Re: Sheriff Mohammed

NIGERIANS ARE IMPATIENT?????????????????????

You claimed recently that you work (or worked)for the UN, but I am shocked that with your level of exposure you have the nerve to say that Nigerian are impatient. If someone like you can make this statement, what do we expect the increasing number of uneducated and unexposed people in Nigeria to say. At this rate, we are in real trouble.

First of all, how do you define impatience? I had to consult my dictionary to be sure that the meaning of the world has not changed over time.According to the Oxford Advance Learners Dictionary and a recent one at that, impatience means
1) Being annoyed or irritated because you have to wait for a long time for something or someone.
2) Wanting to do something or wanting something to happen soon.
3) Unwilling to accept something that is unpleasant.

Satisfied that it still means the same thing as when I was in primary school, I am totally disappointed in your statement. Why should Nigerians wait till we are all exterminated for us to enjoy the basic things of life? Don't you think that the 47yrs of independence, is enough time for Nigerians to enjoy the basic necessities that life has to offer? Mind you, 47yrs is almost the life expectancy of an average Nigerian. As a UN official, I am sure you know this.

With all our wealth, including human and natural, even the 8yrs of OBJ's presidency is enough to recover from the prolong military shock and start enjoying some basic needs. When our road, schools, hospitals and other social infrastructures today are worse than they were in 1999, how patient do you want us to be.

Since you said you are not Hausa, let us assume that you are from Edo state like Igbo Kwenu implied, I have a question for you. How is the security in Benin today, compared to 1999. I am aware people cannot even hold their mobile phone in the entrance of their houses, and you talk of Nigerians being impatient.

For anyone that had a genuine interest in making Nigeria the envy of other nations, 1999 would have been the best time to lay the foundation, because Nigerians that have been patient all these while were ready to totally support anyone who was the number 1 citizen, so long as the person was not wearing a khaki. YarAdua will even have a tougher time taking Nigeria to the promised land (if he can) because our patience will soon run out.

Like Jon Lawrence pointed out, peharps the worst problem of Nigeria is over-patience. Instead of us to take our destiny by our hands, we keep calling on God to take control. Look at how voters and their votes were treated in the last elections. Everyone knew that the elections were rigged and that the emergence of YarAdua was not free and fair, yet the Nigerians you say are impatient were the ones too willing to forgive and give him a chance. The dust had not yet settled, and Nigerians were already calling for the seat of the presidency to be left for YarAdua in the interest of peace and our ever young democracy. This is Nigerians gambling with another four years and you say we are impatient. Do not get me wrong, I believe in God, but I also believe that he will not come down from Heaven to help us. We have to take initiative and do something for ourselves, then maybe, just maybe he may decide to crown our efforts with success.

I have been quite busy lately, that is why I have not been too regular in sending my opinions, but I just couldnt ignore your posting. You have let even the few of us that still manage to read what you say and pick a few things down. That I am disappointed in you, is infact an understatement.

RE:sheriff

Look at yourself and what do you see? Helpless loser. I pity you so much because you are confused. Go through all your postings and you will understand that, you makes no different at all. You are one of the biggest fool I have ever came across in the recent times. You opened your stinky mouth, chew with your underbrushed teeth and spit to the good people of Nigeria that they are inpatient. What an insult. Until you apologize to the good citizen of Nigeria, you will be hunted by their hunger, suffering and tribulations that they are going through. We will see who is a moron here. Mark my word.

I AM GEN.CHIEF OLUSHEGUN OBASANJO THE ONE AND ONLY

Omo Akin Friday, July 27, 2007

omoakin@nollywooddiaspora.com

OBASANJO: "IF I RIGGED IT"
"Enough is enough! I, Olusegun Aremu 'Methuselah' Obasanjo have had enough of the accusations and counter-accusations in many quarters to the effect that I was responsible for the wholesale rigging of the last election. Hence the time has come for me to set the records straight once and for all. I want to make it known that I have been an honest and honorable citizen all my life, refusing to loot like the rest of the people who have ruled this country. Don't listen to those who say I am worth more than N180bn. I might have a jet or two and some choice lands across the place but this whole finger pointing is all a figment of my detractor's imagination.


The whole hullabaloo about daylight robbery and disappearance of election materials is nothing but the handiwork of political contractors. Yes, these faceless buffoons have been sponsored by the looters who are throwing their ill-gotten wealth around because in the interest of the nation, I stopped them from assuming the highest office in the land, where they would have been strategically positioned to loot even more bravely.

But concerning the last elections, which as those who have brains know I did not rig, I would like to hypothetically postulate, that if in fact I rigged it, this is how I would have done so.

SOUTH WEST

You all know that in the West, I am not really as popular as I would want even myself to believe. In fact, I am yet to fully fathom the people's infatuation with the man they call Obafemi Awolowo. Awo, Awoism, Awoists, Neo-Awoists or any derivative of that name have always been a big source of irritation. And as you all know, many have not forgotten my unguarded utterances about Abiola, the one who won what even I know was the freest and fairest election the land ever had.

Who will forget AD, AC and Tinubu-all bent on disgracing me even in my own backyard? If you were in my shoes, how would you feel, if Atiku came all the way from his homestead and captured your own state? I still remember with great sadness the 1999 election, where I lost even my own local government because I didn't have the necessary tools to determine the outcome. I swore ever since never to allow that to happen again, even if it meant forming an unholy alliance with Lamidi Adedibu and his kind. Why do you think I withheld all the allocation for Lagos state? It was so they won't have too much money to throw around.

SOUTH EAST

Then there is the Southeast, where as you all know, I showed that I am indeed a vindictive man, who hates those who hate me and irrigate those who irritate me. As you know too, all the promises I made to that region remained nothing but promises for the entire eight years I was in power.

With the way and manner I set Anambra on fire; with the whole Enugu International Airport remaining nothing but another one of my political 419 promises; with me making sure that I banned or criminalized anything and everything importable-from stockfish which they can't seem to do without to even the materials to finish the making of nkwobi; with the neglect of the roads leading to that region so that journeys of few hours took days, you can understand the stand of Ohaneze and the people of that region not to throw me one legal vote. Hence I was not ready to stand idly by.

Knowing that Abia because of the egghead there was a no-go-area, I reluctantly spared that so-called God's own state, where a juju man now holds sway. Not even my giving him a prison tag could stop him. I should have known that when Nigerians are bent on acquiring power, they let nothing stand in their way. Come to think of it, I was an ex-con myself.

But I never wanted to spare the rest of the South Eastern states, until Ararume refused to lick my revered chops, and Ohakim got lucky and there went another state called Imo. But in my vindictive spirit of fair play, I am getting back at Kalu, the man responsible for making me lose both states. Or do you think that his travail is the handiwork of my puppy-prez Yaro? Think again! The same method I used to trace the assets of my archenemy Abacha is the same long juju I am using to sniff out his assets.

In Anambra, I ensured that the ballot papers were never brought on time, so that after endless waiting the people would tire and retire to their homes. But alas, some of the people were doggedly determined to exercise their civil rights, and since I had huge investments and interests to protect, I had to move to Plan B, which was to hijack the ballot boxes to designated locations where genuine materials would be replaced with other forgeries.

But even this nearly failed since we weren't too prepared for those like Nnamami who made lots of noise. That annoying man who refused to slip even with all the banana peels I laid like red carpet, could have with a little more noise succeeded in heading an interim government. Think of what could have become of my last minute liquidations, and that was why I had to act fast, and rope him in in the name of anti-party activities. More so, I had my bomboy Uba to settle, even if things didn't quite work out as planned.

The game plan in Enugu was simple: We had a Bank Zuwo in Dr. Chimarogue Nnamani. We simply allowed him to loot bravely; knowing that he was bound to use part of the loot to install a stooge all in a bid to protect his derrière blanc. Omo Akin! You just called the guys behind white. Whatever!

In Ebonyi on the other hand, the game plan was two-pronged: 1. Rope in their leaders with corruption charges so they'd not hesitate to play ball. Yes, they must ensure that the state remained PDP or face the EFCC music which was not going to be anything like ugene. 2. Flood the states with as much naira notes and pre-thumbed ballot papers as would be capable of wrapping all the stockfish in Igboland. You can't lose if you if you bet your last penny on nkwobi.

NORTH

And then the North.with all those people.still smarting because I was not the Surajo they thought I was going to be. I am Olusegun Aremu 'Omolokun' Obasanjo. Where did Surajo come into the picture? I know you might remember and point to the political photo op, where I wore the Yoruba agbada, Igbo redcap and Hausa/Fulani turban? That was the baboon in me playing political buffoonery at its best. Oh, the things we do for power!

To ensure success in the North, I had to employ the services of some powerful Nigerien marabouts. They imposed the spell called "one minute you see red, the other you see blue." To ensure that nothing was left to chance, we reinforced that spell with some Chadian underworld warfare aptly termed: "Is it a cow or a goat?" In other words, in the spirit of confusion, they will vote Yar'Adua, believing he was Buhari. But just in case they failed to bait, the INEC officials had been given this clear instruction: "Any vote for Buhari goes to Yar'Adua."

But beyond all the marabouts, and INEC, we have our golden retriever EFCC to thank again for putting the fear of tapariya (suya name for pestle) in any uncooperative politicians. AC and ANPP should be happy we left them some states, since we were trying to make the election victory as comprehensive as possible. Yes, we had enough charms and amulets to get the votes of even all the goats and sheep living or dead.

Did Atiku and Buhari expect to win in Katsina? That would have been a big blow to my boy Dead-Man-Walking. His poor heart would have been unable to withstand the shock, and we might have seen another emergency landing in a German hospital. He could have swallowed the ghost, and we did not come so far just to play Aaron. But we did let the other also-rans carry states that we knew could cause the land to burn if we decided to commandeer their results. This is another example of our political magnanimity that the opponents never mention.

We also ensured that some of the ballot papers were printed at the last minute in South Africa, where the security coding for the ballot papers were conspicuously missing. That way it was easier to have a field day. Did I tell you that we left the pictures of you know who out. And how did we go about the movement of the ballot boxes? You'd be surprised to know that some of those lorries you thought were ferrying cows across state lines were actually carrying ballot boxes-cow dung and all.

Before I forget, the Supreme Court and their leaders who had been aptly paid off came in very handy, causing as much confusion as you can possibly imagine. And about the election petitions, we had all that covered-the name of the game was adjournment. We made sure that the whole case was adjourned until well after the inauguration and after, we'd exploit the greed of our people for power by inviting them to a government of unity. Don't forget I gave your lazy asses some frivolous public holiday to celebrate the cow that gave birth to fire. Spell ATIKU.

Can you imagine the same court of the land is giving my boy Yaro Adua fourteen days to defend his mandate? But I am not too ****ed, since the wig-wearing judges have to give the semblance of doing something. But what can they really do with all the money we have given to their sorry asses? And by the way, Yaro Adua even acknowledged that the whole election process was floored, so what do they really want again? Do they want him come out openly say he stole a mandate? Even if he did, isn't that asking for too much?

But as you can see, all these are mere conjectures, since as the beloved party in the land we had no need to rig the last election. Forget all that the opponents are saying as mere propaganda. We thank you people for giving us the opportunity to loot, I mean rule for the next four years. I rigged nothing, and all I have recounted here are merely things I'd have done if actually I rigged it.

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria".

Chimaroke has killer squad...says EFCC

It's so amazing that truth is emerging from all corners and most interesting faster than one could imagine. Does it mean that the diabolic and evil deeds of Chimaroke Nnamani is fast catching up with him?...may God be the glory. So EFCC knew all these while that Chimaroke is a dreaded killer and when Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka was alerting the police and the masses about threat to his life and that of other innocent people in Coal city, the police normally in their usual way, dismissed those calls by hapless citizens in Enugu state with a wave of hand and most of the time decline to investigate various killings in once erstwhile peaceful and rancor free state. At the very end, Rev. Fr. Mbaka is vindicated by the EFCC testimonies against dreaded Ebeano. The evil that men do lives with them, and even after them. This is the beginning of Chimaroke's woes, for the blood of the innocent people he diabolically killed are crying vengeance. A prophesy fulfilled.His seat in senate should be declared vacant for his character as a senator has been called to question.

"The essence of immorality is the tendency to make an exception of myself."


"Justice denied anywhere diminishes justice everywhere."


"There are particular moments in public affairs when the people, stimulated by some irregular passion, or some illicit advantage, or misled by the artful misrepresentations of interested men, may call for measures which they themselves will afterwards be most ready to lament and condemn. In these critical moments, how salutary will be the interference of some temperate and respectable body of citizens, in order to check the misguided career and to suspend the blow meditated by the people against themselves, until reason, justice and truth can regain their authority over the public mind."



"Don't be taken in when they paternally pat you on the shoulder and say that there's no inequality worth speaking of and no more reason to fight because if you believe them they will be completely in charge in their marble homes and granite banks from which they rob the people of the Niger delta under the pretence of one Nigeria and one nation ."

When money and power are considered more important than people; the giant triplets of ethnicity, militarism, and economic exploitation are incapable of being conquered."

So It's Our Fault Now- IMPATIENT?

Mr Sherriff Mohammed in his usual infinite wisdom has advocated that the suffering citizens are impatient? So before we could digest his self scoring of Aremu into 70% performance in office, Sherriff has thrown another ballistic again at us? So we are now to blame for leaders like Abacha, Obj, Babangida etc?

Eight years is a very long time for anybody who is somebody to do something with something entrusted on him or he should resign. You can build any length of sound road in a month with all the amenities attached to it. The entire Jubilee line London underground station extentions streching over 10 brand new staion was build within one year to be opened on the eve of the millenium celebration 2000 which was the target. It's the most gingantic project in Britain for many years.

But 70% scoring OBJ could not start, let alone finish a streched long road called BENIN/ORE road or ONITSHA/OWERRI road in eight years that claims thousands of life annually. Nigerians can only dream of even 2 hours of electricity supply in a day with mosquitoes making a meal of them in the process. Pipe borne water left Nigeria with the British, while OBJ and his bridgade of governors still dig holes (a.k.a Borehole) all over Nigeria for their people and have no shame to sometimes commission it with dancing and singing fanfares in this 21st century.

Nigerians still die over the commonest and treatable illnesses till this day. Their police still beat the citizens black/blue for refusing to offer bribe and the same goes in their airports, Seaport etc were they still use physical hand to search luggages because we cannot afford a simple x-ray machines I had seen even in Addis Abba airport functioning.

And after all these, even with still smile on their face, you turn round and accuse them of being impatient. No country, that I can remember will endure in an hour, what Nigerians had to endure in their life time. I will not even use the affluent nations as an example of peoples endurance or lack of patient. Just behind our backyard is Cameroon. I lived once in Duoala working for a French company for 3 years in the late 80s and early 90s and through out that period, there was power cut in Douala for only just mere 3 hours due to essential repairs, but despite that, a confectionary company successfully sued the electricity company for damages and won. This was Cameroon nearly 15 years ago. But halpless Nigerians gets electric bills from NEPA or whatever it baptism name is now without actual supply of electricity them and they will obediently pay up. If that is not patient for you, I wonder what is?
If we are sincere, we can even say that the greatest handicap of Nigerians is being over patient waiting for a change that they knew will never come from their maximum rulers unless they take it into their own hand and force a change.

Re: Sheriff Mohammed

Mr Refuge/OneNigeria and I may even add Patience like Chiemeka said,

You are the worst hypocrite I have come across in recent times. You talk about people having patience, and you totally lack it in every sentence you post. You consistently and continuously say negative things about OUK, yet you use his forum to express your disgusting views. You praise OBJ who is the grand patron of theives and castigate OUK, who has stolen a negligible percent of the grand patron's loot. The impact of the negative decisions and activities of your master OBJ, far outweighs that of OUK.

Nobody, not even a stunch Biafran will decieve himself that OUK is a saint, no one is in support of the stealing of Public funds, but we are all united in the opinion that selective justice, especially in relation to the Igbo's is wrong (except for a very few saboteurs like Ojo). But I am sure with your refugee-tainted brain, you will never understand what I am talking about. You have probably spent most of your time in war-torn zones that you have lost touch with the Nigerian reality.

Like I said, you are obviously looking for an appointment, that is why you are an oh-yes member of anything pro-OBJ. That also explains why you like to chip in your so-called expertise once in a while. Mr appointment seeker, you will fail seriously. Even if you manage to get something, it will leave you worse than you are now. To be fore-warned is to be fore-armed. Like someone adviced Yar Adua recently and I quote 'Obasanjo destroys everything that crosses his path, friends or foes'. Your blind support for OBJ will destroy you sooner or later.

OFEKE

You called me a nonetity? I do not blame you but pity you. Your type will never see anything bad done by OUK. This and many other reasons will keep you in everlasting slavery. A thief is a thief. A man that does a business with #100 and made a profit of #1000 is nothing but a grandfather of all thieves. Since you agreed its business I rest my case. I do not have to join issues with a moron like you. Keep doing your illegal business, all days are for thieves, just one day will be for the Law enforcement agents. The end of road is very near.
