He was probably just trying to control his John thomas. I heard controlling that snake is not easy. You need serious concentration, willpower, and mind control to control that snake. The poor brother was working hard sister, mentally....I suppose thats the reason he didn't apologized.

iyisco2001:
you go fear na

dustmalik:
God, please give this man the will, strength and long life to be able to carry out his plan, Ameen.

adanduka:
THIS IS A MAN!

PointB:
Then it is foolishness on Buhari's part to ask people to forgive a man who think he's is above reprieve! APC cannot apologise on his behalf, he's not a member of APC! What Buhari should be calling for is his dethronement and and arrest for criminal incitement with the intent to encourage mass murder!

Mr. Akiolu, your people say you are god and cannot descend to human level. Okay ooo. You don't deserve forgiveness, continue in your macabre dance of foolishness, the surugede, dance of spirit!

Let's see how far this goes!

veraponpo:
It takes two to tango.

Oba Akinolu may not be right on this but the attitude of our Igbo brothers and sisters could frustrate one.

Having helped them more than what their region has done for them, instead of being grateful; their actions seem to be undermining the essence of our existence through their incendiary statements. Calling their hosts cowards- what do you want after that-fight to show we are not cowards.

Oba Akinolu is their match and that is why the situation seems difficult now.

A gentle king could be disobeyed easily but did they say anything at the palace? No. They dare not.

It was after leaving the palace that chest beating, ultimatum , etc started surfacing.

Who then is the cowards? Ta lo fe gbenan woju ekun lai f'eje we ( who wants to put light at the face of a tiger without being bathed with blood)

Remember, 'He who makes peaceful resolution difficult , has made violence inevitable.'

Fairgodwin:
What will the apology do or cure? The deed has been done and the damage has already been done, and the fact that he let it drag on for this long would render the apology [almost] useless and meaningless when it is eventually tendered (that is if he would even apologise).
Meanwhile, let's forget all these and move on from here. The Igbos have already decided!! #swimming things activated#, #oya let's go there.
Use the lagoon to prepare for the next olympics; time to defeat Michael Phelps.

JustCare:
Your list I believe is not far from the truth.
@chocolateme do you truly want a change

If yes what we want is a revolution in Nigeria. The one that will see youth taking over the government. A one million march to Abuja can do this...just as we have seen in some countries lately.

Are you ready?

paykobo:
100MB for N25 , usually gets: 25-30 Days validity, plus rollover sef!

Could you kindly rephrase the second question.

paykobo:
We accept both Debit Card Payments and also Bank Transfer. And really, thank you very much for your patronage zenith, remember without you, there's no Paykobo. Tell your friends and family to take advantage of the opportunity. Data can only but go cheaper and cheaper... Save them money and stress of loading recharge card.

Overall, as with all great things, rome wasn't built in a day, and we will continue to find better ways to improve our our products and services to you! Thank you.

belabela:
If Yorubas are bigots like you they will not even allow these guys to contest. When will you ever grow up. Lagosians are lagosians. Stop planting tribalism into it.

cooltone:
These PDP trolls should leave my Igbo people alone and should desist from trying to instigate hate and violence against our people. Nigerians have voted and all those victorious are Nigerians which is also a big victory for our democracy. I love and support APC and full blooded Igbo.

MrIncrediible:
TANOIDS will believe this from "Sahara Reporters"

tivta:
. Every one has his own opinion.

tivta:
. I agree with you about decentralized government, as for tribalism let's also look at the british for example, they have a unified religion with little or no problem (except for some other religions) where as Afghanistan has one religion as well but its also divided into normal and extreme. The same applies to saudi arabia but that country enjoys relative peace. Either way we look at it religion also plays a vital role. I doubt if any senator will approve decentralization cause it will reduce their income and then the northerners will claim marginalization due to poor farming conditions. Remember what happened during the civil war? The igbos knew nigeria has a nation won't progress with the issues I listed in my signature, yet the international community won't allow it because of oil (yet they allowed sudan ) its clear this country can't survive with such issues on ground. There is strength in diversification.

tivta:
. What do you the do when majority of the women you meet are just fashion freaks,materialistic and can't even talk about simple politics without being biased? Trust me bro,if you meet such women constantly you will unknowingly start to generalize, that's why am amazed by the woman's post, she is the only woman on nairaland with such vast knowledge of law.

tivta:
. My God. Are you truly a woman? As in female? Heavenly father I think am inlove. Have never fallen for a woman because of her intelligence(majority of the girls on nairaland are dimwits) You must either be a journalist or a lawyer. My God, am so impressed. I guess women, sorry, few women are actually more than beauty,fashion or beggars(asking for bis and frivolous things). Please forgive me if you are married (your husband is one lucky man) permission to stalk , I mean follow you.

They should privatise it if they can't give the people a better option. However critical infrastructure such as this can't just be laid in the private sector. Govt should build new standard lines just like they build airports and leave the running of the services to the private sector

A cost analysis of "getting it to work" cum its effectiveness would show you that it's better to discard this leprous hand and create a new effective hand. Feedback from even enthusisatic users of this shows a clear support for something new. See the closing quote of the op below esp. words in bold.



Would he patronise them again? I am sure never. Is that an achievement for government inspite of the billions spent? You know the answer already.

onegig:
Unfortunately the private sector is different from government business and until the government hands over the railways then I wouldn't want to compare both sectors and mind you what has NCC done to improve the telecoms sector apart from selling licences and sleeping on duty?.

Maybe you ask yourself what happened to Nitel and why it died. Government was not willing to take risks and give Nigerians a 21st century telecoms company. They were only willing to give Nigerians that second class moribund service and I am sorry Mtel and nitel had competition and they werent able to keep up and died off.

Better idea is when you give people the best with your available resources. Throwing us an archaic railway service and branding it transformation is not foresight but stupidity. The cost, efficiency and effectiveness of such railway system would not jump start anything. When the Lagos to ilorin route started, people trooped out to go patronise it, just a year after and its scanty except during festivities when the fare is free courtesy of Aregbe..

Why would I spend 12 hours on a train to ilorin and still pay N980 when an Hummer bus from Lagos would do the same in 4 hours with just N1600? Also these trains don't run daily so you have to be second guessing when they run and what time they leave. Just use the Lagos to Ilorin route as a case study and ask yourself why companies and individuals aren't using the rail service to ferry their goods after more than a year its been launched preferring trucking it by roads. Simple lack of reliability and efficiency.

Don't give people crumbs at insane prices. This old means of locomotive engines running max 70km/hr has gone way past its time. It belongs to the 60s. Nigeria already had a starting point in rail service as far back 1901 . It's way over time that we move on to better things instead of returning to that starting point 100 years after.

onegig:
Exactly. And europe is never my compass to judge Nigeria. Just got a report that Abacha did the same thing by buying coaches for the moribund sector, Obasanjo did almost half of it, Sambo did the Kaduna -Zaria route while as first term governor in Kaduna but ask yourself where has that got us in the last 20 years?

Same point. So thus isn't criticism. It's about asking what we deserve.
