We old people create problems for innocent young Nigerians - GEJ says

While speaking at the launch of the Youth Employment in Agriculture Programme at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, yesterday, President Jonathan said that while young Nigerians are venturing into music, acting and other activities that bring glory to Nigeria, the older generation are in politics insulting, abusing themselves and causing problems for young Nigerians. 
"For the Nigerian young men and women, those who we have seen today and the ones outside there, we appreciate and commend you because anything that you are involved, you bring glory to this country. Anything that the old people like us are involved in, it is always problems. Young people are involved in sports, soccer, athletics and so on, and within the period that I have been here as Vice President and President, they have always been bringing glory to us." 
"Young people are involved in the movie, popularly called Nollywood, and this continues to bring glory to us. Young people are involved in music, like D-Banj, and they always continue to bring glory to us. But see politics that old people like us are involved in, we continue to quarrel and abuse ourselves everyday and create problems for innocent Nigerians. So, we believe that the future of this country is in the hands of young people. The young Nigerians will surely take us to where we want to be. One day, you will take us to the moon. I believe in the young, creative and talented people. Surely, we will create enabling environment for you because you stand for the future of this country and you will make this country great.” the president said

He should ask himself....What I like about Blackberry is the pinging and the smartness, whenever I ping someone and that person read my pinging it'll show me R. And that R mean the person has read my pinging I really love bold 5, and the way I used to move from one application like facebook to whatsApp and to other applications, and whenever I take pictures with my Blackberry bold 5. It always clear and finer is my number one among the rest phones pictures, also with Blackberry protect when my former Bold 2 was stolen, it was Blackberry protect that help me to get all my contact back because I used Blackberry protect to back-up all my contact before it was stolen, that is what I really love about blackberry.

This is just so sad!!!!

I don't know if Mr President is aware of this or not.

The so called programme "Youth Employment in Agriculture Programme and the Fund for Agricultural Finance in Nigeria" is all a fluke!!!

The essence of this programme is to help young agricultural graduates establish an agricultural firm of their choice to the growth of the agricultural sector of this country but all na lie.


All the DGs involved which were put in charge in all the southwest region which I am sure of, did not release the funds, so which empowerment are they talking about! Abi na ghost them they give the money to ni? they embezzled the money and failed to release the funds for the candidates to make use for their establishment as I was a victim in ogun state !
They promised to fund and help established each person as stated in the approval letter but all na story for the gods after we went through all the trainings and completed our part.
Our oga failed to release the money. He embezzled the money!!!! and leaving us stranded, just so sad!!!

After narrowing us down to 10 people which should be the ones benefiting for the programme, he intentionally failed 5 more people for the training and sent them home because he wanted to embezzled their money, is that not enough for him!
He failed to release the money of the remaining 5 people which I was among.

Why organizing stuffs like this when the so called ogas at the top keep embezzling the funds and leaving the innocent candidates picked for the programme stranded after all the stress and rigors they make them go through, risking life and wasting time going to Abuja to sign the fvcking shit document and collecting the approval letter which is all a waste of time because one oga who the federal government has put in charge for each region has refused to release the funds. they failed their end of the bargain after the whole training by releasing the funds.

Omg!!! This man embezzled the money and nothing was done about it! the government didn't act!!!

What shocked me most was that it was all covered up as if nothing happened!

This country shaaa!!! It's only God that can help us.


Please you all should not be fooled/deceived by all the Fund programmes organized by the government as 90% are not genuine because the ogas in charge will embezzle the money. Although heard from some of my colleagues that some (i mean some oO and not all oO) DGs in the northern part released the funds for their candidates to make use of it for their establishment. Happy for them shaaa!

But this hurts and pains to the bones shaaa after wasting your time, the little money you have and praying day and night to be selected for the programme and to end up with nothing. Na waa oooO!

God will judge everyone making life uncomfortable for the citizens of this country!!!

God bless naija!
