everybody wants an international airport at their backyard

hows it going?

Fashola didnt talk about the dare-devil tactics employed these lastma agberos??

_{funny how everyone invited/present was on the side of the government and not the road users}

that would depend on the location, facilities and services on offer

they are all claiming 4-5** when some are only providing 2* service

Go-carts??

Nice hope i'm not too old to go on those!!!

Who or how do they get their star ratings? seems they all just claim 4-5*** STARS likes chieftaincy titles

its unfortunate you are in nigeria _{sounds bad doesnt it?}

But some big Accounting companies will hire you with your qualification and experience ethey will even pay for you to get more qualification and experience

some employ student right from (College) A-levels then put them through their programme

Unity and Wema bank 31st June deadline is next week!!!!


All these nigerian threats they should also sue the CBN/NDIC for not creating an avenue for customers to get their funds pre-consolidation

It was an embarrassing drama as the legislators who were deliberating on a Motion on Notice to congratulate Dr. Emmanuel Okwesilieze Nwodo, National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) shouted their colleague down.

they were actually debating a motion to congratulate someone? when there are millions of failing business in town
what next have a weekend 'congratulatory workshop' in Paris?

harakiri:
Don't blame the hotels.If there was constant power supply in this country, it would be different.For instance, imagine yourself having a 40-room hotel and you have just 2 people occupying the cheapest rooms at N5,000 per day/nite and they both checked in during the day time.You are forced to burn diesel from daytime, through the nite till day break.At the end of the day, you've spent more on diesel that what they paid to lodge.And you have a hotel to run,staff to pay and your own personal bills.It's not easy.Don't blame them.

and the days they are getting full capacity with their exorbitant price? If the management is good they will get local business to patronise them for their conference and also have long term regulars; chances are these hotels wont bring their prices down  even if there is constant power supply, they have a way of fixinf their price bringing out some other excuse, the cost of diesel is not affecting airline doing N6000 promos

Earlier this year the contractors handling the project were given a deadline of June 30th 2010, to complete construction work.

next week, any new pictures to see the progress

I thought you said schemes like these were PPP, where is the dubia counterpart in all this or is bellview teh private partner now?

----Generally speaking buildings and facilities in Lagos are not well maintained and the Moorhouse now falls in to that category. The room (suite) I stayed in is in serious need of paint, the bathroom is in a sorry state, gardens are not maintained. There are pot plants on the balconies of the rooms and on the landings in front of the rooms - well the plants are dying as they are not being watered. I watered the plants every night during my stay and what a difference a bit of water can make to a plant.

I had guests over for dinner at the Moorhouse restaurant. It took 1 hour for the starters to be served and another hour before the main course arrived. At that stage we decided to give deserts and coffee a miss.

No return to the Moorhouse for me.

----Not recommended. The hot water in the hotel has not functioned for over a month, except for one week when there was only hot water but no cold water at all. For some reason, at night there is only one person working besides security personnel, so it takes a tremendous amount of time to check in, check out, retrieve luggage or do any other reasonable thing.

review on a $410 hotel

you really cant blame the government for these 'little' things

kokoye:
I support Sauron here.

Apart fro the basic ammenities like electricity n water, how many people patronize Nigerian hotels compared to the numbers who patronize hotels in Dubai and New York?? Not a lot I am sure.

In New York, a hotel services hundereds of guests per night . . i'm sure a Nigerian hotel may not have up to half of that. So the cost will be spread over the little clients they have of course, since no company wants to run at a loss.

Also think about the extra security Nigerian companies have to pay for.

The only think I cant stand is that these hotels or companies will NOT reduce their prices even when things get better.  

Now dont get me started on cstomer service . . it is non-existent in my country

Thats because they are criminally over priced! they are shooting themselves in the foot by setting higher rates, even heard some only collect dollars if you want to book in advance!!!  

If prices are fair many people will go away on weekend holidays, stay longer for out of state exams or training etc etc

They always hide under - power and water

THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS RUBBISH FOR THE MOST PART!!

most of them think the higher their price the higher their ratings, they dont want to be looked ast as being too cheap

Even small hotels that should cater for travellers charge like crazy!!

ireke:
I think this is one reason why the officers will rather drive your vehicle to the station.I really sympathize with the family of the deceased.

On the other hand, however, I often feel like running down some of these urchins especially when they surprise me on interstate roads asking for radio permits and all other nonsense. By the way, I need some education on why I am supposed to pay for a car radio permit for a state I'm just passing through. That's some diversion but I'll appreciate some education in that regards.

naija!!

Hopefully they will come out with a better system of fining on the spot or seizing their license for a period of time
instead of always jumping in the car asking for bribe with no receipt

The deceased man was assigned to follow the arrested vehicle and the driver to the office to process his arrest

read the article very well,

is it the Ghanaian government destroying Glo billboards or competitors or disgruntled Ghanaians who don't like Nigerians?

South African companies entering Nigeria probably don't this petty complaint when their generators get stolen or their cables vandalized in Nigeria, When DSTV's license was wrestled away with the help of Nweke Junior for the benefit of a Nigerian company I'm sure we enjoyed it

He said the interview for the successful ones would be conducted in the state by the Civil Service Commission in collaboration with the technical committee with detailed briefing by consultants. He expressed shock that in an examination of 19,000 graduates only 13 could scored above 80 per cent, adding that the situation on ground spoke volumes on the state of education in Imo State.

so basically the Commissioner is telling the world his government and the previous Govt have failed in terms of education


so what incentives do those 13 get for passing with the original pass mark? quota-system re-defined

graduate programmes are usually advertised with a prospectus telling applicants what.how.when.who the programme is for, they also insert their contact details for further information. HR department can also send out information regarding their programmes

Hurray Jonathan has released money for our salary

Also in his remark, Kwaji, said the
arrears, from 2003, accumulated
due to poor funding, a porous data
base and administrative lapses, but

substantially addressed.

@Omo alata:

Take them to the country side, and make them see more natural stuffs. Especially the villages around. They'll love it. This is because I think they'll be bored seeing what they are used to abroad.
Show them wetin they never see! Drive them around the ghetto areas like Mushin, A.J etc and tell them stories of how things got that bad. Show them people suffering and tell them why they must not neglect or abuse the privilege they have.
Take them around beaches. You can as well fly them to other parts of the country like Obudu ranch and spend some few days there, using the opportunity to tour Ancient and modern Calabar. Visit museums and tell them stories about structures. You can also take them to Abeokuta to see the "Olumo" rocks

good idea but depending on the age of the kids; might also backfire- they'll be scared for life or until they are older!!

one year on any pictures to show or dem don abadon am already like akwa ibom 'international' airport

Hotstepper:
yes giving birth to your child will automatically make him/her a Canadian. However, its free to give birth if you are a Canadian citizen, PR or Refugee with a Health Card, if not, you are looking at from 15,000CAD,

hi hottie

What happens if the pregnant woman is not eligible for free healthcare and she is due to give birth and she doesnt have 15k? is teh baby held as ransome or something?

Acidosis:
why should they go on strike? Are there no police officers in the town

of course there are police officers in teh town, just unfortunate they were probably the ones behind these attacks, if you consider the very low amount they get from ekiti/ondo resident through roadblocks they upped the ante and went for the full monty!!

well the list up there has been very refreshing hasnt it?

isnt this like making Jim Ovia the Special Adviser on Banking and Financial Services

_{and what is happening to Prof's power plant it was scheduled for 2008}

Oboma1:
I learnt there was this agreement the airline had with the state government; that the government will pick the bill for the remaining seats not paid for by passengers. The state government later reneged in the agreement based on the fact that, the airline on very many occasion, had full house (all seats paid for by passengers). The airline did not find it funny. That lead to suspension of their services to that route.

Currently, Dana air now ply that route. I want to believe, there is more to this agreement. If indeed, the state was supposed to pay for seats not paid for by passengers, why is the airline still claiming money for seats paid for? If the state agreed to be giving the airline some grants to make up for seats not paid for, and the risk of flying their latest aircrafts to this dangerous airspace (for now), why are they now reneging? Is this not jealousy on the part of the state government? Is this not greed on the part of the carrier? So many questions begging for answers!.

chei see government business sense o, taxpayers money for a private company

So how is the international airport doing traffic wise

So where do lagosians take their kids during teh weekend, easter holiday and so on apart from the beach

I heard FUNTOPIA is cool
