PoliticsRe: "We Do Not Abduct Citizens": DSS Replies Amnesty Over Disappearance Of Persons by Freethinker87: 9:24am On Sep 01, 2022
MyVILLAGEpeople:
grin grin grin

The DSS used to be very respected under the military regimes and the PDP administrations as a professional and covert organization that rarely follow media frenzies. But since Buhari came onboard and started using them to harass judges and intimidate the opposition. They have become a laughing stock and seen as mere attacks dogs of Buhari.
The DSS has never been a respectable organization. They were the SSS under Abacha, and SS under Babangida. They've always been thugs to corrupt regimes and conducted state sponsored disappearances of Civilians.

Changing their name does not make them respectable.

The Cable themselve admitted that Lagos is the fourth largest economy in Africa.

So what is actually the difference between 3rd and 4th? That’s just a slip by 1 position.

So much for fact checking.
TheCable works for Tinubu. the only reason for this fact checking is to highlight that Lagos was 4th largest economy from 2012 - 2015. Every other story in the article is just window dressing.

And by the way, Lagos was forth largest economy in Sub-Saharan Africa under Fashola, not anymore.

This is not a busy street, there are nobody on the street. This is within an estate. I am very sure if it was a business district, no sane government or administration would let parking be done like this.

Oga, I have travelled out and they don't park their cars on the streets and go and watch movies like we do here. (Can you fantom going to ShopRite in Ikeja or VI and parking your car on the street adjacent on a work day?).

Business outfit such as Silverbird made judgemental error by not providing for parking space in the design of the VI galleria.

You may not remember, but years ago people in Lagos would put chairs and canopy on Lagos streets with reckless and block streets but the government had to ban such.

The number of people and vehicles on streets of Lagos keeps increasing everyday and it not going to stop. There is traffic bottlenecks everywhere. So let people park their cars within their compound so that we can get to our destinations on time devoid of traffic gridlocks.

Time na money!!! We don't need to be wasting man- hours and scarce resources in the traffic everyday of our lives.

Bros we know what we are saying, below statement was from my cousin, who's residing in UK presently.
" How expensive is to have a car in London?
Running a car in London is dear. You have to pay insurance, road tax, fuel, maintenance and plus the penalties-touched a bus lane, congestion charge zone and parking places during restricted hours.

For a small car, road tax is a bit cheaper but for a family car is dearer. It depends what car you would like to have.

Mine, I paid £25 per month for my road tax and my insurance is around £20 a month and I have not added yet some penalties I had.

How many times I got fine just for parking my car on Sunday in Westminster. I thought it was at weekend but it was not. I forgot to read a small sign lurking in the dark. You see how expensive is London for motorists. I paid £60 within 14 days. If you lapsed paying within 14 days, you will pay more than a hundred quid.

However, if you are not used of having a car, better not to have one in London because public transport is very efficient.

But for those who are used of having a car, it is very difficult to let car go. I feel like my car is my faithful friend"
LOL village boy living somewhere in the slums of Osogbo said he lived in the UK and paid £20 for road tax and car insurance. FOH cheesy grin

If that will reduce the indiscriminate parkings that contribute majorly to traffic congestions, I'm of the opinion that all state governments in Nigeria should adopt the method. Imagine people parking at junctions and narrow roads. Even when they notice that their action has caused holdups, they still wouldn't budge.

So if you go to Silverbird Cinemas to enjoy yourself or shop, other road users should bear the brunt of your indiscriminate parking.

Why not tell Silverbird and others to provide adequate parking for you customers. Most of these business owners/ shopping malls will build up their parcel of land without considering provision for parking spaces.

Lagos is just waking up! Mind you the drains and the roads are government properties, thats why we don't do parties on the road again just like back in the days ( it gave birth to event centres).

So look on bright side where our roads will be free of gridlock caused by indiscriminate parking on the roads just like the tanker trailers do.

You can go into the business of parking cars of the road (I bet you this will create businesses and jobs like multi level parking facilities all around Lagos).
Even in the most advanced civilizations in the world, there are legal street parkings. How's the Op-ed photo attached obstructing traffic in any way?

Lagos Boy! oya let me help you out, I have time to help one ill informed Lagosian.

He revolutionize the IGR collection of Lagos State from 600 Million monthly to 2 Billion (2007). This system today generates 7 billion monthly now and its used in other states and at the Federal Level. (Economic Sector)

On restructuring, he was the first Governor who led the Creation of 37 LCDAs out of 20 LGA after a successful Referendum in Lagos (Successful Management of 20 LGAs and 37 LCDAs during his tenure) and they still stand till today. Back then Lagos was denied Federal Allocation but during his tenure Lagos State never owed staff salary to any staff at Local and State levels. Other states like Ebonyi copied the LCDA creation.

Creation of LCDAs was his idea of bringing governance closer to the people and he succeeded in that big time. This where the RESTRUCTURING agitation started from.

The total Federal allocation denied Lagos back then was released to the Raji Fashola administration by Late Yaradua when he became head of State after OBJ.

(Environmental Protection Sector) Phase One of Lagos Bar Beach Reclamation project was completed before he left office. He already planned what to do next which was Eko Atlantic City which is standing tall today. That's the Next Mega City on the Ocean (E

(Investment into Lagos) Lekki Free Trade Zone was conceived and started during his time, even Aliko Dangote confirmed that. the Port is almost completed, Dangote oil Refinery is located there.

(Security) He up graded what Operation Sweep Security Outfit, that gave birth to RRS today and the funding for the outfit outside government financing. If you don't know RRS is funded by the private sector. He introduced Neighborhood Watch which is still working today..... the State Police agitation started with this idea.

He created LATSMA for traffic management in Lagos.

One Day Governor for school kids, its still happening yearly. This is to encourage children in public schools to aspire to and see governance from close quarters.

He created LAWMA to tackle the huge refuse heaps in Lagos back then.

He opened up the Lekki corridor for housing development

The Expansion of Lekki expressway

BAT was the first governor and still the only governor to conducted (LCDA creation) Referendum and Household Survey back then. To determine how to plan using population parameters approve by World Bank and other multinational agencies.

Oya, please lecture me!
*Taxing hawkers, petty traders, cart pushers and people living below the poverty line is not revolutionary. It's regressive actually.

*FG did not seize Lagos state allocation. Tinubu received state allocation in full for 8 years. Only Local Govt allocation was withheld because Tinubu created additional 37 LCDAs unconstitutionally and demanded additional funding from the FG.

*Operation sweep had nothing to do with Tinubu, it was a FG initiative instituted long before Tinubu became Governor. I think you were born after 2000 cos you're giving ignorant coconut head Gen Z vibes.

*Every other thing you mentioned are lies and cosmetic governance. He didn't fix bar beach, eko Atlantic, lekki exp. way, or developed the Lekki FTZ. Fashola did.

*Those LATSMA and agencies he created was to fix his agbero boys before he left office. We can all see the nuisance they are on our roads. He also fixed them in Local Govt too.

Governor Makinde banned agbero's from operating and not NURTW and other transport Unions (Have you been to Oyo state to see how this ban is working, the union guys are every where?).

Lagos State has only one Iya Oloja. Be informed also that every market in the length and breath of Lagos and other parts of Nigeria have their respective Iya olojas and Baba olojas as may apply.

Are you sure you were born in Lagos? Maybe you were born after he left office or you were too young to understand Lagos before and during Tinubu's administration. I can understand that.

If you like, you can refuse to go online and search out his achievements as Governor, that's your own call. They are verifiable, nothing can be subtracted or added to it. Its already permanent, I can't change it, neither can you. (but I pray you don't fall victim of peddling facts that are contrary to what is already available online in the public domain).

On taxes, every country have their own peculiarities on taxation and revenue generation. That's the way it has worked. If you have alternatives, please be free to share with us your own strategy. Its a case of "You can't eat your cake and have it"

Lagos State can never be free for all, lest all hell will be let loose. Lagos is not free for all, can't be and will not be, even during pre-Colonial Lagos taxation was key to development.

I want to call you "Brother Get Education", please help me out, since when did "agberos become tax agents for Lagos State Government? On whoose order? or by which law? I need answers to this.....

From your comments, you don't even know how your taxes are deployed for development by government. This is unbelievable!!!. In this century and age a so called Lagosian (born and bred in Lagos), you don't even know how taxes are applied or what they are used for?

I have my doubts, you exist in a vacuum oblivious of what goes on around you.

Let me advice you, next time and before you come and make unverifiable comments, please all you need to do is carry out a simple search online and you will be surprised at the amount of facts out there.

My assignment for you, if you want to do yourself a favour is to firstly go online or visit the (LIRS) Lagos Inland Revenue Service and (FIRS) Federal Inland Revenue Service to learn what the revenues generated from taxes are used for.

I don't even want to discuss the violence that was Tinubu's Govt. He recruited so many agbero and holigans into local Govt. Funny enough, we knew these holigans personally, they were degenerates, people who should normally be in prison. How did they even make it into the local Govt?

Tinubu made sure we understood that his Govt will treat dissidents with violence. Agberos were so powerful, my God! I'll leave the violence to your imagination. Soldiers were not spared either. Agberos clashed with soldiers on numerous occasions and there were deaths on both sides.

Do you think students were going to school and market women were opening their shops when these crisis start?

You need to see how they behave when they come to collect their lockup shop, TV license or canopy levy. How they destroy wares of those who didn't have the money to pay on the spot. There were no receipts for these levies too.

Tinubu ruled Lagos state just as the medellin cartel ruled over the streets of Mexico. May God continue to bless Gov. Raji Fashola.

The cases you refer to were all the issues that bedeviled Lagos before Tinubu came on-board as Governor in 1999.
Tinubu's "Master Stroke" came when he gathered Notable Nigerian Professionals like the Late Professor Olikoye Ransome-kuti (Late Fela's elder brother) these calibre of people were given committees based on their professional background and each came up with a plan of action for Lagos based on sectors they had expertise on.

It was based on these various committees' reports back in the days (from 1999 - 2007) that he appointed the likes of Yemi Oshibajo, Dele Alake, Wale Edun, Leke Pitan, Raji Fashola and others to implement these Blue Print.
So Tinubu met these problems in Lagos and he didn't have to fix them as Governor. Mehn, where did they bring you guys from?

OK, these "technocrats" he gave portfolios, mention the things they fixed. I want to hear you mention one thing that was fixed in Lagos under Tinubu.

I remember it got worse under Tinubu, the taps stopped working, the roads were delapidated, education suffered. For the first time, our teachers protested non payment of salaries. Some started selling us puff-puff in class. The only sectors that worked were agbero, iya oloja and omo-onile.

I hope you know nobody can chase the so called "Agberos" off the roads in Nigeria. Those guys have a union called NURTW an affiliate of NLC and years ago they obtained a SUPREME COURT judgement to let them operate on the roads (please go into history) that's why no government have been able to curtail them in any state of the federation. The Iya Olojas and Baba Olojas are not and have never been tax collection agents. It has never happened in any states in Nigeria.

Also let us get this right, Tinubu's Administration conceived and started these projects and handed over to successors who continued. Go and check the facts. The Truth can not be hidden.

In the case of taxing everybody. Proper taxation is governance in action. That is how its done in all the advanced countries (Europe, Asia and North America)! In these climes dem no born you well make you work and not pay taxes. I want you ask to any Nigerian you know out there, who is either legally or illegally staying abroad.

These so called cart pushers, hawkers, petty traders, market men and women, small and medium scale business owners, artisans, hustlers, aboki, me-suya and many more want to identify with Lagos. They want to do business in Lagos without any hassles but don't want to contribute to its development. This attitude is not the way to go.

Contribute your little quota through tax, that's why the State is working. All hands must be on deck.
*Gov. Makinde banned NURTW in Oyo since 2019 and heaven did not fall.

*Who's the Baba Oloja of Lagos state? The only Oloja of Lagos market is Tinubu's daughter. You're not very smart.

*Tinubu neither conceive nor started anything in Lagos. Mention one thing he fixed in Lagos. I don't need to verify any fact. I was born and raised here. I witnessed Lagos under Tinubu firsthand.

*Everybody isn't taxed in advanced country. There's a benchmark for taxation and people earning minimum wage are exempted from taxation. Have you even been to the airport? You sound stupid bro. I've been paying taxes to LASG since I turned 16 and I still don't know how they spend my taxes.

For the first time in history, Owo Chairman became a compulsory tax traders must pay lest their goods are seized. There was nothing different between LASG and the medelline cartel.

Bar Beach Erosion Project was conceived and the Phase One was completed when Tinubu was about to leave Office after his second term in office. It was commissioned during the campaign for Raji Fashola. Tinubu's Administration also conceived the Eko Atlantic City, Lekki Free Trade Zone, Lekki Port, the Blue and Red Light Rail, BRT (Bus Rapid Transport) bus lane and buses, Expanding the TAX net rather than increasing taxes to generate more IGR, LATSMA, Internet Facility within the Secretariat, Alausa-Ikeja, Lagos State Economic Blue Print and Master Plan, Private Waste Disposal under LAWMA, Decentralization of Local Government Administration by creating LCDAs (after conducting a Referendum for Local Government creation according to the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria) and many more.

He was the only Governor who introduced Private Electricity through ENRON that was frustrated by President Obasanjo. This same electricity is now in place through IPP and Private Partnership in the Ikeja Secretariat and was completed by Raji Fashola.

Most of these projects can not be completed at one go, they take time and require huge funding. A good administrator looks into the future and ensures sustainability to create more wealth for the people he governs.

Fashola, Ambode and Sanwo-olu are those who added more value to what was already going on in Lagos.

Please verify your facts.
So Tinubu no longer built these projects but conceived them in 2006 during the electioneering before he left office.

Well, we want a Government that builds. We're skeptical of Governors who dream up developmental ideas only during elections.

Enough of these unnecessary propaganda. Tinubu was a mediocre Governor at best. I was born in Lagos, and i grew up here. I experienced Tinubu's administration firsthand. It was terrble.

The public means of transportation under Tinubu was Molue, not BRT. BRT was Fashola's brainchild. The Oshodi terminal you agbadorians like to flaunt was Ambode's achievement.

Eko Atlantic was Fashola's achievement too. Go and verify.

Obojuju:
The truth be told that Peter Obi Presidency is what Nigeria need at this perilous times after APC have destroyed Nigeria in all its ramification in the past 8 years. APC is an evil party and Tinubu is too arrogant and currently empty in brain due to excess drugs. He is sick. He thinks Nigeria belongs to him. . And the youths of this nation will open a new and wide pathway that will put him in his place. He is also too corruption inclined and sees that system as normal. His Muslim - Muslim ticket is also a sign of disrespect and shows how he prioritizes personal interest above collective interest of the nation.
Atiku's only and major problem is that he will definitely steal heavily, because he is very loose. So it hard to trust him.
If Osibanjo had been picked by APC, perhaps we would have had 2 viable choices at least, even thou he may be used as a puppet.
Right now, the best option for any genuine and objective Nigerian is Peter Obi. Most of those craving for Tinubu and Atiku are those benefiting from their corrupt flows. So they don't want to be jobless or broke. Nigeria will be free. Peter Obi is the next President of Nigeria.
Tinubu is not "too corruption inclined". Tinubu is perhaps the most corrupt black man in all of Africa. Please take note.

Why are Lagosians so foolish fgs?

Groundbreaking and 3D image is being celebrated by supposedly educated people.

Where is the 4th mainland bridge after its groundbreaking 17 years ago?
Where is the Lagos light rail after its groundbreaking 15 years?
Where is the Lekki airport and seaport after its groundbreaking 14 years ago?
Where is the Badagry seaport after its groundbreaking 10 years ago?

...I can go on and on.

It's either those on the FP celebrating are paid miscreants or Lagosians are the most foolish people on the planet.
Vote these people out.
