In your dreams, have you ever considered yourself more knowledgeable than me



That is abuse of office.... Governors suggesting that holiday are supporting anarchy.
Abiola committed treason, usurping the Supreme Military Commander's powers and declaring himself President.
He had no respect for constituted authority and so; deserves no reverence.

How exactly did that military government assume power? By the popular votes of the citizens or by "usurping power"? If your answer is "usurping power", then you have no right to say Abiola committed treason and had no respect for constituted authority.

Please, just take the young man's advice, yeah? Google really helps.

This is what happens when graduates are still NANS exco members.

Or worse still "... When CULTISTS are NANS exco members"

The guy is a hungry lawyer, seeking for every little avenue to enrich himself. A typical Nigerian is hospitable, tolerant, patient and sacrificial.

This is an unbelievable comment. Wow... I can't believe someone can hold this view.

I spent about 5k o. 1k for BIS subscription and roughly 4k for all the printing, reprinting and binding.

I don't even think I collected extra money from home for project sef.

Tapout:
mine was a group work, we spent about 800 to 900k.... Each person paid 80k plus other expenses

Wait, did they tell you guys to buy land and build a house for your supervisor?

Bro all airlines in Nigeria are the same - useless!!!!!

Guy airpeace are the Masters of flight reschedule and delay. Sometime in October 2016, my 7pm flight left by 9:35pm. I got to Lagos at about 10:30pm and thank God it was Lagos, at least the streets were a little busy by that time.

Although from all indications it seems Arik are the worst. I've used them just twice with no issues. but I have heard a lot of negative comments about their services.

God help Nigeria and Nigerians

Amen o.

So people still travel with Arik? That "molue" airline

Please sir, we need you to resign now, and while writing your resignation letter, tell Kemi Adeosun and Godwin Emefiele to write theirs too.

Partnerbiz:

Guy stop spewing tosh. Lagos had only cumulative advantage nothing more.
BTW why is everything law this law that. Seems you still a sophomore cos you exude it.

Loool... No need to hate ehn..

I've given my own facts from the field I can relate with best, and I based my conclusion on these facts. I haven't seen you give any sir... So rather than insult, why not give a reasonable argument, or better still, just shut up.

Afam4eva:

You people make it seem as if Lagos was founded in 1999. Lagos has been there for decades and people starting trooping into Lagos as far back as the 50s, so don't make it seem like it's Tinubu, fashola or Ambode's magic that made people from all over the place to troop to Lagos. The federal government made it so. As much as other state governments are not trying. They did not meet the luxury that Lagos governors met. lagos was a goldmine waiting to be explored. You can't have almost 20 million inhabitants in a city with thousands to millions of business and not see a cash cow. That of what Lagos has taken advantage of.

I get your point. But my own point is, there's enough... Enough potentials in other states too, that those state governments are not taking advantage of. The potentials may vary, and Lagos may have the upper hand of its antecedents and stuff, but other states also have a lot to exploit, if there weren't such mediocres in government. I'll give an example.

About 4 years ago, I went for the law week program (a week program for lawyers) in Ibadan, and I heard the speakers (many of whom were from Lagos) speak. It got to a point that they kept saying stuff like "In Lagos, we now have this", "In Lagos, we do that"... And even the moderator or so had to comment about it. It was as if (and it was quite obvious actually) that Lagos was quite far ahead in their legal system. They could settle a case during Case Management Conference within 3 months, and not have to spend years in court... Etc. Now, did that come from population size? No. Did that come from antecedent? No. It only took a thinking leadership to exploit the smart brains in the system. Every state has those smart brains, unfortunately, not every state has the thinking leadership. So all that the other states could do was to copy the Lagos model.

With such a small land mass (compared to other states) and such large population, Lagos is able to "manage" their traffic. I put manage in quote because traffic in Lagos is still very terrible, but when you consider that Oyo state, with such a larrrge land mass, and just about 5 million people, (maaanyy of whom do not have cars) also has terrible traffic many times, then you'll commend Lagos.

I agree with you, really. "Lagos was a goldmine", but I'm saying other states are also massive goldmines. It only takes intelligent governments to dig it out. And even without talking about revenue generation issues, we can see that many other governments lack the capacity to think, such that even if they had the same antecedents, population, opportunities that Lagos had/has, they still wouldn't have been able to take advantage of it.

IdeyFindWife:


Lagos this, Lagos that!

When everybody will not think, chart a prodigous self-determination chart for the future of their state/people and actually follow up with the right policy, people and practices for that!

Which one of all our states is not endowed? Nasarrawa is sitting on a goldmine of mineral resources yet they're crawling. Benue's grasshopper-brained governor is busy buying wheelbarrows for his bastard children? What we're all doing to ourselves is more than what any Lagos is doing to anybody. The NigerDelta had their prestigious son as president, enjoyed a lot of payoffs from the Oil Companies over the decades, filled NDDC with their people on top of Amnesty Programme and juicy positioning in the NNPC yet at the end of the day, it's still blame-laying and finger-pointing, who's fooling who?

People will just fiind something to bitch about and cause trouble with, shm

Well, technically, Nasarrawa cannot do much with their mineral resources cos the Fed Govt has exclusive rights to that... But I get your point though.

I stay in Oyo State and I know how desperately 'UN-INNOVATIVE' our leaders are here. No thoughts as to how to increase IGR, apart from taxes and levies. Osun gov could not generate anything reasonable from his state and he blamed the Jonathan administration for his inability to pay his staff cos according to him, Osun got the lowest allocation. Now, his party member is president and he can't complain about that anymore, yet, he hasn't paid salaries.
When Obasanjo starved Lagos of funds then, they had to think out ways to generate money.

I am a law student. I know the landmark laws and procedures that Lagos has pioneered in Nigeria. They seem to review their laws regularly and even though there's still a lot to do, they seem to be on their toes about it. But what do you see in Oyo State, Osun state, etc? Copy copy! Busy copying from Lagos... Without thinking!!! So it's in everything, not revenue generation alone. It's in law, education, infrastructure.... Yet, our own governors, commissioners don't think here. Why wouldn't Lagos keep leading?

I agree with you bro.... It would actually be unfair to think Lagos has anything to do with the failures of other states. I wonder if the Niger Delta people actually know that their governors receive so much commission on the oil explored from their states. Cos if they do, all these wailing would stop, and they would hold their governors to account for why their states are the way they are, and they would leave Lagos out of their issues.

dingbang:
If we don't pay our taxes through these means, how will the federal government carry out projects?

I'm sorry to say this but this is a really stupid comment.

36STATES:

Two heartless fraudsters. Humility my foot.

its actually not healthy to be this bitter, ehn...

BABANGBALI:
ok help me to use it well

"Man's inhumanity to man" is used when a person does something bad, terrible, inhuman, demeaning, wicked, to another person. Like boko haram activities, like rape, robbery, those are acts of mans inhumanity to man.

Here there was an act of hospitality, kindness. There's no"Man's inhumanity to man".

Victorclean1:
Shame, hypocrisy of the highest order. God only know those that worship him in life and spirit. This where adeboye who claim to be the light of God is dinning with a demon worshiper.

Hello sir. I probably wouldn't have bothered to reply this but I chose to when I noticed you could be a christian (from your username and the tone of your comment). So let me get to the point.

I don't know how much of the bible you read, but if you study Mark 2, Jesus visited Levi (a tax collector *(like the corrupt politician, police officer etc of nowadays)*) and dined with him and in verse 15, we see that Jesus actually dined with "many tax collectors and sinners".

Does that mean Jesus was a sinner? No.
Does that mean Jesus was looking for favours from the sinners? No.
Does that mean Jesus was a hypocrite? No.

You said exactly what the Pharisees (holier than thou people) said about Jesus.

16 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw Him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, they said to His disciples, “How is it that He eats and drinks with tax collectors and sinners?” 17 When Jesus heard it, He said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

It's actually better not to condemn something when you don't really understand it sir.

OmoAregbesola:
What rubbish! This is sacrilegious, How low would dis Ooni stoop to portray himself as being humble. Ridiculing d stool of Ooni b4 a mere pretentious Yahoo boy ( God of Man). I trust Iku baba yeye d Alaafin of Oyo empire & Yoruba land, Ooni is not a person but d entire Ife kingdom & beyond. Will Queen Elizabeth ridicule herself even 4 a pope?
Oo infact I troway d respect I have 4 d king 4rm 2day.

It's understandable that you can think this way. Wisdom is too high for fools.

BABANGBALI:
That is man inhumanity to man

You heard this quote from somewhere, and ure using it wrongly!

LastMumu:
Op is right. I had a CGPA of 1.61 in school five years ago l and up till now I haven't been able to land a job. The cleaner job I was managing last year, the day my heard of my CGPA he sacked me.

Hehehehe... Go away jor.. Na lie

Just "be anxious for nothing", and know that "God has not given you the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind". Soak this in and you wouldn't have panic attacks.

unclezuma:
Recession never still end?

There was never a recession sir. All na wash

I once bought coca cola, and obviously it had been opened. Part of it had been poured out and they had topped it with water. I just noticed that it didn't make a sound when I opened it, then I noticed the ridiculous taste.

Everything is just messed up here.

The Nigeria Police has fast become a nuisance. They are even more evil now than robbers. I seriously thought one of the first things PMB would do was to address the rot in the force, but .....

Abeg, where's that guy that sang "E wa fun mi ni visa"? Coman sing it again o... I need visa to get outta here.

And yes, get dogs. Eg German shephard, rottweillers and other brutal dogs... NOT LOCAL DOGS! And feed them well. They do better jobs than vigilantes.

Write to radio stations... Fresh FM, Splash FM especially. Let the letter reflect that you guys are crying out for help. It would carry more weight if t comes from your Landlords' Association. I guess something should be done that way.

Having said that, I should tell you that the presence of the Nigeria Police in an area may likely not stop the robbers, especially if they are as notorious as you say.
A young man was once robbed in my area (Akobo too) at gun point, just less than 30 meters from a police post. He cried and shouted, the police probably even closed their door... This was around 9pm o, the night was still young.

Pray... Cos that's our only hope in this country. But ask for help through the radio too sha.

TMDavidWest:
Good English certainly does. And your topic is faulty.

Gosh! I'm glad someone else noticed... *sigh*

Does Look Or Gender HAVE Anything To Do With Success In Interview?

IamaNigerianGuy:


With all due respect, I do not see any sense in your post.
stupid bastard psychopaths in uniform brutalizing civilians and you are defending them.
so a lecturer should kneel and beg a primary six corporal or private.
Who made the rule about phone calls ? where? when?
counterinsurgency training involves beating civilians ? Nigerians especially in the south are too docile. Try to practice this kind of "counterinsurgency training" in the middle east or USA or any country with a well armed citizenry.
Personally, I feel the guy has options. He should explore them if he is truly a man.

Nigeria is a rubbish zoo country without a direction or leadership

You don't know how much I love this comment

ironheart:
Being born again is no longer between God and man but between pastor and man. Pastor should be rejoicing over a lost soul that has been found not to b making such press statement

Did you even read the post?

yhungmoney:
As a friend and course mate, I will like to clarify this because I don't want her to be remembered like this, she was found where they said she jumped from and I don't think this is what killed her. She was said to be vomiting pink foam which the medical practitioner identified as food poisoning. She wasn't under drug nor is she pregnant. But I know her death is mysterious and there is something hidden behind her death. But what I'm sure of is that it's not suicide. I will use this miss you say; immabong, I miss you, I love you but Jesus love you more. Faculty of law miss you. You're such an important jewel.

My condolences. It is well
