Nigerian public officials do not even bother to hide their deep hatred of, and contempt for the Nigerian taxpayer anymore. And we deserve every bit of it.

12 months ago, I posted on a thread on this board about the outright refusal of the PDP-led federal government to do anything about the Lagos-Ibadan expressway. Instead of building the road, federal agents fed us children's tales about 'powerful forces' being responsible for the failure of the concessionaire (Wale Babalakin's Bicourtney) to deliver.

The road is much worse now with the rainy season in full swing.

Today, the 'honourable' minister of works is feeding gullible Nigerians with more lies and untruths about "transaction advisers" and newly inaugurated "project steering committes".

The Lagos-Ibadan expressway is not a theoretical abstraction for me. I have travelled on that road for over 30 years. I have seen people die on that road. I have had a couple of near-misses myself. I have arrived on accident scenes literally seconds after the event. I have close relatives who suffered violent attacks by armed robbers on that road. There is very little anyone can tell me about that road that I don't already know.

Mike Onolememen's comments are a grave insult to the memory of those who died needless deaths on that federal highway. But he will get away with it because the ordinary Nigerian is a talker and not a doer; he expects very little from his leaders and demands even less.

As for Dedeike and D-explorer . . . I say well done. Keep up the work you are doing. You will get your reward in due course, as sure as night follows day. You have succeeded in your propaganda because of the stupidity and clannishness of millions of small-minded Nigerians who do not have any high minded ideas of how to put together a funcional nation-state in the 21st century. The issue is not GEJ, though you would like it to be, because that suits your purposes just fine. I always ask people this question: "Are you better off after 12 years of the PDP? Are you truly better off?"

They usually have no answer.

maryjames9: Guys,if i have to point to two things this administration have achieved so far,i'll say privatisation of PHCN and revealn the level of coruptn in the oil sector. As much as everyone know as evidence from my previous post dat i am a Gej critic,i think we should give this guy some slack. It's not easy correcting the wrong of decades of bad government,so not easy for Nigerians to trust her leaders, edo governorship election show that he is commited to free and fair election too. I'm not 1 of his adent supporters like Mr Turkey or beaf Gej arse licking 40 man laptop chief commitee,but from what i'm hearing, Gej seems commited to helping Nigeria

By 2015, GEJ would have spent half a decade in power. Could he have reduced Nigeria problems by half by then with the way things are unfolding now. No.
What you don't have, you can't offer. Ebele is too dull to make a significant mark. Forget about the composition of his cabinet. The guy is just too dull.

How did I missed this thread yesterday God, two committees to investigtate a road dualization project that started in OBJ's administration.
Dumb DEDEIKE and his PA JMAINE will still come out here with the combobulated brain to say the road was awarded by GEJ then consider it as a milestone of this failed govt.
A conssesioned road project under turnkey arrangement.
Bi-Courtney Highway Services Ltd will toll the roads for agreed period of time so as to realised their invested resources and make huge profits off Nigerians,in the near future of major roads will be constructed under turnkey arrangement so Nigerians will pay to roads that is supposed to be free to the citizenry.

During last presidential election, there was so much talk of " divine mandate"; some churches were in tow singing for Jonathan. What happened to all that "divine" and those who were saying he(Jonathan) was God's chosen?

I have said it before, the setting up of committees for everything is tangible evidence of the fact that government has failed. In a normal, functioning society, the business of governance is carried on by the cabinet, with their supporting ministries and parastatals. But here, governance has been outsourced to committees, while the relevant ministries with their bloated workforce are left idle.

Fresh air. *scoffs*

One indirect tin dis report has said but which most of us on dis site av failed to notice (read inbetween d lines) is dt GEJ Govt is simply trying to re-award d concession for dis all-important road to Bi-Courtney again. D initial 'contract' in 2009 was worth N99billion,.....mark my words,dis tym Bi-Courtney wud pocket a minimum of N200-N300billion. GEJ I hail you!!!
