Politics › Re: Fashola's Attempt To "School" Peter Obi Gone Wrong by Badgers14: 7:03am On Jul 03, 2022
abdulwastecx:
You are right!
But Fashola's job is limited to the provision of infrastructure, in particular, road infrastructure. He is not saddled with the responsibility of providing security and the management of the fiscal policies of the country. Hence, the provision of easy loans, stable interest rates, and strong security should be directed at the appropriate people responsible for them.

Furthermore, road infrastructure is an important ingredient of production. It enables the movement of goods, services, and raw materials from rural areas to the center of production.

Finally, The second Niger bridge is a crucial infrastructure, an asset that the southeast has been craving for decades. The question is why is it been greeted with a lot of cynicism by people from the region? Is it because it is been built by the wrong party and the Afonja they hate so much?
If I might respond to the bolded.

I will say you got your assertion wrong.

For the most part people in SE feels differently about the 2nd Niger bridge because of the slow process of the project.

The Hongkong - Macau bridge spanning more than 50km was built within 8 years and 2 months .

The second Niger bridge is less than 2 kilometers and how long have they been building it??

SE feels FG are slow on the project because it is located in the SE, FG don't care about them that's what the resentment is all about.

But Mr.Abdulwastecx, As a respected Building Engineer, you know that Second Niger bridge have been under construction wayyyyyy longer than it should..

Had job offer... But there's a part of contract that's making me so scared. It says employee should not join any other company doing similar things or selling similar products for the period of one year, after terminating his/her appointment. Is this not a modern form of slavery?
In IT- silicon valley. This is almost like a norm.

Politics › Re: Court Orders Immigration, Others To Release Nwamini’s Details To Ekweremadu by Badgers14: 3:35pm On Jul 01, 2022
festacman:
Under normal situation, embassies take their time to scrutinize visa applications from young Nigerians. Numerous questions are asked and vital confirmations made before visa is issued.

Now, given that Senator Ekweremmadu wrote to the British High Commission stating clearly what David Ukpo Nwamini was traveling to do, did the High Commission officials not interrogate the applicant to confirm his mission before issuing visa?

And this question is important given that the boy denied knowing what he was traveling to do.
Did Ekweremmadu state the deal his family had with David on the letter to British high commission?

If the letter circulating around is real, then maybe the Ekweremadu's misled thr British high commission? Because if the British high commoner David was paid for his kidney, they might not have given him visa for the travel as according to my understanding, it is illegal in UK for one to sell there organ.

PO stands for Peter Obi, the river didn't dry up, it simply moved out of Italy to Nigeria so as to support Peter Obi, once Peter Obi wins it would relocate back to Italy. In the meantime, they should bear with us.

KosiGee:
A gynaecologist called Ernst Grafenberg was the first to describe the very sensitive area or the particular spot.

The G is from Grafenberg,..just as Circle of Willis was named after Dr. Thomas Willis who was first to describe the arterial connection/link in the brain.

I think G spot sounds better than Grafenberg’s spot.

Modified: I misfired…My response has nothing to do with G string…I was half asleep when I typed the above…Not sure why I mistook G string for G spot.
Ok, comrade.. well noted grin

Politics › Re: Reps To ‘Apply Diplomatic Pressure’ To Ensure Ekweremadus Get Justice In UK by Badgers14:
They are just trying to save one of their own grin

But frankly, Ekweremadu's case is a diplomatic headache for UK, not only diplomatic headache, if the case isn't handled correctly it could taint the image of UK and could cause an uncomfortable anti social in UK as well.

Some People would view this case from the lens of "Rich against poor" indeed Ekweremmadu occupies a top position that could have made the life of David better.

There's no normal, have a job 21 year old that would be willing to part with their kidney for someone not related to them. But Because of inability of the govt which Ekweremmadu occupied a very important position to provide infrastructures and amenities to help the poor to get a toe hold on the social ladder, David "allegedly " was willing to sell his kidney to survive. So some people will look at the case from this lens, Rich using the poor at will.. poor man die, Rich man lives.. Rich keeps getting richer and living longer at the expense of poor masses and Ekweremmadu happens to be a high ranking politician as well.

Also on the social impact on this case, depending on how it was handled the outcome.. many people with similar criminal case will be running to the court to overturn their convictions or reduce sentence or acquit them .. this is a criminal lawyers bread and butter grin but this does damage a country's legal system.

On the diplomatic side, UK doesn't want to be a safe haven for anyone to feel comfortable to commit a crime in no matter their diplomatic status , they don't want to be safe haven for anyone to come in to finalize any criminal intent or criminal action or activities so they are threading very carefully..

Also, regardless of the outcome of the case, UK might not have any option than to offer asylum to the David guy understanding how powerful Ekweremmadu is in Nigeria politics and how even his own state government of Ebonyi state are leaning on support for Ekweremmadu.. they might not have a choice to offer him an asylum and if his family receives threats, they might offer them asylum as well.


Since Ekweremmadu is a politician many people don't even want to hear the details of the case, they want him to stay in jail for life grin

That's not a new thing that there's slot for VC, HOD, Dean.. in most federal and state universities

Shameful that an institution that was supposed to promote integrity are the ones rubbishing it.

FFK says "YOU WERE WELL PAID"

I do not know how he knows this
But if that is true that is criminal in the UK regardless of age
FFK don chop and clean mouth for ground..

As usual, they have given him something and he is singing like a bird.

He thinks he is helping Ekweremmadu, but he is even sabotaging his case.

Frankly, assuming that Ekweremmadu played the boy and his family tape on the deal (pending for sure if paying an organ donor is legal in U.K, it is illegal in the U.S)
folks are hugely upset that Ekweremmadu didn't do much in anything to Improve the infrastructure here in Nigeria.

He has occupied juicy positions in the senate , he has been in the corridors of power since 1999 but look at our infrastructures here in Nigeria. His kids schooled abroad while ASUU since when? It is hard to see anyone that graduated from a Nigerian public university that didn't experience some sort of strike.

Folks are just angry , upset about the neglect of the common man by the politicians while masses are suffering, they are enjoying, using the common man as a sacrificial lamb so there own family can live and enjoy the good life.
