PropertiesRe: Sanwo-Olu: Lagos To Deliver 2,268 Housing Units From 7 Schemes This Year by Eriokanmi:
Philipponzaghi:
You are saying nonsense.

Do you know any teacher in Lagos? Ask them if they are not already collecting the minimum wage.

I know about this coz I have an uncle in the teaching service.

Stop saying nonsense on the internet.
lies. You're probably one of those Tinubu's charm is working on. In September 2019 sanwoolu said he would pay minimum wage, in fact, he implemented it. Implemented doesn't amount to payment my friend. He didn’t talk about this until January 2020 when he was addressing workers in the new year, promising to pay the 3 months arrears, commencing from September 2019 when the 30k was implemented. He even promised to pay more than 30k. This was in January.

Furthermore, he was still dragging his feet on this when covid-19 broke out and he suspended it. In March, there was lock down and Lagos civil servants were placed on incomplete salary. I need you if youre so sure, to show me where and when sanwoolu paid the new minimum wage, 30k or 35k. I dare you... A promise made isn't aren't same as fulfillment of it. This is the plague you guys have been enduring all these while and you'd be pretending all is well in Lagos. We're not fools. Na una palaver. I'd only urge you set yourself free from the needless slavery. Fyi, I have 2 uncles whose wives work with Lagos state govt. One at alausa while the other at the LSDPC. My immediate elder brother is a medical doctor and his wife too. The wife works at LASUTH.

Read the below for details on the minimum wage and what sanwoolu said in January 2020 about it

I've told that garfield of a guy on a couple of occasions that Nigeria isn't ripe for party loyalty yet, looking at what has been happening since 1999 and political party composition ever since, when people were ( and still are) fond of cross-carpeting like when crossing the 3rd mainland bridge to lekki and back. Innfact, it's trendy in edo state right now among the lawmakers with about 6 of them leaving the apc to join the pdp. What if the apc had won? Even as of today, we heard a similar scenario at the federal house of reps. Are they those you should be proud of? Look at the morons in both the apc and the pdp right now. Its shameful to identify with them. Nigeria shall get there, where people would check your antecedents and weigh you on the balance before accepting you into a party.

PoliticsRe: Donald Duke And Charly Boy Hang Out Together by Eriokanmi: 11:28am On Oct 07, 2020
Cheat2Win:
Donald Duke has gone oblivion and has been away from Nigeria's political space after the 2019 election. A few months to 2023 election, he shows up again to start campaign. This is not it.
We need him to get himself abreast with the political matters now so he keeps selling his name the more before 2023 approaches.
Except he doesn't want to run for president again
It was obj who crippled his political relevance. When considering somebody from the South south to pick to lead, as compensation for the huge contribution of the region to the Nigerian economy since the oil boom and independence era, Donald Duke would have been a better pick but obasanjo went for Jonathan instead. He was considering amaechi's predecessor Odili but people said he almost looted rivers dry and was corruption so he shouldn't go there.

Had obj considered Duke, maybe he would have done better than jonathan, given his vibrant ideas but then obj too was shopping for an errand boy to succeed him. Unfortunately, it backfired as Jonathan turned himself against him.
CrimeRe: Alfred Bassa Commits Suicide After Passing Three Exams Without Promotion by Eriokanmi: 9:34am On Oct 07, 2020
There have been glaring corrupt practices in MDAs since 2015 which buhari himself isn't aware of. From selective recruitment ( police and another ministry was still accused of one recently in which a vast majority of those employed were northerners) but Buhari cannot be everywhere. Unfortunately, those chosen to head those MDAs are incompetent, corrupt and sentimental. Its only going to be by miracle for someone like Rauf Aregbesola who performed so woefully as givernor in osun and rigged election for his successor with the help of jagaban to cover up his woes and atrocities, to now do well at the federal level. His wife was awarded a contract to tar a road which passes through their own house at ipaja-ayobo in lagos. That road didn't last 3 months.

Until we begin to have sane people in government, all manners of atrocities similar to this wouldn't cease to happen. If asked about this young man's ordeal, dispite being aware of the denials, aregbe could say he never saw his file. Judgement awaits everyone who does evil. There's no short cut on the palm tree.
PoliticsRe: Zulum: Change Your Tactics, Attack Boko Haram In Hideouts by Eriokanmi:
Lol. Boko haram and the military are padipadi

To end boko haram, sack the service chiefs, appoint a non northerner to replace buratai and give some of them compulsory retirement. I remember when ihejirika and the assassinated barde were at the helms, fulanis were shouting left, right and centre, including buhari that their people were being killed and the fight against the boko haram was a.fight against the north who else remembers this ?.

They know where they are hiding our military are complicit, no doubt. How could after the police upon identifying themselves and briefing the military of their mission to arrest wadume, the army still kill them and take the criminal wadume away only to break his handcuffs and ask him to go and sin no more? Thanks to the survivor in that gunshot attack, the army would have succeeded in deceivung over 200m population. Such cant happen in a sane country. Those service chiefs would have been in jail by now, including those officers on duty who perpetrated the evil act.

You can't praise the person who completed a building without making references to those who laid the foundation. Obasanjo started the rail project, yaradua continued, Jonathan moved it to a point and now buhari completed it. Port decongestion was yaradua's ideas, Jonathan took it up where he stopped and now buhari is rounding it off. There are project's this administration started which would not be completed until the successor assumes office. Would that mean the successor only wouod take the glory? NO!

PoliticsRe: Onitsha Port Recieves Cargo After 40 Years. Kudos To PMB by Eriokanmi: 9:53pm On Oct 06, 2020
But same port was undergoing concession during GEJ administration naw, same with that of port Harcourt. Meanwhile, gej also took it up from yaradua, who originally started the process before he became incapacitated due to illness. I remember yaradua also planning dredging of river niger up to lokoja back then. The plaque is still there today when he visited and laid the foundation of a cargo port in lokoja. Baba came and stopped it, before the matter was revisited and the process, concluded under this administration, same way he's completing GEJ's rail projects which were orchestrated by obasanjo. Government is a continuum. Both yaradua of blessed memories, gej and baba deserve the accolades and had gej completed his 2nd term, he would have also concluded it by now. Me i no dey one side, truth be told. Yaradua would have done so much, another incorruptible leader Nigeria never had

Obaseki mustn't take this lightly anymore. I hope he does the needful though. Enough! They said his nysc was defective and he approached the body for correction of his name, same with UI and all of that was done but they don't want to rest.

This is a nice development from the Obaseki-led Edo state government. And this isn't different from LagosHOMS. So I don't understand why tackle Lagos scheme and praise Edo's schemehuh

The problem I have is that some of you folks on this thread will want me to believe Edo's scheme is the real deal, while that of Lagos is not, simply because you dislike Tinubu. Someone has even said the housing delivery is audio meanwhile they won't call Edo state's own audio.

I understand the bias. It's Tinubu that is the problem. So even if Sanwo-olu delivers 50,000 housing scheme before the endo of 2021, u an go still call am audio grin

https://www.pulse.ng/news/local/sanwo-olu-delivers-1576-new-houses-promises-affordable-mortgage/jkqvfec
grin Not so bro. Am sure you saw where I praised Fahola. He did well, likewise ambode. May Pa jakande's legacy never die, the man who could have afforded a private jet and established a company to siphon lagos money in his time, given his brilliant achievement but never did.. No governor in the history of Africa had beaten the set housing record till date. I was raised in lagos so I know. You must do your best by resting Tinubu's political relevance in that state else, nothing much would be achieved and that's the truth. I wouldn't blame those calling the housing scheme audio because the puppets at the helms won't be allowed to achieve anything meaningful in lagos by the godfather. They must take instructions from tinubu and that's where the problems lie. They called it audio because several initiatives of such had been launched since sanwoolu took office but were later abandoned. Go to the lagos waterways transport and see if it's functional, despite all the noise made by him when he csme, even invited media to cover it and it was in the news for weeks. Those local canoes and archaic ferries wouldn't stop wasting people's lives in various routes on lagis ocean.

Last year, sanwoolu said he was ready to pay the 30k minimum wage from November till now, nothing had been done. He even increased it to 35k... ati 30k oo, ati 35k oo, nothing was fulfilled. Just last month, LASU staff blocked the entrance of the institution in protest of non-implenentation of the minimum wage...just last month when he asked LASU to resume. Meanwhile, obaseki had been paying his civil servants the 30k since February this year, not minding the covid-19 pandemic lockdown. Check it bro. That's why people also see this as audio. Ambode, because he resufed to share lagos money, was able to achieve so much in almost one and half years of his administration. Sanwoolu can't point to one single achievement he had made in his almost one and half years in office. This time during ambode's administration, roads had been constructed, bridges including abule egba millennium ridge had been delivered ahead of schedule, etc. All we see in this govt is demolition of lekki and Allen round about monuments all in the name of beautification just to embezzle. Same sanwoolu claimed his govt was spending btw 100k and 1m naira to treat just one covid-19 patient daily grin. I wonder which drugs and manners was he giving them.. fight for your right bro. Lagos can be free.

Lagos has been doing home schemes since the time of Fashola and we have been seeing the results. Oya show us Obaseki's own, make we see
Obaseki own na the real housing scheme with 24-hour power supply, unlike what you had in place. This had been in place since early this year and the project is ongoing already, not to talk of those he started last year.

Fashola even tried and it was because he didn't agree with tinubu on many terms, the decision which made tinubu try to prevent him from doing 2nd term but failed cos lagosians had been expecting him to defect to another party and that would have been the end of tinubu in lagos because they were planning to vote him overwhelmingly, had tinubu dropped him. This got him scared and made him leave fashola alone. He hated fashola so much that he didn't want to nominate him as minister but baba said he preferred fashola to work with him. Obaseki housing scheme no be the one hitech go take siphon money from lagos pocket all in the name of providing affordable housing by building a housing unit at the cost of 3.

Edo's project na robust one as it includes an industrial park. It is ongoing already. The popupar Emotan Gardens is one of them. Come and see for yourself obaseki no dey make noise, 18 of such estates in Benin alone with each having over 700 units. All when put together would surpass what sanwoolu is shouting upandan about .
