Lol, lolz and lola. These ones have no idea. When you are being pushed by these set of people, do the opposite. This is so simple. If these guys say it is right, i can immediately know it's left.

ChybuzzDD:
Can you listen to yourself? And we're talking about a contract that has already been awarded!

So, how did they determine the cost they used in awarding the contract then?

By guessing

One, estimate, two, budget. That's why you can hear next year that an extra amount of money is approved for a project. Obviously, you don't have experience of handling anything big. Try listening to experience. Not just commentaries.

Afriifa:
People be asking what played out on Arise TV.
Umahi was triggered by Oseni's unprofessional media practice. But as a public servant he ought to have handled it better. Umahi could have simply told him the cost per 1kilometre road, and explained the technicalities behind the overestimated budget.
What does Oseni mean by "reporting me to Mr President?"
Who does he think he is?
Rufai Oseni feels journalism is about having a loud opinion on subject matters that defy his pedigree. There was a day this guy was arguing an economics subject with an established scholar in the name of journalism, even me that was watching felt triggered.
Finally, whether Umahi is right or wrong about his claim of professor in practice, it sha depends on who is judging.
Umahi is a seasoned engineer. where he earned a degree in Civil Engineering in 1987. His early career spanned various engineering roles, including stints with major firms like Saipem and SCC Nigeria Limited. Before his governorship, Umahi held several leadership roles in the private sector, including co-founding Norman Engineering & Construction Nigeria Ltd and leading Brass Engineering & Construction Nigeria Ltd. He is well-known for his tenure as the Governor of Ebonyi State, serving from 2015 to 2023. Managing a small state and delivering. He is the current Minister of Works.
If you are the one, will let someone who has no knowledge no pedigree in your field talk to you in the manner Oseni did in the name of journalism?

Umahi is not a lawyer or media talk person. As an engineer, he should have a media person doing the talk for him. In media, you need the gift of gab, not competence or honesty. Those are not enough in the face of propagandists and people who are pretending to sleep.

The cost per kilometer of a 750km project cannot be determined. It can only be estimated or averaged. And conditions may change. This is not building a kiosk or chicken hutch. The terrain and soils are different. Some will need more work or fillings, some different contractors, some will be bridge. Cost of materials and labour from place to place, weather, some diversions, some unexpected challenges, all differ.
We should focus on intelligence, professionalism and patriotism instead of theatrics and media trials.

Opposition cartoons about Nigeria. Most people are not serious, really.

David Umahi continues to disappoint by giving this fellow attention. You leave people like this to servant of the assistant of the SSA to the deputy of the project manager to handle. Umahi is not dignifying his status at all.

It is well with Christianity at large. What part of gospel is this one?

Looking more like a disaster in waiting. But who am i to judge these books by their covers, if not for mods that said they are very important information.

DeepSight:
Where did I say there is, or where did I indicate that I agree there is?

Thanks too God, you are objective enough to see this one. Stop mentioning me in threads of no interest then.

DeepSight:
Like Daniel Kanu of then, so we have WizardofNG, Image123, helinues, and Seunmsg of today.

mr integral integration. Even the top 5 popular pastors in Nigeria cannot in good conscience say that there is a genocide of christians in Nigeria. Rest.

SmartPolician:
If you have nothing reasonable to contribute to a topic, just read comments and zuzu out. Stop wasting the cyberspace.

The truth is bitter. Speak English.

SmartPolician:
Although I am a devout Christian, I must say that religious leaders have done more harm than good to this country. They sell ordinary Nigerians false hope just so they don't revolt against their political friends.

Politicians and religious leaders are friends, but religious leaders don't call them to order. Only Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah makes efforts to challenge these politicians. God will never do for any man what He has given him the power and intellect to do for himself!

Classic ipod mindset.

anonimi:
Do you mean evil reports like this one of the President?

Professional gnashing.

There must be gnashing of teeth here for those who want to hear evil reports.

i dismissed it over six months ago. Why did it take the court so long?

He should give this advice to the UK with its small landmass. He somehow forgot to compare our population to California. What did he do with minimum wage in late fPMB's government? All these talks professionals.

Lolz, i love how my common people replied in that first page. It's fulfilling.

Let's try to get power for getting power sake. No brake, no jam. What did they do with the so called top to bottom of 2023? Where are they today?

Elusive001:
I choose not to gullible. I choose not to be foolish. I choose not to see the truth and call it a lie or see lie and call it truth because of ethnic and/or religious bias.

Good choice, it helps.

Elusive001:
And building an export terminal is one of them? How will crude oil be exported onshore? How will onshore export terminal work?

Things are looking up in O and G, due to the PIB. You don't need to agree or be happy. It's a choice.

A British citizen of Syrian descent. It seems the world is in big trouble, but we're in denial. Nothing wrong with the lineage, but there should be carefulness and monitoring. People change and people are different, so can't be judged only by descent. But you see allegiance ehn, it's very strong.

Elusive001:


So other companies have not been exporting before Tinubu took over. Na Tinubu do the PIB? Na him and Buhari initiate am? A private company built its terminal and you are praising Tinubu?

PIB is not the reason why the company built the terminal bros.

Even other Tinubu supporters dey shame for you.

Things are looking up in O and G, due to the PIB.

Thanks to the late fPMB and the Jagaban for the PIB. Things are looking up in O and G.

Lolz, but the same opposition will make it about his government in their complaints. Nigeria is not enjoying independence or democracy is about the nation, or about the government?

Fatbam005:
the fact still remains that he does not know you, sing the praises of those that are closer and visible to you they will appreciate it more and stop living in illusion

Lolz, thank you for this life changing advice. Good bye.

Fatbam005:
With this Tinubu should wire reasonable funds to your account but unfortunately he does not even recognize you nor your short sighted praise.

Lolz, this one thinks support for a person must be accompanied with reasonable funding. A new Nigeria is POssible

Second also does things second. Jagaban, the master in the game.

Jakarta:
Does that means Wike taking Sowore to court is SURE?

How would i know? i am not Wike or Wike's spokesman. i just showed how things work. Ruling politicians are usually smart people, not just emotional. You wonder why they have advisers and assistants?

Jakarta:
What stops you from taking Sowore who is accusing you to court, just like what Otedola is trying to do to Sani?

Politicians are smarter than that. Sowore has many cases in court. It's usually done one by one, not together. When he finishes one, he'll take the next one.

MrGerald:
whatever you want to twist about Zik or Ironsi you can go on I'm not interested. Obi was right in his address he just let those with low comprehension to further understand the deep meaning not in anyway an apology

Lolz, me twist? Pulease

WhizdomXX:
I literally said I take my words back. I know OBJ wanted to plant governors in the southwest then but seeing Ladoja was also PDP I thought It favoured him. How deep was Tinubu's role in GEJ's election in 2011?

Tinubu and ACN soft-pedaled their support for Ribadu, indirectly benefiting Jonathan. Similar to what Atiku was expecting from Obi in 2023. Buhari would have benefited from the 'wasted/split' votes of the SW going to ACN.

Tinubu struck a political understanding with the PDP: in exchange for not aggressively challenging Jonathan in the South-West, ACN was allowed to consolidate control of Lagos and other South-West states in the governorship and legislative elections. This arrangement helped Jonathan secure significant votes in the South-West, contributing to his overall victory.
