CommonSense1967: If you borrow money to build capital projects, that's perfectly ok.
Do you know that Nigeria was borrowing money to pay salaries towards the end of the Jonathan administration? Borrowing to pay salaries? Yes, they did. The finance minister at that time said clearly.
There is no logic in your argument. I live in the US and I can tell you that the US govt is the highest debtor on the face of the planet, I used to work for the US federal govt. They will always borrow money to build capital projects because they know that those capital projects such as roads, schools, and the like will bring more development and create an enabling business environment for businesses to thrive. When businesses thrive, the govt will get more taxes from those businesses, and employed people will also pay taxes. That's how you develop. Nigeria has thousands of coastal lines that are wasting away right now. How many people do you know that are even thinking of investing along the coastline in other states besides Lagos? I don't know a single person. With this road, many other areas will become economically viable not just Lagos, people will build hotels and other businesses along the coast in Ondo, Edo, Delta, Ogun, rivers, and others. This is what you call out-of-the-box innovative thinking. Individuals borrow money to start businesses all over the world, govt also borrow money to build capital projects not to pay salaries.
The vast majority of those against this project are from the SE, so don't try to blame others for what is very obvious. It also begs the obvious question - why didn't they bring up such objections when Buhari was building the 2nd Niger bridge? Was Nigeria not broke, was Nigeria not borrowing money, didn't we have many other roads in Nigeria that needed attention at that time? To make it worse, the leader of these blind hypocrites is Obi. Now, this is a man who invested 30 MILLION DOLLARS into HERO BEER in Anambra while the state was facing many crucial issues such as erosion, bad roads, bad schools, doctors on strike for 13 months, and many more issues, yet he thought it was ok to invest that kind of money into a brewery.
On a very serious note why on earth should Nigeria government borrow money to pay salaries because to me this is mind boggling.
First of all we have allowed Vagabonds,people with questionable characters,infantile & low grade mind people occupied the corridor of government 🤔
The cost of governance is just too alarming you know,why should government be spending billions of naira on luxury vehicles for its official saying to us its due to bad roads.
I am not against capital projects but 🇳🇬 is a country of no accountability at all of which government keep filtering away our money.
United States of America 🇺🇸 has steady electricity,good road network,mechanised farming,good security etc but reverse is the case of Nigeria.
But we have been feeding ourselves before now,we had food abundantly left right & centre & lot of families were eating more than 3 square meal but not anymore.
Government should Provide steady electricity,security,qualitative health care system,premium education,good roads, good justice system etc.
When all of this above mentioned is available & of which 🇳🇬 have the resources to make the citizenry life meaningful.
VIKTO83: The best way to punish them and make others run away from such crime is to share their pictures and names. Even share their NIN, international passport numbers. In fact home address. In fact their parents address and names too. In fact their village
Excellent!!!!!
You deserve 30 billion naira for the solution that you have just suggested.
babajero: Ladies should be more productive and stop following every guy that promises them things, most especially these so called hook up babes that don't want to be called ash'awo but do worst than ash'awo
This is a case of some dangerous gang roaming left right and centre raping their fellow men & not ladies incase you missed it.
Stay away from bad behaviour he or she wouldn't listen!!!!! Just because some people are misbehaving & not dealt with doesn't guarantee he or she will get away with anything.
Know the country that you live in to avoid story that touches the heart.
BigDawsNet: We could have installed the largest solar panel in africa inside these states... that will generate atleast half of northern states electricity...
But Nigerians gov will not think abt that one...
Bro you have just spoken mind & you deserve a gift !!!!!
Meet at lekki phase 1 Gate by 5pm to collect 10 billion Liberian dollars.
AustineE1: This country is a huge joke,always avoiding the main problems needed to be solved but rather going after artificial issues...we already have the BVN,NIN,PVC,drivers license and including international passport.What is really wrong with our leaders,at every slightest opportunity they want to cashout by duplicating projects and subjecting the masses to another round of torture,by going queue to for this arrant nonsense.
We keep recycling vagabonds,low grade mind & infantile persons in the corridor of government 🤔
It's mind boggling the way & manner that we behave in this part of the 🌎
ladobo79: It is quite a shame when people like you do not understand the body of a post before spewing whatever come out of the gutter you call a mouth.. This man has done more for his constituency than any honorable member i know of.. Providing transformers, and electrifying communities.. Try and find facts before allowing your bigotry take over your common sense.
Excuse me Mr low grade mind!!!!!
So the man did well by distributing grinding machines & generator 🤔
The man his simply Causing more noise pollution & also disturbing the environment you know.
In other clime there's steady electricity & the people are treated with respect.
