Shut the fvck up. I'm from a royal home

Me also King Kosoko is my ancestor, but Bola Tinubu from Osun State is your Kingmaker?

tollyboy5:
Shut your mouth. I'm a native of Lagos. The minority natives are not satisfied with the development we see. Only immigrants praise tinubu that much

What makes you a native of a no man’s land, unless you are talking of parts of Badagry?

flyingpig:
Liar

What is a lie?

RuudVanNisteroy:
Lets see how this play out. He has his stooge in power in Lagos, who will refuse to turn over documents to the court relating to Alpha Beta.

No case submission, everything is I hear say, Tinubu said he should transfer the shares, so it is his word against the other majority directors? Rubbish, even if, is Lagos State Government complaining of Alpha Beta not delivering on it’s mandate? The event occurred in 2002, he is bringing a claim in 2018, statute of limitation has kicked in.

Nodogragra4me:
That is not what shehu's statement sent across.

At any rate an issue as fundamental as reorganising the foundation of Nigeria cannot come from just nay quarter but the presidency. They are to give to go ahead that this nation is not working as presently arranged. Once they do that, the Nass that is even presently happy with their rubber stamp appellation will produce the United document for the president to sign.


The elite from the core North wants their ordinary citizens to believe that the present arrangement suits and empowers them but that is not the realistic on ground as every indices of development points to a backward North compared to the South


With their overwhelming numbers in the seviruty services, insecurity is still the number finance guzzler in the region.

With federal institutions lined in every state of the core North, they still lack the world class manpower in many states to fill positions of responsibilities if merit was the only yardstick


Let me not continue abeg

You forgot the right side of your brain in the locker room, Mumu.

OJay360:
Lol, so that boko haram can now come to the south through train, idiots dey waste money like fools, I'm not into all these apc and pdp matters but is this not bad enough? what will it profit you to build a railway from Ph to a war torn state with over 3 billion naira and you can't settle ASUU so we can resume school

Edit: Chaiii na even 3b dollars, I guess this was what Saudi Arabia did that made them great today since they like comparing us with the Saudis

If you have nothing sensible to contribute, please shut up.

Notasyouthink:

Ok, so are you a dead animal?

Notasyouthink:
He should come back to the zoo and join you in suffering and smiling.

Shame!!!

Is it not the same Zoo he is fighting to reclaim independence for?

DelTel:
Wawuuu, so you and other commentators above never hear of this version of scam

Ahamefuna0001:

Ahamefuna0001:

daddytime:
And the born to rules are the kings of the miserable.

Even irony will look at this irony and burst out laughing.

Look at your own self, and remove yourself from poverty?

Shehuyinka:
SAVE for an elderly man and a little boy, no older than 10 years old sheltering from the smothering sun, the open-air trampoline roofed shack was almost empty.

Four months ago, Olayemi Oluwafemi, 35, a welder, would has been seen at the shack, cutting and soldering together iron rods for burglar-proof doors and gates, which were a popular order from his clientele.

The ear-splitting noise from his rickety 3.5kVA petrol-powered generator indicates that residents of Kwamba in Suleja, Niger State, were without electrical power supply, again.

Oluwafemi, a father of four, was running his welding business in Suleja at a loss. He was spending N1,000, One thousand nairas ($2.60) daily to purchase petrol to power his welding machine because electricity from the national grid comes up only for two hours daily.

He barely makes a weekly profit of N10,000 ($26.04). A hard pill for him to swallow, considering he pays N10,000 monthly for electricity consumed from the national grid.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, his flow of customers from Suleja slowed down to a trickle. This prompted him to tag along with some of his friends to look for welding job opportunities in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital city– 30 kilometres from home.

The interstate lockdown at the time led to a price hike in the transport fare, which made it financially difficult for him to commute from Suleja to Abuja weekly in his quest for new opportunities.

After shuttling between both cities, while working for some clients in Abuja he packed up shop in Suleja, permanently relocating his workshop to Abuja while his family stayed back in Niger State.

“If I was going to train my children with this work, staying in Abuja permanently was the sensible option. Besides in Kwamba here, I was spending over N1,000 daily on fuel, and that doesn’t stop the electricity company from charging me N10,000 for the estimated electricity bill every month,” he said.

Since he relocated to Abuja, the welder only sees his kids on the weekends when he visits home.

The city of dams, darkness, and dirty alternatives

Niger state is home to three of Nigeria’s largest hydroelectric generation dams—Kainji, Jebba and Shiroro constructed in 1968, 1985, 1990 respectively. A fourth dam is currently under construction.

The ride from Suleja to Abuja takes barely an hour and 30 minutes. Because of its proximity to the Federal Capital Territory, it is easy to erroneously assume Suleja enjoys constant power supply, just as the FCT.

However, the rural city is often plunged into days of darkness with no electrical power. On such days, small enterprises such as a beauty salon run by Ogbuanohs that rely solely on electricity to run their businesses are left to grope in the dark.

Ogbuanoh, 18, had a piece of paper on her hands with which she fanned herself and her sister Blessing Ogbuanoh, 38, at intervals.

The Ogbuanoh sisters run a beauty hair salon on Old Nepa Road, Suleja. For the next 10 hours, this section of the town will be in a blackout.

The electricity distribution companies (Discos) are rationing electricity supply and the shops on this lane will have to wait their turn.

The electricity power supply had been interrupted since 11 am that morning, barely two hours after it was restored and the stylists had no option but to generate their electricity for business.

And the two sisters are not the kind to let a walk-in customer leave without a hair wash and a dry. In a few minutes, the loud hum of their genset will contribute more noise to the already uproarious plaza.

To make up for the N15,000 ($39.06) monthly petrol expenses, customers are charged more for the extra service.

Over the two decades since Blessing Ogbuanoh, a mother of two has been a stylist, generating energy for her hair salon has never been as financially burdensome as the past few years.

Blame Jonathan & pdp members, now in apc, Useless Criminals.

Kudejo:
So many stupid people in the comments that want the FG to legalise marijuana and if you ask them why they will say it is because USA did it

Oyibo man colonialists that told the black man if you smoke this herb of knowledge we will punish you, has softened their stand, black man follow Follow that doesn’t know anything is still behaving stubborn? Surprising even General Obasanjo a couple of years ago, called for the decriminalizing of that herb that grew on King Solomon’s grave, least we forget, after Prophet Moses came across the burning bush, the commandments of JAH was revealed to him. Please don’t quote me, this is not King James Version.

FarahAideed:
Instead of exporting it to America where is can fetch almost 50 million dollars

Then be on the run like The Late Kashamu, when the FBI starts looking for you?

jlinkd78:
Noted

False news according to Ipob spokesperson Emmanuel Powerful, that is Habib Port, Israel, southeast Palestine.

WATCHOVER:
You are the one that is hypocritical about the whole thing here, extortions are not done only by SARS operatives, it is a general system both in the police and other institutions in the country.
They kill, because people like you argue beyond limit

What is the difference between sars & The Nigerian police? What is the difference between a police man & a traffic warden? Nigerians are so full of hypocrisy, even some kids that live in Falomo Barracks will be abusing their Fathers just to get likes on Nairaland?

Earlystar698:
Sars is terrorist organization anywhere we see them we must attack them

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu
God bless you sir
God bless Biafra

What kind of orders are these?, after you would say Ipob is not a terrorist organization?

DMerciful:
Nigerians keep making the mistake of anyone else is better, that's how we landed with the disaster called Buhari. Pikin wey dey cry dey see road! We need to open our eyes to look for competent people who can move the country forward!

I know to you I guess the majority is wrong, whilst the minority is correct?

DMerciful:

Maybe General Buhari was President?

FarahAideed:
With the damage Buhari has done we need a very visionary smart leader that can turn it around in the quickest Possible time and that person is not Jonathan ... Remember Buhari has really done over 30 years of damage in just 5 years

You most be speaking from a reflection of your life?

Niceman12:
Sule lamido is one of the best leaders in northern Nigeria.

To someone from his Local Government?

Jafar1:
The problem with Nigerians is that, even after all the sufferness, they will still go ahead and vote another idiot comes 2023 ...

In the country of the blind, your father should throw his hat into the race, so we can vote for man of great wisdom which we lack in the nigga area?

Youthleader22:
2023 is coming fast, as in just 2 months time 2020 will come to an end. So I ask myself how possible is it for the country to move from APC and PDP to something better. A new ideology that will benefit us all.

Re write The Electoral Act, if you cross carpet, you have a bye election for that position, or you miss an electoral cycle (4 years).

Mumu Ipobian, it was referring to the compound in South Eastern Nigeria you hail from.

rotadeco27:
Don't say that again, GEJ is far better than Buhari. It is the same northerners that made the country difficult to rule for him . He told Nigerians ,they wouldn't listen. People like me were shouting then . I knew this will happen , it serve the country well !

GEJ that caused all your woes is better than Buhar?i, Nigeria’s problem is electricity, fix it, production will kick in, the docile youths will get working, stupid mr stealing of public funds is not corruption sold the future of the youths to quacks for political gain, that is the kind of person you support? The scripture say they are third eye blind, for lack of knowledge my people perish.

Nwaide01:
Nigerians have never had it this bad.I think it's time we kneel down and beg for forgiveness to whomever we offended that brings this kind calamity upon us because this government is a curse,both the mighty and the lowly are crying.

Thank You to democrazy.

Burruchaga71:
. Don't mind the idiot...

What Section of the Federal CharacterPrinciple did he circumvent? A lot of kids just talk without going to study for themselves, follow Follow Zombies. He made a Northerner the head of agency, is the deputy also a Northerner?, that is circumventing the principle.

Xisnin:
Buhari is so powerless that he initiated RUGA.
He didn't wait for the assembly.

Ignorance again, RUGA is a presidential initiative not an act of parliament, The Lands Use Act, an act of Parliament has already made provisions for RUGA, you just have to go and read it properly.

muykem:
This is exactly my point that didn't go down well with many people here on nairaland. President power is also limited since all his actions must conform with constitution. The army of government that empowered to alter constitution is legislature. Buhari has no power to restructure or refuse to restructure Nigeria. The power rest on Nigeria people through their representatives at state and national assembly.

Leave them to keep fantasizing in their mental oblivion, President Buhari should restructure Nigeria? Ignorance kill Mumus, Adeboye & Co should know better.
