You did not anwer the questions inspite of writing a one pager

If you read it you would have seen the answers.
Teaching my dog to read and write seems to be a much easier task here.
Please take your pain relief and go get some sleep.
Hope say you done chop?

This is not lawful. I mean what’s the diff between these our police and the kidnappers that kidnapped nabenna

No decorum nothing.

Only a man who ha not faced the horrors of kidnap or a man whose family or close friend has never faced such would say what you are saying.
Have you listened to accounts given buy those who were kidnapped?
Left me for them for put one bullet each for each elbow too.
Good as them burst the two kneel caps

Arobaga
Hmmmm
Hunger no good oh.
A hungry man is an angry man they say.
E be like say the boy don smoke cheap Igbo on empty stomach sef

Is there pipe borne water, decent schools, hospitals there? These are their core mandate

That you are asking this question shows you don't even know Ikoyi Obalende.
You just open mouth waaaaaa just because you want to criticize, even when you are not making sense.
You guys should try to help yourself some times.
This is just an LCDA not even a local government.
This is happening in the same country where a governor commissioned wheel narrows and street light.
Orton of Benue state celebrated a traffic light that was installed by MTN.
And you are here criticizing an LCDA that did this....

PS:Ikoyi/Obalende they have very good schools, good primary heath care centres etc.
If you no sabi place no dey put mount when people dey talk about am.

Na lie. This is s.tup.id. In a country with poor electricity, you're buying electric cars. How will they be charged?

You people said this same stupid things when Lagos state government brought in the electric buses.
Has any of the busses stopped on the way?
Una do dey tire.
Even when you see the buses which are much bigger and consume much more power, functioning every day you still say the idea behind this small vehicles is stupid, who is actually stupid?
The Lagos station government has her own gas plant for electricity.
Has any BRT come to your house to beg for your generator to charge them.
Una go just open mouth waaaaa dey criticize.

DMerciful:
These will be stolen eventually. This is not what government do but private companies. Government fix roads, drainage, pipe borne water, health services, schools.

Encourage companies to invest in transportation but not be involved in buying vehicles that government cannot run profitably or successfully

The same way all the Lagrids plying roads all over Lagos have all been stolen right?
Nigerians no dey carry ear hear of good think.
When the government does you find something to nag about, if they don't you still nag.
This is not even a local government, it's an LCDA, how many states have been able to do this.
Are the BRT busses owned by the state not functioning properly?
Are the Lagrids not effective.
There is nothing you lots would not complain about

Wisereborn:
Femi Adesina turned journalism into a joke

You are reporting 'emi lokan' as if you guys are still campaigning the same party members for that matter

It's no wonder, you guys didn't do well, you made trivia things the bone of contention

Like Mohammed busy discussing jollof rice upandan

And these are the people who will be abusing governor Adeleke upandan

Many of you were planted by Tinubu but we don't care because Buhari performed woefully and Tinubu is trying to break his record

Bunch of losers

Your reading is even a bigger joke.
Go back and read from the top again.
This time slowly

This is good.
Else one man will large ego and shoulders would wake up on day, go to a near by cyber café, design nd print out a certificate and calling himself chief.

tollyboy5:
Don't misinform the public. You can't rule anywhere because you're a yoruba man. You can't even become a bale where you have no heritage.

And in the real sense it's Lagos and ogun state that are one

See where your mind went.
Your type are the reason we may never have peace in this country.
Your definition of being one is rulling .
Spits........

So we can't be one and live in peace if I can't rule in another man's land

mfm04622:
The response to the unfortunate Kaduna incident was due to the fact the Nigerian Army bombed innocent victims. The Ibadan case was not caused by Nigerian Security.

He is the average Nigerian who trys to fault the government even where there is no fault.

Praxis758:
When the unfortunate military mishap happened in Kaduna, the senate moved it and donated their salaries to the victims, politicians turned that area to Mecca for visit but the Ibadan blast received no attention by the South West elites, religious leaders and politicians.

The reason for the neglect is vote mobilization during elections. Politicians know that northern voters are easy to mobilize during elections but the south westerners will be indoor watching TV or forming warriors on social media on Election Day.

Lesson from this is that we south westerners are lions on political issue on paper but absentees in real electoral issues.

I knew a Nigerian somewhere would find a way to bring tribe and politics into this unfortunate incidence.

Q:How many people died in the Bodija mishap?
How many died in the North?
Now do your maths and take a look at your self in the mirror.
Thats is a tribal bigot standing in front of you

That you feel that visits from politicians is of much more importance than what, FEMA, LASEMA and Oyo state government is doing already show you lack understanding of the realities on ground and lack knowledge of what is expedient at the moment.
Will the politicians be structural engineers, do they have experience in search and rescue?

Chicagograduate:
The same Jonathan that Tinubu crucified

I expected you to evade the main point and you didn't disappoint.
Show me anybody in your generation that has been recognised by a president let alone 2 presidents.
Even president of Okada union no sabi you say you dey exist

Propaganda..

"When a man stands on the road arguing with a mad man, soon people will begin to think he is mad" -Chinua Achebe.
I wont say more than this to you.

Hmmm... it must be you don't get around much ... or observe much! There are luxury cars laying around all everywhere ... owners either don't have the money to have them fixed ... or have the money but can't find mechanics who can fix the problem. Those who can't afford are usually those who want to "keep up with the Jones'" ... and I know many like that.... always struggling to buy petrol let alone pay for repairs. And yes ... cars do come with warrantees .... but that is for manufacturer's defects. If you become the owner of the car... then you have to take out insurance on your vehicle. Or is it the city will give them out fully insured? It's a good offer ... but the person taking ownership needs to dot all the is and cross all the t's before making a decision.

When you see a luxury car that has been abandoned its not really because the owner can't maintain it.
It is probably because a part is giving the owner difficulty.
I currently drive a GX460, got an infinity JX 35 for my baby mama, I also have a 2013 Dodge Charger, I am changing them all this January, spent not less than 2m on the infinity last year, from auxiliary, to gear, to crank shaft etc.
The Lexus isn't any different. Spent about 1.5 on it in the last 6 months, changed ABS etc, the headlamps (4 pin) cost me about 850k
Spent 420k on the Dodge sometime in August.
I have a corolla that is always my run to when all chips are down.
Now those are not maintenance issues, those are mechanical faults..
I am pointing all these out so you understand the difference.
Not many peopl3 would want to go though all these.
I have a friend to is selling his vogue for 3.5 million, he already bought another vogue for 85m so do you really think maintenance is his problem. My neighbor has abandoned his Panamera afte4 changing gearbox twice, he bought another car.
That you see an abandoned car doesn't mean the owner is unable to fuel it or maintain it bro.
I have two cars currently on their way, do you really think I would be driving my currents cars when they arrive?
You think I would put my kids in a car that can break down on their way to school when they have another car, I go keep them one side if I find buyer fine, if I be find buyer them dey their.
Not every abandoned car is because of lack of ability for the owner to maintain.
All these small small suzuki running around how are they being maintained.

Maintainance and repair na two different things ohhh...
You maintain a car so that you don't have to repair the car.
You repair the car when e don spoil.

Okay oo. When they are in office, they won't do anything but when they leave office, they will be giving advice which they didn't use when they were in office

Did you even take time to read the article before commenting?
Go back, read it, understand it and come back to delete this.

Reno is 50 and is still an unreasonable chap.
A 50 yr old than talks like a 15yr old.

I use to think the guy was a brilliant chap. All of sudden , from no where it was as if his brain was uprooted and replaced with ogiri.

He is so unreasonable that he worked with President GEJ and is today recognized by president Tinubu on his birthday.
Your local government chairman is yet to know of your existence

Abeg whi go snap am?

Very commendable.
Lagos is the only state that really has the bragging right to seek secession.
She is a country on her own

benalvino3:
you sound like a human with the brain of a lice.

i said you are the poor person. I never said everyone in nigeria is poor. Try and apply critical thinking before you respond to people.

If you were as smart you said you were you would countered me with superior points.

But instead of thinking critically to give a good response to the comment you chose insults.

Lol.....
A smart person knows better than calling a stranger poor.
I have come to realize that poor people are the once who are quickest to call others poor....
The discussion actually has nothing to do with our financial status but here you are continually calling men poor.
Lol.....
You can't be rich with this small mind.
You couldn't have lived in the UK and US and still think like this.
Funniest thing is I live in the UK, M currently in Nigeria tho.but you don't see me bragging about it do you?
UK na person village I no fit dey brag about am.
Bring that your small shoulder down. You never reach there.
That small money wer you get na another person pocket money

willzy0909:
So what is stoped you from getting Simon ekpa...? I doubt Naina govt can do jack

You said this before the government did Jack to Kano...
You want the government to come out and outlined their plans in public?
Where una dey see all these mumu thoughts from.
If they had come out to tell you what they were doing to get Kanu would they have gotten him?
That is how you want the government to tell you everything they are doing about getting the bandits in Abuja, as if the bandits are not reading the same news and watching the same TV. If they had told you their plans would they be able to burst them the way they are doing right now?

Originalsly:
They just said " bringing in" ... which implies "importing from abroad". If it is a local company then there shouldn't be a problem. The buses are all owned and operated by the city ... these would not .. so it will be for the individuals to maintain and repair and this was my concern. People have brought in Range Rovers and other the high end Benz and BMWs .... you would think they consider the maintenance factors but realize they didn't when you see them abandoned upandan. Just saying.

I didn't say they are produced in Nigeria, I said assembled.
The company is right there in VI.
They assemble all their cars here.

2. Looks how you have never bought a brand new car before. Cars come with warranty, and the company does the maintenance for an agreed number of years.
3. I don't see how someone can pull out 50 to 150 million and not have the money to maintain it anyways but of you have seen people like that, I bring you good news, their foolishness is not a general illness

benalvino3:
I Lived in England, Worked in England, returned to Nigeria, worked for NNPC, and then left for the United States where I am currently working. the only person poor here is you and you are poor in reasoning.

I am not a Fan of building infrastructures, not using them, or letting them deteriorate they renovate it and then let it deteriorate again. the next thing you will hear is the country is borrowing money to pay civil servants after all the looting from this project

You are so smart you think everyone living in Nigeria is poor, yes you are very smart.
Didn't ask for your CV anyways,but I understand how those with low self esteem are quick to show off.

That aside.
When you lack knowledge there is nothing wrong with asking, you said you were smart, you should have known that.
If you know the number of young people who go the stadium every morning and evening you won't be spewing this trash.

I once lived at Abesan estate, we set up the first basket ball court there, we called it Sewage, it was right beside a sewage. I went there many years ago and they had moved to Pius field where the local government had build a basket ball court, many youths turn out there in the mornings and evenings. The Basket ball court served as a long tennis court and a judo training ground for kids,people went there to play foot ball every morning and evening it was a community.
Right now that place has been converted to a mini stadium, better facilities that are managed by the government.
Will all these development went on people were still hungry, some young people came to play basket ball hungry, but sport brought joy, we settled many disputes that started on the streets on the basket ball court.....

You lived in the UK and US yet you don't know what sports does to the minds of young people...
...
As you brag about living in the UK and US remember say na people village be that.
It's really no big deal.
Living there really hasn't made you smart.
You are the evidence that location doesn't reduce stupidity

"Bringing in'? ... from where?... is at what cost? ... so forex is available. When will the charging stations be ready? ... what happens until such time? ... and most important... when something goes wrong ... who is certified to fix it? ... Kareem to the rescue?.... just curious

So you think people who at bringing in such things would not have evaluated all these?
Do you know the time and money that goes into research and study before a project like this comes to light?
The BRT buses running on electricity, have they come to your house to beg for your generator ever since they started operation?
If they haven't, what makes you think Lagos state government can't make provisions for the tiny cars.
By the way, the cars are assembled in Nigeria, the company is right here in Lagos

IyaTola:


This would create more traffic on the island. There's just one road that leads from Lekki down to Ibeju Lekki and beyond, no alternative route or alternative means of transportation (rail/water)

A business minded person should be thinking of creating a charging station for these buses.

Why are you people so against development.
Re people not buying cars everyday in Lagos?
Do you know how many cars are sold a day in Lagos.
Why do people just hate anything good the government does?
What type of evil heart do you people Have?
You are continually allergic to good development.
#spits

The hate Nigerians have for Nigeria is unspeakable.
If tgisbhad happened in Nigeria.
Hmmmmmm

dawnomike:
Following the post COP28 footsteps of the UAE.

UAE is passing the use out gradually and not abruptly the way uncle Sanwo wanna do his.

You are right but the UAE is an entire nation and Lagos is a state in an nation.
Mind you the UAE is not facing the same environmental challenges as Lagos so it would be foolish to apply the same strategy as the UAE.
That said.
Don you think Nigeria as a nation is applying theirs gradually starting with Lagos?
Why do Nigerians hate policies that are aimed at bringing positive change.
The entire state should continue to endure the environmental challenges brought by the packs because a few people sell it and make a living from it?
How exactly do Nigerians think?

benalvino3:
you will always wonder because you are blind.

The development of the country is not centered on your poverty, if you are hungry get off your lazy ass and work like everyone is doing.
We won't stop developing the nation because you are hungry

abobote:
Why are they renovating it, it's Nigeria hosting another nation's cup.

Feed hungry people first

Talks like this make me wonder what Nigerians really do with their brains.
It's pathetic

Dsimmer:
You're the one dull who can't answer the question asked of you after your baseless post. Simply let Aiyedatiwa be. Stop blaming him for what he knows nothing about.

You expect me to answer a question that is completely outside my opinion?
An opinion your are forcing on me.
I have repeatedly said no one is blaming Lucky for Aketis death, but you airhead has refused to comprehend and you keep insisting instead of you call someone around to explain to you..
If your brain no fit carry am no put mouth Abeg.
I get allergy for people with some kain brain deficiency

Dsimmer:
What event exactly?

In fact, we could say Akeredolu's family could have allowed him take some time off to take care of his health while he was sick rather than make it worse. His death is a sad one. Condolences to his family. But it doesn't mean Aiyedatiwa should be blamed.

Question:
Are you just dull and have problem understanding English or you just want continue insisting that I am blaming Lucky for Aketis death.
Please don't quote me again until you understand the simple English I have written up there
