I thank God for your life Feyi Our prayers weren't for nothing RIP to the dead And for those taking a swipe at 70+ year old Obasanjo not knowing where he 40+ year old son was at the time of the crash, can you honestly say your folks know where you are right now? Except of course they still feed you, clothe you and give you money for transportation which spend on data to post crap on NL 2 Likes |

Feyi spoke when his friends, led by Jide Obanikoro, the son of a former Nigeria’s ambassador to Ghana, Musiliu Obanikoro, visited him at the Surgical Emergency ward of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja where he and other victims of the Associated Airline plane crash were rushed to on Thursday. The victim, who spoke normally, said he became unconscious after feeling the impact of the aeroplane hitting the ground but woke up later. He had a neck support and some bandages but he giggled when he saw his friends wearing worried faces. While being wheeled to the Intensive Care Unit for a body scan, the victim threw his right thumb up to his friends, saying ‘nothing do me’. A second victim, Femi Akinsanya, was seen on another bed talking with about seven of his relatives, including Hip Hop Musician, Sasha Alabi. Akinsanya, who had a neck support around his neck, described his survival as a miracle. Doctors were seen advising his pregnant wife not to move him to another hospital yet until he is stabilised. Our correspondent was however prevented from taking pictures inside the hospital. It was not all smiles at the hospital as a plump woman, said to be the wife of one of the dead victims, Chijioke Duru, was seen weeping profusely, rolling on the ground at the hospital. She wailed, “Chjioke, I am finished, who will take care of our daughter, Chinasa. Why did you leave me? I am finished.” The woman subsequently started blabbing and demanded that her husband’s corpse be handed over to her immediately. She was however taken away by another relative. Meanwhile, sources close to Gbenga Obasanjo told our correspondent that he was in the United States and denied rumours that he was on the aeroplane. The source said, “Gbenga was meant to be on that plane because he was to represent his father, Olusegun Obasanjo, at the event but stayed back in Atlanta, Georgia to attend to some things.” http://www.punchng.com/news/im-alright-agagus-son/ 1 Like |

Chima_Adeoye: Which one have you invested in yorubaland?The same exact people demolishing schools to build Tinubu mall in a rural capital? Who will buy those expensive goods in the mall? Babalawos or yoruba primary school teachers? Shoprite opened in Enugu over two years ago and still remains the only one in the SE and it's struggling to stay open Shoprite opened in Ibadan less than 6 months ago and plans to open another one before the end of this year The Osun you're comparing to Anambra makes N1.6bn in IGR while Anambra makes N450m. Only a little above a quarter of what Osun makes 10 Likes |

AWKA—GOVERNOR Peter Obi of Anambra State yesterday in Awka handed cheques totaling N1 billion to Principals of secondary schools in the state for the renovation and equipping of their laboratories and libraries. Each secondary school received N2 million which the governor said, is part of the final push to upgrade the infrastructure in all public and missionary schools in the state. Obi announced at the ceremony attended by school children and their teachers, as well as traditional rulers and leaders of thought in the state, that the 2000 teachers to be employed for the secondary schools this year would be in the core subjects of English, mathematics, sciences and Igbo, adding that the teachers would be adequately trained both locally and abroad to equip them properly to enable them impart the right knowledge to the students. Yesterday’s event came barely ten days after the governor presented cheques of N1.5 billion for the rehabilitation of primary schools returned to the Churches; N2b for rehabilitation of primary schools owned by government and N3 billion to selected missionary hospitals to upgrade their facilities to enable them secure accreditation. Obi said the funds being disbursed were part of the N40b his government would commit in the next six months into various sectors as final push towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals, MDG. According to him, the money came as a result of savings, prudent management of resources and unprecedented support the state enjoys from development partners, adding that his administration has not borrowed money to execute any project. He also said that the state government had already procured 500 buses from local manufacturers, Coscharis Group and Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company to be distributed to both public and private schools. Other things he said would be provided to secondary schools before the end of the year include, 25,000 laptops installed with full school syllables and books, generators, sick bays and internet connectivity. Obi said the decision to accommodate all schools irrespective of their owners was because they were training Anambra children. He said that he was encouraged because the massive support he gave to schools in the past had manifested in the improved academic performance of the schools in the state and reminded the people that the only way to sustain the revolution going would be for them to vote in a credible and clear-headed candidate during the governorship election. Though most of the schools received buses from the state government about four years ago, Obi said one vehicle is inadequate for moving students to functions whenever the need arose, adding that it was for that reason that all schools would be given another set of buses. Other programmes mapped out for schools by the state government include provision of internet services, easy access to sick bay for the students, upgrading of Microsoft computer services and purchase of generating sets for all schools. |

Sincere 9gerian: The Second Niger bridge has already passed the stage of contract awards. Work on the particular road mentioned on this thread may not commence even in 2 months time. There's always a lag between contract award and actual commencement of work. Story! Story!! The Lagos-Ibadan Expressway was awarded about the same time the SNB was awarded. It was cancelled and re-awarded and work has commenced because GEJ realises the economic importance of the region and the resilience of its people. He is also aware of those whose ultimatums mean nothing |

It was developed by Tayo Amusan's company and they will collect rent on it till it covers their investment before they hand it over But the mall isn't profitable and rarely visited. The Shoprite Mall there isn't making profit and I have this once again on good authority. It's bad business for Tayo. Check out my posts on Shoprite |

Depending on the city plan, it's possible to take out a school for a mall When it comes to investment in education, no other state comes close to Osun under Aregbesola Be that as it may, those from erosion ravaged regions calling Osun poor should bury their heads in shame. Osun State's IGR as it stands at N1.6bn monthly is higher than the IGR of Abia (N650m) and Anambra (N450m) put together. It will even leave some change to intimidate Ebonyi's monthly IGR Outside Lagos, Rivers and Oyo, the state had the fourth highest GDP in southern Nigeria for 2012 And you say the state is poor even when it has the lowest unemployment rate in Nigeria translating to increased purchasing power Hate with sense 3 Likes |

[b]The only people who should afraid already know themselves. The same people whose region offers no incentive that they have to go out of it to make any meaning of their lives I don't think the North has anything to be afraid of really As it stands today, a number of states in the north are more viable, with a higher IGR and GDP than a good number of states in the south There's also an abundance of mineral resources in that part of the country with a landmass that will make a good number of countries go green with envy They also have the capital and capacity to attract impressive investment Kaduna, Kano and even Katsina for instance can only be beaten by Lagos, Oyo, Ogun and perhaps Abia in southern Nigeria in terms of industries The north has an enormous potential and should there be a balkanization of this country, they won't be the poorest. All they need to do is invest in human capacity development and they can be the biggest country in Africa Only myopic and shallow minds will think oil is a valuable resource that a country can build it's future on, in this day and age[/b] 8 Likes |
