Try to be more resourceful using the internet . WTH is "most dirtiest state" It is not everything you see or read on the internet that is accurate or an undisputed fact. Have you been to Newark and Trenton in NJ or Flatbush and Bed Stuy in Brooķlyn in NY.Does that make NY or NY the dirtiest states in US cos I have seen terrible sights around those hoods. What about Baltimore rated the poorest city in US based on living conditions. Will you now say Maryland is the dirtiest state. California has one of the most beautiful sights and clean cities in US from Bev hills,San Bernadino,Hollywod etc . You can not use the homeless issues in LA and Bay area to lay that claim of being the dirtiest. Do you know how many cities are in California,in fact it has the highest number of cities that is the reason for having the highest electoral college votes.
SARSCoV2: Hello! Mr. Americana, Can you tell me in one sentence the dirtiest state in US?
You claim to reside in The USA and still arguing a known fact. Its shouldnt be an argument if you reside in the USA. California owns the trophy for the dirtiest state.
Dont mind him,probably an unexposed fella. I used to live very close to Villa park the stadium for Aston villa in Birmingham. Match day are always helll with litters everywhere but the litters will disappear by the time you wake up the next day. The club compensate residents within the postcode with discounted tickets for two home games for the inconveniences. .
Revolva: Imagine a state like California has up to 25 stadiums ...mehn America is a very good place to invest in sports ...
I never even count other states in America own stadiums oo
Shameful statement how can Cali be dirty ...u don't even know anytin about Cali ...
Go read about Cali economy ...you go fear ..say even the state is richer than. The whole of Africa ..so STFU ..wetin dirty there ...
California is a state not a city. Have you been to San Jose,Cupertino or the Capital Sacramento. Very clean and lovely places. San Francsco used to be a great place till they allow homeless and junkies run it down all in the name of liberalism.
SARSCoV2: California never ceases to expose that its the dirtiest city in the US
If this quote below is really attributed to Buhari then he has taken hypocrisy to the highest level..Didnt he claim he borrowed money from a bank too to buy the form to contest in 2015? [quote author= post=103169396]All the goats that ate our Yams from the national treasury must vomit it.
When you fight corruption, Corruption fights back.
All corrupt politicians that raped and looted our darling nation blindly will all end miserably and painfully in life, along with their supporters, no matter the party they are. Evil ends await them all.
No be curse, Na FACT!
Wait, We remember again wailers problem with President Buhari fighting corruption selectively. So, mention ONE name among those in EFCC case without a case to defend. If your hero Presidents had fought corruption with one leg, by now shebi it is the second leg that President Buhari will be fighting.
So what is your problem with the corrupt facing the music? We know y'all have no sane reply, but your usual bla blabla bla. If President Buhari did not catch them, somebody else will. But stop crying in defence of the corrupt being asked to face the music. If your uncle is corrupt, tell him to face it, and stop shouting how about other thieves.
You too are guilty of commenting based on headline. The bridge collapsed because it was hit by a truck,not on its ow .
Akudaisi: do you even know how many years that bridge has been there, please get sense and they would even sue the parties involved if it is found they used fake materials after proper investigation,no matter how bad US is Nigeria is 1000 times more worse
You got your stuff well put together. I'm a big fan of any intelligent write up.
obailala: Zainab is also borrowing pay salaries and the govt is doing a desperate job to hide this. But the one that cant be hidden is that Zainab is borrowing to service previously borrowed debts.
If you really think the over N20tr borrowed in the last 6 years have been sunk fully into infrastructure, then you must be a novice. Kindly point out the completed infrastructure that's commensurate with over N20tr borrowed funds?
Last time I checked, all the major projects across the country are being financed with microscopic sums per year; Lagos-Ibadan road, Ore-Sagamu, Abuja-Lokoja, Onitsha-Enugu, East-West road, PH-Enugu road etc., none of these major road projects have individually received actual funding up to N20bn in any single calendar year, and that explains why progress on their construction has been extreeeeemly slow.
Even Lagos-Ibadan rail was built with a loan of less than $2bn (less than N1tr), so what really took up the over N20tr borrowed funds? You really think it was all infrastructure as the govt claims? Except you're alternatively saying the money is being stolen in bulk.
It is actually a soulless city just like Dubai. Most created cities are like that. Milton Keynes in UK another example is so cool to live in but very boring. Meanwhile nearby old Bletchley about 4miles distance is so full of life and vibe.
NewDelhi: Abuja na one hell of a dry and boring city.
Eeyah sorry kids, me and una papa no be mates for anything okay so swerve and look for your level coz I go feed you and your ur generations for life. If you have ever lived in Lagos, you'd understand Abuja is less fun compared to Lagos and can look boring to someone who spent a while in Lagos. In Lagos, there is fun everywhere. In Abuja, there's no fun except you search rigorously for it. There's nothing in that Abuja, it's a city created for civil servants, retirees and old rich people who need a place to have rest of mind before they die. You can't even go to Abuja and say you want to hustle lol except something is wrong with your brains. Lagos is far way better in everything.
"The plant which is a private investment to be undertaken by Messrs CCEEC" You can not fool all the people. Why did you have to make a deceptive headline that Buhari is building a manufacturing plant when it is not the case.
Rissamenti: Nigeria To Wave Goodbye To Imported Trains, and Build Them IN NIGERIA Instead. . Mr President is a man of few words, which is why news like this always surprises Nigerians.
But as we're speaking, Nigeria is building a HUGE plant in Kajola, Ogun State, for the manufacturing of railway stock including railway coaches and other railway equipment.
The manufacturing plant is part of the conditionalities Mr President gave to the Chinese company CCECC, before they could undertake all these railway projects we are seeing today.
The railway manufacturing plant construction was inaugurated by VP Prof. YemI Osinbajo in 2019, with very little fanfare or extravagance, just like many of Buhari's silent but highly transformative projects set to take this country to the next level.
Kudos Mr President, and VP Osinbajo, on this great stride in our march to industrialisation.
Kajola Rail Wagon Assembly Plant to Create 5,000 Jobs - Osinbajo
The Vice President of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo says the Rail Wagon Assembly Plant construction in Nigeria will generate about 5,000 direct and indirect jobs when completed and boost socio-economic activities.
Osinbajo made this disclosure while performing the Official Ground Breaking Ceremony for the construction of the plant in Kajola, Ogun on Saturday.
The Nigerian vice president Osinbajo speaking about the Rail Wagon Assembly Plant construction said: "The plant which is a private investment to be undertaken by Messers CCECC, is central in the production of rolling stock, spare parts and maintenance of equipment needed for the railway modernisation programme being implemented by this administration.
"This ceremony is not just another event, it is a historic turning point. For us, the railway is not only an alternative and comfortable mode of travel.
"It holds the master key to transforming commerce in Nigeria and across the continent. By linking our ports to rail lines and now, building the rolling stock locally, import and export business within, into and out of Africa's largest market will never be the same.
"When completed, it is expected that the plant would produce some parts of the wagons for the Lagos-Ibadan and Abuja-Kaduna rail lines, but also for the central rail lines and to satisfy the needs of other rail operators within the West- African sub-region.
"The plant would offer an important platform for engineers, technicians, artisans and other professionals to gain the specialized skills required for the production and maintenance of rolling stock.
"This will invariably conduce to spin-off businesses in the region of operation and across the country wherever rail networks are in existence.
"The plant is expected to generate about five thousand (5,000) direct and indirect jobs," Osinbajo said.
Gauging the man's expression,there is no joy radiating. Shocking is the hypocritical prayer on "haram" gift.
Newsmic: Nigerian cross-dresser, Idris Okuneye popularly known as Bobrisky has taken to his social media handles to celebrate his father's birthday today June 15, and he also gifted his father a Lexus SUV to celebrate his new age, IgbereTV reports.
The crossdresser also gave his father other gifts including a cake and money.
Can you now juxtapose what caused riots in the North in 2002 when a columnist made a comment about Mohammed and beauty pageant contestants and this incendiary statement by Muric.
vedaxcool: There was no comparison but somehow educated South cannot read and comprehend they immediately resort to foolish angst. The statement made was simple to comprehend it took a lesson from the life of Jesus to explain the typical human resort to ungratefulness.
He even put that small Bodija bridge called "Guider" a la Gov Raji Rasaki as an achievement for a Governor that received the highest inflows in the history of that state and spent 8 years in all. I'm speechless .
Zenithpeak: This is the symptoms and effect of brain haemorrhage....
Ajimobi built Cocoa Mall !!!!
Old Ife/Alakia road that is still under construction??!
You are making real sense but nobody is ready to listen to you because of antecedent. You are trying to paint picture of racism here but you are worse as you have been displaying hatred against your fellow black men .Eschew tribalism and you will stand on a higher moral ground. More shocking is that it appears you have been educated abroad. That is the more reason you should be above petty tribalism as you should have been exposed to diversity.
Please do not call me IPOB,that will be upsetting.
Simplyleo: The calculation that favored the Black was quality point average while the later calculation which favored the White was unweighted grade point average
The question now is; since the courses are tagged "unweighted", how could that have raised the aggregate weighted points of the White students?
For instance, in universities, some courses are not examinable, but the course work are still assessed, scored and ascribed some weight for the purpose of calculating grade points.
His SANship is by the position he occupies not by career accomplishment. The AGF is automatically made a SAN now.
Raxxye: I thought the SAN title is only given to very intelligent lawyers who have made impact in the legal profession. With Malami's SAN title, I'm thinking I was wrong all along.
Your education is not a waste. You have done a good job putting that fella punching above his weight down.
Amotolongbo: Thank God you know this and stop being hypocritical. Cos I wonder what it means to say someone you don’t know doesn’t have the understanding of international politics.
Can one imagine this? A continent relegates her sense and ego, dropping all its ancestral, local and mental resources to rely on chunks dropping from the table of other continents. If you really understand what sense is, would that really happen? A continent relies on other continents for survival and still runs to them for solution on a little problem which could be solved at home. What else could that be likened to be if not mental slavery? What moral justification has Buhari to force patriotism on us, when all his children could not study in Nigeria, even to study and learn photography? Even a slight headache, London is the destination for treatment
First of all, Was Buhari mandated to open a twitter handle? Twitter is someone’s personal business, free entry and exit and not a monopolized media of information transportation. If you are not satisfied with their terms and conditions, take your exit. Buhari didn’t bring Twitter to Nigeria, so he can’t take it away from us. What we are experiencing is a show of ego. Twitter is housed in US, it deleted the tweets of the then US President, Donald Trump and also banned him from posting, Trump didn’t hammer twitter cos of that. All he thought was getting an alternative platform to convey his information.
How did the issue started? President Buhari made twitter posts which some Nigerians felt offensive and threat to their existence and they launched a great protest for the post to be deleted, it was deleted so what is bad in that?
Imagine! This is why Africa will never develop. Daily wailing against the West and developed countries. Please erase this you just posted. It makes us in African appear senseless. A project was started by a civilian administration and the military toppled the government, took over and abandoned all the project set in motion by the toppled government for a long time, yet you still blame the West. I understand that even if you can’t impregnate your wife in Africa, it is the West. In life there are forces which work for and against the development of matters, it depends on you to find a way around the forces against
Everyone is able to point to Thomas Sankara cos he died prematurely. Many African leaders with premature death were so lucky to be considered heroes and heroines cos they didn’t have the long term to exude their flaws. If Buhari wasn’t given the chance to rule again, many Nigerians will still be of the opinion that he was never given the chance to develop Nigeria, thinking he has the ability to do so.
The growth of Africa doesn’t lie in the ability of the leaders to oppose the West or stand against anything White, but the utilization of the local potentials (human and natural) and bilateral trade (not “indebtable” loans or charity from the West of Orients) with the west or whosoever to technically and psychologically fend off the West from her affairs.
There is a difference between autism and down syndrome please let us get it right. Most of the technological breakthroughs are cracked by autistic folks. They are geniuses. Autism has to do with people with withdrawn social interactions while down syndrome is a genetic chromosome disorder hindering physical development or coordination.
ikorodureporta: D guy autism small sef... D day wey I go one welfare home, when we enter the house of the inmates, I shock! This na plenty adults wey no even fit stand. Some were even tied to stabilize them
God bless you.Most people dont know that confraternity or sorority for females are quite normal in universities abroad and they are mostly for exceptional students. National Association of Seadogs NAS had taken their association out of campuses for close to 40 years now due to prevailing conditions . What WS started with the magnificent 7 was noble and it was an open group not this clandestine and vicious stuff going on now. Btw,Ode to the Capon Blood for standing tall at 87,may your strength increases with your age.
AustineE1: The topic says Pyrate 'confraternity',I wonder why this people above me are shouting 'cultism',is it that some people cannot comprehend or is it ignorance of the highest order. Merriam Webster dictionary defines confraternity as a society devoted to a religious or a charitable cause. I certainly know from information available to all, that the pyrate confraternity is a charity organization,made up of like minds with the goal of creating an egalitarian society where the strong protects the weak and men are weighed by the strength of their character and not by the colour of their skins,religion or ethnicity. Little wonder why they are highly revered in and outside Nigeria for notable achievements in humanitarian activities and social reengineering. I guess if this isn't a noble society of men,they likes of Prof Wole Soyinka and hundreds of notable men who associates with this group,could have dissociated for preservation of their reputation and image.
The head of the military is an igbo man.( delta) The head of the army is from north east. ( zamfara) The head of the navy is from the middle belt ( nassarawa) The head of the airforce is from south west.( osun state)
Where is the nepotism?
We can all see the sentiment, contradictions and ignorance of the writer, an igbo man is already the head of the military, we should also give the head of the army to an igbo man, how will diversity and national unity work?
There are many tribes in Nigeria whose natives have never been in any significant position in Nigeria, why didn't he fight for them?
Very infirtuating excuse .Security clearance in your own country. When they travel to another country for common ceremonies,who issues them security clearance . I remember Obasanjo visiting Lagos after ikeja bomb blast within 24ours. Even though he made some uncouth remarks to people heckling him,but showing up meant he was on top of his job.
FarahAideed: So it's the same protocol that is stopping Buhari from :
Doing Media chats for 5 years now
Doing regular presidential briefs
Visiting states on working visits
From visiting centres of Tragedies
from even going to his office ( he claims to work from home and hardly comes to the presidential office )
OP you can keep fooling yourself over selfish gains but all NIGERIANs know by now that Buhari is a Truant and and Absentee President
See as this hireling and a quisling wants to twist fact. Tinubu himself recognizes the role played by Pa Ayo Adebanjo and co in making him the governor in 1999. He was losing the primaries to Engr Williams when they cancelled Ikorodu LG to ensure Funsho Willians did not win to compensate Tinubu for being part of their Nadeco struggle. Fyi Chief Adebanjo was the electoral committee chairman for AD in Lagos state in 1998. Today whenever Chief Adebanjo criticizes Tinubu or Buhari,you guys will insult him bycalling him Afenifebi
Vaughanlanrewaj: You're not being truthful sir. Pa Alfred Rewane, Iyalode of Egbaland, Mama Tejuosho, Pa Abraham Adesanya among many others are pantheon today on account of that sacrifice they made in defence of the Yoruba course. The likes of Asiwaju Tinubu are those who survived it and stood against attempt by those you support to impose the late Engr Funsho Williams who served Abacha on us. And thank God for that eternal vigilance. We would have lost a great opportunity for the new Lagos I witnessed in my lifetime. God bless Nigeria.
The Yoruba leaders that received bullets in their heads are the ones you Tinubu's disciples are calling afenifebi today.
Vaughanlanrewaj: I have reminded you again that talk is cheap. While you focused on the negatives is because you chose to. Writing with hatred, bigotry and resentment you admitted is bad because you will only write and no single credible alternative will you proffer. In this my life time, I have seen worst times in this country but we didn't stop praying and today, we have something to show for our patriotism, faith and hardwork in Lagos. We were living so bad in Lagos State at some point in time that even on street corner dumpsites, seeing decomposing human corpses were common sights, we experienced bomb blasts and our bold Yoruba leaders were receiving bullets in the head yet they kept on fighting and today, the same Lagos is the 5th largest economy in Africa. If you have never been part of the journey, you can't appreciate the sacrifices valiant patriots made. Buhari will come and go but Nigeria will remain. We knew then that the military will come and go but Nigeria will remain. It eventually happened. Yoruba will not leave Nigeria. It is the unpatriotic elements among us who will leave Nigeria for us.
If in your fabled country, you are faced with economic challenges, call for secession and if the smaller one face economic challenges, call for secession again and keep balkanizing but that won't happen in Nigeria. Good night sir. God bless Nigeria.
Fish brain,why is the mother crying when it is obvious it is failed parenting. Wore that kind of outfit to family wedding and she wasnt reprimanded by any close family member . Btw,I am sick of girls shaking their racks and rumps in videos.It is getting boring already.
Those muslims are Arabs that opted to stay behind and did not move to Palestenian run West Bank or Gaza after Israel took over after winning the Israel Arab war. They are not Jews/Hebrews.
LibertyRep: Something that still baffles me is that there are more Muslims (16.6%) in Israel than Christians (2.10%) yet Nigerian Muslims are against Israel while their Christian counterpart are in support
Perhaps we have all forgotten that Palestinian Christians are also at the receiving ends of the attacks and occupation by Israel.
The world will be a better place if we all stand for the oppressed instead of viewing things from the religious angle at all times.
You are doing a failed hack job. Have you forgotten GEJ just became a substantive President two months before that post was made .Reno was appointed his media aide when he won 2011 election.
Anyway whatever that Tope did was of benefit to me when I found myself in SF and needed something done urgenty .I would have flown about 5-6 hours to NY or ATL to get it done.
Vaughanlanrewaj: This story is likely true. The facebook post below was made in 2010 by Reno as social media aide to HE GEJ and it recognises that name of that lady based in California. As at then in 2010, everyone knows that Reno was the one in charge of social media handles of HE GEJ.
There's a connection between the woman named in this report and Reno so I think The Will has credible information and source for this story.
Is that not same nepotism he is accusing PMB about? He used his wife's handle to post a request and pushed it to President GEJ who approved it and he now used the same handle to announce it. I doubt if GEJ knew that the Tuokpe Onuwaje has a romantic relationship with Reno.
Anyone remembers Beaf of nairaland of those days or The mysterious case of Wendell Simlin ? Maybe Reno Omokri is not even his real name!
2020 estimated population of Palestinians in both Gaza and West bank is about 5million .So how can Christians there at 20% be 2.6m. The current skirmishes is happening mainly in Gaza . You have stated a wrong stats on religion demograohy here. Palestine is made up of 93% muslims,6% Christians and 1% Druze.
Jones4190: Only 2% of Israel Population are Christians(177,000) of which 74 % are Judaism, 17% are Muslim, 1.6 person are Draze (Ismael religion). While 20% (2,600,000)of Palestine Population are Christians. Palestine christian (Gaza) has the largest number of Christian in Arab world.
But my friends in Nigeria think Israel is a Christian state while Palestine is a Muslim state.
