The last point first- Our people become richer we will not need to become illegal immigrants, as for the poor Brit society will take of him or her so no need to become an illegal immigrant.

Asian used technology and cheap labour to build a manufacturing base, Nigeria and Africa have both raw materials and manpower we can't we build our own factories? and we get upset when other people build them for us, Lebanese, Indian , Israeli, instead immigration, customs, local govt, press, etc will continue to harass these foreign entrepreneurs - when we make our country so difficult to carry out business only the worst die-hard entrepreneur will come (it's takes 48 hours and the equivalent of N5000 to register a ltd company in UK, in Nigeria it takes 3 months and costs close to N150k, whose fault is this? Cameron and his trade mission?)

we should stop looking accusingly at people who are looking for business but rather find a away to grow our own business, colonial mentality has nothing to do with it. he only people with colonial mentality are those Nigeria Civil Servants still shifting one file to other like 50 years ago.

His slut Murdorch needs him now, he ran to Nigeria

@ideylaff: you truly make me laugh.
My man, if it makes you feel better that Mike Adenuga is poor, so be it.

Instead of all this hate, why no just ask your father where he was and what he was doing when Mike was making all this money?

Whether you like it or not, Mike will continue to cap big things all over the world while you and your people continue to get more headaches.

[b]@ zomby,,,[/b]why did u have to go so so so so so so so so low and show your level of upbringing to mention my fathers name in this issue.

Where in here did this thread warrant that, no one is begrugging Mike 4 any reason, the argument was that his level of wealth is not as reported,

was there any need to add my father to it.

I'm really ashamed with the level of mannerism you have displayed over a simple thread like this.

People like you are a disgrace to the society if I may add. what a mannerless Person you truly are,

You dont know who I am and I see no reason for my dad to be added to this thread. Please Please Please,

Please dont put fingers into my throat, I am a well brought up and respectable person but every human being has a break point

Just because you have a laptop,or key board and mouse dont mean you should display the manners of a tout on-line.

You can go own sticking your tongue in Mikes bum as long as you like,

The rest of us, are OK with our lives if you may know.

For the record, GLO belongs to Mike 100%, Conoil 75%, worldspan 100%, ETB also 100%.
No outstanding loans,or any partners.

ETB was taken away from him for exactly 3 days.
It took that long for CBN/Sanusi to realize the economy downfall that was about to take place if the bank wasn't returned right away.

98% of almost 500 ETB buildings belongs to Mike, over 2000 ETB official cars belong to this man and 90% of the dough in ETB's acct also belongs to him.

First, they can never be successful taking the bank away from Mike.
Second, if they're successful how do they plan to operate when every single machinery, building and so on belong to mike?.
And then finally, if they're successful taking the bank, who exactly are they going to hurt? Definitely, isn't going to be Mike Adenuga.

My cousin lost her job on the 1st day cos she got in the same lift with Mike,

Mike went, as soon as he got into his office, who was thatgirl in the lift a few minutes ago, I want her sacked,

That's it,


Eiiii unfortunately she learned late and at a high price, my God, way employment is tough diz days!!!
Well u dare NOT. haha. by the time paddy (talk less of the daddy) steps his foot on ground life has to stop for a few seconds so that y'all bow and scrape to him then WAIT til he gets inside his elevator ooo

But hey life's good

thats bad but are you sure thats all the truth?

I dont think that is enough reason to fire someone.

Harry Akande

He is stupendously wealthy yet humble

Probe my bottom. Anybody that allows himself to be decieved by this was either not here for the last Assembly or has a short memory.

The question we need to ask is what happened to all the previous probes our impotent NA has ever conducted.

I'll tell you:
1. They constitute a probe committee whose job is to collect travel allowances travelling all over the country looking at things they know absolutely zero about.
2. They start soliciting and receiving bribes from the affected companies.
3. Zero report, nobody gets punished.
4. If we are lucky the EFCC will start an endless case of corruption against members of the probe panel - 4 years hence, while they enjoy their carefully orchestrated looting.

Remember you heard it here first - it is a prophecy.

It really doesn't look like this Ajimobi guy has anything in package for the people of Oyo state. I think this is the same old "Blame-it-on-the former-administration game. They all use the first 1 year to "Investigate" the former administration, run to the press and castigate them. Use the second year to do all their own looting. Use the 3rd year for some fleamsy looting oriented project and the 4th year for no-enough-time campaign/last looting oriented projects. We are tired of this style of governance.

Someone please tell him to start working instead of blaming the former administration. You've not even started anything and you're blaming your failure or someone else already.

GBAM, thanks for that @ playboy19

also thanks to @ MeGaStReEt , @ naijababe, @ Tony , @ dami_paul, @ Talkyaown and all other contributors tro this thread,


We are not saying Ajimobi should not probe, but 4 a Governor to be whining 24/7 while the people need action is not a good start to his tenure,

In fact its better not to talk about Akala till he's caught in the net, that way he won't be doing his God father night moves to cover his tracks,

When the Chief Servant of a States' PA keeps whining out via his Oga's views, just shows a give up attitude,

Get ON with the JOB MAN, U promised, or expect an Akala treatment in 4 years time,

When Craze man don take 10 years dance naked.in the market.when he wan do the real craze sef, .

Well, madam, nobody would xpect you to come out and say you cheated on your husband.Some women have been caught red handed and they still  deny talkless of an experienced nollywood actress.But am not saying you did anything o because I was not there.

4. Mrs. Stella Oduah-Ogiemwonyi- Honourable Minister for Aviation, Anambra-SE---RAN GEJ's neighbour to neighbour campaign, owns SPG, wife to former minister and close to GEJ's heart and fits GEJ's 35% women quota

, Baba lon looooooooooo. Aso Property, ever .since, as long as her hubby is compensated, all ok, in the family.

Brov, I will advise you to stop arguing with this people.

Since the day i realized must of them especially Eko-Ile don't leave in Lagos .

I stopped discussing any issue concerning Lagos with them.

All you see them doing is copying and pasting on-line pictures all over NL

Just save yourself from the stress.

They are confirmed sycophants.

Pele !!!

Thank you ooooo @emmatok, LOL,       Even if eko ile does not live in Lagos, still does not mean he should not have any manners at all,

he cannot post without trading words, or bn uncouth in every possible way,

Only wimps engage people in a faceless environment,

The other day, he was having a go @ me saying Fashola is not my mate, unknowingly, that I am closer to Fashola than his sorry case is,

Fash enjoys criticism cos it keeps him on his toes, Ohhh my so if we voted for him, does that mean he his above the law,

That is why he's called a Public Servant, @ eko ile if you may want to know, check the meaning in a dictionary

Grow up please, and stop bn a bully on NL, that is what you are turning into,

Fash don't need Yes Sir men like you, at all,

in fact we laff when we mention sycophants, he can read them a mile away,

How Government go exist without critics, righ or wrong its down to fash to take the positive ones on board and ignore the wrong ones
not for @ eko ile to be acting like a motor park tout on NL, 

NB: if @ eko ile was on another monitored portal with strict rules he would have bn bounced off ages ago
still that's no excuse for his foul mouthed rants, all the time,

Ohh my, Awa Education don wowo ooo if  people loosely use the word A**, and other dirty words like normal lingo on a daily basis.

A keyboard and mouse is not a Licence to have bad manners, or bn rude in any way shape or form,  .

We warned Ngozi Okonjo Iwealla not to take up appointment with no-good GEJ's govt, she didn't hear. Today she has fallen complete mugu of GEJ and PDP's magic. Finance Ministry has been split, GEJ created a new ministry called Trade & Investment Ministry which is overlapping the functions of Finance Ministry. Her powers checked and confined. Sorry we warned you that PDP govt cannot be trusted.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

nor cry ooo,

if I may ask what is about to make u laugh or cry,

I thought this thread was to discuss the flooding and all that . . . how come chairs are flying

What else do you have to tell us and how many times are you going to repeat yourself.

We've heard you, Lagos is trash, Fashola is incompetent, what else is new?

You are sounding like damn broken record and a silly disgruntled elements.

PapaBrowne and Ideylaff just like chatting about things they dont
have any intricate knowledge off,

If these guys had the chance they be licking my Former Boss "Lloyd Blankfein" shoes, !

LOL>>> Mr GS   , @ martinosi if you may want to know, I consulted for

Henry Paulson who happened to precede you former boss, as Chairman CEO of GS,

I have worked on numerous processes and units with GS on a Private consultancy basis, for over
18 years, + , They payed me,  I was not an employee like you, so we see things both from inside and from outside, 

Even if you dont want to take our advice on board, no need to rubbish us and now brag about GS, LOL,

Is that OK boss. FYI, i did not only consult for GS, I did for the Top 10 Investment banks, and also for 5 Central banks in Europe,

Also had a stint with Okonjo Iweala, but the vultures in the polity wont let things work, so I have pride and dignity, intact,

which entity or unit in GS u work for self, just joking bro, i take your point on board as well,

Why all the needlessly and ignorant essay?

Even a day old baby sabi say the gutter in front of your house and under your street is a drainage system.

Do you really need me to define that for you?


Now, tell us how this definition is different from what's available in many households and streets in Lagos,


Btw, our drained water drains into the Atlantic and when the Laogs Lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean pushes higher than normal because of the same rain, there's no where for the water to go hence flooding and it's the same case even in the most advanced countries with good drainage systems.


Illiterate Olodo people trying t sound intelligent, but they still lack basic common sense.

Which Lagos water is draining into the Atlantic Ocean, 4 where, I begiiiii Mr Yap every Nairalander, u don start with your
illusion again, dream ideas again,

Do you really have to use something bad happening in another country or another part of the world to compare your country to make u look good.

Okay if that's d case, why don't u use something good in another country like Malaysian development to compare what state your country is in right now, since we both got our independence around the same time,

People like you are always saying shebi it floods in Yankee, shebi it took America 100 years to get it right, is that the answer,

So because BRF is the best performing Governor, we cannot talk about his short comings, what do you think is called criticism leads to perfection if the
person takes only 30% of it on board

I repeat, we know BRF, I have him on my BB and I have told him my own mind,

Kill off the Airport Project in Lekki and face the real basic problems and you name will be written in GOLD,

Any point in building roads that water will destroy as soon as it rain, any point in spending on a new airport
when there is no road to get there.

shioooorrrr. MR @ eko ile by force,

water flowing into Atlantic.ko water flowing into Pacific Ocean ni, show me naw,

4rm time immemorial a drainage system in Nigeria stop at the adjacent street and it never links each other

So as soon as you see a big hole by the street that a drainage system, duhhh

I begi no come call dog as monkey for us here, please

@ eko ile, you reasoning level is surely belkow sea level the way and manner in which you conduct yourself on here with name
calling and the use of abusive and uncouth words,

You sure are beyond a fix,

It's either you have good mannerism or you simply dont, in you case, I suggest you check yourself inside and seek help, b4 you post,

Even a Primary school kid will do better and post in a public forum without bn abusive,

Grow up if u have not and if you have, Learn how to control your "it's only my word that counts stance/attitude u carry around"

God Help YOU. AMEN,

Stop talking rubbish, all the new roads in Lagos state have drainage and sidewalk. By law, you can not construct any road in Lagos without both.


Educate yourself before talking trash,

These are new roads and they all have drainage systems,

Please educate us @ eko ile, what is the definition of a drainage system

1. Please don't tell me its a deep dug trench that stretches to the end of a street and then pours into the adjoining one, please don't.

B4 u start talking of a drainage system on here, get a proper understanding of what  a drainage system is, cos I think u don't

its got nothing to do with how deep the trench is dug, at all,

9ja drainage system with no terminus/terminal for the waste, not connecting anywhere, tell me now if Sanusi Fafunwa waste links anywhere to any road,

stop making Lagos look like some developed city, please,

u wont find a dead body lying on d side road for days in a place that has a good environmental system, would you ?


Please be easy on me for exposing your ignorance

making the most noise don't mean the most sense, hop u know that b4 u start to call people all sorts of names like u usually do,

Drainage system. LOL, in a city where they are using lantern to construct roads at night, while the Oyinbos are busy Lounging in Sheraton and the God father has already taken his bulk share of the road money, issshhh

Can we also deal with NOW and not blame any past Government, Fashola is responsible for Lagos now, not Jakande, also the revenue bn generated now is astronomical in figure, if managed well it will go a long way,

Drainage system don't mean rocket science system,, a University Graduate can design a simple one and workable process

we just happen to like to do seminars, talk talk and no action

I'm waiting for a banner like "HOW TO DEAL WITH LAGOS FLOOD IN THE 21ST CENTURY" with the whole Ministry staff sitting round a table smiling for network news and also drinking tea and coffee and eating food for a week. with no action after that, thats the norm, tok talk talk, 

Yet this same man wanted to buy Osaze for less than 2milla?

Olusegun Aganga, Nigeria’s former finance minister, took up a new position today as trade and investment minister in President Goodluck Jonathan’s Cabinet, the ministry said in an e-mailed statement.
Aganga’s job at the new ministry is to attract private investment to help grow the economy of Africa’s most populous country of more than 150 million people, according to the statement.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-07-11/nigerian-president-jonathan-makes-aganga-trade-and-investment-minister.html

I'm betting on him to flop again. I have no faith in this fellow, he made some schoolboy errors on his last appointment. Well, you would not expect much more from someone with a degree in Biological Sciences and Theology

Well, you would not expect much more from someone with a degree in Biological Sciences and Theology

@ 2bosun That's not a nice thing to say about those disciplines, whats wrong with a degree in Biological Sciences and Theology, the fella made it to the top @ Investment Bank, which means he has substance but might not have the where with all to handle a complex country like Nigeria and the polity of a Political setting, thats haba,

The Guy goofed @ the senate hearing, yes he did, but hey, the fella was Finance Minister during an election. (the most pressured situation), you think its that easy to say NO to PDP when they come up with all their mago mago we need money within the system for this and that,

You have to be able to play the game smartly and diplomatically, that is another area Aganga failed in,

Apart from that our finances are not that complex to run, trust me,  we make it look like rocket science, its not,

CUT CORRUPTION, REDUCE OVERHEADS WITHIN THE CENTRE/SLASH RED TAPE and BUREAUCRATIC.OFFICES, LASTLY ENCOURAGE AND GENUINELY BOOST SME'S  (Small Medium Enterprise -THE DRIVERS OF A DEVELOPING NATION) AND NOT JUST with lip service attention/uncontrolled seminars and presentations,  simple AS

Even a 2nd year Economics graduate can offer that advice , without batting an eyelid.

An Okonjo Iweala situation, is not really a jump up and dance alleluia  solution in my opinion, if we dont fix all the above ,she will be working 4 steps forward and 3 steps backwards, till her tenure runs out.

The World Bank runs itself, whether you have an expert at the helm of the affairs or not Harvard or Not, so I don't see why the party over Okonjo is all about,  Okonjo was purely administrative, if you follow her career path,

That's why in her last stint, it was always PowerPoint Presentations, session after session, was in a few of them and I thought, madam, I've seen this b4, we need the basics, simplified that will impact the lives of people on a daily basis, no need for IMF to tell us that we are going to
grow 1, 3 or 5 % this year, we know the things to do, if we do them right, we will grow, and we have the population factor on our side as a plus

GOD help us,

In fact my fear is that she does not follow what the are taught @ Harvard + IMF + Worl Bank, to the letter,  "Deliver more countries into our hands for the bondage to contuinue, or we make the markets difficult for you to survive in, 

Shame we do more imports than export so we have nothing to brag with like China or Japan, what can we flood the market with as a bargaining chip,  Dangotes Cement, or Noodles,  LOL,

Goodluck to both Okonjo and Aganga, cos their roles are very important in shaping out future,  May the vultures in Aso allow them to function.right, AMEN

Im yet to understand why people love this woman soo much.What difference has her influence or the WB reflection of Nigerias economy, made to each of your lives individually?
What new developments have u noticed that can be directly connected to herself or improvement of the nation?
Excessive media hype- How much are they going to pay her? How much of Nigeria will Nigerians own after shes done?

The country has only just started!! you all have no idea!

Thank you my bro ooooo,

Who was the last MD of the World Bank, eeehn, duh, no one remembers, right, that tells you that role is just a pen pushing/red tape  administrative role, that we Nigerians glorify like we sing and dance Harvard, MIT once its on a CV.

I don't begrudge Ngozi for what she has achieved, but can we stop over hyping this role as if, it the same as bn The Finance Minister of a country,

since when has the world bank mad a difference to a countries life, other than make it worse,

Goodluck to her for giving it a go once again, but I'm just curious what impact she can make with those vultures in Aso still @ the helm of the affairs of the country.
