D governor must be nigerian version of obama not mandela o cox mandela dey live for umuahia

Nice one.
I think the roads are good and neat because of the low population, which implies low pressure on roads.

Who de yarn say bauchi now pass gombe goods roads? Guy just add 52 roads plus four dualize roads on top of what goje did(cut c dankwambo). Yuguda 4 the past 6 years had not constructed 5 good roads for bauchi. I knew both states like d back of my hand.

How much were u paid?....

Campaign for 2015 sha,carry on

Ok.

Now I see why they escape so easily using bikes...roads are so smooth and free bad belly

Is Nigeria population indeed up to the projected 160 million?

-----This was the difficult question my Kenyan friend asked me last week. He couldn't logically fathom why a country as moderately small as Nigeria (in land mass) can cram up to 160 million peoples at a go. I guess these pictures are admirable answers to his incisive question.

Gombe is a very beautiful state,I know this because I did my youth service there @ Govt Girls college,Doma in d outskirt of the state capital.I most confess it has one of d best road network in Nigeria.

they use their money because no much population

Op, can you please post Hurumin Da'o and Angwan Biliri roads?

Gombe 5 star hotel underconstruction (3 yeas ago) now its complete.

Those saying that there is low population let me give you a simple logic on population density:

When you take 1 million people and put into ebonyi they will be densely populated cos of the small land mass now if you take those same 1 million people to Gombe they will be sparsely populated due to the fact that Gombe is like 5 times ebonyi.

#simplelogic

Took it on phone not clear

Did any one notice that all u see is good road big land mass but no population, wonder why they say north has too much people than other part of the country, this pic says a lot about North human population.

By the way North has good road.

Emir of gombe palace worthy of a king

ATBU abi poly?

the former.

I lived there briefly as an infant but Gombe seems to have developed into a nice, laid-back sub-saharan town. The kind of place you can chill out far from the maddening crowds. A thousand curses on Boko Haram!!

To the OP, thank you. Pictures like these is why I will always embrace "Nigeria". From Sokoto to Calabar, Badagry to Maiduguri ... it's my country.

I enjoy these brief glimpse into various aspects of Nigerian life, knowing I can visit, when I want to. Unity in diversity indeed but God forbid, if the ethno-warriors have their ways, na to begin queue for visa be dat!

Thanks OP, I wish i could get anybody from Minna Niger state to post this kindda pictures. I really want to see how Minna looks like now. I was born and bred there.
Any nairalander from MINNA? please do this for us

To get a simple answer, your Kenyan friend could check up the populations and geography of Bangladesh and Java in Asia. Closer home, he could compare Rwanda's population density with that of 9ja.

Yea Op just posted exactly what i saw few days ago as i passed through Gombe （capital ）The scene got worse as you move away。I passed a night in one town or is local govt called CHAM, there was no water, imagine in this age they drink from a dirty pond。we could not even buy food。thats the irony of structural development minus human development [/color][color=#000099]

76Naira: Good work so far. However, most of the roads lack an edge barrier. This means drivers are not protected from the gutters especially at intersections.
Nigerian projects hardly show complete regard for safety.

I agree with you about protection from gutters but we normally drive where there are no gutters at all . Sometime even no roads!

Great work op.. But can u tell me why the Emir"s palace is still under contruction? That palace seems never to get completed. What baffles is that when I used to visit Gombe for holidays as a kid I realised that each time I was there the palace kept growing bigger to the extent that almost all the houses surrounding the palace have been demolished and the land has been used to extend the palace.. 15 years on and the palace is still under construction!
I won't be suprised if by 2012 the palace would occupy 50percent of the land in Gombe.
By the way I haven't been to Gombe in 10years but I might be travelling down next week for some work.. So if u live there and u can offer to show me around kindly send me a pm. Thankx

Gombe a gbe wa oo

more roads and buildings, FEWER PEOPLE!

where are the people?

UNTIL WE START REJECTING MEDIOCRITY IN THIS COUNTRY, WE WILL CONTINUE TO BE A LAUGHING STOCK IN THIS WORLD.

LOOK AT THE LOUSY ''ROADS'' THIS IGNORAMUS OF A GOVERNOR IS BUILDING AND PEOPLE ARE HEAPING PRAISE ON HIM?

I MEAN, ARE NAIRALANDERS SO UNINFORMED THAT THEY DON'T KNOW HOW ROADS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE BUILT?

WHAT ARE THOSE OPEN GUTTERS DOING ALL OVER THE ''NEW ROADS''?

WHERE ARE THE PEDESTRIAN SIDEWALKS?

HOW CAN YOU BUILD A ROAD WITHOUT A SIDEWALK?

WHY CAN'T HE COVER THE DRAINAGE WITH A SIDEWALK AS IS DONE IN EVERY OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH APART FROM NIGERIA??

HAS THE GOVERNOR EVER SEEN AN OPEN GUTTER IN ALL HIS TRAVELS ABROAD?

SO WHY IS HE BUILDING SUCH BACKWARD GARBAGE IN NIGERIA?

Valiantvaliant: the former.

My fellow belewite. I hail!
