Year Of Action!!

I've creating this thread do to the fact of that alot of folks seem to be adamant about their beliefs in that the presidency and the rest of the general Nigerian leadership is still nothing more than a group of thugs trolling along steeling the nation's money. This is for the folks whom obstinately proclaim that theirs no hope for Naija, and for those whom badmouth the big man in charge, OBJ; claiming him to be everything from a liar to a worst leader than the godforsaken Abacha. How unfortunate.

This thread will be a bulletin, of such, in which will showcase the many day to day actions and events in which the gov. is taken to improve the lot of the general population and nation at whole. This year has been promised to be a dynamic one by OBJ and other leaders. The year is being postured to be a year of unparalleled ((ACTION)) by the presidency and other levels of government, to a level in which will not only be said to be taking place but seen and felt by the people at a comparable level.

By the end of the year, the list of actions and proposed actions should give us a rather accurate idea of whether or not the gov. is truly serious about their intentions and jobs, or if they are truly the same ol lot of shiftless do-nothings in which have become so common amongst the leadership of the nation. Fill free to add comparable news reports of your own finding, or, even better, one that counter the positive articles in which I present.

Benin, nobody is saying there's no hope for naija, most people are just saying that things are terrible the way they are right now and that things are on a downward spiral.
BTW what's ur opinion on OBJ's 3rd term agenda?

would love him to be there for another eight years....
But he will hand over in 2007... By the way when has OBJ ever said he is coming for a third term?? If the man has not said so himself, why wont people just drop it. Even his own son said he is an old man who is tired and about to retire to his farm.

and why do you think he should be there for another 8 years? Remember when he wanted to run in 1999? he kept denying his intent to run up until the last minute and then he said he had heard from God, what makes you think this time will be different?

1. I also want Ngozi Iweala, Nuhu Ribadu, and Abubakar Umar to Rule... But if I cant get any of these. I will settle for Baba Iyabo again. As per say man never trust the rest yet. As much as I like Gani, im go kaput Naija wif im gra!gra! no be power dem dey take rule, but sense. Im need to cool down a likkle bit.

2.Some of us knew that OBJ did not want to be President after he was released from jail... But some respected people outside Nigeria helped in
persuading him to accept the post.

3. 2007 dey round the conner, God give us life we go see wetin go happin

what's ur problem? Khamileon asked me a question in pidgin and i replied in pidgin, so what's it got to do with you? If you want to learn pidgin then you better pay for lessons.

Ok, because i love you, Benin, i'll explain. Khamileon asked me to hook him up with an hausa girl, and i agreed. But now, i've changed my mind cos he has so many wives on NR and i cant hook him up with my friend when i know she's going to be one amongst many.My friend doesnt want to be 1st, 2nd or 3rd fiddle, she wants to be the only fiddle. So i told him to leave them all and only then will i hook him up.
that'd be 50 bucks for translation

Thanks, for the the breakdown!! Your (Nigerian/West African) Pidgin is way to hard to understand in many occasions. Our Ebonics is much more simpler to comprehend IMO. You can deduct my fee from the debt you owe me for giving you all those economic and politic lessons in the other News board threads.
