Last night Wednesday, January 23, 2013, President Goodluck Jonathan was interviewed by CNN’s Christiane Amanpour where he agreed that Boko Haram could pose an existential threat to Nigeria.
‘If Boko Haram is not contained, it would be a threat not only to Nigeria, but to West Africa, Central Africa and of course to North Africa’, he said. ‘Elements of Boko Haram link up with some of al Qaeda in northern Mali and other North African countries…’

The electricity issue in nigeria is still a nightmare. i live and work in lagos, for the past 2 weeks i hv nt seen a flash of light from my bulb and i hv received a bill for january 2013 with a warning to my gateman for immediate payment to avoid disconnection. The major problem most at times is that we dont get to see or use the light but we pay heavily for it by force by fire. The level of injustice in nigeria is very high most especially in the area of power, and we claim to have good xtians and moslems in nigeria. God in heaven is definitely not happy with nigerian government and the level of injustice and blood shed in the land flowing with milk and honey like nigeira. Mr president please and please stop listening to a lot of stories from people whose interest is not in the development of this nation, one thing that you can achieve in your tenure and people will ever b gr8tful to you is CONSTANT POWER SUPPLY, If u can achieve this, u hv been able to achieve wat nobody in nigeria have been able to do since the history of nigeria, jst like nobody today will talk about GSM communication without mentioning obasanjo…………….think about this and do things accordingly
pls mr president recruit medical doctors in prisons ,immigration, ndlea, customs ,army ,navy ,civil defence,roadsafety etc.let the recruitment be free and fair no lobbyin.
