Las Vegas economy is bigger than most cities in the world

Them hold you from building the factory?
Them hold your hands from building the schools?

If you think clubs are for bad people then you are poor

Even in economics they have striper index used for trading

1nigeriamyfoot:
These guys are not clean including obi cubana

These guys are big time fraudster

Yes, clubs and lounges pays but they only use it as a cover up

KingKO22:
IPOBidients have been reduced to wailing wailers


Being a loser is a terrible thing

seunmsg:
Ajaero and his bunch of NLC jokers have finally decided to stop clowning and call off the failed protest. Mtcheeeeew.

Okoroawusa:
Obidients how far the protest? They will soon gather under my post to wail

LegendHero:
Lol, all those who are in the business of sponsoring protests have seen that it is not business as usual during the period of Tinubu.

Tinubu strategically handled all items.

—SE: Normally, Peter Obi/PDP and his gangs of Obedient should have been at the forefront of the protest as opposition. But Tinubu played on their psyche. Prop some people up, then they believe joining protest mean they will be part of people complaining about hunger. So strategically, they are working for Tinubu without knowing. Just feed his ego, and an average Obidient lose his sense of reasoning. Even when parents are now killing kids because of extreme hunger in the SE, Obedients online still believe they are not hungry. What an irony.

—Northerners: In their usual game, they don’t have the moral authority to lead a protest because they know Buhari landed us in this mess and during that period, they failed to protest. So how do you sponsor violent protest when you don’t have the moral support?

—SW: Normally, SW don’t usually speak with one voice coz of 60/40 opposition divide and even if genuine people are protesting, Jagaban people also blended with the crowd and declared hunger and hardship induced by the polices of Tinubu. So when Yorubas themselves are speaking up against Tinubu and complaining of hunger, where is the moral support for opposition to lead a protest? How do you lead protest when the actual people you’re trying to fight against are leading it? So there is controlled protest strategically by same SW politicians to water down effect of any other protest in other part of the country.

—TUC and NLC: Jagaban just try to make sure no amount of protest embarked upon by these guys will carry weight. TUC president saw this and baba backed out of the protest and NLC Ajaero who is another Tinubu tool saw his protest failing on the very first day. An almighty NLC couldn’t even win the confidence of the workers anymore. Ajaero is toothless.

—Police: Usually police are always antagonist of protesters. But the rule play is different now. Police are actually the one cheering with the protesters and even going as far as joining them and providing snacks. So psychologically, the protesters see that the government is part of them. Even if they want to be furious, they will use this to give benefit of the doubt.

Now all this point to one thing. Nigerians believe in Tinubu and they have tried in giving him benefit of the doubt. It’s not like the man jazzed everybody, coz with the hard reforms he embarked on and the hardship that follows it at first, NO PRESIDENT can do this without NLC and opposition shutting the country down. ONLY Jagaban can do that and people will still be patient with him.

Lastly, Jagaban should ensure the promised minimum wage and other intervention come fast. This magic might not last long if people don’t see the promise fulfilled. He is so lucky to have even lasted this long with little nation rocking protest.

My joy is that this project has given knowledge to many lacking the sense that infrastructural projects cost much money and takes much time.

At least, no one can accuse a private company of embezzling from the $800m it required to provide power for just 9 LGAs out of 774 LGAs in the country.

Nor can you criticise why the project that was projected to cost $250m eventually cost $800m.

Abi dollar dey depreciate like Naira when the project was never costed in Naira?

The solution is simple.. prioritize security biko, let farmers be able to farm in peace and harvest their crops.
All those bandits and whatnot have to go.. the time to finish them off is now.

The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria accepted today the resignation of Barth Nnaji, the hitherto Minister of Power.

The resignation is reportedly connected to the revelations first premiered by Business Day which linked the former cabinet member to an underground bid for Afam Power Station.

Nnaji revealed to the National Council on Privatiation last Friday that his company, Geometrics, was a shareholder in a company that bid for the Afam Power Station.

Afam Power Station has an installed capacity of 775 Megawatts which is 18% of the country’s current total power generation.

The revelation came as a surprise, although many Nigerians were already aware that the privatiation of PHCN was simply an unbundling of the country’s power assets to the cabal.

However the undoing of Mr. Nnaji may have come about as a result of the dispute between himself as minister and PHCN employees.

The PHCN employees were embittered by Nnaji’s refusal to pay them adequate terminal benefits running into hundreds of billions of Naira. The conflict-of-interest being he would not want an asset he was planning to acquire to be hugely indebted to the soon-to-be disengaged PHCN staff.

StOla:
No pain here.

Just setting the stage to confront those who have always been irrational to think infrastructures are built with Chicken change.

StOla:
No need to dey shalaye.

At least you have proven you have the capacity to be rational.

So don't expect miracles from the government in months when you can tolerate a 17year project to provide power to only 9 local governments at the cost of $800m.

Easybet1:
Something you should have bring to Lagos and make cool money, you went to set it up in a village with little companies and poorest people that can't afford to pay the electricity bill.

Haaland21:
I hope by this project, the children of hate would relocate to the yeast..

Noisemakers celebrating a privately owned company gotten with a loan facility of 800 million dollars.

If you think, Nnaji would do father christmas with the electricity, you need to have your head check.....


By the way, lagos state has its own IPP.

StOla:
This project took almost 2 decades to complete just 181MW of electric power.

The Nigerian standard of efficiency and urgency is quite embarrassing.

Now those celebrating this will expect other state and federal governments to give them similar project in 1yr.

A private firm spent $800m for almost 2 decades to provide 181MW power to only 9 out of 17 LGAs in Abia state.

Again, those rejoicing will expect FG to spend only $100m to provide thousands of MW electricity within 1year.

Are we not an absurd bunch?

adamusuleiman2:
Kudos to everyone involved plus the past PDP governors and the APC government. I remember Ikpeazu in sky blue shirt below traveling to South Africa for this project and Osibanjo helping them remove bottle necks in Nigeria along the way.

..So sad....Sad that the pain is still fresh in the heart of the victims

lexy2014:
wow...is that the picture of your head and the reason why you are unable to answer these questions?

1. pls what is the meaning of reform?

2. what exactly is being reformed?

3. is it because of subsidy that rice was being sold for 6k?

4. was it only because of subsidy that Nigeria was borrowing?

5. when subsidy on diesel and kerosene was removed, did it stop borrowing?

6. since Tinubu removed subsidy on fuel, did it stop him from borrowing?

7. how is fuel subsidy the only issue that Nigeria was facing?

8. since it has been removed, has that solved all Nigeria's problems?

9. how are they working to cushion the effect of fuel subsidy?
