IGBO-SON:


^^^Why am i not surprised that you support this Fulanis mans position......i didn't expect any less from you! While you're at it, you can also throw you weight behind other fallacies, lies and injustice, like: the ojoro population census that says Kano is more populated than Lagos!

Of course we won't see the likes your mate ijaw-citizen here; but let that be an Igbo man arrogantly saying such irresponsible cra.p, and the Igbo hating twerp will show up on this thread faster than Usain Bolt on steriods!

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

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

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?

Ngwakwe: Aba Zone has more Industries both multi-national and indigenous than Osun State as a whole.

Ariaria International Market, Ngwa Road Market, Central Town and Ohabiam Electronic Complexes, Cemetery Market and other large markets in Aba will even generate twice whatever Osun State desires to get.

You are the type that claim to know all with little media articles read on the internet.



Your crass jactitation doesn't erase the fact that Osun still had a higher GDP than Abia last year and has a monthly IGR of N1.6bn which is more than twice Abia's N650m monthly

Politics / Re: Fashola Kicks Against SIREN Use By Public Officers by geeez: 8:31am On Nov 15, 2013
This is leadership and not the oppressive killer convoys

BRF has never used a siren dispute being governor of the country's most prosperous and populous state

His personal convoy is never more than 6 cars long except he's going for a function with other dignitaries in tow

We should have a legislation in Lagos that prohibits the use of sirens except for emergencies such as ambulance services, firefighting trucks and police cars responding to distress calls

God bless BRF

Other SW governors should take a cue

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

Osun To Save N8.2b Annually Through Opon Imo by koruji(m): 2:49am On Mar 21
http://thenationonlineng.net/new/news/osun-to-save-n8-2b-annually-through-opon-imo/
Posted by: Adesoji Adeniyi on March 21, 2013
The Osun State Government will be saving N8.2 billion annually through the distribution of the Opon Imo (Tablet of Knowledge) to pupils.
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.

Controversy: This is the Nigerian situation for the last few decades.. Fela Kuti sang about it and sacrificed his life to expose this truth, agitate and demand for a better deal for Nigerians. Yet today some people are still deceiving themselves that there is a transformation going on, and that the country is doing fine..
1. A country that produces one of the largest amounts of raw crude-oil in the world yet is the largest importer of crude-oil derived products.

2. A country that wastes over 50% of the food it produces because of lack of stable 24hrs electricity to improve storage of such Agricultural produce.

3. A country where the ordinary citizen can be arrested without formal charges, killed extra-judicially and suffer all forms of human rights abuses.

4. A country composed of over 250 ethnic nationalities who in most cases mutually distrust and even despise themselves..

5. A country where corruption has been institutionalized to a point where corrupt public office holders can no longer be held accountable for their crimes, because “oga at the top, does not give a damn”..

6. A country that spends less than 5% of it’s budget on education and healthcare for it’s citizens..

The list is endless.. One thing is certain, this generation of Nigerians are not going to sit down and allow some 50, 60 and even 90year old youths, to continue deceiving us in the guises of religion, ethnicity or false national ideals..

Nigeria is just a geographic expression, it does not even qualify as a country, talk less of a nation..

The solution is simple, we either restructure Nigeria into a genuine federation with regional autonomy and 100% resource control, or we split it into autonomous countries based on ethnic nationalities (or a mix of ethnicities based on mutual consent) and their aboriginal lands..

Nigeria is not working, Nigeria is a failed state.. The “born to rule” and “na our time to chop”, pls stop deceiving yourselves, enough is enough..

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
