NIGERIA IS SERIOUSLY ILL!!! OR NIGERIANS ARE TERRIBLY SICK!!!!

NIGERIA IS SERIOUSLY ILL!!! OR NIGERIANS ARE TERRIBLY SICK!!!! If not so, Why does the constitution prescribed 3 national languages, but when the sick president speaks any of the three, he has committed crime against the misguided sectionalist tribalistic bamboozled beguiled slobs! Go to China and see how they tolerate each others dialect. The predominant language in China is Hanyu which is divided into seven major dialect groups (often classified as distinct languages by foreign linguists), is known as Hanyu ( simplified Chinese: 汉语; traditional Chinese : 漢語; pinyin: Hànyǔ ). And the Prime minister has the liberty to speak any of them. See India, Korea and, even, Brazil (that we have independent together) they have gone far in the development of there countries because they have no antagonal sentiment. They now manufacturer vessels, aircraft and even missile. But we are here blindly chanting Tutsi and Hutu slogans. When I was in Sierra Leone, they were ruled by a MENDE Siaka S

Fani-Kayode tags Gov Okorocha as a diaper-wearing, untrustworthy fellow 1 hour ago 0 Comments by  Editor Written by  Editor Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has described Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha as a diaper-wearing governor and doubts the believability of the governor’s position on the president’s health. Fani-Kayode made the remark against the backdrop of the Imo leader’s disagreement with Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose that President Muhammadu Buhari has been on life support since June 6. Using his twitter handle, the former minister said, “When a courageous Fayose tells you that Buhari is in a coma and diaper-wearing Governor Rochas tells u it is a lie, you know who to believe.” In yet another tweet over Okorocha’s position on the Indigenous People of Biafra leader, Nnamdi Kanu, Fani-Kayode said, “Diaper-wearing Governor Rochas says that Nnamdi Kanu is not to be taken seriously. Truth is he is not one tenth of the man that Nna

Angry Arewa youths call Dangote a scavenger, moral liability to the North 24 hours ago 9 Comments by  Editor Written by  Editor The Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) has described Africa’s richest man, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, as the “final destination where every corrupt government officials dump their public treasury loot”. They also referred to him as a moral liability to the North. A statement credited to Dangote on Wednesday had dubbed the CNG as jobless youths seeking relevance. He was reacting to the recent quit notice the youths gave to all Igbos living in the North to vacate the region on or before October 1. But in its response to Dangote, CNG not only described him as a moral burden and dumping ground for looted funds, but also said that in his pursuit of wealth, he has come to “develop an endemic hatred for his northern kith.” The CNG statement was released and signed by its spokesman, Abdul-Azez Suleiman. Members of the groups are Arewa Yout

North Korea conducts rocket engine test

North Korea conducts rocket engine test By mrcent  |   30 June 2017   |   12:42 pm North Korea recently tested a small rocket engine, a monitoring group said Wednesday, after a US official had reportedly suggested the test could be a step to develop an intercontinental ballistic missile. The respected 38 North analysis group however said it was not clear whether the test, conducted at the North’s Sohae satellite launch site, involved an ICBM engine. Based on satellite imagery analysis, the Washington-based group said the nuclear-armed state appeared to have conducted a “small rocket engine test” on or around June 22. Previous satellite imagery of the site taken on June 10 showed no signs of test preparations, which showed North “possesses the technical and logistical capabilities to conduct such tests with little or no advance warning”, it added. An unnamed Washington official told Reuters last week that the North had tested an engine that “could be for the smallest stage

El-Rufai: Many of the politicians calling for restructuring are opportunists June 29 14:23 2017 Nasir el-Rufai, governor of Kaduna, says most of the politicians calling for restructuring are “opportunists”. Speaking on Sunrise Daily, a Channels Television programme, on Thursday, el-Rufai said those who have presidential ambition were exploiting the restructuring call. The governor said majority of the people who are clamouring for restructuring do not have “concrete ideas about what it really means”. “For many people, when you talk about restructuring, it is political opportunism. Most of what you see in the media, most of the people that talk about restructuring or give long lectures about restructuring are unable to give you any concrete ideas about what it really means,” he said. “As I said, a lot of the talk on restructuring is political opportunism and irresponsibility in my opinion. It is popular and people that have presidential aspiratio
