Fashola would deliver on power if supported.

There are more than these:

“The Afam 5 plant is currently being rehabilitated in collaboration with General Electric to restore 240 megawatts to the facility.

“All the turbine and equipment needed for the project are already in the country while the only challenge we are facing is the access road, logistic and few other things that we came to assess.

“We think that we will add 240 megawatts and another 100 megawatts before December with addition of 276 megawatts in 2018 from Afam power plant alone,” he said.

all this was the state He met them . What has he brought to the table

Thank goodness they showed some respect for the dead this time. By at least covering his corpse. I'm tired of seeing 'graphic pictures' everywhere. RIP to the driver.

In the words of my dear mentor
'When you finish your degree, run! Run as fast as you can away from this country! It has nothing to offer you. There's no hope- trust me. I've been hoping since the 70s.'

When you have a country where robbers are bold enough to attack during the day, you should know something is seriously wrong. Where are the security operatives? Along that same road, they will be there to set up checkpoints and greet 'Ogas' for N50. But when the real threats came by, they were nowhere to be found.

its reason for these armed men burial shifted to day time still look . Nah God shaa aa

I never said it wasn't possible! Only said it will definitely take you some time.., sometimes many years!

U are still missing the point it might take one 8 years to finish one house it's not how far but how well..u need to save part of your earnings each month to build . Buying of land can be done by loan and pay bck with monthly savings or join coporative

funmisticqueen:
Please where can i find the thread, the story is so inspiring.

Go to the property section there are loads of DIY therr and wonderful people to learn from.I supervised my own build from scratch to the stage it is now.

nairaman66:
Saving money won't probably get you a house! If it can, it will take you years. A good business deal/contract will.

Saving money would hence the saying a house is not built one day . For a working class there is no relationship of a good deal unless U mean corruption but I'm very sure not.

wow from neighbor house .

When you try to be a smart ass, be sure you have all the information.

If you have ever been to the US, you would know that CBP usually stamps you in for between 4 to 6 months, especially a regular visitor like me with a home and family in the USA. Plus you conveniently missed the part where I said 'Usually, I fly Delta. . .'? Where else does Delta fly to from Lagos, oga?

I can spend that much time outside because the nature of my job means I can work remotely. And if you don't understand that, find someone to help translate it for you

That was not my point, The point Im raising is you SAYING YOU SPEND HALF OF THE YEAR IN THE USA AND THE OTHER HALF IN NIGERIA!,there is no smartness there, its just plain fact of one bigging up something to make whom you was talking to seem irrelevant.There was no need for you to say all that trash.YOU ARE LESS THAN A YEAR OLD IN THE STATE SO QUIT THIS TRASH

1StopRudeness:
Seriously, I don't think this is about lowering one's self esteem..it could actually be actually a selling point and nothing more for the OP...
almost all the things we are using in this country isn't new..our cars are used by whites, phones, electronics, just name it..some pple even buy used clothes....Weda u like it or not, on the average... they seem to have a better maintenance culture than us.....so if the guy is trying to use it as selling leverage just to make some pple buy...I don't think it's a bad idea.....

Some black people use cars as well, not everyone abroad is white.We need to stop these lines of reasoning.I live abroad, and have sold some cars I used to different people who export them around the world still I am not white.

....if you want to experience hell at the airport.

I am writing this from the airport in Casablanca and I am tired, sleepy, frustrated and very very angry.

These people are rude, unfeeling, callous and just plain dishonest.

But let me start from the beginning. I got my Immigrant Visa last year and decided to fly Air Maroc.

Usually, I fly Delta (got the SkyMiles card to boot). But at that time, Delta needed to leave in a hurry to catch a conference in DC before heading home to the family and so I was seduced not just by the price that RAM offered, but also because it was the next quickest. Less than 5 hours to Casablanca, and another 7-odd hours to DC. So I could leave in the morning, and be in the States same day.

I was concerned about the 14-hour layover on the return leg, but the Arline assured me they had accommodation arrangements per IATA policy.

It looked a great deal, so I took it.

A couple of months after, a US Citizen friend of mine, who hadn't been home in years, told me of the harrowing experience he and his family went through with RAM on that layover.

He vowed never to touch them again even if they offered him seats for free.

Based on that, you can understand how I boarded the flight with a bit of trepidation last night. But I hoped that his tales of woe might be the over reaction of someone who has lived in the States for too long and blows any small inconvenience out of proportion.

How wrong I was.

We arrived in Casablanca nearly an hour behind schedule. Then formed a long, snaking queue at the transit desk to get our hotel vouchers. When it got to my turn, the lady looked at my boarding pass and asked me to go and sit down, that we would be attended to later.

So far, so good. I joined a few others and went to sit down. After about an hour, a man came and asked those of us from DC to come with him. We all went down, he showed us to a bus which we boarded and were taken somewhere.

That's when trouble began. The young man there blocked the entrance and launched into a staccato of Arabic. It took almost half an hour of confusion for us to calm him down and asked him what was going on, he told us we had to return to the transit terminal.

Apparently, there was no space where we had been brought to.

Back to the terminal we headed. Only, there was no bus to take us. So we had to wait in the sun for almost another half hour before they got us a bus.

Back at the transit desk, we were told to queue again for hotel vouchers. Mind you, this wasn't as straightforward as I'm writing, trust me. It took a while, raised voices, hand signs, and near fisticuffs to get to that point.

And so we queued again. Finally, we got hotel vouchers. By the time it got to my turn, some of those who had picked up theirs earlier had returned, saying they were turned back at the hotel reception because they didn't have meal vouchers to go with the hotel ones.

They were told to join the queue again and wait till it was their turn.

Incredible!

Anyway, I finally got my voucher (both hotel and meal, thankfully) and proceeded to the hotel. Got there, only to be told that they are fully booked and the earliest checkout is 9PM!

Yes 9PM.

In case that doesn't compute, let me lay it out.

Land Casablanca at 10am.
Receive hotel voucher 3 hours later at past 1PM
Can't check into hotel till 9PM
Check-in time for flight is 11:15PM
Ergo, we have to perambulate around the airport for 11 hours, then get a room for 2 hours.

How very considerate of Royal Air Maroc.

FINALLY, just like my friend, I've come to a decision. I'm NEVER, EVER flying Air Maroc again.

Not just because of this entire fiasco, but because it was very clear to me that they knew exactly what they were doing.

They have limited accommodation for the passengers coming through, they know this. And so they try all these delay tactics to waste time and end up giving accommodation to only the very few they can accommodate. And their attitude, rather than be courteous is haughtily rude and condescending.

Even if I get a seat for free, I'm tearing up that ticket

I have a green card, and I spend half the year in the USA and the other half in Nigeria. Why? Because irrespective of what people like you think, I love Nigeria.
If I wanted, I could have got my green card about 10 years ago. But I preferred to visit and come back.

So no, not everyone will fight to get out

Look why do you lot derive pleasure from just talk, you spend half the year in the US and the other half in Nigeria,You forgot you told us you got your VISA last year right

What a monstrous thing to say! You have no idea of the conditions on a slave ship and what those captured people went through. The souls of millions of dead Africans thrown overboard to drown in the cold Atlantic ocean weep for you.

YOu responce was out of emotions but if you face reality with fact the guy is right, free ship to go to the west is a sure catalyst for people to abadon Nigeria, or did you not see people paying money to go to the west via more deadly route via the desert what is worse? free ship or pay to go fru the desert

So, what you are trying to say is that it's because APC led federal government has stolen so much that's why we are suffering?
Hypocrisy of the highest order

Nonsense Until the constitution is amended and stipulate the days that a president can stay out of the country. I SMH for FAYOSE

vedaxcool:
You have said it all same fools believe money was not looted but recovered loots must be made public.

its just another way of actually proving monies where recovered . Make we wait and see if any names go show . But I bet you my last pound No name go show

agitator:
It is very difficult to school people with his mindset, 80% of youths, including so called graduates reason like this, 10% know this but are divided along nepotism, religious, ethnic loyalty lines. The remaining 10% are helpless. It is the reason why the elites takes us for a ride.

This is true and when you point out thier shortcomings they rresult in insults instead of bringing to the table a better argument . 9ja matter tire me si me long time I decided to put my Energy elsewhere and thank the good Lord I did.

prospero5:
sss!!!
i am attacking the constitution you came here to show how you think. shift o!

ermm I was not quoting you frm last I checked . Never knew you lack comprehension as well .

agitator:
Ignorance at its peak. Its in you.

There is no immunity clause for Senators and House of Reps members. Why not arrest them?

Immunity clause is to shield political office holders from Civil cases relating to actions taken while in office. Example, a state needs to do road expansion involving demolishing of some houses. If any owner refuse to accept any form of compensation, then the governor can exercise is executive powers to give order for the house to be demolished in the best interest of the state. If Fashola gives such order as governor, the individual cannot sue Fashola to court, but Lagos state government. However if Fashola confiscates a private property for his own use then the owner can complain to the law enforcement agencies, which will present the issue to the state assembly, and the assembly will impeach him to face criminal charges in court after investigation and confirmation of the allegations against him.

How many past governors still have immunity? Why not prosecute them?

Thank U for schooling him,the width of ignorance in Nigeria is mind blowing .

Points to note from the post



Abdulaziz Yari is the sitting Governor of Zamfara state

He is an APC member, Governors Forum Chairman and a core Northern muslim


EFCC did not spare him due to ethnicity, religion or even party


His constitutional immunity protects him from arrest


The looted fund has been forfeited


Summarily, this one won't be seen as witch hunt even by core wailers like...........


Deduction here is that Buhari does not care about leaving the Yam with the goat, his concern is that the Goat has no legal right to touch the yam


God bless PMB for having the political will to touch the previously "untoucheables"


Sai Baba till 2023

Deduction from your post. PMB is not in charge ,he and his wife are here next door to me in lo don.Vice president is dealing with those who want to see his back .

gbishman:
wow, 17 years. Was the wait worth it?

If you check well
half of senators governors have either British or US citizenship .
