LouisVanGaal:
I know that I would find you here, and as usual..you didn't disappoint with your hateful and inane rants..

Don't you think you will show you are a reasonable person by disputing with facts all the points I raised instead of simply saying they are "hateful and inane rants"?
Are you and Fash'OLE not the hateful ones here seeing as he STOLE our money under the guise of buying scrap metal Toronto trains which you support despite such THEFT leading to serious DEPRIVATION of basic amenities for our people?
Amenities such as:

- education for ALL children.
- tap water
- health clinics and general hospitals
- good roads

that can generate EMPLOYMENT for our youths instead of running away to be voluntary SLAVES in the US, UK, Canada, South Africa etc!

As for your rope image, since you know how to use, you can try it first then when I have seen how it works on you I can think of making the same effort

money121:

The state of the major road that led to my community continue to make me feel bad. The Old Obadore Road remain bad as it as for the past few years and it seems like the government have neglected it and show no concern. This is a community in Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos State and Igando/Ikotun LCDA. It is a place where commercial and industrial activities take place. The residents of this community has been in hell for the past few years suffering bad road despite sharing boundary with Ogun State and serving as short cut to other communities in lagos, like Abaranje and Okerube.

The community is also confronted with some

infrastructuralchallenges as the government seems to have neglected Akesan, there is problem of erosion which is caused by the absence of drainage system in the community.

Also, erosion and flooding which we experience year after year in the community are threat to our existence as a community, many families are yet to get over the damages it left behind.

During the period also, cars and other road users are prevented from using the road by erosion and flood. We are appealing to the government, our elected and appointed representativesto carry the community along in the developmental journey of the state. we therefore, appeal to the leadership of the local and state government to proffer lasting solution to alleviate the suffering, many of the affected are traders and residents that are regular tax payers.

LONG LIVE AKESAN!

LONG LIVE IGANDO/IKOTUN LCDA!

LONG LIVE ALIMOSHO LGA!

LONG LIVE LAGOS STATE!

LONG LIVE NIGERIA!

I hope now you understand my comments on this thread, which was set up for MISPLACED priority of empty chest-beating

9jacrip:
I'm with you on this post despite the many shots thrown your way.

I've come to understand, no matter how bad or good a person's reputation might be, it is important to keep an eye or ear out for cogent points in their utterances.

Osun, despite having a number of tertiary institutions, has poor rate of educated residents. I'm from there, so I know.

As a result, bringing investors will mean creating employment for Osun/Yoruba expats to come back to seize or non-Yoruba while the residents do not get employed.

Thanks for your understanding.

There is a reason why Dangote's many companies are NOT filled with Kano state/fulani-hausa workers, not so

They award to CORRUPT people


* Four years ago, with plenty fanfare, our former gomina (governor) waka go Toronto for inspect and buy aloku scrap metal trains =>

AUGUST 10, 2011

The Lagos deal would be the first of its kind for the TTC. Decommissioned cars are usually sold for scrap metal and can fetch up to $1,500 dollar each. While Ross declined to discuss specific figures, he says the sticker price for Lagos is "significantly more" than scrap prices, putting the potential profits to the TTC in the millions of dollars.

It is not unusual for technology from western nations to end up in poorer countries. Marketplaces in Africa and Asia are flooded with North American clothes, computers, and even cars, but the purchase of larger technology like trains is rarer.

The cars will have to be significantly refurbished to fit existing infrastructure in Lagos, and some Nigerian media reports have lamented that the government appears to have settled on "tokundo," or used, trains instead of brand new vehicles.

Although half the cars are more than 30 years old, Ross is adamant they are perfectly safe and are only being decommissioned for capacity reasons. But he also admitted the TTC is not required to make sure the cars meet any safety standards before selling them.

"Once sold, it's up to the new operator to ensure they are in good working order," he said. "They do need to be maintained much more frequently than the new trains, simply because of their age. At some point they will run out their useful life."

Murtaza Haider, director of the Institute of Housing and Mobility at Ryerson University, said the age of the cars is definitely a cause for concern.

"We should be ensuring that there is some service life left in these vehicles and we're not going to be playing havoc with the lives of those who would ride these vehicles," Haider said. "There's metal fatigue, and that metal fatigue could result in dangerous conditions. I would be paying a close watch on this for the next ten years to see how many accidents do happen in Lagos."

* In January 2013, i.e. some two years after the Toronto visit, our "excellent" former governor said the trains will be ready by June, i.e. five months after the unsolicited statement, based on his inspection & assessment of work done so far at the time =>

Lagos light rail’ll be ready in June – Fashola
JANUARY 9, 2013

The Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola on Tuesday said the first phase of the state Blue Light Rail project would be completed by June this year(2013).

He expressed confidence that Lagosians would start enjoying the services of the lrail project immediately.

The first phase would run from Marina and terminated at Okokomaiko area in Ojo Local Government.

Fashola spoke during an inspection of ongoing projects in the state which took him and his cabinet members to Orile-Iganmu, Alimosho and Ejigbo areas among others to assess the level of works being done by contractors.

The governor, who inaugurated the trackwork of the blue light rail at Alaba Suru, Coker-Agunda Local Council Development Area, said the level of work on the road and those of the National Theatre and Alaba-Mile 2 rail stations, would ensure early completion

He said, “In order to finish the project, the contractor did not go on vacation during the festive period. This will ensure that the project is delivered on time for the use of Lagosians.

* Last year, our fine-boy-no-pimples former Misita Gomina confessed he had already spent a whopping sum of N160 billion on the light rail that was supposed to be in use since June 2013. Depending on the exchange rate he used that could be $1 billion to $1.2 billion spent

How We Spent N160bn World Bank Loan on Light Rail Project

.
He, therefore, explained that the state government already “has in place, strategies to repay the loan. The federal government was in the know of the state’s decision to take the bond and it approved it.”

He added that the truth “is that what they do not also say is that no state in Nigeria can borrow money outside, from any multilateral agencies without the approval of the federal government.

“What they did not say is that they approved it. No state can raise money by bond the way we have done without the federal government’s approval. Both SEC and NSE are all federal regulatory agencies through which we must pass. If they said okay, it means there must be something good about the debt.

When is the light rail going to be delivered, the project seems to be going on for years?

I just said it, it’s being funded by Lagos State and the Federal Government support is not there. But I believe strongly that we will create a financial restructuring that will allow us to deliver that light rail within the next 18 months.

I really want to ask him some pertinent questions on this issue but i'd let it pass. anonimi do you mean there r no positive developments in ur area ?. Kindly share with us the projects/developments going on in ur environs.

In my areas of Lagos, Oyo & Osun states there is NO worthwhile positive development compared to the:

* six years (1954-1960) of Awo
* four years (1979-1983) of the UPN governors i.e. Jakande and Bola Ige for Lagos and Old Oyo states respectively.

And they had much less budget per capita to spend.

Tinubu ordered yorubas to vote for pdp agains acn,really?.Tell me more...

.............because you asked and I am feeling generous this weekend

Some here may not understand the import of these results. It shows that after the collapse of ACN/CPC talks, Jonathan was able to secure a guarantee from Tinubu and the other ACN leaders to soft pedal in the South West for him to have a foothold in the region, hence the bright showing of PDP in the West. On the other hand, Ribadu and Shekarau agreed to support one of their own - Buhari, hence the resurgence of CPC all over the Northern States.

These things could not be announced openly due to the closeness of the agreement to the election date, but the messages were relayed to party leaders at ward levels and also to party agents, hence the incident of ACN agents voting for PDP.

The fact that this election throws up is that South - South coalition can defeat the Northern oligarchy in free and fair elections - that is, if Jonathan wins. The great sage, Awo foresaw this possibility in his lifetime which explains his oft recourse to selecting Igbo Vice Presidential candidates, but the propaganda machines of the oligarchy prevented a south-south coalition to see the light of the day. Today, Awo is being vindicated, the south can actually win the presidency of Nigeria without bowing to the shenanigans of the oligarchy.

Again, I ask, What have u done to effect positive change?

Apart from populating NL with GEJ pictures, what have you done to enhance development in Nigeria as a whole and particularly in Yorubaland?

You are just angry that your regular source of N1000 per month has ceased after PDP lost the elections

If you dont like this thread, go and start a new one to highlight your concerns

Seriously, you should be more concerned about your physical appearance than the future of the Yoruba nation.

Are you so juvenile?
If you don't like my comments on this thread, you can move on as this is a PUBLIC forum.

ProfShymex:
Please, Igbos are too emotional, sensitive, covetous, greedy, and too conceited for anyone to get along with. Even on this forum alone - these traits come to the fore all time. You can't even say something before every Igbo on here will start catching feelings, crying everywhere like someone stole their biscuit. And all of them are the same. Then they've this nauseating crab in a barrel mentality within the Igbo group - hence they all will never agree on one thing.

Yorubas, based on their temperament - and Igbos - are two parallel lines that should never meet. It's never going to work.

I am resisting the temptation of yabbing you big time, seriously.
May I ask you to find out the lingusitic link between Igbo and Yoruba words showing more similarities and recent separation than most are aware of or willing to acknowledge?
Cheers.

Again, in 2011 Tinubu ordered yorubas to vote for Jonathan who was also voted for by the Igbos, so
In 2015 it was the yorubas, led by Tinubu, who aligned with the North to ensure Buhari's victory.
Do you dispute the two statements above?

MayorofLagos:
From 1999 we again recovered and were recovering losses but in the GEJ government filled from top to bottom with Ibos we were marginalized from the center.

Why are you such a bloody LIAR?
Why?

Are Akinwunmi Adesina and Segun Aganga both Igbo?
Are many of the achievements of Jonathan in reviving our industries, economy and agriculture not attributable to these people as sampled in the 15 pages of the thread below


https://www.nairaland.com/2117791/achievements-jonathan-sambo-administration-pictures



Moreover, did our de facto Asiwaju of yoruba politics not deny our sister, Hon. Mulikat Akande the #4 position that Jonathan had nominated her for in favour of Tambuwal?
So who marginalised yorubas at the federal level in the last dispensation, 2011-2015?
Who?

WIZGUY69:
What's your point?
That Yoruba youths are unemployable or what?
the problem isn't only in SW/Yoruba land, its a Nigeria problem. I can boldly say it that we are still the best despite the decay in our education sector.

Have you seen the trend in WAEC, JAMB results recently?
You should do so in a studious manner before making assertions that may embarrass you publicly.

Who's banning you guys, what's up with the mods. Is it a ploy to kill this thread?

If the thread does not address concrete issues about yoruba development it will die a natural death, surely.

Quoting facebook posts of DAWN commission that has done NOTHING since 2011 beyond noise for political mileage and celebrating (ALMOST oyinbo)yoruba people who have contributed NOTHING to sustainable development of the homeland is simply a SHAM to intoxicate any empty-headed bragger, of which there are so many among our 200 million mumu fellow citizens hence we are ruled by non-entities whom we lament about aimlessly, unable and unwilling to do anything to change our unfortunate situation.

Fayose just de weak me everyday.
the state that fayemi was trying to turn into a developed & civilized state, more like Fayose is " pressing control z" on the legacies of fayemi. everyday is eating amala & climbing trees/trailers. mcheew.
the most annoying one is Osun state.
I still don't know what's holding that state down. (portraying itself like an average northern state).
Osun got what it takes to compete with the top 8 states. mineral resources, human and the environment is there.
the only drugs/ antidote for ekiti & osun state is to woo investors. they need industries/companies to curb unemployment and boost igr.
and they need to start exploring the resources in those states to boost there GDP. not waiting on FG allocation.
as for Oyo state, I don't know what's still obstructing the state not to generate at least 80-100b as revenue.

Ogun too can do better.

Can you produce something out of NOTHING
What have we invested in the education of ALL our children in yorubaland since UPN governors were kicked out in Dec. 1983?
What have we invested?

Which investor will set up in a place with inappropriately skilled labour and insufficient pool of workers?
The investor na fool?

Even those who are building mansions like Linda Ikeji with her N850 million banana Island villa are not TAXED adequately.

ProfShymex:
Only Northerners and Igbos can get along. And Yorubas aren't generally like that - so forming an alliance with Igbos would be problematic.

You need to review the presidential election results for 2011 and 2015 so you can revalidate or correct your statement above.

Honest question, are you yoruba?

Yes, I am yoruba.

IlekeHD:
Are you kidding me?

What has Bill Gates done to ensure that ALL americans have desktops?

Seriously?

Are desktops as BASIC as education is for all children?
Are Americans lacking desktops to the extent yorubas are lacking formal education today?

Why do we HATE ourselves so much and are too LAZY to use our grey matter optimally the way our oyinbo 'superiors' are using theirs

BTW, look around your house, office, school etc how many of the things you use & even eat are the rest of yoruba/black VALUE creation that brings respect to any group?
How many?
Again, that is what should preoccupy a progressive yoruba/black person instead of this chest-beating over people creating value, generating income and enhancing the development of another group/race, not so

MrMbaM:
Just f.uck off here and go do your praise singing for your paymasters. A grown jobless ediot posting irrelevant rubbish all over nairaland for peanuts, your children will surely stone you to death when they see how useless and pathetic you are, old senile fool.

A true yoruba progressive will be worried that the major legacy of Awo that propelled us to the top has ROTTEN away before our very eyes.

Are you so shallow to draw this inference from my comments so far on this thread

Go to the Anambra or Imo thread to discuss and stop trying to derail this thread. WTF is wrong with you guys? Is it by force? I dont want to disgrace you here cos of this wonderful thread, leave us in peace.

You should post in Diaries section so no one but yourself can keep making yourself happy over things that do NOT enhance your group's power relative to other groups/races.

I like that Mr Ayo Turton. He is really Pro Yoruba. The dude carry Yoruba matter for head like afro. I always read his post on facebook.

God Bless Yorubaland.

What has Ayo Turton DONE to ensure that ALL yoruba children are educated not just about our history & culture but also in Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics, STEM to make us VALUE creators in our homeland as the Indians, Chinese, Koreans, Malaysians are doing?
What has he done beyond plenty TALK only
What?

So celebrating Yorubas making us proud in the diaspora is now a bad thing? So its a crime to do well in another man's country?


Eewoh!


What are you saying?

I am saying their success in the oyinbo land where they are hardly accepted is MEANINGLESS in the face of the contibuing DECLINE of all parametres of sustainable development in yorubaland.

If you disagree, please explain, with examples how some of those celebrated here have helped reverse the ROT in our society, particularly in education.
Thanks.

CabbieAC:
I was reading comments on the GDP thread and i saw some e-ddyot!c Igbos celebrating these figures.Mumu Yorubas too are going back and forth.Typical example of what shymmex said,2 poor people arguing about who's poorer forgetting the fact that they're both poor

Are yorubas not poor to the extent that the people you are celebrating on this thread are cotributing to the development of other races
