I was about creating a thread on this same issue but seems I have been beaten to it. Those moving from the west to the south south,East and north, go through this same roundabout and vice versa. That overhead bridge is a disaster waiting to happen cos its already beginning to crack, in fact. Warri and its neighbouring towns have some of the dirtiest roads u can ever imagine, no proper drainage or waste disposal. Edwin Clark and his fellow thieves would tomorrow move to Abuja to go and represent their old stupid selves claiming to speak for Deltans because majority of the youths of the state are no different. Delta state is nothing short of a public disgrace putting into consideration how Akwa Ibom which I don't believe generates as much as it does has been developed. I'm a Deltan and I am ashamed of the state of affairs of my state.

Some civil servants salary, including promotion and annual increments.



₦200, 000 × 12Months = ₦2, 400, 000per annum


₦2, 400, 000 × 35years = ₦84, 000, 000


₦84m, if a civil servant decides to save his entire income for 35yrs without spending a dime.







State civil servants will earn far far less than this.



Some politicians will earn more than ₦84m in a year while serving just 4years in an office.

That Naya of a girl is damn ugly why

its not about which tribe rules Delta state any more but about good leadership.. I voted for Okowa because I believed it is fair for all ethnic group to be given an opportunity to govern but I am highly disappointed in Okowa leadership .. They are all the same looters.. And nothing more. I don't know why Deltans are cursed with bad leaders.Pls Deltans ensure you all try and avoid anything PDP.. Because nothing good will come out of anybody that will represent that party..

MONITZ:
To be sincere ,it's like Delta state has a plethora of bad leaders ,when Uduaghan was there people felt he was the worst that could befall any state not knowing that the successor would be worse off.With all the huge statutory allocations that the state gets there is still nothing to show for it,the only thing Delta leaders know is how to get a huge chunk of the cake when they get into power leaving pittances for the governed,personal aggrandizement and sycophancy ,just imagine the special adviser saying the governor would win easily a second term,something he knows would be pretty difficult if only he would tell himself the bitter truth bt he won't because he wants to keep his appointment,social amenities re at sub-zero level,most roads in th state re still riddled with pot-holes,so what do the citizens gain despite paying their taxes as at when due. Delta state has never had it this bad.

The most painful thing is that this Okowa served at most of the political rungs in the state in the past,as a CCC for his L.G.A,as commissioner,as a SSG,as a Senator and now as the governor ,so where is the wealth of experience that this man has garnered over these years at each level of his stewardship?He garnered zero experience absolutely..The man is simply a mistake for a governor... Deltans await him at the polls in 2019,let's see if he would be able to rig himself in,he shouldn't forget that he can only rig successfully in areas where he is popular and not in areas where they harbor a deep resentment towards him and is therefore least popular...Let him and his advisers continue to keep their heads in la-la land..

MONITZ:
I am for his non-return for a second term,what has he done to warrant another term?absolutely nothing.The guy is taking Deltans for a ride badly,if not for the agreement they had that all the ethnic groups in the state should have a shot and feel of that office, who would ve known Okowa? The only dividends of democracy he knows are to commission :Fuel stations,Shop-rite,patched roads and occasionally when he wants to up the ante, a second-hand transformer is presented to a street.Mtchew,And how did Wike save his ass?

Honestly, my brother, just don't bother, your fears are confirmed already. You can see some people already campaigning for them on this forum already. Worst still, we have been wired to depend on the two major political parties to provide these leaders. It only makes political sense for the parties to prioritise their interests over that of Nigerians. So, if we have a candidate that's willing to the bids of the party even if it's at the detriment of Nigerians and there's another that wants to serve Nigerians over the party. Who will be given the ticket? Your guess is as good as mine.

The thing is there are certain wrongs in the Nigerian foundation and no amount of building on a weak foundation would solve it.

Where are the resolutions of the Nigerian National Conference that the previous government spent huge amount of money to convey?

In fact...

Nevee:
"The budget must anchor on the implementation of #MadeInNigeria and it must be reflected in public procurement". I paraphrased.

The President drives a German Merecedes Benz (just one of the many exotics in the fleet), same with the Senate President and the news of the procurement of Toyota SUVs and Peugeot for Senators and MHRs respectively is still fresh in our minds while Innoson is probably still there, struggling to keep it's head above the waters. Can't you take a cue from America? They are trying to build a new official car for the President, they simply sent their specs to General Motors (an American company) to build.
If the Nigerian government is the only customer Innoson has, I stand to say it is enough for the business to thrive well (and we can do the rough arithmetic). These guys keep taking us for a ride and make Nigerians feel stupid.

I know Jonathan's government (like her predecessors) dealt Nigeria a great deal of monumental damage and this man came with so much initial "gra-gra" to fix things but even from his own end, nothing at all. All we see is a body language that reeks so much of ignorance and unconciousness. You'd expect little things (that aren't affected by "oil price" like this to be quickly fixed, at least, through leading by example but alas...

Surprisingly, some of us will still come here and make excuses for them, "Oh! They can't fix this because...". Damn! Things have fallen apart and the centre has long lost it's hold.

Plus, am I the only one that feels like the 2017 budget hasn't even been passed or implemented (lol!)?

This is a religious issue rather than a medical one. Both the Old and New Testaments clearly command us to abstain from blood. (Genesis 9:4; Leviticus 17:10; Deuteronomy 12:23; Acts 15:28, 29 ) Also, God views blood as representing life. (Leviticus 17:14 ) So we avoid taking blood not only in obedience to God but also out of respect for him as the Giver of life.

I believe the guy is a JW and true Christians need to respect people and the way they believe the word of God. Ofcourse there's a need for edification and correction in the body of Christ. the truth is any one believes it is a sin for him or her to undergo blood transfusion then so be it for him. But SIN means Satanic In Nature and it's what God abhores. The question is, is it really a sin? Does God refer to anything like blood transfusion. The answer is NO. Remember Jesus said let your yes be yes and no be NO, anything other than this is evil. The first area place God mentioned his disdain for blood-taking was Genesis 9:4....blood there of you SHALL NOT EAT. Leviticus 3:17, Leviticus 17:14 and 19:26 all point to the same. God in His infinite power made known afterwards from Lev 19:26 thru Deuteronomy 12:23 then Acts 15:20 that HE abhors defilement and idolatry when He started making Reference to those things with blood. GOD DID NOT SAY we should not help people's life medically or even lay down..(John 15:13 as Jesus did! after all He's the reason we are called Christians).

atoleybaba:
see rubbish wey u write. Go and Google u will see how people av died cos of unscreened blood even d one screened sef was later discovered that it is still infected

DavidEsq:
May I ask why u cldnt read it? Isn't reading the first step to understanding? I don't think u learned ur books the way u just advocated; that is, understanding or learning without reading

DavidEsq:
Pls read Acts 15:20, Leviticus 7:26

atoleybaba:
u guys ignorance makes it hard for u to think bawt how many people av died cos of blood transfusion. What u don't know shouldn't be too hard for u to ask and let jw give u proper answer. Av u ever asked why dy don't collect blood? Do u want me to tell u many story of people who has also received blood that has been infected and has led to death compared to those who av died not accepting blood? Do u know jw doctrine bawt blood has brought bawt d medical advancement of carrying out operation without transfusion blood? Do u even know what d Bible says bawt d use of blood? Finally question. Which will u do. Disobey God to live in this wicked world and lose everlasting life or obey God's command and die now but gain everlasting life? Think bawt that. That will help u know y jw refuses blood transfusion and stop being ignorant. Na how many condemned jw for not doing Xmas until recently when most of una eye don open say Xmas celebration isn't scriptural

sanpipita:
I'm hardly a religious person but JW are one the best and exemplary Christian denominations aside some of their beliefs.

This man and Leo Ogor deserve to be recalled. Leo ogor fenced his house closed and left water in the front. The drainage is not working. You can't pass there in the rainy season, you will drown. It's only this year that he started awarding some contracts to save his face after it was leaked that he haven't done anything since he joined the national asylum. Delta is Filled with bad leaders
