Politics / Re: VIDEO:N255m BMW Scandal,I See No Reason Stella Oduah Shudn't Go To Jail -Ubani by hercules07: 5:31pm On Oct 31, 2013 |
DerideGull: Let me tell you something about how Ubani became the chairman of that branch, he contested for that post, he won, but, some entrenched interests said they will not allow him, Ikeja branch of the NBA is perhaps the most glamorous of them all, the entrenched interests were not ready for an "Igbo" man to be the chairman of the Ikeja branch of NBA, guess those who made sure he won. Barrister Ubani is a very very straight forward individual, I do not agree with some of his views (especially with respect to Sanusi), but, you know that he is simply fighting for the common man, he is a far better Igbo than some people on this forum can ever aspire to. 1 Like |

Politics / Re: Jonathan - FG Can't Perform Magic In Crisis by hercules07: 5:18pm On Oct 31, 2013 |
Gbawe: I think you should just relax, compile a list of GEJ's failures, wait for 2019 (they are going to rig him in 2015) when an aboki becomes the President, then we will wait for people praising GEJ now to criticize the aboki, you can now let them have it with both barrels. The guys praising GEJ are either paid, ethnic bigots or have never seen anything better in their lives, someone was asking about the states, most of what will make the states productive is held by the FG, why not allow the states to generate, transmit and distribute its own power,in essence, let states regulate power within their domain with excess going to the national grid, the FG gets 56% of everything, where is the impact of that 56%? |
Politics / Re: FG To Reintroduce Toll Gates Over Bad Roads by hercules07: 9:04am On Oct 29, 2013 |
@Taharqa So we can start adding the revenue generated from the tolls to the cost of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, so please do not go around saying the road is 167B, according to your logic, it is now 167B and counting. |

taharqa: Haba, what kind of addition is that, I tell JB build me a house and collect rent for 30 year, JB builds the house and collects rent for three years, I feel I could get a better deal and ask JB how much have you spent, JB says 30M, I say okay, I will pay you 23M because you have collected rent, the cost to me is 23M and the rent collected not, 30M of JB, Rent Collected and 23M I am paying JB, hope that helps. |
Politics / Re: Lekki Toll Road Buy Back.......my Thoughts...by Senator Musiliu Obanikoro by hercules07: 7:55pm On Oct 27, 2013 |
taharqa: Your arithmetic is funny, you are adding the amount made to amount spent on the road, so you are telling me that when the FG spends 167B on Lagos-Ibadan expressway, you are going to add that to whatever revenue they make to be the final cost?, abeg stop that nonsense. Let me break it down for you, we are looking at how much LASG is going to spend on the road, 87.5Bn loan plus existing money spent, existing money spent is 29.5BN, add that together and LASG will be spending 117BN. Your fraudulent maths is adding 35Bn spent by LCC to LASG cost when the bulk of LASG cost is to pay back the concessionaire, is the concessionaire going to spend the money being paid by the LASG on the road? You are also adding the tolls which is revenue to cost, so when you are drawing up your profit and loss sheet, you are going add revenue and cost on the same side of the sheet? |
Politics / Re: Lekki Toll Road Buy Back.......my Thoughts...by Senator Musiliu Obanikoro by hercules07: 6:05pm On Oct 27, 2013 |
taharqa: You keep repeating this thing, the total cost is #116B for 70Km, it is marginally better than what the FG is spending on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. |

Politics / Re: Okonjo Iweala, Alison-madueke And Stella Oduah! A Tale Of Three Ministries: by hercules07: 11:28pm On Oct 25, 2013 |
gbanikiti: Even though Dora Akunyili is not an appointee in this present government, no female minister irrespective of their ethnic background have beaten the record of Dora. She still remains the best female minister nigeria has ever produced. This is a lie, she was woeful as a minister, as the NAFDAC boss she tried, she really tried, Ezekwesili was the best female minister. |
Politics / Re: Okonjo Iweala, Alison-madueke And Stella Oduah! A Tale Of Three Ministries: by hercules07: 11:02pm On Oct 25, 2013 |
The only Igbo minister that deserves respect and commendation is Ezekwesili, Dora as a minister was a disaster, as NAFDAC boss, she was fantastic. Okonjo Iweala as a minister is also a disaster, we actually paid back all of our debt when we had no infrastructure, unbelievable, Oduah is just a thief while Dizeani though Ijaw is a bigger thief. |
Politics / Re: Oduahgate: Presidency Moves To Probe N7.5 Billion Airports Remodel Projects by hercules07: 5:50pm On Oct 25, 2013 |
Tolexander: what evidence have you to ascertain this news as a propaganda?I have done simple arithmetic for him on the Lekki-Epe Road, the proposed cost is cheaper than what the FG is spending on the Lagos Ibadan Expressway, the buyback is the best thing for LASG because the revenue of #4B per annum means the state will recoup the money spent in less than 30 years. I personally believe that the Lekki Epe expressway could have been done cheaper and there is a need to always scrutinize whatever our leaders do, but, the angle he is trying to push is that FG projects are cheaper, haba. |

taharqa: Am still expecting a response from @hercules on this comment that was a direct response to his... How many threads will one have to answer now, choose one thread and let us concentrate there, by the way, I am on a different time zone from you and I do not sit on Nairaland so my responses will be coming late. The FG is spending #1.67B (100Km Road) on the Lagos Ibadan Expressway, Fashola is spending #1.62B on the Lekki-Epe Expressway. |

taharqa: @take dat, I still hv not seen a single comment from you on the LekkiEpe GRAND FRAUD. I wönda why??..... You know that it is not every anti-Fashola/Tinubu corruptn thread that I comment on; in fact, I hardly comment on most and hv even dismissed a few. BUT that Lekki-Epe Scheme is a FRAUD of d 1st rate, regardless of whateva directn one wants to look at it. Plus, I am Appaled by d 'Conspiracy of Silence' and outright HYPOCRISY in the rxtn to it. You are not yrself in d clear in this respect......@topic, this new allegation about d Presidency's alleged probe of d Remodelled Airports is nothing but a streak of PROPAGANDA. Full Stop!!

Politics / Re: NCAA Actually Spent N1bn Of Taxpayers Money On Cars, including N255m for 2! by hercules07: 12:38pm On Oct 25, 2013 |
taharqa: Actuali, it is as follows: #15bn to 'buy back' a FAILED concession when d Concessionaire shld be d ones paying LASG; #6.8bn and #3.5bn to pay back d debts incurred by d FAILED Concessionaire (d very 1st time I hv ever heard a party paying d debts of another party that Failed to keep to d terms of an agreement); #5bn that d LASG initiali paid to d Concessionaires at d start of d Scam; #87.7bn that d LASG intends to borrow tru placing a Bond in order to 'complete' the FAILED road project; #35bn which d Concessionaires said they already spent on d road (ok, #30bn ie minus d #5bn which d LASG initiali gave them and which I hv already counted); and, then a still undisclosed amount of money running in the billions which d Concessionaires already got from Toll fees in almost 3 yrs of collecting Tolls from a Project they were not supposed to collect a kobo until d entire Road project is done (according to a Survey conducted by this same Concessionaires suggested a Toll revenue of an Average of #4.2bn Annually from ONLY ONE Toll plaza). You may now ADD up, and see if you wud not have within d neighbourhood of #170- #180bn that wud hv bn spent by both d LASG and d Concessionaire in order to build a 49km Road!!!.... By d way, EVERY FIGURE listed above came directly from d mouth of d Commissioners of Finance, Economy and Works of d LASG... I expect yr Response, unlike what you did in that other thread by running away after having yr questn answered. You may THANK me later... Let us break it down, the total project is 70Km and not the 49Km you posited above, the total project includes the Lekki coastal road as well, now, so far the LASG has spent #28B on approximately 20Km of road (begining of Ozumba Mbadiwe to the present point that LCC is now), out of the #28B, LASG has given LCC #20B (#15B buyback and initial #5B), so there is no need to add the #30B of LCC to the #28B of LASG, the balance of #10B and profit for the LCC is the Toll they have collected in the last 3 years on that road. So, LCC spent #30B, lagos reimbursed #20B plus the profit from tolls. Now, Lagos is going to borrow #88B, if we add that to #28B, the total cost to Lagos of a 70km road is #116B, divide #116B by 70 and you get #1.62B per Km, now your GEJ is gonna spend #1.67B per Km on the Lagos Ibadan expressway (167B/100km). 3 Likes |

taharqa: By d way @OP and 'Corruption Crusader', d LASG wud spend bw #170-#180bn to construct d 49km Lekki-Epe Rd, instead of about #30-#40bn. This is FACT; and there are at least 3 threads on d Politics section on this FRAUD and WASTE... Wonda why a Voltron like yrself hv not seen nor commented on it.. Actually the total expenditure from the LASG on lekki is #28 billion Naira, broken as follows, #5B loan, #15B buyback, #8B for loan servicing and third party issues, I do not know where you got #170Billion Naira. http://www.tellng.com/business/question-over-lekki-concession-buy-back 4 Likes |
