PoliticsSee The Car Wreck From The Accident That Killed A Popular Ibadan Politician by AutoJoshNIG(op): 2:11pm On Aug 05, 2019
https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Adegoke-Adelabu-1.jpg?w=600&ssl=1

Gbadamosi Adegoke Adelabu was a prominent Oyo politician. He was also a key participant in pre-independence southwest politics.

He was born on 3 September 1915.

He was a self-made man born into a humble family but became an influential figure in Nigerian politics.

He was Nigeria's Minister of Natural Resources and Social Services from January 1955 to January 1956 and was later the opposition leader in the Western Regional Assembly until his death in 1958.

Adelabu was a self-described egotist who believed in the merits of radical nationalism, national unity and radical socialist ideology.

https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Adegoke-Adelabu-2.jpg?w=600&ssl=1

Adegoke Adelabu is often mentioned in Yorùbá and Nigerian history as the author of that expression: "penkelemesi", a Yorubanisation of the phrase, "peculiar mess" which Adelabu, known for his deep knowledge of English, had used on an occasion to describe the opposition in the Western Region House of Assembly. Not understanding what he meant, the non-literate section of his audience translated the phrase into vernacular as "penkelemesi".

https://i1.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Adegoke-Adelabu-3.jpg?w=600&ssl=1

On 25 March 1958, Adelabu died in a car accident on mile 51 Lagos–Ibadan Expressway close to Shagamu.

He was returning from Lagos along with a Syrian businessman when their car hit an oncoming vehicle.

The accident caused riots in Ibadan as he was to be the next Premier of the Western Region.

Below is the wreckage of the car that Adelabu died in.

Car TalkWhat Does These Say About The Personality Of The Vehicle Owners (PHOTOS) by AutoJoshNIG(op):
It is not uncommon to find vehicle owners driving around with quite a mess on the dashboards or the rear end of their vehicle interior.

The assorted items that constitute the mess are sometimes wide-ranging, some of them a bit bizarre. It sometimes leaves one wondering if the vehicles also double as an apartment for the vehicle owners or driver.

Altogether, a disorderly and clustered dashboards or the rear end of the car’s interior often suggest a disorganized owner.

Granted, these parts of the vehicle are designed to hold items. However, the chaotic arrangement of items on them tends to suggest an uncoordinated personality of the owners or users of the vehicles.

What’s your opinion on this?

This photo of a Volkswagen Jetta driving on three wheels was captured on the Lagos-Abeokuta road in Lagos.

According to a Facebook user, Charles Monwuba, who captured and posted the photo, for a car that has one of its tyres missing, the car was driving quite fast.

According to some reactions to the post, cars driving on three wheels are not an uncommon sight at the Lagos-Sango-Owode-Idiroko-Paapa-Ilaro roads. These are routes commonly plied by smugglers.


Is this not the height of lawlessness on our roads?

Sirika said the Federal Government had learnt a lot of lessons from the experience of the defunct Nigeria Airways and was now determined not to repeat the mistakes that led to its demise.

He also announced that the Federal Government has selected 81 routes for the commencement of operation of Nigeria Air.

However, on September 19, 2018, the Nigerian government announced the immediate suspension of its widely publicized national carrier.

The Minister via a Twitter post made the announcement.

Sirika, in the tweet, said,  “I regret to announce that the Federal Executive Council has taken the tough decision to suspend the National Carrier Project in the interim. All commitments due will be honoured. We thank the public for the support as always.”

It was learnt that the suspension was made because the Economic Management Team (EMT) did not approve it when it launched.

The EMT is chaired by Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo.

About N1.2Billion had already been spent on the branding and launch of the Air Nigeria project.

PoliticsGovernor Ihedioha Re-Opens Peace Mass Transit Park Shut Down By Rochas Okorocha by AutoJoshNIG(op): 1:05pm On Jul 19, 2019
The biggest park of Nigeria’s foremost commercial transport companies - Peace Mass Transit (PMT) – has been re-opened.

The park located at Control Post, World Bank Road, Owerri, Imo state, was shut down during the administration of Rochas Okorocha.

According to sources, the closure of the park was a fallout from a squabble between former Governor Okorocha and the Chairman of Peace Mass Transit.

The park was shut down all through the duration of Okorocha’s second term in office.

Last Monday, the park was re-opened amidst cheers and jubilation.

The Imo State Government -led by Rochas Okorocha -  through the Environmental Transportation Transformation Commission (ENTRACO) and Owerri Capital Development Authority (OCDA) enforced the shutdown of the park.

Peace Mass Transit (PMT) has operational depots in over 65 locations across the federation.

The company commenced operations over two decades ago.

He noted that the water transport sector is grossly underutilised in terms of harnessing its economic potential.

According to him, “the current traffic situation indicates that 95 per cent of transportation is done by road in our state of over 22 million people, with about 25 per cent of the landmass consisting of waterways.”

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu was represented by Deputy Governor Obafemi Hamzat, at the event with the theme: ‘Lagos beyond road: the intermodal transport option’.

The event had in attendance, the Minister for Roads, Housing and Power, Babatunde Fashola, former, Speaker, Lagos State House Of Assembly and National Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA) Managing Director, Senator Olorunnimbe Mamora, etc.

What Is The Reason For This Recent Trend On Cars In Nigeria (see PHOTOS)


https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Car-Sticker-6.jpg

Car door handle sticker films are used to protect car door cups from scratches or marks. These scratches and marks are typically left there by rings, nails or keys when drivers are in a rush trying to get the door open or the key in the lock.

In new car shops, these stickers are placed on cars on display for sale in order to keep them from getting scratches from the constant opening by a potential buyer.

Typically, the stickers are removed as soon as buyers take possession of the cars.

Interestingly, in Nigeria, car door handle protector stickers have become quite common features on cars on the roads  – even on cars in derelict condition.

On these cars, the stickers give an outstanding feature on the cars that they are placed on.

This recent fad thus begs the question - Are these stickers for decorative purpose or to protect the car handle cup from scratches, marks, etc?
