The Lagos State took initiative, took responsibility and did all it needed to do- It took both the curative and preventive approach. It sincerely and its attitude showed that it cherished the lives of all those infected and was not only committed to the prevention of the spread but also the recovery of those infected. At the end, the obvious thing was the success that was achieved, the inconspicuous thing was the fact that the State Governor was Presidential and led the the Lagos State Government in a proactive mode in comparison to its Federal Counterpart who would have gone the route of committees and inefficiency as it has done with all its crisis situations ( we have enough examples) . It was clear to us all that if Sawyer had arrived in Abuja , our miracle story would not be the same. Let the fisherman continue to use Ebola to campaign.

Acecube: bro there is nobody that hasn't made mistake.. was it not new year day of 2012 your suppose namesake gave us a nice packaged gift in the name of subsidy removal... is that not sheer wickedness even worse than Oshiomhole speaking in an angry statev( oshio was a victim of ;talk when u are angry, and u will give the greatest speech you will ever regret).. whereas Jonathan's was pre-planned, premeditated yet he gave us the worse gift ever... where did the money go to ... Otedolla and his fellow cabal embezzled it... A man of integrity stands by his word ''i will run for only one term'' the guy wants to run again.. he was choosen as the sole candidates so much for DEMOCRACY, he has the money to buy candidates now.. promising billions of naira and some other goodies for jigawa when elected (bribery at it's pick, what about other states) just to buy lamido... abegi APC for change.. even if they bad let's have them for just 4 years.. then we can choose to go back to the old soup.. we've had since 1999

I agree that ABC should be given a chance in 2015 but it should not be oshiomole because that episode with that woman shows that he should not be trusted with the highest office in the land. What if he gets angry one day and decides to sell nigeria?

kennygee: Better than Buhari if u ask me.

Somebody that tells a widow to go and die simply because she was hustling to make ends meet and feed her children?

After wasting time to read this mess littered with grammatical errors, I am convinced that you do not deserve a reply. However, I have made the needed grammatical corrections to your statement so that you may see how English sentences ought to be written. I seriously encourage you to go back to school to learn English. It is not too late

All of you that are speculating on his tribe as the most important thing should close your worm-infested mouths and shove your comments up a place where sunlight does not get to. Why can't you ask about his agenda or plans? Forget corruption and bad leadership, I swear the masses constitute a majority of the problem this country is facing. Alright regarding previous occupants of that seat, I can bet that most of you cannot name a single thing that they contributed to the community or a bill they have sponsored in the house. But you'd rather let them continue unchallenged in their position. Why? Because both of their parents are Lagosians. Imagine that your car broke down and what is most important to you is whether the mechanic that is trying to fix it is from your village even though all the previous mechanics who have tried but failed to fix it were all from your village. This politics of tribalism has led Nigeria nowhere especially under this current democratic dispensation. When military regimes used administrators from other parts of the country to rule a state, Nigeria saw more development that indigenous politicians have never been able to replicate be it at the federal, state or local level.

You should all bow your heads in shame and look to change your ways because you are enemies of progress to this country

And by the way, if the constitution says he is eligible to contest for that seat, as can be ascertained by INEC, there is nothing you can do to stop him. So look for the nearest transformer and do this country a favour by doing the needful

Chazzyboy: One year how old is pdP

You're deviating from the topic. Okupe talked about the APC disintegrating after a year. Face the topic

inaluf: If APC Survives One Year, Don’t Call Me Okupe, Presidential Aide Boasts

The Senior Special Assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, on Tuesday described the merger of opposition political parties on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as a weak association that would crumble and disappear by 2014, one year before the next general election.

So confident is he of this that during a courtesy visit to THISDAY corporate offices in Lagos yesterday, he put his father’s name on the line.
“If they don’t crumble and disappear by 2014, don’t call me Okupe,” he bragged.

Okupe’s visit to THISDAY seemed to have been a public relations stunt that was carefully arranged either when the journalists went to lunch, or after Okupe had gagged them, because no professional asked him any questions following what seemed like a one-sided lecture.

The self-described “attack lion” of President Goodluck Jonathan dismissed the view that the merger would rout the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the next election, calling the forces behind it unserious people that are incapable of causing a major upset in national politics.

“Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Maj-Gen. Mohammadu Buhari are not serious-minded people; they are going round like people dancing in a market place,” he said, defiantly. “I expect that when you post an aggregate of people of that calibre who want to run government, by now they must have a policy statement on power, agriculture and employment and not just talking about PDP leaving.

"Is it by mouth that they will run the nation? These are not serious-minded people. Can someone get your vote by using word of mouth that PDP should leave without a policy?”

Okupe was hinging his political prediction on the projection that the president's joker, which is stable electricity, is attained by 2014, the opposition would be punctured and rendered ineffective.

Specifically dismissing Tinubu, he held that the ACN chieftain has ridden roughshod over the South-west, but that Nigeria is bigger than that.

“This is their first time out in national politics; alright, and let me give you some bad news: the relevance that ACN has in Nigerian politics is that they are a Yoruba party. That is what makes them relevant in politics and by dropping that toga, the party is dead.

"They have just formed an abyss; a formless abyss that the Yoruba cannot key into. The Yoruba have always been members of a regional organisation – Action Group (AG), Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN), etc. And in any case, what are the electoral credentials of ACN? How many states have they won that they are boasting?”


In a frontal assault that suggested that the PDP is wary of the possibilities open to the opposition, Okupe described the APC as a party that is consistently unable to produce a presidential candidate from within its rank and file, saying that for the 2015 election, they are planning to recruit the Speaer of the House, Tambuwal.

“What kind of political party is that and you are taking them seriously. It is a politically defective and weak organisation, and by coming to the national stage, the wind is going to blow them open. If they don’t crumble and disappear by 2014, don’t call me Okupe,” he said.

With reference to the power reform programme, he said that the problem with the National Integrated Power Projects (NIPPs) was the amount of money that was designated for it, stating that the money was not the type entrepreneurs in the country could aggregate.

“When Jonathan came, five major problems bedevilled the power sector,” he said. “One, there was low generation capacity. Two, was that the NIPPs, which required so much money, were abandoned. Three, even if they were working, they were located in places that were impossible for gas availability. Four, there was very poor transmission capacity and five, the indecisiveness involved in the privatisation exercise.

He said that within two years, the Jonathan administration solved four of those five problems. “The NIPPs – all of them are about 95 per cent complete and there is enough monitoring to ensure that this is done.”
He pointed out the outstanding challenge was transmission capacity which is currently being addressed by the federal government.

Okupe, who also sought partnership with the media, admitted that the Jonathan administration needed help to survive.
“That is the truth. I am not hiding it. There is no government that has been more assaulted in this country. I have come to see if we can build a platform to help the country and this government.

I am not saying that you should compromise your positions; I am just saying that you should give us the chance to clarify anything that you need to clarify.

Well here we are almost a year and a half later and APC has only waxed stronger and has become a nightmare to the current administration. Its publicity secretary, Lai Mohammed, at the British parliament, very recently gave the most well thought, coherent and comprehensive address I've ever seen from a Nigerian politician

Its a shame that Nigerians have such short memories and the media did not hold him accountable. If this man made such a thuggish comment as a government official in a different country, he would have been forced to resign.

bidexmat: dey idea and intent of the artist was wat was bought, jst like u pay a motivational speaker. They both invoke a feeling that is appealing to all/some of your senses. Art is vast. This is simply post modernism.

Now this is what is called art because the skill and talent is obvious to see and appreciate. I still don't understand the value of other so-called "art" like the one below which somebody bought for $42 million!

3 pages now now? Nairalanders dey vex oo

The reason given for exonerating him of the allegations are completely unsatisfactory. Besides, when did the SSS become a court of law empowered to declare people guilty or innocent?

Keneking: Nonsense write -up

Kpele....no cry you hear

Q: I thought they said boko haram were using civilians for cover. What is the excuse for not crushing them now with extreme force?

Ans: Simply because a few conscience-less individuals are looting money for the war and Jonathan has not done anything about it. Meanwhile, Ihejirika and El-Rufai who are accusing each other of being sponsors of the group and having incriminating evidence to back their claims have not been called in for questioning as innocent Nigerians continue to die in their hundreds by the day.

This will man utd's best transfer of this window
