The flyover in Kano, Nigeria was the previous record holder. No where as 'clean' as this one btw

Nice. just 3 years

That flyover in Kano looks hideously over built no symmetry at all

CEO of Masters Energy Group,Uche Ogah,has handed over a church he built for Onuaku community in Uturu.Handing over the church,he said...

'The handover/dedication of Our Lords Cathedral Church, Onuaku, Uturu, Abia state. Built for the community by the CEO of Masters Energy Group, the owner of the largest manufacturing and industrial complex in the east of Niger, the largest employer of labour in Igboland, the merchant of kindness, Lord's own humble servant; Uchechukwu Sampson Ogah.

This is part of my vows to my heavenly father who found me worthy to be his vessel. What you see here is just a tiny part of what lies ahead, though the future maybe tough but it is very surmountable because God is my strength. Until you understand what God has done for me, you won't understand my relationship with him. I'm not here for vain glory but let all the glory and honor be ascribed unto my father in heaven'

It was an adventurous moment today, 5th November, 2016 as a motor sport exercise was carried out for the forthcoming Eleko Motor Race, which is billed to hold in December 17th, 2016.

The exercise took place at a secret open spot around Lekki-Epe axis, with an entertaining hill-climb challenge between hosts of Motorsport enthusiasts.

The Eleko Motor-race has continued to dazzle the world, as the last six editions have created a positive rave and reviews around the Nigeria Automotive industry. In furtherance, the objective of today’s exercise was to sustain the momentum already garnered.

Nigeria's largest airline Arik Air plans to nearly double its fleet to 52 planes within 10 years and has already ordered some of them from Boeing, a source at the company said on Monday.


Most of the carrier's existing fleet are Boeing planes and the source, who did not wish to be identified, said the airline would buy most of the new planes from the U.S. planemaker. The source did not say how many had already been ordered or the value of the purchases.

<sub>Privately owned Arik Air needs more planes as it aims to add international routes and increase services, including daily flights to New York, to offset a slowdown at home and bring in more hard currency.

It is also seeking new investors to help it grow and has said it wants to raise up to $1 billion through a private share placement next year and a possible initial public offering (IPO).

Founded a decade ago and now west Africa's biggest carrier by passenger numbers, Arik Air has appointed advisers for the share placement and potential IPO in Lagos, with a secondary listing in London.</sub>

"We hope to maintain our market leadership and our growth strategy involving substantially increasing our fleet to 52 aircrafts by 2025," Managing Director Chris Ndulue said on Monday at a briefing in Lagos to mark the carrier's 10 years of operations.

"We plan to ... put our footprint in Europe, Asia and Latin America and the Middle East, and this requires additional aircraft," he said.

Arik Air's home market has been hit by falling demand as a currency crisis in Africa's top economy deepens, due in part to the oil price slump. United and Iberia both stopped services to Nigeria this year and Emirates and Kenya Airways have announced plans to suspend flights to Nigeria's capital Abuja by next month.

Ndulue said Arik Air would also look at various funding options from international banks despite dollar shortages and the economic recession at home, which had affected businesses.

The carrier currently has a fleet of 28 aircraft, mostly Boeings but also three Airbus planes and nine Bombardier aircraft.

New routes and services would help the airline generate foreign currency.

ziddy:
Abuse me as much as you wish, but rest assured that the rest of the country will soon be on to all you crooked mallams. . . .

look you started abuse. i mentioned the person in charge of monetary policies being largely to blame..I mean a cbn whose policies are driven by black marketers ..whats the point of all the phds and executive training when you are bowing to these so called cattle herders..

The government really needs to stop this habit of elevating for bank CEOs to CBN. they'll be dipping in and out of the cookie jar. answering to some unknown saboteurs behind the scenes

ziddy:
Emefiele is a man of straw. Keep your head firmly buried in the sand though. . . It's classic 'mallam' strategy

We have a full team stabbing about in the dark. but hey let's blame the mallams for it's easier that way. bozo

ziddy:
This is the most brazen iteration of the forex round-tripping scam so far in the history of this country. And with official sanction too.

Banks are taking dollar from Nigerians in diaspora at official rate, they sell to BDCs (at an undisclosed premium) who turn around and put it on the streets at so-called parallel market rate. What exactly is the premium paid to banks by the BDCs? I think citizens deserve to know.

And what do banks do with the dollars wired into their offshore accounts by the money transfer agencies, since it's obvious that any physical cash they sell to BDCs is sourced from the CBN? This opaque system looks like it was set up by the mallamocracy around Buhari, in order to feed their fellow mallams running the BDCs. The North continues to take the rest of us all for a ride. . .

Didnt know Emefiele was also a Mallam...the way we excuse incompetence is beyond belief

Nigerian banks are just too lazy! Cant borrow to the real sector, cant be trusted to fund long term agricultural projects, just rely on government deposit until TSA showed them up...

soberdrunk:
The addiction to attention and fame these days is "worrisome"! You have a 'near death' experience and the first thing you do is to arrange for your pictures to be taken very close to the scene and still in harms way.................
