Politics / Re: Peter Obi Vehemently Condemns Lagos-Calabar Highway As A Misplaced Priority by Eriokanmi: 8:36pm On Apr 30
iSense247:
Can you create a Sea port in a landlocked region?
Which region is landlocked? Have you been to UAE before?UAE that dredged to the ocean bed and invited a pull of ocean to their doorstep and turned it into a world class sea port? River Niger was better, compared to the arid( desert) land where they created a pathway for the ocean to reach them. Yaradua was a president Nigeria never had. He approved the dredging of the river Niger up to lokoja. I remember that day. Successive governments simply abandoned the project.

We're just not ready for growth in Nigeria yet. In less than a decade, they'd make double that investment in profit if they can dredge. It can be extended to Lokoja, which happens to be Anambra's neighbor . I've been to the river Niger spot in lokoja where there's confluence hotel. I once saw a boat that came from onitsha and returning with passengers.

Tribalism, bigotry and the likes have caused Nigeria a lot of setbacks, which had caused several nations who couldn't wear our shoes to leave us behind. Sadly, we're yet to learn any lesson from it. This cuts across all tribes. No one is exempted.

Waste of resources it is. Why not use the money to create more sea ports to decongest lagos port. Create one in Ondo, modernise the one at Koko in delta state and another one in the S/E. The ROI would have been massive.

But he won't do that because his company hitech would lose out of the project. He won't see anything to eat.

What do you expect from the corrupt propagandist? Someone who had been using the Lagos-owned airport and 4th mainland bridge to campaign for nearly 30 years now, on approaching every election time in Lagos. The airport, we no see, the 4th mainland bridge, we no see. We only see them in 3Ds ,8Ds etc.

By the way, has the UAE visa ban been lifted now?

What of the Qatar's investors coming to Nigeria? Are they here already?

Anyone who believes the coastal road will exceed 2 states in his tenure must still be under the bondage of his lies. The lagos-ibadan expressway, that is less than 200km, which Jonathan started is yet to be completed, 9 years after. That coaster road project, after being awarded to Tinubu's company called hitech, won't be completed in 3 decades.

emkz:
Olumide Akpata, this is not a good way to start.

You have just made enemies of Edo students of Uniben. Do not repeat that mistake in Ambrose Alli Unuversity.

Whether you like it or not, the student population have numbers and influence you don't want to lose.

At this time, you need a seasoned election campaign manager and image maker. You need a strategist to plot the road for you. One of your first major outing should not have ended in bad press.

A seasoned campaign manager would have met the SUG leadership, had a chat with them, give them money for drinks and negotiate with them not to disrupt things. You must anticipate these things. It is sadly the way of our politics.

You need to know the opinion leaders in these institutions and if you can't get them to support you, get them not to disrupt you or those who support you.

So far, your entire campaign reeks of inexperience and lack of tact.
In your opinion? It doesn't count. Those invaders were sponsored and it won't stop him

Hustling won't kill a man, hard work won't kill a man, success won't kill a man, educational background and plenty of degrees garnered wont kill a man.

The only thing everyman must be running away from is sex(not women). Sex will wreck what a man has been brooding for his entire life and could dash his future and hope for ever.

Have business dealings or relationship with women and let it end there. Hire them but with no strings attached. They're not at fault 99% of the time as they're not the ones forcing men into it. They're human beings created by God but men need to always be careful.

Most of those who voted him didn't know him, including the Northerners who fell for his muslim-muslim ticket tricks grin. Come and ask us in lagos. That's why he didn't win here. We shouted, our elders did, but they didn't hear

I always wonder why they always tag Obi, who said people shouldn't vote him based on his faith but based in his credibility, a religous bigot and spare tinubu, the real bigot.

See as his dogs are barking at asari now, but when he supported tinubu, they showered praises on him. Anyone sho says the basic truth about tinubu is their enemies. Una go get sense someday

Come to lagos and see how long it took to get where they are today on the lagos rail project. 1999 till date is how many years now? 4th mainland bridge tinubu has been using to campaign to steal our votes every 4 years has been talked about several times. As I speak, they're still on masterplan brouhaha.

Lagos-ibadan expressway nko? This is the 3rd administration and it's not yet completed. How many years is that? They wat to use the coastal road project to steal money by inflating the contract 3 times its actual cost. Hitech, which is Tinubu's construction firm will get a lion's share. They will now win gullible souls to vote them in 2027 again by pointing to the road project which will cut across many regions where they have low support as part of their achievement.

So you think that when deals are reached, you should start seeing results straight away, and it will be in the news and on nairaland and on your doorstep?

Do you know that for major projects, preliminary work can take up to two years before actual construction starts?

Naive, simple-minded man with a big mouth.
See this one. You know nothing ok? We do projects too, even cross-border ones. All you hear is audio. Did I hear you say such news won't come on NL? News fly like wildfire from the mouths of your likes, stop lying. You'd not hesitate to jump here on NL to post.

Thanks for the info. I was actually talking of Prado. The 4.0L VXL is my target. I'm comparing prices. What year/edition did you quote? I don't like 2023 model for a reason. 2021/2022 is OK. I'd be in the US soon and survey too. Whatever it is, I'd revert . Thanks

In his voice...subsidy is gaan grin. Why are we still experiencing fuel scarcity and long queues as seen across the nation today? Propaganda,.Propaganda and Propaganda. His supporters must learn by force.

Yesterday, it was dstv hiking their subscription and they started screaming and I know why. They don't joke with football. When multinationals were leaving in droves, the didn't bother cos they're so myopic and jobless.

Now, electricity tariff hike is on the front burner and they're kicking. By the time they can't afford the new electricity tariff, and petrol isn't there to fuel generator to play game lottery and dstv subscription is steering them in the face, they'd understand the consequences of making a bad choice.

Politics / Re: Senate Expresses Worry Of Fresh Naira Fall by Eriokanmi: 8:30pm On Apr 28
SoNature:
These politicians are the same people who share USD during their national conventions. When elections are over, they start mopping up USD ahead of the next elections. I wrote earlier and I am writing it again: if these politicians want naira to grow, they know what to do. Ban all Nigerian businesses from asking Nigerians to pay in USD and criminalize the spending of physical USD in Nigeria.

Afterwards, you will see the results after 6 months. But they won't do this because they will be the biggest casualties. Those pretending to be working for the progress of this country are too many. We even see their riffraffs here defending them. That's why Nigeria can never genuinely make progress.
Tinubu is the major problem of Nigeria, not even buhari. He was same person who went and picked buhari and singly flew him in his jet all over and campaigned for him, spreading lies and propaganda in 2015, just to earn people's vote. He went as far as the Chatham house to redeem the former dictator's image in the eyes of the world

Now, the propaganda continues. Tinubu gave 25kUSD to every delegate, just to win the primaries.

In a decent country, he'd be arrested, same as atiku

Stop lying. Only a factory will pay that amount in that location. I live in an estate under 33" in lag and I don't pay more than 30k monthly even with the AC constantly on whenever we are around. We enjoy light up to 22hrs daily. At times, light won't blink in 3 days

They're not there for you and I. They're there for themselves and that's why they're so desperate. Remember Remi Tinubu who said on a public TV that they're not running for president to make money,.that God had blessed their family already (they always lie using God's name all the time, after stealing what belongs to the masses). If you check what was budgeted for the office of the first lady, you'd scream.

Ondo and assassination na 5 and 6. I doubt the indomie generation knows this fact. I remember ęgbę dęmo and operation wętię ( wet it with petrol) days. I remember the assassination of Fagbamigbe, the owner of fagbamigbe publishers and a notable man called Agbayęwa.

Too bad in the 21st century. Obviously, they don't want Ayedatiwa, which also confirmed the outcome of the election at the primaries being fraudulent as declared by some party loyalists. It was declared inconclusive at some point.

A bad omen for the apc in Ondo where Jegede also holds sway. He really gave late aketi a though time.
