Changi Airport Singapore is the most beautiful airport on earth, it was built 6 year ago for 1.5 billion dollars yet Keyamo and APC want to renovate our tiny ugly airport for 500 million dollar ..the way we love to waste money ehhh

See distortion and manipulation of facts right in front of our eyes. Did Keyamo say this is going to be just a renovation?

"According to him, the facility will be stripped down to its structural carcass, including removal of the roof, before being redesigned and rebuilt to meet modern international standards. The work will affect both Wings D and E of the terminal."

Does this sound like a mere renovation to you? Look at the old control tower. Does it look like a safe place to control anything?

The banana being Aso Rock and the monkey being the ADC people.

People just ripping, but the economy spiralling down ward

Are you listening to yourself? The economy is spiraling downward while the stock market is doing well?
Why are some of you allergic to good news?

They complained Lagos to Calabar highway is waste of money, upgrading the busiest airport in Nigeria is also a waste of money.
Even if the government says ok, we will divert the money to build hospitals they will still complain.
Lagos State is building new hospitals here and there what are other states doing with their own revenue?
It's time we go back to true federalism and expose all these dubious politicians.
That airport is an eyesore, a disgrace. I don't know how any right thinking person could be ok with that.

In my political life, my word is my bond. When I entered politics in Anambra State, I made clear and measurable promises to the people: to improve education and healthcare, to open up rural areas through road construction, and to manage public funds with prudence. I fulfilled each of those promises without deviation. I did not swear by a shrine, nor have I been certified mentally unstable as a result of honouring my word.

In fact, I believe that service should be impactful,
not eternal.........PO.

Nice, what was the verdict of Anambra folks? He was accused of not paying doctors, accused of not conducting local government elections throughout his tenor. There are more accusations from real Anambra folks.

greatiyk4u:
This is based on your own capabilities
What you can't achieve in a year, someone can get it done in 3 months

Why is this so difficult for you Obidients to understand? He had eight years in Anambra to perform this miracle but what he gave the Anambra people was alcohol. No schools, no industries. The roads he built were all washed away before his successor came in!
I know this because the current governor of Anambra said it.

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
You must be joking.
You underestimate the powers of the Nigerian president with enough political will and a clear cut economic and security agenda.

Do you know how many bills awaiting presidential assent that would reverse the fortunes of this nation if signed into law?

Nigeria's problems are artificial, only waiting for a crazy president.

Very simplistic or even a pie in the sky way of looking at government. Developing a country is a gradual process. You can see the principle working clearly in Lagos.

DUTY:
see this metuselar, even if Tinubu is given 200 years, he won't deliver.

Go to the Lekki Free trade Zone, go to Eko Atlantic and Dangote refinery. Whatever you see there was a vision laid out by Tinubu when he was the governor of Lagos State.
Show us similar accomplishments of Obi in Anambra.

grandsuccess:


This one is using agbadorian yard stick of corruption to judge others.

He had eight years in Anambra to show us how it could be done but he failed......woefully.

Mrfixitt:
Only a an incompetent fellow thinks that a country like Nigeria can't experience turn around in 4 years. Not everyone will be a failure like Tinubu

Except the same guy couldn't do it eight years in Anambra.
He built no schools no industries other than a brewery and "saved" Anambra money in his father's bank.

Obi is a snake oil salesman. What he is promising is not deliverable in 4 years.
We have to be realistic and not get carried away by lies.

Ttalk:
Don't mind them, Lagos is building metrolane across the length and breath of Lagos, most bridges in the corridor of Mile 2 is recently built, Free trade zone is less than a decade, road dualisation and business stations are less than 10 years, tomorrow ndi developer would claim they are the one that develop Nigeria.
.
While at that, their region is left empty with no modern infrastructure, they collect huge allocation to cater for decreasing population but they can't still equip their boysquarter. Their focus is on SW with modern infrastructure develop by their state government, this is coverteous is embarrassing to sane minds

The Western Nigeria Television was taken over by the FG and became Nigerian Television, they talk as if we have not given more than we took from this fraudulent unitary system.

Mabuggi88:
So where are these five local government? In Ogun state?
The national stadium then was in Surulere, now tell me is Surulere among these local government you just mentioned? The national Airport then was in Ikeja now MMA, tell me is Ikeja among these local government you just mentioned?
Lagos Island was the headquarters and the whole of Lagos was all built up as capital, stop deceiving people. What will children be taught in schools? If they are asked the former Capitals of Nigeria, do you expect them to mention all those Local government areas you wrote up there? That's misleading and totally horrendous

The first modern stadium in the whole of west Africa was already standing in Ibadan. Onikan, older but smaller was already in Lagos as well.
Your regional government failed to build anything then, and they are still doing the same thing today.
Talking of skyscrapers, when Awolowo was building industrial estates in Apapa, Ilupeju, Ikeja and elsewhere what exactly was going on with your regional leaders?

fuckingAyaya:
The other day them use 36billion renovate ICC that cost less than 200million to build, today they want to use 712billlons to renovate an airport that was built with less than 250million and some 20k idiot's will come out to defend this reckless looting at the expense of their future. Tomorrow they will tell you Peter obi is not different, Now ask yourself this questions, will peter Obi spend 712billion to renovate something built with less than 250million? The funniest thing be say the looter fit Change the airport name to his name after Renovation. Man is so desperate for public validations not for governance. Everybody go get sense las las!

Peter Obi doesn't believe in building infrastructure, he said it himself.
He was going to magically develop the country without investing in infrastructure. The first person in history to ever develop a country in such a way.
What are schools and highways when you can have some chilled lager beer.

SmartPolician:
I saw these pictures on Sowore's Facebook page. That guy wants to give these looters a reason to budget trillions of naira for MMA rehabilitation. I fear who no fear Tinubu goons.

Don't you think we should leave it like that so nobody can use the renovation to enrich himself?
Also you can use it to attack the government for not being alive to it's responsibilities.

Arda1000:
Yoruba and respect shouldn’t be in the same sentence,Yoruba are cunning and crafty folks the worship you at your face and insult and lie at your back

Now I have to base my opinion of my own people on the views of some colonialists with history of selling black people to slavery?
Who should we lie to if not the folks who forcefully took your lands and made you bow down to their own kings?
I have read where some of them referred to some people as only good laborers.

gidgiddy:
If they didn't have Lagos, I don't know what mouth they would have had to talk

If Ironsi did not abort regionalism which I believe he did to stop the SW from leaving the rest of the country behind who knows what could have been.
Ibadan was the most important city in the SW then not even Lagos.

Arda1000:
Yoruba people I know their respect na eye service dem feet lie down for u make something come out but will back tongue you as soon as you are gone…. Eh no dey move me again if u like use your Agbada clean the main road I no send u.

Yoruba people are respectful not stupid. If someone prostate to greet you and want to use that as a leverage to run roughshod over him then you are setting yourself up for a big surprise.
Respect is reciprocal and I think Yoruba probably understand than a little more than others.

I was expecting something to make Epstein go away but a nuclear war is not what I was expecting.
Anyway, the Russians need to chill.

There are thousands of Nigerians born in the UK and they love Nigeria even more than many people living in Nigeria.
Let Kemi do whatever she think is necessary for her to be accepted enough to become the Prime Minister in the UK.
Sunak became the Prime Minister though and he didn't need to run down India.

Righteousness2:
Nonsense beer parlour talk that does not exist.

Listen!
GOD is a Zionist. You should be too!
 
“For the Lord has chosen Zion;
He has desired it for His dwelling place:
 “This is My resting place forever;
Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.”

(Psalm 132:13-14)

Religion fanatism is far more potent and addictive than any narcotic known to man.
You can easily become a heartless genocidal maniac if you are less discerning like many of our fake pastors.
The Bible has even been used to justify slavery and many heinous acts of man inhumanity to man.
God is indeed patient.

onuman:
The Comptoller was to be succeeded by an Igbo lady next on line. To avoid the lady, Tinubu had to extend the appointment of his tribesman whose tenure is about to expire. You got it?

Is it within his powers to do that or not or you are just unhappy because the Igbo lady had to wait?
