IGBO-SON: That's why I don't enjoy discussions with people who are more emotional than rational Baylesa doesn't control its resources, the FG does So what he's said, if you didn't view the video, is that the oil belongs to Nigeria and in essence Jigawa and every other state He also said the resources in Jigawa belongs to Bayelsa Until states begin to control their resources or Nigeria divides, what this man has said is correct However, personally I would suggest a regional system of government where all states control their resources so the oil in Bayelsa will truly belong to Baylesa but as it is today, that's not the case 6 Likes |

What's wrong with what he said? As at today, there is nothing like resource control by the federating units He's made a valid point and he also admitted that he's not afraid if Nigeria divides but we must sit to discuss The oil in Bayelsa belongs to Nigeria, which Jigawa is currently a part Until this not the case, the oil in Ijawland belongs to Jigawa like he said 5 Likes |

iterator25: The dude is getting 20th century locomotives.. what's there to celebrate When Lagos has as much money as the FG, maybe then we will build the kind of high speed rails currently operating between Lagos and Abuja Oponu iterator25: I'm a lagosian dude, lagos does not need 20th century trains, that's my point.. and Why must you always tribalize issues You're not from Lagos so park Even your aviation industry is littered with 20th Century aircrafts The trains are being refitted and refurbished like most trains across developed countries There are 20th century trains still running in the UK If we bought new trains and told you to pay N1,000 for a ride between Orile and Marina, would you be able to afford it? |

Every right thinking businessman will only invest in a place where the following are present: 1. Security 2. Market 3. Infrastructure The places he's invested in have them in reasonable proportions considering the nature of the businesses he's established in those domains Dangote feels more at ease relating with, employing, working with and investing in Yorubas and Yorubaland He has a keen business acumen and can smell a investors' haven a thousand miles away 1 Like 1 Share |

Instead of spending the fund on the purchase of books, the government will spend only about N200 million on Opon Imo. Governor Rauf Aregbesola made this known yesterday while distributing educational materials worth N30 million to scools at the multi-purpose hall of the Local Government Service Commission. The materials include 10,000 daily attendance registers, 11,600 school record diaries, 150,000 continuous assessment report cards for Junior Secondary Schools and 145,000 continuous assessment report cards for Senior Secondary Schools. Others are 7,000 white chalks, 70,000 cumulative record folders, 7,000 chalk board renovators and 30,000 chalk board dusters. The governor said with the downloading of 56 textbooks on 17 subjects into the Opon Imo, pupils only have to carry a digital device about, adding that this makes learning easier. Instead of being criticised for spending N200 million on Opon Imo, he said his administration should be praised for the initiative. He said about 150,000 tablets are to be distributed to pupils across the state. Aregbesola said his administration is investing huge funds in education to instil a minimum level of value in every public school pupil. He said: “Were we to buy 56 textbooks for 17 subjects offered in Senior Secondary Schools for 150,000 pupils. Over N8.4 billion would have been spent annually as against the N200 million expended on Opon Imo. “Instead of being praised for God’s endowed ingenuity and wisdom, which gave birth to the Opon Imo initiative, some people prefer to demonstrate their ignorance. They are grandstanding and claiming what they are not.” The governor described the score card of the last administration in the education sector in its 90 months in office as a far cry from his administration’s achievements in 27 months. He warned teachers against sharp practices in the distribution and utilisation of the materials and urged parents to monitor their children.

The airport is a shame When you travel, most times you have to wait for your luggage for hours In other airports I've been outside this country, by the time you've gone through border checks, your luggage will be waiting for you The conveyors don't work The staff aren't courteous and always asking for money You even have to pay to use their trolleys There are better train stations in Europe and the Americas than airports in Naija 22 Likes |
