NgeneUkwenu: FG Should Provide Adequate Security For The Officers And Their Offices...I Don't Trust That Murderer Called Nyesom Wike
We know the works of your propaganda hands since the successful convention. The same way that you and your All Poverty Congress, APC failed with Modu Sheriff, you will also fail in this your new diversionary project. Democracy with a vibrant alternative party must flourish in our country, whether barawo bubu and your Asiwaju Asiwere national leader like it or not.
Ovamboland: You appear slimy and slippery, how convenient to avoid Azura power plant own website where the 2016 date of construction negates your lies and start yapping about another partisan site.
Posting pictures can never make falsehood become truth
I don't like arguing back & forth needlessly. Let me simply point out to you that construction starting in January 2016 indicates plenty of paper work and authorisations plus finance were secured much earlier. Engineering projects nor be like to go market buy I-better-pass-my-neighbour. Cheers.
adedehinbo: if this is what u bring out to justify Yoruba's as fraudsters I think I will also bring out links numbering in thousands of Igbo's being detained, executed for drug,fraudulent related issues,wherever u see an Igbo man its either he is planning to commit a crime or he just finished commiting a crime,spits on u
Alagba, you don't need to spit on me or anyone. Simply look in the mirror and see that you are no different from the objects of your tribal hatred. Individuals in each tribe commit crimes, so.... Cheers.
Sanchez01: Quit the whining, please. Sadly, you sounded as these guys who claim they own 85% of Lagos. There is no tribal hatred or jealousy as you claimed. I'm really trying to figure out those parts. Why would anyone be jealous of Innoson's achievement/dilemma? You wonder why a 1.5 litre engine vehicle supposedly 'manufactured' by Innoson cost about 4 million Naira and you'd hear stories such as 'the vehicle parts are imported into the country and he must make his own profit as well.' I have no issue with the narrative above but the fact remains what it is. That I am stunned is greatly exaggerated because we all know you have long been restricted to tribalistic and anti-APC banters, even when it's needless.
Thanks for acknowledging that sometimes, perhaps many times, it is needed. I will take that and leave the rest. Am I allowed to do that Cheers.
texazzpete: Please change this title to "how pastors manage Church compounds and infrastructure..."
Because the CHURCH is much more than buildings and farms. It's also about the people in it...and many of them continue to wallow in penury while their Pastors grow fat on offerings and 'seeds'.
SalamRushdie: It has never been this bad in Nigeria, divisions , insecurity, injustice , extraa judiciial killings , nepotism , poverty, zero electricity , zero fuel supply and heightened uncertainty ...God will punish any Nigerian that tries to convince another Nigerian to vote Buhari again .
Thanks to the Recessionist and Divisionist barawo bubu.
greatiyk4u: Lols.....wailers give credit to past works of GEJ but frown at blames on his past mistakes Buhari is a gift to Nigeria,
A man confessed with his own mouth that he is a curse to our country and you are saying that he is a gift? Are you okay? Are you alright? Do you need to see a doctor at Yaba left
Ovamboland: The development/design started 6 years ago and it is privately funded, however the current government provided a better enabling environment by clearing hurdles the last government was foot dragging on
adedehinbo: u can only stop banking with gtb, it won't run them down,apart from Igbo's whose fraud is their DNA, everyone else s banks with them,Gtb still remains the best bank
Are the ones below also from the SE? Cure yourself of tribal hatred before it destroys you.
Two Nigerian-Canadians Arrested In Toronto For Fraud, Theft . . . The evidence was discovered on April 24 during a raid of a condominium owned by Adekunle Johnson Omitiran, 37.
Mr. Omitiran turned himself in on April 27 and will face charges of fraud, identity theft, trafficking identity information, possession of credit cards obtained by crime, possession of proceeds of crime, and failure to comply with probation at court on May 19, according to The Star.
Another Nigerian-Canadian, Adedayo Ogundana, 45, was arrested in December 2016 in connection with the same Toronto crime syndicate. He was charged with 12 counts of fraud, identity theft, possession of stolen credit cards, and possession of the proceeds of crime.
The Toronto Sun reports that police have issued an arrest warrant for Duro Akintola, 44, a Toronto local. Emmanuel Salako, 47, is wanted by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service in Chicago for his involvement in the fraud ring.
Sanchez01: We need not attach every single mishap to politics and ethnicity. Though that part of the piece seems harsh but then again, it is just the truth. Innoson does not manufacture vehicles, he assembles them and brands them.
You see why you are displaying tribal hatred and jealousy needlessly? Which car manufacturer is not an assembler? That issue has been debated and rested on nairaland several times.
Assembly line
An assembly line is a manufacturing process (most of the time called a progressive assembly) in which parts (usually interchangeable parts) are added as the semi-finished assembly moves from workstation to workstation where the parts are added in sequence until the final assembly is produced. By mechanically moving the parts to the assembly work and moving the semi-finished assembly from work station to work station, a finished product can be assembled faster and with less labor than by having workers carry parts to a stationary piece for assembly.
Assembly lines are common methods of assembling complex items such as automobiles and other transportation equipment, household appliances and electronic goods.
Badgers14: Why won't he reject the offer to coach the Falcons?? When NFF always owe coaches salary but money keep missing from their office
All our leaders looters are the same. Whether na Wike oh, Ajimobi oh, Okoroawusa oh, Aregberascal oh, Fayose oh etc. They are all onigbeses despite Paris club refunds, multiple bailouts, increased IGR and federal allocation plus loans.
PrettyCrystal: Players of Rivers United FC this morning stormed the Rivers State Government House to press home demands for the payment of sign on fees for the 2014/15 football season. It was gathered that these monies were owed by the previous administration, before the merger, and during the days of Sharks and Dolphins FC.
Governor Nyesom Wike addressed the players personally and promised to look into their demands.
The players thanked the Governor and apologized seriously for their actions of this morning..
bigerboy200: Who in his or her right senses will chose to work in Nigeria over working in the United States...Good for him..at least he won't battle malaria, bad roads, poor power supply, late or no salary payment, fuel scarcity, kidnappers and armed robbers...
Bros, where have you been since May 2015? All these things have CHAIN-ged oh.
robosky02: Randy Waldrum rejects Super Falcons job
the recently appointed Super Falcons coach has rejected the Nigeria Football Federation offer for University of Pittsburgh coaching post
American coach Randy Waldrum has turned down to offer to coach the country's senior women's national team from the Nigeria Football Federation.
Understandable. Who wants to work under Dalung who will properly spended the money meant to pay his salary but won't be fired by barawo bubu who is also a thief and rogue, pretending to be a saint
Rad1cal: The Minister of Youths and Sports, Mr. Solomon Dalung, on Thursday said the Federal Government did not expect the Super Falcons to win the just-concluded CAF African Women Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
He said that was why the government was currently facing difficulties in paying the players’ entitlements.
Dalung spoke with State House correspondents at the Presidential Villa, Abuja amidst continued protests by members of the victorious Falcons over their unpaid allowances.
The players had seized the trophy they won at the competition and said they would hold on to the trophy until the authorities concerned offset the N238.05m accumulated bonuses which they are being owed.
They had threatened that if President Muhammadu Buhari refused to address their grievances at the Federal Executive Council’s meeting on Wednesday, they would embark on protest on the streets of Abuja.
But the minister said the situation could have been avoided if the Nigerian Football Federation had envisaged that the team would win and put in place the process of paying their entitlements.
He said, “Don’t forget that nobody even knew the team will emerge victorious.
“If we were confident they will emerge victorious, all the federation would have done is to plan for process of participation and entitlement.
“It is already established in sports tradition, when you win this is what you are entitled to.
“The situation is highly unfortunate and I don’t like it. These girls have given confidence to women who want to embrace sports, so this will go a long way in killing this laudable achievement. It is unfortunate but we will make sure the right thing is done.”
The minister said his position had always remained that the process of request for funds for sporting projects must come earlier to meet the objectives.
He said if the federation had requested for funds on time, the process of settling the players would have been easier.
The minister admitted that the matter was not handled properly, regretting that there are also issues of outstanding payment of coaches.
dondo83: Position yourself well... rather than wailing tap into the boom that will occur in 2018... by December 2018 a lot of people will be speechless with the achievements of the present administration
Lame attempt at being funny All the projects that barawo bubu has been TRYING to complete since May 2015 were started by the previous administration. Check. He has been busy round tripping forex, enjoying medical tourism in London of the other room and stealing NNPC $26 billion to start any project of his own. Shameless dullardhino.
nawtyme: Previous Govts Initiated ‘Most Of The Things This Administration Is Doing’ – Adesina
A majority of the projects the Muhammadu Buhari administration is working on was inherited from previous administrations, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity has said.
Mr Femi Adesina said this when he appeared on Channels Television’s special Independence anniversary programme on Sunday.
“Most of the things this administration is doing – 60 to 70 percent of them – were initiated by previous governments,” he said.
“That shows you that in the past a government will come and say ‘this is not our project’ And it will discard what was being done and start fresh ones.”
As a result, Mr Adesina said there are many half and quarter-completed abandoned projects. But rather than abandon the project, he explained that the current administration will complete it.
An example is the Abuja-Kaduna rail project which the Presidential aide said was up to maybe 60 to 70 percent complete when the last administration left.
“This administration came, completed it and inaugurated it. Then you will still find some people shouting, ‘they are claiming credit for what the past administration started,” he said.
“It shows there is a mentality in Nigeria that makes governments not want to complete what previous governments have started. But this administration is not going that way at all, it is just doing what needs to be done for the good of the country.”
Diiet: This saga is just a big lesson to other banks to be verry verry carefull before granting loans to fraudsters parading themselves as businessmen. # No bank in this country should offer inoson loan again.
Did you say fraudster? The ONLY Nigerian brand car manufacturer is a fraudster? What manner of hatred is this? Bad belle dey kill oh. Please see a fraudster below. Cheers.
Lightening: See the scathing press release. " The business man who runs a local auto assembly plant". This statement belies the reason for the EFCC's failed attempt to humiliate Innoson. Let Buhari and his nonproductive cabal go and start their own auto assembly plant too. Sheer jealousy.
Barawo bubu has always been a jealous, incompetent fool who does not know how to manage an economy for making money hence he turned the prosperity handed over to him into recession. That was how he cancelled Lagos metro project in 1984 out of tribal hatred and jealousy. Who will save us from this wretch 2019, where art thou?
Splashme: The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.
Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.
The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.
Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”
The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.
Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.
He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”
Ovamboland: your zombie no be here o! for a project started in 2016?
All Poverty Congress, APC zombies can tell lies for Africa. Thank God for the internet.
Azura Power to build US$1b power plant in Nigeria Jun 14, 2014
Promoters of the US$1bn, 450 MW, Azura- Edo Independent Power Plants are optimistic that construction work on the plant will commence in June this year.
Joint Managing Director of Azura Power Holdings, Dr. David Ladipo, confirmed that a total of 14 banks and financial institutions from 8 countries are investing in the project.
Dr. David Ladipo said the Azura- Edo IPP is the first of a new wave of greenfield project- financed IPPs under development in Nigeria. The project comprises a 450 MW open cycle gas turbine power station, a short transmission line connecting the power plant to a local substation and a short underground gas pipeline connecting the power plant to the country’s main gas-supply. This represents the first phase of a 1, 500 MW power plant facility that is targeted to come online in 2017. Phase two will see the plant capacity reach 670MW.
The World Bank through its Country Director, Maria Francoise Nelly, has said it will provide risk guarantee to strengthen the Azura- Edo IPP and also provide liquidity in case they fail to pay.
Azura Power aims to engage in power generation projects that will add over 3,000MW of power accounting for approximately 20% of Nigeria’s project installed capacity by 2020.
SalamRushdie: That plant has been ready since Jonathan its just that it was not connected to the grid and didnt have gas suppy
Let me FACT check that with Femi Adesina

cashlurd: One of the best performing governors in Nigeria. Unlike his counterpart from the East whose area of governance is in moulding statues.....
With so much money from taxes, IGR, federal allocation and loans, why won't he be the best performing to the mumu Lagosians who fail to scrutinise him closely and hold him accountable thoroughly
Lagos Govt Sells Helicopter It Bought in 2009 To Itself in 2015.
Questions are now being asked by Nigerians as to whether or not the Lagos State government sold the two helicopters it bought in 2009 to itself and paid afresh. On December 7, 2009, the then Lagos State Governor, Mr Babatunde Fashola launched two Bell 412 EP Helicopters for security surveillance in the State. However, on November 27, 2015, the State Governor, Akinwumi Ambode commissioned three helicopters, 15 armoured personnel carriers, APCs, two gunboats, 165 vehicles and others purchased at a cost of N4.765 billion. One of the helicopters was a Bell 412 EP 5N-LAG (Manufacturers Serial Number 36495), the same as the ones commissioned by Fashola in 2009! When Fashola launched the helicopters in 2009, he did not say that it belonged to Caverton. Rather, he said Caverton would assist the government to enforce safety standards, implying that the helicopters never belonged to Caverton. A trail of documents and news articles readily available online show that this helicopter (5N-LAG) together with 5N-LSG were both procured in 2009 via deductions from the Lagos State Security Trust Fund by the Fashola’s led government. According publication by Saharareporters on November 20, 2009, revealed that the Bell 412 EP that Caverton advertised as its own was one of the two helicopters the Lagos State government purchased through the Lagos State Trust Fund to fight crime in the state. In 2007, the Lagos State Security Trust Fund was established under the Lagos State Security Trust Fund Law 2007 enacted by the state assembly. The Trust Fund was established to raise money and equipment through voluntary subscriptions and donations from all interested government agencies, private organizations and individuals. The funds were then to be invested to take care of the security challenges of the entire state. Caverton is owned by a businessman, Remi Makanjuola, who also doubled then as the chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Lagos Trust Fund. Saharareporters claimed then that in telephone calls made to a Florida–based company, Africair Inc., it discovered that the Lagos State Security Trust Fund had ordered two helicopters, which were supplied, shipped and re-assembled in Lagos. Africa rep. of Africair, Mr. Robert Prentice, in Nairobi, Kenya confirmed that his company had completed the supply of the helicopters to the Lagos State Security Trust Fund. Prodded as to why Caverton is claiming ownership of the equipment, he admitted that the state has a deal with Caverton to operate the helicopters. The inference from all these is that the Lagos State Government purchased the repainted 5N-LAG helicopter from itself or better still, Ambode repurchased the same helicopter bought by Fashola. - Hope For Nigeria.
Omooba77: LCC have placed a banner to increase toll fees at Lekki toll gate. Is it fair? Cars will now pay 200 from 120; SUV 150 to 250; bus 80 to 100. Why this sudden increase; please Ambode have pity on us!!
Private company, LCC hiking toll fees for a road concession that LASG already bought back with borrowed money. Lagosians have been scammed, big time. Barawo bubu is too busy stealing his own portion in Aso Rock with his 40 thieves cabal to bother with arresting Amb_Ole, Fash_Ole and JagaBandit.
The Lagos State Government on Wednesday disclosed that it had effectively restructured N25.3 billion credit facility, which local and international lenders granted it to buy back the Lekki Concession Company (LCC), the concessionaire of the Lekki-Epe expressway.
Also, the state government revealed that it was able to secure 21.16 percent reduction through the restructuring of the credit facility, which the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) granted it in November 2013 during the administration of former Governor Babatunde Fashola (SAN).
The state government disclosed the credit restructuring in a statement by its Commissioner for Information & Strategy, Mr. Steve Ayorinde, who noted that the State Executive Council had finally approved the deal.
Ayorinde explained that the administration of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode “has paid a total of N9.8billion in full and final settlement of LCC’s indebtedness to its international lender, which granted a 21.16 per cent reduction to the State.”
Consequently, the commissioner disclosed that a whopping sum of N3.15 billion had been saved from the restructuring of the credit facility the Fashola administration obtained about one year and six months to the end of his second term.
castrol180: I wonder why this guy will be fanning the ember of discords in the country, if he smells any foul in the matter why can't he approach the court than to be shouting in vain or is it because of Bianca that all these unnecessary rambunctious acts are coming up from him?
Valkan007: So this is what all of you are up to and you won't pay the female footballers bah?? End of the year MMM
That is to say the money was properly spended. Is Dalung still the sports minister or has he been sacked by the kwarupshion-fighting barawo bubu who is the leader LOOTER of the 40 thieves cabal presidency of the All Poverty Congress, APC
