What happened to the coastal railway connecting Lagos to niger delta region, terminating in calabar and a section linking benin to onitsha. I would have expected that work on the project is already ongoing by now. That to me is more economically viable.

With the upswing of economic activities in Edo State on the back of the far-reaching reforms of the Governor Godwin Obaseki-led administration, two airlines, Max Air and Azman Air, have commenced operations on the Benin route, increasing the number of airlines operating in the state to five.

This is coming as Aero Contractors commenced operations on the route barely a month ago, citing heavy passenger traffic on the axis.

The Benin route has experienced increased passenger traffic in the wake of opening up of the business space by the Governor Godwin Obaseki-led administration, which has resulted in a lot of business and tourist visits to the state.

The state government also contributed to facility upgrade at the Benin Airport in partnership with the Federal Government, which led to the installation of Night Landing Equipment, among others.

The inaugural Max Air flight landed at the Benin Airport at about 5.05pm on November 26, 2019. The aircraft was marked No. 5N-DNB, with 78 passengers on board.

A Protocol Officer of the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), identified as Tonia, said Azman Airline will commence operations on December 1, after conclusion of modalities for smooth flight operation at the Airport.

She disclosed that Max Air, which has already commenced operations on the Benin-Abuja route, is scheduled to airlift passengers on Mondays and Thursday, noting that the two flights would be at about 3pm.

The Edo State Commissioner for Arts, Culture, Tourism and Diaspora Affairs, Hon. Osaze Osemwengie-Ero, said the Benin Airport is becoming busier as the state government is developing the business sector, which has led to the influx of tourists and investors.

According to him, “Governor Godwin Obaseki has invested a lot in the Benin Airport. It is one of the few airports that has night landing facility in the country. We are here to receive the inaugural flight of Max Air and by December 1, we are expecting another airline to commence operations in Benin, which will bring the number of airlines operating at the Benin Beni Airport to 5.”

He added, “Two weeks before the National Festival of Arts and Culture (NAFEST), Aero Contractors came into Benin. Today, Max Air has resumed operations. The Governor is bringing more airlines to Benin not just only Abuja and Lagos.”

He said the state government is working towards having tourists and investors spending the night in Benin such that the last flight comes into Benin by 11.00pm, while the first flight leaves by 6.00am.

The Captain of the Max Air flight, Captain Kola Sawyerr, said it was a smooth and pleasant journey, noting that the Benin Airport is well equipped to handle many passengers.

Hundreds of buffaloes have drowned in a river on the border between Botswana and Namibia.

Early investigations suggest the herd was being chased by lions and ran into the river, say Botswana authorities.

A local lodge owner told the BBC that it looks like the buffaloes then got stuck because the bank on the other side of the river was too high and that they panicked and stampeded.

He has never heard of such a large group of buffaloes drowning before.

The authorities in Botswana estimate that roughly 400 buffaloes died.

People living in the area collected the buffaloes and took them home to eat.

The river flows through the Chobe National Park, a major tourist attraction known for its huge numbers of elephants, giraffe, sable and buffalo.
Mr Micheletti told the BBC that he heard the lions roaring a lot on Tuesday night. When he went down to the river on Wednesday morning he saw hundreds of dead buffaloes.

Simone Micheletti, who owns a lodge on the Namibian side of the river, said that the herd was unusually large - at roughly 1,000 buffaloes.

Mr Micheletti told the BBC that he heard the lions roaring a lot on Tuesday night. When he went down to the river on Wednesday morning he saw hundreds of dead buffaloes.

He added that it was cloudy on Tuesday night so he suspects the clouds blocked the moonlight, meaning the buffaloes couldn't see.

Bad market

The Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, on Monday, stopped Multichoice Nigeria Limited from proceeding with its decision to increase DSTV subscription tariff.
The court, in a ruling by Justice Nnamdi Dimgba, issued the restraining order based on a suit that was lodged by the Consumer Protection Council, CPC.

CPC had in a public interest suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/894/18, applied for an interim injunction restraining Multichoice Nigeria or its agents and representatives from continuing the implementation of any increase in subscription rates or price review policy imposing increased charges and costs on its customers, pending the determination of the motion on notice before the court.

The Council further persuaded the court to accelerate hearing of the matter.

In a nine-paragraph affidavit that was attached to the suit, CPC, maintained that it has the constitutional responsibility to protect the welfare and interest of consumers in Nigeria.

It told the court that it had in the exercise of its statutory mandate, conducted an investigation into DSTV’s compliance with a directive it gave on February 16, 2016, following series of petitions it received on alleged unfairness, arbitrariness and excessiveness of pricing and billing systems by the cable service provider.

It said it was also reviewing other issues relating to whether DSTV‘s business practices and specific conducts were in violation of the law and rights of consumers in Nigeria.

Ishilove:
People say Edo girls fly at day time but just ignore them.

Edo people are generally easygoing people. They don't make trouble, don't find trouble, don't give trouble, unambitious and have not contributed anything meaningful to the growth and development of the country

People also claim the headquarters of witchcraft is in Edoland (first class azeh ) and their women often knock off their wealthy husbands in order to inherit his riches. Whether this is true or not, I am in no position to confirm or refute. Once again, IGNORE THEM.

They do not demand for an arm and leg during the marriage processes, and unlike certain parts of Nigeria, you will not need to break your bank to marry one of theirs. You will find that they will make most agreeable in-laws.

However, If you are a religious person, pray to God for guidance before settling down with your partner because love, good and evil does not know race, ethnicity or gender. With God, you can never go wrong

I don't know you... But I know you are a FOOL.

Okay oooo we don hear

Here’s a story of a Nigerian Lady identified as Mary, who said ‘No’ to her boyfriend of three years when he popped the question.

She says she wasn’t ready, and even after giving her boyfriend the ‘please don’t do this’ look when he was about to go on his knees, he still went ahead and popped the question.

Now she’s regretting that she broke his heart, and wants him to come back so she can say ‘Yes’ to his marriage proposal.

Read her below:

“My name is Mary, I heartlessly said ‘No’ to my boyfriend of three years a month ago, embarrassing him before his friends, my friends and some few family members because I thought I wasn’t ready.

I really wasn’t expecting the proposal, he totally caught me offguard on my birthday and I was scared, I gave him all the looks of ‘please don’t do this’ when he dropped on his knees and brought out the ring, but he went ahead to propose.

I said ‘No’, I broke his heart! Every night since then, I keep seeing his eyes as I snatched my fingers from his grasp and mouthed the word ‘No’ repeatedly.

He expected me to jump for joy, scream and dance or even cry for joy but wasn’t expecting the response he got.

I love David, I really do, but I just wasn’t ready for the proposal thing plus I somehow lost it that night and got scared.

David (31) has refused to talk to me, he travelled immediately and won’t get in touch. I have tried to apologize and explain things, but he is not reading my messages. I can’t call him!

I only try through the social media but he is not reading them!

I am sorry, I love him, I want to say ‘Yes’… How do I go about this, I heard he’s gone to South Africa to cool off after the blow I dealt him.

Help me, I am 24… I would rather marry David now than wait for another man.”

Na waoo

Emmit Walker took to Facebook to narrate his shocking encounter with a racist white woman who couldn’t comprehend how he could afford a first class ticket and tried to get him to leave the line. Even after he politely replied her, she tried to justify herself by saying the ticket was probably paid by for an organisation. See his reply to her below.

When a slay queen wants to eat anything to make the guy spend... There goes the consequence!

It is a shame that everything bad and unsuccessful is associated with Benin.


Benin city i hail oooo!

This man was sighted in Asaba

In a new chat with Sunday Scoop, the singer said all the mistakes made were during his younger years and he has greatly learnt from them.

He said;

“I do not like controversies. I was only a victim of controversies. All that I have done in the past that made me controversial were mistakes anyone could commit. I am still paying the price for my past. I did certain things I can never do again. I was a young boy, who was just having fun and enjoying music. My past still haunts me as I speak to you, as I am being judged for those actions. I have done things I am not proud of.”

On photos of him smoking hemp, Terry said that life is now in his past as he can no longer be caught doing such.

He added,

“I am now a scapegoat all because I represented the streets and I was not afraid to show it. I sacrificed myself for the new generation of artistes. All I was being criticised for are those things artistes do freely now and no one talks about them.”
“I have many regrets, which I take as lessons in a way. If I had known better, I wouldn’t have done certain things.
“But I do not think what I sing or say determines who I am. One day, Nigerians will realise that art is different from reality. I made my mother love Patience Ozokwor because she had the impression that she was a wicked woman because of her roles in movies. I made my father love many musicians too. I made them understand that what they were doing was an art.
“Sooner than later, Nigerians will understand that the all the crazy things I do are just for the art; I am an actor. I am yet to do most of the things the new artistes do in their videos, yet people still see me as the most terrible person. In other countries, nobody makes an issue out of those things,” he said

Wonderful...

I went to Genesis Hotels through Exodus
road. On the way, i saw Leviticus
recording the Numbers of people at
Deuteronomy, while Joshua was waiting
at the beautiful gate for Judges to see
Ruth calling loudly “Samuel,Samuel” .
At a stage, the, first and second Kings of
Chronicles were coming to visit Ezra,
Nehemiah and Esther for the misfortune
of Job their brother. Then they noticed
that Mr. Psalms was teaching his
children Proverbs concerning
Ecclesiastes and Songs of Solomon.
This coincided with the period that
Isaiah and Jeremiah were engaged in
Lamentation for Ezekiel and Daniel their
friend. By that time, Amos and Obadiah
were not around. Three days later,
Hosea, Joel and Jonah traveled in the
same ship with Micah and Nahum to
Jerusalem . Habakkuk then
visited Zephaniah who introduced him to
Haggai a friend of Zechariah whose
cousin is Malachi.
Immediately after the old tradition,
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
got involved in Acts with the Romans
who were behaving like the Corinthians,
who were also always at loggerhead with
the Galatians.
At that time too, the Ephesians realizing
that the Philippians were close to the
Colossians, suggested to the Thessalonians that they should
first of all see Timothy who had gone to
the house of Titus to teach Philemon his younger brother how
to read and write in Hebrew.
On hearing this, James asked Peter to
explain to him how the three Johns have
disclosed to Jude the Revelation of my journey.
