[quote author=Osiris.211]The best post so far. But the downside of using nuclear bomb or a "dirty bomb" at this moment is that, it will trigger nuclear arm race cos every country will want to have one.[/quote]of course, i never meant them taking a nuclear strike right awat from on-set. i mean dt if Isreal goes into war with Iran and gets overwhelmed, she would resort to dt option. Afterall, it's same thing US did against Japan to bring d war to end, and they almost ordered one during d Cuban Crisis.

[quote author=Malcolm-X]In a nutshell - the prize in an Israel vs. Iran war; for Israel is the destruction of Iran's nuclear reactors, and regime change. However, that requires an invasion, which makes it totally IMPOSSIBLE. On the other hand, Iran's prize is the reduction of Israel's military capabilities, heavy losses, and the reduction in Israel's encroachments across the region - something the Iranians can achieve with ease, without invading Israel.

If you break-it-down further, you would see that there's no way Israel can win against the Iranians.[/quote]my friend, there's d biggest factor dt u havn't mentioned - dats dt Israel stock nuclear bombs.

when u r a nuclear nation, u can raise ur voice against any non-nuclear nation irrespective of their perceived military might and d nation will respond cautiously. that's d bargaining chip Israel has here. do u think if Israel begins to feel overwhelmed it will not take a nuclear strike against Iran? of course, dats where it would lead to, whatever happens after dt will be from outside Iran wc in itself will drag in other allies to take side. both sides will know d consequence of an all-out nuclear war and avoid it, so d point will be to end d war. at end of d day, Iran has been destroyed wt a nuclear strike while UN resolutions will b passed to slap Israel. so tell me who has lost more....my man, no b by initial gra-gra and media prapaganda wey dem dey do o! even Saddam do pass dat one sef b4 1st Gulf War, after him don use d same Iran mop gutter finish.

Bottom line, war no b play-station o!

the responses above shows dt Aluu is just a random location and Boko hara + almanjiri killings r just opportunistic events, most Nigerians r capable of ds vices.

@ Area Boy, thanks for a sane response.

@ Okija Juju, u too, thanks for preaching some sanity

my brother,

from ur explanation, d man was caught red handed committing d crime. also, u said u r ur community spokes-man, which makes u a community leader too. if u want evil to multiply in ur community, then go and bail him. but if u want order and peace, allow him to face d consequence of his actions. where were hid wives when he went about stealing? can his wifes deny that they dont know about his ways? let me tell u, if u catch Boko Haram leader today, some people will still come forward to beg u to help them cover the matter. if u do what they r asking for, remember that someone else too will have the same issue in d future, maybe a kidnapper, r.a.pist, murderer, or armed robber, then d family too will remind u of how u helped this thief u want to help today, so u must not b partial abot helping them too. i hope u will like it when u find urself in such situation....

if u fetch a fire-wood with ants from the bush, be ready to receive lizards as guest. a word is enough for d wise. udo diri ghi.

"[size=38pt]few casualty[/size]" ?

what d hell does ds mean? ...r we still humans?

donpata: u GO school at all? Honourary and PHD na d same thing? Why you dey show your ignorance 4 public nah... Heard sm1 say dem go collect GEJ phd.
A little education - PhD = Academic (Dat is, person wey chop book tire); (Dr) note the bracket - Ceremonial (Dat is person wey theif pass)

Guy, cool ya temper. both of dem b PhD, d only difference is dt one is Honoris Causa and i no knw d Latinized oyibo wey dem dey use dress d second one wey b academic.

ds is unfair to Adams. he has really done well wt d roads in Benin. d portion in d pix is Uselu-Ugbowo-Lagos rd wc is a FG road. as we speak, its under re-construction by RCC. if u take a closer look at d pix, u will see dt d reinforced concrete median is a fresh casting, they r less dn a month old and work is actively on-going. but dt doesnt mean dt benin is Paris, but anyone who knws d level of decay in Benin before Adam's era will agree dt he has changed Benin much.

@ Cleverly,

can u pls take a break wt d pix so dt we can have a smooth discussion thread to take care of dis vermin called ndu chuks and make a statement to his ilks dt d nation many good men and women r trying to salvage and leave for our children is not for tribal oligarchs and savages like theirs. ds rat has been made out so he has to b dealt wt appropriately.

@ndu chuks

its very stupeed of u to think u can hoodwink me wt first, ur earlier attempt to feign "what-have-i-done?" and now ur weak attempt to blame it on PDP when ur antecedents are well known on ds forum to be an Arewa crusader. honestly, there is absolutely nothn wrong in being dt both morally and any other way, but it is highly idiotic and irresponsible to make such statement u made against such known leanings of urs vis-a-vis well known political doctrines of ur band. d one who is prejudiced, dullard, syuupid (silly), illiterate (whatever dt means to u), and without understanding here is YOU, ndu chuks! u wr caught red handed and resorted to playn fooolish and childish gymnastics tryn to blame it on PDP, i'm sure dt next excuse is GEJ, ba? u think ur gra-gra + name calln will help u twist out of this? u r sounding more ridiculous, honestly

^

oga sir, pls leave d facade, ur bold-face gra-gra is useless here. wht is demanded of u is simple and humble maturity to show remorse for dt costly "slip" u made in ur post. pls dont claim it as a joke, otherwise dt wld make u look worse dn it already is. but since u want me to spell it to u even at face of obvious as i made it in my earlier post, i shall do dt just to make u see dt my reason is objective and nothn more sir.

ok, here we go; whats ur meaning of "...once our people take control of power in Nigeria..."?

[quote author=ndu_chucks]Insha Allah, once [size=34pt]our[/size] people take control of power in Nigeria, [size=34pt]we[/size] will forcibly retake Bakassi. The resulting war with Cameroon may be what Nigerians needs to become nationalists and patriots.

Moda F the foreign bodies who ruled against Nigeria and may OBJ and his cohorts pay dearly for giving these people away.[/quote]What nonsense r ds? ds sort of stupeed mindset led ds nation down ds dark alley of pandemonium n u r still nursing it in Q3 2012? shame on u man, dts grossly foolish of u sir and ur post shows high sense of irresponsibility. u r an anti-thesis to every good man and woman working painfully and yet, tirelessly towards building a our society of better and free future. ur reasoning as displayed here sits in same type wt Boko Haram. May ur wishes fail by d powers of The Most High. may ideeots wt ur kind of thinking fail by any means to reach positions of influence in any corner of ds nation. and above all, may the best man/woman for d job rule ds land irrespective of tribe, tongue, language, religion and creed.

@Tpia,

u mean u could fall for dt pseudo-science? wqhen u barricade a river flow wt a dam, isnt there supposed to be a build up of vast reservoir behind it? so do call d "forced" width of d reservoir d true width of d river originally? haba, madam!

wait o! no b Omolayo hostel dey for background for d pinshur of dos "chicken kidnappers"? chai...i remember my days for UNAD o! una get liver go destroy skul property ke? I trust D.K, una go hear whiiin.

I'm so pissed.

To know that it's my alma mater that's being dragged in d gutter here is painful. The terrible incident and reaction by d students r just so wrong. Now, the carnival of grammatical blunders dt d students r displayn here is not comforting either. Finally, one of d reports claimed dt our hallowed ground-my dear faculty of engineering has been breached; how dare d mob bring riot into dt enclave of "dons"? somethn is terribly wrong...

sheyguy: @Onlythruth, i still strongly feel u should be able to go against majority opinion harmed with good and convincing reasons, i will give 1 example, now this isn't to derail the thread.
The lagos state govt is currently embarking on a project to construct multiple lanes of roads along Badagry- Seme expressway and the position of majority of Lagosian is that they are in support of it, but i tell you that i don't support that particular project because:
1). It will multiply(by a factor of 4 or 5) the Traffic flowing into mile 2 and festac area(the Lagos end of the road) simulteneously and thus cause more hardship to the people supporting it in the first place.
2). It will be a elegant but wasteful endevour to go ahead and construct multiple lanes in a situation where the single lane it currently has can handle all of its traffic when in good condition. In fact imagine the effort and resource going into a one additional lane spanning over 50 km (100km in total) going into other Lagos roads in far worse condition.
3) why construct such road on debt that spans into the future when Fashola won't always be in power or always be in powerful position to maintain his current ideologies.
Or will ACN and Fashola rule Lagos forever?

faulty points....

1. better dn hav d present "narrrow" access, and it will pave way for development of Agbara and other communities alond d road + those other end of Ogun state. dts whats called DEVELOPMENT

2. d "single lanes" (not single lanes though) cant handle d volume of traffic already. + remember it also includes a new rail line

3. no govt has available money to carry out large infrastructural projects in modern times, it's all on some sort of debt or other. so nothn wrong in dt at all.


#modified. tnx sheyguy

if GEJ can appeal ds verdict, I will giv him a whole year of benefit of doubt on competency.

una still dey on top ds matter?

IT WON'T FLY...Q.E.D[/size]

an elephant will fly b4 ds plan does. and if u think otherwise, then u knw nxt to nothing abt nigeria

^^^

where did u crawl out from? onye nzuzu

foolish excuse. because others politicised his death so u too politicised it by staying away in opposition....imagine how silly dt sounds. isnt matter of life and death (normally) above politics?

very very faulty analysis. u surely have heard abt NPV before, but u definitely dont know how it's used to work out inflation and bank inteest rates, otherwise u wldnt conclude how u did. abt d foreign investors, i still dont get d logic u tried to present.

this is saddening.

thats average of $3.2m/annum/head. isnt that case of clear fraud? not even MIT, d most prestigeous engineering school, is that costly. abi na NASA wan train dem?

again, whats d point in dt profligracy? theres a state owned university there begging for funding. funding her engineering school with d $80m yearly x 4 years will make it compete with best institutions in BRICS nation.

i feel sad when i see deliberate acts of sabotage and misapplication of executive privileges like ds.

tomorrow somebody will come here and blame FG for futre problems of ds clear case of maladministration.

that Saleh Momale is sick in d head or just fooolish. he concocted up lies and misapplied facts. so who is responsible for the Fulanis low literacy? and Isnt Usman Nafada, d immediate past deputy speaker of NA, a Fulani from Nafada LGA of Gombe State? ...so y d lie dt their kins have never come near elective positions? what abt Gen. M'hd Buhari....isnt he of Fulani stock? Yar' adua?...is he now a Yoruba or Igbo? what abt so much money dt has gone down drain under MAMSER, SAP, and many other special programmes targeted at educating d nomadic Fulani?

I dont stand for subjugation of any tribe, but i believe that demands should be reasonable and sustainable.

d guy should tell his people to wake up to reality of d modern society and adjust, not d society adjusting for them.

good one. i must tell u dt d biggest problem i had was material selection. d adequate materials are either not available or very costly to get and fabricate. unfortunately, dats d very very important as wight will dtermine inertia, hence cutt-in speed, availability and general performance.

foolishness reigns supreme on Nairaland.

Only a person with reading and comprehension deficiency will accuse Buhari of bigotry from d report. It's a figure of speech and nothing more.

If he'd put "bible" in place of "quoran", would we be havn ds topic? ur answer to ds shows dt most "wailing victims" on ds thread are no less bigots themselves.

keep fighting for religion and keep demonizing "innocent" people, I hope d Lord God himself will applaud and pat u on d back for dt at due time.

bittyend: I'm not really conversant with Nigerian engineers/scientists in Nigeria, but I know loads in diaspora - who would willingly take up the task to go back to Nigeria, if the environment is conducive. Nigeria is trying to get into the big league, with the BRICS countries - and we've to go nuclear, if we want to achieve that. Our population is too huge for other forms of power generation. And one thing all the BRICS countries have in common is also nuclear power generation - we can't compete with the 'big boys' without it.

As for the environmental consequences, that was why I suggested that the nuclear power plants should be built on the wasteland, somewhere in the North. Climate shouldn't be a problem, if Libya did it in the past - and Algeria is also contemplating building a couple from 2020.



Smh.. Ask about me, I'm not just in the mood tonight - and I definitely don't want to turn this thread upside down.

I go hard in the paint, and assaulting people verbally is the easiest thing for me.

bros abeg drop d argument, u dont know d things u r talking about. using Google doesnt make u an expert. pls just let ds matter rest...take on some different topics and debate, biko...

leyom234: When Niger Dams Authority with other power generating companies where merged in late 70s and renamed NEPA, it was constitutionally stated that the new organisation would only manage existing infrastructure. This is to tell you that NEPA/PHCN does not have the constitutional responsility of building power stations but to run the existing ones. The youngest operating power station is the one at Egbin and its of the highest capacity of 1280 megawatts but it will interest Nigerians that it was built and commisioned by OBJ in 1979.

Last year when IBB clocked 70, do Nigerians remember that himself and OBJ were involved in a media outrage where one of the responses that OBJ gave IBB was that IBB was in power for 8 years yet didnt bother to build any power stations? Is that not enough for Nigerians to understand that it is the responsibility of the government to initiate power projects? OH unna think say na PHCN staff go award those NIPP projects to those Indian companies?

Yes, some power projects were commisioned last year while some will soon be commisioned but it will also interest Nigerians to learn that it was OBJ's initiated projects during the 8 years he completed in 2007. When these projects are complete, nepa/phcn staff are then brought into it to run.

30 years ago, capacity was 4000 and now its still the same while population has grown drastically. SA has a population of 50 million, they generate 50,000 megawatts while we can only generate 4000 with population of around 180 million people. By the way, has government ever blamed phcn for not generating enough ? Most recently when the Minister felt power generation improved, wasnt he try to acribe praises to himself? This should tell Nigerians that it is the responsibility of the government to build power generating stations while nepa/phcn staff are only saddled with the resoponsibilityof running them when made available by their employer.

Come to think of it, on August 27, BusinessDay reported that the minister was blasted by the vice president on his selfish approach to the privatisation thing while Thisday reported the same issue today on their front page but the likes of punch, guidian, vanguard etc would not talk about it.The minister was using them as tools of propaganda to instigate Nigerians against phcn workers so they cant afford to betray their friendship towards the sacked minister. I dey go bed joorrrr.

Bros, 3 heavy GBOSA for u sir!

may ur days be long!

thanks for saying dos facts again agaist rubbish beign spewn around by 40 laptops gang.

only dt i'm a bit angry wt u for coming out late when u left only few of us to fight of those 40 foxes from pit of hell sir. but anyway, thanks for d facts.

If this number of people viewing this thread takes to the street to request for explanation into why Nnaji resigned, i believe Jonathan he realize he cant keep taking Nigerians for granted with his selfishness, deceit and endless corruprion.[/quote]of course he's my kinsman and very senior professional colleague. but d allegation against him sounds very strong and unethical which one expects person of his caliber to understand before entangling himself in such issues, so i won't side with him. but let's wait and hear d factual details before passing judgement. this is very unfortunate. he has put in a lot of work both as adviser and minister of power.

i guess Prof Bolaji Aluko, current VC Federal University, Bayelsa, may be d next candidate. just my guess...

[quote author=femary___]So it takes a decade right?[/quote]sometimes yes, sometimes no. all depends on complexity. if u knw d complexity and sheer size of NIPP relative to what we do normally, u wld understand dt its a highly "complex" and "big" one.

one sure thing is dt we have so much power in d pool presently because more NIPP projects are coming onstream. u know what dat means?...OBJ initiated projects (and not GEJ) are coming to maturity! so GEJ boot lickers shouldnt come here and start claiming it as a plus for their boss. it was on ground and at advanced stage before their oga came to power, it fact financing for most of them are at above median tresh hold.

so GEJ appologists should tell me ONE power project he initiated. hope none of the will come and waive privatization of PHCN at my face because i will slap d falla back wt privatization act of PHCN in 1995; i'm sure GEJ was d president then too, abi?

omo iya mi, u need to understand how d local psychology here is wired. d moment dt happens, every musician, movies, pictures and slangs will b abt it. when u want to dash someone money, dey jokingly ask if its d new bills. somebody will spray it at d party, another will carry it in his wallet incareless manner for all to glimpse. ds chain of unconnected social acts just keep going "innocently" until all attention of d society is on d higher denomination. when u later bring ur N1000 to giv as gift or whatever, d people percieve it as N100 0r even N10. u dont know, but d reciever now knows that there is higher "thing" dn what u "pauper" offered. later it grows to "big men" carrying only higher denominations in their wallet and not dirty lower ones. u dont want to b caught in d joke, u live up to it,....so also d market women, taxi drivers and other parts of d society. next day, u go to d barbar shop and he tells u dt his charges has increased, and u shouy WHY, he says market women and transporters r charging higher so it affects him too. two weeks later, NLC calls for national strike over minimum wage increament by 500%. u jubilate because it will benefit u. after d show down, govt agrees to 250% increment and everybody jubilates. following week, govt slams higher VAT and other charges and also withdraws "subsidies". mind u, ur new minimum wage is yet to b paid. dt morning, ur N1000 can barely pay for okada to work...

now u see how things run here?

He said, but for corruption, the National Integrated Power Project initiated by the Olusegun Obasanjo administration would have provided at least an additional 5000MW of power.

this part is what i hv always pointed out to people, against d brazen lies being peddled about by d fooolish 40 laptop group dt GEJ magically pulled off electric power increase within 2+ yrs of his tasteless, colourless and odourless rule. only a simpleton believes dt mega-projects as power plants and systems r planned, financed, constructed and fired at capacity under 3 yrs. na soup?
