Which was prompted by our I comment on post as we have lots of understanding in common, along the line we became very free and comfortable with each other.

I was so captivated by his sense of wisdom and maturity that I seek advice from him when I want to make a certain descission .

A had an issue with a certain group member by February that I had to involve him and the group admin... The matter was settled and it was that case that brought us more close, we started talking frequently, both on chat and video calls... But that doesn't mean we were dating.. cus he doesn't believe in dating before marriage neither do I...
All this while we were yet to meet but it feels like we both wake up together every morning.

We planned lots of things together which includes setting up a puttery farm for me to be looking after for the meantime until he show up... We were still on the estimate when he had issue with his business so I told him let us pause the plan for now while we keep hoping and praying for the settlement of the issue he have...

I am not a lady who enjoy staying idle as am still working hard trying to build a good future for myself and I was really going through a lot but have no Kobo with me even to say for my medical bill while I was seriously sick, I told him I want to look for a job I will be managing penting till the case is settled and we are able to establish the business... He agreed on a condition that it should be around my state or Local govt.. Which I need to go to town and pay for house rent but I have no money as of that time cus I have been home throughout the pantry farm plan...

A have a sister in Lagos whom I can stay with, get a job while I wait for a miracle... So I told him but he got angry saying we are planning and am planning another thing... This was April, and the private doctor that treated me was on my neck to pay him... He knows all this I needed to work, he said I should cancel the trip and send him proof which I gladly did, my sister was and, infant we still not in good terms till date... because she already got me a job but what pain me a s that the guy stopped talking to me, not picking my call... For about 2weeks, I was totally heartbroken.. I couldn't understand what I did wrongh... Please house help me out

You guys are always happy to celebrate any negative news from South West as if you have forgotten that a lot of your people live in South West too

The Ondo State Police Command, on Monday, confirmed the release of a commercial driver, Mr Felix Akinde, by his abductors.

Akinde, a member of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, was kidnapped last week by unknown gunmen in Ita-Ogbolu on the Akure-Ado Ekiti Road, headquarters of the Akure North Local Government Area of the state, while travelling to Akure from Ekiti State to pick passengers.

The hoodlums demanded N5m ransom for his release but the amount was later reduced to N2m after negotiation.

It was gathered that the victim was set free on Saturday after an undisclosed amount was paid to his abductors as ransom.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Femi Joseph, confirmed the development but said the command was not aware that any ransom was paid.

He added that the command had not got the details of how the victim was set free as of the time of speaking to our correspondent.

Joseph stated, “I can confirm that the victim has been released, but we don’t have the details of his release, because after he was set free, he called to inform us.


“We asked him to come to the command headquarters to give us the details but he said he wanted to go and meet his boss first, and since then, he has not shown up.”


On the ransom paid, the PPRO said, “We have not seen him to know the details; we cannot say anything on whether ransom was paid or not. All I can say is that he has been released.”

Lagos State Government on Tuesday resumed the construction of the ten-lane Lagos-Badagry Expressway ten years after its commencement.

Performing the flag-off, the Deputy Governor of the state, Dr Kadri Obafemi Hamzat, stated that the return to the road not only marks the fulfillment of a promise made during a recent visit on June 2, 2019, to the people of the State by the Sanwo-Olu Administration but is also designed to bring relief to commuters who experience hardship daily on the road.


Speaking at the site office of the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC), contractors to the project, the Deputy Governor noted that the Sanwo-Olu administration would honour all the promises made to Lagosians.

He further stated that the project covers specifically the Agboju to Trade Fair segment as well as the rehabilitation of the Eric Moore – Mile 2 stretch.

Hamzat said, “We must obey the law, citizens co-operation is critical to what successes we will be able to record during this tenure. We must also monitor the project and report progress and observations to us.”


Hamzat further commended the co-operation of the Federal Government as both the State and Federal Agencies will be present along the road up to the Seme border.

He explained that Lagos State is handling Eric Moore to Agboju while FERMA will do four-lane maintenance to Agbara while the Federal Government has awarded Agbara to Seme as a six-lane Highway.

He said the State Government will deploy Taskforce to clean up the area and ensure a free flow of traffic.


It should be recalled that the notion to expand the Lagos-Badagry Expressway, a major gateway connecting Nigeria and other neighbouring West African countries was conceptualized in 2009 by the Babatunde Raji Fashola administration to ease traffic in the region and upgrade the infrastructure from four (4) lane into ten (10) lane dual carriage.

That's only what your head could think of

Bankrupt Oyo State is better than Barren Sad East

Countries within the West African sub-region will be able to use a single currency from January 2020

The currency which is called ECO was adopted by the Authority of ECOWAS Heads of State and Government on Saturday in Nigeria’s capital Abuja.

The West African leaders endorsed the currency at their 55th Ordinary Session and approved a road map towards the currency’s issuance in January 2020.

There roadmap is to ensure that all member countries meet three primary criteria for the adoption of the currency.

The criteria for adoption includes member countries having a budget deficit of not more than 3%; average annual inflation of less than 10% with a long-term goal of not more than 5% by 2019.


Member countries were also expected to have gross reserves that can finance at least three months of imports.

The other convergence criteria that have been adopted by ECOWAS are public debt or Gross Domestic Product of not more than 70%.

There is also the issue of central banks financing budget deficit not more than 10% of previous year’s tax revenue, and nominal exchange rate variation of plus or minus 10%.

A communiqué by Nigeria’s Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mustapha Suleiman said that the regional leaders instructed the ECOWAS Commission to work in collaboration with West African Monetary Agency.


The commission is also expected to work with West African Monetary Institute and all central banks to settle on a symbol for the single currency.

Meanwhile, the ECOWAS Chairman President Issoufou Mahamadou said that the revised roadmap does not affect the date for the issuance of the single currency in January 2020.

He said “We have not changed that but we will continue with assessment between now and then.

“We are of the view that countries that are ready will launch the single currency and countries that are not yet ready will join the programme as they comply with all six convergence criteria,” he added.

ECOWAS was set up in 1975 and has a combined population of 385 million.


It comprises Benin, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone and Togo.

Eight of these countries use one currency called the CFA franc. Those are Benin, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Mali, Niger, Senegal, and Togo.

The decision to adopt one currency is similar to that of the European Union to adopt a single currency called Euro.

Welcome development

Congratulation, everyone know say Badoo na Baba

GMbuharii:
All of you are all foooolls.

You are all a disgrace to manhood.

The idiot naira Marley is one of the biggest fooolll I have ever seen. I pity your parents.

Everybody should petition the authorities to ban this dance and any,every music associated with it.

But people like you support Lil Wayne and all other Gangsta US artistes that always rap about Gun, Pussy and Drugs

They are welcome

martowskin1:
welcome to reality.... bro i was in Rwanda few weeks back.... just to a have a quiet time and think for my next phase of action for 2nd half of 2019....

i was amazed with the way investors are trooping into the country from all over the world.... trying to established businesses there....

i know we are better than them... but for how long.... other african nations are making huge progress and we are moving behind in all aspect..

i told my self... i cant invest anything in nigeria again, am done... is time to start looking outside

even if it is to open a little technical school in one of this small africa nation is better than nigeria

And when they come for your Business later, you will start crying like those Nigerians in South Africa and Ghana


If you are a Nigerian and you are not investing in Nigeria, You are also part of the problems

Nigeria still remain one of the country with the best economy in Africa


Don't cry foul when the citizens of the country you invest in come for your head in the future

Welcome development

Amitez:
Initial gra-gra done end. Reality setting in.

How are your governors doing in your shithole states?


Have you demand accountability from Ikpeazu and the rest ?


Nigeria will never move forward with people like you guys

Amitez:
Always finding ways to defend mediocrity.

Dude i am not defending the Government or whatever and the Government should do their job but what i am speaking against is the habit of calling Nigeria names and cursing Nigeria on Social Media.


Calling Nigeria all sort of names and cursing the entire nation online wouldn't turn Nigeria to Dubai.


Every country have Issues but you don't see the citizens cursing their country or calling it names they will rather speak against the Government. That's how sane people behave

djon78:
5 million what? Abuja population is increasing massively. Abuja is more than 15 million people. The guy is right, Lagos is a glorified slum. Abuja is miles ahead, good roads, cleaner and organized city.
A lovely place to be.

The only difference between Abuja and Lagos is population and Abuja population is not up to 6 million talk less of 15

You guys just hate Lagos

Flood also happened in Abuja this year, Abuja is also a glorified slum

pickatyou:
I rebuke coming from a ruga tribe. Your points are valid but its no excuse for having a slum for a city. Places like China for don cast finish be that.

You are very bias for calling Lagos a slum

There are slums in every city that doesn't mean the whole city is a slums

These were pictures of flood and Bad roads in London but you don't see Londoners calling London Slums

You Nigerians just like exposing yourselves to negativity and disgracing yourselves, no wonder no Africa nation respect us


There is no perfect place anywhere

pickatyou:
Who dash Lagos 25 million you for just collect 150 million let the other state share the remaining. Kano is more populated than Lagos , apart from the fact it is dominated by otisi nala it is more organised than Lagos.

You are just ignorant

Lagos is the most populated city in Nigeria and Africa and it is also the smallest City in Nigeria, look at that burden


Kano is bigger than Lagos and also with less population

you must be a Northerner

Earthquake3:
When you have rejected Fulani and their Ruga

And so what ?


Just because we support Buhari government doesn't mean we are going to support all his actions.

As far as i am concern it not only Fulani and Hausa that are in the North

NigeriaIsDoomed:
You can type that again. Wish I could go back to Abuja, I have never felt at home in Lagos.
I miss the massive roads, fresh air, no traffic, fine estates, sane folks, gardens, suya, in Abuja.
Nigeria has no city apart from Abuja, other ones are glorified villages.

So you want to compare 25 million populated Lagos to just 5 million or less populated Abuja ?


Let Abuja have the same population of Lagos first before you speak

Flood too also happen in Abuja

You people just use every opportunity to talk bad about Lagos, let Abuja or any city have the same population of Lagos first

castrokins:
It has to be stressed that Lagos is a glorified slump

These were pictures of flood in London but you don't see Londoners calling london Slums

SLAP44:
Sanyo olu has spent over a month in Alausa but has done nothing to help Lagosians.

Yeah Sanwo should have turn Lagos to Dubai in just a month

Flood can happen in any city due to heavy down pour

WeSayNoToRuga:
IF RUGA SETTLEMENT DIES IN THE SOUTH WEST, IT WILL DIE TOGETHER WITH THE TINUBU(YORUBA) 2023 PRESIDENCY,

Yoruba is still going for the presidency and we shall have it

fineboynl:
then Yoruba should forget presidency. tinubu and osinbajo have bitting more they can chew.

Buhari does not meant well for Nigeria and will never handover to tinubu and osinbajo its earlier they wake up from their sleep.

there is no other word than expansionist they have been used and dump.

tinubu is more foolish than awolowo making the some mistake awolowo made.

Yoruba is still going for the Presidency and we shall have it

VulgarVulvas:
Is Femi Adesina not Yoruba?

Why is falana, Soyinka silent ?

Why are your obas silent?

Ohaneze, PANDEF and middle belt forum have spoken against this Ruga.

Afenifere has two factions, why have we not heard
from the Tinubu controlled faction?

Being silent doesn't mean they support it

Everything is not about making noise on social media
