In a sane society Buhari will resign and sent to Hague instead

krendo:
This group should be glad Saraki saw it fit to confirm his plans to run for President on their platform

I did not know of this movement until this moment

At best they should issue a statement thanking Saraki for gracing their occasion and declaring his intention there but reminding the public that as a non partisan movement the views expressed by partisan politicians on their platform is not the view of the movement

But to condemn Saraki for declaring at this occasion is wrong. The man can confirm his plans to run anywhere he likes!

LaudableXX:
Which cover? I do not need a cover. All I have done is to try and enlighten you, so that you do not continue with your irrational line of thought. Were you not the same person insisting that : "The waterways agency is a regulating agency, they don't sell boats, they don't keep boats and the boat owners in Lagos state doesn't park their boats in front of the agency HQ so exactly what boats are you villagers talking about?" Or have you forgotten you said so?

I made a point earlier that the location of the LASWA HQ, is right along Falomo jetty. The same LASWA invited bids for provision of ferry terminals and commercial ferry services covering different routes, including that same Falomo, where their HQ is located. Yet, nothing has been done there, despite the fact that the jetty is in existence. Instead of understanding this fact, you are making noise and throwing tantrums, that LASWA has nothing to do with boats. Okay, o. Na you sabi.

LaudableXX:
Oh, I thought you said they didn't have boats before? Now, you have conceded they have patrol boats? Ok, we are making progress. Now, the appropriate place where boats are berthed, is called a jetty. Do you agree? Or do you still want to argue that it should be a rooftop?

If Falomo jetty was not essential to LASWA's operations, then their HQ would not have been cited there. Meanwhile, the same LASWA launched a tender for operations of ferry terminals a few years back, and Falomo jetty was clearly listed as one of the places that would feature in the ferry routes, that were expected to be handled by commercial boat operators. Instead of allowing commercial boat operators to provide services from Falomo jetty, they closed it. Now, can you understand why the initial question was asked: "Where are the boats?"

LaudableXX:
There are no lies anywhere. Nobody said LASWA sold boats. Only God knows where you got that one from. As for saying that Lagos Waterways Authority does not keep boats, you are merely splitting hairs. What do they use for their waterways patrol and inspections? Motorcycles? By the way, you did not debunk anything. You simply exposed the irrational contents of your mind. Now, let me give you room to throw another tantrum. Go on...

No matter how much pain it causes you, Falomo jetty is a commercial jetty where the LASWA HQ is situated. And the question remains, why are commercial boat operations not taking place at that jetty? If you do not know the answer, simply say so, instead of throwing a fit.

So, we are now talking about patrol boats?

Ok, I'll go for that deception for the sake of argument.

So, you mean they should have parked the patrol boats inside or on top of the building to take pictures with?


Stop the comedy abeg?

[Abuja – The Not-Too-Young-To-Run Movement on Thursday disowned affiliation with President of the Senate, Dr Bukola Saraki’s declaration for the presidency in 2019 election.

In a statement signed by one of the Converners of the group, Mr Samson Itodo, it said that it was displeased with the use of its platform by Saraki to declare his ambition without prior consultation. “The movement wishes to express its disappointment with Senator Saraki for usurping a platform designed for young aspirants to dialogue with party leadership, to advance his political ambition. “We strongly condemn this act by the President of the Senate and dissociate ourselves from this political move. “As noted earlier, the movement reaffirms its identity as a non-partisan citizen-led movement dedicated to the defense of democracy, political inclusion and transformative leadership. “The movement restates its commitment to sustain its engagement with political parties to ensure youth candidacy and democratic primaries by the parties.” The group said that as part of efforts to promote youth candidacy and democratic primaries, it had commenced series of public town hall meetings with the leadership of political parties and young aspirants. According to it, this is to address the challenges faced by young aspirants in securing party tickets. It said that the movement had scheduled three town hall meetings with the leadership of the All Progressive Congress (APC), People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and other parties. It stated that while one of the town hall meetings was going on in Abuja, Saraki declared his intention to run for the office of the President in the 2019 elections. It restated its commitment to sustain engagement with political parties to ensure youth candidacy and democratic primaries by political parties. It said that the first dialogue held on Friday in Abuja with the leadership of the PDP, adding that the event was attended by Chairman of the party, Mr Uche Secondus, Saraki and National Youth Leader of the party, Mr Udeh Okoye. The group disclosed that young aspirants advocated for reduction in the cost of parties’ nomination forms, and requested PDP to uphold internal democracy in the conduct of its primaries. (NAN)

Ah... I don talk say I no wan laugh dis nite. But you are forcing me to do so. Guy, all those areas I mentioned, I know them like the back of my hand. You cannot tell me the history of Falomo. This is a route I have been plying twice a day, to and fro, on my way to work and back for years. There are no lies in my comments, please!

Go to Falomo jetty today and check if any commercial passenger boats, load and discharge commuters from there. MetroFerry Marine Services used to operate for a while from Falomo in the past, but they stopped doing so, long before the construction work on Lagos State Waterways Authority Headquarters started. Till now, they have not gone back there. And neither have other commercial boat operators been allowed to use that jetty. Only MTN's corporate boat, docks there once in a while. This is a jetty that was originally constructed for commercial operations, o.

Just because some of us are saying the plain truth, it upsets you so much, that you would rather label us as 'IPOB,' when you know full well that nothing could be further from the truth. Anyway, God dey.

Egbon, no mind am. I just dey take corner eye look im face...I no wan talk, yet. E be like say one babe just give am marching orders...

Mujtahida:
Don't mind the idiot. Isn't there a relationship between an inland waterway headquarters and the boats that are supposed to ply the waterways?

I detest when a foolish man preens himself and regards others as beneath him in intelligence when clearly he has none

Ignorant ipob, the Lagos state waterways authority is an administrative agency regulating the waterways, they don't sell boats, they don't keep boats and the boat owners in Lagos state doesn't park their boats in front of the agency HQ so exactly what boats are you villagers talking about?


Or you villagers mean the state should have asked all the boat owners in Lagos state and the ones driving their boats up and down should have parked their boats in front of the agency before taking the pictures?

seguno2:
So what is chuks Anambra doing on the thread?
Are you having an identity crisis
Maybe you should check in to Yaba left for treatment since you can’t afford to go to London for treatment on a presidential jet?
So sorry for your sickness.

Atouba:
If you know the truth about that building you will curse ambode instead of praising him. They have sold out the entire commonwealth of Lagos and you are all here praising him. MUMU youth dem. Thats a political settlement by a corporate entity. If you know you know jare!

Mujtahida:
You are a fool. A colossal fool. If a motor Park headquarters is being commissioned and someone asks 'where are the vehicles' would you call that blabbing? Of course you would because logical correlatives is alien to your myopic way of reasoning.

So, if they commissioned a motor park, you will instead as for motor vehicles even though they did not tell you that they commissioned motor vehicles?

This is why you losers fail WAEC...


I really do believe they manufacture ignorant and unintelligent people every second in your village..

Xander85:
This one is already lashing out at IPOBS when the story has fuckall to do with them! If anything, it speaks of the shithole and disgrace Nigeria has become under your lifeless, vindictive, hateful and bigoted god Buhari!

baxton25:
Fools shouting ambode is working....he shouldn't work before? ......

GetCofOProperty:
This is unfair to the indegenes. We have indigineous professional firms with integrity who can handle such projects

Bashir75:
Don't forget Dubai was a plan desert land that's constructed newly by futuristic Government with less bureaucracy while Lagos has been this old city under military regimes with less adherence to strict urban planning policy. Before the advent democracy, Lagos has been wrecked and bastardised with building structures that will take years to correct. I remember once a well connected woman who built an hotel on a sewage layout and government did nothing to correct it even when the whole neighbourhood protested against the build on the canal. We are our own enemy. It's a cycle, you can see the wealthy moving from VI to Lekki and Atlantic city however, it's used to be Ikeja for the wealthy. When the land is exhausted, they will come back to buy the disgruntled and un-organized city just like most cities in US.

Apologize to LaudableXX asap. Ire o

i doubt you are even from rivers or a niger deltan. Because a niger deltan can't speak bad of his region and people and highly of another region and people.
Be truth you are a yoruba muslim or a fulani one.

LaudableXX:
Very funny. I doubt if you know how much of a Lagosian I am. You are posting pictures of huge cranes, yet Five Cowrie Creek banks are still littered with used plastic bottles, floating debris and trash, as we speak. What a pity.

seguno2:
You are going too far, bro.
How many people are moved on the waterways and in what condition? Has there been any change in the past 19 years of progressive APC in Lagos state
Has the supply of tap water in Lagos state decreased or increased since 1999? Is it building an office that should be prioritised over actual provision of tap water?
Tinubu, Fashola and Ambode are compound failures combined.

LaudableXX:
Fine edifice, but where are the ferries and the boats which are meant to ply the waterways?? And who will do the clean-up of Five Cowrie Creek?

Dandsome:
So the OP posted only pics without Ambode there or even telling us who represented who there. All he said is Ambode commissions bla bla bla and the MOD ran and posted it to the front page.

this is mostlikely a political post as the Topic says Ambode commissions..... and the OP later included his president`s picture and zombieishly shouted Sai barber

Honestly Seun is really losing it.

Nairaland is no longer going to the dogs. Its fast going to the swine.

Seun Up your game, or ask your mods to constantly visit Quora or Reddit to learn a thing or two from there.

LaudableXX:
When people like you run out of logical points, the next thing is to resort to insults. Typical. Now, why am I not surprised? As at today, there are NO commercial boats taking off and landing at Falomo jetty, next to the HQ. Quote me anywhere. If you see any boat there, it is likely to be only MTN's corporate boat.

Realname:
It seems Nigerians get angry when someone asks a question? It's like the average Nigerian is a mini dictator, take what I tell you and don't ask questions atitude .

He ask a question and you termed him ignorant

Come on that's too harsh

LaudableXX:
There was nothing ignorant about my comment. When LASG excels, I am the first to praise them. And when they misbehave, I spare no punches in letting them know it. I have done extensive work around that area. The headquarters is in Falomo with a specialised jetty built alongside the HQ. In fact, before construction work started there, that plot of land where the HQ was built, used to be MTN's staff carpark.

The Falomo jetty at one time, was the take-off point and landing port for many small boats. The next stop was the jetty at Queens Drive Ikoyi, which was manned in those days, by Tarzan services. When construction of the HQ started in Falomo, the citizens were promised that boat services would resume once it was finished, and the authority would supervise the waterways and the jetty terminals. But since it has been completed, no boats have been allowed to pick up or drop passengers there. That was what informed my comment. So please stop twisting things, if you do not know the full story.
