Does it mean that uche ogah being wealthy translates to him being a better Governor?
Rochas okorocha was stupendiously wealthy before becoming governor of Imo state and many thought by now imo state will be a better state than what it is today.i guess he should just face his business like dangote is doing and leave politics atleast he can still contribute immensely to the society .
Okorocha stupendously wealthy? Another exaggeration! Owing banks before becoming a governor cannot translate to being stupendously wealthy.

Nowadays, only few people make international calls due to the presence of Over-the-top (OTT) plays like Whatsapp, Skype, Wechat, Facebook, Viber and IMO. This caused a global revenue loss of $386 billion, from 2012 to 2018 for the telecoms operators. Hence, MTN, Airtel, GLO and 9Mobile are lamenting, urging the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) to intervene and stop OTT services .
In opposition to this, I suggest that OTT plays should be left alone, because we s buy data from the Telcos to access services like WhatsApp, Skype, etc. While they are lamenting losses from voice/video calls, they are, on the other hand, jubilating from excess gains they make from data.
You dey mind them? Their data that even zaps in minutes. They are reaping Nigerians off! This exploitation got to stop. However, 9Mobile still remains the best in the usage and subscription for data if you do not mind the marginal high cost of their data compared to other networks.

With government money abi in the name of constituency project
Dino Melaye is more foolish than I thought he was. Youthful exuberance is worryng him, walahi. He is simply not fit to be a member of the highest law making body in the land. He obviously behaves like a child. What he has displayed here by posting those pictures online shows how childish he is. An unfortunate show-off, I must say.
three: Okay People doesn't sound or look like we're heading anywhere..
Let's have a Referendum Already.!!!
The threats against ethnic groups against other ethnic groups and state actors against citizens are on the increase.
There are subtle moves to contain freedom of speech under the guise of 'controllling' hate speech.
Before it is too late Nigerians Must put pressure on their elected representatives in the National Assembly (http://saharareporters.com/2016/04/13/saharareporters-publishes--information-nigerian-lawmakers) To Urgently A t Resolution on the Immediate Convening of a Referendum where Nigerians can indicate their Choice of these three options.
1. RESTRUCTURING: I agree that Nigeria should be restructured along Federal, Regional and Local Government lines.
2. BIAFRA: I the creation of the sovereign state of Biafra.
3. STATUS QUO: I vote that the Status Quo remains
PS. The National Assembly might also be advised to amend the number of days a President can be away from duty so as to prevent a reoccurrence of this unsavoury situation.
We cannot and should not as a Nation be dragged back to the days of absolutist undemocratic government ed by a few.
The Constitution should be amended as you suggested.

If he had addressed these above mentioned issues in his speech,I'm cork sure you would have had another "7 things Buhari failed to address" list ready...Clowns.
Someone came back on Saturday evening,that broadcast was done yesterday night according to Vanguard and the geniuses in Nigeria expect him to have so much information at his disposal already...Na wa o
Was he compelled to address Nigerians a day or even two days after his return? There is more to that hurried broadcast than meets the eye!
fakeprophet:
and some people are agitating for youth to take over.... obviously we are not ready
Yahaya Bello is a misguided youth who suddenly found himself in Government House. It is now obvious that the young man was not not prepared to govern the State. He is a mistake that befell the people of Kogi State.
seunlayi:
Thanks, I can't be stressing my ears for this traditional and customised broadcast.
@poster above me, why are you making the fear of kanu to turn you to something else? Is it only kanu he was referring to? What of the Arewa boys that gave ultimatum to the Igbos, what about Adeyinka son that also issued out a treat?
Well, that is the result of the president speech, This is why We need a speech that will actually make us know that change is here, that will touch every aspect of our social, economic, political, etc A speech to make us know that our president is back after over 100 days leave. A speech that will make many to forget their breakfast......
The speech is uninspiring. That notwithstanding, the unity of Nigeria is not negotiable. Kanu and other militants, separatists, agitators or by whatever name they are called should take note of that part of the President's speech.

He bought a keke and built in solar power. Stop saying he built keke.
Yet he tried nah. It ain't easy. Besides, it took him months to convert the tricycle from petrol powered machine to solar. Got no business again with PMS.
When is the guy's case coming up again? Thought he was granted bail on health grounds. All these waka waka from one Eastern State to another defeats the purpose of the bail condition.
Zimbabwe’s first lady Grace Mugabe has told South African officials that she hit 20-year-old Gabriella Engels with an extension cord in an act of self-defence.
Mugabe claims she was in fact the victim in the attack that happened last Sunday in a flat in Sandton. This allegedly took place in the presence of numerous body guards.
South African news website – iol.co.za reports:
This is according to highly-placed sources privy to the case.
“Mugabe is adamant on the issue of protecting herself because she feels she was attacked.
She says she was attacked by the victim and that she also has her own injuries which she is not going to publish in the media,” said one source.
The assault, which happened last Sunday has Zimbabwean and South African officials scurrying behind the scenes to try to defuse what has become an embarrassing international incident that has brought the diplomatic relations between the two neighbours under intense scrutiny.
Engels claims Mugabe assaulted her after she found her with her sons, Robert jr and Chatunga Bellarmine.
But it appears that the pair, known for their high-rolling lifestyles, also faced their mother’s wrath that night.
“People are not talking about the fact she did the same to her kids. She beats her kids too,” the source said.
Engels received cuts and bruises and had to crawl out of the room to escape, she claimed. She said that Mugabe’s bodyguards stood by and watched.
Since the attack, civil rights organisation AfriForum, has decided to represent Engels and the “Bulldog” advocate Gerrie Nel has taken the case and is hoping to get the Zimbabwean first lady in the dock, despite government’s fears of diplomatic fallout.
When asked why Mugabe didn’t open a police case against Engels, the official said that Mugabe didn’t see it that way. The official explained how the incident had placed the SAPS in a predicament.
“Yes, clearly it was a difficult situation, a predicament because it was a high-profile matter and all the things came colliding. It was a mad house, and we had to ensure we don’t break the international law on how to treat important delegates. In cases like this, you want to collect all the information from all sides.”
The first lady is apparently still holed-up in South Africa and is waiting for the Department of International Relations and Co-operation (Dirco) to issue her diplomatic immunity. Then she can leave.
If this happens, this will be the second time that Mugabe has used this legal loophole to escape prosecution.
In 2009, she was given diplomatic immunity by the Chinese after she allegedly assaulted a journalist in Hong Kong.

tunjijones:
After 105 days. The buhari I see in pictures is not strong enough to rule Nigeria. If he has integrity as his followers claim the right thing for him to do is to resign.
A President stayed out of the country for 105 days and some people are carrying on as if everything is normal! Sense fall on them.
PS712:
Thank God for his life. It surely must be a great struggle for him. Everyone enjoying good health should just thank the almighty and keep being optimistic, life is full of mysteries.
Going by PMB's pictures, sincerely I doubt he'll be strong enough for the rigours of presidency in Nigeria of today.
Not to worry. He will be cocooned in Aso Rock as usual and come out only on Fridays to attend Jumat prayers.
London is now the headquarters of Nigeria, or more appropriately put, the new capital of Nigeria. The President receives emissaries and dignitaries at Abuja House, London. Nigeria is doomed as a country. Too bad.

that person saying just $1m, abeg what's your bank balance
Imagine? So, $1m is just, eeh? Real Americans do not blow their money away like that! That dude is wasteful, have always been. But he woks hard for his money though and parties hard as well.
PHILipu1:
.
Go buy sense Mr man.
We voted for a ticket that had Buhari/osinbajo,we don't have problem with who ever is incharge now.
And who are the We? You can only speak for yourself and not for everybody. You may be comfortable with the situation of the country today but right -thinking and patriotic Nigerians are not. And they are in the majority!
PHILipu1:

We are on a journey and our tyre has some problem and we simply take out the standby or spare tyre and fix it and we continue with our journey.
What is the issue with that?
Or you guys want a fresh election?
Buhari will still defeat Jonathan even if he is on life .
But will an Osinbajo defeat Jonathan? It is all about PMB. The masses voted overwhelmingly for Buhari but he does not care a hoot about them. He has rather impoverished them and even plunged the nation into an endless recession. Is the Nigeria of your dream? Was this what you had in mind when you defied the scorching sun and the elements to queue for hours to cast your vote for the man, Buhari? Absolutely not! Today, that dream is fading fast. The citizens are worse off than they were during the locust years of PDP. Less than two years to the end of first tenure of this APC government, can you boldly list any campaign promises fulfilled by the APC-led government? Instead, the person that the people entrusted to drive these unfulfilled promises and make the country better have remained incommunicado for 102 days and counting, and you feel it is ok? It is not. The #ResumeOrResign agitators are right on track. Take it or leave it!
MrHistorian:
Sometimes,I amaze at the some idiot's cerebral incapacity..
Has PMB's absence changed anything?...NO
Has PMB's absence stopped you from going on with your normal daily routine?...NO
Has PMB's absence stopped you from accessing food in the market...NO
Has PMB's absence decreased or halt Workers' salary...NO
To me,The whole noise about his absence is outrageously blown out of proportion.
And If you feel there is a vacuum in the Presidency seat..Apply for Zimbabwean citizenship!!
Are you indeed happy and satisfied that the man you probably voted into office to right the wrongs of the past in our polity have been absent from work for the past 102+ days and counting without the courtesy of communicating to the citizenry but can laugh and crack jokes with government delegation which visited? Did you vote for Buhari or Osinbajo? Without Buhari's name on the ballot paper, would you have, in all sincerity, voted for Osinbajo who you scarcely knew before the election? Let us endeavour to put things in their proper perspective at all times.

How is our offshore president doing..... 20days in and 200days out....
More like diaspora president or president in diaspora. I blame the senate which have failed disastrously in the performance of their duties in this regard.
