Politics / Re: Ruben Abati Again! Says Jonathan’s Critics Over Salami's Removal Are "dumb" by Ogingin: 10:42pm On Sep 01, 2011
In a certain African country a staunch critic of the President was appointed a Minister and the complaints stopped. When a journalist asked him why he stopped talking , he replied "All over the world, it is bad manners to talk while "eating"

Politics / Re: Let Us Put Our House In Order, Says Obasanjo ! by Ogingin: 5:01pm On Aug 26, 2010
I think our so called leaders since independent always hanged their brains and strategies at the gate of the presidential villas (Dodan barrack or Aso rock) and put it on only after leaving office. Obasanjo should please go and bury his head in shame for having the opportunities in this world to make this country as a model for all black race and not only in Africa but he allowed them to filter away as a result of greed and arrogance. May God saves Nigeria from these fake leaders.

I hope they will be able to sustain this tempo for a very long time and not run out of steam like the others before them. The station is appealing with clear picture like the legendary CNN kiss kiss

Politics / Re: Paying Taxes by Ogingin: 7:48pm On May 19, 2008
My brother it is a good thing to pay tax apart from being a civic resposibility as a good citizen to pay your tax. Our govt at the centre is not interested in taxation as a vital source of income because oil money dey yanfu yanfu and Nigerian have no moral right to question them, that is, what they are doing with oil money because it is a God given no sweat, unlike tax income which is from oniru and oniyo stuff and that is one of the reason why we are not developed. That is why you can see a country spending close to $16bn on electricity and yet we are still buying petrol and diesel to power "I better pass my neigbour" generator every night at a cost of between N500 to N1,000 which we should have been used for Tax payments.

Some of these developed countries earn 90% of their income from taxation including Norway who is an oil producing country like Nigeria but which is not cursed by its oil. We can see them developed rapidly and there is what is called "accountability and morality" on the part of their leaders because every of their citizens have contributed their own share through tax and therefore, they have moral right to question their leaders as to where and what are they doing with their money.

I pray one day our govt we begin to issue cheques to all of us from part of proceed of oil money and keep the rest as tax may be the situation will change then.

I salute the efforts of Lagos State on the their tax drive and I pray they will suceed, let us encourage them through this we can have moral right to ask them at the the begining of the year what they do with the one collected last year, then they will be able to give account and this we reduce waste and corruption.
Foreign Affairs / Re: Boycott South Africa! Boycott Dstv, Mtn Etc! See What They Did To Your Brothers! by Ogingin: 6:12pm On May 19, 2008
Hmm!!!  cry what is happening in SA now to Nigerians or any blacks whatsoever is rather unfortunate, these same people that we all fought to librate not long ago (about 18 years) can now turn around to kill us, what an irony. I 'm appealing to President Ubeki and other well meaning people of SA to call their dogs to order and stop this madness immediately.

I know Nigeria, giant without head, is not going to do anything because many of our looters sorry rulers are said to invest their loots in this country thereby causing their citizens to leave Nigeria and seek greener pasture at the expense of their lives. One thing I know for sure is that the blood of these people are on their heads whether they like it or not. cry
