I don't know how Nigerians expect someone who did not show simple remorse for the death of Corpers and other Nigerians in the aftermath of 2011 elections to feel their pain for 'ordinary hunger'.

A conscientious and humane leader will strive to improve the living conditions of the citizens rather than complicate it.

Opinedecandid:
No point pretending.

Well done, GEJ.

I concur 100%.

Though the ex-president hasn't told us the reason for his decision to stay away, I nonetheless think that's a smart and sensible move. Don't ever dine with serpents and chameleons. Simple.

yarimo:
That is your problem, my problem is EFCC should remember your case after your tenure.

Buhari and EFCC aren't God, so stop threatening Fayose and let the future take care of that.

The person that condemned Obasanjo to death in 1997 is no more but the Ota man is still hale and healthy today.

HtwoOw:
Even if you apply the the heads of our heroes past shall not gree for you


Eleriibu somebody

But your satanic party (APC) can beg somebody like Orji Kalu, a man under EFCC prosecution to join its fold? I think you're sick.

Besides, Fayose is not a scammer and deceiver. He won't fit into APC conmen structure.

Though I don't usually take Sanusi serious having been confirmed as a serial alarmist, the APC and Buhari must pay for taking the Emir's words on the so-called $20b 'missing NNPC money" hook, line and sinker, without confirming its veracity, and using same to rubbish Jonathan. People in this government are just shameless.

SUMMARY:

1. Contrary to the widely held belief, Niger Delta crisis is not the main contributory factor to the nation's recession since the oil sector only constitutes less than 15% of the GDP. The president and VP are wrong to always premise the economic woes on plummeting oil revenue.

2. Lopsided foreign exchange policy is substantially responsible for the lull in productive activities in the manufacturing, agriculture and other sectors of the economy which constitute the remaining 85% of the country's GDP. In other words, Buhari's economic policies are the main reasons for the recession.

3. Even if hostility in Niger Delta ceases and global oil price rebounds, it doesn't guaranty our speedy recovery from recession since our GDP growth is not mainly galvanised by oil revenue inflow.

Suurulere:


Just wish him happy birthday and leave the rhetorics.

"Stealing is not corruption."- GEJ

"President Jonathan lacked the goodwill to save."- Okonjo-Iweala

Son of Lucifer, can you just shut it up? Always twisting facts to whip up sentiments. Jonathan never said stealing is not corruption in the manner you and other mischievous elements are brandishing it and at no time did Okonjo Iweala ever accuse him of lacking the will to save. She was ostensibly referring to the governors led by Ameachi and Fashola who dragged the ex president to the Suprrme court for not sharing the ECA fund. So stop lying and be real for once. You better concentrate your venom on Buhari who claimed Abacha was not corrupt but celebrates recovery of his loot from Switzerland and other places.

Lest I forget, happy and glorious birthday to Goodluck Ebele Jonathan the architect of modern day democracy in Nigeria.

Here they go again! Can Shehu Garba tell the world why Boko Haram will choose to release 21 Chibok Girls without any ransom, yet continues to kill other Nigerians in droves via suicide bombing? Can he also tell us if the lives of Chibok girls are now important than those of Colonel Alli, 38 missing soldiers and other Nigerians murdered in cold blood by Boko haram?

For your information, stopping Boko haram from holding territory in any part of the country is never a mean feat, no militia has the power to continually occupy any territory without eventually succumbing to the superior firepower of Nigerian Military. Boko haram held sway and hoisted their flags before 2015 elections because of northern complicity including statements made by Buhari and other leaders who tagged the fight against the sect as a fight against the north. At a time during Jonathan's reign, the north was ready to wage a civil war to stop military presence in the north. They only began to realise their mistakes after power shifted in 2015 but Boko haram continues its deadly activities.

Until this govt tell Nigerians the whole truth about Chibok girls abduction and release, they would never experience peace.

But every fear expressed in the "hate speech" has manifested in Buhari's 15-month reign. They said he's a bigot and sectional leader; he has proved to be one. He was accused of been sympathetic to Boko haram, no single Boko haram leader arrested in the last one year has been prosecuted .They said he's not intellectually and economically sound; he has plunged the country into recession under one year in office. There's none of the issues raised in the so called hate speech that hasn't come to pass, so who's now vindicated?

Politicians often think all Nigerians suffer from memory loss. This shameless minister claimed he didn't engage in physical struggle with anybody during his tenure as governor in Rivers but he invaded the State House of Assembly in a commando style causing commotion and preventing lawmakers from performing their legislative functions. Amaechi is turning Rivers into theater of war just because of election while Buhari is pretending as if nothing is amiss. Let's pray APC does not pull Nigeria down because of power.

From the look of things it would take a miracle for Hilary Clinton to win eventually. The tide is massively in Trump's favour.

The moment INEC acceded to the request of National Assembly and promptly fixed the reruns for Dec 10, my instinct told me something was in the offing. Without any doubt, APC in connivance with INEC massively rigged Edo gubernatorial election. The delay all this while was to perfect the rigging of Rivers elections. Nigeria needs divine intervention from APC darkness.

WORDWORLD:
OLADD,

Can you remember precisely the date the CHIBOK GIRLS were announced to have been 'kidnapped'?

It was on the 14th of April 2014.

Can you remember what else happened on that same day?

The Nyanya bus station mega bomb blast happened on the same day. When you read through history of Democracy, the sstruggle for power at all cost. HUMAN LIVES are but a stepping stone to for those who lust for POWER. And what do they use this power for. TO OPPRESS!!!

ALL THIS CLOUDING THE AIR WITH THE PROPAGANDA OF TERRORISM IS ALL IN THE BID TO ESTABLISH AN IMPERIAL EMPIRE BY THE VAMPIRE EMPIRE, THE U.S.A. THEY SEE NOTHING IN THE SPILLING OF THE HUMAN BLOOD. ONLY FEW PEOPLE SEE BEYOND THEIR NOSE....................ITS WELL CALCULATED IN THE DIRTY GAME CALLED POLITICS. ITS ALL INTERNATIONAL POLITICS FOR CONTROL AND DOMINATION.

This documentary may interest you too title: WHY WE FIGHT. Written and Directed by Eugene Jerecki. Its a video.

Is it not curious that the same USA has been hobnobbing with a particular section of this country while neglecting others in the last two months? I am not a tribal jingoist (and would never be one) but the handwriting of their evil machinations is just too bold for those who choose to see. Nigeria needs prayers.

Paperwhite:
This is another insight to the "Chibok girls" debacle.God bless you well.

Many thanks. God bless you too.

Blue3k:


I do think they're are multiple factions like he said. How else can u explain the erratic behavior or these terrorist. During peace talks they going out killing and burning down villages.

It might be like Syria with multiple factions.

Don't be deceived. This govt has been fooling Nigerians with the tale of negotiations There is every reason to believe that officials of this govt know one or two things about Chibok conspiracy and have been trying as much as possible to convince Nigerians about its authenticity. No negotiation is going on with Boko haram. Period.

onatisi:

There are 2 boko haram factions

So Buhari's govt has been busy "negotiating" with a faction that holds the Chibok girls (in conjunction with Swiss govt) while the other faction continues to kill people at will? Don't believe those craps my friend.

Firefire:


Thank you for this wonderful post.

Posterity will surely judge all mankind.

As for those still believing in this "Evil Chibok's Script', you need deliverance.

A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes. - Charles Spurgeon.

Cheers.

wxyz1:
Thank you and God bless you. At least we still have some Nigerian who have head

God bless you too. Nigeria will only move forward when we jettison deceit and selfish political malfeasance. Using human lives for political capital is a crime against man and God.

MrsPhyno:

When I saw the whole "none of the girls were sexually abused and that baby is not a boko haram baby" statement that's when I was like..... Haba..... these people don't fear God at allllllll


I hate to sound like a conspiracy theorist but the Chibok thing sounds too much like a somewhat true, somewhat false sordid story.

Yes, you're right. A truly sordid story.

WORDWORLD:


If you really want to understand this TRAGEDY. You need to do a little FACT finding. You have to start from the alleged underwear bomber on Christmas Day that hit the HEAD LINES. Can you remember Abdulmutalib, The Nigerian boy on a plane on Christmas Day? IT WAS ALL U.S.A CONSPIRACY TO DRAW ATTENTION TO NIGERIA.

Well an eye witness in the plane had this to say. haskellfamily..nl/2011/09/colossal-deceit-known-as-underwear.html?m=1

You can search too. Noam chomsky on underwear bomber Abdulmutalib.

Also kurt haskel court statement on underwear bomber Abdulmutalib. I AM GLAD THAT YOUR EDUCATION IS NOT A WASTE. ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE GONE TO SCHOOL TO WASTE THEIR LIVES. THEY CANT THINK THROUGH A WHOLE SYSTEM.

haskellfamily..co.id/2011/09/colossal-deceit-known-as-underwear.html?m=1

Strange world. That's why God said the heart of man is perpetually evil. We all have a lot to say on judgement day. Good nite.

WORDWORLD:
OLADD. Am glad that you are among those who are not delusionalized by the BOKO HARAM saga.

What is most unfortunate about this drama is that people die a real death.

HMMM!!! ALL BECAUSE OF THE VANITIES THIS WORLD HAS TO OFFER IN SHORT SOJOURN CALLED LIFE?

Well, who says "THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT DAY"?

Well done!!! You are not a walking dead.

Well said. Honestly, I can't comprehend why people should go to such extremities all in the name power, money and fame. I don't understand why some Nigerians should waste the lives of fellow citizens for the sake of political economic and personal aggrandisement. Where is Abacha? Where is Mobutu Sesesoko? Where is Idi Amin of Uganda? Where is Solomon of the biblical days? Vanity upon vanity. All is vanity.

The worst problem with Nigeria is the people of Nigeria. No brains whatsoever.

Truth.

BankeSmalls:


Heck! Is this all you have to wish for all the potent questions up there? What a country!

Honestly, the way some Nigerians think nowadays really shows that education is not all about going to school. It's pathetic..

timeman:
I repeat , I don't give a rat ass about any stupid conspiracy. concerned Nigerians are most worried about the kids kidnapped in & beyond chibok ,the senseless killings & bombings. The VICTIMS must be protected by every means possible. They're but PAWNS who must not pay the costly price of government's inefficiencies. Bokoharam must stop, that's the message, not some dumbass' political conspiracy. Goodnews that some 30 fifth columnists in the military have been arrested recently. deal with the actors (northern oligarchs) where found guilty. Send a strong message against terrorism.
kiss the truth!

Everybody is worried about the kids but it shouldn't stop all of us from getting to the root of Chibok.

qleap2all:


Shut up if you don't have better things to say. Even Former President Jonathan can't reason this way

Too bad you don't have any meaningful submission other than this gibberish. Damn too bad.

obo389:
i really still dont get why this should still be a conspiracy.
if you have been following procedings of happenings right from when you claimed this kidnapping chibok girls issue is a scam, will it still be convenient for you sir, to also say;
our military,airforce and viligante groups that have tried in their best human capacity to have curtailed the war only to the NE and your suspicious chibok kidnapping to be scam too?
secondly, will it also be convenient for you to say that our gallant men and vigilante groups who are people's fathers, uncles, cousins, to be fathers, fiancées, grand fathers and the list is endless who have in one way lost and sacrificed their lifes in battle for you and me to be comfortable and safe wherever we are to be scam again?
have you also forgotten that the chibok issue is also part of the ongoing war in the NE?
bros, however way you wana view this issue as a conspiracy and how well you want to assume government is playing politics with it, just be aware that there's an ongoing war in the NE and patrotic lifes are been lost there on a daily basis. besides, have lost 8 guys there and i can tell you sir, its no conspiracy.

Thank you for this post. The fact that our gallant military men and women have been risking their lives (with many dying in the process) yet, can't find just one of the Chibok girls in Sambissa and environ clearly attests to the mystery of the abduction. How can regiments of soldiers comb a mapped area for more than 2 years, releasing many hostages but couldn't locate 217 humans? Think about it.

timeman:
Why are you all about displaying barbarity? where you in some subterranean cave when it was reported & confirmed that the swiss government made it happened. oh wait.. the swiss was the brain behind the kidnap hence decided to release some. get off that drugs.
kiss the truth!

That's why I said it was a local and international conspiracy.

drss2:
who knows chibokk girls scam organizers may release anoda 29 girls in few days to score political point.

The release would continue in droves till the expiration of Buhari's govt lifespan. It's a soap opera ably directed by professional montage directors.

timeman:
don't give me that crap. you're implying that the chibok kidnap was a calculated attempt, pray tell, which of the attacks was not since its inception. terrorism has always been funded & abated by the high & mighty all over the world but the question is, did the kidnap happen whether or not aided by some cabals?
kiss the truth!

This suggests you did not read through the topic before lunching into your pool of bashings. Chibok was a grand conspiracy to tarnish the image of the last administration but it doesn't take anything away from the fact that it was a script carefully orchestrated by powerful northern oligarchs who wanted power at all cost using some innocent girls. The unfolding dramas (stage managed escapes, negotiations and release) after April 14, 2014 were meant to give substance to the scam. The organisers would do anything possible to cover the plot.
