PoliticsRe: 15-Year-Old Used Rail Coaches Are "Good Enough" - Fashola by ektbear: 12:18am On Oct 18, 2011
DaLover:
hey, i'not saying it is bad to get the coaches, in fact I actually think it the best choice given the conditions and alternatives immidiately available,

I just saying the we have to make consistent judgements all the time,
just imagin what your response would have been if you saw an article titled.

"Gej to import 15 year old trains"

you know what your response would have been.
It isn't all of GEJs policies that I oppose. Only the bad ones.

DaLover:
15 year old coaches are god because it is fashola and his PPP bringing them, if it was GEJ or Rochas or Rotimi, then it would be a problem.
Sometimes the level of hypocrisy I see here is astonishing.

let me keep walking like johnny walker,
Has nothing to do with Fashola or PPP. Remember the old saying, "Cut your coat according to your cloth." That is what is being done here. Just purely common sense.

What is the story behind this toro/tolo stuff?

Are there some groups who cannot pronounce "R"?

You may as well blame lung cancer in Iowa and poverty in Somalia on Tinubu.

Or how are you even remotely trying Tinubu to Bola Ige?

Heh.

I am not holding my breath waiting for you to solve the security problems in your zone.

And quite evidently, nether are the Australians or Americans.

Christ will return around the same time grin

Regarding wealth, I thought we already hashed this out in the other thread?
PoliticsRe: Usa Warns Her Citizens Not To Travel To Nigeria by ektbear: 8:08pm On Oct 17, 2011
Australia sef says Borno haram, Abia haram, Anambra haram grin grin wink

Oh, and regarding what the Americans know about Nigeria?

Well, given the way they seem to have all the Nigerian politicians squealing to them like pigs and sharing gossip like market women, probably they know as much as anyone does about the country.
PoliticsRe: Usa Warns Her Citizens Not To Travel To Nigeria by ektbear: 8:04pm On Oct 17, 2011
Nchara, you can post 1000 articles about crime if you like.

But no matter what you do, the judgement of both Australia and the US about the safety of our respective regions stands grin

At any rate, they are only confirming what any honest individual who isn't interested in lying to himself will say.

We all know what the most hospitable and safe part of the country is for investment, trade, and business. Hehe

I dey laff oooo grin grin grin

Where is Nchara to address this matter grin tongue
PoliticsRe: Usa Warns Her Citizens Not To Travel To Nigeria by ektbear: 6:28pm On Oct 17, 2011
They didn't even say "Travel with caution."

Australia flat out says, [size=18pt]don't go to Anambra, Abia, or Borno.[/size]

Anambra haram, Abia haram, Borno haram, says Australia.

Damn!

Cannot be good for tourism or foreign investment, eh? grin

May those states one day become as safe as the SW zone is.

In Jesus name, amen

LMAO!

From Nchara's link:

https://i54.tinypic.com/9qv79c.png

So Abia and Anambra are as unsafe as Borno (with Boko Haram) and Plateau?

Na wa o

So even Australia believes those places are no go? grin tongue wink cheesy smiley

South-East: Kindly forward those articles to the US embassy. Maybe they will cause them to change their travel warning. Somehow i doubt it grin tongue wink smiley

Oletunow:
The whole of the last paragraph was dedicated to the Lagos State alone. Lagos is prominently mentioned in the alert and given more space and details than the other States, so I do not know what you guys are saying,
Correct. But there was no warning against travelling to Lagos. In fact:

U.S. citizens should contact the U.S. Embassy in Abuja or the[size=18pt] U.S. Consulate General in Lagos for up-to-date information on any restrictions.

What even makes me laugh is people are calling this "colonial agenda."

Is it colonial agenda to keep your citizens safe and away from dangerous hot spots?

You may disagree with their judgement about which places are safe or not, but surely they are entitled to offer guidance and protection to their citizens.

Anyway, kudos to Fashola and the people of the SW more generally for maintaining an island of safety and peace in this uncertain and dangerous country and continent.

Your efforts may not be recognized by other Nigerians, but clearly there are bigger fish who have observed and commend you wink
