Cold hard numbers and facts (before and current):

1) Unemployment?
2) Homeless?
3) Internally Generated revenue?
4) Infant mortality?
5) GDP per capita?

If the above facts cannot be produced and backed up then everything else is hot air!

ACN = PDP

Lol! Cold hard figures?

19 - the number of buses of aluta howlers arrested while on a useless and wasteful praise singing journey to Abuja
3 - the number of months salaries owed to Osun state workers.
9 - the number of months it took Aregbesola to choose ministers and set up a cabinet.
3 - the number of days in each month Aregbesola is estimated to spend in Osun state, while not living in Lagos.
2 - the number of high officials Aregbesola is alleged to have slapped.
4 - the number of months that Osun's tertiary institutions have been on strike and students at home.
2 - the number of times Aregbesola has publicly claimed that he was not elkected to pay workers.
50billion - the amount Aregbesola claims the World Bank will give Osun to cut grass and catch squirrels.
40 - the number of wagons Aregbesola claims to have bought for the NRC / FG in a high story.
40 - the number of rail coaches Aregbesola claims to have bought for the NRC / FG in a high story.
1 - the number of train stations Aregbesola claims to be building for the FG at Dagbolu.
1 - the number of railway lines Aregbesola has built for the FG in yet another high story.

etc etc.

Cold hard numbers ti poju!

Lagos is sub-Saharan Africa’s greatest metropolis and the commercial hub of Africa’s oil-exporting largest nation, but its public infrastructure struggles to cope with its vast population.

Any help with transportation is great for Lagos. With the unholy amount of suffering passengers at rush hour in the city every week day, transportation is one area where any loan can easily be repaid and with change too.

efisher: Pls do u have the details of the pilot scheme? I am very interested in this. Thanks

No, I don't. I would really love to have them as well, any state selected for 24/7 electricity trials is lucky indeed. I'll be watching to see what happens in Anambra and who the other 6 states are.

I guess the electricity infrastructure would have to be revamped and upgraded first, so we aren't likely to see any immediate changes; more importantly, we don't know when the pilot scheme will kick off.

oyb:
what a desperate liar beaf is

i thought there would be a lie about how there has been uninterrupted power supply in anambra - not even that just the usual 'plans'

abi gej is cleaning house and beaf is feeling threatened?

You are the desperate one here, because I simply posted an article published by http://leadership.ng.
Why not go to http://leadership.ng to fight with the editor to show how "clever" and "right thinking" you are? Or even better, pick a fight with an agbero?

If you have nothing sensible to contribute to the topic, then waka!

If Nigeria begins to disintegrate today, Ihejirika go face im front and hansa im papa name.
Right now, he is expected to defend the nation.

Activa:
Continue to show your disdain for Aregbe. You are just deceiving yourself. . It does not stop me from loving him. the more you attack him, the more i love the guy. Na so this life be. bad belle no go make honey bitter

Face your own GEJ problem and Uduaghan rubbish. I prefer Aregbe to those two men 1million times.

Your thoughts would be very different if you were one of those being owed several months salaries, while watching as your governor immerses himself in Lagos state and feeds you with high stories instead of taking care of issues at home.
When do you think Osun states workers will be paid? Do you think they will celebrate xmas and the new year?

Its like id!ots that leave Nigeria as Seun to become Shawn abroad, or Ngozika becomes Godwin. God punish them!
If you ask them the reason, they will tell you its because whites can't pronounce their names. Can we pronounce white peoples names? And do the whites in Nigeria change their names because Nigerians can't pronounce them? Its sickening.

Whenever I meet anyone that does that crazy "Africa" thing, I silently make mental notes, if they are white, I'll take my time to educate them if they aren't racist scum; for black people, the rope is shorter and for fellow Nigerian's, I show contempt.

gregg2:
Aregbesola is failure

. . .Just like anybody owing the states workers close to 3 months salaries and claiming to have bought trains for the FG (alongside a million other tall tales). It is only a couple of months ago since he hired his commissioners.
His tenure is hope shattering and almost indescribable.

Osun is the seat of culture in Nigeria and deserves much better. What can be compared to the Ife sculptures and Osun Grove whose beauty seduced Suzan Weinger away from her native Germany, to naturalise as a Nigerian and citizen of Osogbo? The sacriledge Aregbesola and his likes are committing in Osun is a stack example of the general decay Nigeria has gone through.

emiye:
Are you not ashamed of yourself?

Why? Would that become an Aregbe achievement?

You could have listed some achievements if there were any, or countered my points if it was possible.
The truth is bitter, Aregbesola has achieved nothing and is unlikely to achieve anything. Osun states workers are owed several months salaries, while Aregbesola shows undivided interest to Lagos.

[size=14pt]Anambra Assembly Commends Jonathan Over Power[/size]
Fri, 25/11/2011 - 1:12am | DAVID -CHYDDY ELEKE

President Goodluck Jonathan has received commendation from members of the Anambra State House of Assembly over his plans to commence a pilot scheme for uninterrupted power supply in Nigeria using seven states as a test case.

The lawmakers also expressed their joy that Anambra State was included in the first seven States for the pilot scheme and called on the Federal Ministry of  Power to ensure that the President’s dream of steady power supply was achieved.

Hon Tony Oneweek Muonagor, in a motion seconded by Hon. Rita Maduagwu and unanimously adopted by the entire House, yesterday, commended President Jonathan and said that the singular act of boosting power supply in the country would impact positively on the economy.

“Imagine what will happen to most of the companies that had folded up some years back due to epileptic power supply, it will go a long way towards resuscitating the moribund companies thereby enhancing employment of youths”, Muonagor said.

Hon. Gabriel Onyenweife, Hon. Tony Ezekwelu and other members of the House expressed regret that for years, communities in their constituency had not felt the impact of electricity and had resorted to the use of generating sets.

The lawmakers also expressed optimism that with constant power supply, ailing industries in both Onitsha and Nnewi would spring to life again.

http://leadership.ng/nga/articles/8951/2011/11/25/anambra_assembly_commends_jonathan_over_power.html

One year of nothing but hot air and claiming the FG rail project as his own. It is a unfortunate that he is more of an Alimosho based Lagos politician than Osun state governor, even worse is the the fact that he he only appointed his commissioners a mere couple of months ago, while awaiting the dry season of his second year to commence governance.

Some more interesting achievements are that, while he is owing Osun states workers several months salary, he was able to organise a 19 bus aluta trip to sing praises in Abuja. They were arrrested.

Aregbesola is by far the worst politician on Nigeria's political terrain.

As well as the phone logs, all those who made those strange and funny public apologies to boko haram should also be arrested. Those so-called apologies might actually have been coded messages sent in broad daylight.

[quote author=ndu_chucks link=topic=810886.msg9627612#msg9627612 date=1322186661]Last week Tinubu callrd For New Thinking To Resolve Indigene/settler Question, this week he calls for SNC. He spoilt everything by adding "Sovereign" to the national Conference because "sovereign" just rendered his suggestion unconstitutional, illegal, treasonous, and illegal. The only way I'd support a so-called nationall conference is if the participants in such a conference do not include a single former or current politician, including Tinubu. They want to share the rest of the country among themselves. all of dem be onye ara.[/quote]He is just making his usual populist statements that have no weight. Its all hot air.
A committee has been set up to review the constitution and it is being done in a clever way that will exclude his type from having any influence whatsoever.

It will blossom into a National Conference at some point IMHO, especially as GEJ himself has said it will expand over time to include representatives of the various ethnic nationalities; in that sense, therefore, Tinubu's harpless thrashing about is useful to popularising the end result of the review process.

It is as a result of cowardice, foolishness, shame for where they come from because of the pressures of a racist World and a total disconnect from their roots.
I always look down on such types as untrustworthy and will never ever be involved in any sort of serious business with them.

Java has failed on the PC desktop and internet. PC desktop dev is done in .NET or Qt, while internet pages are predominantly .NET or PHP.

For those claiming that Android is Java, I wonder what they think about Oracle's patent suit against Google's Android platform and Googles own arguments that Android is not Java? Or Microsoft collecting patent fees from 55% of Android licensee's, the likes of Samsung and HTC?

For those of us that witnessed the birth C# and their scary Java clone, Visual J#; we only see a familiar trajectory. Google, like Microsoft did earlier, is simply hitching a ride on the Java train until they can come up with their own language, except Google is much more involved in a do or die battle than Microsoft ever was.
C# is thousands of times better than Java will ever be and we can expect that when Google comes out with its own language (if it doesn't adopt C#), it will also be miles better than Java.

If what runs on phones is Android and not Java, then Java is well and truly dead and only putting up a pretend existence.

Una de make kobojunkie vex o!

According to this bad, wicked and strange argument, GEJ is not part of the FG. lol:

Kobojunkie:
Look up the meaning of the word CONTINUITY, especially as applies to Government, because it suggests an ACTIVE succession, a flow of activity at least.

There has been no mention of any actual interaction between the Jonathan Administration and the Katsina Wind Project.All you need do is investigate the project -- information is available online on said project. Please, stop playing the zombie, and try to actually engage in finding information (much of which is now available for you to investigate for yourself). to educate yourself, rather than these desperate attempts at finding reasons to rationalize the irrational claims. At least make sure your praise is worth more than that of the millions of other zombies out there in Nigeria land.

Jonathan Goodluck campaigned the last election by pretending it was possible to remove himself from the administration before his(something any rational being would have known to be impossible to do), and he was able to convince millions of Nigerians that the irrational was possible --he won the election that way. Since his re-election is based on his not being part of the last administration, it then follows that he cannot claim the works of the last administration as part of his achievement, UNLESS, he actually contributes DIRECTLY to the successful completion of said projects. (This is not science).

I posted this very same article a year or two ago. The author is simply exagerating fears and half truths to keep the untenable status quo going; that is the reason the author has a very strange concept of Nigeria consisting only of the Niger Delta and Arewa, with the Igbo, Yoruba, Middle Belt and all other ethnicities playing peripheral roles.

I don't see how keeping the country together is preventing any of the ills we are witnessing, in fact our forced union, without even the simplest contractual agreement is the reason we have problems and the reason Nigeria will inevitably break up.

If there is a way of forcing that money out of the pockets of the NDLEA goons, even if it means selling them into slavery, then let it be employed.
The barbaric "do you know who I am" methods the rich and those with authority use on the masses has got to be stopped. We cannot continue to behave in uncivilised ways.

If there is a way to jail the NDLEA people for slander and abuse of office, then let it be found. The baba suwe saga was as dissapointing in its crudity as it was disgusting and wicked.

If you cannot abide by school uniform rules, then keep away from school. Simples.
They can wear their hijab's at home just as Cherubim and Seraphim folk wear their gowns and discard their shoes at home.

@Beaf

I am deleting your last post and i did apologise to them because you took it upon yourself to insult them in your post and on the thread created for complaints.

if you have no more complaints to report PLEASE stop posting the same thing over and over, playing victim does not help you at all.

if you fail to report posts, either via report to mod or on this thread and reply in kind, both parties will be dealt with accordingly.

I have cleaned the links you gave btw.

let this matter rest please

Mukina, if when I report, action is taken then I wouldn't bother to fix things myself; that is what I have been saying over and over. My last post proved everything I have said so it wasn't fair to delete it, I did ensure that the whole conversation was backed up, though.

Thank you for cleaning up those threads, even if its belated and thanks for your time.

@efisher,
do u speak english bcs others are speaking?
in all ribadu's noise, name one federal criminal(politician) that he jailed.
we saw bode george and cecilia ibru arrested and convicted by this same woman.
it is madness that we support devils in power and we rejoice every poo that comes from them.
we are a group of useless ppl in a useless jungle.

It is Ribadu's noise that made the EFCC name. What did Farida do? Even cases she was expected to wrap up vanished under a pile of contrived confusion.
An anti-corruption czar that has no fangs and is in bed with sleaze needs the boot.

It is incredible that anyone can even begin comparing Farida to Ribadu. Lol, its like coke and 7up.

One thing I noticed about Farida, initially, she wasn't too concerned about fashion, but these days I can't help but notice that her nail polish always matches her lipstick and spectacle frames. It takes a lot of vanity to match spectacle frames with nail polish.

macjive01:
Nigerian Internet users may again begin to experience disruption from this week as the Nigerian Telecommunications PLC, NITEL, at the weekend, indicated a fault in the SAT-3 cable.

According to NITEL, the fault was caused by a ship that maliciously anchored on the non-anchor zone of the high sea which caused a cut in the SAT3 submarine cable.

Do you mean the undersea sat-3 cable is actually on the satellite? An a ship is anchored on the satellite in the sea?
Where is becomerich to draw the satellite picture for this?

mukina2:
what's the name calling for? if you cannot post without name calling then do not post in here, one more like that, i'll delete it. see how you exposed yourself?

The mod has taken out time to reply you, but you are still going over and over  the same thing.

The word "slimeball" is rather mild when it is in response to stuff like this:

Demdem:


Expired kunt produce.
Working so hard to distract peeps from topic.
ACCURSED, such a clown.
   

No?

mukina2:
I am going to say this once, wont say no more on this issue, you know how it goes if you break the rules .

1, you were banned for posting a thread, and changing the title to bkbaby and the thread in question had nothing to do with him, it was about a Colombian man, i changed the title you changed it back  and you got banned. If you are going to lie make it legit. this is the thread : https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-481371.0.html

So how come multiple threads with content that has nothing to do with Beaf have been allowed? Even making it to the front page to create the illusion that I work for govt? Even if I did, what would that have to do with NL opinions? What about the numerous Reno Omokri = Beaf threads, why have they been allowed?
You are the Supermod, is Beaf the same person as Reno Omokri? Since you know that is not the case, you have totally contradicted yourself and confirmed what I have claimed. Again, even if I was Reno Omokri, what would that have to do with opinions on NL?

The main reason I am posting here is to find out who the rules apply to and if they change with the seasons. The reason I was given for that ban was that it is against the rules to personalise threads, that is what has put me in a quandary, madam. Because it seems that those rules do not apply to certain people as I have amply proven, it also seems that the same goes for forum rules against bullying, harassing, parent abusing (as is evident on this page).

So who do these rules apply to? Let us have a proper definition of who the privileged and under privileged on NL are, so that we can individually fit in and obey the rules as they apply to us.

mukina2:
2, you are in the habit of posting pictures with inscriptions directed at Nl members and posting pics in threads where they have no business being in, that is posting offtopic and deliberately derailing a thread, you've been warned a lot for doing that. You've done it to lots of people.


stop playing victim, i have been doing the warning/banning so i know

I wouldn't post pictures if the same rules applied equally to all. Pictures are a last resort, because the mods don't apply the rules equally, I have reported demdem and his clique several times and absolutely nothing happened. Perhaps, these people are mods as well.

mukina2:
@demdem and drumma boy
sorry about that please do not reply his insults.

@ all
please let this be the last on this issue, the thread is for complaints and nothing more.

Wonderful! So this what I have been saying does not amount to complaints?
It gets even better, people actually get apologies for contributing death threats (drummaboy) and stuff like this!

Demdem:


Expired kunt produce.
Working so hard to distract peeps from topic.
ACCURSED, such a clown.
   

I guess I know who the rules apply to. It is clear as crystal. LOLZZZ!!!

Thanks for your time.

I said much more than you addressed above. You have made no comment about the harrassment threads like you didn't see that mentioned. The fact that they are encouraged is an of favouring certain positions and smothering others. Nobody has told us that NL is some sort of rightwing website where extreme positions and ethnic bigotry are favoured, while genuine voices are shut down by corrupt practises from mods.

That we have slimeballs like demdem saturating the place is totally down to bias moderation; he is here on this thread boasting about stalking others, calling them accursed and insulting their parents private, yet here you are, a mod shivering and quacking like an olympic jelly. Yet you can thunder and belch molten rock about a couple of funny images, posted because moderation is biased and cliques are rampant.

I will provide two examples that cannot be denied:
[list]
[li]I was once banned for 3 days for calling bkbabe out on a personalised thread in the tribalism section, after getting thoroughly sickened by his racist and bigotted posts. However, threads that are targetted at harrassing me make it to the front page. Who are you fooling?
Perhaps the rules are just written in a different colour ink for friends and cronies. Or even worse, these ugly creatures and ethnic bigots might even be moderators, signed in with different user id's.
It even got to a point were as a direct result of those harrassment threads NL promotes, a wretched creature called drummaboy claimed he and his colleagues had marked me down to be killed. Maybe shabby moderation deserves praises and accolades?[/li]
[li]I was once banned for 5 days for linking to an image that is on a thousand one NL pages, yet you told me it was because I uploaded a disturbing Unclad picture. It wasn't even a Unclad picture, because I do not do such nonsense; it was of two politicians swearing an oath. Who are you fooling?[/li]
[/list]

In any case, how is this post not in the same category as any of mine? https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-791838.128.html#msg9444009

The most shocking story I have come across though, is how mods could raise a whopping N800,000.00 for a politician during the election period. Is that possible without trading fairhandedness? It is simply shocking.

OAM4J:
@Beaf

dayokanu did not ask me to clean the thread. I went through the thread, saw all the insults and posted that the thread will remain locked until the insults are cleaned, I then locked the thread because I couldn't clean it immediately. It was some hours later dayokanu made the post you quoted on the complaints thread asking when am I going to clean the thread so they can continue posting on it. If you read his post carefully, for him to post that means the thread was already locked. When I finished removing all your insults and demdem insults i unlocked the thread, removed my initial post and then replied both on the complaints thread and on the thread that it has been unlocked.

I asked you to show me demdem's post that I left after deleting yours not yours that I deleted.

The link you gave me https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-791838.128.html#msg9443837 is a link to your post where you quoted demdem's post which I already deleted and not demdem's post that I left.

I would have deleted that post if I had noticed you quoted the insult but I was only looking at what you wrote if it was an insult or not. The reason you couldn't find the original post from demdem on the thread was because I deleted it.

Also the rules of Nairaland forbid insults/harassment against another member not against public figures. We do not ban people for harassing public figures else you too would have been banned for many public figures you have harassed, but we plead with members to respect public figures.

Lolzzz!!
If the bolded is true for everyone, why do you regularly delete the pics I post while leaving the baba suwe ones of GEJ dayokanu posts on the very same thread? Strange, but it would seem that the rules apply differently.

Also, how come you deleted all my pics on the thread we are arguing about, but dayokanu's pics remain? Mystery!
https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-791838.128.html#msg9444009

And, oh before I forget, so it is against the rules to be harassed on NL, but threads where Beaf is the topic for bashing are a regular feature?
This is getting funnier by the minute!
In fact, I recall clicking the reverred report to a mod button on several occasions about such threads, only for exactly nothing to happen; to top matters, as soon as I reported one, it made the home page! Can you beat that? Lol!
That is the first and only time I have seen a harassment thread aimed at a particular NLer making the home page and yet you want to convince me that there is no bias and that there are no cliques whose agenda's are playing out.

Naturally, it has also bothered you more that I called demdem a fool than his rather choice words, fresh from the gutter have bothered you. A funny picture, it would seem is more harmful than gutter words. Talk of a scale of priorities gone wack!

What about the numerous Beaf is Reno Omokri threads? IMHO, the only reason they have been allowed, is to create objects for bashing, afterall you and I know that I am not Reno Omokri.

Congrats for a job well done.

Demdem:
Mukina sent me a message and I feel out of respect I should respect her by acknowledge such so if in your daft state u call that whining, so be it. I can't help u. I only stated the facts and honestly up to whatever u throw at me.

If u live in glass house then don't throw stones. As long as u start insulting me first, there is no limit to which my insults can't go on u. It's your parents u are crying about now, u will be amazed where my next Target will be. To avoid this, u stop insulting. I have never initiated any insult on anybody on nairaland including u, pls prove me wrong on this.

As per calling u ACCURSED, what do u want me to do about that. U called ursef such like I will always say and u have not for once deny it. I'm only helping out in calling you what u proudly call ursef. Go to the thread dogs taken over delta reloaded and read your comments there.
Honestly, I feel its an injustice on my part for anyone to persecute me on this.

Bottom line here is never u throw insults and NONE will come your way

You are not even on my intelligence level to be noticed, talkless of getting insulted first by me.

Dude, I never knew you until you started following me around and calling me accursed, which you claim is not an insult. If the mods do not see fit to deal with it for whatever reason, then I will embarrass you as I can, because your choice of gutter words do not flow from my mouth. Its as simple as that.
Any insults you get from me are a cummulative effect of months of your behaving like something wiped off the toilet floor.

That pic about accursed, was made specifically to tackle you after months of putting up with it; if you think that one is embarrassing, you should see the next two!!

syncsilver:
@Ozin:

just like GEJ (the commander-in-thief of the armed forces), Marilyn Ogar & the likes of them, u have just proven to us that u lack the mental capacity for constructive thinking.

If u do not possess the ability to analyse critically & logically, pls, step aside and make way for those who can.

In my opinion, the SSS is just grandstanding. They are nowhere near the den of bombers & are now desperately trying to ''save face''. Everything they are doing is playing out to be a poorly written Nollywood script. The system is too corrupt, and personally I won't begrudge the boko guys if they succeed in purging our nation of these political gods that continuously seek to cripple our economy.

And with such dissapointing thinking, you are actually bold enough to challenge an intelligent persons mental capacity? Wonders!
What two year old thinks the innocent people murdered randomly by boko haram bombing have anything to do with corruption or govt?

Dude, sit in front of a mirror and deeply question yourself, cos your battery is weak and you are tired.

He seems to have lost portions of his fingers.

I have been singing it on NL that me and some friends got chased by head hunters in Ilorin. Let the deaf hear so they don't lose their heads.
If you hear some very sweet drumming. . . RUN!!!

TRUTHTELA:
@ Beaf, Sir,  I do not think rolling out names will make any difference, in regards to the TERRORISM that Nigeria is dealing with now. Anybody can wake up & call my name or decide to implicate me about something,but, in the eyes of the LAW, you have to prove ( EVIDENCE) that he has sponsored terrorism in the real sense of SPONSORSHIP. Mind you, the names to be called is what I termed ( Na dem- dem), PDP? Give this drama one week. And I found it very funny, that the " supposed Boko spokesman" just pleaded guilty instantly. I stand to be corrected, I read that the magistrate tried asking him a question & the SSS men rejected him answering, that it will jeopardize investigation. You don't have all your facts & you're in court. I don't get it. Someone can educate moi.

I read a newspaper article where the SSS says it is trawling through Modu Sheriff and Ndume's phone logs and that quite a few more high profile arrests will be made shortly. So the investigations are still in full swing, but it would seem that either they have got more than enough on Ndume or they feel he might have been spooked and ready to run, so he was arrested and arraigned immediately.

For the guy thats freely confessing, none of us know the techniques that have been used on him to make him wax lyrical. The SSS might be cautious about anything he says so that those not yet arrested wouldn't get any details from the courts and do a runner (or kill witnesses etc).
