Odunayomi247:Abioooo. Much Ado about Peter Obi. Make dem wait till campaign start. It will be like carnival nationwide |
My question is...has campaign started yet? Pls leave our candidate alone, ęjoo |
1stGenAmerican:If you have a genuine mission in America, you'd not be denied. Since 2004 I've been traveling to America unaided. My entire relations also left for studies, employment, etc. Some came back after graduation while others stayed. I chose to come back and am doing very well by God's grace. Had I chosen to relocate or stay, I'd have become a citizen by now because many of my friends whom i assisted got their green card within 4 years, with 10 years validity . They're now citizens . They know at the embasdy most of Nigerians want to japa but they're not applying a legitimate approach to it. You can't work legitimately in america as a B1/B2 visa holder, apart from that, many applicants' fraudulent activities in procuring visa had made it difficult for them to trust the genuine applicants , not because we're not educated or competent. You said you're going on vacation but got to USA and gave birth under insurance coverage. You now went back to renew your visa but got denied. Several other fraudulent cases like that |
1stGenAmerican:Which Nigerians are they trying hard to keep out of which country? . You must be kidding. Nobody cares where you're from or which tribe you belong . What matters to American investors or business owners is competency and merit. Most Nigerians fill this space very conveniently. Nigerians occupy great positions in great companies in the US. What i shared in my post was my personal experience. The name of the hotel is Omni Shoreham Hotel. If truly you know Washington DC well, just walk there and see for yourself. |
Una neva see anything oo. Its dame tsunami sweeping the entire country right now, except kano and Katsina |
Rozross:I wish you witnessed her wedding. It was hilarious, guy. I watched it on NTA in those days. Diana was codedly silenced in a car crash. I'm glad you read about her. |
Kagd10:So did your posted picture point to negotiation with Ipob? Na wah for you oo ![]() |
Ayu ooo, wike oo, atiku ooo. No way! Aso vila already booked by Obi |
FirstSon01:Calling someome werey isn't a good idea. Try and be civil ok? |
It all depends. Nobody had at one time or the other harassed me in America or anywhere else. I schooled among them, trained among them, even have them as business partners. American blacks ( both men and women alike) should get some education because whites invest heavily in their child's education. If you're educated, nobody can bully you. You can raise your shoulders up and supervise a white dude or lady and you'd earn your respect. Each time I travel to America, either for a meeting or conference, na Black peeps go dey open the hotel door, dey clean the compound, dey cut grass, dey collect luggage from visitors Why? I looked at a man at a hotel in Washington DC in 2019 during a program, he looked at me too...i guess he could read my mind. He's an American. He was at the entrance of the hotel assisting people with luggage. I just shook my head. In that gathering, the number of blacks seen was so meagre. Before you could see one black, you go don see like 60-100 whites. They should change their orientation, go to school and get a good life and all will he well. In Africa today, Nigeria is the most educated. Each time a white man approaches me, the first question he'd ask is...are you Nigerian? Same as every other blacks they see. They believe its only Nigerians who could be found in such gatherings. |
Cognitivereason:If you truly read my post, you'd realise i mentioned only Diesel. Diesel is just one of the products drivable as petroleum product from the crude. During our project days in the riverine areas, where diesel source of supply was very far away. We were always using this diesel refined from those illegal refineries they supplied even cheaper. It's only diesel they could refine. We used to also bring diesel from the main town, loaded inside Jerry cans. This is hard to believe but the quality isn't any different. This I know, believe it or not. We spent 2 months on that project. That said, compared to the major refineries which could gulp billions of dollars in construction, an individual can construct a modular refinery and that's why I said it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Even our celebs can raise the money. With $5m today, my modular refinery will be up and running in less than one year, depending on capacity. As an investor, it's achievable cos i can raise a substantial part of it while my partners would raise the rest or I approach my bank. Go and check how much it cost edo modular refinery to build. Jimoh ibrahim could be sweating profusely on his own project cos he's deeply enmeshed in debts. He might not be able to complete it on time. I don't agree with you that, should the port Harcourt refinery become operational today, they'd reject its products in Europe, please stop this, it's a white lie. Regardless of the parameter used by you to measure the quality, it's far from the truth. In age, the refinery is not so old, there are older refineries across the globe today still refining and selling to us. If its quality of products, we've never had issues with that or at what time was it reported that the products refined at any of the local refineries were adulterated or destroyed automobile engines? Guy, small small abeg. If our local refineries could be revamped today, the refined quality is as good as what's obtainable elsewhere in the world. The last time I checked, only imported petroleum products were said to have been adulterated. I can't forget what it did to my car engine in 2007 |
Quintopia:Wrong. Fixing existing roads isn't same as infrastructural development, that's where you getting it wrong. With this alone, I'm not supposed to argue with you any further but you need some enlightenment. With recurrent expenditure, you can do all the maintenance and fixing of roads and all. The tinubu most of you are supporting today would tell you the same. See those he developed do wonders in their terms. Fashola, ambode and abike Dabiri were said to have been sent to havard by lagos state government to study leadership and governance. See them today. The infrastructure both fashola and ambode built in lagos are for the eyes to see. Tinubu didn't even do half of it....that's the result of human capital development. Put reckless and uninformed people in the helms of affairs and see what would happen naw. Pa Awolowo first declared free education in our region. He sent people abroad on scholarship to study about cocoa and cola nut plantation. See our region today. It was as a result of human capital development. Sadly, you were so myopic in your submission. China had nothing...I repeat, nothing when they sent their citizens to go and study overseas. Why didn't they start construction of those heavy infrastructure back then first? Saudi Arabia too did same. See the results today, what of UAE? You need to go and study about these countries first tonight before you come back here to argue good luck to you. |
Human capital development before infrastructure. See what's happening today. Did you know how many billions of dollars were expended in the kaduna-abuja railway alone? See what's happening there now. When you engage people with jobs, there'd be less vices in the society. There's a proverb which says, the idle hand is the devil's workshops. Empower them up north with agricultural grants. Since they have vast land to grow crops, not the kind of selective empowerment as seen today by the CBN. All agricultural grants land in the hands of governors and big farmers who are mainly politicians and they end up blowing it. If the government can empower local farmers and youths who produce about 40% of the food we eat , then infrastructural development can follow. Most of the farmers up north have turned bandits and Okada riders. See power for instance. Obasanjo had built enough power plants. How many of them are generating electricity today and at what capacity? Instead of building new ones, we should make the existing ones work. What of the oil and gas sector? We don't even need more refineries. The agitation for modular refineries would reduce with the revamp of kaduna, port Harcourt and warri refineries. Once all these are done, we'd say bye to fuel importation. The sale of power sector must be revisited and licences revoked. The likes of Emilokan are beneficiaries of this. They sold power sector to themselves and ignored the likes of GE who bidded. Once human capital is developed and SMEs are birthed, then the government won't be afraid of building more roads as the country develops. There'd be no need of deploying military at road construction sites cos of kidnappers or terrorist attacks because everybody would get to work. Our education sector needs to be improved too. Infrastructure can only be developed in a country where there's none. Nigeria needs human capital development instead. There's a local adage which says, Eni tao ko, oun lo maa gbe ile ti a ko ta, nitakuta. This literally means a child not trained today would end up selling off the father's property recklessly tomorrow. If you build infrastructure and they keep bombing it, or railway and they keep destroying it, it doesn't make sense. Woo investors to Nigeria and encourage those in the Diaspora to invest home. That's what India did, China too. In fact, China sent their citizens to school overseas. See China today. They first developed themselves before infrastructure. Obi is totally correct. I'm not talking of 30k npower that would only be used to buy rice and cook soup. Give soft loans to people and monitor it. With human capital development in place, corruption would reduce drastically as well. Obi speaks my language and that's why I'm supporting him, he's not my tribe. Anyone who had had the opportunity of traveling to the west and other developed econimies which started same time as Nigeria would know Nigeria is in ruins. Indonesia came here when obasanjo was military head of state to learn how to grow oil palm. Today, they're the largest exporters of palm oil in the world. Shamefully, Nigeria buys from them. OAU was built with cocoa proceeds ABU with cotton and groundnut proceeds, Etc. Where's cocoa today? Nigeria shall rise again. |
Shhhhh! Falz pls don't talk much. Cos urchins are around to label you ipob ![]() Some of them shall faint after 2023 elections are announced. For the first time, they'd realise the fact that, the real structures are the masses. |
Thanksful:Why not encourage those you know, whose pvcs were found by visiting their homes to inform them? Let election approach, you'd see last minute rush to inec offices for pvc collection. Na naija way ![]() |
We've moved on. We only showed concern so they'd not be shouting rigging after 2023 electrons. At least, they'd know why they lost |
Ha, this tori long ooh. |
KnowAll:Here they cone again. And if you ask them, they'd say Obi isn't a threat to them ![]() |
crestedaguiyi:Even till now, still unknown ![]() |
Then, agbadorian urchins should stop talking about Obi ![]() |
Copplestone guys |
How can he? Had fashola and ambode not called his bluff, they wouldn't have done so much. Sanwoolu is the only one doing good boy , now with nothing to show for it. This time during ambode's tenure, projects ti sun lo jaburata |
VKN23: ![]() |
Villa12:Count me out pls pls pls. My vote goes to obi |
lhordspy:Obi can buy you and your state. Check out his bank's net worth |
FreeStuffsNG:lmao. Continue |
Corridon:I didn't believe it hook line and sinker oo. That's why I said...if true |
FreeStuffsNG:It's too late , sorry. This was what I thought too, which was why I wasted my vote on him in 2015. There would be a lot of revelations by the time buhari leaves office. Watch out! |
Nice one, if true. Wait oo, abi na my eye?? One of them shared same name with Emilokan's running mate....high-ranking Boko Haram commanders, including Abou Hauwa, (Munzir) |
iwaeda:I know. |
chaddy16:It's because he's a liar. Emilokan indeed. Nibo lo ti kaan? |
Oooh! Where was i when this was first pushed to fp by mods? I really had a long day. I'd have dissected Tinubu's lies small. Shebi each time i tried to educate Tinubu's urchins that Lekki was opened up by our uncle Pa Jakande, they always take a swipe at me, either ignorantly or deliberately. This man had said it the way it was. It was the legendary Alhaji Lateef Jakande who had actually opened up the Lekki peninsula when the first democratic elected governor broke through the forests and the swamps with his road building crew, erecting first class roads from Ozumba Mbadiwe to the fringes of Epe, thereby opening up the Eastern corridor of Lagos State. What more can I say? Ęse pupo sir. Urchins, shock awaits all of you next year in Lagos. Enough said |

Talk is cheap o. He was travelling round the world to shop for lethal weapons and artillery while funding the best training for the armed forces , now anyone messing with our armed forces air, water and land will be finished by Buhari. Do not try him. He did same thing during the civil wars and the early 80s. He is doing same to the Elzakky zaky sect.
