Please anybody in the house that has plied the Lagos-Ibadan road in recent times should help confirm/refute the first part of the Chairman of FERMA's statement in the quote below, while we wait for the 10-lane agenda. They did allocate N3 billion to this road in the 2013 budget - we are halfway through 2013 already.

Quote:
“Lagos/Ibadan route is better than what it used to be. It is going to be a pure reconstruction and realignment as the government tends to increase the number of each side lane to five.”

[size=14pt]In any case, this is another one for the records.[/size]

[size=14pt]Lagos/Ibadan expressway to be 10 lanes —FERMA[/size]
Written by Shehu Bello-Lagos Wednesday, 19 June 2013 00:00 font size Print Email

The Federal Government is planning to make the controversial Lagos/Ibadan expressway a 10-lane road.
Chairman of the Federal Road Maintenance Agency (FERMA), Mr Jide Adeniji, made this known in Lagos on Tuesday.
He also disclosed that in the next two years, every federal road in the country would be motorable.
He spoke with reporters at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders’ forum.
According him, “you can see that there has being a tremendous improvement on our roads, because all my men work days and nights and I can tell you that in the next two years, every federal road in the country will be motorable, as Ferma is working hard towards that.
“All this was made possible by the transformation agenda of President Goodluck Jonathan.”
Speaking on the state of Lagos/Ibadan expressway, the Ferma boss said the road was on its way to redemption as there would be reconstruction of the road.
“Lagos/Ibadan route is better than what it used to be. It is going to be a pure reconstruction and realignment as the government tends to increase the number of each side lane to five.”
“The Minister of Works had talked about it and there is an agenda from the Ministry of Works and by the time the agenda comes out, proper attention concerning Lagos/Ibadan expressway will be given to it,” he said.

koruji: No comment for now - just for the records.
By December 31st 2013 I hope to be able to say "complete" to President GEJ on this one, even though it falls far short of what that road deserves.

Tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock.....

@insincere9nigerian
The bolded below is what I refer to when saying that Julius Berger's "patch-work" last year was to allow GEJ to get to RCCG and promptly announced that it had no contract to work on the road once GEJ was done receiving blessings!!!
This is not the way a president should administer a nation.

Since you have no home training you will start and expect others to continue a political argument at a close friend's daughter's marriage.

It won't be a surprise either - you and Dumb Adeyemi are blessed with the same "wisdom".

PointB:


Shame. What kind of man run away from the opportunity to sell his idea? Only an opportunist does that! Tinubu's romance with Buhari is not based on any solid principle, just the opportunistic grasp for power.

Again, shame!

What cabal did he dismantle? Where are 100s of billions that these people stole? Which jail terms have they received? Is the subsidy level still not ballooning even as petrol is in short supply?

clint77ng: A man who had the gut/courage to dislodge/dismantle oil subsidy cabal is still called corrupt. Naija na wao.

Don't hold your breadth...

fagin1982: This is serious...The Government needs to brace up for these challenges..If this info is somehow real ,then we are in for a long ride .God is still supreme..He will see us thru

I guess you are being introduced to this character.
He is a chameleon - simple as that.
He is not rational at all - a pure chameleon.

django1:
One minute you're rational the very next you're a rabid dog.

You know what they say about the scoundrel, right?
Well, the scoundrel never fails to live up to expectations !!!

This is the kind of silly statements he used to make about Boko Haram.
What does it say about you when all your commanders are incompetent and the country has endowed you with power/resources to make necessary changes, yet you are taking to the airwaves complaining about their incompetence ?

Sec5: If u complain to us sir,who do we complain to?

Bad belleism is worrying you.
You think roads are going to be constructed with your words?
No, it takes money - and it is these private businesses that will pay the taxes that will allow the kind of public projects you will like to see to be implemented.

No wonder Fashola said people are hard to please - build bridge for them, ask them to pay a toll, they refuse. Get private businesses to put up investments that will generate revenue to build more roads and bridges, they condemn.

Go back to ya village where you can drink, eat and travel on hot air !!!

dplordx: with the whole of alimosho in pitch darkness, and the roads cluttered with potholes and so much insecurity, this is exactly what we need.
you eko_ile are nuts like your fraud of a governor. this a$$hole called fashola rigged street lights from oshodi down to ikeja, and stopped at ikeja.
he has clearly abandoned the same f00ls who voted him into power the 1st and 2nd time. and now hes doing a skycrapper.
im certain these animal called fash wont be winning a 3rd term if the constitution allows one

The reason GEJ is the most [size=14pt]MALIGNED [/size]leader is because he is also perhaps the most confused and [size=14pt]MISALIGNED[/size] leader we have ever had.

GEJ's convictions are only those that protect his political fortunes and he will do/say anything to that end - everything else (security of life and property, fight against corruption, etc.) be damned.

[size=14pt]He should get his priorities STRAIGHT.[/size]

I think your last line hit the nail on the head.

Libya will not be quickly forgotten by the policy-makers in Washington - despite Mr. "Bmb Bmb" Iran - aka McCain.
I think the Middle East is headed towards Somalia. Since US forces left that country it has not known peace - they have fought each other for 20+ years with half-hearted interventions by the powers that be. The US stepped in to stop the slaughter that Ghaddafi promised to conduct on his people, hoping to help the cause of people-rule, but many in the ME complained vehemently. Add to that the killing of the US ambassador in Libya and you have a US that will not step into another internally generated ME crisis for the foreseeable future - except when it involves Israel.

Heck some of the underground hawks might even be hoping for an all out Sunnis/Shites war in the ME so the extremists can kill each other off - while standing ready to protect Israel and perhaps make Iran a collateral damage along the way.

So, look for the Obama administration to supply some weapons, but nothing that will be a game changer any time soon.

Prof Corruption:
The most plausible scenario is continuation of proxy wars with destruction of Syria.

A prophet is not honored in his own home.

I also have issues with the quality of our movies but won't condemn them in these words. Recently met a total stranger from Ghana who on hearing that I am Nigerian proudly announced that he has over 200 DVDs of Nigerian movies - and then added "they are great".

No matter how you cut it - the average Nigerian and other Africans enjoy these movies !!! So if you know a way to make these movies better - speak up instead of condeming them.

50calibre: Nigerian movies are like jokes, I wonder how any right thinking person can cough out money to buy these nonsense they keep churning out. See how amateurish that set looks, it probably a N500k budget film, but would rake in millions.

GEJ better reign in this eye-serving NAMA people. They are helping him to step on toes in a way that could lead to serious problems when GEJ leaves Aso Rock. This same NAMA people will gladly Judas GEJ when that time comes. Won't be surprised if GEJ runs away after his term ends.

~Bluetooth:

From Amaechi,to oshiomhole and now,wamakko yet some pdp stooges on NL will come and tell us that all these is not politically-motivated.Jonathan can't use EFCC because he's as corrupt or even more than these governors which is why he's using stella to witch-hunt them.I expect the likes of Babangida and co to taste their own pound of flesh as barbecued by Emperor Jonathan !

Well as fela talk,they are all Vagabonds In Power !

There are idiots everywhere. Just like this fool is the idiot of their family, you are an idiot around here. Both of you are blessed with jaundiced brains. In his case, it causes him to see an enemy as a friend. In your case, it means that when a single Yoruba man farts in public your sick brain jumps to the conclusion that all Yorubas must have also farted in public at the same time. You are both imbeciles with the brain capacity of a fruitfly - which is perhaps an insult to the fruitfly !!!

2Willywilly: Keii Yorubas, na so una bi? why this too much love for Egunje. Just give a Yoruba man Egunje Satan de Devil turns immediately the holiest.

You are not suggesting that you can't keep your virginity and produce/advance knowledge at the same time. Are you?
Stop been so absolutist - even production/knowledge is for the SATISFACTION of the human soul.

sauer: while other nations bother about production and advancing human knowledge, my people are concerned about not having se/x until they marry. Just what exactly is the importance attached to this experience?

You just wait and you will understand. Many of his posts are indeed great but he can be unreasonably rigid to a fault. Even if GEJ begins to drink with the skulls of Nigerians Rossik will see nothing bad enough for anyone to complain about - especially if the complain comes from a foreign source.

Red-Light:
i do not know why some people branded you pdp paid agent when you are more objective in your opinions than any of them.

You are sick.

SouthEast:
The journalist did not show sensitivity to his readership by mentioning where the victim came from, especially at such a volatile time as this.

This is silly. Do you know how many 1000s BH killed before GEJ moved his butt? The only reason he moved was because foreign intelligence agencies woke him up to the reality that those animals were about to declare a republic up north. Even in my armchair here I could see that was where they were going - talkless of a man entrusted with the entire intelligence apparatus of a nation. In reality GEJ did not have to wait until his nation was being balkanized. The cries of 1000s of souls should have moved a true leader to deliver the death blow to those beasts long ago.

zanga420: perfect analysis, goverment is about being humane not brutal. I'm really happy how GEJ has handled boko haram, free n fair elections(edo, ondo etc). Its those that lack intelligence that turn everything to force. Besides all these saying Jonathan handled boko haram late, would've been the 1st to accusse him of being too froward to attack the north(that he hates the north) and the accussation 'll be in that order, hateful hypocrisy is not they way forward, if we must move forward.

There is no need to gloat to feel good about good things in the SW. Let's proclaim what we are accomplishing by all means without belittlening others - it belittles us too.

sheyie2007: Awesome... Meanwhile, northern leaders are still seeking amnesty for boko haram

@OP thanks for the nice pictures.
Your tag message is great by the way.

Eko Atlantic:

You are comparing GEJ's incompetent action to the America's NSA. Sleep and death comparison.

First, anybody who believes any government that claims they are not snooping on your tel. calls in this age of terrorism need to have his/her head examined.

Second, GEJ's assignment of a national security affair to a foreign country is the most egregious action any president can take - at least openly. It was a dangerous move not only for our present but into the far future of Nigeria.

Hovabuzz: There is this issue and discussion going on in this social media platform. I brought it here on Nairaland for us to air our views and it,. it is the recently leaked information that white house has access to top internet companies in U.S like Google, facebook.. Here is it..
All hell was losed last week when Americans discovered that white House (Presidency) has access to the servers of top American Companies like Google, Facebook, skype and Yahoo. The information was leaked out last week. The main reason they gave was because of National security. They are protecting America and Americans. But they are also spying on other countries of the world. If American Government has access to these servers, that means they are spying me, Nigerians and other rest of the world. I use facebook and we all use facebook too, google too. That means no be Only Baba God dey see wetin we dey do, another Eye from America and facebook dey see us too. When news broke out that Gej signed a contract with an Isreali IT company to monitor what Nigerians are doing on the internet, everyone was screaming, rejecting it, it is an invasion of Privacy. But in America the Government monitor the citizens and residents on the internet, they use it to prevent crime and also for National security purposes. The American Government don't tell the people before doing this but for this one they did! they are just spying the whole world, do you think they are going too far in having access to servers of facebook, google and other top American internet companies? what do you think?

@automaticcarzz: Good insight here.
@OP: You need to shed your chameleon ways. First, you list all manners of undemocratic and despotic tendencies of GEJ, then you declared him the best thing since buttered bread. Please pity your own oblongata - stop feeding it confusing messages.

There is no doubt that GEJ found some good people - people that are hitching to make Nigeria better - to serve in his cabinet. However, his indecisive, lack of clear thinking and corrupt ways are preventing these people from making much headway. He is incapable of making serious security decisions until forced to do so, but would come out to say things that make you wonder what he does just before speaking.

When GEJ crossed the length and breadth of Nigeria proclaiming TOTAL TRANSFORMATION at the top of his voice we did not realize he meant reviving a 100 year-old train service that will move Nigerians at TWICE THE SPEED OF HORSEBACK RIDING and re-modelling TAXI PARK AIRPORTS. If this is the transformation you are dancing naked over, I wonder what non-transformation under GEJ would have looked like.

automaticcarzz: So much I hate Obasanjo, he was better than retardeen Ebele Jonathan. Without Obasanjo's introduction and revolution of GSM service, you wouldn't be here surfing on your phone. Obasanjo paid off our debt, but Jonadunce has mortgaged your life for generations to come. Obasanjo wouldn't have waited over two years before confronting Boko boys, but Jonadunce waited till it was politically convinient before he acted. Obasanjo would not have offered amnesty to people who killed, maimed and murdered innocent men, women and children but incompetent Jonathan offered amnesty to killers. Jonadunce could not get a competent Finance Minister he went for Iweala who served under Obasanjo. Obasanjo left 67 billion dollars surplus but we hardly have 13 billion dollars in reserve. I rate Obasanjo fist three years in power as 30/100 but I have to rate Jonadunce first three years as 10/100. I am being liberal with my grade.

Really?
Although he is probably the one I despise most, for thinking he can "awoof" become president on the back of another hard-fighting Yoruba son, he was still "president".

Otherwise, what do we call all the usurpers that dominate the list.

naptu2: Shonekan wasn't "president".

Yes, that is another complication they are not thinking about in making this recommendation.

psalmizt: My question on this successor thingy is, what if the successor then refuses to assume the throne because he knows his chances of running 2 terms will be scuffled? He simply refuses and then they have to call a general election. Not sure that is a route that you will want to take 1year into a 4year term.

Thanks. This is close to the solution I propose above.
Obviously, this is a much simpler problem to handle than our legislatures are making it.

kunlekunle: Amendment XXII (Ratified February 27, 1951)

Section 1 No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President, when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.

Could you tell us more about this or point to a link?

kunlekunle: since we run presidential system like us, why not a similar portion of their constitution to address the problem.
the same case scenario (yaradua's death) was resolved in the 50s.

I pray Dangote can help get this done.
He would have started on this already if Ya'radua/GEJ did not foolishly return the $800 million he and another bidder paid to take over our "dead" refineries.

http://www.punchng.com/news/dangote-to-site-8bn-refinery-in-olokola-ftz/
JUNE 6, 2013 BY DAYO OKETOLA 18 COMMENTS
Indications emerged on Wednesday that the $8bn refinery proposed by Africa’s richest man and President, Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, would be located at the Olokola Free Trade Zone, Ondo State.

A senior official of the company, who asked not to be named because he was not authorised to speak on the matter, told our correspondent that the refinery would be located in the OFTZ.

One of the factors considered for the location of the refinery, according to the source, is that it is the biggest deep seaport in the country and other big industries are located there; besides, Ondo is one of the oil producing states in the country.

The source added that stable crude oil supply was also a vital element in the choice of the location for the refinery because Chevron and a number of other oil producers had oil fields in the oil-rich region of the state.

On why Lagos was not chosen, industry analysts said though the state was a coastal state, Dangote would have to build pipelines to transfer crude from oil fields to the refinery, thereby incurring additional expenses.

The source explained that necessary approvals had been secured for the refinery, adding that the Dangote Group was just waiting for the necessary equipment with which to build the refinery to arrive.

Another source told our correspondent that Dangote, who was listed on Monday as the first African entrepreneur to lay claim to a $20bn fortune and one of the 25 richest men in the world, would put down $4bn of his personal fortune to build the refinery, while international financial institutions had raised the balance.

Dangote had in April announced plans to invest up to $8bn in building an oil refinery with capacity for around 400,000 barrels a day by late 2016.

The capacity, experts had said, would almost double Nigeria’s current refining strength.

“This will really help not only Nigeria but sub-Saharan Africa. There has not been a new refinery for a long time in sub-Saharan Africa,” Dangote had told Reuters in a telephone interview.

Nigeria currently has the capacity to produce some 445,000 barrels per day in four refineries, which operate well below that owing to decades of mismanagement and corruption in Africa’s leading energy producer.

The country relies on subsidised imports for 80 per cent of its fuel needs.

Dangote said the country’s ability to import fuel would soon be challenged.

“In five years, when our population is over 200 million, we won’t have the infrastructure to receive the amount of fuel we use. It has to be done,” he said.

Past efforts to build refineries have often been delayed or cancelled, but analysts have said Dangote should be able to build a profitable Nigerian refinery, owing to his past successes in industry and his strong government connections.

Analysts have said previous attempts to get the refineries going were held back by vested interests such as fuel importers profiting from the status quo.

“The people who were supposed to invest in refineries, who understand the market, are benefiting from there being no refineries because of the fuel import business. Some are going to try to interfere,” Dangote said.

He said making a new refinery run at a profit would work even if the government failed to scrap the subsidised fuel price that has deterred others from investing.

“We’ve done our numbers and the numbers are okay,” he said.

Dangote, who spoke on the sidelines of the recent World Economic Forum on Africa in Cape Town, South Africa, said he had secured $4.25bn loans from banks to build the refinery.

He said the loan was secured from “two offshore banks and some Nigerian banks.”

If you read everything there are some good recommendations in the proposed amendment.

However, the headline recommendation is like killing a housefly with a gun.

My simpler solution to the GEJ imbrogilio: If a VP serves out more than 1 year of a dead or impeached president he can only run for another single term, otherwise he is allowed to contest for two terms.

The real solution is to straighten out the system so that we minimize the chance of a president's death in office. The senate's recommendation seems to envision frequent deaths of presidents far into Nigeria's future !!!

My real recommendation is to do away with a single presidency for a joint, never-ending, presidency consisting of 6 or so geopolitical representatives.

[size=14pt][b]Under this presidency each region will serve as president for two years in a pre-determined turn. National elections for geo-political "presidents" take place every four years, but each one must be re-confirmed or replaced by a vote of the joint assembly of geo-political states every two years. Each of the geopolitical presidents will hold national security, policing and international diplomacy portfolios (two per portfolio), while ministers are appointed by the presidency/legislature to handle economic development and other non-security related portfolios. National level decisions would be taken jointly by the entire body through open (and frequent votes), with the current president allowed the final decision when there is a tie. The job of each portfolio "president" would mainly consist of implementing decisions and bringing issues requiring decisions to the body. I would also reduce our bicameral legislature to a unicameral one, with a size that is mid-way between the current Senate and House of Assembly.[/b][/size]

THE Senate Committee on Constitution Amendment, on Tuesday, presented details of the new amendment being sought to the 1999 Constitution, with a proposal barring a vice president or deputy governor from seeking election after completing the tenure of a deceased president or governor.
Chairman of Senate Committee on Constitution Review, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, who presented the details, said a vice president or deputy governor who completed the tenure of office of a president or governor who died in office would not be eligible to seek election to the office in future elections.
The proposals also sought amendments to Sections 136 and 181 of the constitution, to stop the successor to a president or governor who died in office from contesting election for the same office in any subsequent election.
Clause 11 of the report wanted Section 136 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) to be substituted with a new Section 136 (2) to read: “Where a vice-president-elect or vice-president succeeds the president-elect or president, in accordance with Subsection (1) of this section, he shall not be eligible to contest for the office of the president in any subsequent election.”
Also, Clause 17 of the draft bill wanted Section 181 to be altered to read: “Where a deputy governor-elect or deputy governor succeeds the governor-elect or governor, in accordance with subsection (1) of this section, he shall not be eligible to contest for the office of the governor in any subsequent election.”
The Senate also sought to strengthen the legislative arm by ensuring that bills sent to the president for assent automatically became law after 30 days.
Other issues highlighted in the amendment report included devolution of powers to states, recognition of geopolitical zones, local governments autonomy, fiscal federalism, first line charge to state assemblies, separation of Office of Attorney General from Minister of Justice at both federal and state levels, and mayoral status for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), among others.
The report also sought the abolition of joint state and local government accounts to guarantee local government autonomy.
Against the practice where state governments disbursed funds to the local goverment, the Senate also recommended direct payment to local governments from the Federation Account.
The Constitution Review Committee, headed by Ekweremadu, had 48 other senators as members.
Presenting the report before the Senate, Ekweremadu said the bill to further alter the provisions of the constitution was necessary, in view of the need to make the constitution workable within the prevailing circumstances.
He also said the objective of the bill was to remove contradictions and make the constitution more practical and relevant to the need of Nigerians in the 21st Century.
He said there was the need to make an elaborate provision in Section (9) of the Constitution, for a procedure to bring an entirely new constitution into being.
“This is predicated on the belief that the incremental approach to constitutional amendment may not be sustainable in the long run. The need may arise in the future for a whole new document,” he said.
In the same vein, Clauses six and eight were seeking to alter Sections 58 and 100 of the constitution to make a bill become law at the expiration of 30 days, if the president or governor, respectively, withheld assent.
Section 58 (5) states: “Where the president witholds his assent and the bill is again passed by each House by two-thirds majority, the bill shall become law and the assent of the President shall not be required.”
But the report wanted a new Section 58, subsection (5A) to read: “Where the president neither signifies that he assents or witholds assent, the bill shall, at the expiration of 30 days, become law.”
Clause Seven sought an alteration of Section 84 with a new subsection (5A) to read: “Any person who has held office as President or Deputy President of the Senate, Speaker or Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, shall be entitled to pension for life at a rate equivalent to the annual salary of the incumbent President or Deputy President of the Senate, Speaker or Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives.”
This was againt the subsisting Section 84, which excluded the four principal officers of the National Assembly from among public office holders who shall be paid remuneration, salaries and allowances as may be prescribed by the National Assembly, but determined by the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC).
While the extant Section 150 gave an approval of the appointment of the Attorney-General of the Federation, who is also a Minister of the Federal Government, Clause 13 of the Senate Committee recommended an Attorney-General of the Federation, who “shall not be subject to the direction or control of any other authority or person in the performance of the functions of his office.”
Similarly, Clause 19 wanted a new Section 195 of the constitution to separate the Office of the Attorney General of the state from the office of the Commissioner for Justice.
Clause 14 also recommended direct payment to local governments from the Federation Account, while a new subsection (6A) of Section 162 stated that such payment “shall not apply to a local government without a democratically elected council; where elections have not been held for reasons of natural disaster, serious breach of peace and other emergencies.”
A proposed new Section 121 in the draft bill suggested the creation of first-line charge for certain bodies and offices at the state level.
“To engender accountability and efficient service delivery, a provision is made for state houses of Assembly, State Independent Electoral Commissions, Auditor-General of the State and the Attorney-General of a state to get their funding directly from the State Consolidated Revenue Fund,” Ekweremadu said.
The report was also seeking to bring certain matters that appeared on exclusive legislative list to concurrent lists and ensure that states could legislate on such items.
Such items include arbitration, aviation, health care, land and agriculture, railways, prisons, public complaints, road safety, stamp duties, wages, youth and environment.
Senate President, David Mark, who rounded off deliberations, said the Senate would commence debate on the report after its two-week recess which commences today.
He said all senators would be made to vote on each item, adding that voice vote would not apply.
Briefing newsmen on the report, Senate spokesman, Eyinnaya Abaribe, said it would be debated when the Senate resumed from its two-week break.
He said contrary to speculations, the Senate Committee on Constitution Review did a great job towards furthering the cause of democracy.
Emergency: Northern senators seek reversal of FG’s power on state funds
The Northern Senators Forum is seeking a reversal of the powers granted to the president on the use of state funds to prosecute the emergency rule.
The forum, which met in Abuja, on Wednesday, sought the concurrence of the Senate to the position taken by the House of Representatives on the use of state funds under emergency rule.
Sources close to the forum told the Nigerian Tribune on Wednesday that the senators had taken a position to push for a similar position taken by the House.
It was learnt that the senators expressed the fear that the states could be completely crippled if their funds were appropriated for the sake of emergency.

Find a better picture of Yar'adua please !

There you have it folks. Our "government" cannot secure roads unless it tolls them. Ah ah - the joke is on anyone who commends such nonsensical reasoning.

Look at you dancing in the street. We are all here as GEJ is practicing full blast tribal governance. The other day he said to Igbos visiting him in Aso Rock that even in the north they were the ones who put him in Aso Rock. All it means is that Nigeria need to search high and low for real leaders come 2015 - definitely not GEJ and perhaps not Buhari.

speeder: Now tell me, between GEJ and APC, who's the retardeen and the clueless?
Bunch of extrimist.

Exactly - rudderless govt.

Reptyle: I thought it was 10,000MW by December 2013
