agbameta: That was basic English...

oldenglish: Please I do not know which section to post this all I need is insight.

Ok am in Europe, last yr Xmas I shipped a some goods to NIGERIA and was in Nigeria myself but could not sale the goods before I left. I handed the goods over to my brother, somewhere along the line a friend/brother told my bro that he can sale them very fast and my brother gave him the goods and he demanded for the import papers so that he can take them another location without police disturbing him. All along he keep on telling me that the person that want to buy them gave him a bounced cheque, from one story to another. Now it's obvious he sold the goods and he is now in UK but refused to contact me.

Now I want to make a case with Nigerian police or Efcc for them to declare him wanted, once done I will ask them to forward a copy to British police and see if they can send him back to Nigeria to answer the case.

Please i want to know if it will work.

agbameta: In fact if guilty as charged, lock him up for good and throw away the damn key...

odua boy: This election is a sham..

AtlanticBreeze: Here market women protesting the sham by Peter obi and Inec, infront of inec office in Awka today.

talktimi: I still cant fathom why someone from Ekiti is very much interested in who becomes governor of Anambra state & gets angry when his prefered candidate loses out.

bloggernaija: Go to google map and view a picture of Lagos from space.
Almost Every single inch of it is developed.
Done
Now Locate alimosho or ikorodu on that map

Finish?
Ok
Some sense.
More people live in either of the two LCDA than the entire akwa ibom state.
More streets , more drainages,more vehicular traffic,more vandals,more criminals etc
Where in the world do you people think money fall out from?
From the sky ?
Or from trees?
I am tired of people posting pictures of roads that do not have much vehicular traffic .
Almost like going to NY and complaining she doesn't have Disney world.

With so much materials available to study ,I cannot believe how ignorant people can be.
By the way, Lagos is pave more road than all of the states and in some cases, whole regions.
Even I,many miles across the seas, know that the Lagos state government have a scale of preference for construction/maintenance of roads.
THE MOST ECONOMICALLY IMPORTANT/ STRATEGIC FIRST.

TRANS WEST AFRICAN HIGHWAY
IKORODU EXPANSION
LAGOS METRO
EKO ATLANTIC
LEKKI FREE TRADE ZONE
LEKKI OIL AND GAS FTZ
LEKKI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
FIFTH MAINLAND BRIDGE
LAGOS -IBADAN HIGH SPEED RAIL.

the last three are still on proposal

Only a deep mind would understand the importance of these projects.
These are not groundnut project.

These are wealth creation projects .

MAYBE IF MANY UNSKILLED ECONOMIC MIGRANT FROM OTHER PLACES(including akwa ibom) HAD not migrated to Lagos in the first instance,due to oppression and corruption,incompetence and lack of priorities setting faculty on the part of the politicians ,
Just maybe that place would be a forest reserve .

omenka: Since when did it become unlawful for nigerians to move within Nigeria.

geeez: What's wrong with what he said?

As at today, there is nothing like resource control by the federating units

He's made a valid point and he also admitted that he's not afraid if Nigeria divides but we must sit to discuss

The oil in Bayelsa belongs to Nigeria, which Jigawa is currently a part

Until this not the case, the oil in Ijawland belongs to Jigawa like he said

Rad1cal: See the yeye source. Abu Wetin

berem: The argument was that they were APC touts that were sent to rig the elections. Now that has been countered and cleared! They are actually election observers. What else do you want clarified? Can't you just give up? Whether they were trained in owerri or maiduguri, does it really matter? The way some of you reason eh..... I just tire!

django1: The protest was by soldiers of all ethnic background, all of them have representatives of each region in every state of the federation.

Tolexander: HUNDREDS of angry Biafran military pensioners in the country Monday besieged the O[b][/b][b][/b]yo State Secretariat saying they regretted fighting against Biafran soldiers to ensure the unity of the country.

They said if they had known that the country would repay them in this wicked manner, they would have fought for the survival and sovereignty of Biafra.

The retired soldiers who spoke through their Chairman, Mr. Mr. Gabriel Oiakhena said, “we have been pushed to the wall. The families of over 500,000 soldiers who lost their lives in Biafra are suffering.

We who are alive are just living as destitute. Many of us have died because they did not have money to treat and fend for themselves. Senator David Mark has spent about twelve years and he has done nothing for us.

When the militants were pushed to the wall, they took up arms and fought with the last pint of their blood”.

Also speaking on the issue, another ex-soldier, Mr. Olatunji Johnson said they came to draw the attention of Federal Government to their 53 per cent unpaid arrears and other allowances.

To prevent breakdown of law and order, all gates leading to the secretariat complex were shut against the angry pensioners.

Armoured Personnel Carrier, five police Hilux Vans and scores of armed policemen were stationed at the entrance of the secretariat.

Displaying the injuries they sustained in the Biafran War and many placards condemning the discouraging attitude of the government, they said it was unfortunate that they were being treated in this inhuman manner after fighting for the unity of the country.

He said their mission to the office of Governor Abiola Ajimobi was to present a letter on their plight to him for onward delivery to President Goddluck Jonathan.

He said, “we will not allow the government to rest until our money and other entitlements are paid. Many of us are still being paid N10,000 as monthly pension while they are wasting millions over there. It is not fair”.
