Ikwokrikwo:
What an unbelievably stupîd logic.
Are you saying that if the Federal government decides to reserve the over 4000MW of electricity it currently generates for aso rock, federal agencies, hospitals and offices, those place will not be guaranteed uninterrupted power supply? Even 10% of the 4000MW will achieve that, but they aren't as selfish and pennywise pound foolish as your Fashola.
If the Federal govt decides to cut Lagos off its so called ''worthless'' grid today, what happens to the millions of homes and businesses in Lagos? Is it Fashola's 8 MW generators that will power them? Get yourself a brain.
With all the Federal allocations and IGR at his disposal for good 8 years, Fashola has not added a single Megawatt to the national grid.

phantom:
ekoile,its not a sin to criticise fashola and its even more worrying to me that this man is one of our best. it shows you the standards to which we hold our leaders. picture this man doing this sort of thing in the UK.....does the picture still look good to you?

Nobleval:
you mean your FG. I know Lagos like the back of my hand. Whenever I visit Nigeria I do notice that previously lit road are without light.

Btw I have a house and does my business there.

Taking one step forward and stepping back twice ain't progress dear.

phantom:
I agree with you! our leaders should learn to shun unnecessary propaganda and just get on with the job.
imagine posing in front of a switchboard with a huge smile on his face. the whole thing is irritating if you ask me.
light up Lagos streets without this fanfare. it's shameful.

Very exciting to see very functional and productive state institutions branching out and creating sub institutions needed to educate and grow critical technical workforce and manpower to move the state forward.

Eko o ni baje o...

Nobleval:
Op I hope you'll be here to tell us when he switches it off.

Ikwokrikwo:
You want to replace 48 small generators with a big 8MW generator.
Why should I be bothered?
Don't call such nonsense an IPP.

SamIkenna:
Like seriously? Define progress and tell me if we're missing in action. By progress you mean Boko Haram?

thewarrior72:
^^^^This man above me remember the moniker u quoted is averse to foolishness & takes no hostage in war. to be forewarned is to be forearm. Stay off my mention while u defend your slave masters & do your servitude.....From where I come from, opinion(s) of serfs is inconsequential, hence doesn't count

SamIkenna:
We see things differently. Maybe 16 years of keeping Arewa away from power to enable them come to terms with their humanity and mortality is worth more than 2nd Niger bridge.

In less than 5 years of core north losing presidential power can't you see the nation is re-calibrating? Don't worry about Boko Haram, its also part of weaning process - they'll get there and when they do they won't be needing 2% cut-off for unity school admission any longer.

I believe the only way we 'll be able to approach pseudo-nationhood given our bloody history is by seeing each other as a leg in this national table. The core north right now is not there yet but they sure will, else Arewanistan awaits them down the road.

thewarrior72:
GEJ may not have done much to the southeast, but the little he did outweigh all(if there's any) OBJ did for SE.
And how many of those castigating & writing endless article in national dailies(specially from southwest axis) against the igbos, for they support for GEJ did so during OBJ 8years reign that the igbos unflichingly supported him, with nothing in return?

Suddenly [b]thesame people that hated,loathed & marginalized the igbos [/b]while in government have taken 360 degreeturn to remind us that we are not getting enough from the government of the day & hence should reconsider our stand...what an irony?, Anyways, does this people think that igbos are fools or suffers from amnesia?.

Whether we gain anything or not, I and my family are for GEJ, anything to stop born to rule gamberians in 2015 is ok for me.

The Jonathan presidency is modernizing the Lagos–Kano rail which is bound to have a significant impact on the economies of these two states and their neighbours. Neither Lagos State governor Babatunde Fashola nor Kano State governor Rabiu Kwankwanso has ever kowtowed to the president for this strategic and capital-intensive initiative. But the moment the president promised he would start the second Niger bridge, Peter Obi, in his capacity as chairman of the Conference of Southeast Governors, mobilised large delegations of Igbo leaders in a well-choreographed show of endless public adulation and obeisance to Jonathan.

Ikengawo:
So because igbos didnt join apc they should die or what? Is it a crime to support GEJ? Yoruba ppl need to move on with their life

Curlieweed:
I can't decide if you guys are serious or just trying to be diversionary with this kind of statements. Is this simply a lack of understanding of the constitution (primary school civics)? When did the President become responsible for jailing criminals? What is the job of the judiciary and what is the place of separation of powers?

GEJ talked about institutional reforms but that flew right over their janjawid reactionary heads. I just tire for all this ignorance. I will just stick to the sexuality section.

EasternLeopard: Is as if you are new to NL

Ask people who know me on NL I do not run away from discussion of new ideas to problems

You asked me what things we can invest in to generate income

That is a good question you, I and others should search an answer for if we not lazy mentally.

Remember

What you read in your economic books were people researchs suggestions trials observations etc that were documented into books you now read as Economics

Except you believe this knowledge fell from heaven like Oduduwa or whatever his name is

EasternLeopard: What the states govt should have done first was to invest the loan into things that can generate enough profit to wipe off the loan and fund non/low income infrastructures.

deeobserver209: Totally agree.

deeobserver209: Very true.

deeobserver209: In other words if they know the truth, the truth will open their eyes and they'll will be set free. From lies and propaganda. Nigeria shall be great again. God bless Nigeria!
GEJ TILL 2019!!!

aresa: You obviously don't know the importance of infrastructures when it comes economic growth and prosperity, but there is no point trying to educate you in that regards..

Now, please list exactly what income generating schemes you thing they should be investing in ...

EasternLeopard: What the states govt should have done first was to invest the loan into things that can generate enough profit to wipe off the loan and fund non/low income infrastructures.

Firefire: @ GenBuhari,

Ebola disease is a bogus.

The west is just looking for every means possible to demonize the giant of Africa (Nigeria).


They have failed.

anonimi: I think you should STOP making this debt & non-performance simply an issue for south west states ONLY. Otherwise you will seem like an ethnic warlord. We yorubas can certainly deal with our THIEVING BASTARDS of leaders.

Almost all the 36 states are in the same terrible situation.

anonimi: Please STOP telling very stupid LIES trying to defend the senseless LOOTING of Lagosians by your boss and his godfather.

Atouke: what has lagos state to show on ground? with a monthly IGR of 20billion monthly why should the the borrowing? and unGodly ammount of $1,020,410,674billion

aljharem: Moreover it is a known fact that Lagos generate more revenue than Akwa Ibom and the level or should I use RATE ! of infrastructure in Akwa Ibom is farrrrr greater than Lagos.
