Lagos airport is a disgrace to Nigeria. Early last year I landed in that airport from Europe - internationa wing. It was a complete disaster. And immediately on leaving the airport to my hotel, everything I saw was an eye sore. Everything was dirty and dustry and looking really really bad. But on landing in Abuja I saw a lot of difference. Imagine most foreigners visiting Nigeria lands at that same airport. It's an embarrassment to our image as a country. Lagos need to do better

Nigerian authorities are always victim blaming. The level of loose talking coming from government officials has gone to astronomical heights since the coming of APC. They have CAC and they're illegal miners - isn't that the height of contradiction? And now it's the fault of the affected neighborhood? As if we don't know nothing will happen to the miners even if the neighborhood reports ?

Righthussle:
Just to remove a southern President for a northerner to be President they used insecurity to make the country ungovernable and kicked GEJ out

To remove a southerner as FCT minister and bring in a northerner as FCT minister, they are using the same insecurity.

Tinubu is not a southern president. He's a Yoruba president - two different things

Smartguyboy:
I one usele$$ f👀l will come out tomorrow and promise the people it will get better ❤️‍🩹. I keep asking how?

Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor Caught with $10m cash and nothing happened to him wow.

You know a lot of these things happened because of Buhari right?

When Obama started scheming for Buhari to become president, the first thing he did was to start demonizing Jonathan and placed an arm embargo on Nigeria then started arming Book Haram. That was when Jonathan government started sourcing for arms in black market. A lot of weapons came from South Africa and lots of the mercenaries that fought Boko Haram in 2014 were South Africans. What was the need of Mercenaries to fight Boko Haram? After the series of meetings between Obama and the Northern governors and elites, they made up their mind to sacrifice the lives of their people and sabotage the fight against terrorism. The military hierarchy were no longer on the Nigerian side - they only cared about installing Buhari at the expense of their people's lives

TimeManager:
Mr Fagbemi is a silent ballistic, he's going after all the hidden loots. $8.9million is just a tip in an ocean but a good starting point, if names were revealed, there's no way Madam Ngozi Okonjo Iweala is escaping the hammer, how that woman run the economy aground was unpardonable. She met $20billion in the ECA but left us with $2billion and she was allowed to walk away just like that, with many singing her praises for doing nothing. That woman is keeping our yams, we must get them back.

-kiss the truth!

You are the dumbest I'm seeing on nairaland so far

We don't know why he was sacked so no comment

tonicyril:
its not about conversion to dollar or whatever sir..

It's about how many months do u have to work to save up for the flight fee..then and now

If you don't see the relationship between naira/dollars rate, then we shouldn't be having this conversation.

Do I need to educate you how dollar rate is what matters most in this situation where we don't know the year in question?

If this photo was taken at a time when minimum wage was worth 250 dollars, then automatically, the number of minimum wage that can afford that is automatically less than 10 at most. In those days, flight is not even up to 1000 dollars to new york

tonicyril:
Europe was also at the backyard then when a whopping 17k was paid for flight, even when minimum wage was below 120naira

How do you know what year the photo was taken? There was no time in history that our minimum wage was about $30 as it is now. So if anything, it was by far more affordable back in the days than it is now going by minimum wage because flights are priced in dollar.


Do you know that minimum wage used to be almost $300, $200, then $100 until less than $30 that we have now?

tonicyril:
So how much was the average salary and minimum wage then...find that out and let do the percentage if they are on par or not..

That is when we can know Wat to say

No be to dey show us 17k for flight as if 20k was the minimum wage then

What has minimum wage got to do with international flight? I paid about Euros 2,000 from Europe to Lagos. What % is the minimum wage to this if you convert to naira? Europe is just at the backyard compared to New York

Escobar was making millions of dollars per day selling drugs, destroying lives, committing murders and several other atrocities but he was a philanthropist that was feeding the poor and helping people in need - but that did not make him good

These were not the most powerful. Your list is a joke

Chibuzoripob:
Sanwo overdo sha.Dem for ⚠️/report him to his boss for necessary action

Just shut the fvck up

The north is bad but it's obvious the south broke the agreement first

I no see the Lagos universities selling degrees for 3 millions

Why dem no ban the Lagos universities selling degrees for 3 million?

No wonder they are always misbehaving. Depots and military trainings camp are not for training but for brainwashing of young minds - same way campus cults do. Imagine what is coming out from the mouth of a soldier. A governor can sack a soldier as long as his identity is known, he just need to take up his phone to place a call and that's the end. I have seen a commissioner of police sack a soldier working in the JTF because they disrespected him, he took all their information, forwarded it to the appropriate authorities and they were locked up for a long time then sacked.

NEIGHBOUR:
Ha!!! You had all these evidence and you never gave them out to Atiku or David Hundeyin? That wasn't fair at all.
Atiku would have been celebrating now because your evidence here are more authentic than that of Atiku and David put together!!! Next time!

David, Hundeyin and every sensible human being that followed the case already have these facts but the court wouldn't admit any evidence. SO what's your point?

SoNature:
You people are very funny. Chicago State University was asked to present the transcript of a student who finished in 1979...that's over 40 years ago! Guess what, they did!

Go to your university in Nigeria (that's if you attended one) and find out if they can even reproduce the transcript of a student who finished in 1990, let alone 1979. Dey play!

Even after the facts have been established, you're still lying.

The established facts is, Tinubu used faked SSCE and committed identity theft to gain admission into CSU. He attended the school for two years but when he was about to graduate, he eloped from the school and refused to take his English course which is a mandatory course. Without English, Tinubu didn't graduate from the university - that's especially why he had to forge their certificate.

Of course we all know why CSU stood and fought for him - he bought them. And we all know that case didn't become a subject of federal investigation which could have unraveled these facts for the Nigerian courts - because it's not in the interest of the US government. The American court did what they were asked to do, the representatives of the school lied on oath obviously

SoNature:
I like the way this government is taking this issue seriously.

If it was Buhari's tenure, nobody would even notice this scandal. Buhari was always shocked, surprised or didn't even know what was happening around him.

Dude was clueless and incompetent and still appointed people like him to run the government. I don't think anyone can be as bad as he was.

Keep deceiving yourself. Even the president bought his own certificate, bought the electoral commission, bought the supreme court and you think he's better than Buhari

It is a fact that Israel distributed fliers many times telling civilians their next target areas and advising them to evacuate and avoid being present in those conflict zones. IDF also sent text messages and called people on phone to leave danger zones ahead of time.
Again, Israel observed daily 4 hour truce to allow civilians to move from the north to south of Gaza. IDF forces also supplied fuel to the generator in Al-Shifa hospital when it ran out of fuel in order to save the lives of some babies in the ICU. Israel also allowed the evacuation of critically sick people from the hospitals to Egypt. All these are documented and showed live on Al-Jazeera. But you people are blind and deaf to all these because of your hatred for Israel.

I wonder if you guys think before you comment. Distribute fliers for civilians to evacuate their home within 24 hours. Evacuate their homes to where exactly? To the north that was also constantly being shelled or to the IDP camp that was also being shelled? How can Israel supply fuel to a hospital that they kept shelling and destroying are you that dumb? Even as much as Israel strives in propaganda, they have severally admitted that they're on an ethnic cleansing campaign to clear Gaza of Palestinians but you asslickers will keep defending them. Israel claimed they don't fight with any war rule and they'll kill and murder anything that breathes as their god always commands

mikeapollo:
If the civilians accommodate and cooperate with Hamas to attack Israel, then Israel has no other option than to bomb them! This is war and not a demonstration!
Hamas is hiding in civilian houses, schools, mosques, hospitals etc. and launching rockets to attack Israel. What do you expect Israel to do? To go and conduct mass interviews of the civilians before firing back at Hamas and those providing them with cover?
Israel has been doing the best possible by sending warnings and information to civilians to move away from their next target area and conflict zones.
You people only talk about Israel. When Hamas fire their rockets into Israel, do they separate children and women from the effect of the rockets? Do they discriminate between civilian and military targets?

That's your own business. I don't care what excuse you'll make for them but you guys should stop lying that they care about civilians. The original comment I responded to made a false claim and I rebutted it. All these your epistle are unnecessary unless you're talking to Israeli ass lickers that always make excuse for Israeli wickedness as much as they do for their incompetences

mikeapollo:
Ignorance galore!
How long did it take US to fight in Iraq?
Israel has proved to be a responsible country that cares for innocent civilians in this war
Israel is fighting people living amongst innocent civilians as shield.
Israel even had to announce each time their next point of action, and ask civilians to evacuate from conflict zones because they want to minimize casualty., thereby revealing their moves to the enemy.
They did this repeatedly, even to their own disadvantage.
Which country has ever done that in the history of warfare?

Israel care for innocent civilians and yet has killed more civilians by ratio in any war within the last century? You Israeli ass lickers are just so deluded

Israel Mossad are commandos but 3 months in, they're still unable to locate the Israeli hostages. Israel military and intelligence unit are by far the most overrated in the world

Even at that time, the slaughter was not even serious compared to from 2016 till date

LordBiden:
Which billionaire?
The same crypto that is dipping everyday with losses.

He only uses crypto as cover up for his main hustle,never trust an anambarian when it comes to money things.

In what planet is crypto dipping?

Which other nationalities do you have experience with? I can say this is not exclusively a Nigerian. If you go to Europe or America, you'll understand that majority of white people are just like the majority of us - nothing special. Only less than 1% of them are exceptional and the system helps them excel.

Why have not been able to institute a strong system as theirs is a talk for another day - but just keep in mind that it has a lot to do with us and also with them. For example, why was the West hellbent on having Buhari become president? I hope we've seen th effect of Buhari's presidency on Africa. A loss for Africa and a win for them. Hopefully, things will turn around someday

We know you guys just want to use it to target random Nigerian youths that are doing well , frustrate them and seize as much of their wealth as possible and share among yourselves. Only an idiot thinks EFCC cares about the politicians. They're obsessed about the youth because that's who they can randomly profile without probable cause and try to label and steal from.

There's been a lot of uproar lately and efcc just want their illegality of randomly breaking into people's house under the cover of the night to have a legal backing - unexplained wealth. They're even too incompetent and lazy to even do their investigation as that will limit the number of people they can randomly invade and violate.
