I said it yesterday that I have never in my life seen Buhari give any intellectual lecture. I can't really say what he has achieved in his life as a man, has he ever created job opportunity in Nigeria through his establishments?. I only know him as a runaway student and dictector. PITY.

Your assertions here are all twisted and does not represent the truth about Lagos.

I would not claim that Lagos have the best of these infrastructures in the world, but the state is doing its best based on the resources available to it and the more than 24 million people it had to cater for.

In Lagos, civil servants and teachers are well caterd for. Graduates earn about N150,000 in the civil service and teaching.

The public schools are very good and well equipped, although they are very few compared to the population. Most Lagosians send their kids to private schools.

The public health system have since been modernized, very clean and fully staffed, though more are still required because of the growing population.

New dual carriageway roads are presently being constructed to open up Epe, Ikorodu, Ibeju-Lekki and Badagry in order to de- conjest Lagos Central .

As to whether Governor Ambode is stealing Lagos money, you have no proof. So shut your mouth, and stop spewing trash.


I don't argue with unfortunate paid assslicker.

Is either u a political agbero or u re just plainly silly to observe that lagos has gone from where fashola left it to worst state.

Well I don't blame u,u lots deserves all the unfortunates leaders that rule u pple

You have the facts online and all over Cross River State. Duke's achievements are not hidden, and that's why he was a PDP favourite to take over from OBJ until he chose Yar Adua/Jonathan.

PointB:


This has nothing to do with governance of Lagos State, let alone APC or PDP - different sides of same coin!
The fact stated is that government (successive FG) have failed to develop other parts of the country in favour of Lagos? Could be deliberate or as a result of scheming by South West politicians with naive connivance of their counterpart from other regions.

If Onitsha Seaport is functional, gazetted, and supported won't the pressure on Lagos Ports, roads and city reduce? If Enugu International Airport is given necessary support, won't that also reduce the influx of people to Lagos.

If government fail to make this happen, how can they reduce the pressure on Lagos? At this rate how won't Lagos continue to grow, and eventually by the seams like a supernova?

Yorubas should support and actively encourage the citing of economic resources and hubs in other cities (especially SE), that's the only to enjoy your Lagos. Until that is done, the scramble for Lagos will continue to it's detriment. It's a no-brainer.
I quite understand your point but my opinion is that the development of other states in the entire federation depends on the government of the individual states.

You sound like one of them.
If they are not fools, why are they not playing politics to return south east and south south regions's seaports instead of licking Buhari's corrupt government officials pricks and pu*****y

South east and south south governors and politicians conniving with northern corrupt politicians in stealing taxpayers money and killing unarmed protesters and trying to silencing agitatons.

Let them south east and south south governors and politicians bring back the regions's seaports if they are not fools and corrupt.


Now if you know that you don't have personality disorders rather, tell me the update of south east and south south regions's seaports.

Tell the fg to put an international airport and seaport in the east and ss and the population of Lagos will reduce. Many people trooping to Lagos to do their business was because of lack of federal present in their region.

There's an international airport in Enugu. Every South Eastern state has domestic airports. What else do you want? A sea port? There's no sea in landlock south east, what miracle do you want to do to bring a seaport where there's no sea? The igbo mentality sickens me. Are you all dumb?

When he said that he will make Nigeria ungovernable, I thought that he was joking not knowing that he's a prophet of his own doom.
for the umpteenth time. sani kaita of pdp said Nigeria will be ungovernable if GEJ is elected. stop spreading falsehood blindly. BTW your hero Jonathan with his PhD a 110 dollars per barrel crude oil price couldn't take the pressure of Lagos in 6yrs and better the economy. instead he depleted of foreign reserves amidst high oil price and told us to brace up for hardship when oil was selling for $75 per barrel. now oil is $55 and you are calling the man who met an empty treasury a failure. you defended the bigger incompetent mor0n and even wanted us to vote him 2015. you PDP apologist should be ashamed of yourselves.

if the mor0nic PhD holder did the right thing then Nigerians wouldn't have had to vote for a dinosaur who is not even aware of what is happening in his own government. stop painting Jonathan white. your PhD holder landed us in this mess. buhari's only failure is making bogus promises

Oga, the last time I checked south south is different from south east. Onne happens to be in south south region. Are you now convinced that the landlocked south east must depend on other regions for seaport? Again, you can't expect federal government to build a seaport for you in a place where there are no seas.

My point is, the ONNE port serves the importers from the SE,however, there are talks for the Onitsha port to increase capacity,this was how we got the PH port going and teh PH Airport going.Im very sure you never knew teh PH port was functioning.if you dont know the nity grity do not conclude.FYI Onitsha port is recieving container ships,this is fact,Im trying to dig out the details online but cant seem to find any,Cargos from china do go there.Im doing a container to Onitsha port as I got 1x FCL and 1xLCL, so the LCL is shared with a container destined for Onitsha.
