geographical zones. LIFE Life expetancy under GEJ
improved from 47 years in 2010 to 52 years in 2014
(UN)
CORRUPTION
According to the report released on December 3,
2014, Nigeria scored 27 out of out of a maximum 100
marks to clinch 136th position out of the 175 countries
surveyed. This means that Nigeria has ‘improved’ by
eight points against its 2013 rating as 144th out of 175
countries. A statement issued from the Berlin office of
Transparency International shows that more than two-
thirds or over 75 percent of the 175 countries
surveyed this year scored below 50, on a scale from 0.
Countries within the 0-50 range are perceived to be
strikingly corrupt.

an approximate distance of 354KM, Ilela/ Sokoto/Jega /
Kontagora, 408km, Aba/ Ikot Ekpene/ Itu/ Uyo /
Odukpani/Calabar, covering a total distance of 340km,
Kano/ Nguru/ Geshua/ Damaturu/ Maiduguri/ Gamburu

Katsina Ala/ Wukari/ Jalingo/Yola/ Maiduguri, 1669km.
The last of the corridor is the rail line from Port
Harcourt/ Aba/ Umuahia/ Enugu/ Lafia/ Jos/ Bauchi/
Biu/ Maidiguri, 550km POWER: Privatised PHCN and
Power Generating Plants undergoing constructions in
different states. 37 large dams completed nationwide,
10 dams rehabilitaed and 49 dams being built
nationwide. Economy: Nigerian economy was rebased
and became biggest economy in Africa, overtaking
South Africa. Previous leaders didn't see the need to
do this. Single digit inflation and sustained growth in
economy. Nigeria's economy is the 26th largest in the
world. In 2013, IMF classified Nigeria as a Middle
Income Nation from the Low Income Nation it had
been all the while. IMF also said that hunger has
reduced in Nigeria under Jonathan from 16% to
14.1%. KPMG also listed Nigeria's interstate High
Speed Rail project as one of the world’s top 100
infrastructure projects. The rail system which is
currently under construction would connect all states
of Nigeria to one another. Economic growth has been
at a constant minimum of 6%per annum in the lsat 3
years Agriculture has grown considerably, Nigeria
imports less food and produces more than enough for
export. The airports now wear new looks unlike before
when they looked like Oshodi bus stop of the OBJ era.
Elections are now free and fair and no snatching of
ballot boxes. Some horribly sentimental people would
not do the needful which is to try to verify these
things, they would still
continue on their hateful trajectory. In all of these
things that the GOD chosen has done, indeed he
deserve a second tenure in the office of the
presidency. Vote for the GOD chosen, President
Goodluck Jonathan

Op it is AKAGUM not Acagon

thank me later

babate3e:
Being a bachelor has taken me to several kinds of iya basira, nwayi owerri and other local canteens in lagos, so i felt i had to share my experience of various kind of people i meet:
1. The Oppressors:
These type of people are often very fat, they sit down and the girls come down to them to take their order, you hear stuffs like;
"4 wraps of pounded yam with egusi, put panla, ponmo, ogunfe, assorted and meat, with cold stout and bottle water".
N.B: all the meats, fish, ponmos, assorted are brought in several plates for them to eat as much as possible.
2. The Voracious eater:
These set of people are normally slim, and unlike the oppressors, they go to order their food, you can recognize them when you hear;
"madam give me 8 fufu, no 10 cos i never chop since morning, 3meat, 2ponmo, orobo coke (50cl) and 2 pure water".
3. The Acagons:
Na these ones tire me pass, they are the downgraded versions of the voracious eater, and they are well known by the madam. They believe in quantity over quality, you will hear;
"iya bisi give me as usual, and the madam puts 9 wraps of fufu with 1 lean meat"
NB: this set are the only ones that don't order for water, they prefer the one on the table, used for washing hand".
4. The formers:
These ones are mostly hated by the acagons and they are mostly a group of young girls sponsored by a maga. You will see there table filled with all sorts of meats, fish, ponmos, assorted and several chilled drinks, only for them to eat part of it and leave the rest to the feasting eyes of the acagon and voracious eater. After they leave, you start hearing comments especially from the acagons like " haaaaa embarassed, ota aje ni awon omo yii o ( this girls are enemy of money o).
5. Father xmas:
This list is not complete without them, they are the popular ones in the hood, the acagons and voracious eater always pray to meet them in the canteen. If he enters, you start hearing "baba agbalagba, chairman, i remain loyal sir"
and he never dissapoints them too.
Feel free to add yours!!!!!!!!!!!

You can form and go to Mr.Bigg's, Tantalizer, etc.

But if you need real food, na buka way.


Everything is fresh and tastes closer to home cooking unlike Mr. Bigg's, etc. that cook rice halfway, garnish it with extra maggi/knorr and pepper
and expect the "latter-day formers" to fvck over N1500/plate. If belle never run you after Mr. Bigg's, Tantalizer, etc, you no go respect yourself
go Mama Iyabo joint go chop.
grin grin grin

Buka all the way!
