When APC hired Obama lobbyist in 2014, it was in order àbí? Hypocrisy. Pàṣán tí a fi náà ìyálé....
Whatever happened to the killer party's slogan of "buy naija to grow naija"?

Paying over thirty million naira for a job you people claimed to have completely executed for him. Yesterday it was Dubai, today this. What are we to expect tomorrow.

I can hardly wait for the election to come and go. Na suicide go sure pass for some of these pdp fanatics.

Buhari is not the reason why your destiny and that of your family has been wasted. I guess if not for his 30k npower money, you won't be able to subscribe your phone.
That is the truth. Some of these hateful shrills have absolutely nothing to go by in life, yet they see folks lavishly spending that which was meant to have made their lives meaningful from yesteryears, and still come genuflecting before them.

I'm sure when their hopes are dashed once more, they'd resort their useless shouts of biafra or death.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has hired Brian Ballard, a top US lobbyist, ahead of the 2019 elections.

The influential lobbyist has President Donald Trump as one of his clients. Politico Magazine, a top publication in the US, says Ballard is closer to the US president than perhaps any other lobbyist in town.

“He’s parlayed that relationship into a booming business helping clients get their way with the Trump administration — and his clients and even some of his rivals say his firm has a better grasp of what’s going on in the West Wing than almost anyone else,” the magazine said in a report.

“Ballard was one of the top fundraisers in the country for Trump’s campaign and continues to raise millions for his reelection campaign. Wiles, one of his top lieutenants, ran Trump’s campaign in Florida and delivered the nation’s biggest swing state to the president.”

Documents seen by TheCable showed that Nigeria’s main opposition party has agreed to pay $90,000 (N31.5m) to Ballard on a monthly basis throughout the duration of the contract.

TheCable understands that the contract which was signed on September 21, 2018 is for a year, meaning Ballard would rake in close to N400 million from the deal.


Ballard with Trump at a fundraising ceremony
“This contract is entered into between the Peoples Democratic Party of Nigeria (“the Client”), Plot l970 Michael Okpara Street, Wuse Zone 5, Abuja, and Ballard Partners, Inc. (“the F irm”), 601 13th Street NW, Suite 450N, Washington, D. C. 20005,” the agreement read.

“This agreement shall automatically renew for successive one-year periods on the anniversary of the effective date of the agreement unless either party terminates the agreement. Upon renewal this agreement may be terminated within thirty (30) days written notice by either party.

“Duties of the firm. It shall be the Firm’s duty to consult with the Client and advocate on its behalf those issues the client deems necessary and appropriate before the US Federal government. Issues and objectives may include, but not be limited to, enhancement of US Nigerian relations; strengthening and advancing democratic values and the rule of law in Nigeria, with a special focus in the coming months on maintaining political and security conditions free of intimidation and interference in order to ensure the success and fairness of Nigeria’s national election for president in 2019. It shall further be the Firm’s duty to inform the Client of developments in legislation and policy relevant to the Client’s issues and objectives.


The master strategist
“It shall be the Client’s duty to provide the Firm the information necessary to best represent the Client. It shall also be the Client’s duty to timely compensate the Firm for its services.

“Compensation. The Firm shall receive from the Client $90,000 a month, payable in quarterly installments for this agreement, plus the reasonable costs associated with the representation, including but not limited to, necessary registration fees; and travel expenses.”

Osita Chidoka, a former minister of aviation, signed the contract on behalf of the PDP.

This report comes two weeks after Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the party, led PDP stalwarts to Dubai for a strategy meeting.

I don't know how true is this report but news from "the cable" appears to be authentic most times.

Back to topic, I told someone that PMB is a colossal failure but Atiku is not only a serial loot but a hardened criminal. His desperation stinks and clearly shows what he aims to achieve by looting the nation's wealth to nothing.

In short, majority of these wicked politicians deserve to die. The poor masses are begging for paltry minimum wage of 30,000 but these idiots choose to settle for 20k when neighbouring countries earn up to 40k and to mention not being part of OPEC body should be a huge slap on our government.

The looting ongoing in APC/PDP can't be phantom. I wonder what will be left for future generation when oil becomes useless. I even read it somewhere that the current NNPC boss failed to remit 91 trillion not even billion to FG account since 2016. What a shame!

Imagine paying someone USD 90k per month for the wicked ATIKULOOT to manoeuvre his way to power and somehow get pardoned by the US team to clear his charges.

I really don't pity these politicians but the stvpid Nigerian youths and shameful elders shouting Sai Baba and Atikuobi. Am done telling people neither PMB/ATIKU can fix the economy but trust some people will say let's settle for the lesser evil. Na una sabi. I can't wait to leave this country. Am done believing there is hope here.

The difference is, Buhari was rich enough to fund his campaign. We know where the monies came from

We also know tho majorly fund PDP presidential campaigns and you don't expect such a man not to recoup his monies if he wins

So where did all that money come from? What work does Aisha do? You just indicted her without knowing. So because she is the President's wife and not an elected officer, gives her the right to steal our money through her lifeless husband?
