were you there?

Wizzz:
Very disgraceful I miss GEJ

Indeed you miss the GEJ that would have reported drunk and High on ogogoro to the event!!

Look at the pix well , the postulations made by the facebook user are wrong and mischievous.

I agree some BRT drivers are reckless...unfortunately a larger number of pedestrians are too dumb to walk the streets.

It takes two to tango

chessguru:
sensationalism indeed, did your friend just called it cheap publicity, some thing that could cost him a arm, he is in danger of not being able to use his hand for life, his bones was pushed out of his wrist separated from his flesh and you call that sensationalism or cheap....... I shall post a better picture of the hand that I took personally....

The question on my mind is ...would the Civil defence guys just beat him up without provocation ...he does not look like someone who has been battered ....could it be true that he jumped to evade arrest?

We cannot continue to hide under the legal system to blackmail people. I am giving both parties the benefit of doubt as someone among the two of them is obviously lying

freeman67:
Let's not say what we are not sure of. If you can avail your self of the NSCDC ACT, you will be more enlightened on their responsibilities.
A case between an ordinary citizens or non/learned citizens with law enforcement agents is always different from that of Barrister and law enforcement agents or agencies. If he was so sure it's not one of their responsibilities why didn't he tell them when he went to bail his client?

Why would he bail somebody he can't produce when needed.?

If it actually happened the way it was described I'm sure he won't just be looking for cheap publicity with the situation because he knows what to do as a lawyer. By now they'd have gotten a summon from a competent court.

No law enforcement agency dares a lawyer or law firm without being sure of their case because at the end of the day, they'll loose money.

Im proud that at least someone understands comprehension and thinks above sensationalism...thank you.

phemmie06:
I will suggest you should register for digi Fayose. The pomo slicer award winning governor. I only have one. And take a lot of fruit for brain refreshing purpose

Well done...the fruit is working small small.....

phemmie06:
I am not in ekiti but why can't you ask the workers if pomo slicer governor is not owing them. I asked before posting my comment if he paid them for December, my sister said yes but he paid a month salary, I asked why, how many months salary did you want him to pay she said he is owing more than a month. So who is free DATA worrying?

So you are trying to say you have two Usernames on Nland........well I never knew you had a bit of sense..You are not totally brainless

ideologies:
receive sense, what does the governor gat to do with their Christmas, was he also supposed to cook for them after paying salaries.

Young man, find another propaganda, Fayose is in total control of the state, forming a group a few gullible folks in the name of Enlightened workers is childish politics, no civil service rule even recognizes any labor group apart from NLC.

If the workers have anything, you will hear from NLC.

so good morning and Have a great day,

If you are not satisfied to to ikoyi, Tinubu should have leftovers from Christmas

Old Goat!...............Likely you failed comprehension in primary school before you dropped out!...confam! ...salary is what is paid to employees at the end of the month.

Receive a head and receive life!

For some times now, I have expressed displeasure over the tyranny of President Muhammadu Buhari, and his fragrant disobedience to court others.


Some have called me wailer, while some have called me IPOB for want of words. But in all, I cared less because I know who I am and what I stand for; and that is TRUTH!


While I was still busy walling, I never knew the shamelessness of this govt has gone international. I just walked into a nearby boutique close to my Estate, I was still searching for the items I came to buy, and suddenly my eyes went to the Tv set in that boutique.

Behold it was news hour, CCTVnews an International news media was actually reporting...


What was CCTV news reporting?

1* Nigerias 2016 budget is missing!

2* Nigerias Economic woes, as Naira crashes beyond recovery!


Shame! Shame! And shame! That was what was written all over my face as I left the boutique disappointed.
But not without taking some snap shots si the zombie worshippers will not call me a liar

Your post has very strong points on the state of the Economy and the embarrassment of the missing budget. I however disagree with your political under tone referring to a APC.

Nigeria's decline started from 1999 to 2014 when we had the Highest oil revenues that went down the drain. If during those 15 years the Party in power had built infrastructure and diversified the economy , we would not be in this state.

While I am not in agreement with PMB's focus of plugging theft at the expense of allowing the economy to run, I think it is too early to say his government is on or off track......by June this year we can safely say yea or nay.

On the Court orders, this has been explained many times that the people in question were rearrested for different charges. I support keeping those satanist who are ready to shed my blood and yours to make money. These are the people that we should be ashamed of....people were being killed and villages were being decimated while they were making loads of money and having a ball...this is called blood money!

my thoughts

......Good one!

Four less problems for us in Lagos.

I want the Jungle justice to be fine tuned to affect only robbers caught in the act.......A colleague was brutally raped and robbed in the presence of her husband and kids just three weeks ago!

Absolutely no mercy for them....Until the state can provide security or allow every one to provide alternative security.

MY Opinion

xtrorx:
Since you're so clueless you've resorted to firing blank with senselessness this new dawn.
Sorry, simply submit your brain for medical examination asap before you find yourself in the market square dancing naked to makossa.

Dumbo....read the below from Linda Ikeji's Blog..bottom line the traders know and are happy ...you busy crying over your sorry life Dawg!!

Igbo's and Yoruba's are cool......fifth columnists like you can go such an AK 47!

Oshodi Demolition: Lagos State Govt denies destruction of goods, says New Ultra-Modern Market given for N5,000 monthly

The Lagos State Government on Thursday, January 7, defended the relocation of traders plying their trade in Owonifari Market within the notorious loop of Oshodi to the newly built ultra-modern Isopakodowo Market in Bolade-Oshodi, saying the action was taken in the overall interest of public good, safety and security.

Speaking during a joint press briefing addressed by the State’s Ministries of Information and Strategy, The Environment, Physical Planning and Urban Development, Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, and the Office of Civic Engagement, the Government said it constructed an alternative market stall for the traders which can conveniently accommodate over 600 shops and hundreds of kee Clamps, and agreed to subsidize payment by giving shops at the new market at a monthly give away price of N5, 000.
Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Steve Ayorinde said the traders were adequately notified before the exercise took place as required by law, and that government engaged with the leadership of the market severally before carrying out the demolition exercise on Owonifari Market.

While clarifying issues on the demolition which took place on January 5, 2016, Ayorinde said it was important for people to note that the issue of the market had been on for nothing less than ten years, adding that government had been engaging the leadership of the market to make them realize that it could no longer continue in the manner in which the market was being used.
He said unfortunately, the leadership of the market, in the last three years, refused to move despite the fact that the new market has over 600 shops apart from the kee clamps which takes the number of people that the market could conveniently accommodate to over a thousand all together.

Ayorinde said having been satisfied that government had provided a befitting alternative, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode through the Commissioner for Local Government and Community Affairs, invited the leadership of the market to the Executive Chambers and met with them on December 16, 2015, where he reiterated his plans for Oshodi and the need to move the traders to Isopakodowo which as at that time had been ready for a couple of years.
"A few of them expressed certain misgivings but largely they felt that if their interest would be accommodated within the Isopakodowo Market, that they were willing and ready to move and on our part, we said that the discussion should be ongoing particularly regarding how much they would pay for each store within that market," the Commissioner said.
"After that, on Monday December 21, 2015, Governor Ambode went on a tour of that market area particularly at Isopakodowo in company with a few members of the Exco. Again, we met with the leadership of the market where it was eventually agreed based on the proposition by the leadership that what they were willing to pay for each shop at Isopakodowo was N5, 000.
"There is nowhere in Lagos where you will agree to be paying N5, 000 per shop not to talk of the central Oshodi, but the Governor agreed with them and we said we were ready to concede after which we now formally served them with a quit notice through the office of the Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development," he said.
Speaking further, Ayorinde denied allegation that many goods of the traders were destroyed in the demolition exercise, adding that such was far from the truth.
"The intention of government certainly was not to destroy any goods and we did not destroy any goods because we believe that a good number of the traders, if not all, had moved because they were aware that they needed to move.
"Government, I should say, will not be blackmailed because we had done everything humanly possible and you know that the hallmark of this government has been compassion. It is a compassionate government.
"The intention was not to destroy the market or destroy properties or to make life inconvenient for them. We believe very strongly that Isopakodowo market is quite ideal; its a lot bigger store-per-store than where they had been removed now and the aim of government, as we stated earlier, is to ensure that that area of the market conforms with the type of image that we want Lagos to be, which is to return sanity to the place, to beautify the market, to construct a world class bus terminus around that place and to ensure that people who use that place on a daily basis – the commuters, traders, everybody enjoy what it means to go to a market in a mega city.
"We also believe that the exercise will largely reduce the gridlock that is associated with that area and then the criminalities that were rampant in that Oshodi. What we have done is in the interest of the generality of Lagosians,” Ayorinde said.
"You will see from the reports that quite a good chunk of the traders acknowledged that they had been properly served and that they were ready to move which was why a good number of them, if not all, parked their things just before the end of last year.
"Along the line, we got intelligence report that during the holidays there were a number of criminal activities going on in the market and that the place was harbouring criminals and a number of untoward activities which of course necessitated the need to move immediately to safeguard lives, to safeguard properties and to ensure that there was no breach of peace which was what led to the demolition."

I can see that as a daft slowpoke you rarely understand written English, but since you have a dirty stomach in place of a workable brain you can only but spew putrifying thrash.

And as a scratched face ritual-escapee you have most likely never stepped out of your juju-infested zone but feed fat on the generational hatred and jealousy passed on to you by your ancestors. FYI, I can afford to feed your generation.

Watch it...as you fall a ritual victim of your wicked kinsmen in Soka Evil Forest, where your body parts shall be freely traded.

LOL...you watch Africa magic too much and it has messed up your grey matter!!!

xtrorx:
You shall continue to whine, weep, wail, yell, curse and gnash your teeth at Igbos progress.

And as you have declared so shall you end up as a ritual victim by your wicked kinsmen in Soka Evil Forest, where your blood shall be freely traded.

LOl...I knew you had no capacity for intellectual discuss because you half wit is only to claim victim.

Your mates are doing great in Lagos , you are busy wallowing in poverty being sorry for yourself.....

What have you done for your own people? ......ofcourse you brain is sitting at Okija shrile already......

xtrorx:
Good! As you have agreed so shall it be!

Amen and unto you and your family!

Lagos cannot solve your problems....face it... face your state!

xtrorx:
I can see that your delusion and hypocrisy has no cure yet.

Since you see no wrong in Lagos government demolishing the shops of traders at such poor communication and notification and not even allowing them to carry their goods, can we conclude that as LASG has done to the Igbo traders in Oshodi so shall be your portion this 2016?

................and yes cry till you cry a river...Lagos is moving forward.....We think progress and want to move to the next level in lagos,......stay outside Lagos and die of bad blood..serious beef.

Lagos is NOT for everybody some have to go back!

Thank you...some people assume we are still in the days of weak, ineffective and corrupt leadership. Treason is not a tea party who ever is ready to stand against a Nation must be bold and strong enough to bear the consequences.

This secret execution story and killion of Ibo SSS personnel is what i call Kai Kai joint talk!!!

Spare me your irrelevant talk of mischievousness.
If you had a sensible government this is the most honourable path of peace they should have towed:

I see you are trying new words you saw on DSTV with your "Irrelevant talk of Mischievousness" ..Make no sense!

These people were notified and the market was even closed before the demolition. If they go on TV when they can tell them directly my people will shout waste of public funds which is true.


Who allocated the land to them in the first place? If somebody trespasses on your land will you pay for another plot for his to leave your land We all sit behind the computer and dream the Ideal world. If you are governor is this how you will squander and mismanage resources of the state

CFCman:
Or the govt could sell it off completely.

Im telling you ...that probably would have been the best thing but they can't because of Security, Strategic importance, diplomacy etc etc!

Quite shameful we have people and resources but we cant just pull it together to work in our favour

In Lagos under 'One Nigeria' there seem to exist a silent economic war of destruction of livelihood, burning of markets in the middle of the night, extortion and harassment of genuine businesses by official area boys and street urchins, illegal/multiple taxing of business owners, in markets where Igbos operate e.g. Tejuoso, Alaba International and Ladipo. And now Oshodi electrical & electronic market.

Many of these attracious deeds are conducted at odd times when the traders won't be available to resist the dastardly acts.

Over the decades in the South-West, the Yorubas have systematically burnt Igbo shops as a guise to hijacking the markets from Igbos.

https://www.nairaland.com/2618835/hoodlums-shut-down-alaba-international

Prior to the 2015 general elections, amidst the threat by the lagoon crooner to drown Igbos, 18 Chisco transport buses were criminally burnt down in Lagos and up till date nothing was done to bring the culprits to book.

What does 'One Nigeria' mean?
A deceit where you are empowered to share my crude oil and wealth as 'One Nigeria' while I am considered a migrant to your State whom you're just merely accommodating and may perish in the lagoon at your command.

It is a chaotic situation where the Oba of a place would invite the representative of a people for discussion in his palace as regards a market leadership dispute only to set an ambush for him and unleash hundreds of thugs to flog and disgrace him.

It is an unjust situation where you're licensed to use foul means to destroy my business in your State with outrageous taxes. You can close my business premises at will while your elites continue to shout 'One Nigeria' to cover up the evils and injustices prevalent in the land. And you still expect me to be docile and continue to suffer silently as your hate and envy for my progress soar high.

Now, do you have any case for unity - fake or imaginary?

If you have there would be no need fooling and playing to the gallery and shouting 'One Nigeria'. Or have you ever heard 'One Great Britain', 'One United States of America', 'One Germany'?
That shows that something is fundamentally wrong which many have been shying away from.

Is it a crime for any person/group to choose to opt out of a relationship?

Strange bedfellows, with irreconcilable value systems that are at best suitable for the individual selves, are not meant to be together! The 102 years of existence attest to that verdict!

Victor Hugo once said "no army can stop an idea whose time has come" and that "one can resist the invasion of armies but not the invasion of ideas".

Pardon me Dude, I usually don't comment on tribalistic matters but i find this irresistible.

I will be surprised if you live in Lagos !. I marvel and wonder how people like you are able to remain so mono focused and myopic in thinking. In all this are you saying the Ibo Brothers are the only ones affected by this demolition? and have you been to Oshodi or better still robbed at Oshodi? Do you know how thieves , smokers and lowlifers hide in these shanties to perpetuate evil?

Are you aware the current governor was trying to be a people of the masses by reversing the urbanisation policies of the previous administration and he also lost grip of the state? Are you aware that as Africans the only language we understand is enforcement? No serious government will allow chaos and slums to thrive in urban areas?

I will like to know your comments on the demolition of

1. Ketu Fruit market
2. Mile 12 market
3. Oja Oba Ikorodu
4. Egbeda market

You see, tribalism is one of the monsters killing this country and I wonder how people are so wired to only see things from the tribal point of view. When thieves run out of these Oshodi market , rob and return , do they ask the victims if they are yoruba ibo or hausa or south south before they rob?

If you were the governor what would you do?...allow the slums to continue to deface the environment and also harbour miscreants?

For those of us with the Lagos spirit...we don't care your tribe but we respect constituted authority and we also know that some people are owners of the land.

Pleeease spare me!

The solution is for Government to sell a 40% stake to a company that can maintain the airports. They should have a independent board and I assure you , they will turn around the airport with half the cost of running it today. They will cut out govt inefficiency and waste ..this is the problem facing the airports and most Government facilities.

this is why i hate bail..........if and only if this thief was still at Kuje Prisons!!!!

Olamide had a good point but acted immaturely under the influence of whatever he has ingested. He is known to be more discreet.

Don Jazzy I blame seriously for not ignoring Olamide, Don Jazzy should know better than to argue with a young boy whose head is filled with fame! especially under the influence of whatever!

Don J you for stay for your position of respect o, the whole world would have forced Olamide to come and prostrate before you......you should have JEGAED Olamide!

Hmm ..I feel its ok for any man to hold any religious beliefs he or she chooses to hold but like the story of the good Samaritan; most religious folks always forget they are the salt of the earth and they are so spiritual that they for get about the needs and sensibilities of their neighbours..

The money sunk into that project will have brought smiles to the faces of hundreds if not thousands around him by providing basic needs of life. Some food some education some clothing , some health etc etc.

The essence of western religion today is only to edify self and not others..a big shame leaders in the religious homes flaunt a great deal of wealth and the members are wallowing in lack and poverty...yet tithe must not miss....I blame bling followers

To the people in his locality it will not move them closer to God neither will it improve tourism potentials with the state of infrastructure and security.....

My people I hail una o!!!

Please correct the Topic of your post.

The motorcycle rider obviousky did not value his life and does not have the common sense to follow basic safety rules! Wear a gaddamn helmet, his life could have been saved if he had a helmet since he died from head trauma! Most Nigerians do behave like animals, very stubborn and unruly people! Like freaking apes!!!!

I believe you , I think the guy simply committed suicide. He should have just killed himself with Medication to save everyone the gory sight!

Danfos and Okadas are murderers hence this is a case of like meet like!...Keke riders are the generation-next lunatics on the roads.

I only feel for his family , his stupidity has denied them of a certain quality of life
