That's Lagos for you. A city where the law works! The Judiciary in Lagos state,though not perfect, is still the best! That's why I just shake my head at how folks think that the falsehoods in the Lekkilies EndSars report can escape the detection of the eagle eyes of Lagosians when the city itself is built on Justice.
Please bring your investments to Lagos today. You, your family and your investments are safe in Lagos. God bless you.

Politics / Re: Sanwo-Olu Advocates 42% Revenue Allocation To States by Chucks234: 7:50am On Oct 05, 2021
aremuforlife:

You are wrong, lagos received below average of whag they generate, don't forget that Calaba was on è the federal capital of Nigeria, and Abuja is the present capital of Nigeria. Lagos state has proof her what and she deserves special status.
Lagos state is the number 4th richest city in Africa, how do you think they get to that position.
Moreover, the federal capital wasn't the entire present Lagos, bug a fraction of what we presently have.

Kindly state what is wrong in my statements? Now let me tell you why you are absolutely wrong.
1. Calabar was Nigeria's capital - In what year? I'm sure crude wasn't discovered
2. Abuja is not a state so say something else.
3. Lagos deserves proof of special status - give me reasons why.

4th richest state in Africa driven primarily by it been the former Federal Capital which ordinarily drives, investment to it. If lagos was so self sufficient why the clamour for more allocation and special status?
Politics / Re: Sanwo-Olu Advocates 42% Revenue Allocation To States by Chucks234: 5:01am On Oct 05, 2021
I disagree with Mr Sanwo. He is asking for more allocations to states when they indirectly receive 47% (LG allocation). Also on the influx of people into lagos and the need for FG support which is laughable considering the amount of FG infrastructure in the state (the highest FG presence of any state in Nigeria). A simple breakdown of these infrastructure will help
1. The functional seaports is situated in Lagos built by revenue from other states (eg Groundnut, Cocoa and Crude).
2. The International & Local airport built with revenue from other states.
3. Major highways & bridges owned by FG and built with revenue from other states.
4. Unilag, Yabatech, LUTH, FTC & other FG parastatals built by revenue from other states.
5. Railway also built by revenue from other states just to mention a few.
5. Dangote refinery (technically been built by FG because CBN is a major financier of the project) I forsee an FG takeover in the future if he fails to pay his debts.

So LASG should show us what thay have used the allocations since capital was moved to Abuja in 1993 to do. In 22yrs how many new infrastructure has been built in Lagos by successive governors? They scream we have the highest IGR but forget to acknowledge that this IGR is driven by FG infrastructure in the state which other states do not have the luxury of getting.

Imagine a scenario where imports into the country is evenly distributed amongst the sea ports in the country, with same amount of FG infrastructure in all states we won't be hearing this nonsense from Mr governor.

We are currently in a state of National imbroglio, Economic instability & meltdown, Political unrest cut across sentiments, religion and tribalism!

The News aren't getting funnier with each passing day, many are killed both reported and unreported!

Let's brace up for the effects, it's not going to be funny!☹️

It is funny how you bring up morality. The show is rated 18, doesn't air for free except you have cable tv. How is it your business if people decide to watch it. Who are you to judge what is right or wrong.

Lastly you need to read and understand the economics of this show as it does more to the real economy than you can imagine.

This osimhen doesn't have good ball control. He needs to work on it. There are several ball control drills on YouTube he can practice on his own in Napoli training camp so he can improve. I don't really like players that are not mobile and don't have good ball control like Neymar,rodrygo,xavi and especially that ineista. When iniesta is one the ball it's as if he's just gliding on the pitch, a beauty to watch.

GEJ is no better than Buhari when it comes to governance..

After six years of massive looting, bribery and corruption in government, he went about portraying himself as a "peace maker" (peace maker my foot! )..

The mass suffering in the land today was initiated by him. Is it inflation, insecurity, decadence in education, gradual devaluation of naira, SARS exploitation, to mention a few..

If you ever inherited bad inheritance, you would understand better..

Man of peace my foot! Superficial peace!!!

Get your maths right. GEJ didn't rule for six years. It is funny how you blame someone who left power in 2015 for your problems. Brainwashed Nigerian

Dialpad:
Dollars might end up at 700 by the end of the year.

My suggestion is simple, allow Nigerians to spend at least $3000 using their naira master and visa cards.

The rate will drop significantly, wonder why CBN have not implemented that.

You want CBN to fund no essential items with our foreign reserves? I have not heard any sector that use essential items complain about FX. If you insist on importing perfumes, diapers etc then go and find dollars yourself.

Even as influential as Dangote with his money, foreign network and contacts/connections can't dare the Federal government.

Kanu who boasted that he can play God with his 2m men is in the dungeon of the DSS without a single protest from his so call 2m men in Nigeria soil.

FG coulnt arrest Tompolo. He was in Nigeria all through they no see am catch. And btw arresting will agitate the boys to blowup pipelines.

kokkubabboni421:
Nigeria gives you every reason to be fraudulent
After 25 years, all she got was a three bedroom apartment after bringing honor to her fathers land,that’s it they get to fulfill the promise. Same story for the man who designed the Nigerian flag. Upon consideration, how many young Nigerian would be willing to work wholeheartedly for a country that rewards first class graduate a package of 1500 naira while those who got engaged in a useless reality show keeps buying houses in the island and driving exotic cars.
I’ve come to the conclusion that to succeed in a country like Nigeria, one must involve in a bit of fraud in other to be financially okay, courtesy of our failed government

A first class graduate got hid degree for himself not Nigeria. Chioma Ajunwa put Nigeria on the map in terms of the olympics. Why should the government reward you for passing your exams with flying colours?

To those quoting me, there's absolutely nothing wrong in going to greet the president. It's called decorum. It doesn't mean you're his fan. Remember Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego? They attended Nebuchadnezzar's meeting but held on to their convictions.

Sports / Re: Christian Eriksen To Receive Implanted Heart Defibrillator by Chucks234: 12:57pm On Jun 17, 2021
Beancounter93:
His playing days are over then

Same thing happened to Fabrice Muamba. Once the defibrillator goes in, that's it.

To understand what is going on...the heart's electric rhythym is regulated by something called a pacemaker...located somewhere in the upper part of your heart (I am simplyfying things here)

Once the natural pacemaker starts giving problems..due to either genetics, heart disease, etc..., an artificial one may have to be put in place.

The problem is, the artificial one is not as sophisticated as the natural one...yet. (Technology can only mimic human function up to a point.)..so it may not be as fast responding to variances in heart rate in an active sportsman compared to the natural one.

As an active footballer...Ericksen's new pacemaker while it has saved his life...may not be able to handle the sudden changes in heart electrical activitiy that happens when he is playing football actively...so he has to retire now.

Did you read the part where they said Daley Blind plays with an ICD? Science is far more advanced than you think.

The police already made it clear by manner of physical approach and humble conversation that protesters can go on about their activities but should steer clear of the GF park, all for the safety of the people.

If that simple request cannot be granted, then anyone who defies that order should be treated as a threat —even a threat to other protesters

The police has not right to tell citizens where to go. Stop acting like a slave.

The Lagos-Ibadan railway project is now a reality. If not for the suspension of Twitter, Buhari Train would have been trending since morning.

By this time next year, the Lagos-Ibadan expressway and the second Niger bridge will be commissioned and that won’t be all. So many other massive infrastructural projects will be delivered to the glory of God and benefit of Nigerians.

Point of correction it wasnt initiated by Buhari admin.
