Travel / Re: Qatar Airways To Start Operations In Enugu, Kano, Port Harcourt Airports by Crofton: 4:56pm On Nov 27, 2021 |
PROUDIGBO: The ethnic make up or identity doesn't matter, the most important thing is for the Rivers government to intelligently utilize the potential of their S. Eastern neighbors. Lagos government isn't concerned about the tribe or ethnicity of their next major investor, they just want to keep pushing to increase their revenue. Rivers should do same, they should keep aside all igbo resentment (If there is any), and forge a path for mutual development between PH and SE. There are so many opportunities untapped. |

Igboid: The territorial sea and EEZ of a country are based on length of the country's coastline rather than it's land mass. |

Hightser: PH is actually underperforming. Rivers government is not exploiting SE human capital potential, they should be linking the Ports in PH to Akwa, Aba and Onitsha through roads, they should forget about the FG . There was a thread few days ago that pointed that Anambra importers prefer the Lagos port to PH port . 3 Likes |

OhBritannia: I can believe this for Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, but for Bianca ? Seriously ? If Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the major secessionist group in SE was arrested and is still being detained then who is Bianca Ojukwu. Trust me, If she steps on the wrong foot, FG won't hesitate to calm her down. She knows this and has been keeping low key so far. Mind you the reasons Politicians are scared of arresting or detaining past politicians or their predecessors is the fear of retaliation when they leave rather than the repercussions that may occur . 5 Likes 1 Share |

Ade1177: I don't know why people hate Fred but sincerely the guy is not that bad. Although he underperforms sometime, he still offers a lot of support to MU defence and midfield . Mctominay isn't strong enough to single handedly hold that DMF position, the support from offers a lot . 1 Like |

Sports / Re: 2022 World Cup: Nigeria To Face Any Of Egypt, Ghana, Cameroon In Play-Offs by Crofton: 6:37pm On Nov 17, 2021 |
Aufbauh: We must not do it like the Europeans, both Asia and South America have different world cup qualification methods and it's not bad because every continent is doing what fits them . Africa have just five slots and there are only 4 teams per group, so only the group winners are eligible for play off. |

DOTian: Bro, you don't expect everyone to reason similarly even if there is a unified agenda. OP's views here are valid, he wants his region (Biafra) to secede from Nigeria but not at any cost . Like he said the cost of disintegration shouldn't be greater than the cost of Unity . |

Literature / Re: Chinua Achebe's 91st Posthumous Birthday Is Today by Crofton: 3:49pm On Nov 16, 2021 |
Maxymilliano: Your comment is wrong, that was not Achebe's quote, he only referred to the quote to counter it as lacking sense and reason . According to Achebe in his book "The trouble with Nigeria", A goat needs yam as food and nourishment to survive whereas corruption is not a basic necessity for a Nigerian to survive . He also added that the comment was completely unfair and although Nigerians are not the best behaved people on earth, they/we (Nigerians) are what we are because our leaders are not what they should be . 1 Like |

afube: Can you prove that the UK government is actively supporting "Fulani Interest" directly or indirectly? Was it not the UK that gave asylum to IPOB? Was it not in the UK Nnamdi Kanu aired most of his podcast that highlighted the "Fulani Interest"? Don't say what you don't know if you are not adequately sure. |

Business / Re: 10 Most Valued Currencies In Africa by Crofton: 10:50pm On Oct 20, 2021 |
What some people don't understand is that the relative value of your currency does not significantly define your economic situation. The CBN and FG can decide to make 1 dollar equal to 1 naira within 2 months, but it won't make any reflective economic change beyond easing minting process, etc. We put great emphasis on currency relative value as though there are not developed countries with progressive economic system where a dollar equal > 500 unit of their local currency. 1 Like |

descarado: Some comments on Nairaland are grossly annoying, there's a new trend here of bashing women and girls regardless of the situation . While the Men from other climes have built a proper and sane environment for themselves and their women to enjoy, we have relegated ourselves to this level of enormous stupidity . Sometimes, I do hope this anomaly occurs just on Nairaland, unfortunately not . 5 Likes |

Politics / Re: Igboland Is LANDLOCKED, STOP ARGUING (proof) by Crofton: 7:48am On Jul 23, 2021 |
GerogeI: Several West African countries are Damming the Niger . www.ipsnews.net/2011/10/west-africa-niger-river-under-pressure-from-dams/ The only point I was trying to make to that fellow was that Even if a river flows through more that one country, it doesn't necessarily guarantee an Landlocked country on it's path an exclusive usage to transit through the River outside their territory . It requires agreement and negotiation, For the downstream Nation to preserve the economical and ecological feasibility of the River, they will reach agreements with the upstream states not to Dam the River or carry out any project that may affect their region negatively, In exchange for Power and Maybe Freedom of Transit . Let's assume the River Niger is Navigable, does it mean Niger Republic cargoes can transit through Nigeria without prior information or agreement ? |
