You have done your part in creating the trains and railway

If you think cameras is what would provide security then no be true

If cameras see them can cameras engage the terrorists in gun duel outskirts of city

Buhari that can't use army to secure roads in north, is it now camera that would help him

Maybe you didn't understand the point you quoted, I meant by now the military ought to have started giving them hot hot...if they are not ISWAP or Boko boys, then we should be on the heels of those bandits by now. Because trust me, if there is no swift repercussion for this madness, those guys will grow more balls to attack even more strategic locations. Or even start shooting down commercial planes
That was why I used the term..."one off"

That is to say..the military have always been giving them hot hot...u see some of them on front page but choose to ignore..

Oya those who are always waiting for bad news to have something to feast on, food is set.

Waiting for who will call him "Minister of Condolences"

But seriously, in a sane country, the govt immediately goes after the perpetrators with all its military apparatus, making arrests and bombarding their enclaves. This is disgraceful...Airport and Rail within 36 hours, what effrontry. As a President, I would personally be at the military headquarters supervising virtually as my armed forces rain hell on them and their sponsors. But yeah, Buhari is the President. angry

I said it when violence was used to destabilise GEJ's govt, hence, paving way for Buhari. I mentioned at the time that if it succeeds in helping Buhari win, it will become a trend that would be used by desperate politicians to get to power.

Although Buhari is a disaster when it comes to securing the nation, it is however not a coincidence that these two attacks are happening less than a year to the general elections. My people brace for more daring attacks...SW in particular should brace up, "winter is coming"!
They were repelled shortly after the attack...
Same thing at the attack at the Kaduna airport.
Soilders engaged them..

But this is after their aim has been achieved..
And many of them make the run for it.

Preventing attacks like this are difficult as these terrorist plan a properly coordinated attack..

Who would have known that an IED was planted on the rail track.. U really don't expect security to patrol a 186km rail track 24/7

This was a one off though..


As for the rail.. Some electronics should be installed on the track to detect illegal activities and if possible the entire track fenced

They know Forex earnings are low...plus crude oil price which Nigeria does influence..

If they want to really to do something to bring it down..they have to go to Europe protest against the war and sanctions...so DAT the gas market can stabilize and crude prices can come down.. Otherwise they were wasting their energy

Emmafrancis:
I need someone to educate me here. Please how can the hike in the price of dollar affect a product that is produced locally in Nigeria? Do the dealers buy the gas with dollars here in Nigeria?
Also whats the connection between crude oil price and natural gas? The two are different, why should the hike in price of crude affect gas?

"Understanding Nigeria problems" na 20 unit course
Oh For fuvk sake

Nigeria imports more than 55% of it LPG(cooking gas) which requires forex..

LPG is one of the derivatives of crude oil...so once crude oil prices go up..the prices of all it derivatives including LPG (Cooking gas ) goes up..

Lastly Nigeria doesnt subsidies cooking gas...so the masses feels the heat..

What we need now is dangote refinery to be come full operational as LPG us one of the products they will produce in abundance..

ShenTeh:
White elephant project.

That would just be the next cash cow for our polithiefcians.

This one no be deep sea fibre optics o. You mean about 7000 kilometers of hard subsurface high pressure gas pipeline cutting through different geographies enroute Europe.

Don't get me wrong- I'm not saying it can't be done, but it CAN'T be done by the present crop of Nigerian leadership. It is going to be capital intensive and a long term plan: a virtue alien to us.

Secondly, European politicking won't allow Nigeria to breathe once that succeeds.

Abeg, I still dey sleep.
Well

It requires partnership with Algeria and Niger...

Currently NNPC is building a line from ajaokuta to kano...
The next stage is to get it from kano to Niger...Niger will have to play it part to build to the neighboring country (Algeria)...once it crosses the entire Algeria ..getting to Europe is just a matter of a few kilometers (kinda)

Ok... kindly break it down nicely by doing a comparative analysis between this administration & others before it. Am waiting
Lagos Ibadan express way- 127km(cost-N330bn+)
Lagos Ibadan railway with extention to the port -156km+(cost-$1.6bn)
Abuja Kaduna Zaria kano expressway-375km
(cost-N797bn)
2nd Niger bridge (cost -N414bn)
Loco oweto bridge (cost- N56bn)
2nd ikom bridge (cost- N9bn)
Abuja- keffi-lafia -makurdi express way
Suleja- minna expressway
Warri itakpe railway
Bodo bonny bridge (N120bn)
Kaduna to kano railway (ongoing)
4 completed international airport terminals..
Ikorodu sagamu road
Zungeru power plant(700MW)..

Mention any legacy project under YA/GEJ after 8 years...the only thing GEJ commissioned are the inland water ports which never worked
Or maybe Benin ore expressway..
Mention any other legacy project under his belt..it took PMB to complete even the abuja Kaduna rail ..

Buhari has more than 10 legacy project in just 8 years

The only major project OBJ built that still solidly exist is the abuja stadium..what else..

Can u believe the 16 years of PDP.. They didn't built one bridge..one single bridge..
While bubu will build 3 Bridges which cost N414bn, 9bn and 120bn respectively and will still commission it in his tenure...


Many of the project I listed will remain solid for at least 3 decades with Nigerians remembering bubu for them.

More than 600km+ of railway (Lagos Ibadan, warri itakpe, and Kaduna kano ongoing)

Building the busiest road in west Africa ..(Lagos Ibadan express way)
Has almost completed the most expensive project in the whole of SE since the Creation of time.. a project 16 years of shame used to scam SE (2nd Niger bridge)

PoliticsRe: NRC To Rehabilitate Minna-Baro Rail Line With ₦80 Billion by Cognitivereason: 7:31pm On Mar 27, 2022
The cost sounds moderate...remember it is in naira which has been devalued exponentially ..am sure a standard company like CCECC makes their quotation in dollars...besides look at the economy..

Anyways that quotation only makes sense if it includes building modern station along the route

The portharcourt Maiduguri railway rehabilitation cost is $3bn = N1.242 trillion naira for 1,442km of tracks..

This means rehabilitating 200km of PH to Maiduguri cost around 172bn although Amaechi made it clear that it involves removing and replacing most of the entire tracks which are deteriorated

InvestmentDo People Really Make Money In Forex Trading As They Claim? by Cognitivereason(op): 8:09am On Mar 25, 2022
So we must one way or the other heard about forex and know a thing or two about it...

I remember last year when a lot of my friends on whatapp as wells as some whatapp TVs boasting about crypto being the future ..presuring people to join forsage and the likes..insulting those who save in banks instead of buying coins ..bla bla...
Now after the massive dips experienced recently everybody seems to be calm now. Lolcheesy

A lot of those who update their status with several binance screenshots and future trades have switched to Twitter savages and comedy..(am one of them) grin grin ..now not much is said about crypto..

Anyways...another way to make money online is forex trading.. And am still being pressured to learn from people claiming to teach for a fee....though I have other plans to do freelancing instead..but I don't want it to be like am missing a golden opportunity by not learning forex instead..

. I know some people who learnt to significant level..they filled their phones with MT4, MT5 ,etc but aren't trading with their real money or making shit out of it...maybe thy are not serious..who knows..

The real question to those who trade the forex market, or you know people who are into it..or u generally know what it about...

Do u really think everyone or most people who seriously venture into forex trading actually make a lot of money from it...please share ur ideas about forex trading..

I kinda think those who want to teach the whole forex trading make their own money from the training fee not the trading it self..(I may be wrong).. Please share ur idea about forex trading

All this ones hailing sanwo and call this a good job...it either or not critically thinking.. Or u don't even know the problem of Lagos...

The money wasted on this project to create another problem on the road should have been used in building more boat terminal, buying modern boats to enhance transport via the water ways..

If at all they wanted to do something that will use the roads...he should have just bought more BRT buses since they have their own designated lane...rather than this ones DAT will add more loads on the roads..

Except he just want to revive the old taxi system with unique identity and modern look...i don't see this solving so many problems

I don't need your lectures on what devalues a currency. You Fulanis are learned criminals who perpetrates evil against fellow Africans with your knowledge, intelligence and wisdom unlike the Caucasians who have improved mankind with theirs.

We know the Genesis of currency manipulations through hoarding which started under the Abacha regime.

Give your Fulani free dollars.
Hoard it to make it scarce at a given notice
Then sell it when the price increases in accordance with desperation for it by Igbo importers.

You people are doing it today with Fuel.

The British, having conquered the Sokoto caliphate should have exiled you Fulani devils back to senegal where you guys came from

Nonsense
The highlighted link...explains why the rail is going to be built..and the potential benefits...it doesn't in any way prove that it exist or being built...the useless newspaper put the headline that way as clickbait..
Post the link DAT says ..construction has started...it very simply ...u can add images from the construction site and photos of the flag off.after all when CCECC was building the Lagos Ibadan and abuja Kaduna ...images were flooded over the net with amaechi frequently visiting sites..

A project DAT u claim exist..y has amaechi never in his life visited the site to monitor the non existent construction..
.do u even know the name of the contractor because it not the Chinese that is handling this one

Pls u are just daft abeg

Anyways....what devalues a currency.. In this case ..naira..is when the total worth of ur exports reduces exponentially therefore attracting less dollars ...or ur increasingly spending a lot of forex(dollars) by importing...

This two event reduces the reserves and forces every central bank to devalue the currency (naira)..

This happened in 2014 when the crude oil price fell from above $80 to less than $30..
And production falling from 1.8million barrels /day to less than 1.5 million barrels/day due to insecurity in the Niger delta
Automatically reducing the total worth of Nigerian Brent crude by over 100%..meaning the amount of dollars we got was extremely low to finance our imports
CBN in reaction had to devalue the naira by over 100% (from less than N180/$ to N360/$)
