obailala: There's not a chance in the world that they would pay for such a trip to the UK without first testing the compatibility of the boy's kidney first in Nigeria.
Any hospital can mess things up, Nigeria or overseas. This wouldnt be the first time we would hear of a test being positive the first time and showing negative on second check. Even after all prior tests may have confirmed compatibility, the recipient's body may still reject an organ. These things arent 100% efficient.
Where you there? This is from the charges filed:
“After conducting various medical tests, the Royal Free Hospital in London decided that the said David Nwamini Ukpo was not a suitable donor because his kidney is not compatible with that of Sonia Ekweremadu"
We can see Ahmed Musa sharing to cash to a few people. The FG under buhari said it given out $322million to more than 1m poor people in Nigeria. Where are the videos and pics of such people
obailala: And who told you they hadnt tested the compatibility in a Nigerian hospital before proceeding to the UK?
“After conducting various medical tests, the Royal Free Hospital in London decided that the said David Nwamini Ukpo was not a suitable donor because his kidney is not compatible with that of Sonia Ekweremadu"
obailala: I dont think there's any law in Nigeria against paying for organ donation. I doubt the senator can be convicted in the UK for an action which happened in Nigeria and which doesnt break any Nigerian laws.
The only crime of the senator is claiming to have gotten consent from an alleged minor. If it's proven by any means (be it scientific or through documentation) that the boy isnt a minor, that's the end of the case. Even if it's proven that the boy is a minor, the senator with a good defense team can easily free himself by claiming he didnt know the boy was a minor; afterall all his documents proved he was 21
So where would they have harvested the kidney and under what circumstances would the donor be giving out his kidney?
Can anyone pls explain how ekwerenmadu was able to get access to this boys account details?
Also how did ekwerenmadu obtain this boys BVN? Is BVN not supposed to be private? What legal process did he follow to obtain the BVN? Is David's right to privacy not being infringed upon?
Idiotseverywher: . But the guy agreed to donate his own, was he forced to. I'd he tgr first person to ever agreed to do do? Why atr you people being so sentiment, pray that God never punish human beings because of our behavior and wickedness
Why didn't any of the children of ekwerenmadu volunteer to help their sister?
So the David guy just agreed to "donate" his kidney ekwerenmadus daughter for free? Just like that? On what grounds? Pls explain
Annie001: Na this mind mentality make una get kids roaming round the street rendering themselves useless and useful for skull miners. Nobody should be made to have babies they don't want to have. They end of becoming a menace to the society. And please don't preach to me about condoms because condoms have failed numerous times
Has abstinence failed or has it been outlawed?
Are condoms the only birth control methods in existence?
babaolofin: EKO Atlantic represents the struggle, resilience and the courage of Tinubu. Tinubu out of courage and determination supported by Divine Providence turned misfortunes and challenges to opportunities. If not for Tinubu, left to Obasanjo who called Lagos a jungle, only suitable for insane people to live, VI and Lekki would have gone, Lagos would have been in the dustbin of history.
Private Investors in the Atlantic City projects came because of the opportunities. We now have beautiful new Ahmadu Bello way and various development. Whether it is at 5% or 2%, the value is appreciating, businesses that left during the Ocean encroachment are back in many folds. VI and Lekki that were already dying and at the point of death suddenly become a beehives of activities. Tinubu is an enigma.
In everything you said, you weren't able to negate this post by americaninja1 that
Eko Atlantic is a private project, and d project is projected to be completed before 2022 but hasn’t even reached 20% completion because of the overpriced sale of land and properties there. Do u know that land sells at 2-4million dollar there. Go check out prices of luxury houses in USA with that same amount. Rather buy there than buy in Eko Atlantic
colestephan86: Bollocks Which state first created LCDAs Which state first started IPP, which state had it before Lagos?
Let's agree with you on this first thing. How is doing it first an achievement? If it is, can you explain how the LCDAs have improved quality of life in Lagos.
Where are IPPs that Tinubu was the first to start? How many MW are they supplying and to whom?
murmee: I hope and pray that Tinubu will bring Kemi Adeosun back as the finance minister. She was chased away because she was so good and uncompromising!
Who chased kemi adeosun away because she was good and uncompromising?
IbileIfe: On his assumption of office as Governor of Lagos State in 1999, Asiwaju Tinubu inherited a state that was practically bankrupt. The country’s commercial nerve centre was one of the worst victims of the previous one and a half decades of military dictatorship and neglect.
Public infrastructure had disintegrated abysmally. Delivery of social services had collapsed in virtually all sectors. The environment was in chaos as Lagos was routinely described as one of the dirtiest cities in the world. The state was largely dependent on insufficient financial allocations from the centre as she lacked the capacity to generate adequate revenue internally to meet her numerous challenges.
The public sector was demoralized and ill-equipped, psychologically and logistically, to effectively perform its functions and achieve set objectives. While the citizenry was alienated from the state and thus demotivated from paying taxes or the ones they paid being stolen making the state technically bankrupt, the organized private sector had little or no incentive to partner with the government in meeting the immense developmental challenges of the Mega City. Assembling a team of accomplished technocrats, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Administration drew up a Ten-Point Agenda, which it began to systematically implement for the re-vitalization and re-invention of the state. The total budget size of Lagos State at the inception of the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Administration in 1999 was a little over N14 billion, while the state’s Internally Generated Revenue was approximately N600 million monthly. Yet, the monthly public sector wage bill was N800 million. The implication was that Lagos state was entirely dependent on allocation from the Federal Government, which was grossly insufficient to meet the huge challenges of re-building a state that had been neglected and allowed to decay for over two decades since the federal capital was moved to Abuja in 1991.
Eight years later under Asiwaju’s astute guidance, Lagos had become financially viable and autonomous of the federal government; lives and property had become more secure; public infrastructure was being aggressively modernized and expanded; there had been a dramatic improvement in the quality and efficiency of public health care, education, the environment, water supply and public transportation; Lagos was attracting new investment in diverse sectors on a daily basis despite the depressing national economic climate.
It seems you didn't understand the questions.
What are the legacies he left in Lagos? What are his feats in governance that no politician in this generation has achieved?
From all you typed, you weren't able to answer the questions. Your post is most likely something you lifted from somewhere and pasted verbatim. so many words yet no substance. So many words, but they are quite vague and ambiguous. No specifics I am not surprised that your posts is populated with awards and quotes. How those answer the questions is still a mystery. I will remove the quotes and awards & you will see that there's nothing left.
Let's look at the things you have said
1. How was Lagos state practically bankrupt before may 1999? Can you explain a bit more?
2. How was Lagos one of the worst victims of the previous one and a half decades of military dictatorship and neglect?
3. Kindly explain this in more detail:
"Public infrastructure had disintegrated abysmally. Delivery of social services had collapsed in virtually all sectors."
4. You say before Tinubu became governor, you say that "The environment was in chaos as Lagos was routinely described as one of the dirtiest cities in the world". Recently, Lagos was reputed to be the second worst city in the world to live in.
5. How did Lagos state "lacked the capacity to generate adequate revenue internally to meet her numerous challenges"? What were those numerous challenges?
6. How was "The public sector was demoralized and ill-equipped, psychologically and logistically, to effectively perform its functions and achieve set objectives"?
What were those set objectives?
7. How did you arrive at the conclusion that "the citizenry was alienated from the state"?
8. If you say that taxes being paid before 1999 were being stolen, can you give us a brief on alpha beta?
9. Who are the team of technocrats you say Tinubu assembled and what is the Ten-Point Agenda that they drew up?
10. What are the public infrastructure was being aggressively modernized and expanded during Tinubus governance?
11. If you say that "there has been a dramatic improvement in the quality and efficiency of public health care", can Tinubu take treatment in any hospital in Lagos?
12. Can Tinubus children attend any government school in Lagos?
13. Does Lagos supply water to it's residents or it's residents depend on self provided bore holes?
14. What are the new investment Lagos was attracting in diverse sectors on a daily basis when Tinubu was governor?
Once again, What are the legacies he left in Lagos? What are his feats in governance that no politician in this generation has achieved?
emperor863: Illegal LCDAs you call them, have many states - possibly including yours - not copied the same thing?
The Bohemian OBJ withheld local government funds illegally (despite the judgement of Supreme court against it) and he ad able to run the 20 LGAs and 37 LCDAs effectively. If it were to be your state, would your thieving governor been able to pull through?
If you claim that Honey is a bitter substance out of hatred for it, it does not mean that it is actually bitter. Oga na master any day, any time.
How did Tinubu "run the 20 LGAs and 37 LCDAs EFFECTIVELY"?

It's all part of the campaign to hype out of proportion anything Tinubu did. It's the same strategy they used with buhari in 2015. I am glad folks like you have the facts to burst their obvious lies
stainedanisus1: Asiwaju of Nigeria . This is almost the 1000th thread opened about him on Nairaland this year alone. The brain behind Eko Atlantic, an investment destination that will be the envy of Africa when completed. An area holding the biggest USA embassy in the world. Why will I not like this man
"...that will be...". Future tense
How is having the biggest US embassy in the world an achievement? Will that reduce unemployment or inflation?
Realist12: it's the same game they are playing with Lagos , trying to discredit all the legacies he left in Lagos. Yet no politician in this generation has achieved his feats in governance. Not even the former vice president running for president.
What are the legacies he left in Lagos?
What are his feats in governance that no politician in this generation has achieved?
Maverick777: funny guy... Typical Nigerian, always vexing unprovoked! Bro everywhere in the world, film-makers abound and they'd definitely be good and terrible ones I've watched many shitty senseless foreign movies back in the day. Don't seclude it to only Nigeria. I could've flared up from your first utterance, 'una wey dey watch naija movies dey try', but I didn't. You should understand that everyone has a preference, your deepest hate is someone go-to delight. life is diverse. know this, know peace.
Can you identify the vex that you are referring and explain how it is a Nigerian thing?
If you want to flare up, feel free. Did I hold you or did you do me a favour by not flaring up?
Maverick777: okay, let me set you a trap, please answer wisely. why don't you watch Naija movies?
Which trap are you setting? You will set trap and end up ensnaring yourself by the trap. In my responses to you, you will find all the answers you want. You can use your trap to catch whatever you want there
seunmsg: One thing calabar people can take to the bank is that Tinubu will do as promised. This project is as good as done once Tinubu becomes the president.
Was it not the same Tinubu that promised that buhari will turn nigeria into eldorado. Up till now, nothing to show
27Pushing30: Lekki deep sea port with accompanying FTZE is close to completion... the whole Ibeju Lekki is opening up... ALMOST all companies are opening offices there.... tank farms are springing up
Badagry sea port with accompanying FTZE is being discussed
but you're there scoring own goal.
Lekki deep sea port and LFTZ are close to completion? When did the work commence? What percentage complete are they and when will they be completed?
His legacies in Lagos are still there for everyone to see. Even pandora hoebi has to leave his Anambra to come enjoy Tinubu's legacies in Lagos.
I agree with his speech, the great work he did in Lagos will be extended to other parts of Nigeria. After that, economic migrants from barren land will stop overpopulating Lagos.
What are those his legacies in Lagos that are still there for everyone to see
