Feel free to ones you find as well.

You two are giving flirting a bad name. . .

But seriously though, why are Fashola supporters so sensitive.

[quote author=tpia. link=topic=399374.msg5527728#msg5527728 date=1266365067]what is your definition of crumbs?

and you were the one shouting because I said N14 billion was chicken change when running a state like lagos? [/quote]I was actually referring to politicians in general.

But I can stretch it to apply to Fashola too. He might have done more
than his peers but it still pales when juxtaposed with the myriad of
problems that still plagues the state.

Oboma1:
Nobody is running Fashola down, but we just want people see Fashola just like every other governor in Nigeria. A typical Nigerianleader is corruption full. The only difference is that, Fashola decided to some more things in Lagos. That is all.

Point of correction, never say Fashola is the best governor ever in Lagos, because we all said the same thing, during Mobolaji Johnson's era, and later we praised Jakande's tenure for his then low-cost housing, and now Poultry-schools. He was GOD sent then. This people tried in their own capacity, but Fashola came with his own initiative and ideas.

The same is what was said about Donald Duke of Cross River state. People saw him as GOD-sent, yet he stole so much, but he left Cross River better for it. You cannot say, Donald Duke is the best ever in the history of that state. That is the greatest fallacy. The best is yet to come, because Brigadier U. J. Esuene did what even Donald Duke perhaps, may never have done, all through his 8 years. Ask people from that state, they will tell you. His legacy has even outlived him, even in death. Donald Duke, did his best, and I loved him for it. Go and see Cross River state today.

Well said bro, . . .

When I see all these political praise singers, writing hagiographies in honour of politicians, it beggars belief.

These people are not doing us a favour. They promise heaven and earth during their campaigns with one vision or another,
it is incumbent on us to hold them to task rather than settle for crumbs they inevitably pass our way.

Yeye boy. . .why you dey give urself heartache because of one common girl.

[quote author=tpia. link=topic=399374.msg5527268#msg5527268 date=1266359728]for a state like Lagos, N14 billion naira is chicken change and certainly not something every tom manliness and harry should start maligning people over anyhow.

How much do you think it costs to run a state like that?

Go to any rural state in Nigeria and see if N14 billion will cover the basics there.[/quote]Value is relative so we can go on forever. But I don't think
it is too much to ask to ask of an elected officer to account
for how public funds are spent.

[quote author=tpia. link=topic=399374.msg5527255#msg5527255 date=1266359581]so because N14 billion chicken change was paid in taxes, you now consider yourself qualified to sit down and start running mouth over how to run a state.

Ever heard of fiscal matters and do you see why I mentioned semi literate and half illiterate earlier?[/quote]You call 14 billion chicken change

While some of the Yoruba films are downright horrendous, many from even outside
the ''Yoruba end'' of Nollywood, will agree Tunde Kelani has made some of the better
films out of Nigeria. Better storyline, better attention to the technical side etc.

Ellyptical:
Nollywood is actually picking up. Its Yorubawood that has refused to pick up. They refuse to act in English language that will enable them sell to a broader market and generate more funds.

Considering how insecure and paranoid they are about their women, why do
they let strange men have a peep or even finger their women's ''sangwegwe''?

Hehehehe. . .make you beg me o. I get contacts for Wazobia FM.

hehehehe. . .If I talk now, this one go talk say I
dey victimise am.

Abeg, cut the poster some slack. Fashola has used the media expertly as well
to create this all conquering governor image, so he is fair game.

This will help us at least look closely at his work rather than swallow all the 'boli'
that is being peddled wholesale.

Plus diehard supporters plus detractors o. . .

Una no dey shame. Na old man wey don do im own,

No way a fully deregulated system can work in power if that means no government intervention.

Some degree of regulation will be needed to ensure global penetration of power lines as well as
prevent predatory pricing practices.
