This is awesome and a good step in the right direction of building a truly cosmopolitan city.

My grouse however, is the usual lack of maintenance culture which has continually remained our achilles heel.

I wished the citizens could be sensitized and orientated on handling and caring for public infrastructures.
"Sensitization" won't happen in a vacuum.

If the rest of your life/environment is suboptimal, it's hard to single out one place and treat it like some Holy of Holies.

If you go back long enough, New York, London and Paris were dumps, with tons of "irresponsible" citizens.

Over time, with more economic development, certain things will correct.

vicdom:
cry
Emir Sanusi's own came today! I feel no sympathy for him whatsoever. The politics that gave him the crown deemed it fit to humiliate him by using some individuals with kolanut and tobacco stained teeths to water down his powers.

An 800 year old emirate has been balkanized just to get at one man. They don't care what is destroyed as long as they achieve their evil and vindictive objectives. In their world, no tradition is too sacred and no action is too unbecoming. Anything is possible...

The bill was presented on Monday, passed on Tuesday and signed into law on Wednesday. When it comes to settling petty scores and witchunting perceived enemies, the APC deploys supersonic speed and alacrity. They can exhume a decaying corpse just to get at someone.

I have never seen a congregation of people so deeply in love with wickedness, division and hate. Even amongst them in the party, there is no love lost. They never congregate to plan good, only evil.

I said it before and I am saying it again, the APC is too vindictive and intolerant to unite this country. They enjoy divisions, strife and conflicts.

Rochas Okorocha should get ready, while Saraki should prepare for round2. Meanwhile, I heard they sent an emissary to Lagos to tell them how to end godfatherism. We all know who that message was meant for.

When APC is done with their agenda, we shall all wear the wailing garment together...

800 years ke?

maestroferddi:
All these turanci you are writing here do not add up.

Don't tell me you are this naive or uncircumspect....

Achebe never had the Nobel for Literature conferred on him for one main reason: His acclaimed stance against the white establishment in their attempt to depict black Africa as an inferior race. He was renowned for challenging long-held views that African literature is not pristine and that African writers had little literary merit.

Achebe dared the supremacists. He hinted severally that he didn't need the prize to underline his standing as one of the best men of letters of all time.

In. terms of depth, technical and cultural significance, reach and universality, Soyinka knows there was no time he could have held a candle to Achebe.

Where are Soyinka's Things Fall Apart, No Longer At Ease and Arrows of God?

How many Nigerians have heard of Jero Plays, Kongi Harvest and The King's Horseman (hope I got that title correctly)?

Achebe is undisputably one of the greatest literary minds ever to come out of Africa.

You don't have your magnus opus translated to over five dozen languages for nothing....resa ipso loquitor...
Going by your stated standards, that Harry Potter woman for dey collect am back-to-back.

In the end, Soyinka spoke so many words and ended up saying nothing in response to the issues raised.

Such an evasive character is not worthy of even the readers digest author of the week award.
Just tell us you didn't understand what he said.

The height of your writing are probably NL posts, yet you get mind to critique Soyinka, a double-chairman.

You no get respect.

My fear is that the chairman themselves are another class of corrupt individuals. We are most likely going to start witnessing them building palaces in Abuja in an even this succeeds. Nevertheless, it is our hope they apply the funds specifically to what they are meant for.

Just a little project here and there is what Nigerians are asking for. We are the least demanding citizens in this world if you ask me but our politicians are just too lazy and corrupt the meet even the tiniest of demands.

So unfortunate.
Yes, but they can't hide behind immunity.

The mandatory money trail part also makes it easy to trace transactions.

If they'll enforce it, it'll be a big win for Nigeria.

Retreat center in another person's land? Moreover what was OUK position before 1999 to have attracted a retreat center in his home town of Igbere?
I am an Ebiri son, and I haven't heard this version of the story from anybody, even his enemies and accusers.
He didn't "attract" a retreat centre.

Igbere is part of Abia State, the government can situate stuff anywhere within the state.

Retreat centre, built on government land...

OUK,, built his house before May 1999. He was already made be becoming governor.
Though he later embezzled the state treasury dry.
Unfortunately he didn't build it at all.

That property was a retreat center built by the state government, under the military administrator Col. Anthony Obi – hence the 400 rooms.

But somehow, it now belongs to OUK.

Do the maths.

Dominiccash360:
hi if you want to learn a thing or two read this

Innovation (improving) in this context is related to the religion (Islam) and not any other sector of life, Islam is an already prefect finished religion such that when you try to improve it with your own human knowledge you will actually be unconsciously spoiling it as the innovations that you bring to suit this certain generation today might become a treat/problem to other generations to come we already have such innovations causing fragmentation and extremism in the religion and part of this is as a result of some innovations made by the preceding generation in the school of thought of improving the religion to fit certain things...

I might not dwell more on this to avoid unnecessary debate

#learn and move on but u can ask reasonable question if u must
I believe Islam does need "innovation" then.

The Bible has tons of extremist content in the Old Testament. However Christians mostly ignore those because of the New Testament.

Perhaps some sort of "reformation" that de-emphasises the sections and passages that compel certain people towards violent, extremist expressions will do the world a lot of good.

I hope you are not one of them hiding under another monicker. We are not smilling with curses now ooo.
For some amusing reason, you seem to believe you have a monopoly on curses — empty words with no efficacy.

How many wayward politicians and serpent-tongued pastors have cursed?

What was the effect?

If Jesus returns — if he's a real person — he'll be shocked at what you guys do in his name.

Hope you known Jesus rebuked peter. Hope you know Jesus got angry picked a cane and chased people out of the temple while trading inside. The more they post that nonsense the more we will keep cursing them. There are websites that permit what they are posting they should go there. The wages of sin is death.
I'm sure this quote from you is the equivalent of a rebuke.

Can you picture Jesus saying this:

"FROM TODAY YOUR LIFE WILL NEVER MAKE MEANING AGAIN ON THIS PLANET. YOU WILL ALWAYS BEG TO EAT EVERYDAY"

Or rather: "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do".

Let me tell you a story you can read it up. In a state in the US, two plots of land was acquired and same vegetables planted on each. About 50 people were employed and divided into two. 25 will go to plot A and be saying goof words to those vegetables and blessing it. 25 will go to plot B and be cursing it using abusive words. Under two months, about 95% of the vegetables went dry in plot B. They just did the research to prove that words are powerful and very effective irrespective of who is speaking those words.

Why i wrote these words is to tell you that from today, the moment you post anything that has to do with this scam, we will always collectively curse you on this forum and keep cursing you till your life becomes miserable and you cant afford even 100 naira airtime for data. Mark my words. Fellow nairalanders, let us start cursing all these nuisance.

FROM TODAY YOUR LIFE WILL NEVER MAKE MEANING AGAIN ON THIS PLANET. YOU WILL ALWAYS BEG TO EAT EVERYDAY
Would Jesus curse him too?

Why not bless and pray for him

PoliticsRe: #SayHerNameNigeria: Protest Rocks Abuja, Lagos Over Police Raid On Women (pics) by BuddhaPalm(m):
lilwetdick:
feminists and support of evil. what they forgot to tell us that a stripe club was raided and stripe clubs is illegal in Nigeria

so a strip club was raided by the police then feminists came out to protest

we shouldn't forget that those clubs exploit women and make them mere sexual objects

confuse people

we should not forget both men and women were arrested during the raid, i never saw men crying victimization
But this is how society progresses...

Something being law doesn't make it right.

Segregation was once law in US.

In ancient Mesopotamia (Babylon), under the Hammurabi code, if you killed someone's daughter, the penalty was to have your own daughter killed.

Wetin your daughter do?

And if someone accuses you of something like witchcraft, you could face a "trial by ordeal". The ordeal could be throwing you in a river, and if you don't drown then you are declared innocent.

If you drowned, your accuser inherits your possessions (the other way around if you didn't).

If you are a rational and fair-minded person, then these two examples will sound ridiculous.

And you'll agree that something being law doesn't make it fair.

In the US, and parts of Europe I believe, it was once perfectly legal to challenge people to gun duels if they maligned you (cowboy style shoot-outs). Now those are no longer permitted.

In conclusion, if adults, who are not under duress, choose to dance naked on a pole, in a private setting, then it shouldn't concern the State at all.
