Lol!
Pls this should be moved to jokes section.
I don laff tire.

A lot of people will end up drinking rat poison if Stella remains in office.
I advise all the aggrieved to buy theirs now before it becomes scarce and expensive.

Punch, since corruption bothers you so much, please follow it up with an editorial on the N17billion FFK scandal a sum that is almost 1000 times more.

[quote author=sweet_gala]that makes no sense geographically. Why would you fly over kano into Enugu and then ferry over 50% of your passengers back towards kano. Do you have knowledge of logistics. They need to organise connection flights from Enugu , PH , ondo state, Benin towards kano,ABJ or Lagos.[/quote]We are talking about planes not paper kites here.
So all flights should stop at Kano then instead of Lagos going by your Jakande Geography.

la furia: There is no record of arm smuggling through international airline, and who will do that will there is the port as alternative.
Since the easterners are known to smuggle drugs/cocaine through airport, direct flight to Enugu isn't the right (does this make sense to you?)
Even the aviation minister can't tell Qatar airways in their face that the reason is to stop arm smuggling.
One last question, don't people smuggle guns to the east?

The last time I checked the SWestwerners hold the world record for drug smuggling. (Most weed swallowed).
So Lagos, should have been shut down since.

I presented a genuine concern , if you choose to view it through bigoted lenses, that is your biz.
As for the first sentence Google is your friend.

[quote author=sweet_gala]A misguided concern. You must be watching too much power rangers. We can't fail to organise[/quote]You must have been on planet pluto for you not to know that Boko Haram that just recently killed 19 motorists, Al Shabab that carried out the Kenyan mall attack, etc are all Al Qaeda linked African terror groups with ties to the middle east.

You may wish to bury your head in the sand and pretend it is not a problem, but the intelligence world is real.

speedyboi: Asa was just an example.
Abuja Peeps like MI. They also like Artists like Omawumi, waje, Tiwa Savage, Onyeka Onwenu, Banky W, Darey etc. And that's because they usually make music not noise! And to top it all, they usually come with live band to stage

The limit to which they like the likes of flavour, P-square, wizkid, Iyanya, Davido etc is just to dance to their music at the club or add them to playlist. But to go waste money to see them lip sync on stage? Hell Nah!







@the bolded, the show was held in dem lugbe, kubwa et Al...I guess? afterall...na abuja people dey call those places too. Cos I don't see people doing that. For this same abuja where people go stand up and go home if the artist no come stage on time? Or if the show is disorganized and started late? I don't think so!

U have started saying thrash.
Psquare and 2face will pull more crowd in Abuja than Asa or nneka.
This is Nigeria not Europe.
Get real.

Abuja is not in the moon, it is in Nigeria.

[quote author=sweet_gala]Yes a fair share of international airports, however remember that air travel is a business and if FG wants to extend a network country wide the demand need be provided to make it profitable for the airlines , they need to enable them through concessions.[/quote]Do you really believe, that with the spate of international terrorism going on, it is safe to allow regular direct flights by Qatar airlines to Kano?

I don't.
The earlier you realise it is a very genuine concern the better for you.

[quote author=sweet_gala]You fail to get the gist, and I doubt you are a successful business man.
You have to evaluate you product placement, and the demand and movement of commerce.

Let's ask the question what is the destination of a Qatar flight that originates in any part of Nigeria? Multiple destinations is the answer with stop-overs possibly(increasing the number of destinations)

You can not force a commercial airline who are in business to make profit to fly a jumbo jet to a destination where they would not be able to fill up the seats. They'll suddenly have low demand and high capacity, and then reverse in the other destination of choice.

What the aviation ministry need to do is enable qatar airlines team up with a local airline who would ferry Enugu passengers to kano airport and back.[/quote]Or better still Kano passengers to Enugu and back.

The three APC stooges.

The Kano State government says it is not aware that the application of the Qatar Airways had been rejected.
In a telephone interview, the Commissioner for Commerce, Industry and Cooperatives, Alhaji Danburam Abubakar Nuhu, said the government would react to it officially when the airline briefs it on the development.
According to him, there are no regular international flights in Kano at the moment.
“Kano remains the centre of business in the country. We are working hard to see that Ethiopia Air that is flying from Enugu comes here because the volume of business in Kano is higher than that of Enugu. A group recently rated Kano as second to Lagos in contributing to the country’s economy.
“The group, known as Renaissance Group, said Kano State contributes $10 billion annually to Nigeria’s economy after Lagos. You know aside from oil, Kano State is the second contributor to the GDP. Our textile market annually contributes N10 billion to the economy, Dawano market N20 billion,” he said.
But former Managing Director of the Nigerian Airways, Captain Mohammed Joji, said the Open Air Policy allows airlines to land anywhere in the country.
“The same policy was signed with USA in 2003 when Mrs. Kema Chikwe was Aviation Minister. The policy is not good to developing economies like ours. If you sign it, it will kill the economy of the county because they will not pay any commission for BASA,” he said in a phone interview

The same Kano state government that cried itself hoarse for Festus Odumegwu's removal because he suggested that Kano census figures were stretched to the point of being more populated than Lagos.

Yeah we all know they are good at extrapolating figures.

When their planes get blown up in Kano now.
Some oily folks will come out and start shouting that safety was not considered.
Now they are being offered safer options.
They better accept it.

They should keep off Boko territory unless they have a hidden agenda.
Note that all the airlines shouting for Kano route are middle eastern, very good move by the ministry.
We don't need an illegal Boko arms window.

For the second time in three years, the African city
of Luanda has been declared the most expensive city in the
world for expats by Mercer, a human resources consulting
firm.
While it's true that most of the Angolan capital's population
lives in poverty on the outskirts of the city, in the center,
Porsche Cayennes share the road with Cadillac Escalades
and the latest Range Rovers.
Hugo Boss makes such a killing here that it opened a
second store within walking distance of the first.
For those not familiar with Luanda, however, the ranking
may come as a surprise.
Tokyo (which took top spot in Mercer's survey last year)
makes sense as the world's most expensive expat city.
So might Moscow or New York.
But Luanda?

BBC reported 19.
very sad indeed.
These senseless killings must stop

Good Samaritan act.
This is something OBJ could never have done.

originbm: ive long been disillusioned.so you are correct.The only Yoruba man i respect is wole soyinka.And of course he is not just a yoruba man.he is a generational gift to mankind.

u come here to argue that you guys fought a war.which war?chicanery worked for u so kudos.but that is where it stops.it will never work again,because we all know that our enemies are not the hausas.its the yorubas.

i salute all the puritanical and nationalistic igbos,that seek for the head of oduah.you will only end up like zik who was so immersed with nationalism and do goodism that his people became orphans.while he was being pan african,awo was plotting his strategy.

Those that do not know their history r not only condemned to repeat it,but to remain a slave to it.

They keep exposing their hypocrisy time after time.
It is crystal clear now.
Any one who fails to hear is like the proverbial grasshopper killed by okpoko bird.

Yoruba people and agbero unions is like amala and ewedu, inseparable.
Thank goodness he wasn't assassinated.

Fela was a fearless activist.

This is one aspect of his life I sure don't agree with.

Stale news.
Nothing new.

Killing in any form of any tribe by any tribe is evil.
And should be condemned.

It is inhuman to go about shouting praises because human blood was shed.
Some of us went to church today, but we come here to praise the barbaric acts of cold blooded murder in retaliation for farm land.

I know I troll sometimes but NOT with human lives.

This act should be condemned.

Danhumprey: I was just joking. You didn't saw the sarcasm in my statement?

He didn't SAW it.

OBJ could never have done this.

FreeGlobe: would you like a brain? lunatic. You want to compare security levels of both nations. fool

geez!
That must have hurt.

Annie2gud: To hair is human..to forgive is design.

Yoruba accent has also affected your writing.
To hair is human, To scales is fish.
Jakande education at its best.

GEJ till we 2019
Hope some peeps won't start shouting for Ezeoba to resign for purchasing bullet proof ship.

The Yoruba management of associated airline should be sued for manslaughter for flying a plane that is in a questionable state.
The minister should expedite this action.

Jonathan is not sacking Stella.
The earlier you people should get it into your bigoted skulls the better.

No smoke without fire.
Mustapha Attah search yourself.

The state of prisons in Nigeria is pitiable.
I just pity the 534 Nigerian prisoners that are to be deported from the UK.

Pls nobody should scold the OP too much.
You know SW people are averse to seeing any form of cleaning equipment like a mop and bucket,
They prefer things left in their dirty "natural" state.
Imagine how a pig will look at you if you approach it with a bucket of OMO water and sponge.

Orlando Owoh: Maybe Patrick Wilmot, the Jamaican sociologist, that once lectured in ABU, Zaria, before IBB deported him is also a Yoruba man. He said in a book, I can't remember the title, that the toilets of all the airports and some of the VCs in Nigeria don't function.
Igbo, grow up.

You are absolutely right, and that was during FFKU's tenure.
Now they are functional.

0lumide: OBJ is far ahead of other Nigerian presidents except Gowon and Buhari..

Yet he could not complete any of the power projects.
