Mark my words. TSTV will dissapoint you big time. Its only the likes of Sky Digital or Virgin media that can come and challenge DSTV.

DStv has sole dominance in Africa when it comes to cable TV. And they also have the capability to introduce the broadband section of their business.

Every DSTV dish can supply internet access to every homes via inbuilt WiFi in the decoder. Guess, DSTV is just waiting to completely mop up the market before introducing the broadband section or when strong competitors come.

What happens to the likes of HiTV, DaarSat etc. What is deceiving most of these Cable company is our huge population. But as we have often seen most of them don't prepare well before coming and they were soon shocked with the reality on ground.

I'm not warning everybody, but only the few that will listen...Do not buy TSTV...You will end up regretting. Mark my word!

MONITZ:
Probably they were operating somewhere before their decision to come to Nigeria if not they might be doomed already before starting because DSTV will sure find a way around destabilizing them ,MTN and NITEL come to mind .South African companies in Nigeria re crooks nd sure know how to play their cards as regards our corrupt legislators ,there was even a time MTN was accused of bribing our federal legislators with abt 25k worth of recharge cards every month ....

“We also talked about the issue of appointments from the South East, especially with respect to the National Security Council. The President also told us that governors of the South East have also engaged him in the same problems we engaged him in.
We are reassured with the response we got from the President and we look forward to further interaction with him in this manner.”

The bolded is why they came; and the President's response show that he has faith in the governors rather than the Igbo group in National Assembly. These are the people harming Igbo identity and respect. Let us look at that Chairman of the South East caucus in the National Assembly, Enyinnaya Abaribe - He signed bail for Nnamdi Kanu. He moved motion to make Saraki Acting President when Mr. Buhari was on medical vacation. Deputy Senate Preside Ekweremadu - He led other Igbo Senators to pay 'solidarity' visit to Kanu after his release.

The roads Ekweremadu did not remember for years, Now he knows they have a bad road. Baba go kuku tell you him don hear, oya come dey go

Sagay212:
They really need that rehabilitation. Abeg ensure you give them plenty of food and let them do medical check up. That food especially is very important because you need to see the way some of them ate the food the NA gave them at the barracks. They finished a big plate of fried rice in less than 40 seconds and didn't even drink water and wanted more...the rehabilitation they need is food and mental check up.

PointB:
Quit being clever by half.

In which part of the world do you see corrupt politicians agitating? Agitate for what if not for continuation of the status quo. Did you see Shonekan agitate when he was named Interim President.

PointB:
Clown.

I bet you don't even know the definition of success. I won't be surprised if you equate it to bank account balance. Typical Nigger-area mentality. Keep forming successful on Nairaland!

PointB:
Because Nigeria is a joke; a lawless fiefdom! And that is exactly why nothing will happen to Abaribe. Now, you can take that to the bank!

PointB:
Nigeria is and remains a joke, and that's how the world sees it. A joke of a president; a joke of an army (more like police), and complete mess of a country - a jungle. A country as you say, where politicians smile to the bank, while citizens swim in squalor is what kind of country exactly? Again a joke; a laughing stock in comity of nations.

But then I can understand the 'monkey no fine, him mama like am' posturing of yours. Keep deceiving yourself.

PointB:
Abaribe has nothing to worry about.

Those who kidnapped or killed Nnamdi will have to answer first before Abaribe.

PointB:
You overestimate Nigeria; a gloried joke in the comity of nation.

As per the so-called billions the international community are making, why do you think they wont make same or more in a divided and more prosperous countries that will emerge from the ruin of Nigeria? Yoruba and Hausa may be stuck with Nigeria, some of us are not; and are not afraid of having our own country. So speak for yourself.

Gotze1:
Asari that took money to other country to build university reject bribe hehehehehe.

Kazim88:
Niger Delta are hungry people.... Give them small bribe from their own money they would fight their parents.

From ijaw, Urhobo to Itsekiri, plus ogoni... they would still end up fighting themselves... with all the wealth in their land They are completely marginalized.

Igbos are marginalized But Their entrepreneurship spirit and business-unity is making them beat the odds.

The truth is that Nigerian is big slave camp of the British.... They own everything.. They discovered the oil... invested in the drilling..

They know we are too weak to fight... and those that can are too foolish and corrupt to challenge them.

US fought a bloody war against the Britain for their independence... While Nigeria we were decieved to believe we are independent yet we are all British slaves. North, South, West, East.

PointB:
Make no mistake, you can't kill them all. One is bound to succeed sooner or later, and some of these soldiers will have to answer to international community. Politics and interest change very quickly especially in this part of the world. Don't get caught in international crime like genocide and crime against humanity.

Government cannot shield your forever. Ask Charles Taylor, Laurent Gbagbo etc.

PointB:
A strong case by who? It appears your train on thought is faster than your fingers. It does happen.


In anycase, PMB was elected despite his perjury! That we can very much agree on.

kitaatita:
The Kanu boy over-rated his support base. He obviously thought that he had more support than those that paraded the streets for him.

If he was a good listener, he would have taken to the counsel of Igbo who admonished him when he went to Atlanta to solicit for weapons. He should have known that Ekweremadu and Abaribe were playing politics. He should have known that FFK and Fayose were only using him to fight their own cause. He should have known that wars are not fought on Nairaland. He should have known that other Igbo who were not in support of his utopian Biafra are not his enemies and never hated him.

PointB:
They are not different from the illiterate president whose forged certificate tried to put a wool over our eyes by claiming he failed wood and maths.
Looks like they are birds of a feather - the Senators and the President, all exalted semi-literates.

AlanSugar:
The senators are expected to be learned in the first place. A senator should know better than to mess with treasonable issues which is against the sovereignty he swore to protect. Do you see how it works? It was a trap, and abaribe fell into it blindly. It goes to prove non of these idiot senators know why they are there. Look at the case of Saraki making public pronouncements, describing the federal government's proscription of Ipob as illegal just because he wanted to grow and strengthen his support base of the south east senators! Does that show they have the interest of masses/government at heart! It's all about their pockets plus they can't identify their left from their right.

kitaatita:
IPOB Senators have succeeded in making Igbo people look stupid and Hausa appear intelligent.

aycorporat:
Alright, let me go with you on that. However, he should avoid costly mistakes like the Cameroon saga leading to a penalty and also stop holding on to the ball as if playing with primary school children. Remember if this guys should win (Zambia), they are well ahead of us in goals if I'm right.

iyke2ken:
leave that bitch called Charity....foreign based nigerian goal keepers have undergone better ball education and tactical training

1shortblackboy:
u dey watch football at all? yes we all want Nigeria to win but its not going to be that easy

1shortblackboy:
the chipolopolo of zambia are no push overs o

mrlaw93:
All of our goal keepers are Africa based.. Am concerned

InvertedHammer:
LOL.

If foreign embassies fail to listen to FGN, what will Nigeria do? Nigeria has no clout. Can Nigeria sanction UK or US? Yeah. All they have to do is put a travel restriction on Buhari and he will be at the mercy of Indian doctors. Nigeria is trying to assert the power they can never get in a thousand years.

What a comic relief!

1. Concession all commercially viable federal roads to private companies for rehabilitation and construction of new ones.

2. Let them roads be maintained and funded by toll fees.

3. Make provision for private citizens to be able to buy 'limited shares' in these companies.

4. Let ministry of works perform only oversight duties on these roads to make sure they are always in top shape.

5. Let the ministry concentrate funds on improving our state and local roads:
A. $20b is too little to fund adequate Infrastructure for 200 million people when a country like Qatar with 2.5 m population runs a $55b budget, or South Africa 55m population with $90b budget.

B. The local and state governments fly below the radar 'chopping' monies meant for these projects.

C. We spend more time on these inner roads damaging our cars and wasting time.

D. Them federal highways deathtraps can now become highways with lower avoidable incidents -- of course you get what you pay for.

Personally, I won't want to pay for a Range Rover only to be given a Toyota Yaris.

signz:
I don't know why simple things like this are soooo difficult for our politicians. For God's sake under this same Fashola, a private company built a world class road and put toll gates on it to recoup their funds. Why is it so difficult to do same at Federal level.
