I know someone like you will come here and tell me it's a federal road. The most deplorable section of the roads happens to be in ibadan. And let's agree it's even a federal road,who is closer to federal government between him and we the common man?

Well, it would have been better to use a road under his care. Blaming Ramsdale for an own goal by Maguire, reeks of hidden agenda.

[quote author=donjazzet post=125757140]The entire bishops of the Catholic church in Nigeria come out against the courts judgement on the election. Calls it a grave travesty of justice and the erosion of trust in the judiciary.

The Catholic Bishop today released a press statement today on the shambolic Judgement given by the Judges at Court of Appeal - The judges have kept Nigeria in a sorry state with their judgement pic.twitter.com/0xPGzGxml8

religious leaders should stop this show of shame abeg. I doubt if they really got briefed by their lawyers on the judgement, before this dance of macabre.

popizaino:
Alex Otti in less than 3months achieved this. Remind me how many years Okezie spent as Governor @Griffon ?

Seyi Makinde is either in the USA or UK gallivanting from one sport stadium to another while he left us to be plying Iwo to ibadan in hours,something we should be doing in less than 30mins,yet some of you asking me not to pray for military intervention that will take away power from this useless god-forsaken civilians governments. Dey play.

Is Iwo - Ibadan expressway, under the care of the state government?

pandax:
The OP you responded to must be a staff of the Ministry of Works who thinks that UMAHI is taking food off their mouths by this low level od supervision

Hmnnnn.

Reference:
I can see a lot of folks praising the Man and his choice as Minister. Good. But this should be short lived. We must also face the reality that this is the exact reason why nothing really works, or works in the kind of sustainable manner to build what is called an institution, a culture.

It is just reprehensible that a Ministry with thousands of staff have to depend on the Minister to call to order a Contractor handling a far flung project. It shows the lack of ethics and proper corporate governance.

Something is broken in that Ministry that is much more important than the project in question and could be far reaching round other parts of the country.

I know that not only does the Ministry of Works have Supervising agents in its employment but it also engages Consultants and high cost. Enough layers of protection to ensure quality is delivered at this time of great infrastructural deficit and economic pressure.

We must insist that Works department as an institution is reformed and an end put to the laxity and wanton corruption that has bedeviled it for a generation.

That is the responsibility of the Minister and the biggest legacy he will leave. Much more important than his presence on every construction site.

Let him be on every construction site for now, if it guarantees good jobs by the contractors. He will fight corruption in the ministry later. Nigerians need result right now.

Reference:
But why does it take A MINISTER to see shoddy jobs. What is happening in that parastatal full of people on the taxpayers tab that should be supervising these jobs. Compromise everywhere.

Heads must roll or this will never end. The Minister in truth has no business addressing the Contractor. It is demeaning. It is not his job. His FIRST line of success will be to get his Ministry working. Get his staff to do their bloody jobs or show them the way out.

In one single post, you gave a valid reason for his action and later rubbished it.

All those people doing oversight and monitoring are the people enabling contractors to do shoddy jobs while the people suffer. He needed to do this so as to send signals to all contractors that a new sheriff is in town and it is better as it will ensure proper jobs by contractors henceforth.

BlueRayDick:


Even that will not save him. Winning elections in off season is the forte of politicians and not TeD Talkers/Motivational speakers supported by Social Media users. Only few people will go out to vote and those people will be mobilized by local politicians whom I doubt Banky has in his pockets

Since they are not in his pockets, maybe with fat pockets they may enter. 😄

raumdeuter:
I didn't hear of that though



Banky might actually finish 2nd. I really wish it was Banky in APC sha.I like him personally but I didn't know of this his wife reported antics.

She was strangely supporting GRV, even when Banky was with PDP.

If Attah is allowed to contest, Banky will need funds from Wizkid and Burna to beat him to 2nd.

BlueRayDick:
Moor’s son will most likely win. He has the double advantage of being on APC ballot and also the advantage of Banky W going totally silent almost immediately he lost the election.

Banky doesn’t have the resources to deploy and win a rerun in 90 days , neither does the PDP stand a strong chance in any election in Lagos state .

If Banky should win, then truly miracle still happens .

Banky will finish a distant 3rd, unless miracle happens like you opined.

raumdeuter:
All anti-APC votes will be split into 2. between BankyW and LP. Also off cycle elections favor those who are really voters not those emergency voters who only come out for presidential

How APC voters gawked themselves in Lagos for Presidency will not be repeated again and I expect a SanwoOlu / Tokunbo Abiru victory

Plus Banky's wife was said to be anti-Sanwo during the last election. Payback's time.

Also, not sure LP's voters would turn up like they did last time to vote. Attah will need to do aggressive campaign and lobbying.

BlueRayDick:
Yes they did .

This is an opportunity for emergency lovers of Banky W to go out and work for him instead sitting online to do armchair analysis before Koro son knack am for ground this time ( it’s obvious the LP guy will not be having the Obi’s clout behind him this time around)

Koro's son is most likely to win. They will deploy all required resources to ensure that.

Ibime:
Sampras was considered the GOAT before Federer. Sampras be like Carl Lewis GOAT level before Usain Bolt obliterated him

I remember Sampras - Agassi rivalry. I don old o.

@ theflint1, learnt a superintendent of Police was killed by cultists on Friday and #100m placed on the suspected killer by the governor.

If PH, with cultists wrecking havocs, is more peaceful than Lagos as some people claimed here, then peace has a different definition.

Havertz29s:
If boateng will be featuring tomorrow, then brace yourself gents for a show-off between egbon airmark and egbon dayo

Bayern no even see Boathand as legend. Raumdeuter in the mud. 😄

popizaino:
Chelsea na club abeg. Look at our ex-players still looking fits and all that. If na some other clubs legends, they would be looking like amoeba going for bold and beautiful competitions.

I expect Raumdeuter's Boathand to play well against these retired legs today. Maybe one Omani club will buy him in January after this match.

#alleyesonBoathand. 😄

raumdeuter:
Like this?

We don't do friendly matches here.

BlueRayDick:
At this point, Na MENT

I am scared.

DeadPresidents:
Me sef I’m wondering oo

People chanced with more oil than they know what to do with are spending money baba dey talk about ancestors.

Abi Yemen and Libya forget them own ancestors ni?

Only wealthy ancestors can afford the device in heaven or wherever they are, to do video call with their people on earth. Orisirisi. 😄

A001:
I already addressed this question before. I don't have the luxury of time to rehash the explanation now in a lengthy post.

I explained it when I talked about the issue of transfer of knowledge in a race or people across generations. I'd give a brief explanation:

When an intelligent person researches his history and learns about his culture and traditions, he can stumble upon some of the great works developed by his ancestors or forebears of the past eras and build on their works.

Some Africans luckily see some unknown gadgets and technologies in their dreams. That's their ancestors sending a message to them.

If such an African that got such a message act on it, he can become our own Thomas Edison on Africa or influence other Africans to achieve such status.

Some of technologies you see around today were messages some past people sent to modern humans and inspired them to build the technologies.

Mazda is a good example. Ahura Mazda is a past human that lived in places around the Asian continent.

Or you think the name, Mazda, you see all around is a coincidence?

A Yoruba person can learn about Ifa, one of his ancestors, and if he/she's into science and technology, Ifa, a past scientist and programmer, can inspire him/her to build a gadget that he/she will name after Ifa.

Then, when such a gadget is exported to other places, people around will start seeing Ifa, Ifa all around but won't know that Ifa was a man.

Many technologies you see all around are actually inspiration from past humans, which religious people worship as God ignorantly.

That's one key reason a typical Arab doesn't joke with his ancestor, Allah, and forefathers, unlike most Africans.

If an African luckily dreams about a popular technology of the past human eras (a revelation from their ancestor) and they're lucky to find the philosophy and science (developed by that ancestor while on Earth) underlying that technology, that person is on the path of greatness.

When there are many of such cases in a country or continent, that's one of the key ways through which societies develop and advance: The advantage of transfer of knowledge for a people across generations.

But if he's one of the mumu people that demonize their ancestors and forebears, he can't have such an opportunity. There are tons of benefits of promoting your culture and traditions.

Who saw Ronaldo, Neymar, Brozovic, Mendy in his dream among the Saudi Arabians or who among their sheikhs was told by his ancestor in his dream, to bring all those stars from Europe?

akwesenana:
Well, it's an ancestors league.

Saudi Arabian Ancestors League. 😄

A001:
Lols, all these funny questions sha. You think the Arabs just promote their ancestor, Allah, for nothing?

Highly intelligent people know if, as a people, you don't have the backing and support of your ancestor and forebears, such people won't develop. They'll be the slaves of this world.

How did they make their ancestors support the transfers of Ronaldo, Neymar, Ighalo and others to their country?

OasisX:


.....what Muslims in Africa gets to do with influx of players to Saudi?

You guys should check on TJay o. 😄

A001:
This is why the Arab people and other highly intelligent peoples around the world don't joke with their ancestors, forefathers, and cultures, unlike a majority of Africans.

As a human and African, the benefits of promoting good aspects of your native culture and traditions, while condemning the bad aspects, are enormous.

Ki lo tun kan ancestors bayi? (What brought ancestors into this?).😄

raumdeuter:
Manolas, St Maximin, Scamacca walahi airmark don master this jinx business

Add Kante, VVD, Haaland and Declan Rice.

raumdeuter:
Na Atiku this thing go pain pass, this was this smoothest path to presidency until Obi happened to him

No one will convince Atiku that Tinubu or APC didnt pay and plant Obi to scatter his destiny. Obi his Vice 4yrs ago suddenly turned against him when they had the easiest pathway to win. It must be jazz

What is jazz?

Ibime, nihilistjr, segedinho.

Nostradamus1:
Obi' lawyer didn't protest it

The biggest culprit here is the lawyers. They should be beaten blue and black. The case was bad enough but also badly prepared.

They needed to convince the judges that there was suppression. They failed to provide an independent expert instead producing a report. The judges rightfully had to ask if a book can be cross examined.

They failed to bring party agents who were beaten and disenfranchised in Rivers to testify along with police /hospital report (I recall seeing injuries). They failed to produce evidence of suppression and rigging that is enough just to get a dissenting judge.


They literally did nothing and the more I look at it, it seems they sabotaged OBi or Labor party has been settled by Tinubu

I remember educating that mumu spy360 that Obi lawyers were stupid for bringing a labour party member/candidate as an expert witness. That alone showed those lawyers deserve to be taken to Ogbete market and flogged mercilessly, by all the masquerades in Enugu.

Theflint1:
Lol, e go soon decamp.

Donjazet, see why you lost, "Obi no dey give shishi". Man knew he would lose, so he guarded his purse.

You can't pay for ponmo, and be expecting to eat turkey.

Amigoss:
Never followed presidential tribunals before but is this how their Judges normally dish out judgement,like the defendants and ruling parties counsel....They couldn't even hide their personal bias against Obidients...

Yes, they needed to bark at the Obidients, so as to serve as deterrent to other people that may want to go the way of the headless mob to bully the judiciary.

Next time, once you have a case in court you will caution your disrespectful followers to keep their gutter mouth shut and filthy hands hidden.

Shaytun:
Lol, Maybe you need to read the court judgement of how Natasha akpoti of Kogi state reclaim her mandate yesterday.

She tendered hard copy result from her Polling unit agent to show that the one declared by INEC is wrong and she was the winner of the election.

The results were recalculated and she was declared winner.

Instead of blaming their party and Obi for not having agents in all polling units, to tender hard copy results, they were busy bullying and cancelling people on social media.

donjazzet:
Fvcking whatever! However it went, peaceful, violent. So far as this wicked people knew that it was human beings they were dealing with not robots.

We all knew the nigerian judiciary was useless. We all knew nothing good will come out of it, my anger still remains with Obi who called for calm. He's the reason I don't even post anything political here again. He sold us out.

The public should have gone out and protested this robbery while it was hot.

We told you, Obi is a scam.

Nostradamus1:
How did Obi know that he won?
What were his total number of votes?


If you provide this info, it will go along way in helping Ikpeazu

He asked madmen.

Shaytun:
PEPT has awarded cost for filing frivolous election suit:

APM: N 13, 675, 890. 00

LP: N 47, 910, 431. 87

PDP: N 23, 391,001. 45

Ordered to be paid within 48 hours after the judgement into the consolidated account of the Court of Appeal lodged at the CBN.

Good.

How I wish the lawyers are also fined separately. Disgusting.
