izzou: GloriousGbola:I didn't watch the guy's sobbing videos so I don't know what excuse he gave for failure to deliver on the project but from what I read in the Enugu state government's side of the story, it appears the guy never had intentions of delivering on the project in line with the contract terms. If the government advenced 50% for the project and upon provision of bank guarantee bond, sijumoto was expected to have achieved major milestone from the funds and at least have on ground equity work that can be assessed to encourage the government to release the balance payment. To me it juts seem as if the guy has been so used to doing shoddy jobs for government contracts and wasn't expecting the state government to operate strictly on the terms of the contract. He most likely had greased people's palms and was expecting them to give him pass so he can assess the outsnadibg balance while delivery a poor quality job. The audacity he has to have avoided all meetings with the the state's engineering monitoring team shows he has his trust on the old system of greasing palms and putting up a no-show. I like how the Enugu state government put a fire to his asss. Now he will have to reimburse them and he will be in serious debt for not doing the right thing and being arrogant while in the wrong. |
Roland17:I think the guy is not bad. If he can just focus on doing his job and not get caught up in the politics side if things like his predecessor he will certainly do well. |
Ibime:It's not just daily mail, other major news platform also ran the story and they posted screenshot of the man's will sef |
raumdeuter:One of my in-laws lost her first child few months after birth. A couple of years after she was blessed with another boy that stayed and then when she was in labour of another pregnancy , she had a complication that required them to take out her womb. She had to make peace with the fact that she won't be able to have more kids . She consented to them taking out her womb to save the baby girl. Today she has just those two kids. I'm sure some nosy distant relative who don't know her journey would be stupiidly teasing her and her hubby asking why they've not given their 8 year old daughter "aburo" |
raumdeuter: ![]() The man was a secret admirer. He said he likes Neymar and Identifies with him a lot. Seems the guy already had health issues when he had the Will drafted. Who knows if he had longer ,maybe he would've professed his love for Neymar to him in person. |
Theflint1:100% real. See copy of the man's will; the man write Neymar name in full ni sef, no room for any other person to come and claim it is their own "neymar" the man was referring to. ![]()
|
Ibime:So that's how Neymar will just become a billionaire in USD ? https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/36572646/billionaire-leaves-1bn-fortune-neymar-brazil/ |
Bimmarlykay:This particular woman, she's the second wife of her husband. The first wife had 3 kids before her demise , while she has just one. The fact that she has just one should suggest to you that she most likely couldn't have more kids due to medical reasons. I have been seeing people online trying to use the tragic loss of her son to make a point that is totally unnecessary at this point in time. When tragedy strikes, even 5 kids can die one single day in a road accident or air mishap. Life can happen to both the one-child parent and the multiple-child parent. |
semid4lyfe:It was obvious the whole thing was a racket. He's even trying to justify his actions by pointing at other countries' national carriers that have private sector being majority owners. The House of reps investigated the whole Nigeria Air project and labelled it a fraud but this man here is telling coccck and bull story . I don't blame him sha; if things were working in the right way in this country , the house of reps should have called for his arrest and immediate prosecution the moment they labelled the project fraud. The office of the attorney general should have ensured they fast track his trial to serve as example to others. But na naija we dey sha. |
Bimmarlykay:People holding this position over the woman's loss are being unfair. It is unfair not knowing her story yet making it seem like she elected to not have more than one child. From the ones I know, most people who have one or two kids do so due to medical reasons/fertility issues. People struggle with a whole lot of issues underground that they don't bring to social media. There are people that wish to have 4 to 5 kids but they don't even have 1 and yet medical tests keep showing they are fertile and medically fit. I just feel we should learn to be kind to others and not draw this type of insensitive inference from other people's pains. |
iamoyindamola:The man supposed hide his head in shame,instead he still dey go around TV stations giving yeye interview. |
iamoyindamola:Omo! Nigeria is a very anyhow country sha. Why is this criminal not in jail ? I mean this is someone that should be languishing in Kirikiri maximum prison or Kuje prison but here he is going to Channels TV to grant interview ![]() The thief even promised to write a book on his thievery . Chai! |
[quote author=Ellexy post=136685187]"The economy has stabilized, nobody is trading a piece of paper for an exchange rate anymore. When I took over, it was N1,900 to a dollar, It’s N1,450 now. It’s been stabilizing there, you don’t have to know Cardoso before you get your foreign exchange." - President Tinubu. Omo, Imagine the bold faced lies from this man is the godfather of propaganda, what do you expect? |
izzou:I remember one time like that I saw video of Iheanacho with Kogabgidi and he was drinking Heineken beer. I just shake my head wondering if he knows the implications of guzzling beer as an athlete who is expected to be fit to play football. |
Ibime:Of course, everyone knows investment in Lagos yields real returns and that's why Nigerians from different parts of the country have been trooping down to Lagos from time immemorial benefit from and contribute to the commercial viability of the state. All those super stories they sold during elections that one person single handedly built Lagos is premium CAP. |
liveLongNprospa: ![]() To think that what Sunday Dare posted is like the 3rd edit of the data that was originally posted on the presidency's page 3 days ago. The more they edit the thing the more people keep adding more controversial details/stat |
liveLongNprospa: |
izzou:Omo! We go dey alright las las for this country . |
liveLongNprospa:Omo! Abeg what's the source of this pie chart? |
izzou:He didn't even stop there, he has logged on to his Twitter account and still justified his position on the interview
|
izzou:They were trying to be clever by half in beating the Nepotism allegations from critics of the government. They however ended up making a mess of the whole thing. |
Bwala didn't say anything new, he only confirmed the age long fact that Lagos didn't become what it is today because of any phantom master strategist anywhere, rather it has benefited immensely from its status as the commercial nerve center of Nigeria. The state has been privileged to enjoy federal government's benevolence for decades under successful governments and he's making a case for the state to get more federal government's intervention under this current administration. That Lagos is ethnically Yoruba and located in the Southwestern part of Nigeria has never been in doubt. |
Segedinho:Na wa o |
Segedinho:With the removal of subsidy on CNG now , what happens next? Would u be converting back to PMS or u have to make do with the new CNG price ? |
Theflint1:Happening as predicted. |
Come January 2026 the new 5% tax on every liter of petrol product purchased will take effect. i.e if PMS sells for N860/liter as at December 2025, come January 2026 the same liter of PMS will cost 903. This will of course have multiplier effect on almost every commodity sold in the market and the people will have lesser disposable income at their disposal. The government in a bid to increase revenue will also be tasking FIRS to work closely with banks to ensure anybody who makes minimum of 800k gross income per annum will have their tax debited from source. It doesn't matter whether you are self employed or have a formal employer. Once it is confirmed your bank account receives minimum of 800k in a year, the bank will assist FIRS to collect the appropriate tax as per the new tax law. While people who want to defend this government may be putting forth argument that there's no big deal in this since most forward thinking countries rely heavily on taxes as source of government revenue/funding for government, we would also not forget to remind them that those forward thinking countries don't have the kind of rot we are witnessing under this government in this country. A forward thinking country would not have the presidency awarding a multi trillion contract like the coastal road without following due process. A forward thinking country would not have someone like betta Edu who transfered government funds into personal account walking freely today. A serious government would not overlook allegations against a sitting minister like Wike who is living at the expense of tax payers money while allocating lands to his friends, families and acquaintances unchecked. They simply want to widen the tax bracket and increase government revenue so they keep stealing from the masses so their political slaves and hallelujah boys keep singing their praise to high heavens for being "progressives" while the governed is thrown further below the poverty line. |
semid4lyfe:By the time u add dispatch cost to those online vendor's price it will be above bokku's price ( that is if the quality of rice tbey are offering is up to big bull which bokku is selling). Bokku rice is not expensive. I once compared their price with that of open market and theirs was cheaper. Yes I forgot to mention it on my post that Bokku's price has dropped albeit not as much that of Ur state of residence. About 7k to 8k price differential for 25kg and 50kg here in Lagos. |
semid4lyfe:I've checked the price of 25kg and 50kg bags of rice as promised. P.S : The price is from Bokku which is arguably the cheapest u can get compared to open market price/price from other stores.
|
Afz9095:So u had to do that here ? ![]() Na wa for u o. |
izzou:As in.... The whole thing no just understand person. |
raumdeuter:One guy is saying there's a user behind the post deletion and it's nit just the bot deleting posts. What I don't know is how true his claim is. Abi somebody has gained backdoor into nairaland server ni?
|
izzou:It makes no sense. People wey be thief , they can steal the most stupid things of this world Sha. |
