lyricalpontiff: U must be anti truth,I stay in ph and I know that the level of construction work in the state is at an all time high...if u hate Ameachi,I suggest u should gently commit sucide.

Really?? Did you just say an "all time high"??
There is absolutely nothing Amaechi is doing since this whole fracas started and this is in portharcourt oooo ... He is the governor of rivers state with 23 LGA's. It is sad cos nothing is going on. Despite the huge allocation.

What he had going for him was the works he did in his first tenure then you noticed even the opposition could not talk. But now ...

Jingo-OAU:
Some peeps on Nairaland can be so naïve. Nigerian Airspace is one of the most useless airspace in Africa, nay, the world. Up till date, so many aeroplanes still passed tru our airspace without the prior knowledge NAMA.

Nigeria is located in the heart of Africa, therefore, most airlines coming from other continents always prefer to pass tru our airspace as our route connects all other countries. Even with that, our Airspace still suffers from airline pirates reason being that for any aeroplane to pass tru Nigeria, they must pay a certain amount to NAMA, which as am speaking its not being done cos NAMA couldn't capture all the aeroplanes plying our airspace.

Total Radar Coverage Of Nigeria(TRACON) was deployed to do this job effectively, yet our airspace is still susceptible to illegal air pirates. Infact, as am typing this, Ghana still collects money on our behalf for every aeroplane dat flies across Nigeria's territorial seas in the atlantic ocean. How could Ghana be collecting the money on our airspace route which covers some nautical miles in the atlantic ocean?

Up till now, whenever an aircraft crashes, its always a problem to locate where the crash site is. And am very sure some of us would be supporting the Minister of Aviation because we are just novice when it comes to aviation. Our airspace is still porous as before. In as much as I wouldn't dispute the fact of TYLER, it is also a stated fact all those things I stated above

Dude.. did you read the article?? you should have said:

The International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) are so naive......

biafranqueen: I need a Visa to go to Nigeria from America so UK citizens just enter like that

Nope UK citizens also require visa to Nigeria. the article was referring to South Africa

ibrokola: See Nigerians fooling themselves! When did indigenously built 33-seater buss become 9.9 million? At most, it shouldn't cost more than N3 million

Geeeeseee... ok because it is indigenously built it should cost N3 million..--- hmmmm you sure are the wise one here...

and you say Nigerians are fooling themselves....
Do you know what a 33-seater bus is

Symphony007: you see why i said you should keep off this debate because the cracks in your understanding of it will become glaring.

Firstly, ameachi has not abandoned his responsibilities as governor despite all he is going through. I was surprised to see him lastv week in old port harcourt township inspectng the new intergrated cultural center under construction and some roads, what about your president who went nigerian children are languishing at home, he is busy calming nerves in his party so he can be president again 2015. How many meeting has he held with ASUU? How many meetings has he held with PDP governor, party leaders, etc..get the figures and know where his priorities lie.

Secondly the head of police in rivers state and every state is a commissioner, not DPO, and the reason he is disrespecting the governor is because he is a tool of the president. Even the strongest jonathan supporter here can attest to that fact.

Lol.. I can bet this guy has never been to Riverstate (in the last 4years).. Visit the state then say theses things again..

DICKtator: At a period that competition has overidden the Biggs brand and junk foods are becoming less attractive, that is when infamous brand are coming on board?

well, that is entrepreneurship/capitalism for y'all

mugu must pay

There is always a ready/available market!!!!

Anyhow you look at it.. Mr Bigss have a name sold in naija... All 'famous brand' need to do is rebrand ... Change logo and all.. It's easier to access the chains of restaurants Biggs already have than to start from the scratch building a name..

These are great entrepreneurs .. Trust me they no what they are doing...

Ryda: in partnership with "a chinese meter manufacturing company"


oMo see gobe...all ur home appliances go blow up one day.

Whatever device you used to post this turn the back and check where it was made in...

I am sure Gbawe will regret this thread for a long time....

When he opened this thread I think he intended to be promoting Lagos as the destination of foreign investments or something.. He definitely didn't see the other angle..

But it's really stupid: every Nigerian should be happy about this... But since it shows a little progress from GEJ. People are hating... They rather rejoice in bad news...

Okija_juju: Bad Market...




See Pikin wey for don become British citizen.. Then later when ehn grow, ehn go import ehn Mama & Papa enter..


Now that mumu Pikin go only get Green Passport..



_{Thank God say I send my wife go overseas early by road.. She dey 3 months pregnant & currently dey Libya.. In the next 3 months, she suppose don reach spain.. by 9 months, she go don land Yankee, so that my Pikin Prince Charles Okija Junior go be London Citizen..}

You don't become a British citizen by beeing Born in the UK you have to live there for a particular number of years also

take dat: Purveyor of outright lies and political fabrication.


Did the police inform the security details attached to Amaechi ahead, that the road leading to the main entrance of the Government House would be blocked? NO. Amaechi being the Chief executive and Chief security officer of the state, should have been informed ahead. The mere fact that no form of communication existed between the police and the security details attached to the Governor before he got to where he met the road block shows that the Police do(es) not accord him any respect or regard as the Chief Executive and Chief Security Officer of the State.

Guy did you look at the map at all?? that is not the main entrance, it is not even the back gate entrance route he usually follows... Amaechi definitely knew the road was blocked.... his aides definitely knew also.. even if you insist there was no form of communication.... his aides are on ground and their colleagues (which are police officers that blocked the road) will definitely tell them even informally...i am sure he insisted on taking that route.

Lets be real here the guy is just a trouble maker... just the caption of the news will tell you that...

Joyfullyme:
We know our man.....
He told us how they attacked Chidi Lloyd and now how they stopped him from entering the Government House.

God bless you for this... It is obvious Amaechi was just looking for attention: besides that is not his normal route he takes: those saying the CP should ensure any route he decides to pass is clear are the once that will still cry foul if there was a problem at the New PDP sec because i can bet a whole lot that Amaechi was actually going to the new sec

gabng: Yep.

Apart from the calabar woman other tiny details dey.

And wanting to post that picture about praying to Allah on his facebookwall.... Google has picture search.... Careful oooo... Even some jtf guyz might not like this and you'd be....

All in all sha... Nice job poster...

gabng: Yep.

Apart from the calabar woman other tiny details dey.

And wanting to post that picture about praying to Allah on his facebookwall.... Google has picture search.... Careful oooo... Even some jtf guyz might not like this and you'd be....

arcbabe: The US army should come and clean up this mess in nigeria,JTF,army or whatever security agent we are deceiving ourselves to have in nigeria cannot do the job. The president is just wasting billions of naira on this operation without any improvement. If shekau is dead why can't his body be shown so we will believe it. Boko haram is still killing people and the JTF are saying they are in control.

nkechi!!! Shey I told you not to leave the kitchen??
Has the US finished with the Taliban?? You think the US is after any country's good...

Oya go back to the kitchen NOW!!

movieland7: Lol. if the people their hands are clean, then they should fear nothing.

murutala Mohamed 'feared nothing' and didn't live to tell the story

why the heck is the story tied to GEJ's visit??

She is simply using what she has to get what she wants... After-all the thronging thing is it not a hot metal ??
The iron is not connected neither is it very hot

Technology always defies the norm ...

Sam xiu lee: exclusive for Aba metropolis when they didn't allow Lagos to use her own exclusively?my dear its going to be on the National grid or else every local govt will build their own power station.

That is one of the good things about the power reform .... Every local govt is free to build theirs now.... Me and you seff fit join money build our own...

mekaboy: Even though I am happy with the privatization of power, but my fear is all these companies taking loan to acquire these facilities, won't this affect the price of the electricity when they final start selling?
Because they will have to service the loan at the same time make profit, so Nigerians will pay for both the loans and the profit.

May GOD help the masses.

Better soup na money kill am...

You can't expect I have 24hour electricity without paying a price... Fear not though the price will drop with time just like Gsm

never knew i will say this but if this is true: it is definately :



#End time things

I know they say no permanent enemies ... Byt they also say OBJ never forgets...

I don't think he can ever work with Atiku.. In fact just because Atiku is there has spoilt the other factions chances

Solarpower: keep on gettin at the president. The power thirsty abokis wil surely bow. Mst of d govnors dnt want GEJ cuz they r cmpletng their '8yrs' reign as govnors and wil be relegated 2d bench once 2015 govt commences. They r scared GEJ wil lash dia asses afta d elections. Why do d Abokis thnk it is dia's to rule? And 4ur info, i live in PortHarcourt, 'AMAECHI HAS DONE NOTHING'. U can kum and c thngs 4urslf. Sentiments apart!

Bless you ... I was hailing Amaechi before but I returned to port harcourt after 2years...

He has actually done nothing in this second tenure... The mono rail is the highest scan on earth .... And he MUST go to jail for that... He has started paying people to buy loyalty something he didn't do in his first tenure saying. "He has no godfathers to pay" portharcourt has actually gone to the dogs

It's amazing that all of a sudden Atiku has become a saint....

nerodenero: Before US came public stating Osama Bin Laden has been killed, they had his corpse and many saw it. In fact, US buried him. Why would JTF come public saying Shekau MIGHT have died when there was no confirmation to that effect? JTF should accept blame for misleading Nigerians unnecessarily and apologize accordingly.

please who are the "many" that saw Osama's corpse

pDude: When they are supposed to scatter his head with bullets, they are flying him first class to Abuja.

Smh. People Deceiving People.

...well you have commented

My pilot decieved me... kaiii... I never knew they have already started allowing Private jets to land....we were waiting for the Ethopian airline to officially open the airport..
Anyways beeing second to land is not that bad... I should be entering from China tomorow...

Symphony007: and you think investors will come into a country as uncertain as nigeria to dump billions without substancial assurances that there will be a profit. It does'nt work like that dear. This country has the money to fund a high speed rail network from lagos to p.h and when investors see how much profit is being made, they will be in line to be partners in the next phase, lagos-kano and they will pay through their nose to own the existing lines. That is how you encourage investment in an uncertain environment. And that goes for everyother part of the nigerian economy.

I was watching a BBC documentary "why poverty" and they showed the nigerian minister for agriculture having a meeting with potential investors in our agric sector. When they finished and the investors were interviewed they replied, "he was all talk and no proof". "he spoke so eloquently on the need for us to invest but there was nothing on ground for us to build on, we need a foundation, no investor will throw money into a mirage".........that speaks volums my dear.

Which money to build a high speed train.. ?? There are so many sectors that need urgent attention... If we had that much Money GEJ wouldn't have been in China last month....
The easiest thing is for the rail network is what they are doing. Once you revitalise it and show how profitable it can be ... Investors will surely come...
You don't have the slightest idea of how much it will take to build the high speed rail you are talking about

KingMEXX: Even the news is on Channels TV as breaking news...Naija Intelligence is one hell of a weakling. Very poor efficiency. Even if the niqqa is down, stil doesn't stop the insurgency. Mohammed Yusuf is a good refernce point, the group may even come back waxing stronger than Iran lol

Have you wondered if this is just a txt to get him to refute the claims It's easy for us to stay behind our keyboards .. The war against Terrorist isn't an easy one...

Jehovah Shalom: Dear Shortgun,

Going by ur contribution, ur ideal name shld be SHORTBRAIN! You lack the elements of Leadership.Must you cruxify a man based on one shortcoming? Is it everything in ur field of study that you know?

Don't u ask yourself questions @ times? Is it professional for jounralists to ridicule their guest (if a mischieve is not intended?) Is he the only man to gaffe on Live TV? Why was his own publicise?

You need a longbrain friend!

Guy that shortcoming is not tolerable

Firstly the reason for the interview was that there where scam recruitment websites... So if he doesn't know the real one why then should he be on the show??

If it was just a random question that popped up yea.. He could be pardoned...Afterall most of the websites I visit even nairaland if not for browsing history na through google..

manmustwac: when. You return the trolly you get your coin back

Nope not at all... It's not the same with the shopping cart coin system..

Heathrow terminal 3 does same.., put your coin in before the trolley is released...

To all the fools wishing for this in NIGERIA from their keyboards... what are you guys waiting for??
