NPA has granted full approval for the construction of the lekki deep sea port but giving excuses why the already made ports in the East is hard to manage. Who is fooling who? How long will this dilly dally last?

handsomeyinka:

Afonjas will still come and call it fraud, while the biggest fraud is Nigeria itself

Marineghost:
Why dragging Yoruba people again
And Abia should compete with Abidjan not Ibadan not wonder abia is decaying.

selemempe:
The yorubas should listen.

Breaking out from nigeria is the only long term interest u should have. A 2023 president is good...but pls tell me wat ur 1999-2007 presidency brought for ur yoruba nation. Bragging rights?
Ok tell me wat ur 1993 stinct in aso rock brought u. Another bragging right?
Ok tell me wat ur 1976-1979 term brought u. Yet another bragging rights?

Ok compare life in ivory coast and ghana with life in yoruba land. Do u see wat a small, well managed nation can bring? Organisation, unity of purpose and less chaos.

U think nigeria is bad now? Wait till oil finishes and climate change becomes more serious. Then u will wish u will go back to wen nigeria was the way it is today.

Keep marching forward IPOB. wat u are doing may seem like drama until it stops being drama and bcom real. A journey of a thousand miles......

helinues:
Which kind advise be that.

Politics is a game , tricky more than tiki taka self.

We are enjoying it ooo..

Btw, Una no wan make Oga Seun chop money Ni?

If not that I know you lack the capacity for the challenge, I would have asked you to come in a separate thread to discuss this with verifiable facts.

Buhari: Failure To Obey Court Orders, National Embarrassment – Soyinka

Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has described President Muhammadu Buhari’s failure to obey court orders as a national embarrassment.

SPECIAL REPORT: How Buhari administration serially disobeys court orders

Reacting to his administration’s serial violation of court orders, Mr. Osinbajo told PREMIUM TIMES and other journalists at an interview that although his government recognises and respects the rule of law, it also acknowledges its (government’s) right of appeal.

“It is our duty as government to respect the orders of the court. But we also reserve the right to appeal”, he said.

However, although the federal government has appealed the judgement mandating Mr. El-Zakzaky’s release, after the deadline, no appeal has been filed against the many rulings mandating the release of Mr. Dasuki.

Also, the Nigerian government has not appealed against the ALSCON ruling and may be unable to do so as the ruling was repeatedly delivered by the apex court.

10 months after Nigerian govt’s launch of Ogoni clean-up, ‘not a drop of oil cleaned’ – Group
April 5, 2017

Ten months after the Nigerian government launched the clean-up of Ogoniland, actual work is yet to commence in the community, the Environmental Rights Action/Friends of the Earth Nigeria, ERA/FoEN, has said.

The Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, in June 2016 flagged off the oil spillage clean-up exercise amidst an elaborate ceremony in Bodo, Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State.

Godwin Ojo, Executive Director of ERA/FoEN, said almost six years after the UNEP report, “not a drop of oil” had been cleaned in Ogoniland.
“As we speak, there has been no serious effort to manage the expectations of the Ogonis. While some believe that the clean-up process is a money-making venture, others are facing difficulties to pursue the clean-up process,” Mr. Ojo said at a press conference in Lagos on Tuesday.
“Authorities responsible for the clean-up should come up publicly, provide a template for the clean-up and a step by step blueprint on how it would progress. The media is even kept in the dark, for example, no one knows the effective date of the clean-up process, and this is not good enough to manage the people’s expectations. Not everyone is being carried along at the moment.”

A United Nations Environment Programme scientific study released in 2011 exposed the large-scale, continued contamination of the water and soil in Ogoniland, and the serious threat they pose to human health.
In one case, UNEP found that a community drinking well was polluted with benzene, a cancer-causing substance, at levels 900 times above the World Health Organization guideline.

The report presented to former president, Goodluck Jonathan, on August 4, 2011, was, however, not implemented throughout the life of Mr. Jonathan’s administration.

Barely three months after he assumed office in 2015, President Muhammadu Buhari approved several actions to fast-track the long delayed implementation of the UNEP report. Some of the actions included the amendment of the official gazette establishing the Hydrocarbon Pollution Restoration Project (HYPREP) and the approval of the composition of a Board of Trustees for the HYPREP Trust Fund.
The president also approved a $10 million initial take-off grant for the implementation of the report.
In February, Mr. Osinbajo said the federal government had secured over $1 billion dollar from Shell Petroleum Development Company for the clean-up, adding that a governing council and board of trustees had been inaugurated on August 4, 2016 and January 12 this year, respectively.

“A funding of one billion dollars at 200 million dollars per annum over five years has been provided by Shell to provide drinking water, conduct health impact assessment and demonstrate remediation technologies,” Mr. Osinbajo, a professor of Law, had said.

No other president in the history of Nigeria has obeyed court orders more than Buhari.

Forget about the lies and fake news you are regularly fed with.
