deomello:Clearly you dont know what you are saying Mr. Man. There is a BOT contract oga, that was signed in 2016. No wonder your politicians behave the way they do, they know the people they are leading, unfortunately, not everyone is blind. The simple question you failed to answer, who forced you to sign the contract in the first place, and who says the same way the Government perhaps messed up the selection of the contractual parties in 2016, they still wont do the same again. #yeyeleadersleadingfunnyfollowers |
realborn:Oga nobody has demeaned you,you don't understand the wrong signal contract cancellation mean to the investment community, it simply increases political risk and reduces investors confidence in your system. Not when the likes of JP Morgan and AFC are involved. The country risk premium for Nigeria is currently at 6.4%+, this overnight emotional decision just raises questions. Why not spend proper time selecting project contractors to avoid stories and unnecessary legal battles in future. Same way your polithiefcians were in a haste to sell moribund power assets to their cronies,and till today its one story or the other from all parties. Where is the place of proper RFP and due diligence before selection. Now Ambode has wasted 12 months of development time due to their ineptitude and corrupt tendencies. |
realborn:Again, you surely are on a lonely path, only you will complete. The project was given to the concessionaire under a BOT arrangement for a period of 40 years and parties to the concession include Africa Finance Corporation, Access Bank, Visible Assets Limited, J.P. Morgan Nigeria and Advanced Engineering Consultants, and if these guys have committed huge resources so far, do you think it will be an easy run for Ambode and his fellow 'fools' to simply cancel and bring on board new parties, I laugh in German. Wait and see. Also, have you seen the terms of the contract before you posited that Lagos State Government had a right to trigger a termination after 12 months into a project? What type of flimsy excuse is: "due to slow pace of the work", why are they not giving the public detailed info., or have they found a more cooperating consortium who will grease their palms quite easily? Again, you mentioned that Africa is way behind because of concessionaires or supposed partners who do not meet their obligations, you can imagine such, it is clear you are far from the corridors of political actors in Nigeria (or you are blindly defending them or pretending, its either of the two). Most projects are given to the cronies of these political idiots, who then go ahead to do and undo, so blame it on your certified illiterate politicians who are simply thinking of how to max. out of huge infrastructural projects. Lekki Epe Expressway concession is an example (Tinubu is a major stakeholder in LCC, in fact, he owns a huge part of HiTech Construction Company- the construction company that is in charge of most road projects in South West), Lagos-Ibadan (Obasanjo to Bi-courtney, his crony), MMA II, Ajaokuta Steel Plant (Obasanjo to his son Gbenga) and so many others. Oga, it is not about the speedy delivery of these projects, it is about kickbacks for these polithiefcians. |
nwabobo:Don't mind them.This administration is gradually cementing it's rightful place in the history books as the worst ever that most Nigerians have witnessed. So they better focus on delivering within the next 12 months cos their end is near. |

Vacation is dollar denominated, ACCA, CFA, CCNA, etc are dollar denominated, food items within the country are dollar denominated, transport fare- dollar denominated, fuel- dollar denominated, yet salary remain flat. We never see anything, 9ja wont get out of recession till 2019, take it or leave it, cos 2018 is political risk year, no investor will put their money down for anything, when purchasing power has been completely eroded. i laugh at 9ja in spanish. |
realborn:You clearly don't understand what you're saying cos if you do,you'd know that no single individual can just wake up one day and terminate contracts. It's the height of illiteracy.There's always a dispute resolution process in every serious MOU and am certain a unilateral decision by some crazy politician is not part of it. This is one of the key reasons Nigeria will suffer for long. Go and ask the politicians that cancelled MOUs like Lagos Ibadan expressway,Ajaokuta,etc. It simply brings up very long legal battles that the people will suffer for long before any meaningful work is started. What was he looking at before signing?Am sure some powers that be are just not happy with the Concessionaire perhaps the kickback is not flowing to them as expected so they have to look for a "very willing concessionaire". I won't be surprised if Tinubu orchestrated this.Yeye country. |
Some of us have said it before and will repeat it for the umpteenth time, Emefiele is not fit for the role of CBN for two reasons: 1) Emefiele is one of the biggest shareholders in Zenith Bank (with shares in billions of units), therefore, Emefiele will not open his korokoro eyes and allow his bank's profit to reduce, rather he will protect his interest till he dies, its common sense 2) Nigeria is at a time when CBN's policy must become super-friendly to small scale businesses (MSMEs) to drive wealth creation and reduce unemployment drastically, but we all know that Zenith Bank is not a bank for small businesses, Zenith is fully a Corporate/ Institutional Bank. Therefore, if you are going to be stupid to make a Bank M.D as the CBN Governor, you should be only a little stupid enough to know that Zenith Bank's MD is not the right person for the role. Serious nations US appoint the Federal Reserve's Chair from outside the Banking Industry (Yellen Janet, the current Chair is an example, Bernanke the past Chair, is another), Mark Carney came from Canada to become the Governor of BoE-Bank of England, he didnt emerge from their banking industry. Nigeria have Bismark Rewane, Henry Boyo, Pat Utomi, why not pick a genuinely patrotic Economic expert outside the confines of the Banks, with little to no major shareholdings in a Bank (just like Charles Soludo) Again, it was deliberate by Nigerian Political Actors, to keep their looting spree safe and intact, just incase. #9jaisgoingnowhereIswear! |
Some of us have said it before and will keep saying it for the umpteen time - Emefiele is not fit for the role of CBN. I gave two reasons few years ago: |
What size is too big,what size is too small,op, m thinking its relative.whats small,too small,big,too big?Different babes will give different answers. |
What is it with Nigeria and road projects?Since 1999,18 years and counting of democracy uninterrupted,Na so so bridge Dem de build,what happened to quality healthcare centers with modern equipment,what happened to IPPs for constant electricity,what happened to improving quality of schools across board.I know the answer though, like followers like leaders.They know what will sweep their followers off their feet.Don't get me wrong,am not saying they shouldn't construct roads and bridges but when are we going to move past this. |
Handsomecutepie:You just displayed your animal kingdom traits...lol...who knows you may just be the gatekeeper of the zoo.lol.e de pain am. You mentioned Kanu or JJ, and I still pity your orientation, if they got to where they got with little to no support from your fellow zoomates and zooheads,lol, you and your zooleaders should imagine where they'd have gotten to with full support.Just the last olympics says it all, zoogerian athletes were left to beg for funds to go display their talents, ordinary track-suit, your zoogerian leaders couldnt provide.One of the athletes later went on twitter saying she'd never represent zoogeria again,lol,i was just laffing,cos she never know jack. As for you,i know you aint got any talent or skills to show the world, except displaying animalistic tendencies, so keep displaying ur skills here...yeye. |
This is why i just laugh at younger ones that come to nairaland and be asking funny questions about whether they should travel to nurture their dreams or stay back in the zoo.Where's the comparison,dont let some animals deceive you,if you've got an admission to study over there for instance, please run for your dear life,your kids will thank you in future. |
webincomeplus:Gbam,you know how this yeye country called zoogeria is, these people should just stop all these trying to link AJ's success to 9ja.People thrive in serene environments not animal kingdom like 9ja. |
Una don start again with all these nonsense comparisons. Leave AJ alone please and stop comparing him to M.Ali. AJ is a born boxer and will become great (if not the greatest) in his own generation. Let him chart his own course and make name for himself please, like he is doing already. I dont understand all these crazy comparison of one sports person in a different generation to another. Was there anyone like Ali, or George Foreman or Iron Mike Tyson or Douglas or Lennox lewis or Evander or Klitschko? Certainly not! So leave AJ alone, and let AJ become AJ The Rock or whatever name he chose to be known as. I noticed that nobody ever became like someone else, even with all the comparisons, even in soccer, you hear this one plays like this or that, and all types of crazy comparisons. One thing I admire about about AJ is, he is very focused and won't be distracted by whatever comparisons some crazy people come up with, he knows there is no one like M.Ali and there can't be anyone like Ali. Same way, AJ is unique, and there will never be anyone like him! |
OlanreJohnson:You get sense my bro! You get foresight! Leave them, let them continue to deceive themselves, cos 9ja was even founded on deceit. |
bruzrecordz:So you no see cut for Klitschko's left eye, after the heavy blow from AJ in round 5, he had to continue to stitch it till round 10. Although AJ too has a swollen left eye and a small cut. That was the best heavyweight bout in over a decade. |
Trybes:He wont even be near that ring, if he had committed 'dream murder' in 2012 by representing 9ja. |
oodua1stson:If I hear, which champion as a Nigerian.lmao. Let Nigeria produce 1 single top boxer bred and groomed in 9ja, then I'd agree. The likes of Duncan Dokiwari, where did 9ja get him. That guy was a born fighter, he could have gone ahead to achieve greater things, but for the hell of a country he chose to stay with. He traded so called 'patriotism' for his greatness. Patriotism my foot, for country that doesn't send you.That's why 9ja will keep having brain-drain all across different sectors and the country will be left with riff-raffs and one day, they will all go to war and kill themselves. |
OkparaEze:He must have been high on cheap drugs by then and God saved his ass, cos if he had come back to 9ja, 9ja will have finished his career. I bet you he wont be where he is today. Its part of why some of us say 9ja na dream killer, but those other nations are dream makers! |
rightwingz:Keep deceiving yasef.Sha turn ur igbo to money making venture sha, wherever u de, weda for ghetto in 9jahell, or ghetto for jamaica. |
oodua1stson:Its alright, all of una, keep consoling yourselves and don't see the fact of the matter here that, 9ja has nothing to offer you in terms of developing your skills or talent.At least, AJ's family get sense not to relocate to 9ja, rather they took their beloved son back to Watford where he was born.Many top talents and dreams are walking the streets of 9ja, looking for what to even eat, talkless of nurturing their dreams.if you like continue to live on false hope that 9ja will be like the west soon, when your mates become your landlord in few years' time and continue to achieve their dreams, na then your eye go clear.Serene nations all the way.Even the few sport people that go through hell to train themselves to greatness (Francis Obikwelu, Blessing Okagbare, Bash Ali, etc), were never really promoted or supported as much, and some of them had to go represent other sensible nations. |
rightwingz:You see now, if you were in serene environment now, you could have turned that igbo into some money making venture. AJ is going home with 15 million pounds tonight. Maybe it could have been you sef, but for ur yeye environment. |
OkoNDOoBo:His dad is british oga. |
awelekiti:Oga its not like that.He has been fighting for UK since. He even won Olympics gold in 2012. You know there are functional systems over there to help anyone to greatness, what do you think AJ would have become if he was born and raised in 9ja? |
rightwingz:Continue consoling yourself bro. |
rightwingz:Cos he is not Nigerian. He is a briton for goodness sakes. Let Nigeria produce its own heavyweight boxer and lets see whether he can achieve what AJ has achieved.yeye country. |
ShySteady:Oga, he is british, stop consoling yourself. |
OkparaEze:Oga, nobody rejected AJ, he chose to fight for his birth place UK.or what sort of training facilities do you even have in 9ja that you want him to use. |
ipledge10:If I hear...which victory is for 9ja.Nigerians always quick to claim success stories. If I hear. If AJ grew up in 9ja, I can bet my life, he will either be pushing truck by now or at best, be a bus conductor. In essence, if not for the environment he grew up in around Watford, forget it. So, kudos to Watford, Uk, not Nigeria.Where are all your boxers, who grew up in 9ja? All of them have been taken to the cleaners.lol.Even in his victory speech, he didnt mention 9ja.(but trust 9ja, becos his mum is Nigerian and he tatooed his shoulder, they'd quickly claim it). Better find your way out of 9ja too, if you have big dreams,cos 9ja na dream killer,while nations like UK will help you nurture your dream. |
Op,my dick is 8.5" in length and 5.8" in girth,but I used to feel it's small or average at best. Also the babes have been with always enjoy it to the fullest and always orgasm within 10minutes because I put a lot of pre-intimacy and enter slowly at first and then gradually increase the pace and penetration till the babe asks for more length and it then enters fully with all the juice pouring out. Try that. |
thesicilian:That was what our forefathers were also doing till they were colonized by serious minded nations. Today,those guys are discussing fuelless vehicles,driverless cars,renewable energy,etc.But we are discussing jollof rice,customs uniform,certificate,I swear,the west will forever colonize us. |
kjhova:All you have posted here are simply excuses for the black man's incompetence to put his house in order.Excuses,excuses everywhere.So after 57 years,it's external factors that made the black man not to be able to feed himself or it's external factors that made it so.It's external factors that make black politicians steal at least 50% of the state's funds,truly it's extreme factors not just external.When the black man wakes up from his slumber let me know.yeye leaders leading their fellow likeminded followers. |
