But she was not joking too?

She asked Umahi to tell people around him to inteprete.

Why can't this pass off as a joke too?

Itsrm:


Anyone who thinks this statement was rude IMO has a low sense of humour. Umahi was simply joking. Even the lady was smiling initially.

Itsrm:


All you need to do is listen to the reaction of the people there when Umahi made his statement and when she responded to know which one qualifies as a joke.

iamoyindamola:

Lol
Cracking joke after demolition of another man business
So that situation warrants joke during interview abi

Itsrm:


He claimed they have no papers and still paid them off.

If Sanwo Olu did that to the people whose buildings he demolished, I believe they won't mind him cracking a joke.

Nigeria is broke, but Tinubu have 1 trillion Naira plus to build a coaster road when other strategic roads are in very deplorable shape.

Itsrm:


Also thought she was rude but what do I know.

A high court in Effurun, Delta State, has ordered famous blogger Linda Ikeji to pay N30,000,000 as general damages to Africa’s Neo-Black Movement (NBM) over a libellous publication.

NBM is a nonviolent, nongovernmental organisation (NGO) founded in 1977 by nine Nigerian students at the University of Benin. Neo-Blackism, promotes equality, research into traditional African culture, and the liberation of the Black race.

The NBM’s logo is an axe breaking the shackles of colonialism.

On 19 October 2021, Ikeji, in a publication on her blog, allegedly referred to NBM of Africa as a “dreaded cult group, , and criminal organisation”.

The way Dave Umahi carry this Landmark demolition for head, it leaves one to wonder whether him and the owner of Landmark get beef before now.

Sokoto to Badagry Highway is warming up.

iamoyindamola:

And you think it's possible

popizaino:


You will think every other federal road in this country is in the best condition with the way they are going about this coastal road.

TrebleChamp:
Saw the report yesterday and just hiss, ordinary Badagry to Orile road construction has taken 13 years and it's yet to be completed. The Lagos/Calabar coastal road might take 40 years to complete, that is if it isn't abandoned at some point...

I love Southern Nigerians

Buhari despite country broke built plenty road for North, even build enter Niger republic

A southerner dey there wan build road to connect most of the southern states but no na fellow southerners carry placard for head to protest

Later in 10yrs they will say why does North have better roads or infrastructure than us

When Buhari dey construct road, did we see Northern opposition like Atiku or Kwankwanso condemn it


Amaechi building Abuja to Kaduna rail, no Northern opposition
Amaechi building Lagos to Ibadan rail, Na southerners condemn am pass

Okay Tinubu carry the money go build Northern road since Southerners are satisfied and have too many roads already

raumdeuter:


Like Lagos to Ibadan railway was abandoned?

raumdeuter:


So until every road is in best condition before they build new ones?

Was Carter bridge in best condition before 3rd mainland was built?

TrebleChamp:
Buhari build road in the North, he didn't build a coastal road from Katsina to Lagos. Hope your Southern President will build and conplete Sango-Ota/Attan road, Sagamu/Benin Road, Benin/Okene Road, Warri/Port Harcourt road and all the major essential federal roads in the South while blowing trillion plus on Coastal roads.

izzou:


So, you now have a problem with Buhari now, after drumming for him for 8 years?

And this is you trying to bring a ethnic plot into the whole thing? Are Southerners protesting because they are building a road?

The outrage is because we are broke, but we are using 1 trillion naira to build one road. Just one. Does this make any economic sense to you?

Buhari don comot, and suddenly e don dey tribalistic.

TrebleChamp:
Like the 4th mainland bridge Tinubu and Co promised to deliver since 2002...

raumdeuter:


Where do you get that I have a problem with Buhari from?
I dont have a problem with Buhari and he did what he could for his people and the entire country while he was doing project for the North he was doing railway for Lagos Ibadan, doing 2nd Niger bridge both important projects for their various region

popizaino:


Will you abandon your car if it needs repair and buy a new one and when that one that you bought needs repair,you abandon it and buy another one?

By the way always compare apples with apples not with oranges.

izzou:


So why start with a Southerner and Northerner comparison? Abi na to whip up emotions?

popizaino:



Was Buhari constructing new roads and building on an existing road?

We want them to repair our roads. That is what we are calling for not constructing new ones.

Itsrm:


All you need to do is listen to the reaction of the people there when Umahi made his statement and when she responded to know which one qualifies as a joke.

raumdeuter:


That is because its Southerners who are more critical of road that will help them more

Northern opposition to Buhari, how many of them do you see criticizing the Abuja Kaduna road?

What is exactly the point of the criticism? Or we just critiize for the sake of it?

The main purpose of cutting subsidy is to invest the savings in Infrastructures, The infrastructure is being built, yet a section of the people are still complaining.
If 1trillion Naira is too much, how much makes sense to build a coastal road? How much was used to construct a similar coastal road in other countries

The importance of what the road will do to those states it covers makes economic sense to me. That was the same way 3rd Mainland did not make economic sense, Ikoyi link bridge does not make economic sense, 2nd Nigeria bridge did not make economic sense, Loko-Iweto bridge does not make sense until it does
