Gej is not a dictator. Labran maku is a good guy and i am sure he will do the state proud. He has taken a wise decision, Apga and PDP are relatives though.

He is only updating his CV.

Chai

I recall Maku throwing barbs at the governors that decamped to APC

...Though i doubt this story

OrlandoOwoh:
The OP asked a useless question. Buhari is not a public servant like Jonathan. Our concern should be how Jonathan is able to fund his campaign.

We know the omo n'ile that collected N21b recently from landlords and prospective landlords in exchange for keeping this country and our commonweaith at their disposal. E dey for bus stop now to continue.... There is God oh!!!!!

Someone should chain this man!!!!!!


Defeat don scatter him grey matter.


It will be very interesting to see him on as a candidate of another party after his tirade against Kwankwaso and co.

Caseless:
the most important thing is that he's a nigerian and, not his tribe.

He is from Fernando Po.

akinsadeez:
Even though I don't like Reno or Omokri I have to say this piece was quite well written and understandable. This is the right way to project the president instead of d usual crass and abusive speeches that Okupe and co are so used to writing. Bring out facts and make sensible points instead of puerile and infantile mud slinging.

I was really amused when Reno mentioned "MORAL COMPASS " .

The ship captain he represents has a faulty compass and seems to be seeing land from the opposite side of his binoculsars. Any wonder why his ship is always in rough seas and not approaching any port??

IamDejman:
Busy!!!


Wait for me to finish my Law degree and Law school

LOL
...
. That will be for another day
.
You are not a lawyer ,yet

IamDejman:
Don't tell me INEC too is Clueless?

And I ask


Is there any law that stops INEC from being a complainant? ?? Where are our lawyers

Collynzo22:
Yakubu Tsalhatu, you have nothing to worry about.
I can assure you that the bridge will not be tolled.
You can take that to any bank of your choice.

YAHOO TROLL...

If you are so docile to accept the PPP arrangement, I do not see how you can stop the toll.. Yahoo guys do not have credible accounts or reputations so keep your cheque....

Be carefull what you wish for...... There are more resourcefull and,adventurous people around.

eighTHREAD:
don't mind them. They even go to the extent of posting fake pictures which they portray as those of the username they feel made a statement that doesn't support their stupidity. I use to believe their pictures till they posted one claiming it belonged to a certain NLer who came out to refute their claims by showing us a link to a thread in romance section where he posted his pictures and also gave his facebook address. This guys are just pathetic.

yahoo yahoo tins Time running out

Its convenient for GEJ to give sermons because he uses guys paid by taxpayers
.. Doyin and co to do this for him.

aresa:
That was the deal with the previous contractor and it was canceled.

A fresh and direct contract was awarded last year and it wasn't PPP.

2nd NB is not federally financed, the 3 times inflated project it was sold to JB for 30 years meaning SE men, women and children are going to pay out of their own pocket by paying toll to JB for 30 years while JB sends the money out of your community straight to Germany. It's called capital flight.

It is my view that the central government should have financed this project just, like the apparently unnecessary ( my opinion) racing tracks and edifices being erected in ABUJA . Certainly this bridge is more portamt and if you do not intend to toll abuja r facilities, why Onitsha bridge?

eighTHREAD:
when I saw the bold, I thought it was the person's username till I looked and realized it's not. Now you are calling me segun. I'd have thought you had a way of knowing nairalander's names until you called me segun, a wrong name. Whatever you're smoking is bad and not adviceable to move into the new year with.

I noted that too and it is indirectly aimed at connecting views along a sectional divide.
People should listen to the message and leave the messenger.

The major lie about this bridge is how the people of the south east were deceived by GEJ , and their leaders to accept the tolls to be charged on this bridge for 25 years.... who is charging tolls on Abuja infrastructure that were built while Onitsha bridge was allowed to deteriorate or not replaced by a new one?

' Are others paying for similar federal facilities?

RockMaxi:
Nigeria Police! Water don pass garri for Nigeria Police they are now looking for where to hide in shame. This same event that was reported in dailies and aired by media houses.
So we had a complainant when Tambuwal defected to APC and they swung into action by blocking the entrance to the house.
Help me ask the NPF who provided security for the said occasion?

It is called selective amnesia .......

StealthyMe:
And the hall of Shame would contain the names of politicians convicted of corruption abi


#Yimu...dey deceive yourself ooo

AND THOSE WHO PARDON THEM

IamBuhari:
There is a difference between a lie and a stated fact. None of my uploads are based on opinion, they are all referenced statements from a thoughtless mind. A man that cannot bridle his tongue will sooner or later bring woe upon himself or upon others.

Don't be fooled by your desperation for change. Sometimes the grass is not greener on the other side.

from a "thoughtless mind" ?


You are not helping your cause.

What advice do you have for those who cannot bridle their brains?

Chanchit:
GEJ said it already, "I Don't give a damn! I don't care what anybody says, I'm not declearing my asset" so don't expect it now.

Wrong... GEJ has only Aso Rock and two fish tanks.... one tank in Bayelsa and Nigeria is the other tank and of course the second one is Nigeria for his zoological experiments!!!!!

Look at this liar.... Those who lived around Agbonmagbe, directly by the causeway to third mainland bridge may remember what happened during the UPN/NPN days when voting took place at night. UPN stalwarts raided that place and the culprits ran out with the ballot box and neighbours were shutting their doors on Old Yaba Road.


We all know the famiy that owns that house.

PointB:
Dear Nethanyahu,

Thank you for your concern. Indeed we face same kind of cowardly enemies who seek to harm unarmed civilians.
Do note that we could do with Merkava tanks, assault rifles, and other weapons of carnal warfare.

Please do strive to send these as a gesture of your support.


Sincerely,

Concerned Nigerians

Carnal warfare ke condoms, vibrators, viagra !!!!!! really

Bimpe29:
Attention: Your spelling of the late former Head of State's name was wrong (Murutala), you may wish to take a critical look at 20 naira note for correction.
And for your question, you can't be more wise and intelligent than notable Nigerians that immortalized him. However, the ultimate is for you to make an indelible print on the sand of time.

Why bother, @zendy &co should not put "muri" in their pockets if it gives them nightmares and let us move on with our lives. That is not too difficult.

The body language of this government has encouraged negative thinking. While I hail the efforts so far, the wide gap between our politicians, the military and civil society is evident. The most dangerous thing is to have a military that can neither defend itself nor the country as a result of lack of resources or policy direction.

It is very difficult for me to resist this negative thought of the ruling party pursuing a "scorched earthed" policy to get the minimum 25% but ensure that the opposition does not harvest massive votes anticipated in the affected zone . I do not see how Bamanga Tukur, Marwa, Boni Haruna, Shekarau, Hassam Adamu , Jubril AMINU, MUAZU or even the big masquerade himself can unfurl their umbrella successfully,

These are indeed difficult times for all of us.

The domestic scene of the nation’s air transport sector is witnessing a boom, as more airlines join the sector, bringing down fares.

With increased seat capacity, new entrants such as Azman Air, Discovery Air and Air Peace, have crashed the fares to as low as N9,000 (one way) on the popular routes from Lagos to Abuja, Kano, Portharcourt, Enugu, Calabar among others, as travellers throng their counters.

Already, with the coming of Air Peace with seven (Boeing) B-737 aircraft, Azman Air with three B-737; Discovery Air with three B-737 and FirstNation also with three B-737 , capacity in the domestic scene has increased, as travellers also have more choice among ten airlines, as against the previous four as at three months ago.

Before now, the sector could only boast of about 45 aircraft with Arik having 26, Medview five, Dana four and Aero ten. However, with the addition of 16 aircraft, analysts say the sector is looking up, with more competitive fares.

Also, a visit to the domestic airport in Lagos reveals that across –the-counter fares which previously stood at between N25,000 and N35,000 now go for between N20,000 and N30,000 with established airlines depending on the destination and time of travel, while the relatively new ones are wooing passengers with price slashes.

Dana Air has a bold banner on the top of the wall of the domestic Terminal-2, popularly known as MMA2 asking passengers to take its flights for as low as N10,000 when they book online.

Discovery Air says ‘Everywhere in Nigeria from N8,000’.

Meanwhile travellers are basking in the fare slash, saying it is already breaking what they think would be a monopoly, especially during the Yuletide season.

“This is good for the sector, we can now come to the airport and select from the airlines, whether online or across the counter, at least there are choices for Nigerians”, Tunde Adewale, a passenger, observed.

Another traveller who flew on one of the new ones, Air Peace, described the situation as ‘good times’ adding that the old airlines have no option but to also begin to lower their fares.

“You know they are now competing with one another and that is why competition is good for the system. Customers will have the power to choose and dictate the tune because they will be competition for us”, he said.

However, observers are cautioning the airlines to also brace up for the challenges of maintenance, as safety is key to the system.

They are of the opinion that when airlines operate at a loss or offer too low fares to attract customers, even when fuel prices and maintenance fees are still high, “there is the tendency for some aspects of the airlines’ operations to be affected.

“As much as the sector needs more airlines and needs to put in place, measures to attract more people to travel, there is also the need for them to consider other factors such as high maintenance fees, aviation fuel prices and others.

“They should not operate at a loss in the name of attracting passengers and at the risk of compromising safety, which is very important”, Ebenezer Adewole, a travel analyst said.

Abdulahi Mohammed said, “there is need for the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority to monitor the trends as both travellers and airlines are needed for the sector to boom as expected.

“Although it is a deregulated market, the NCAA should ensure that safety precautions are still adhered to in the face of an anticipated growth”, he said.

Enjoy, ,while it lasts. Many of them will soon fizzle out. At the expense of being called names, many of these guys na,,money miss road. After the initial blingbling, na downhill.

Regulatorsmust ensure that standards are kept and this means money . Operators with out track records portend danger.

barcanista:
He will fail then. I see that Dokpesi is eyeing a top post in the cabinet

Yes o... Compensation for Bamanga Tukur... him and Raymond na left and right leg... for the same sokoto.

It takes one ostrich to know another. Doyin is among the numerous ostriches that inhabit that zoo called Aso Rock.

If we had giraffes there, they could have used "giraffe method" and seen how things are done in other places.

If wr had,lions nko?? BH FOR DON SEE PEPPER.

MrKnowitall:
That's not a Nigerian made car...that is a Chinese made car. They make the parts in China and assemble it in Nigeria. Hell it's even using a mitsubishi engine. I wouldn't want my enemy's dead body to be carried in that accident waiting to happen. What safety standards has the car passed? You get into an accident in that thing: YOU DIE.

Most development countries have safety standards and regulations that a car must pass through before it can hit the road. Not just put Chinese parts together and call it a car.

You neva enter molue before ....standard ko sitdard ni..... enter moto and pray to reach ya bus stop jare!!!!

I hope that Okereke Onyuike woman was there to collect the offering.... remember her

More like, comparing Bajaj and Harley Davidson!!!!

MillionDollars:

No mind them, anyrhing to collect the dollars and spend the last kobo in the budget. Next time na Alcatraz dem go go..

enigstil:
What is wrong with this country as a whole?i keep on asking myself,few days ago the finance minister was telling d whole nation that austerity measures needs to be put in place.That they need to cut down on govt spending.Now they are saying these rubbish,approving 60.8billion naira,paying 5billion in advance.Is this the next thing?there are cities all around Nigeria that needs alot of infrastructural development,and these kind of money is about to wasted in the FCT.Its high time we wake up from our slumber.GODBLESS NIGERIA

I have always asked this question..

Must Abuja be built in one day?
Are there no competing demands?
Is this not a deliberate ploy to siphon funds and distribute patronage?
Who are the unintended beneficiaries of this madness?
Has the govermment provided services anywhere near this money to the aborigines of the FC T? Or to the polluted oilfields in the SS? Erosion in SE and SS, desertification? and so many others?


What is the justification of spending this money on
blatantly unproductive civil servants .... less than 1% of the population? To make them adequately comfortable to further drive the gravy train?

I honestly do not see what the FCT contributes to this country, apart from insulting our sensibilities and showing us the wrong way to run a country or how beastly our leaders are!!!!!

Lamb/wolf, eunuch/hemaphrodite


More like very rabid and cunning puppeteer, pulling strings from afar..... this is not what we bargained for.

This maradona will soon dribble himself and ... God forbid... score an own goal.
