Noone can dispute the fact that the title of Double-Chief Alhaji Barrister Dr. Primate Evangelist Admiral Chairman Architect Eze-Ndiigbo Me just has a nicer ring to it than simply "Mister" Me, therefore I will not relent until such time as I do finally amass these titles, and also begin to see real monetary returns commensurate with a Dignitary of Timber and Calipers that would be so honored.

Could someone please publish an inflation-adjusted itemized price list assignation to ALL chieftaincy titles that are available for purchase throughout each of Nigeria's 256 major tribal enclaves, so as to streamline this vital process for the discerning few who seek their rightful place in the sun.

Bamidele, who rolled out the measures adopted by the state Executive Council and Body of Permanent Secretaries, stressed that the move became necessary for all tiers of government to re-order their priorities in the light of prevalent world economic realities.

According to the commissioner, the following measures were directed to be taken by the state Executive Council:

*The immediate suspension of expenditure on frills such as gifts, T-Shirts, fez caps and other sundry public relations items.

*The suspension of non-essential international and local travels while travels considered essential must be approved by the governor.

*Running of all new foreign scholarships, although on going local and foreign scholarships will be maintained.

*Running costs of ministries, departments and agencies to be maintained at current levels, and

*The suspension of foreign medical treatment except in cases where medical treatment is not available locally.

on landing immigratin is quite cordial so have all your paper work ready.

If you haven't been to the tropics, t might be a little hot in the airport so wear light clothing on arrival.

The best places to party and have fun will be on the island.

The people are very friendly so ask if you need anything. Be polite but assertive as well.

Visit the palms shopping mall and the galleria. Best time to go would be on weekdays. Weekends are usually crowded.

Overall be safe and kick back and relax. The pace of life is much slower in Africa.

So it actually going to happen?Men that new site is incredibly far from the main business hubs of lagos,it is really going to affect the way businesses used to run.For example i stay in Surulere and could dash to Ikeja buy a part and still rush to the Island for some serious business but now i doubt that will ever be possible.We just have to hope for the best.

Fhemmmy:
I think it is a very bad idea.
Business needs a central location and Ikeja offers that.
Transportation within Lagos is not yet to the best, so how will people be able to go from VI to abule egba area to buy some NIC for their computer and be able to get back to the office?
I think if they wanna relocate, they could do that within Ikeja area but in a better development.

The strategy will be for the opposition parties to rally round each other and also to woo disgruntled PDP men into their fold, and speak with one voice.

This is not part of our culture at all

they'd soon start the enforcement of this through the use of taskforce.

This combination will help with the marginalised Northereners

Common Igbo brothers come up with proven leaders that will be able to stop Yaradua in his track come 2011. I seem to be struggling with with names that will be nationally accepted.

7. Local Goverment Chairman - this is another statrting point for most diasporan because it gives u grass root support. The rumenartion is not bad if u consider u have a police orderly, an official car, not a fantastic salary, but u can cut a lot of deals that can push up your income.

8. Deputy LG Chairman/ LG Legislature / Executive - starting point of any political career. A lot of diaspoarans will rather be contributing in the grass root level in Nigeria than contining the types of jobs they are doing abroad. The thinking behind this is if u have done your home work, u have set up small business in Naija, there is nothing wrong working as a legislature in the LG no matter the pay. Even LG Leg/Executive are previledge to cutting deals we all know that Nigerian's 3 rd tier of goverment hardly do anything and they get between 15 -20 % of the national cake.

Most Nigerians in disaporan beleive if you can get to any of these post listed above in Nigeria then you are half way to fulfilling your dream of even becoming the president of Nigeria, they say a journey of a 1000 miles start with the 1st step. And with the recent revalation that the political class spends 39% of the total budget on salaries, Nigerians in diaspora are of the view why exclude yourself from goverment's largesse
