the tory-lib-dem coalition is the majority and the lib-dem have decided not to challenge tory's immigration policy so even if they decide to take the debate to the house it will still pass, the fact that people voted tory despite their immigration policy albeit not in the majority is is sign that they are in agreement with their immigration policy amongst others.

the Lib Dems have only agreed to not to pursue the illegal amnesty policy, mind you most of those policies put forward by the Tories have not real figures, just soundbites that will actually attract the working class white voters! thier policies going forward will only sound tougher - in reality the NHS, City Banks, universities and social services will be lobbying for damage limitations on any drastic change

Kudos to the Govt though _{when did the construction start?}

I think this is the first time I'm seeing road markings on a newly constructed road that is being commissioned
and the constructors didnt leave the usual leftover sand/stones

But why so much fanfare over run of the mill projects.

Only God knows how much some ar.se hole charged
for canopies, aso ebi, renting crowds etcetera.

I suspect this bridge has been ready for some time
but it was not opened because they wanted to gain
as much political leverage from it as possible.

no tax payers money was used to rent crowds o!!
The people you see there are the entire members of the House of Assemly, neighbouring Local government Chairmen with their young girlfriends and all the Local councillors in lagos state, they had an afterparty with Dj Jimy Jatt on the Decks afterwards! gbori e!!!

Don't mind us. . . Everybody is an expert at dissing his country on Nairaland. . . We have the solution to all the problems in Naija, even the ones we don't know anything about . . . And the solution is . . . Diss the Government, complain about everything (most times for no good reason), and do nothing else.

its not a diss, think about it you will get more information about this from the Contractors website http://www.sstl.co.uk/Missions/Current_Projects  than the government's web page http://www.nasrda.net/index.html

Ikengawo:
so your saying this 100% sure there are no interviews or anything of the sort about this?


100%? or are you saying this cause you first heard about it on this iste and assumed, out of what appears to be stupidity, that this thread is the only thing in the world about it.

100% sure there was no visual interview everything points to a press release, I watch NTA and AIT everyday and none of them showed anything about this recent announcement, so yes the site like many otehr nigerian website carried the 'press release-m ind you they all read the same even the wording were that of the typical copy and paste official announcement by a govt agency

I emailed the NASRDA and it wasn't delivered, now they have only a beta website http://www.beta.nasrda.net/index.html

for an agency getting billions of naira a year, having a website where students and investors can get up-to-date information is not asking for much really

Thats what i'm thinking too

The next stage for kwara development would be to get more private investments especially medium sized manufacturers to invest- cheap labour, land and educated workforce who are jetting out as soon as they get their papers.

Ilorin/kwara can easily act as an outlet to Abuja if saraki leverage on his position in the FG setup to get the train working perhaps even link Ilorin to Ghana/West Africa

Den buy a phone wit both compatibily. Dats 3g n wifi eg e75 or omnia

E75 is too serious/business/flashy looking plus it's huge!

Any other Nokia or Sony Ericsson you can recommend. personally i would wait for the Nokia C6 but i don't know when its coming out

So Why 3G, is WiFi not good for browsing?

and say yes to who?

what/who are the other options in Ilorin?

What have they done, have they provided the much needed opposition or have they slowly integrated with the saraki clan only to fall out and start claiming dictatorship

I'd like to see a healthy opposition but peaceful government in Kwara

I have always wondered why dead bodies are shown like some sort of artefact

its bad enough seeing dead bodies on the streets of Lagos. . .


RIP yardy

kosovo:
the only thing i can say is that he was the best   President Nigeria ever had, Without him people like Mimiko, Oshiomoe etc wouldn't have gotten Justice . .
AND lots more, Yar Adua earned my Respect. . .  Adieu SIR  

and Soludo will be Governor, Lagos will be worse off, the militants would have taken over 6 states. . .

It was clear Yar Adua was very vengeful also. He was ready to use any means to settle scores with those he disliked . The treatment he meted out to Ribadu and El Rufai was condemnable.

Gbawe,

Yaradua never had issue with either of them, so i wonder where you 'vengeful' theory is coming from

In the process, I lost 2 Bravia tvs, and 8 speaker Sony music system, a 3 speaker Samsung, a video camera, a digital camera, an LG home theatre, a Philips DVD player, an LG video player, a Blackberry, two Motorolas and an LG mobile. They also carried away my electric gas cooker, fridge, and my seven piece leather sofa set. They also took the money which I had just withdrawn yesterday.

Bros why you come dey lie for us? which kind thief go carry you cherished seven piece leatehr sofa, you sure say no be the removal guy wey u employ make them come help you pack out for night so your landlord no go collect him rent?

person wey dey carry 4 phones up and down street no fit insure him house ?

these custom guys just dish out fake information every other week just to make themselves look relevant, no names, no pictures, how did he know the ammunitions were for elections or related to jos crisis? what's the name of the importer or destination?

Considering the have huge tarffic online, they should consider foreign products targetted at nigerian and even MNC in nigeria or africa, google ads will make it messy but it might still bring in some

Now the Cabal is gone, business will surely bounce back- all those dodgy bank CEOs threw money about back then- bankers award etc etc

You labelling him a biafran is enough to get him in trouble!! good thing is the election is over and it was a labour strong hold anyway

Now let me fire off those constituent letters on behalf of my brother if he doesn't respond chei!!

Dis Guy:

homeric

who are you guys competing against anway? JUTH Abuja FC

is there any Lagos team in the lower division, i think lagos needs a team in the top flight

maybe he is just mimicking you

there's mago mago going on with dat match in ibadan, they wanted t survive relegation so 1+1=3

cos! some coaching staffs were still on the court when the ball went in

two things

Its pretty obvious management in nigeria is pooor- staff are always complaining and are treated as slaves that dont need information just orders/command!

-workers in Nigeria are all about their money!! they complain about anything and everything actually i have never read complaints about tools, software, health and safety its all about money money how much this person is getting, how much that company is paying

no job satisfaction at all

He is looking for a party that will do all that for him,

Atiku went to AC with supporters, business supporters and political heavyweights and foot soldiers ready to switch alliance immediately there's a way

Buhari moves about with loyal supporters, political heavyweight, traditional rulers

Donald Duke skates about with his iPhone, International degree and supporters that wont vote! _{they'll set up facebook pages though its only 5 clicks afterall}

thats a spooof"!!! lmao

Depending on how the new party behaves, PDP can lose their big grip in the south,




_{otoks you dey try o, you blog is still going strong!!!}

the chaplain was not too happy that people went to kiss the chair Adeboye sat on when he stood up.

Thisday

Saw it coming,

what's the difference between AC, Labour and  Mega Party cant they all just come together instead of playing local champions in their backyard?

“I shall always be mindful to speak the truth of our circumstances and our condition,” he said.
Following Duke’s resignation from the PDP, the former governor has suddenly become a beautiful political bride with opposition parties including the Action Congress, Labour Party and the Mega Party Movement intensifying efforts and wooing him to join their respective parties.

It is not known which party Duke will finally pitch his tent with but it was reliably gathered that he would likely join the Labour Party where he hopes to build a “bottom-up grassroots movement to confront the 2011 presidential question.”
Duke was a two-term governor of Cross River State under the platform of PDP and played prominent roles in shaping the party during its teething stage.

However, in the last few years after leaving office, he has become highly disenchanted with goings-on within the party and has been quite critical of the way the party has managed its successes since the return to civil rule in 1999.
Duke’s major angst with the PDP is its unwritten agreement to zone and rotate the presidency between the North and South geo-political zones.

In 2006, his quest to become the party’s flag-bearer was truncated by the party’s last minute decision to zone the presidency to the North forcing him and others from the South to withdraw from the race.
His decision to again throw his hat into the ring is believed to be another chance to challenge the unconstitutional zoning arrangement given fillip by the chairman of the PDP, Vincent Ogbulafor who said the 2011 presidential slot will be retained by the North.

Although there is no official indication as to when he may officially declare his presidential ambition, it was authoritatively gathered that Duke has intensified surreptitious grassroot mobilisation across the country to prepare the grounds for the launch of his presidential ambition by the middle of the month.

With the 2011 general elections looming,  the former governor of Cross River State, Donald Duke has resigned from the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, preparatory for the launch of his much rumoured presidential campaign on the platform of another party.

Citing among other reasons for the decision, Duke said the PDP had become “dysfunctional, unable to articulate a road map and lead Nigerians on a clear and concise path to national renewal.”
In his resignation letter dated April 29 and addressed to the Cross River State chairman of the party, Duke said: “When in 1998, we came together and forged a vehicle destined (as we thought at the time) to carry forward our beloved country’s hopes and dreams, there was a sense of being on the cusp of something that would endure. That has not proved to be the case.”

He regretted that PDP rather than building a robust and people-oriented party, “what has endured has been a lack of commitment to the purpose and focus of the founding fathers of the party and our country, which has emasculated the PDP.”
Duke continued: “Faithfulness and favour have been dissipated by a seamless stream of internecine factional warfare.”
He acknowledged that with his departure from the party, he would be leaving behind friends, “many with whom I shared sincerity of purpose but, regrettably, no longer share commonality of purpose.
