Culture / Re: Is Mass Urbanization And Industrialization A Good Thing? by DaLover(m): 11:09pm On Jul 30, 2013 |
odumchi: I don't think most of you guys understand the real dangers of industrialization and urbanization. I'm not saying that we shouldn't urbanize ir industrialize, rather I think that such things should be limited to certain areas. Like someone said, urbanization is not the same as development. A rural community can still be developed without being turned into a city. In Afam's words, "God forbid a Nigeria without villages." A surburb like you are refering to is an extension to an urban area, it is not a rural area |

Bliss4Lyfe: No it is not? Urbanisation and Industrialisation has to be targeted and designated to a specific sector of any country's economy.what da hell are you talking about? whats with this agriculture people always talk about but want others to participate in? Like I said there is a big difference between abject poverty and rural living, there is also a big difference subsistence farming resulting from abject poverty and large scale farming! |

Politics / Re: Who's To Be Held Responsible For Niger-delta's Underdevelopment? by DaLover(m): 4:35pm On Jul 14, 2013 |
bloggernaija: Themselves .they are responsible for the level of desperation in that region .Those who are well educated and progressive, those who recieved free education, whare are they now? Arent they still parasiting on the oil from the Niger Delta? |
Politics / Re: Who's To Be Held Responsible For Niger-delta's Underdevelopment? by DaLover(m): 4:32pm On Jul 14, 2013 |
dolphinife: I will like us to x-ray the reasons why the Niger-Delta is highly underdeveloped despite its high deposit of crude oil. The people of Niger-Delta are always quick to point accusing fingers to some ethnic groups for milking their natural resources and leaving crumbs for them to swallow. I have found out that these assertions are untrue.Mr Dolfin, Governors should be charged with providing the necessary conditions to make people develop them selves with the resources at hand... Governors can not and will not provide the type of development we desire in the Niger delta... So how are the SW and the Core north responsible for the underdevelopment in the Nigerdelta? Simple By insisting on a policy of sharing instead of a policy of generating ! |
Politics / Re: Will Loans From China Salvage Nigeria's Infrastructural Deficits? by DaLover(m): 7:18am On Jul 14, 2013 |
Reference: Development comes when leadership rallies people to confront their common challenges, whatever they are. It is then resources can be harnessed. It is often said about this country that our problem is not money, it is poverty. Not only do we not have the funds, we do not also have the technical know how, I would like to know where you think we can get the funds from, I would like to know what systemic changes we can have before we start being productive? |
Politics / Re: Will Loans From China Salvage Nigeria's Infrastructural Deficits? by DaLover(m): 10:32pm On Jul 13, 2013 |
Reference: Yes you can just like you can take loans to grow a business but the question remains, should we be doing this. Is this the way to develop. Is this the way America became industrialized or China for that matter, I think not. I appreciate what you are trying to say, but unwillingness of the average Nigerian to be creative, inventive and productive has roots in the "government will do all" philosophy we are currently running, day in day out we are bombarded with how educated some sections of the country are, forgetting that education is only a means to attaining greater development.. There are laws in his country preventing people from being productive, thankfully some of the laws are making way for sensible ones... |

greaterlove: . A lot of Nigerians share your view because of the distrust we already have for the government, but if we are really honest I don't think any government could have come up with a better deal. On the quality of job the chiness will do, I for one know the chiness are thinking long term, $3B is a tip of the iceberg of what Nigeria really needs to invest in infrastructure, like someone said in a previous thread, we need about $200B invested in infrastructure if Nigeria really want to be in the top 20 economies, will they the chiness shot themselves in the leg when there is still a long way to go? I don't think so. So we even need over $200b to get a decent level of infrastructure in the country, Nigeria's budget for infrastructure development every year is no more than $15b, and some baggers on this thread are asking if we need to borrow... Maybe GEJ should ask GEJ to print the money...surprisingly some of the people asking this type of questions are actually graduates from a university! |
Politics / After 14 Years Of Flooding And Collapsing Buildings, Why Is ACN Not Accountable? by DaLover(m): 1:31am On Jul 13, 2013 |
Guess what! AD/AC/ACN has been in power in lagos for the past 14years, yet flooding in the state has continued unabated while buildings collapse every other month.... My question is the general populace of Lagos and Nigerian not holding the ACN responsible for the failure to effect positive change in these areas after 14years at the helm of power! I won't be surprised if his doesn't make the front page because GEJ is not responsible for the flooding or maybe he is? One Nairalanders may be able to twist the logic enough to illustrate how GEJ is responsible for the collapse buildings and floods in lagos 1 Like |
Politics / Re: Why Do South Western Nigerians Abuse The President So Much? by DaLover(m): 9:14pm On Jul 08, 2013 |
Akpomene, the reasons why Yorubas abuse Jonathan so much boils down to economics.. You see, in sane countries..to whom much is given, much is expected, But in Nigeria, much by way of education financing (first cocoa, then oil) has been given to the Yorubas, It would be expected that they lead the nation into an industrial revolution, technological advancement, spread economic empowerment across the country, but what we are seeing is that The Yorubas who have been given so much are asking for a lot more and GEJ is seen as standing in the way of this. Fuel subsidy is serious cheating on the owners of the land where oil is produced, but the Yorubas are the champions of subsidized distribution of petroleum products... The first step to whipping the SW and the rest of the country into a productive mode was taken by GEJ to remove the subsidy and the most educated people in Nigeria have never forgiven him! |

Politics / Re: EU Offers Nigeria $450 Million To Fight Corruption by DaLover(m): 10:16am On Jul 07, 2013 |
Most of the write ups above me seam but ignoramus talk from a set of daft people... Noody even ask ow the money is going to be disbursed, or managed... Will it go straight to the FG accounts, or will the EU appointment a consultant to manage the funds in payments for EFCC lawyers, investigations, crime labs and other hard wares that make evidence gathering for cases in court easier... When we make contributions on these forums, always know that it is an opportunity to impact knowledge! |
Politics / Re: Lagos– Ibadan Expressway: FG Had To Intervene – Jonathan by DaLover(m): 9:59am On Jul 07, 2013 |
I am very worried about how the govt is funding all these projects it is running... The FG earns an average of $27b an year and and only this road is gulping $1b is 48 months or $500m per year... Keep in mind that there are several other parallel projects This brings into question the system of over dependence on 9ja delta oil and refusal of the general Nigerian populace to move from a system of sharing funds to a system of contributing to funding the FG.. At the rate we are going it won't be sustainable for very long |

Politics / Re: Reps Recommends Removal Of Immunity Clause For President And Govs by DaLover(m): 6:04pm On Jul 05, 2013 |
youngies: They dont even need to be strengthened, the provisions for impeachment are clear and straight forward! Removing the immunity clause is just an admission that the HOR do not know what their scope of work is |
Politics / Re: Reps Recommends Removal Of Immunity Clause For President And Govs by DaLover(m): 6:02pm On Jul 05, 2013 |
take dat: Why should duly elected political office holders lose their immunity, therefore subjecting them to civil and criminal prosecution? Removal of immunity clause will generate a lot of distractions and would impermissibly interfere in the discharge of their duties. We cannot afford to have leaders whose energies are diverted by concerns with lawsuits thereby neglecting the effective functioning of government. Fully supported, the reps are on a revenge mission, ever since GEJ refused to support their bogus consituency projects they have resolved to get back at him by any means possible, refusing to approve budget for SEC amongst others... What I dont understand is that their annoyance and greed at loosing this previously uncheck funds is now directed at the state in an attempt to catch GEJ...this is so childish Tambuwal has forgotten that he may one day become president, and these obnoxious laws, if passed, will one day be used agained him 1 Like |

This is great news, the FG is carrying too much luggage, a more focused approach of the FG should be towards policy formulation and regulation, and probably some limited infrastructural development, all others should be dropped..that the only way we can proceed as a nation, This will be definitely be the righ step in the right direction 1 Like |
