₦airaland Forum

All i see is USAID on the desks of a federal university in Nigeria. Are things that bad?

Shinapraise:
I work in Iseyin. And I have been to Ado awaye countless times the people are friendly and good the economic activity is gradually coming up I use to visit the place every week .

Can you tell us a bit more about the place from your experiences of the town in terms of food, the ppl, etc

amaniro:
see as him black like shit

Very stupid statement

OJUcrook:
Nnamdi Kanu is the greatest man in Igboland

Nnamdi Kanu is greater than Ojukwu

Nnamdi Kanu is greater than Chinua Achebe

Chinua Achebe put Igboland & it's ppl on d world map, not by force but with his brilliant mind

A lot of ppl seem 2 be ignorant about the Office of Vice President

After all this country has been thru for d last 16 yrs all u guys can crow about is d tribe of appointees?!! Una never serious yet

They will make up in d end. One thing is for sure whether anybody likes it or not, in d context of d Nigerian factor, Fashola did a brilliant job in Lagos and nobody can take that away from him

My ppl Self hate is a disease, they are Yoruba, they are Nigerian & they are African, why would anyone abuse their own if their mental faculties are intact

Nashville:

So funny how they alternate between Reuben Akpati and Doyin Okugbe.

Okugbe goofed by comparing GEJ to Mandela so he is on one week suspension. So now it is Akpati's turn to bark.

This week alone Tambuwal, Sanusi and OBJ have all accused the president of encouraging corruption. And these are all PDP members.

Very soon GEJ will blame Amaechi for all this!

Those names u gave them...too funny abeg : )

1025: did he say anything against pdp? is he in partnership with any anti pdp politician? if the answers to these questions are yes, he will be forced to change his stand and gain his freedom but if the answers are no, then he will be released within a short while and be awarded a national honour immediately.
tax evasion is not a crime in nigeria.

Its funny when u put it bluntly like that, but u are absolutely right in your analysis, sadly

ritux: The public bus system in Edinburgh. The bus time tracker. I know exactly the time the bus will pass through the closest bus stop to my house. 99% accurate and effective.

Lothian Bus Company too much. I can't wait to get into a public position and do that in my Senatorial District.

No forget o

sleek_p: Where did I say Igbo in my post? I said "our" turn meaning peoples of the SE/SS. Am from the ss and I support her whole heartedly, at the end of the day its our resources not yours. If we feel the ibo's desearve it, thats our prerogative. If you don't like it, go jump in the sea.

This mode of thinking will continue 2 keep Nigeria in perpetual fucktitude

Don Magic Juan: These americans and their stupid technology.
Big clunky gas guzzling crap.

I dont know when the average americunt will begin to realize that big SUVs and trucks can never and I mean NEVER help in any way in making up for a small schlong.

Made my day : )

What baffles me is how people can get so close to a crash site without any police enforcing boundaries

Posting pictures of charred corpses is totally uncalled for. Pls respect the deceased & their heartbroken families

Abagworo: I think a new thread on Rwanda is needed in this politics session. I've been motivated by the pictures. Our problem may not lie with leadership alone but bad followership.

You make a very valid point. From my stand point the followership actually encourage & endorse the appalling practices of the leadership, especially the chattering classes

oko-oloyun:
I change them every 2days coz i dnt wear them overnight but d rate at which rat dey vex this days made me change ma mind make dem no think sey ma blokos na suya.

Looool, i dey cry with laughter

The bottom line is Tinapa regardless of its location should be flourishing. However the vision of Donald Duke was relegated by the incoming govt & FG for various reasons, mainly lack of foresight & ego

Hold your horses guys. All we want ask for is the continuous development of Oyo state and Ibadan in particular

He was an African Icon. Posterity will smile kindly on him for he left his mark. A huge loss 4 Africa

Chai the guy don hear am, but it is an eye opener 4 Nigerian organizations. PROFESSIONALISM matters

Congrats

If there is truly a govt in place there is no way that road would be in that state. So how do they expect tourists to get to obudu ranch? People like me are busy advertising the fact that we have beautiful tourist spots in Naija and this is the BS one has to go through to get thereRidiculous

Did he really say that!!

Another good tip is after brushing with toothpaste rinse both mouth and brush and then brush again without toothpaste

@Rossike thanks for the enlightenment. Africa is thriving and developing fast, outsiders can see it and are investing while African's themselves sit back and wait for uhuru.I try to inform in my own little way about our beautiful continent( and no i'm not wearing rose tinted specs). Check out my blog www.dimejijunior..com

Congrats to the Comrade Governor and the people of Edo state. The other states should take heed.

We need a brave and fearless leader no doubt, but Buhari is getting long in the tooth, we need leaders with fresh ideas, with a more worldly view and not too much baggage.

There r some idiotic comments being made on this forum. Are some of u saying the minister shouldn't be fired coz she is from the southeast or because u think she bears no responsibility? When u are given a sensitive position as minister of aviation especially with our poor record, the first thing to do would be to make an assessment of how the airports are run and how airlines are regulated. You and I know things are not done properly are you telling me she was not aware? Pls don't bring idiotic tribal sentiments into the discussion coz we are dealing with peoples lives.

India seems to have a very good record in terms of aviation consideri ng their size. Properly regulated maybe??

Kobojunkie: I hope Dana Air sues. What do you mean shutting a business down simply because you want to conduct an investigation.

People are, as always, too quick to jump to conclusions . . . we are not sure of what happened and it is nonsensical to suggest that this is the best the government can do at the moment. We have a ministry of Transportation, and a ministry of Aviation for pete's sake. What were they doing BEFORE this happened?

You know as well as I do they r not operating in a properly regulated environment and so most of these airlines take d mickey. The govt have taken d right decision at this time.

[b]aasog1: This really troubled me. Watching him weep like this.
GEJ, you need to be a man. Crying publicly doesnt mean you are less of a man. But you could still salvage things. You need courage, lots of it at this point.
You need to stop feeling like you dont deserve to be the president! You need to start acting like YOU CAN Be the Best President this country ever had.
Stop pointing fingers. Use the stones the oppositions are throwing you to build a monument....JESUS!!!! I feel like I should shake the president a bit
Fire all those political jobbers who are presently appointed on the basis of favoritism. Theyve stolen enough. And yes, we all know you employed those people because they campaigned and politiked for you during the past election.
Corruption is killing Nigerians, not witches and wizards! For crying outloud, who the hell is Bokoharam in any nation with a good security agency.
Everything is falling apart sir. You need to for crissakes: Man UP!!!!!!! Stop acting WEAK!!!!![/b]

My sentiments exactly ny brother, in fact as i stated elsewhere the aftermath of this sad episode should be the removal of the minister of aviation (just d state of our airports alone is enough to get the hook!!), the removal of the head of NCAA and then deal severely with dana air and d rest of the blood suckers. This action should be immediate. Show ur people you've got big KAHOONAS!!
