TravelRe: NURTW Chairmen In Various States In Nigeria by BlackBaron: 8:52pm On Nov 22, 2019
Sign of the under development in Nigeria.
NURTW represents the bulk of the under employed and barely educated youths politicians have failed over the years.

To combat their excesses, the same government has given them quasi legal rights to extort majority of businesses in order for them to survive. Added to that, these youths are readily available to politicians who seek elective positions.

Assuming it was such a honorable position, why are the politician children not Chairmen in their respective states.

There's something in Nigeria that stifles people and their potentials like this becoming world beaters. The lack of an enabling environment, infrastructure amongst others.
Good to see him and others recognised ever so often.

Our freedoms are retrogressing under Buhari and his Gestapo DSS.

When the annals of this country is written, let no one forget this regime would rank as one of the possible worst repressive government.

What do you mean by spatial awareness?
I mean driver's and crew visibility. I have no issues with the vehicle otherwise.

CrimeRe: Man Begs UK Police In God's Name After Being Caught With Expired Car Insurance by BlackBaron: 12:08pm On Nov 08, 2019
edoairways:
I suspect the dude was on high speed when the police stopped to check for relevant documents. "I beg you in the name of God indeed", was he expecting the officer to be lenient because he mentioned God or does he thinks this is Nigeria where many use religion for cheap blackmail.
They use ANPR (Automatic number plate recognition) which can scan databases for your insurance, driver details and other information such as theft.
They only need to drive behind you for a few seconds to detect a problem.
TravelRe: Hyginus Omeje Describes Taking photos at accident scenes worrisome by BlackBaron: 8:29am On Oct 27, 2019
elohim24:
I think a law should be passed punishing anyone caught doing this, Nairaland should also put a check to this, any thread containing graphic content should be deleted. I have no idea what people tend to gain capturing other's nightmares in still and video photography. Smart phones have really made some of us dumb in Nigeria.
I agree with this. I have made several posts here on Nairaland plus even petitions to senators to pass laws against publishing such photos. It's macabre and disgusting to see mangled and graphic content. I don't know if Seun has a fetish for such contents!

So, who is Tinubu's brother or sister that gave birth to Fola Tinubu.

Fola Tinubu is nephew of Tinubu and also the MD of Primeiro

So Lagos state government just gave 800 buses to a private company owned by Tinubu's nephew!
What are the terms of this 'subsidy'...?!!

Are they paying back? And why a monopoly on BRT for Nigeria commercial capital

There's more involved in becoming a major car manufacturer as you'll have your own in house automotive designers, engineers, etc who work together to create vehicle concepts, shapes and engines.

As of now, they don't own the IP of the vehicles it produced. Innoson should aspire to produce concept vehicles penultimate to a 'new' original product and get more interactive on social media (like Proforce did)

By the way, cars are too expensive. Look at TATA India as an example.

Nothing has been negated. I just did a search for 'Tacha' only to see 6400 pages of BBN updates! The number of watchers on that thread is also in the hundreds as at late this night.

Our fathers ruled themselves 30+ years ago, yet the same old men are still there while youths are dying over reality TV.
TravelRe: If Nigerians Are So Smart, Why Isnt Nigeria Developed? by BlackBaron: 3:15pm On Oct 05, 2019
Reference:
The argument I and many have against more taxation is the purpose not the amount. Without accountability taxation is futile. We should make a point for reform before accepting it.
I believe we're getting to a phase of accountability with FG and few state governments. I'll be concerned about paying taxes in states like Lagos whose operations and contracts are shrouded in so much secrets.

I believe strongly the education in Nigeria is beyond standard and except the few who expand on what they're taught. This applies in STEM subjects especially...
TravelRe: If Nigerians Are So Smart, Why Isnt Nigeria Developed? by BlackBaron: 1:01pm On Oct 05, 2019
They're more 'mouth' than talk. Actually less than a 3rd are really 'intelligent'.

Post an article about BBN and a topic on critical governance and watch which gets more discourse on Nairaland. Or watch how a 2.5% VAT increase to 7.5% (one of the lowest on the planet) evokes many pages of argument.
I mostly blame under investment in education.

PoliticsRe: Lagos Light Rail And The Problem Of Accountability - Businessday by BlackBaron: 12:31pm On Oct 01, 2019
NGpatriot:
Targets and completion dates are mostly realistic intentions but mostly doesn't account for delays necessitated by lawsuits, intransigent and uncooperative landowners, landlords, infrastructures like pipelines, electric poles, drainage and other unforeseen issues.

ROW issues obstructed this project for 3 long years so to tell you the truth, sure timing could be better, but going by 20 years delay in Mumbai and delays even in places like Dubai and the US with similar sets of issues, Lagos state is not in a unique situation.
You keep skirting around the issues. The key title in the article is 'accountability'. No project on this planet without issues, eg UK HS2.

As stakeholders in Lagos, we then deserve to cast greater scrutiny of the contract to understand cost overruns and complications.

From all indicators, it must be like most other contracts in Lagos with party loyalists swallowing % of the project money only for it to get bogged down.
HealthRe: I Bedwet Even As An Adult....please Help Me by BlackBaron: 12:18pm On Sep 30, 2019
You have a hormone issue where it can't regulate urine production during sleep time. Vasopressin production is supposed to increase when sleeping to suppress urine production hence bedwetting.

No cure yet though you can take medication.

Below is how the folks on skysrapercity you are talking about addressed the delays, they know all about the project, they've debated the topic and posted pictures and analyzed the delays with sensible rational and not single rubbish about people stealing money.

We know the reasons for the delays.

You made a mistake by referencing them to prove your fraud and scam comment because they are not into such childish talk, they are serious thinkers.
Environmental challenges apart, there's still a lot of fraudulent practices within the Lagos State government. We have no details on costings, legal issues and whatnot. Citizens are largely left in the dark hence why very little is known. This project is already 14+years in the making!
If Nigerian government was serious, it'll have started a public inquiry.

If you want intellectual discussions on the state of 'infrastructure builds' in Lagos, go read skyscrapercity.

Otherwise, who doesn't know the Lagos state government is a corrupt institution without transparency. One of the states famously known for failing to respond to FOI or release basics of signed contracts.

CrimeRe: Mothers Of Rescued Almajiris In Kaduna Support School's Harsh Methods by BlackBaron: 7:43am On Sep 28, 2019
There should be a law (if not existing) that ALL children MUST be enrolled in school until 16 years. Penalty should include fines or prison sentence for parents or guardians.

Northern Nigeria is massively underperforming in educating their population and this is a detrimental effect on Nigeria.

PoliticsRe: MC Oluomo Invited As A 'Special Guest' In UNILAG (Photos) by BlackBaron:
MC was probably adopted by the Lagos State government to otherwise quell the many thousands of unemployed youths and given a legal umbrella (NURTW) to extort commercial transporters. 'It is a crime management scheme (not prevention)

Fortunately, the absence of jobs also means many turn to it to meet their livelihoods. To see him celebrated means many thousands would soon be attracted to this way of life. Our youths already mostly unmotivated and 'not outside of the box thinkers' are already embracing them.

This video below is example of what they do! Funded by Tinubu for keeping control of Lagos politics.
