The challenge of cleaning up Lagos of today is humongous and can overwhelm and even humble the best waste management administor.

The biggest problem of Lagos state is the unprecedented influx of homeless people into the state ...especially people that come into the state on heavy-duty trucks and trailers.

Beggars and destitutes all over the state....these people have converted road median and pedestrian sidewalks as their toilets .

See Ijora Olopa under bridge that had semblance of decency some years back...one cannot even pass along the road these days without covering his or her nose because of the heavy stench of urine there.

And I'll conclusively prove who you're...

Police got upto 15% .....unbelievable

Why is Alex Otti inviting BAT to commission projects....Whatever happened to Obingo, i hope it is not what I'm thinking

Ehennnn

Let me not say what i want to say..... Seun's bots are stalking me on a steady..

But how come everywhere outside the stadium is in near complete darkness.

I saw the aerial night view picture of the Galatasaray stadium.during their league title wining match against Kayserispor last weekend and i was in awe....don't think I've seen a stadium and its surrounding look so beautiful

The model sample number is too small to draw that conclusion or comparism besides there is a dearth of experienced health professionals with the prerequisite facilities in the country at the moment to see the programme through on a state wide scale.

Very uninspiring team....the day i watched them against Morocco that was when i knew we have no team.

Wahala

All the referees that officiated their games are trialists...culled from people from that side.

Ok oo...but wetin the lions do them abi the beasts follow for the conflict ni...

As usual the devil is to blame.

Even sharia that was adopted as state religion can not save the state from bandits onslaught.

And here we are complaining of low personnel enrollment into the military.

All cultists should be forcefully enlisted in the Nigerian army... let them gaan carry arm in front of terrorists and bandits.

Very useless things hisses!

Guys gather here let us compare this 15years student with the ones that play football in Africa and South America.....size wise

Thousands of chickens euthanized in South Africa after they were left starving and eating each other

Animal welfare officers faced the grisly task of euthanizing more than 350,000 chickens by hand after they were left starving and cannibalizing each other when a South African state-owned poultry company ran out of money to feed them, officials said Tuesday.

The National Council of Societies for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, or NSPCA, said it wasn't able to say for certain how many other chickens had already died by the time its officers reached several neglected poultry farming sites because of the “mass cannibalism” that took place among the birds.


The NSPCA managed to save more than 500,000 chickens, it said.

“It was a harrowing scene,” the NSPCA said in a statement. “Skeletal chickens huddled together, chickens eating one another, feeding lines stripped bare.”

The chickens were owned by Daybreak Foods, a major poultry supplier owned by South Africa's state asset management company Public Investment Corp.

NSPCA officers were first alerted to a crisis at one farm on April 30. The organization uncovered at least five other farms in northern South Africa with multiple sites on each farm where birds had been left to starve, it said.

Daybreak Foods was denied permission to take the birds to a slaughterhouse because they were too small.

There was no immediate response to an email message seeking comment from Daybreak Foods late Tuesday.

Company spokesperson Nokwazi Ngcongo told the Daily Maverick news outlet that the birds went unfed for a period of time due to financial challenges affecting feed delivery. She said efforts had been made to limit animal suffering as much as possible.

Nazareth Appalsamy, the manager of the NSPCA's farm animal protection unit, told The Associated Press that the mass culling began last Wednesday and was only completed on Monday. Around 75 animal protection officers were tasked with euthanizing the chickens that weren't able to recover one by one, Appalsamy said.

"Culling took a real toll on the staff, being exposed to such extreme measures," he said.

The NSPCA said the chickens hadn't been fed for more than a week and pledged to file a court case against Daybreak Foods under animal protection laws for abandoning its responsibilities.

The South African government said it is in talks with Daybreak Foods leadership over its financial troubles.

Ok

My honest take on this issue is that Wike should recluse himself from PDP activities for the time being since he has committed him to the 2nd term ambition of Tinubu.

Properly rebuilding PDP can only start after BAT reelected.

The entitlement mentality of some Nigerians is sickening.....people will take loan fully aware of the conditions and still come on social media to cry wolf.

God forbid badt thing.

These are the people that destroyed this country...Fred Ajudua is amongst the founding fathers of Yahoo in Nigeria.

Donald trump in the beat.

I thought LG council get their pay direct from cbn

The statement there reads 10% statutory allocation, that is different from Federation account allocation.

Smartcitizen:
You want to bend the constitution because you want to achieve your aim?

Tomorrow another person will bend and achieve his own aim.

Years later I will also bend it to achieve my own aim,

And after all these bendings, Nigeria will achieve it's potential and become a great nation like America?

It's just a matter of time, we will all see that there will be nothing like progress in this country with this useless mindset of the leaders and their supporters.


👎👎👎

Thesame you that will readily heap the blame on Wike for not ensuring the payment of teacher's salary in the FCT even when you clearly know that responsibility falls within the purview of the area councils ... you're here criticising Wike for bending the rule besides he is making reference to statutory allocation....what exactly do you lot want.

Can't issues be addressed without sentiments and prejudice for una the haters crew

Very uninspiring team.

What made him a big guy.....If you check properly this is one of the urchins criticising government and calling it corrupt.

I got a training opportunity with an oil and gas firm in Lagos sometime in 2019. I resigned my job in Abuja and moved to Lagos.

Our office was in Ajah. So I got a place around Lakowe. One weekend I decided to check up on my cousin staying at Alapere. I spent the weekend at her place and headed back to Ajah on Monday around 2pm.

We got to the Landmark center axis around 3pm or so.. There was a crazy gridlock on that Lekki-Epe expressway.

I sat down at the back and held on to my bag firmly. Three hours later, we didn't move 300 meters. Passengers kept dropping one after the other, I thought they had either gotten to their bus stop or maybe were hanging around for the traffic to ease.

6pm or so we were around Jakande.. I noticed an exodus of people trekking... and almost all the buses were empty, while others were looking for the easiest way to turn back.

That was when it dawned on me that all the people I saw walking by were actually passengers that alighted from buses and were trekking back home... Omoh!

I jumped down from the bus, and joined the exodus of people happily cruising their legediz Benz to their respective destinations.

I got to Ajah bridge around 9pm, crossed over and got one Orijin bitters, crossed back and located the nearest transport company.. That was GUO.. I bought a ticket for the first bus heading to Abuja the next day.

That was how I ended my training with the firm.

Lagosians are very patient and resilient people!

Lagosians patient..??..... Chairman you're Wrong there. They only endure traffic gridlock but don't confuse that for patience. On the resilient part i agree with you.

Lagosians that are like ticking time bomb....waste their time and you'll understand better.

Druss:
You trust Sandra and yet don't trust Natasha. Aren't both of their cases based on 'dem say'. All these noise is unnecessary. They should sort it out in court instead of distracting us from the mess in Nigeria.

I trust facts not the contenders....Sandra has atleast put out something to butress her points, what have we seen from Mrs Akpoti besides the media frenzy.
