Like I've always been advocating, states should push for a sort of regional high speed rail network. Finance won't be a problem ie states/world bank/AfDB and even private investors so its not much of an excuse. The only thing that stands in the way now is the railway corporation being under the FG but I believe legislation can be amended for the greater good of the country. Once again, great development

This single issue is a major impediment. Reminds me how GEJ played politics with the Lagos Metro Rail Red Line.


Investors were ready with over 1 billion dollars to invest for the construction of the Red Line from Lagos to Ogun state, but GEJ refused to approve the Iddo station right off way which frustrated the investors till they eventually gave up...

Funny enough, Lagos state started this Metro Rail dream over 30 years ago, they broke ground and stationed heavy equipment in Yaba and even paid millions of dollars which the state lost after the FG refused to guarantee the loan and forex for the projects and this was done by the same PMB as the head of state.

Same way OBJ frustrated Tinubu's 271MW IPP which was the 1st IPP in Nigeria. Imagine Lagos state today without FG's bad bele, lack of vision and foresight and crass tribalism. I see many more Metro rail and fully developed rail system in Lagos state without that shameful and anti progress intervention by the FG 30 years ago and even Lagos state with many more IPPs today if not for the same shortsighted FG bad bele and frustration.


The only silver lining is the fact that Lagos state did not give up on their Metro rail dream, they just picked the right time to dust off their plans and resume work on the same project 30 years later..

Lagos state is not short of good and visionary leaders, the problem is always the FG.

*ipobs* APC propaganda, it's all lies *ipobs*

GBTYO:
Afonja

lol @ ipob zombie... ipobs and lawlessness go hand in hand...losers

The ekiti comedy and kponmo cutting clown is playing with fire.....


This is the apex of irresponsibility and recklessness..

The judicial arm of government is there to administrate and adjudicate justice, but the same judiciary is grossly lawless, corrupt and crooked even many times more crooked than the people they adjudicate...


How did we get here? Political corruption with public officials looting massive amount of cash and using the same massive amount of cash to by justice and freedom from the judiciary.


The judiciary is our last hope and until the judiciary is totally cleaned and sanitize, corruption reigns supreme..

Of course.. ipobs are always on the wrong side of history, sane and rational humanity......

slurryeye:
I will take the pain of educating a retard like you. When Nigeria was going into independence, it has just one university located in Ibadan. The regional leaders decided to build one university in each region and one in Lagos which was the Capital. The following where built, University of Ife in western region, University of Nigeria in eastern region, University of Northern Nigeria in northern region and University of Lagos in the Capital. However, when Awolowo died, university of Ife was named after him, when Ahmadu Bello died the university of northern Nigeria was named after him. But the Igbos being unappreciative and ungrateful breeds they are, they refused to name the university after their so called founding father. Instead they named him after a 3rd tier university in Awka.
Now think about that slowpoke

The worthless wailers and ipobs still support them and label everything lies and propaganda even when the thieves c..onfess .....Den don swear for ipobs

Uchenduin:
u lack common sense,so after d incidence,he wil nt ask his wife questions.
Brainless cattle rearer

And you were obviously there when he asked his wife and was briefed about over a decade old account with detailed transactions, deposits and amount of each deposits and and daily balance..?


You obviously wasn't there and you don't know anything so look in the mirror for brainless cattle rearer ....

wheredemdey:
Afonja... Child of hate and malice

Ffk would have been briefed hence he knows how much have entered the account....

Use you god given amala brain for once and purge yourself of hate, malice and blind support for dullardinhooo .....even his wife Aisha have lost faith in the mega dullardddd... Why are you killing yourself foe him...you this tiger clawed faced man?

[/s]

This was an account that has 200,000 naira in it and that has never had more than 500,000.
She has operated it since 2005 and she stopped using it in 2013. The account has no connection with me and I did not know it existed till today.

lmao.....


The clown had no clue the account existed, but at the same time very sure and know everything about the same account he didn't know existed...

The useless, worthless, corrupt and crooked clown obviously did not think through his fraudulent rubbish...

A group under the aegis of Okela Kach’Idoma has threatened to invoke the gods of the land, ‘Alekwu’ on anyone behind the prosecution of their son and former minister of Interior, Abba Moro

I fit understand if the SON shared with them the funds he looted or built a community center, a school, clinic or scholarships for their kids..


Their so called SON and his kind are the reason why Nigerians are facing financial hardship and struggling economy..


The tens of thousands unemployed young Nigerians their SON scammed and the ones that he killed in the immigration scam are other people's SONs and DAUGHTERS too..

ArabMopol:
awards upon awards despite all the hatreds from afonjas... Dr Ngozi indeed u are a blessed woman

Do you even mind listing her achievements under Jonathan?



Don't even bother, I know you can not because she doesn't have any apart from our economy and finances she destroyed..

Nigerian govt borrowing billions to pay salaries – Okonjo-Iweala

May 6, 2015Premium Times



In the face of dwindling oil revenues, Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, said the Federal Government has borrowed about N473billion to pay salaries and fund the 2015 budget.


http://www.premiumtimesng.com/business/182543-nigerian-govt-borrowing-billions-to-pay-salaries-okonjo-iweala.html

The useless woman was borrowing to pay salary till her last month in office.....



smh..

chisky02:
You mean kemi Adeosun the quack economic minister?

The useless and incompetent okonjo who presided over the largest income generation in the history of Nigeria, but end up borrowing hundreds of billions to pay salaries, sho even told us to get ready to suffer when oil was selling for $80 in 2014 did great, but Kemi Adeosun who is still keeping Nigeria afloat with oil selling for $30-40 with looted and depleted reserves the same okonjo participated in is quack?



So who is the real quack. Okonjo who stole and gave our billions of dollars to dasuki to loot and share with her cronies was the quack?

If Okonjo couldn't avoid borrowing hundreds of billions of dollars to pay salaries when oil was selling for double than now was the quack?



In fact, if her only advise back in 2014 when oil was selling for $80 in 2014 was for us to get ready to suffer and for austerity, exactly what kind of advice should we expect from her with oil selling for $40? Sell or auction Nigeria of course.



We know who the quack was and it was failed and incompetent okonjo..

Fairgodwin:
I know by now you all know I must be here as long as it's my sweet Ngozi Okonjo. Even if I refuse to comment on Nairaland in a week and I see my dearest role model, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, I must certainly be here, for I certainly cannot resist the temptation not to.


My dear Ngozi, please keep soaring higher while haters keep hating further but your fan base keep growing larger, even as your admirers keep going stronger, and I, your number one follower, keep dreaming bigger.

You're the best example I've set for myself and I shall always strive to follow your path - for you have already set the path for me to earnestly follow. I dream big.

Jonathan Had No Political Will To Save - Ngozi Okonjo Iweala

Good to know the useless and incompetent woman who failed us miserably and even admitted that she failed us and her failure is why we are facing financial difficulties is your role model.

The same woman who was borrowing hundreds of billions of Naira to pay salaries back in 2014 when oil was selling for $80 is your role model?


The same woman who told us to get ready for austerity and to suffer back in 2014 when oil was selling for $80 is your role model?


The same woman who was so incompetent to that she couldn't even keep track of our money and also who looked the other way while ministries and MDAs operated multiple accounts for years designed to loot and avoid depositing generated funds into the federal accounts we gave this woman to manage is your role model?

The same woman who either did not know Billions of NNPC dollars was missing under her nose or knew but looked the other way till SLS raised alarm before she finally admitted that $10 billion was missing?


Under this useless and incompetent woman, Nigeria was making over $100/barrel on oil, Nigerian made more than enough money to needed to successfully diversify our economy and it was her job to do so as the economic coordinator and the finance minister, but she failed to do so, all she has to show for the money we paid her and her position was a battered economy and a VIDEO she made confessing how she failed us and how she threw her former boss Jona under the boss.

The only part of her life that did not fail remains her own pocket and hustle...


If characters like this failed, useless and incompetent woman is your role model, you really need to re access your life and entire existence to avoid failure.

fitinwell:
You have been a gentle man,by giving your side of the story.. Next time please don't drop your good sense of reasoning until you have signed off from nairaland because you had a good start ..but every poor ending.. use your head next time. [/size]

You are of course very very wrong, telling you it is not by force to criticize especially when your criticism makes you sound shallow and empty was a great ending and something you should always think about before spewing illogical and thoughtless criticisms on the internet..

1 employed and paycheck collecting Nigerian is better than non and 2000 is 2000 better than what they are yet to create in your village since independence..

TSA is not responsible for the recession and also has nothing to do with the banks and the mk money problems they are facing.


The Bank was part time of our corrupt and economy under 16 years of PDP corrupt government.

When the going was good and when Nigeria was selling oil for over $100 per barrel, the banks just like the FG did not diversify their holdings or roll in new income generating products and instead banked and stacked their future on banking stolen public funds and TSA that never belonged to the Banks and should never be part of their holdings and life support.


The banks are now in trouble because there is no more looted funds to deposit and the looted funds logged in the banks are either frozen or returned to the government which remains source of their primary problem. The banks lived large on fake and corrupt economy that they helped to create.

Secondly is TSA is not their money and asking for that money is like asking for FG bailout which they are not entitled to.

Our priority right now is to lay strong foundation for real life economy where the banks, the FG and the entire Nigerian society stands on their own 2 feet and not on corruption and fake economy.


If the banks are crying for what's not theirs, then they should pack up and go home because they are not real banks.


TSA is for the FG to spend on infrastructure and crate jobs for Nigerians.

tanwantu:
So she should let go with the 20m dollars just because the fight
against corruption is not in equilibrium?

Are you minding the shallow and empty mentality people..

lmao @ richest housewife in world with no job or any means of livelihood...


Only in Nigeria

Obingo the scammer wey no even afford to pay full minimum wage salary...

Obingo the scammer..

AtlanticBreeze:
see someone from a failed region where their governors have dragged their states to rock bottom and are owning many years backlog of salaries despite collecting billions in bailouts, giving us economic advice.. Wonders shall never end.. only on nairaland

If my region be failed region, you and your poor choice people in Anambra and the rest of SE won't be running to my region for your survival and daily bread.

You should not be trooping to failed places, it should be the people in failed places running to your bush, towns and villages and not the other way around.


I don't even remember seeing my people running to your obingo villages for anything.


You slow no be Small

Useless and jobless ipob..

Henry240:
They have a plant in Port-Harcourt, Trans-Amadi area. They also have another manufacturing plant in Abuja, and are currently leasing the Nigerian Army Steyr plant in Bauchi.



You shouldn't always be a bigot.

And your rubbish alters the fact they have outlets in other places means it's not a SW company with HQ in the SW? Abeg keep quiet.

The only thing I'm happy about here is the fact that the APCs are made by Proforce in the SW




God Bless The Great Region Of SW Nigeria..

mapet:
You're not saying anything and to me it's a share waste of time.......as I see your attempt to take an escape route after you've been found out. It is crass ignorance to be asking stew.pid questions about "maintenance", on a private sector driven project..........

Meanwhile, some of us has been following this project since the day Captain Olumide was hosted by Channels TV in circa 2012/2013 and he gave a full picture of how the project will be handled

Lekki Ikoyi bridge that Fashola built many years ago that even Facebook CEO jogged on fee week ago still shinning and looking new like it was built yesterday because of what. Because of proper maintenance and this is even a state project.

These ignorant villagers care less about maintenance or any project, their main issue is the same hate and bitterness, they don't even give a damn about Lagos state to start with..

soberdrunk:
Oga please just two questions

1) How long have you lived in Nigeria?

2) Have you ever done business with the government before?

What's this meaningless and irrelevant question.?


Abeg keep quiet if you have nothing better to contribute...

Every society's future depends in smart and intelligent leaders of tomorrow, but with these unintelligent and basement mentality ipob youths, their societies and villages are doomed and we can now see why their region is so backward.

Talk about a wasted generation born and raised with hate and bitterness.

G1gbolahan:
People are sharing solid projects, you guys are showing pictures of Obiano giving speech, estate streets, roofs of houses. I'm disappointed tbh. So you guys mean there is no solid project to defend Obiano with?? After all the noise about that guy? I hope the people of the South East demand more of their governors tbh. I served in Abia too and I saw what it meant first hand, to have a useless government. Fortunately, the jokers of a governor has now been replaced and Ikpeazu looks more decent but the people must play their part. All these praise singing without any justifiable reason will not help. This is the truth, all the truth and nothing but the truth

The useless people even show obingo commissioning bank tellers.

And that's when they are not doing internet highway robbery by stealing other people's projects like Peter obi projects...

raker300:
@. Pls leave these fellows alone. Their ignorance is underlying.
The fact they mention Anambra together with osun state in a sentence shows their level of reasoning.

The Arase guy has over 10 accounts wch he uses to discuss with himself...it's shame what a man can do.

I believe we have proved our point...like a stubborn African man who can't see room to hold his govt to ransom by looking at Anambra and demanding better governance from their leaders, they'd prefer to wallow in self pity and denial.

Ignore these ignoramus thread

[/s]



Is this your super story the reason why you and your brothers can not show us any obingo projects?

Mummyejire:
After 4years of obiano government, it's this same set of people that will come out to say Nigeria Government didn't do anything for south east, instead of them to THANK aaresa for opening their eyes to what it means for a governor to develop a state, and start demanding proper accountability and dividend of democracy from their respective governor.

. what's really disgusting about these people is how they are always quick to badmouth and denigrate developments in other places while their backward villages and useless leaders gave nothing to show for their huge debts, loans, taxes and allocations.

Bro go through these links, the schools were built by private investors

http://osun.gov.ng/education/oschools/model-high-school/

Students in the high schools are within the age bracket of 15 to 17 years. This category is currently known as SSS 1-3 but will henceforth be known as Grades 10-12. The infrastructural facilities have been designed to accommodate 3000 students. Other facilities in consonance with international academic standard will include a standard football pitch, recreational facilities, laboratories, libraries, food court and examination hall to sit a minimum of 1000 students. Academic activities would run from 8am – 5pm.

Private investors would be encouraged to build students’ hostels and staff quarters on agreeable terms and conditions. The high schools would be sited on the premises of old schools with large grounds of not less than 10 hectares.

Construction work on a High School model is currently going on in Ejigbo while contract for additional 10 were recently awarded in various locations across the State. Government is committed to build a total of 20 High Schools in the first phase.


More evidence !!

https://www.today.ng/news/nigeria/176358/school-commissioning-aregbesola-decieved-buhari-osun-pdp
“We want to alert the public and President Muhammadu Buhari that they were deceived as the new school is not a public school as publicly presented at the commissioning. Contrary to reports presented to the President and the public, the school is more or less a business outfit to charge high fees in an impoverished Osun State,” the statement noted.

“In its usual deceptive and propagandist manner, the state Governor did not inform the President and the public that the school was funded with a Sukuk loan and will therefore be run not as a public but high fee paying private school.

We can reveal that the Oshogbo high school commissioned on Thursday will be managed as a commercial entity by either Olasore International School, Iloko or Corona School, Lagos. The managers are to charge high fees like the elite private schools

Abeg keep quiet...
