merit. If northern footballers are better, nobody would have any problem with them dominating.
I am sure you can't say the same for our politics where undeserving people dominate.
You can't tell me that fulani/northern domination of our politics is on merit. That would make your thread even more ridiculous.

theV0ice:
You should have the grace to admit that Levinus Nwabughiogu who wrote this report is far more knowledgeable than you are on this matter else Vanguard would have consulted you.

Transportation which now supervises Aviation employs a sizeable chunk of Nigerian civil service and a number of cash cows which Nigeria desperately needs now because of crash in oil prices. It has the following MDA's, Agencies and parastatals under it

Water Ways


1. Nigerian Port Authority (NPA)

2. Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, NIMASA

3 . National Clearing and Forwarding Agency (NCFA)

4. Nigeria Shippers Council (NSC)

5. Nigerian Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA)

6. Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC)

7 Nigerian Institute of Transport Technology (NITT)


Aviation:
1. Federal Airport Authority Of Nigerian (FAAN)

2. Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA)

3. Nigeria Air Space Management Agency(NASMA)

4. Accident Investigation Bureau (AIB)

5. Nigerian College Of Aviation And Technology (NCAT)

6. Nigeria Meteorological Agency (NMA)


Land Transportation

1. Nigeria Railway Corporation

2. Federal Road Safety Commission

Now mention one ministry bar Power, Works and housing that has as much?

My friend, Nigerian journalists are arm chair journalists.
Btw, amaechi is not the first minister of transport we are going to have. Nobody call them super-ministers in the past because they are not.
It is an important portfolio alright, but nothing super about it.
Infact right now, the super ministry is the ministry of trades and investment and then fashola's 3-in-1 portfolio. It baffles me that no one is talking about it.
Nigeria right now is in dire need of some solid investments and cash inflows. It is the ministry of trades and investments that would see it happen.
I think vanguard is trying to put the pressure on amaechi.

Ballmer:
Delusional oaf, do you expect me to kiss your igbotic ass while you run your uncouth mouth over Nigeria ? The least I can do is be considerate which is evident in my comment.

Nigeria will not lick Igbo ass because you are crying victim. Igbo will instead get their ass wiped if they bite more than they can chew.

Get their ass wiped by who?

Amaechi a super minister? If amaechi is a super minister, then what is the minister of trades and investment that is probably Nigeria's most important appointment at this point in time.?
Heaping coals of fire on amaechi's head, innit?

You would never Ngenenkwenu on threads like this. Serious threads that require reasoning.
Open a buhari praise singing thread and he/she would jump in immediately and take over.

Nigerians are very stupidd or are these online warriors bring paid by the APC?

asha80:
enelamah is trade and investment

I haven't seen him in any list. That is the one of the most important portfolios and nobody is talking about it.
No single thread about it on the frontpage.
BTW, If that is the case, i hope he knows what he is doing. I wouldn't advise him to leave his job for the Nigerian ministerial appointment.
Not everybody would be as lucky as NOI.

imiski:
so na transport dem gve Amaechi afta all d APC e thugs clam dat Dy would make him minister for Niger Delta. with dat he would deal with Wike...... Hahahahaha

It was a smart move on buhari's part.
I expected him to give amaechi minister for niger-delta like the vengeful man buhari is.
Wike would so batter him in niger-delta politics.
Smart move by buhari keeping amaechi away from the niger-delta. I must have over-estimated his capacity for stupiditty.

Kemi that shallow greenhorn is the minister of finance? And she is supossed to do a better job than NOI.
Enemelah is absent. Very good.
Just stay away from this govt before they ruin your hard built reputation.

sammyj:
PDP is once dead and will remain dead forever. RIP to PDP !!

And yet they are giving your president a bloody nose at the national assembly.

They are rookies in third world politics of shameless and immoral compromise, selfishness, and tribal herdsmentality.
