TravelRe: Commuters Groan, Businesses Shut As Sango-Ota Road Collapses by Eriokanmi: 9:27am On Aug 19, 2022
KashApp:
Shiooooorrrr.... But I have a question though:

Why is it that Tinubu and Atiku's supporters always attack when you say, "Vote wisely or get your PVC"? Even if you don't mention any name

Anyways, may God help Ogun State...even the few roads the governor dey construct are not too strong. Federal government should do something asap. Ikere Ekiti to Akure is another disaster...
No be una vote the apc in ekiti again. Another apc helmsman is in power, you'd groan for another 4 years, even more grin. All fayemi knows is blow dry grammar. The philosophy graduate is bereft of ideas. He's a good example of putting a square peg in a round hole. He's still owing workers as i speak
won ti fowo workers dibo tan. He's Tinubu's boy, who draws up propaganda for him to spread all the time. I've known him since June 12 days. Are you aware he governs from his Ikeja GRA home? He only goes to ekiti whenever there is a function and he'd open his tooth gap in the media to show he's working. Then, he returns to lagos afterwards.

Unfortunately, ekiti makes up of mainly old people and civil servants. The youths hardly stay home to change the economic situation of the predominantly "farmer" state.

I drove from lagos to Ado Ekiti, a few weeks after their election. The road was so bad. On getting to aramoko, turning to igede road ha, it was a bizarre experience my broda. My SUV was dancing palongo grin. Even the patched portions were already pulling out. As if that wasn't enough, a few miles away from igede was something else. The asphalt had been completely washed off the road. The road was looking like the one leading to a typical farmstead.

The only good road is the short cut from iyin down to Ado which they said fayemi started in his first term and recently completed.

Not even in my dream would I vote either the apc or pdp again. I've promised myself this.

Back to sango road, I remember when Daniel was in government, he didn't use his influence to do that road though a federal road. Obasanjo was president but ignored the road too. Go to Daura in Katsina, you'd pick your food and eat, if it drops on that road, to describe how smooth and clean it is.

I hope our people wouid jettison tribal and religious politics for once and vote the right candidate come next year. The oshogbo Ife road is another nightmare. My question is, are our apc politicians not plying those roads and what's their feeling each time they drive on them, do they have conscience at all? There were 2 scenes of accident that day caused by bad riad.
Many major roads in yorubaland are bad yet, tsome gullible minds are shouting awon lokan. Indeed!

Vote for Tinubu, Obi can't win. If you know Lagos pre 1999, you would have known there was nothing in Lagos; forget what all these jjc are saying that it develops because it was former capital. Tinubu had foresight and laid very good foundation for the state and left Nigeria behind. How Lagos is coping with the massive population is something extraordinarily. In the 90s armed robbery, poor waste management, village looking neighborhoods, etc were so prevalent but thanks to Tinubu; he knows how to arrange proper men in appropriate positions to archive great objectives. He can replicate same at the federal level if given chance.
Don't let anyone deceive you that one politician is a Saint.
Like seriously? where were you when our uncle Jakamde was governor? If you're truly a lagosian and well grown that time,.you'd not be talking this way. Every time you guys come on the social media fora , defending tinubu, I always wonder if you were paid to do that. Lagos had always been a rich state. Who founded LASU? The Lagos Literail they've been using to campaign since 1999? What of the roads linking lagos state towns and suburb? General Hospitals nko? Lagos Government House, etc? In the 80s when pa jakande flagged off the lagos literail, he promised delivering it in 8 years . He built the largest housing estate in Africa in his time, markets etc were done under him. Had his tenure not been truncated by Buhari's coup, he'd have delivered the rail project in record time. The lekki you people were bragging of, that tinubu developed, was part of jakande's urbanisation plans. Have you ever heard of Jakande estate at Lekki? Find out how old the estate is. It was his plan to open up that area.

When tinubu came in 1999, the Lagos master plan was handed over to him by baba. He jettisoned most of them, only pocketed a few. Even the few, he wasn't able to do much. Every 4 years, he'd come, used it to campaign, do a little and rrop it until another election.

Lagos had always been a rich state. Pa jakande did all those amazing jobs without borrowing and in less than 4 years. Baba didn't have a single helicopter before he left. Till date, none of his children engages in poootics and it was on baba's instructions and warning. Tinubu's family hold sway in lagos, his.companies too.You and I know how many jets tinubu has today and some people still want us to vote him, no be curse naw.

2023 will really test his popularity. I won't say more than that.

tunjijones:
I don't even know who to support in this election.

Tinubu is too old to rule this very complex country and his party even had the audacity to pick a Muslim as a running mate (I know that's the only way they can have a chance). But his past experience and exploits in governance is really speaking for him

For Peter obi, he didn't do much in Anambra (forget all what is supporters are saying online. How wld you return money back to the state account when there are several infrastructures to be built. I think he was clueless on what to use the funds for). But he younger and agile. He is not a saint but he is a lesser thief compared to atiku and tinubu.

For Atiku, I don't even know. He is as much a thief like tinubu but at least he picked a Christian running mate and he has vast experience in governance and has as much international connections as Tinubu.

Kindly advise on who i shd vote for with strong reason. (I have my PVC and I must vote).

FYI, I will not vote a candidate cos of religion or tribe.
Your opinion...whoever you're voting is your choice. Ko gbagidi

PoliticsRe: Adamu Adamu Tells Students To Take ASUU to court For Damages by Eriokanmi: 4:06pm On Aug 18, 2022
Biodun556:
Some federal universities are still collecting 10,000 naira as school fees and ASUU is demanding 1 trillion naira.

It is save to say federal universities are charity organizations.
Who asked the fed govt to establish more universities? Nigerian government is so wasteful and am sure the idea was borne out of selfishness and corruption. Have they taken care of the existing ones yet? Since they didn't see this coming and jumped at it, they need to provide enough facilities in those schools. The fed govt has also been owing ASUU for decades. Those monies became accumulated. Mind you, what ASUU is fighting for is mostly for the benefit of students. Nigerian universities aren't among the 1000 best in the world. No wonder UK unis are saying Nigerian graduates aren't welcome for master's degrees in their school.

You sound somewhat emotional towards this govt. Your comment has shown. ASUU has been going on strike since the pdp days, if not before then and the successive governments had been appealing, paying out of the backlogs. This regime doesn't seem to care . The last time I checked, mallams aren't interested in education but spending money. I'm not surprised.

I pray to God. I hardly feel depressed but whenever it strikes, something big ,.like some breakthrough is around the corner. It's my personal experience.

Maybe those committing suicide shouldn't have dared. Cos depression is a trick from the devil, to deprive people of the lurking breakthrough.

There's a young girl in my neighbourhood who had written Cambridge 2 times some years back. She failed while those she taught passed excellently. She attempted suicide by drinking hypo. She's already foaming when they noticed it and rushed her to the hospital. It was while she was on sick bed they told her she had 3As in her 3rd Cambridge attempt. She said she didn't want to see another bad result, after she's been told that their result had been released. So, she wanted to end it. She's in a medical shool in one of the leading UK universities now, even won a scholarship into the school 2019.

PoliticsRe: Attack Threats: Lagos Under Partial Lockdown — Lagos Police Commissioner, Alabi by Eriokanmi:
Which lock down? As far as we know in Lagos, police only keep and protect the facilities of the politicians.

Here in lagos we provide our own security, we sink borehole to get water while in livable cities in the world, people depend on water from the waterworks and watermains yet, some myopic illiterates will be challenging the number 2 most unlivable city rank globally given to Lagos.

Just report a crime to the police here. They'd never come on time and when they finally come, you'd be hearing stories...no fuel, we missed our way, blablabla. Until we stop playing politics with human lives in Lagos, we wouldn't get things right . With all the vices , bad infrastructure, dirty environment, open drainage system, some people would still challenge the ranking. They think its only when there's no act of terror or war that a city can be called livable. How many hospitals do we have and how many of them are well equipped and affordable to the common man? Is there health and social insurance coverage for all?

We do everything by ourselves in lagos yet, some people wouid say tinubu is working. What's our population in Lagos? Can someone tell? What happened to the 4th mainland bridge since 1999 they've been using it to campaign? What happened to our state owned airport? Between 1999 and now, some states had built their own airports without making noise about it or use it to campaign. During same period, Delta built an airport, Anambra built, Ebonyi built, as small as bayelsa is, they had their own airport. These are the things that reduce crime rate in the city, making it livable. Traffic will be reduced with functional rail system, Good road and airport. Less traffic, less crime

God bless pa jakande. He started the lagos literail in the 80s. If not for the interruption of regime by buhari coup, he'd have completed it within the 8-year period as stipulated. Since 1999, they've been using lagos literail to campaign, they'd do small and leave the rest till when another election period is approaching. Baba jakande built the largest housing estate in Africa in less than 4 years back then without borrowing. Lagos had always been rich but the resources had always been stolen. Till baba died, he had no single helicopter, talkless of 3 private jets.

Anyone who lived in the 80s would know how traffic was being controlled here, despite being a busy city. Every vehicle had their routes. If you go off route , you're in trouble. They had stickers on them. What do we have tiday? Oluomo and thugs everywhere chasing danfos and LT buses collecting money and someone would be saying lagos is progressive. Police used to patrol streets back then. When last has anyone witnessed or heard a police siren at night in Lagos? Someone was paying for those stuffs. They collect security votes but always share it. You see police only around them and abandon the masses who vote them into power every 4 years and once there's a casualty among the masses as a result of govt's failure to provide the basic needs like security, they come up with their propaganda, just to exonerate themselves or silence the family of the victim with threats, in order to cover-up. Is that good?

Sadly, most of those praising the government of the day and their paymasters have fallen victims of crime in lagos. Ambode would have restored the glory of lagos but the power that be didn't allow him. We'd get it right soonest.
PoliticsRe: Flawed Reasons Why Lagos Is Ranked Second Most Unlivable City In The World by Eriokanmi: 8:43am On Aug 18, 2022
plaindealer:
So, they've been peddling this rubbish all over the place even with the help of ignorant, unintelligent and unpatriotic Nigerians.

There's never been any war, conflict or acts of terrorism in Lagos state, in fact, it's the safest state in Nigeria.

Are they talking about the Lagos in Nigeria, their own made up story, Imaginary Lagos or just rubbish put together to sell internet clicks?
Most of those who contributed to this topic are either unintelligent or biased. What makes a country livable? Why did the op only harp on terrorism, conflict and war? Ask yourself these questions:

What's the longevity of man in Lagos?
What's the per capita income?
Do we have clean environment?
What of infrastructure?
Social amenities nko?
Housing nko?
Employment?
Access to affordable Healthcare?
Security?
Air pollution?

Lagos is ranked far below average on all of the above.

Go to ordinary Cotonou in Benin Republic. Where you park your car is where you'd meet it. Healthcare is on the average. You get to wherever you're going right on time. No girigiri.

Before you say Benin Republic is not as populated as lagos, see London and new york, as populated as they are, people can still plan their movement without hindrances. You get to wherever you're going on time. I once travelled from Thamesmead to Wimpole Street for a meeting at Central London. Also from Jamaica side to NY JFK. Anyone familiar with those areas would know its worse than Oshodi-lekki axis in terms of population and busy traffic. I got there right on time. Can you achieve that in lagos? Ask yourself.

Check the blood pressure of people living in lagos. Many are walking corpses. They don't even pay attention to their health. No good drainage system, no good environment. The way ikoyi is, is how every part of lagos should be , to make it livable cos that's the acceptable
standards and the way most livable cities of the world, most of which I've visited by God's grace are. When a crime is reported, how long does it take the police to arrive and act? What of fire disaster or accident? These are the veritable factors determining if a city is livable or not.

I live in Lagos and I know a lot is missing. It can always get better. The lagos literail is coming and hoping soonest. We need at least 3 functional airports here, constant road and infrastructural development, affordable housing... and that's why Ambode will always be my governor after Pa Jakamde.

Lagos fits into that rating they gave. No bias.

Only the soul lives there, not flesh nor spirit

Personal text: Jesus is not a theologian. He is God who told stories.
Yes, we're on same page. Not the physical body would face judgement, and once the body is destroyed, another body can never resurface on the judgement throne or seat of God, contrary to some people's belief that they're going to marry 72 virgins and give birth grin

Amazingly, many still live but don't know their essence of life and living. They don't undestand their makeup as a being . Soul doesn't get tired, it doesn't fall sick, neither does it die, it's the flesh or body that's prone to all that. When someone in pain falls asleep, he's relieved of that pain, he could even be deeaming and seeing himself in strange or known places. When he's awake and the soul synchronises with the body, the pain returns same as when someone dies and there are proofs of that. My friend by the name Kunle Ajibola was hit by a vehicle along oworo in lagos in the 90s as he wanted to cross. He had mobility issues so he wasn't fast enough to beat the incoming speeding vehicle. He passed out immediately. The force of collusion pushed him to the road side and the driver sped off.

Long story cur short, he said he found himself in the midst of beautiful flowers and people , both young, old, white and black were surfacing from every side( meaning people die every second globally, same way new children are born) . He said the place was calm and cool, with nice breeze. He said nobody was talking to one another and everyone facing their own way. He got to a T-Junction where someone appeared to him,wearing white and tall and asked , where do you think you're going? He said to him, he doesn't know but as others were going, he too was going his own way. He now said, the time to cross that spot wasn't ripe yet, that he should look back...the moment he did, he found a large crowd surrounding him and some sharp and unbearable pain greeted his body. Then he quickly remembered he was hit and people began to shout...he's back, he's back and one man he didn't know took him to gbagada General hospital. He became born again due to that experience. Amazingly, if you see him today, you'd never believe he ever had any accident...no fractures , everything became normal.
