....guess 30 years from now ur grandchildren will say, all this old men dem wey be trad rulers

listenersky:
Season of young traditional rulers, e g ooni of ife

Oga since the time of geneva, there has been rules for treating POW. The NA has ROE for those who voluntarily surrender to the federal troops, and that is how he will be handled.

EazyMoh:
Am still confused about that her Boko converted 'husband'
He should be interrogated. If had participated in any attack then he shall get no mercy.

Name of bank and location pls??

mtchris:
My bro just called me, he said banks are closed.

...Rukpoku-Eliozu-Airforce (PH) route all green. Usual work day traffic along eliozu/airforce bridge ....me humble sef already at work sipping mi koffi!

...This babe is cute Geesssss!!!

Orikinla:
My cast and crew are not on strike. We are not members of the trade unions. And we are against their clueless actions.

the VP is 100% right.

haabimbohlar:
of course they will support, to be honest there wont be any strike.


i really want to be enlighten
they keep saying removal of subsidy but the vice president says there is no such thing but the hike in PMS is because there is no enough fund in the circulation at the moment.

What is the real situation?

SAFETY - http://niscn-ng.com/ Nationa Industrial Safety Council of Nigeria.

AnakinSkywalker:
Scrap the FRSC and merge them with the Traffic Unit of the Nigerian Police. Do same with the VIO.

Scrap NSCDC and merge them with the Police.

Scrap NOSDRA and NESREA and merge them with the Federal Ministry of Environment. Expand the Federal Ministry of Environment to cover not only Environment, but Occupational Safety, Occupational Health/Industrial Hygiene. Till now we do not have a national regulator for HSE.

Pass the PIB and merge the down stream unit of the DPR with PPPRA.

Tell all regulators apart from the DPR and one or two others, to back off from the Oil and Gas Industry. It is too multi-regulated with little or no impact. All regulators are only seeking for oil companies to pay fees and pay their staff out of pocket when they come for unnecessary inspections in many cases. NOSDRA visits.So does NESREA, LAWMA, LASEPA, DPR, Ministry of Health, NIMASA, Weight and Measures, Chamber of Commerce, Road Safety (in depots), NSCDC, Navy, etc. Etc.

Where is that report written by Orosanye or so, who reccomended many critical MDAs that should be merged?

They are called modular cos they are ideally situated as close to source (wells) as possible.

TomLepskie:
I hope the refineries won't be sited in the far North where they ll rely on a thousand kilometer pipeline to get crude oil supply, this is a welcome development, better than the conventional refineries.

...yet the children will not listen. From the flow of the article, you already know the IQ and perhaps age of the child. #Weldone, just hope they will have sense. Meanwhile, i keep asking them why Asari did not build a university in his home town Or any of the other GEJ-Made millionaires build even a health center or market in their community

DropShot:
But the governors have had more than enough time to condemn the criminals already but haven't done it.


Very weak defense! If after reading the article, you still argue this way, one has to wonder about your thought process. There is no single difference between BH, FH or rustlers and this terrorists called NDA and the writer has given enough reasons for that already. The militants are criminals fighting for their pocket and nothing else. Tompolo, Asari Dokubo, and many other past militants became millionaires through militancy while the people they claimed they were fighting for still live in abject poverty.


No sensible being can justify criminal acts on failure of government to yield to militants demands. In as much as I support resource control, I remain unconvinced that it will achieve any desired result where 13% additional derivation has not translated to better living; where creation of Niger Delta Development Commission has not had significant impact; and where creation of Niger Delta ministry has not improved the region's condition.



Just as the writer of that article said, we all are losers in this. And as the people of NE that allowed BH to grow within their region are the biggest losers of the BH terrorism, the same way the ND communities allowing these NDA terrorists bomb oil pipelines and wells will turn out the biggest losers at the end. If I may ask, who have been suffering the past environmental pollution and degradation brought about by similar past sabotage?


Does any northern state have absolute control of resources found in the state? You're obviously misinformed and misguided.


You can't engage in terrorist acts and expect the government to look on. Doing so will amount to giving in to cheap blackmail and terrorism. It's unfortunate that you guys are so misguided not to think of the unfortunate innocent people who will become collateral damage when the FG troops come calling.


I am a proponent of separation. I will love us (Yorubas) to separate from largely uneducated and nomadic north; from largely boastful, bullying and hateful SE; and from largely lazy and natural resource dependent SS. However, in the absence of peaceful separation, I will never support any violent action to achieve secession. Why not call your reps/senators, your governors and other leaders and make them take legitimate steps towards achieving your desire separation?

Genrally, your reasoning is childish and warped. Let me remind you of this saying: "A child that laughs at his father's rotten yams is laughing at the hunger that will strike him in due course".

...yet the children will not listen. From the flow of the article, you already know the IQ and perhaps age of the child. #Weldone, just hope they will have sense. Meanwhile, i keep asking them why Asari did not build a university in his home town Or any of the other GEJ-Made millionaires build even a health center or market in their community ? So much for freedom fighting.

#smh....abeg whr u buy am from?

chocolateme:
I wonder when the price is gonna come down. This little quantity of tomatoes was bought at #600 today..
How is the prices for fresh tomatoes in your area? Affordable or costlier?

Upgrade no repair.....go and read that update again. The quoted sum was suppose to be for upgrade to enable them run at near 100% installed capacity which will not be upto the 40mil ltrs/day needed to keep the streets wet all year round without further import.

EmmaOgbu:
Kachikwu !!! Not long ago u said that FG can't afford 700m dollars to repair our refineries, now your saying that two out of the three refineries are already producing. Choo I hope ur not lying? Cos if you do, we will transfer you to the ministry of information.
But for now let me go dust my generator.

Hi Cleo, a very nice piece u put up here. However, can we exchange numbers over PM, we can take it up from there.
Many thanks.

Sexycleopatra:
Lol.. straightens face

Ladies I believe y'all can relate to this..

Ehem... so the thing is this


Since I joined nairaland, there is one thing I have observed from most nairaland guys who send PM..

When the guy sends a lady pm, and she replies hi or smth, they introduce themselves and all, and she says ok...



Just because they want to ask for the lady's number, the begin to use apian way to do it. with style..


Then next thing, the lady start seeing things like


I'm having issues with my email, can we chat on a better platform? (rotflmao)


I don't use email often, do u have bbm or smth?



To be honest, I dnt enjoy chatn using email, can we chat on a better platform?




I am not very active on bbm and on mail, can I have your whatsapp number?



And so the list goes...


Some bold ones even go as far as giving their numbers without the lady asking, thinking she would add dem up.. just like that?



Comon guys, why not just take things nice and easy... since when did yahoo mail or gmail become a bad platform just because you want the lady's number or you what to see more of her pics?

So are you all now trying to say Google and yahoo are terrible platforms for communication?


We are in the world of smartfones and I believ most people hav got push IMS (instant messaging) so pls stop the lies..


If you want her number, go and collect it. Ask her straightforward, can we exchange numbers? If she is cool with it, she will give you, if she ain't, she won't.. no need to use corner corner style

Dis i hear u say employ 4 GRADUATES God have mercy on our thinking .....@ wat rate naa?

kenonze:
Not too good.

The scarcity is getting too long.
We cant afford getting use to hardship.
Last month alone our establishment spent over N115,000.00 on fueling the generator.
This money is enough to employ 4Graduates

Yet they alone had the courage to publish Senators numbers right? Instead of this ur post while not call ur senator and asked him his position on the budget, grazin reserve bill, CCT amendment act, PIB among others

Smithkafors:
SR is a bias media outlet,they only attack pple who are not on the same page with PMB,tinubu and a particular section of APC these men control.pple open your eyes, SR is not fighting for the masses but for these men.SHINE your eyes and see beyond the screen.

U r right as that is the only lasting solution to the recurring scarcity. But the question is since no refinery can be completed within 12 months, Are we willing to be patient and understand that the queues will not permanently disappear overnight, at least not with the continued sabotage by oil unions, deport owners, markets and our brothers who continue to bomb pipelines.
Indeed the quickest fix we can get now is COLLOCATION, i just hope the minister is thinking in that direction.

omenka:
True talk. These things are obsolete and need complete replacement.

H.E, i asked you if you knew about FLIGHT OPERATIONS not what you are saying. Good you have mention these and if you were quick to point these out, then you should be able to understand that there are no quick fixes to these - Challenges in the Industry, and that they transcend "sitting down". Unfortunately, they are not the same as flight operations ....when next you go to the airport, perhaps you could chat with an ops officer or duty manager to understand better the various "delays" that can be associated with a scheduled flight.

Finally this response is more issue oriented, dropping of the political colouration of the first -- #Better

Cheers

Yes son,I do know that you can count the viable commercial airlines with the fingers of one hand.
I know that those who are still in operation are doing so under heavy debt profile that occassionally require bail out funds.
I know that a few who had dared venture into this sector have packed up.
I know that there are more private and chartered airlines now than commercial ones.
Son,I know that most who have left complained of so much beaurecracy and high powered extortion from the regulatory bodies like faan,nama,ncaa etc which occassionally has caused friction between the management of the airlines and the regulators.
I know that these issues has led to a very few airlines like arik now catering for the teeming population of air passengers.
Son,you and I know that if we could boast of just 10viable commercial airlines,this rush won't be there on a single airline.
One would have hoped that the minister who covers the aviation sector would sit to discuss with the players and operators on how to open up the opportunities for more commercial airlines and hopefully reduce or even squash the extortions faced by the players at the hands of the regulators.
Son,as I speak to you,there are many private aviation companies rendering skeletal auxilliary services waiting for the enabling environment to expand(via international partners or local funding) their services to commercial airlifting.
So you see son,I know enough to know that if the minister will sit down to work and look for how to create the enabling environment,there won't be this run on a single flight.
Son,I know enough cos we too lie in wait to invest. We pray and hope the sector experiences life. Until then,our group plays in other sectors.
Have a nice day.

Do u know jack abt flight operations?

eyeview:
And the minister under whose portfolio lies this mess is busy shifting millions to his homestate to mobilize youths to kill themselves for his personal vendetta against the state governor.
It is well

As at 2012 oga, there was no APC. APC was formed in Feb 2013. Learn to talk sense .....sometimes i just feel like throwing up when i read some comments here.

NextGovernor:
Guy u don't know politics in Nigeria. Nigeria politician can go any length to get sympathy vote. Adams Oshiomhole planned his own accident where a trailer ran into his convoy and missed target along Benin - Auchi road just to get more sympathy votes from Edo people in 2012 and blaming PDP for plotting accident against him. But was exposed after much investigation that the driver is a card carrying member of APC.

If u know Nigeria politicians you will know they are all self centred and care less of d masses.

...and what happens to Wike's vituperations?

gare:
HOPE HE IS ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS FOR HIS UTTERANCES AT THE INTERVIEW YESTERDAY, BECAUSE HE NEEDS TO SETTLES THAT WITH GOD FIRST.

I just pray that the DAP/CRA collabo on infrastructure in Rivers State will be replicated in NIMASA and thus create opportunities.

Tokt:
None of them have been able to fault it so far

Teach the e-rats some lessons based on facts. #Facts

Tokt:
Yes excellent development. Dakuku remains the best commissioner of works in the history of rivers. under his leadership, infrastructural development experienced in the entire state couldnt be compared to all what their predecessors did all combined. he surpassed them all.

This is the result of having "children" on social media. Alot of them talk(type) before they read, some only read the caption and start trashing about. Nice correction.

kITATITA:
Do not get sucked in by the caption. President Zuma was received by Foreign Minister Onyeama. Zuma and Atiku happen to be friends that's why Nigeria leveraged on it by including Atiku in the welcoming party. Recall that Nigeria sent Atiku to South Africa to lobby for Adesina's ADB appointment.

....Guy, are you sure you wrote your "Use of English" yourself? I sincerely hope you are not part of the percent of NL who just buy data to shout APC/PDP/IPOB, e.t.c

It is actually ones not once. God help our youths.

Zceesneh:
It's a good news for all Jambites.

Yesterday, They confirmed their new score has been sent to them and the 40 marks added by Jamb has reflected on their previous score.

One of my friend who scored 165 earlier and was feeling so Sad thinking he might be resitting for that of next year again has contacted me and informed me about his New Jamb score “205” and another who scored 210 now has 250.

I think this is a very wonderful move by the body.
Share your Experience or that of your Love once who have received the 40 mark added to their jamb score.
Drop your Comments.

...and ur St. Saraki just bought exotic cars worth ....N330million. Oya clap 4 urself .

AntiMahdi:
The scam budget is another means to steal the nation dry.

One will wonder why the apc govt will be spending a whooping 10bn through the ministry of FCT to construct 2 homes for such amount based on a deficit budget

Buhari is a thief

Whats the SELLING price not ASKING price biko.

........

People just read Amaechi's name are they begin throwing tanrum everywhere. Can't these lazy bones wailers just read and understand Perhaps SEUN should start asking for some level of IQ proof for intending members and not just allow every dick, tom and harry that can afford 100 naira data plan to start misplace vituperation.

ABUJA—MEMBERS of the adhoc committee of the House of Representatives on failed rail contracts have summoned the Minister of Transport, Mr Rotimi Amaechi; Managing Director of Nigeria Railway Corporation, NRC, Seyi Sijuwade; former Chairman ofPeoples Democratic Party, PDP, Dr Mohammed Bello Haliru; and former Minister of Transport, Idris Umar, to explain their roles in the alleged N1 trillion rail contracts scam


The adhoc committee is headed by Ehoizuwa Johnson Agbonayinma, PDP, Ikpoba/Oha Federal Constituency. They are expected to appear before the committee tomorrow during the investigativehearing.Chairman of the adhoc committee, Agbonayinma, confirmed that all the stakeholders had been duly informed and were expected to show up unfailingly tomorrow.Asked why the Minister of Transport was invited, despite the fact that he is barely three monthsold in office, Agbonayinma said: “The Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, was also invited to tell usall he knows, though he just assumed office but you know government is a continuum.“This 8th House is 100 per cent in support of President Muhammadu Buhari’s crusade against any formof corruption.“We are not out to witch-hunt anybody but anyone found wantingin the course of this investigative hearing will be adequately exposedalthough as you are aware, not until it is proven by a competent court that such persons are guilty you can’t say they are guilty.”It would be recalled that during thelast investigative hearing on December 10, former chairman of the NRC board, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, had denied that during his tenure, no contract was awarded by the board he chaired.Tukur, a former chairman of PDP, had told the adhoc committee that the Procurement Act excluded the NRC Board from participating in theaward of railway contracts.“The Board which I chaired, was never involved in any contract award and was never told or invited to participate in issues of contract award of financial disbursement,” he said.He said throughout his stay as theBoard Chairman of the NRC, no issue of contract award of any amount or tune was discussed or awarded by the Board.Another Chairman of the board, Alhaji Kawu Baraje, also a former chairman of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, told the adhoc committee that he was not privileged to appoint any consultant or award contracts for the railway projects.According to Baraje, all the paraphernalia and indices that would assist him carry out his work were all gone.“We only played the role of inspection because the procurement act excluded the board from participating in any contract,’’ he added.He expressed worry that the country’s railway transportation system had suffered neglect, in spite of playing critical role in the development of the economy.Baraje said more attention should be given to the 25-year railway modernisation plan to boost transportation in the country.Also speaking at the hearing Senator Ladan Shuni, another former Board Chairman of the NRC, wondered the essence of inaugurating a board that lacked the capacity to oversee the award of contracts.
