PoliticsRe: Minister Forced Aviation Agency To Spend $1.6 M On Two BMW Armoured Cars(Pics) by akintun: 1:10am On Oct 16, 2013
Nigeria is finished. People defending rubbish. D woman forced NCAA to buy d vehicle. I even heard about dis authorization one month ago from a friend, and at dat point I was sure dat dis new would get to Sahara reporters. She personally requested 4 d vehicle.

D gov has a responsibility to impose heavy restriction on cigarette, in order to discourage people from smoking.

Family Guy by far, and it is not even close.
TV/MoviesRe: DStv Raises Charges Again. by akintun: 6:24pm On Oct 05, 2013
NBC should learn from d British regulators, and force DSTV to give out some premiership matches at cost price to other cable cariers.
PoliticsRe: Power Generation Was 6000MW In 1990... True?? by akintun: 11:22pm On Oct 01, 2013
Find Out!:
I've said it before that if you look at Nigeria from 1960, we have actually seen much more development and overall better standard of living under MILLITARY rule compared to civillian regimes. Practically all our major infrastructure today were built by the Millitary, the civillians came in, mismanaged (still mismanaging) the ones they met, built very few, then sold (still selling) to their cronies. thats in addition to the "everybody come and eat" we have under civillian regimes. Under the millitary, na only CinC, some MilAds & few other people dey chop money.

From the refineries, power generation, national monuments, even interstate roads, the guys from the barracks have far surpassed their civillian counterparts. While there were building, "democratic" civillians are busy passing budget after budget for maintenance, yet nothing show. Someone will now say it is the "system which cannot change overnight" that is responsible for the collapse of Nigerian Airways, Nitel, NEPA (PHCN), even National Stadium Surulere & National Arts Theatre iganmu e.t.c. as if it was not Nigerians who established these things and had them up and running for quite some time.

2015, make una wise up abeg. Nigeria doesnt deserve leaders who give excuses for their incompetence or lack of performance, leaders who even feel that our major problem is exagerrated (how the heck will he pay serious attention to it when "perception is different from reality"?!!!)
D military actually destroyed dis country. It would take years of civilian rule or a very good military rule( which I doubt) to undo wat d military left us with. Deep rooted corruption in d society, and high interest on gov borrowings are two of d things dat would take long years to solve.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal V Napoli - UCL (2 - 0) On 1st October 2013 by akintun: 2:10pm On Oct 01, 2013
Arsenal would find dis very diff. I have seen a lot of Napoli dis season, and I can confidently say dat dey are a good side. To me their main man is d left sided Italian attacker Insigne, d guy is good.
PoliticsRe: National Food Imports Dropped By $5.3b In One Year – Adesina by akintun: 10:41am On Sep 30, 2013
Official food import dropped by $5.3b in one year, while food smuggling increases by $5.3b in one year. D guys smuggling rice into d country are making big buck, and d gov and people of Benin republic are smiling and rejoicing.
FamilyRe: Wife Behaving Badly? by akintun: 1:40am On Sep 29, 2013
soul_glo: Wrong again. It does not matter whose name the house is titled under. It is marital property if it was bought while they were married. The courts will split it in half. In some cases even if it was bought before the marriage it might still end up being split in half. It's not Nigeria where a man dies and the wife lives in fear of his family coming to get their home because it was in his name. People need to educate themselves on these things. Not just women. Men too.
I was not referring to divorce. I was referring to been thrown out or locked out of d house. D OP was saying dat d police would tell d man to find somewhere to sleep, but d truth is dat d police cannot tell a man dat fully owns his house to find somewhere else to sleep.
FamilyRe: Wife Behaving Badly? by akintun: 11:39pm On Sep 28, 2013
Naija men are learners. If a man in d western world wants to acquire a property 4 accommodation , he should do it in his own name. He should ignore d lower interest he would be given if he acquires d property in both his and his wife name. No police would tell a man who acquired a property singlehandely, to sleep outside.
PoliticsRe: Why Do We Have So Many Bad Roads In Lagos? by akintun: 8:37pm On Sep 27, 2013
D problem is d way d country is structured. I doubt if d state LG have enough money to build and maintain good roads.
PoliticsRe: 1.8m Lagosians Travel By Water Monthly – LASWA by akintun: 8:31pm On Sep 27, 2013
desgiezd: The waterways are a way of getting to one's destination faster but the charges by the boat operators are too exploitative. The government needs to speedily complete its ferries and put them to use quickly so that more people will travel across the waterways at more affordable rates.

Paying N600.00 from Ikorodu to V/I is on the high side and a lot of people desirous of avoiding the terrible traffic on our roads find such water fares unaffordable.
600 naira from Ikorodu to VI is very affordable. Infact it is at par with d road transport.
SportsRe: Enyimba Awarded 3 Points Against Kano Pillars by akintun: 8:22pm On Sep 27, 2013
I don't understand how dey decided two similar events differently, d worst thing is dat a further 3 point was deducted from 3sc . Six points deducted 4 one incident.
PoliticsRe: Lagosians Spend N36bn On Owambe Annually - Fashola by akintun: 11:00am On Sep 23, 2013
D 36b is only 4 few LG, dat means spending 4 owambe in all LG might be up to 200b. Consumer spending is actually good 4 d economy, but we need d figures 4 over a period of time.

PoliticsRe: Is NAFDAC Still Active? by akintun: 6:59am On Sep 16, 2013
Nafdac is now less corrupt. Akunyili was d master of bribery. She introduced d brown envelop culture to Nafdac, and bribed d media heavily. Under Akunyili, Nafdac did not secure one conviction 4 fake drugs, but under d current leadership, there has been 3 convictions so far.

PoliticsRe: FG Order For 53 Gold Iphones To Celebrate Independence by akintun: 12:00pm On Sep 11, 2013
Billyonaire: IF you think GEJ ordered the phone, you are f000lish

If you think GEJ must sign for every purchase made by all Ministries, you are f000lish.

If you blame GEJ for every ministries' action, you are f000lish.

If you think GEJ knows every arrangement made for 53rd anniversary celebration, you are f000lish.

If you dare respond to this post with insults, you have proven to be f000lish.
There is something called responsibility. I'm sure dat he has no idea of d purchase, but as d head, he has to be responsible 4 d actions of his subordinates. He should sack d person dat made and approved d order.

D question should be directed to d female doctors, but I know quite a lot of MD, and they are not married to fellow doctors.
SportsRe: Nigeria 2013 Afro-Basketball Championship Fans Thread by akintun: 10:48pm On Aug 28, 2013
Very poor. Their best players got injured, and got fouled out, and we still could not win. 25secs, and we still could not get a basket.
SportsRe: Nigeria 2013 Afro-Basketball Championship Fans Thread by akintun: 10:15pm On Aug 28, 2013
Dis is now looking very bad 4 naija
SportsRe: Nigeria 2013 Afro-Basketball Championship Fans Thread by akintun: 9:43pm On Aug 28, 2013
Poor second qter from Nig. Dey threw away a 10 point lead, and dey just have to improve on three pointers. D third worst three points score is very poor 4 one of Africa top teams.
SportsRe: Nigeria 2013 Afro-Basketball Championship Fans Thread by akintun: 9:18pm On Aug 28, 2013
Good game so far from naija, nothing fanciful , but good on d defense . D good thing is dat Aminu is currently playing well. Diogu would certainly step up later. More three points needed.

U should use ur brain. If u did ur youth service in some Northern states, u would understand wat I was posting about. There are areas in present Nigeria where people are still virtually naked.

Angola actually played in d same Olympic qualifiers as Nigeria, and we qualified ahead of them, we even won d European giant Greece .

Our forefathers were virtually naked, so I wonder whose culture is indecent dressing prominent. Africa culture allows indecent dressing .

We need to defeat Senegal because we have also suffered from their defeat. I can still remember hw dey defeated us wen dey hosted d competition . D'tigers are not playing well. D game was close untill d end of d second quater. I dey fear 4 dem no be small.
