Nigerian politicians pushed out by acting president
El Paso News.Net Wednesday 17th March, 2010
The acting Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan has dismissed his Cabinet.
No reason has been given for the dismissal which has seen all ministers stepping down.
Goodluck Jonathan has been acting president since 9th February due to President Umaru Yar'Adua being ill.
President Yar'Adua had been in a cardiac clinic in the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah for three months before returning to Nigeria only weeks ago.
He has not been seen in public since his return.
In the coming weeks, the governors of Nigeria's 36 federal states will nominate candidates for ministerial posts. Email this story to a friend

Goodluck Jonathan sacks Nigerian Cabinet
How I wish Acting President can nominate his candidates for the ministerial positions. The ousted ministers were a bunch of same old same old thieves whose main aim was to enrich themselves as usual. My fear is that Nigeria needs a no nonsense leader who will demand results and nothing from his or her ministers. I challenge the northern govs. to nominate young blood and not recycling the dead woods of the previous republic. I hope the AP does not place wrong cog in the right hole this time around. It’s about time for reallity check.

ONE who spoke us all into existence
God who intervened in the case of Niger Republic will not leave Nigeria unturned in Jesus Name
but i do not think we need army’s intervention because someone like Salou Djibo is scarce in Nigeria.

It is the Lord's doing.
My prayer for this country ever since I grew up is to see a leader who will ACT when HE or SHE supposed to not a leader that is given to changes. Can Jonathan help at time like this?

Is this the begining Of Good and Accountable In Nigeria.....
I hope it is true.Nigeria is the only country in the world were ministers allocated fund dont give account how funds are used . Therefore dishonest and heartless minister(s) oftern pocket fund meant for the people they suppose to take care of. Consiquently, millions are left without common things like :clean water and electricity. A country in this state has no future as far as economy development is concern. This is evidence in current exodus of companies to Ghana, where clean water and flow of electricity is common and in every house. As a Nigerian born and educated in Ghana,there are vast difference bewtween Ghana and Nigeria when it comes to management resouces and provision of basic necessities of life. Ghana is far ahead of Nigeria, and it will take decades for Nigeria to catchup,if they they know it.Despite Nigeria vast resource it has failed to translate it into development to better the life of it people since it had independent. Ghana has made great effort considering it limited resource compare to Nigeria. Ghana today boast of first class road ,sanitation,sound education system,excellent utilities services,trusted Police force and efficient administration system ,which has became envy of it neigbours.Soon Ghana will become member of oil producers, this will be an aditiona to it earnings, which will see the country transformed to the level of South Africa. I am mindful of corruptions in all Black Africa countries,but the level in Nigeria supass that of any other countries in black Africa countries. Switzerland today has high GDP almost equal to that of Italy as a result of stolen money dumped in the country by silly Nigerians pliticians and other African politicians.Patrotic Nigerians are fed up now,their prayers and desire is honest leader,it does not matter where the person come from. We dont want these fools and thieves who called them selves educated but behaving like uneducated. Where is the education if you taking money meant for develoment your and dump it another country and die after without able to used it? What fools politicians.

HOW RELIABLE ARE GOVERMORS NOMINEES
I think the acting President should not take nominees from the corrupt governors that our country have instead i suggest that he look for credible and young, fresh blood Nigerians without godfathers to appoint at various position.
