Konji is no respecter of race, school or location. The ting for don block all dem pipes and even suckaway finish.


Vaseline and cucumber crew, over to you.

Your association must "release" a press statement in reaction to this

Nice one there. But one more thing.......

They'll tell you they don't have change!

This is highly commendable! Not some bush allowance-seeking ajuwaya - if you know what I mean

By the way, this should be the primary function of the political office holders but what do they do? Share the money!

Shame on them all

Here's the amiable VP! Not some babariga-wearing executive ghost worker.

I really hope this man is having some rest. He's been very active for days now.
meanwhile, some ignoramuses will still not see anything good in a man carrying out his duties and functions.

Pls take it easy prof. We know you love Nigeria bit the journey is still faaaaaaarrrrr!!!

Lord have mercy! Another crime news from Ikorodu again! This same Ikorodu! Ambode, Ikorodu is under your watch o.

Don't worry madam. You are a kingdom citizen. The Lord shall fight for you and you shall hold your peace!

Nepa reach that house?

Let's have that of nairaland commenters. It will be an interesting piece

How many people agree with me?

Pictures please

Just added. Poor network tinz

Segun Oyeyiola, a student of Obafemi Awolowo University, in Ife, Osun State, Nigeria, has converted a Volkswagen Beetle, using mainly scrap parts donated by friends and family, into a $6000 wind and solar powered car. He describes his creation as “Nigeria’s future car.”

The reinvented vintage Beetle comes fitted with a giant solar panel on the roof—exploiting Nigeria’s abundance of sunlight—and a wind turbine under the hood that takes advantage of airflow while the car is in motion. Also, to ensure the car does not clasp under the added weight of the installed technologies, it comes with an extra-strong suspension system.

The car is still in the early stages of design, and still requires a lot of work to reach the optimal target (the batteries for the solar panel take four to five hours to charge). However, now that Segun has succeed in building a working prototype, he plans to take his final university exams and then get straight back to working on the eco-friendly car.

His concern for the environment has always been his motivation, this has helped him dedicate much of his time and resources to creating the automobile despite many critics labelling his pursuit ‘a waste of time’. “I wanted to reduce carbon dioxide emission[s] going to our atmosphere that lead to climate change or global warming which has become a new reality, with deleterious effect,” he said. “Seasonal cycles are disrupted, as are ecosystems; and agriculture, water needs and supply, and food production are all adversely affected.”

crowther15:
lol
it was forecasted even the issue was raised in national Assembly last month , they discussed many things buh they will never implement anything.........
one of problems we r facing in this country is poor implementation of polices
if u see the way talked about it that day on NTA u will tink our 36 states will never experienced flooding this yr..........

Chai! Chai! Chai!!!!!!!

These are the anti-citizens. Oh my God!
And so many ignorant citizens will not know this. They prefer to point accusing fingers in wrong directions. Can you imagine this?

My brother. I pray that a double of this flood will happen to these fraudsters and their families.

*anger mode*

kay29000:
Hmm! 20 houses flooded...1,000 homeless...does it mean an average of 50 people live in a house?

You go fear report naw!

Ha! I really pray this sad tale ends some day

I wish them all the best.

Just make sure you do your best to contribute towards nation building......... And not bank account building

This is serious!

On the other hand, we have a Nigerian Meteorological agency. Why can't the government partner with these guys to use weather forecasts to forestall all these disasters

Warnings would have been issued some weeks before any disaster happens in another country

Great work my VP!

It is good to see more of actions than words. This is commendable.

Not like the predecessor who played a good role being an executive ghost worker

Another sour news. Lord heal our land o

Lol. Desperado!

VIO? Vehicle no dey dey okay finish for their eyes

If he settles them. He would have gone free.

ogemdiicyprian2:

ufelove:
Hmmm... I remember this TV although ours was classic,it had a sliding door in front of the screen

Hmmm... I remember this TV although ours was classic,it had a sliding door in front of the screen**goodtimes**

Ours will take hours to come on and so we will switch it on for a long time before it displays what we call rainbow colour and NTA channel 10 will start with national anthem by 4pm

Chai. I don old o. I remember this too

How cruel you are!!!

Oh my goodness!!!

My vice chancellor of 1993 and 1994 before Prof. Kolawole took over.

I could remember his wife being the headmistress of the FUTA staff primary school.

This is so cruel and my alma mata is thrown into tears!

RIP sir

You have a valid point however I think Buhari has wasted almost three months without being able to appoint his Cabinet. Right from 30th March 2015 till date he has been aware he needs Cabinet to work with.

My brother, beyond that, I see desperate acts from corridor powers like those ones displayed among our legislathieves (I'm sure you've been following the story) and these same forces wants act on PMB too.

Asides that, it is not as easy as we think to get appoint men who are COMPETENT and CLEAN.

Despite the fact that I don't like the slow pace, I'm hopeful that it will yield positive results, better than ministers who took us backwards and deceived us with illusions

notoriousbabe:
honestly I don't know jare

Don't worry. You shall smile again.
Just be continuously notorious in doing good things

Eluwilussit:
If he were a rookie, then that would have been ok. Our president has been there before. He has been running and campaigning for this post since 2003. If he didn't have any plan or direction, why was he so eager to be our president?

A man doesn't give what he doesn't have. Jona couldn't and didn't. Buhari can't and will not. Until we start to put square pegs in square holes, and round pegs in round holes, we will eternally be going in circles. You don't need to be a proff to know that. We need to eschew tribalism, regionalism, nepotism, religious bigotry and all, to move ahead.

The right man for the right job. That's the only forward.

My brother, you just gave hit the nail on the head. The entire country is suffering some form of leadership crisis. Right from the executives to the the legislatives and this is due to the points you stated.

My brother, we have not learnt as a country. You know why? If another election is called on now (just if), our people will still use all the religious and tribal nonsense as factors.

So? Getting the right man for the job? That's more like imaginary to me for now. That's why I expressed my optimism.

Abi wetin man go do?

notoriousbabe:
I agree with you,but if by next week the ministerial list is not out,I will begin to have a doubt in his competency to rule this country. If person go take 1 year practice madness,how many years he wan take display am,I don dey tire for baba o

My brother, beyond his incompetence, I am already disappointed in APC who are not helping matters. They are really clueless.

As for baba, let's not be too quick to forget how we complained about the late Yar'adua. He made slow but steady progress. Let's just be optimistic or what else do you suggest we can do?
