NAIJASOM:
Honestly, the thing is very annoying. If your city doesnt have a masterplan then you are not a city. You are just a land with some houses and shops and factories all over the place
Most if not all the Eastern cities have a master plan.

But in most cases it has been bastardized.

However, not only are most still redeemable, cities can be completely replanned and rebuilt.

It just takes vision and disciple.

Mbadinuju is the worst governor in the history of Anambra state.

Politics › Re: House Of Reps Move To Ban Hiace Buses Over Bayelsa Auto Crash by eaglechild: 11:09am On Feb 22, 2015
Cargoed:
Why is it that road construction companies do not have proper traffic management arrangements for roads under construction. You are travelling on an express road doing the legal 90km/hr suddenly you see a trailer coming in the opposite direction. No warning that you are on a diverted road.

So the legislators should ask construction companies how many road cones do they have. Just go and inspect them.
No proper number of diverted road signs.
No responsible checks in calming down diverted traffic with traffic cones.
In fact they will divert you to use a dangerous bend that only God can save you at even a simple 60km/hr speed........
Please they should look into this.
Why is it also difficult for road construction contracts to not include reflectors on the roads. From 6pm it becomes very dark I mean by 7pm you can hardly see 100meters ahead of you so reflectors on our high ways will aid driving and prevent lots of accident.
Also on many trailers passing many road safety officers there is no reflector at their back when they brake down ....u can not really see them at the side or even centre of the road.
So legislators I think u have a lot to worry about.
The hiace buses if banned what is ur alternative.
I like your concerns and they are very genuine ones.

Poor or absent diversion during road construction is a very dangerous practice.

Some of the proposed alternative to the Hiace, and similar vehicles will include

The Nissan NV passenger series similar to ford transit.
I have seen some transport companies using it.

The companies can also be made to improve the safety of the hiace and similar vehicles unless it should be limited to intracity use.

I don't know why this so hard for most Nigerians to comprehend, he's pension alone is a whooping 24mills

I'm guessing you've been with her on one of her shopping trips to Harrods to be so sure she shops there. Then this poverty mentality is alarming. An 18yr old with a nice job in the US can shop in Nordstrom or similar store, so I don't see how a full grown woman won't be able to shop, assuming its Harrods, without using her father's money.
Does the average immigrant UK student shop at Harrods?

Stop the self deceit.

His father claims to be poor.

owobokiri:
The way we shoot down good ideas sha. . Just read the posts above and you would think that the House of Reps are just blind but the opposite is the case. That thing is nothing but a flying coffin. This is a very very good idea. Hiace buses and their equivalents should be used to carry goods ONLY! THERE IS NO OTHER SERIOUS COUNTRY IN THE WORLD WHRE SMALL HIACE BUSES ARE USED FOR LONG DISTANCE JOURNEYS. It is only here. That bus is mainly used to carry goods. Not to pack humans like sardines from Lagos to Aba. That bus has been responsible for thousands of deaths on Nigerian roads. I lost one of my friends who flew into this country and tried going to the east from Lagos with that brand called "Hummer". They perished somewhre near Ore. It should be banned totally. It is small. It is speedy. And the small interior forces passengers into very uncomfortable positions leaving them with no room to negotiate an escape once there is an impact.. For inter city travels, we should either be using the 'luxurious' buses, or the one we call "civilians" or something like ANAMCOs "14-14". . They are a bit bigger, less speedy, more comfortable and more amenable to Nigerian roads.
Bless you brother.

I was beginning to think everyone was blind.

Toyota Hiace is not used in most first world world country for commercial intercity commutes because it falls far below the required safety standards.

It is simply a wake up call for toyota to make it a safer vehicle.

Because it is Zahra Buhari it is no longer acceptable criticism abi.

If it was Zahra Jonathan buying designer wears from Harrods while his father claims to be poor and taking loans to survive will you be saying the same thing?

Buhari's children live in absolute luxury a far cry from what he wants us to believe he portrays.

Buhari is meeting Tony Blair and Jonathan is re commissioning old power plants and meeting Tinubu's market women. It is clear who is CONFIDENT of winning.
Meeting Blair undecided

Meanwhile commissioning power plants is more important than a meaningless cursory picture.

“There is a feeling of anxiety among Western governments about Buhari, about what he represents and who his backers are,”


They have every reason to be anxious, every rational person will be disturbed at how a tyrant has suddenly turned saint.


Meanwhile this is an indirect way of the West saying they just do not trust Buhari and will stick with Jonathan.

No one want another "ISIL" in this case with full backing of the government.
