Hmmm...this race will live long in our memories ...drama everywhere. You don't see oyinbos this excited often, I tell ya. Like you said, totally crazy and to imagine that despite lewis driving his worst ever race....he still somehow by luck managed to extend his lead over rosberg Nico must be devastated....as in.....wetin I fit do to finish this guy Ricardo was trouble for everyone, even though he lost out to Kyatt or what's his name sef? I believe that if not for the crash, he would have beaten Sebastein Vettel.

Do you think we are about to witness the rebirth of the Ferraris btw Also it was Bernie ecclestons thirty years on top plus the bianchi memorial and the presence of his family made this a truly special one..... in the meantime, more pics...vids are difficult to upload here. Don't know how to do it!!

Make I go look for yeboe pipul trouble o jare..... ...they always make me laff......after which I will start preparing for Spa in Belgium in four or so weeks......

I was almost swearing at the TV when Lewis went off lol. The race was really good.
With Ferrari I think it's too early to say. Mercedes are too dominant at the moment. How come you are going to all these wonderful races at once. Spa is my favourite circuit.

Lol. This is good.

I laugh whenever I see yorubas and Igbos have a go at each other. Your tribes men might betray you one day while God might use someone from another tribe to help you. It's always a good idea to remain open minded. If anything, thread with caution but don't be close minded

The statistics says otherwise. The first sentence lost it. Bye

Because husband come and go but your children will always remain your children, so the saying goes in my ends. The world is fvcked up so whatever.

Yawn... another body shaming

By far the most intellectual leader to come out of this country. I am sucker for braino.

Bobby brown has to take most of the blame I am afraid. He singlehandedly led Witney astray, the ripple effect of which we are seeing now.

What a waste. Sort of put everything into perspective.

Babatundetinubu:
The best race I have ever been to.......totally speechless. Excitement from the beginning to the end. Who said F1 was dead....this race answers it all....dollyak...trust you watched this

The race was crazy. Indeed I did. The race couldn't have gone worse for Lewis and nico today, but overall a great race for the neutrals. I can only imagine how much fun you must have had.

Any long term economic plans? Everything is about oil and gas in Nigeria

Best news so far from the east. This is definitely going to be a world class standards

I like this message. Off the face of recent marginalisation and neglect it would be criminal for any Igbo poltician to cheat his/her people. I know it's hard when most of your proceeds end up in the northern region, nevertheless, Politicians must make Igbo land work for her citizens.

What's the point of mining gold when the locals are not going to benefit from such project. Most of the proceeds will end up in the north as usual.

abagoro:
We can make our home have high disposable income by spending most of the money we earn in diaspora at home. The problem with Igbos is they spend most of their income wherever they live.

Actually Igbos send the most money to their respective states in Nigeria. Igbos have been leading for a while now. Apart from lagos, Enugu and Anambra receives the most capital investment from Nigerians living abroad. This is why Enugu and Anambra are leading in the SE.

Akalia:
I like your level of knowledge on this subject matter, seems you are another space exploration enthusiaste as me. we should be friends if you don't mind.

I don't mind of course.

Lovesdaisied:
Ah ok. All good.

I am hoping Imo state government would get their acts together and start pushing Anambra. We need a healthy competition.

investnow2013:
Anambra is one of the richest states in Nigeria. Anambra is the richest state in the South East. Anambra state parades many of the big time businessmen and women in Nigeria. Anambra parades the highest class of intellectuals in the South East and South South. Anambra state is among the few cash-driven states in Nigeria. Anambra per capita income is one of the highest in the country. Most of the celebrated leaders in the East of the Niger come from Anambra state. In Anambra state wealth is almost distributed house to house. The economy of Onitsha is bigger than that of some states in Nigeria. Nnewi economy is bigger than that of some states in Nigeria. The economy of Awka, Igboukwu, Ekwulobia and Awka axis beats the economy of some states in Nigeria.

Anambra business men and women alone almost own 40% prime properties in Abuja and Lagos on a conservative estimate. School of thoughts says that if Anambra is not good Igboland can never be. Anambra is the strong room of Igboland, the intellectual power house of Igboland and the pride of Igbo nation, and even Nigeria.

This is the more reason why every Igbo sons and daughters must have interest in what goes on in Anambra state. This is because what goes on in Anambra directly or indirectly affects what happens in Igboland.

Anambra state is therefore critical to what happens in Igboland in terms of development, whether political, social or economic.

I agree to this narrative, but for some reason the IGR doesn't reflect the wealth of the state at all. The IGR from Onitsha alone is enough to shoot it up to second behind lagos state. So, I believe there is a huge potential if the governor can create a proper tax collecting system.

Lovesdaisied:
Sorry to stalk your posts....but I just noticed that you are part Igbo and part Yoruba.

Is your igbo side from Anambra?

Imo state.

Then for streets.

I hope some of you guys will show this to the governor.

I would like to see nice tiles like this in some of the expensive houses in Anambra. I hate the rubbish inter locking blocks most people are using.
For communities or houses.

Dollyak

More pics for you. It may please you to know that Jules Bianchi number has been permanently retired in his honour and every driver in tomorrow's race will be #jules forever....

First one is me holding my ticket......tomorrow will be explosive. Rosberg will be pushing hammertime all the way but never write off the ferraris...

I am super jealous . What a better way to celebrate than with a pole from Lewis eh? Btw, was your seat located in the grandstand?

My opinion is that Anambra is punching way above her weight. This is even more so when you consider her small federal allocation/budget compared to most states like Rivers, akwa ibom, kano(most unproductive major state) etc with 3 times (Akwa ibom) her budget. This is why Nigeria needs to practice fiscal federalism. Really impress with what I am hearing so far.

iRyan:
do u live in enugu

lol... Naa. A bit far away from there. Ask the guy where enugu came from lol.

4Play:
If the CBN outrightly refuses to supply foreign exchange to many importers, reserves will go up but the downside is that the Naira's value will plummet. That is essentially what we have seen as US dollars become scarce. http://www.punchng.com/business/money/cbn-adjusts-rate-as-naira-falls-to-244/

The accumulation of foreign reserves at the expense of the Naira's value is not new. Here is a quote from Wikipedia in respect of the Sani Abacha erahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sani_Abacha. Was this because the Abacha regime was not corrupt? No. What happened to the Naira whilst all these reserves were accumulated? Naira went from 22 Naira to a $1 in 1993 to 84 Naira to $1 in 1998. https://www.nairaland.com/498412/nigeria-exchange-rates-dollar-history.

The true test of whether Buhari's anti-corruption measures are working will be a repatriation of stolen wealth to nation's coffers. We won't have to read between the lines as any refunded loot should be made public.

Thanks for this insight.

Omotolu:
...we need not apportion blames and successes,ma'am. Let's have a one united and developed Nigeria...

Indeed. I agree.

kokoA:
and why was cbn not doing this before Buhari came in?

I think we need to look at the timing and the circumstance before giving the credit to buhari. How much is buhari riding the wave of time and how much is this down to his influence? I think the truth is probably in the middle.

Omotolu:
...what matter the most is the leakage stops. I smell PDP in you....

No, I don't support any party Sir. I just like to call a spade a spade.

The foreign reserve point is a bit misleading. I don't think the credit should be given to buhari who doesn't have any influence on cbn. Efforts to plug leakages and the forex demand management are solely down to cbn.

ruggedtimi:
What if another planet doesnt need oxygen for life to exist.

That is also plausible.
