SHOULD SELF ACTUALIZATION BE ABOUT APPOINTMENT INTO GOVERNMENT?

To secede, and to be recognised by the UN, there is a minimum standards for statehood required by the international law

These are the fundamental requirements:

*You must have a defined territory.

*You must have a permanent population. Meaning at least 80% of Biafran must be living within the permanent territory

*A referendum must be carried out within the permanent population.

*You must have a government. That is, all your current state government must resign and all the states in the SE must be subsumed and become one state with a defined government. ,

* That government must be capable of interacting with other states, outside the defined territory.

Biafra haven’t met up with just one of this criteria. Recognition by the UN is also a guarantee for freedom. But as it is now, Nobody knows which group of Biafrans to recognise. WHICH MEANS THE WHOLE ISSUE IS ABOUT BLACKMAIL TO GET APPOINTMENT AND TO RULE NIGERIA.

Nobody get things on a platter of Gold. You will have to work for for it and be consistent. You must build bridges and stop insulting people. You can stand on nothing and expect something. It can never happen.

NOBODY HATE THE IGBOS

"PDP senators turn dumb during Amaechi’s screening"

All the whole people EFCC are pursuing up and down should be left alone because no court of competent jurisdiction has found them guilty. A bad precedence has been set. No matter any corrupt allegation hanging on your neck, you can be whatever in the government of Nigeria. Power is transient. Those clapping and seeing this as a war between the APC and PDP are mistaking because it's the image of the country that is at stake. It's Buhari today, tomorrow it might be another and they should as well applaud when a politician is appointed to any position despite any allegation on his head. This will always be a reference point.

I am not a fan of Tinubu but I respect him for fighting for his beliefs. However, Saraki is like a toasted fish who is at the mercies of its owners.

Campaign slogan

This governor just created a campaign slogan for the 2019 governorship elections. He will complete some 30 percent of this project with an amount that can do the job trice and use same to ask for votes for his second term to enable him complete the project.

Governors should starts getting involved in projects they can handle within their tenure. The governor has already collected loans from two banks but never told us the conditions attached to the loans. Nigerians will continue to have low thinkers as leaders until we decide to use the best among us irrespective of the GOD they serve, the language they speak, the regions they are from and the colour of our eyes.

As president, insults were pleasant to me — Obasanjo

Old age is telling do much on Obj. He took insults and assassinated his political enemies. Obj is a special gift from the devil to torment Nigerians and he is not doing badly. Nigerians knows Obj and no amount of paint brushing will take away the evil in him.

"Lawmaker reminds Buhari of free education campaign promise"

"Lawmaker reminds Buhari of free education campaign promise"

Obviously they aren't politicians or at best they are living far ahead of their time. Promises during campaigns by politicians are meant for vote catching and nothing more.

President Buhari is not an exception and that explains why no sooner he  had won the election, he then distanced himself from his promises. Some people attributed this to ravages of old age which is adversely affecting his reflexes, but he still remember to compensate his friends. Any person expecting a fulfilment of any of his promises should be disappointed at the end of the day.

I Challenge Anyone To Bring An Invoice Of A N50m Bed - Fayemi

Rather than struggle to make Nigerians happy they are struggling to make the presidency happy. I am perplexed to say the least. I insist this is not screening but a favour searching moves by the national assembly members to be in the good book of Buhari. I am pained that our democracy is all about loyalty to people and not the constitution.

Ogbonnaya Onu said we as a oil producing nation are importing petroleum and we have farmers from east to west north to south we are importing food. A nation that cant feed itself does not have any reason to exist.

Saraki father screened Audu Ogbe as a minister in 1979 and the son screened the same Audu Ogbe in 2015. When will the youths of this nation wake up to their responsibilities?

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Blast Senate President

"Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, yesterday, lambasted Senate President, Bukola Saraki, describing him as an indisciplined, disloyal and member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in soul"

Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is an astute politician. He understands the game and he plays it well too. He's not unaware of how Alh. Tambuwal emerged as Speaker of the House of Representative against the choice of PDP (Tambuwal's party at that time). In fact, it's not unlikely that Tinubu was not involved in Tambuwal's assumption of the House's leadership then. I mean, Asiwaju Tinubu most likely played a role in ensuring that Hon. Tambuwal thwarted the PDP's plan regarding the speakership of the House at that time.

Tambuwal's emergence  as Speaker was probably part of a political game that resulted in Speaker Tambuwal's eventual defection to the APC from PDP. So, Asiwaju Tinubu, (possibly) knowing how Alh. Tambuwal remained a PDP member on paper but was an APC member in his soul throughout the period he was the House Speaker, reasonably believes that Senate President Saraki may have joined the APC on paper but has remained a PDP member in his soul. I therefore agree with Asiwaju Bola Tinubu's possible suspicion that Senate President Saraki, having become the president of the senate without his party's support, may eventually defect to the PDP.

Defection of a sitting senate president to another party is indeed a great loss to the party on whose platform he came to the office. There is every reason to fear this. Asiwaju Tinubu therefore has genuine reason to have this fear and I guess he's just doing that.

SPORT

Oliseh is a candidate for disgrace. Oliseh is part of those that destroyed our football when he and his group introduced Mafia in the EAGLES. Oliseh is shaming those of us that believes in NIGERIAN COACHES.

"Beware of Celebrity Pastors and Mega-Churches"

You became a born again some 22 years back according to you. You went further to say you rejected an appointment from Banbagida. It is an open secret that Abacha was in power when Obj was campaigning for the position of UN Secretary General. From your words, you stayed away from politics and political appointments when you came in contact with CHRIST some 22 years, but you forgot to tell your readers that Banbagida left the scene some 32 years back that is some 10 years before you came in contact with CHRIST.

One of the principle of CHRISTIANITY is forgiveness which you seems not to have according to your post. Again, how can you teach your followers of forgiveness when you cant even forgive? Intelligent Nigerians knew that Buhari is battling the landmines placed on his ways by past government and it is a shame that people like you who ought to know better are dancing skelewu praying day in day out for Buhari to fail to justify your non existing ego.

I have a good news for you, Buhari will succeed and people like you will eat up your words and knowing how the mind of the average Nigerian work, you will come out to claim the credit for Buhari's achievements and tell the gullibles that Buhari was able to perform because of your criticism.

Somebody asked you a question which I want to repeat again, who are you actually working for?

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY

The president CANNOT "appoint" Ministers on his own - however you choose to employ the term. He can only NOMINATE ministerial candidates who are then EITHER confirmed or rejected (yes, the president's nominees can be, and have been, REJECTED by the Senate). It is only upon confirmation by the Senate and swearing-in thereafter that Ministers can be said to have been DULY "appointed".

Now my question is this, will the the president therefore subject himself for screening as petroleum minister by the senate? Will he appear as a minister-designate to answer questions or "take a Bow and Go"? or would the senate visit him in Aso Rock for screening? A tricky one for the Senate.

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY
