Politics / Re: English Translation Of The Boko Haram Leaflet Been Circulated In Kano by gaakgaba: 8:16am On Jan 21, 2012
I understand why some people find it difficult to belief this story of cannibalism. It was not in the media when it happened. The media is part of these problems.The journalists have been biased in their profession and as a result tend to manipulate most of their stories. so many of these critical events have gone unpublished. I got this information long ago from a friend who served in jos. We really need to get to the root cause of all these problems. You dont leave the disease and start treating the symptoms.

Politics / Nigeria: Targeted For Destruction? by gaakgaba: 7:36am On Dec 29, 2011
Please read to the end. This was copied from somewhere.

I won’t write about Nigeria as a journalist. I am known in Nigeria as a national security specialist with decades of experience there.


I have close personal friends at the highest levels of government and only write these few words out of deep concern.


For those reading the news about Africa, both of you, Nigeria is under terrorist attack and preparing military operations against a group called Boko Haram, an Islamic group from the North, more accurately centered in Niger, a nation to the north, a cesspool of international intrigue.

From Veterans Today’s London correspondent, a specialist on African affairs:

The article was well written and thoroughly researched although it didn’t go far enough in identifying dealing with the greed of certain establishment figures that may directly or indirectly be involved in some of the atrocities committed by Boko Haram.


1. The security of the presidency and the entire nation has been greatly compromised by the activities of certain individuals very close to the presidency.
2. It is common knowledge that the president of Nigeria is not protected at all and you can get at him at any time in or out of his residence.
3. The security around him is a joke to say the least, contrary to the views of certain individuals around the president.
4. The issues of government by settlement which had long plagued Nigeria are the orders of the day now where certain individuals are asking for colossal sums of money from certain security consultants to provide training and security equipment to the government.
5. One individual in particular has been known to collect huge sums of money from these outfits currently parading themselves as security consultants in Abuja
6. The level of cover and protection given the president and his family is simply laughable and nonexistent
Why has the country been compromised
It is widely known that certain foreign elements are providing security to the president and providing his current security details.
What a joke, you might say. These same foreign elements are the same who have sold outdated equipment to the government and are going around Abuja installing CCTV and bomb detection equipment around the capitol, technology decades old.
Huge sums of money have changed hands for second rate equipment
The government pays for a Rolls Royce car but gets a VW Beetle instead!!
Why is there so much fear and apprehension among Nigerians that the government can no longer protect its citizens?


What are the costs expended so far on security equipment and the so called security consultants?
Why have certain individuals collected bribe money to award these security contracts at over inflated figures?
Now, this is one example of several of how corruption is endemic and goes to the heart of government.
You may wonder who stands to benefit from these contracts at the expense of the security of the president, the presidency and the nation.
The answers to these questions lies within the presidency itself because of the acts of these individuals in the last few weeks.
There are no real interests to control the activities of Boko Haram because of the vested interests of certain foreign governments in collusion with their agents in the present administration and the country.
To some in government, this is another tool to control certain individuals.
Most Nigerians are cowards, anyway. [b]Kill a few “Nigerians,” “Christians” and make it look like christianity against Islam to provoke a reaction from Nigerians.[/b]If you get no reaction, kill a few more or go after prime targets to grab headlines.
Again, you may ask yourself, who stands to gain when there are terror scares in the country?
Nigerians are highly intelligent and resourceful people and can put an immediate end to all of these happenings when their own status is on the line and their livelihood is at stake or threatened.


Nigeria has not gotten to that point yet but may soon reach the point of no return.
Sources within the Intel community have confirmed that Boko Haram is getting Intel assistance from senior Nigerian intelligence officials.
To these officials, this is a means to an end.
The danger here is that a monster has been created which sooner or later may go out of control of their political masters.
Certain people are benefiting financially from the current security situation in the country, from inflated security contracts.
One such individual from within the presidency recently placed orders from a North American and Middle East country located near Tel Aviv.
What is the cost of a Nigerian life (Mr.) and how much is it worth to you sir?
This is the public version of things anyway. However, outside forces are at play, concerns “from afar” best described in a fictional context.
H. G. Wells described it best in his science fiction novel, War of the Worlds.
“No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man’s and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter…
It is curious to recall some of the mental habits of those departed days…Yet across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us. And early in the twentieth century came the great disillusionment.”
Thus, fiction again becomes reality, not an enemy from space but one of terrestrial origin, unnamed but recognized by all who see the lands laid waste.


In Nigeria, Terrorism is the Rough Version


This organization, call it “globalist” if you want, began orchestrating war in Yemen a bit ago after failing to set war against Iran into motion through incidents in Bahrain and the Persian Gulf.
The “Al Qaeda franchise” in Yemen represents an “understanding” between the current government, the CIA and Mossad to create a simulated terrorist environment as “deception and cover” for a series of other activities in the region.
There is now, nor has there ever been an organized “pan-Islamic” terrorist presence in Yemen though one has been “simulated” through misleading reports, “false flag” terror and a theatre of “counter-terrorist” activities, drone attacks and such, for no purpose other than to provide a base of operations for a global criminal enterprise.


What we are seeing now in Nigeria is part of the same strategy, one that has included attacks on a physical scale, currency manipulation and now a staged move against Africa, which will be combined with attempts to exploit the vulnerabilities of the Arab Spring, new players, new governments and new greed.
Key Nigerians ripe for bribery are making this possible. They are aware they are bringing about the destruction of their own nation, they simply don’t care. The attitude there is “every man for himself.” Another way of describing those currently in power, including and especially officials in counter-terrorism and security is “rats abandoning a sinking ship.”
In all fairness, the U.S. has a similar elitist clique of politicians, special interest multi-nationals, some of whom have their own intelligence resources that rival most countries.
The terror group, Boko Haram, is real but in its current formation, it is a proxy of outside powers who plan to Balkanize Nigeria, simply another domino to fall as have so many others.


As with any group seeking redress, Boko Haram has been hijacked and is now being directed from within, from without as is the Nigerian government that will be fighting it.
What is playing out, though all are ready to “go through the motions” otherwise, is far more about drugs than anything else. The Nigerians don’t yet know this or those hands that are out would be more aggressive.

Nigeria, a great playing field, largest in Africa, is the southern flank of an operation that is much more than simply stolen oil revenue and inscrutable games about gas pipelines that never come online.
Drugs are perfection. If you produce narcotics, you control the land, if you transit narcotics, you control the authorities, if you sell narcotics, you control the courts, the police and, of course, the government itself.


Arms and oil count, money is still worth counterfeiting, oil worth stealing but all this is so “yesterday.”
The real world struggle today is narco-driven, fought from the Kyber Pass to the Mexico-Arizona border and all lands in between. Nigerians who think “tribal” or “ethnic” will die “regional” and “global,” perhaps by the millions.
This is all little but theatre. The US bought a ticket to a play staged in Afghanistan and has found themselves unable to find the exit. This one will be quieter as this is Africa, it will be black people killing black people. Few will notice, fewer will care. Those with a stake notice, they care, but their agenda has no room for human life.


Nigeria is a tinderbox beyond imagination. Decades old hatreds and fears are closer to the surface here than even in the Balkans. This is a very dangerous game some have chosen to begin.
Were they available, and who is to say they aren’t, Nigerians would gleefully use nuclear weapons to settle domestic differences.


Nigeria, is, in itself, a construct that never should have existed. The North is Muslim, the South is Christian, each side having nearly 100 million people and neither half is united in any way.
Nigeria is a ripe plum for those who recognize such things and recognizing such things is how predators have come to dominate world affairs.
The history after colonial occupation is one of military dictatorship and corruption at levels unimaginable.


Nigeria is Africa, the most populace country, the most oil and gas wealth, the greatest economic potential, the biggest potential market. Thus, Nigeria is a target.
A note from a friend in the region choosing to weigh in with information generally not for public consumption:
“We can take down French AQIM without any problem to be honest but Boko Haram are tribes and clans, they are offered drugs, money etc… far far from Islam but at the origin it was an Islamic party infiltrated by the English, French and financed by the “narcos” linked to the CIA, DEA etc…
… who are landing their planes full of drugs in Niger, Mali, Mauritania, north of Nigeria, Chad in the desert… around 4 billions a year transit in this region…
…then up through Morocco, Polisario, Spain and then Europe and through Tunisia, Libya-Algeria border through Italy, or Greece depending which recipient networks… Ben Ali , king of Morocco, Polisario Front, Algerian zionists are deeply involved in this dirty business, same for migrants, exactly the same people… Boko Haram in charge of Nigeria up to Libya and south of Tunisia, with Touaregs…”


Saif Gaddafi - Reports Are He is in Niger With Money and Terrorist Groups


For those unaware, and those who wonder why Saif Gaddafi is where he is, those who choose to be fed the superficial view of a region maps show as only empty desert, I hope this is found to be “enriching.”
For others, it is exposure I hope they find disturbing.


Those in power know I laid out their fate. I told them when the bombings would start, what type, I was even right about the first target, exactly right. I figured what I would do and it happened.
I figured what I would do if I were the head of a foreign intelligence agency planning to take over security operations for the government by making the new president appear vulnerable, powerless and then exploiting divisions in the country in order to start two decades of extremely profitable war.


In the process, side can be played against side, crooked politicians can keep the decision making apparatus paralyzed and the country can be turned into a terrorist battleground, leading to the long awaited civil war while being bled dry.
I laid the whole thing out.


Two foreign governments are involved, I named them.
I told my friends that Abuja would soon look like Islamabad, cameras, check points, troops, that was the first part of the destabilization plan. This is being done as we speak.
Real nation building is not in the cards, only rape and destruction, debt and more debt.


I saw it done, more carefully, to the United States. It isn’t the same crew, not entirely, but many of the same actors are involved.
First they began by blocking the new president from assuming real power, buying off key political and military leaders.
Then a phony terror campaign was begun, like the one the US saw with 9/11. Then “they” arrived with solutions.
At the same time, “they,” who have been working with the terror groups for years, are building an “Al Qaeda” type organization that will be able to dart across borders and carefully orchestrate a pattern of destabilization using the same contractors that are going to be paid millions to help put in place security apparatus to protect the country.
This happened in America, in a way at least. It is a plan long in motion.


Nigerians are ripe for civil war, angry, divided, fed up with abuse.
One minor offshoot of the decision making and policy formulation we are seeing is the utter and total destruction of Nigeria’s economic and commercial viability.
It is being erased from the maps of boardrooms across the world as a potential place of business, of development, of wealth creation, from Beijing to Zurich and places beyond.
Christian Nigeria is being set up, not just to fight a “terror group” in the North but to take on all of Islamic Africa, to draw them into a war that will bring more players, America, for one, into another endless cesspool.


Yemen was the model. Simple tribal misunderstandings became tribal conflict and then, through careful orchestration, bushels of bribe money and false flag terrorism, which Nigeria has already been dosed with, Yemen became the stronghold of an imaginary Al Qaeda cell.
Soon Nigeria will enjoy the sight of armed UAVs, piloted from, just perhaps, Tel Aviv, theoretically there to punish terrorists. Pakistan will explain it to you if you care to listen.
UAV attacks are how terrorists are recruited, how wars are instigated and how the disjointed and unsettled are turned into an enemy camp. The presentations have been made and the purchase orders await only the promised “backhanders” or as we call it here, “kickbacks” to be executed.


Nigeria, I love the damned country, my friends there which include those who theoretically rule the country, if such a thing were possible. It is not.


What I did do is lay out a plan for the first hundred days that would have prevented this.
In order to accomplish this, one would have to overcome a corrupt government, meaning that one would have to assume near dictatorial powers and turn to the people, all the people, for support.
One would have to deliver on promises of electrical power, police reform, refinancing debt, so many things.


There were two choices, one was to build a nation and the other was to react and become the victim of a plot long stewing in two capitols far away.
The desire for a civil war, something so many want in Nigeria, have waited for, has allowed them, the government, the people, to become what they fear most, slaves in their own nation.
Nigeria isn’t Libya. It has a population 15 times that of Libya.
Nigeria is Africa. Saving Nigeria was vital to world stability, something only a select few know.
Destroying Nigeria was vital to world entropy, something only a select few know also. Even fewer know that Nigerian security is considered an area of “clear and present danger” to the United States, or to term it differently for others, an area of “vital national interest.”


Nigeria is America's Key Link to Africa
Our armies enjoy joint exercises yearly, Nigeria is the lynchpin of America’s African policy for the next 25 years.


The destabilization of Nigeria is part and parcel to the destabilization of America’s position in the world, one more thing making Nigeria attractive.


America has spent decades making enemies and Nigeria is a way of helping bury America as is Afghanistan. Who would wish such a thing?
Get a map and figure it out.
As we speak, planeloads of bomb detection equipment is coming in from the same people who built the car bombs in the first place. War is being planned with the help of those who organized and armed the enemy.
Enough people were there who remember it all being laid out, how it would be done. Predicting this didn’t take genius, not hardly. I had seen it all before, so many times.
The plots spoken of as against Libya are very real but Egypt and Nigeria are the primary targets, taking the place of Iran, a nation that has been more resourceful than expected.
Were it taught, which it is not, we would call it history.

@sology.Thanks so much for correcting the poster.God will continue to bless you.Some people already programmed their mindset always to criticism without resorting to facts.it is either the poster has a short memory or has failed to follow the trend of events.You cannot make an objective comments on some issues without following the trend.

@mikeansy. i am with you on this.In fact, if this was the statement made by the president,it would not have attracted so much criticism.It is logical.You attacked their base.They will definitely want to fight back.My only criticism is that the attack on their base should have come earlier than this.People should learn to make constructive criticism . I believe that all nigerians will need to be one to fight this menace.it is not easy dealing with people who are not fighting to live.

@koruji."A religion is defined by what its followers practice? Haaaaaa. If this is your line of reasoning then am afraid i dont know where to start. What is theory in all the real facts stated above?
Now go back and watch the video of the suicide bomber before the UN building attack. He could not make a single statement in english and all his statement were translated. That is a typical BH for you. The real problem is ILLETERACY.
Nobody has been able to answer this question and i will continue repeating it. Why are there no such suicide bombers in the south? Are their no muslims in the south? Even you cannot tell me that you dont have muslims around you. Please lets THINK BIG.The earlier we all come together to find a lasting solution to these problem the better for us.

@mikeansy. grin grin grin. please check your last argument and judge yourself. Did i hear you say diversionary tactics? what has that got to do with the issue on ground. Like you said, if these people are ready to kill any body to achieve their aim, does that make them muslims? Among the people that died in the UN building are muslims.Is it logical for a muslim to kill his fellow muslim? please THINK BIG.

@morufoye. God will continue to increase your knowledge for that intelligent quotes. You speak my mind. Thanks.
Politics / Re: Christmas Day: Boko Haram Bomb Catholic Church In Madalla by gaakgaba: 5:17pm On Dec 25, 2011
@mikeansy. you need to look at the fact on ground and analyse critically to be able to decode the situation on ground. If they are muslims,believe in the eid prayers and their leaders, is it logical for them to have bombed eid-ground? These are facts and may be totally different from your opinion but will never change. If you have been following the situation from the onset you would have known that these sects at a point denounce their emir. they even killed the brother to their purported leader. In as much as i agree with you on some of your points, it is clear that this is never a religious war.
Politics / Re: Christmas Day: Boko Haram Bomb Catholic Church In Madalla by gaakgaba: 4:27pm On Dec 25, 2011
Boko haram bombed and eid-ground last sallah. now churches. if you still think this is religious, think again.

@krafty-iyk. If what you have stated is anything to go by, then you have just corroborated my points. the right education has not been given to these children.nothing like that anthem in islam.Please always read carefully before responding to comments and not abuses.I will repeat some for you. why are their no such things in the south? Are there no muslims in the south? In a forum like this, you only put up your argument with facts and not abuses. i am not good at abusing people and it is sinful according to the ethics of my religion. May God help us.
Politics / Re: Christmas Day: Boko Haram Bomb Catholic Church In Madalla by gaakgaba: 1:39pm On Dec 25, 2011
What i will like you guys to know is that the war is not between islam and christianity but between the masses and our leaders.Ask me why? What is happening now is a clear manifestation of failure on the part of the past leaders to provide the right education for the people.They knew that with the education, people can see clearly and be able to challenge their govt and prevent exploitation. These so called boko haram do not have the right education. This is why they are easily brainwashed.Have you come to ask yourself why there are no suicide bombers in the south?Are there no muslims in the south. Why are they not having this kind of orientation?

As regards people calling islam all sorts of names,Islam does not preach this. It is clearly stated in the Quran that hell fire is the reward for whosoever terminates the life of an innocent soul. It is also clearly stated that hell fire and great punishment awaits whoever commits suicide. The level of thinking of these people is totally different from you and i. They do not have access to education to make them understand the religion better. most of the discoveries in science today are deep rooted in Quran. You can only understand better when you seek knowledge and see the link. Suicide bombing does not have a place anywhere in islam.

I will like you to also watch your utterances in this forum. i read someone"s comment saying Bleep Allah. Let me tell you now that Allah is just another language for God. its just like saying Bleep God in another person language.

These are my observations with facts. i will welcome any constructive criticisms and appreciate comments that can add value and increase my knowledge not just to you and i but to other silent observers on nairaland.

Politics / Re: Anti-Gay Bill: “Go Back To School” Soyinka Tells Nigerian Legislators by gaakgaba: 8:00am On Dec 19, 2011
The fact that this is coming from wole soyinka does not make it right. It will be totally fallacious for any human to think that way.I think the law of diminishing return has started setting in for the man. If not he ought to know that gay marriage will definitely have a multiplier effect on the society in the long run if not curbed at the earlier stage. This is Africa with its own peculiar culture.The constitution should be a reflection of the culture. NO CULTURE IN NIGERIA SUPPORTS GAY-MARRIAGE. How our families are managed determines what becomes of the society in the future. If each family is properly managed then the society will be a better place for us all. The bill has been passed. There is nothing you can do about it sir. if you talk from now till tomorrow,it doesnt change anything sir. That is the way we want it.

Spiritually, have you come to think of the reason why we have frequent cases of natural disaster in other continents and none in africa? The atrocities committed daily in some countries in the name of freedom is on the high side. This is the reason why God destroyed one generation in the bible and the quran and some people still have reasons  to support it. This is unimaginable.

Logically, the ratio of female child to male child is increasingly skewed in favour of female (recently 7:1). It will be a total selfishness for a rightful thinking person to support gay marriage. What happens to the excess number of women in the future. Prostitution? Idleness?. The professor should please look into the future or go back to school to learn that.

Politics / Re: President Jonathan Wishes Buhari A Happy Birthday by gaakgaba: 2:04pm On Dec 18, 2011
@Lovine. Very Good question. In my quest for knowledge,i have come to realise some similarities between islam and christianity one of which is the fact that you are not to judge anybody. Only God knows who is truly serving him. You may be an imam or a pastor but what you do with your private life might be different from your posture.Only God knows everything about each individual. The important thing is the laid down rules which you must follow not only to earn reward but also for you to have a fulfilled and sound life.
Politics / Re: President Jonathan Wishes Buhari A Happy Birthday by gaakgaba: 1:39pm On Dec 18, 2011
@Lovine.I expected you to read between the lines before making comments. All the features i listed are some of the teachings of islam as embedded in the holy book. They are part of the rules you must follow for you to be a muslim. Anything contrary to that does not make you a muslim. This is just to let you know that islam is not just a religion but a way of life.FEASIBLE Fasting has been embedded in islam before science discovered its benefits to human body. Same with physical exercise in 5-times prayer i mentioned earlier. Drinking water and its benefits to the body has been in islam long ago before the discovery by science.Washing some part of your body(ablution) 5-times daily and its health consequence has been part of islam since its birth. These are facts and not the rains of abuses and curses you stated above. Those curses you stated above does not change the facts even if you are ignorant.

@Austin.May God in his infinite mercy forgive you with this your utterances. One thing i am sure of is that you are neither a muslim nor a Christian with these utterances because no religion preaches these. You need to have a sound knowledge about something before you can make a meaningful comments or criticism.
Politics / Re: President Jonathan Wishes Buhari A Happy Birthday by gaakgaba: 9:36am On Dec 18, 2011
@passionate88. As a good muslim, you dont drink,smoke and humanize which go a long way in giving you a sound health. More importantly, the 5 time daily prayers is a very good form of exercise for your muscles and joints which is very essential to the body.there are other reasons but will not like to mention because thats not the topic of discussion. So you tend to live a good life as a GOOD muslim.

You dont believe in european ranking but you believe in their theories and inventions. SEE BOKOHARAM in another form.
If you are really pissed off with federal schools and their products, you need to get out of this thread and stop using nairaland because the founder of nairaland graduated from federal school(IFE).he graduated just recently.

Now get this into your head,in 2007 & 2008. CU came to observe SIFE(students in free enterprises) national competition which institutions in Nigeria participated. IFE( a federal sch) won the 2 editions and came 2nd and 3rd respectively in the world cup amidst best universities in the world (google it). This is just one of the criteria that influence ranking my brother. No vex but the fact is always there even if you are sad about it.You talk of past glory. IFE as an instance founded most law faculty in most universities and are being presently consulted to establish LAW and medicine in CU. You even argue facts and you fail to know the difference between what is and what ought to be. sorry!!!

Education / Re: Is University Of Ibadan Any Better Than Covenant University? by gaakgaba: 8:24am On Nov 16, 2011
@all.The essence of going to a university is not just to get a good grade but to come out with value added in different areas. At the end of the day, you are changed person because you lived closely with different people from different background. You must have learnt a whole lot of lessons and your interpersonal relationship with people is improved.You understand people better and why they behave the way they do.Private universities are not priviledged in this area. You will agree with me that what gives you a job cld be your grade, but what keeps you in that job is your attitude and interpersonal relationship which also determines most things in life. Look at how poster([b]a convenant graduate) introduced the topic. This depicts his kind of character. Now another BIG QUESTION BEGGING FOR ANSWER. [b]Can a graduate like poster be a good leader?
This is because as a leader you lead different kinds of people with different background. Never feel sorry for him as this must have manifested in his own life and and he should be getting the results now. This is what our leaders have caused by isolating their children and the result is products like ABDULMUTTALLAB and the poster.Neimesis is already catching up with them. So sad indeed!!!!

If you are now a graduate, you must have wasted your time beyond normal not to know that the number of nobel laurates produced is one of the key criteria in ranking universities. Did i hear you say nobel laurates a man-imposed title? Gosh!!! So i have been wasting my time since embarassed

@ all. it is a total waste of time to be debating this type of topic. CU with UI? compare the products. how many years will it take CU to produce a nobel laureate.Check the ranking and the criteria. Dont forget that most of these CU graduates tried endlessly to gain admission to federal universities but failed because they are too dull. so u should expect something like this. See the structure they display. can this stand the test of time like the ones you have in UI,IFE? only time will tell.Dont forget the fact that CU is a one man business. In our elementary economics, the death of the owner in a one-man business could mean the end of the business. I graduated from OAU and am proud to be associated with the products and lecturers from the institution: professor wole soyinka, bisade ologunde(lagbaja), Abike Dabiri, olorunibe mamora, the Late gani Fawehimi, cant just continue to name names. The big Questions. WHO ARE YOUR LECTURERS?

@sartorious. You need to change your orientation. I wonder why some people have closed their eyes to positive change and will always criticise no matter what.Y did oyinlola fail to achieve something like this. The initiative alone is something to commend because the result is there for everybody to see and it directly affect the masses. While some other states are complaining of impossibilities and inadequate fed. govt allocation, he is able to come up with something positive despite the constraints.  PLEASE USE YOUR HEAD NOW.

True, the guy was misguided. But there are many like him in waiting to become suicide bombers up north may be south too. The social economic situation created by Nigerian leaders over the years is very conducive for terrorism and other violent crimes to grow.
For the muslim haters, another good opportunity to bash Islam is here and already they are having a feast. Note, hatred does not cure hatred. The guy that committed terror lived on hatred just like you venting pent up hatred of Islam right now. Actually, hatred ultimately destroys the hater.
It is better we become objective in our comments and be just to one another not to commit same sin we blame others.

Islam does not sanction killing of innocent people whether muslims or not. This fact we made clear to those willing to listen and are unbiased. The acts of a few misguided muslims is not the act of the entire muslim faithfuls.Peace.

@angello234. You left nigeria to south africa all in the name of quality education and you have remained worse off. Take a look at what you wrote. You think by the time you are back employers will be carried away by the fact that you schooled abroad? you are just wasting your time, energy and money.

Hmmmmm. I forsaw this before now. This problem started right from the time he signed the wage increament. Where do you think the money will come from?If Budget is simply planned expenditure financed by expected income, how do you expect the increase in minimum wage to be financed.Even before the wage increase, the recurrent expenditure covers more than 75% of the budget leaving very little for capital expenditure. With this, please tell me how a meaningful development can take place in the country. Aside that,
look at the people who constitute the committee.Can you please name just one of them that represent the masses. Zanith Bank is only known for high networth clients while Access only opens branches in areas where they can cover coperate clients and not retail clients.

There is serious problem in this country.

@phreakbit & sucnif. U had better wake up to reality. I nearly shed tears wen i first came to zambia and found out this.  Thats the state of our nation.
Politics / Re: Zambian Firm To Purchase Nigerian Power Companies by gaakgaba: 12:17pm On Oct 04, 2011
I was happy to hear this news.I have been in Zambia for close to 2months now and i only experienced power failure once(3hours).

The company in question is one of the major power distribution company here in zambia.Forget the useless giant of africa thing o. i still

cant believe my eyes that zambia of  all countries will have a better and stable power supply than Nigeria. All things being equal, i am

pretty sure that this company will perform well if given the chance to operate.
