Smh...No need arguing back and forth with someone who decided to be mischievous...
My last reply you on this issue is;

11km was written in your link...but Op has 44km and going by the towns named which the road/bridge connects and passes through; then the figure is simply correct by my own estimate...

Your map showed Asaba vs Onitsha...But Op showed the road runs through to Nkwelle-Ezunaka...a town outside Onitsha including bypassing Nkpor etc Any road covering such mileage is worth 44km....Till you prove that such distance isn't worth 44km then you have no case....thanks

Whynotthetruth:
bolded describes you...Reason why I don't mention or answer any of your mention because you're both a sadist and bigot(tribalist) of worst type....

BTW SE aren't complaining of the toll...Wonder why you cry more than bereaved...Can you love me more than I love myself...Buhari should Allow the work go on...and toll it...I don't care so far I have value for my money....Value here is good job done on the road....thanks

Dear All,
I received several messages from some friends seeking to know whether or not I have dumped the PDP for another party (after reading a deceptive article on Nairaland Forum that alleged that I've dumped PDP).

I have been on self-imposed sabbatical/rest from political brohuahua of this country. I was billed to resume my political activities this coming Saturday but I had to cut it short to respond to certain issues.

1. It is devilish, wicked and unpatriotic for someone to propagate that I am defecting to the conspiracy called APC. My commitment to the PDP and Good Governance project is not a subject of debate. I am absolutely Pro-PDP, and at present working very hard to see that the party returns to power in May 29, 2019. I have the responsibility to put the confused present administration to check and to enlighten Nigerians on the happenings of the government.

2. I wish to state that I have decided to quit the Nairaland forum. However, I'll continue to post, comment and analyse issues that affects Nigeria's socio-economic and political development. I will be posting through my newly created personal Facebook page (Tonye Barcanista) and on Green9ja page on Facebook (www.Facebook.com/forum9ja). Some of my post will also appear on FCTpost.com.

My Facebook URL is: www.facebook.com/tonye.barcanista

3. I appreciate the love and support I've got from members of Nairaland forum. It is my desire that the support continues even as I move to FB platform. I also thank NL founder/admin and moderators of this forum for their support all through my stay here.

4. I want to restate that I remain an unapologetic patriotic wailer. My wailing shall continue in FB.

5. I am preparing an article on the state of affairs under the pathetic leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari and the fraudulent APC. The article shall be published on Green9ja page on Facebook this weekend (Saturday). My Nairaland account shall go down in the coming days.


May God Continue To Bless Everyone of Us.....Amen.

Why not try BPE site or even this article here...cost is 108b not 117b or 138b or 140b bandied by Oshiomole and co...

Anyway, buhari/APC want to cancel the project probably to punish SE for snubbing them hence instigates such controversy as this and simply rely on it to cancel it out...

Isn't BPE, Mins of Work etc under buhari?...Why can't he ascertain veracity of this project from them than allowing different figures & doubt about project existentiality flying around?...smh

What is Tambuwal doing there? He should sit down in Sokoto state and try to bring change to his peolple instead of globe trotting with their meagre resources.

This book is for historical purposes, for proper documentation of an era in Lagos State. In the future, these images will be a source of narrative truth about post-military Lagos culture. Historians and curators will also have a feast sectioning episodes on how the Fashola administration confronted the most important challenges of our democratic transition. Some of my colleagues in photojournalism are focused solely on showing bad sides of this country, but I wanted to show, with this book and my images, that there is hope in this country called Nigeria. I wanted to show what can be done when a man of vision is at the helm of affairs.

Is it a book of photographs alone or some texts are included?

‘THE FASHOLA YEARS’ is a comprehensive photographic documentation of Governor Fashola’s activities, programmes and projects in the sectors of Education, Health, Transportation, Infrastructure, Security, Environment, Tourism, Housing, Law and Order and Governance in Lagos State, from 2007 to 2015 . There is accompanying text of facts and figures.

What has been your experience working with Governor Fashola?

From his example, I learnt a lot about the guiding principles of life, including the value of promptness, humility, hard work, and the continuous strive for excellence all the time, I watched at very close quarters how well Governor Fashola exhibited these qualities for eight years and these are lessons that are not taught in classrooms.

Recall a memorable day/moment in the journey?

Memorable? Memorable! In 2007, during campaign period, he told me that when he becomes the Governor he will send me to Photography school to hone my skills, and he did. He sent me to London school of photography in 2008. What made it memorable was that I thought he would have forgotten because we had not even won elections at the time he made the promise.

What challenges did you face?

It’s not easy at all working with a person like Governor Fashola. There are no days off because you have to always be on your toes. But even that has helped me to be a better photographer so I thank God.

Why are you combining the book presentation with exhibition?

So that people can see more of my work through the Exhibition. People often ask me if it is only Governor Fashola I take photos of. I wanted to show a wider range in my portfolio, that’s why my Curator selected these images.

How many works are you exhibiting and are you covering the Fashola years alone?

There are 40 images in all, carefully selected from the millions in my images bank.

Do your photographer friends envy you for being a governor’s photographer?

Well, I will say YES, some do while others just appreciate God’s blessing in my life.

By the way, how fulfilling and rewarding has it been?

It makes me happy! To photograph a person, a public figure like Governor Fashola, for a long time, is a great gift to the photographer… Rewarding, I had the unforgettable experience of traveling all over Lagos state, Nigeria and the entire world. I also had the opportunity to be around, see and photograph some of the greatest statesmen, leaders, captain of industry, writers and artists from Nigeria, Africa and the entire world.

maxwell530:
I don't need to argue anything with you here.....come down to Ekiti and see what's happening here.

maxwell530:
aresa or whatever u are called,did u think project commisioning is what most nigerian need?

A government that commissions many projects and find it difficult to pay its workers salary is as good as failure

....have you ever ask yourself why fayemi failed to win a LGA out of 16 despite all his aclaimed commissioned projects in Ekiti?

Before you start throwing insults, am a confirmed homebase ekiti and am more closer to both fayemi and fayose administration more than you folks from lagos can imagine.

Pennywise:
it's a pity that a state that is as enlightened as Ekiti is governed by an attention craving lunatic.

tomakint:
......but your comedic Amaechi wasted 8 solid years building one mumu monorail for billions of naira while Fayose is affecting lives of the masses, see what your Amaechi was busy doing.......

Forwetinnah:
Thanks for exposing your inability to comprehend ...spread your mat and snooze. You APC dundees are such numb skulls. The caption clearly states " The Car Fayose drove. ...." and your here looking for site pictures, since you're so bent on being busy, look for the site pictures yourself

GbengaJimoh:
The pictures were taken when he was still on his way na. Haba! The title of thread focuses on the "truck"

I think I have to do a research on d cause of uncontrollable libido among yolibas

Forwetinnah:
Does that look like a site to you? So if people stopped him on his way to his destination...he should run them over??

Eluwilussit:
Don't be a bigot. Can you tell us the powerful positions the SE held in Jonathan's govt? Only Anyim was holding a key position. President was from SS. VP was from North. Speaker North. senate president, North.

I can't speak for Jonah or Nigerians, why the West was not as prominent in that Govt as they were in OBJ's. It could also be because it wasn't long that the west held sway, through Obasanjo. Besides, Gbaja and some others, sold the speakership to the North.

Besides, for the first time, the SE was represented in a Nigerian govt. is that a crime?

As for the last paragraph, I am with u. The Igbos shouldn't expect nothing from Buhari. It was expected.
