Can GEJ Defeat Boko Haram?

-
1) 200 Chibok girls missing for 290 days, kidnapped by Boko Haram and GEJ has done nothing? When will GEJ ‪#‎BringBackOurGirls‬? Thousands other women and children have been abducted? When will GEJ as Commander-in-Chief bring them home? 2) Why is Dasuki calling our brave Military heroes 'cowards' before a British audience and GEJ says nothing to defend our valiant troops? 3) Why are our soldiers owed salaries and allowances despite the trillions budgeted for security? Why are our troops buying their own uniforms? 4) What is GEJ spending the defence budget on, when no significant military hardware has been purchased for 20 years? 5) Why did the Military do nothing about Baga and Monguno despite getting warnings before the attack? Why hasn't GEJ questioned his military commanders about this? 6) What is GEJ doing about Baga? Almost 4000 structures destroyed. Almost 2000 Nigerians killed? Why were our fellow Nigerians not evacuated from these towns despite the Military command knowing the community would be attacked? 7) GEJ sent a message commiserating with France a day after the Charlie massacre of 17 dead? Why did it take GEJ weeks to commiserate with the people of Baga? cool Why is GEJ allowing the army to arrest the brave Colonel who wrote him declaring it was corruption by the top brass preventing the military defeating Boko Haram? If GEJ cares for truth, why isn't he listening to this Colonel? 9) Why are British Parliamentarians saying GEJ is only paying lip service to fighting Boko Haram - and that Nigeria has the capacity to deal with Boko Haram if GEJ wants to? 10) 20% of Nigeria's budget goes on security. N4.4 trillion has been spent on security during the years of GEJ's regime. Where is the security when Nigeria has lost significant amounts of territory? 11) How can GEJ have an NSA who says sophisticated weaponry is not needed to defeat insurgents? Does GEJ expect our troops to use bows and arrows? 12) 3 million Nigerians have become refugees, driven from their homes, some fleeing to live in refugee camps in Cameron, crying for their homeland. What is GEJ doing to bring them back home? Facts 1) GEJ is the first Nigerian leader to lose territory in a way with an enemy. 2) GEJ ignored the North East and only went for a staged photo-op with 'injured' soldiers and to campaign for votes. When will GEJ visit the truly injured soldiers? 3) GEJ's supporters make excuses for him: he is inexperienced; he is gentle, the North is making problems for him. How can we keep deceiving ourselves? After 6 years in office, how much more experience does he need? Do we need a gentle C-in-C fighting our battle? Is it Northern politicians stopping him from ensuring his military command prosecute this war successfully? 4) GEJ has failed. GEJ cannot fight this insurgency. GEJ blames everyone else for his failure. GEJ has failed to keep Nigeria secure. GEJ has failed to keep Nigerians safe. The Solution For Nigeria. Cometh the hour and cometh the man. 1) General Buhari has the proven military experience and toughness that GEJ lacks. Nigeria needs a leader with proven experience in defeating terrorists. 2) In the 1980's, General Buhari crushed the deadly Maitaisine sect - terrorists like Boko Haram. 3) Buhari defeated an ambush by Chad into Nigerian territory and pushed them out of Nigeria. He then captured territory in Chad before the Nigerian govt halted his advance. 4) Under Buhari's regime in 1984 - 1985, Nigeria invested in sophisticated weaponry, some of which the army still uses today. Nigeria must say goodbye to a President who cannot keep the country secure. GEJ has had 6 years to lead us but he has failed us. It is time for proven Military experience. It is time for a leader who knows how to crush terrorists. It is time for change. It is time for Buhari. http://www.theguardian.com/…/­nigeria-prospects-def­eating-… http://www.theguardian.com/…/­nigeria-soldiers-cowa­rds-bok… http://www.vanguardngr.com/…/­spent-military-equipm­ent-jo…/ http://www.amnesty.org/…/­nigeria-nigerian-auth­orities-wer… http://armstrade.sipri.org/­armstra…/html/­export_values.php http://www.theguardian.com/…/­satellite-images-reve­al-deva… Compiled by: Petra Iyabo Akinti Onyegbule

5 facts about O TO GE slogan and the collapse of Saraki's dynasty

-
Image
Kwara Must Change 1. Alh. LAK Jimoh was the first politician in modern history of Kwara state to use the O TO GE slogan in a campaign. O TO GE simply means, Enough is Enough.  Alhaji Jimoh first used the slogan in 2011 when he was contesting the Kwara Central Senatorial seat under the People's Democratic Party (PDP). Bukola Saraki eventually won the ticket and went ahead to represent Kwara Central at the Senate.  While the slogan wasn't popular at the time, there's no taking away the fact that Alh LAK Jimoh used it first and could be rightly credited to be the originator. 2. 8 years later, the slogan idea was pitched again in 2018 immediately after the All Progressive Congress primary election in Kwara State. After the APC primary election, Islamic singer, Aminat Obirere produced a song titled o to ge as part of a joint album coordinated by Kwara Must Change to promote the candidature of APC governorship candidate, Alh. Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq. The album itself was titled

A lady, who goes by the name Sarah Mcgovern on social network site Facebook, has quite her job over what she described as harassment and persistently being refereed to as sweetie by her boss. Sarah took to Facebook on December 7th 2017 to narrate her experience. She wrote: I don't post many deeply personal things online, but I want to share this. I quit my job about a month ago because of harassment. Below is my letter of resignation. I think it's important to share this truth, and to know that many of us will not tolerate the abuse. We can and should walk out. #metoo "Hi Elias, This is my letter of resignation, effective today, October 31, 2017, my last partial day of employment.

CONSTITUENCY PROJECTS AND NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROCESS: THREAT OR OPPORTUNITY? BY JAYE GASKIA

-
Image
Fourteen years after the practice and phenomenon of Constituency projects began to evolve in the legislative practice and appropriation process of the 4th Republic, the phenomenon has grown to become pervasive across the Federation with both Federal and state legislatures now fully embracing the practice. Yet, nearly a decade and half on, there is still no clarity regarding the practice, with respect to any form of agreed framework guiding its implementation. There is, as of the moment of writing this piece in 2018, no policy, legislative nor institutional framework underlying and providing not only pragmatic, but also scientific criteria and parameter for determining the why, how, and where of constituency projects. And even though there are currently draft bills being considered by both chambers of the National Assembly [NASS] aimed at providing a regulatory framework for the practice, the bills have nevertheless remained stuck within the opaque labyrinth of the legislative proce

2019 Election: FPP condemn reckless remarks by political parties and foreign interests

-
........ call on Nigerians to trust INEC An independent Non Governmental Organisation, Foundation for Peace Professionals (FPP) has called on the Nigerian people to have faith in their country & give chance to Government Institutions like Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), being the Nigerian electoral body to finish up what its started. The elections cannot be concluded if announcement of Presidential election results cannot be made. The organisation frowned at reckless statements coming from political parties, organisations and foreign  individuals aimed at heating up the polity just to pitch Nigerians against each other. In a statement issued by the Executive Director, Abdulrazaq Hamzat, FPP stated that after the successful conduct of the 2019 general election, the two leading political parties in Nigeria have been raising false alarms without basis. According to Hamzat, "the baseless and unsubstantiated alarms being raised by the ruling All Progress

IBB had no respect for sycophants - Col. Abubakar Dangiwa (Part 2)

The Col. Abubakar Dangiwa Umar story (part two) "My relationship with General Babangida" “I had on several occasions in the past explained why I enjoy a very close relationship with IBB. IBB was my instructor at the Nigerian Defence Academy. Since then, I found him to be a very brilliant and inspiring officer. In fact, he had great influence on my career choice of the armoured corps, being an amour officer himself. Of course, we had disagreements, some of them quite straining, but they have not succeeded m changing my perception of him. This is true with most officers who worked closely with the man. With all this, I had never allowed such a close personal relationship to becloud my vision and judgment of his performance as a superior officer, particularly during his eight‑year rule as President and C‑in‑C. Mr. Edwin Madunagu, a man I have high regards for as an accomplished intellectual and a socially concerned person, confirmed what I have always suspected that most ou

What Drake has in common with Davido

-

If you have been following the American hip hop scene lately, you must have heard about the beef between Drake and Pusha T, the President of kanye West Good Music. On Friday, Pusha T dropped Daytona, a 21-minute album currently making wave in America. Closing out the album’s seven-track run was “Infrared,” a lyrical track addressing the dubious artistry of Drake, a longtime thorn in Push’s side. On the infrared track, Pusha T slammed Drake once again for using ghost writer and many others. In the usual Drake manner, the God’s Plan hit maker fired back with a track titled “Duppy Freestyle”—released less than 24 hours after Pusha T’s album dropped, where he dispensed the grievances about his history with ghostwriting. Drake went further to drag Kanye West into the rap battle, saying he had once assisted Kanye on a track, a collaboration well aknowleded by Mr. West. In the Drake’s response, he also dragged the name of Pusha T’s wife into the battle and all hell let loose.
