[quote author=slim fit ]Good ideas he has but most would not last. He doesn't back his ideas with good laws that would make it last . Most are just cosmetic.[/quote]what's this one saying? Do you know the number of times FG has interfered with Lagos affairs?

veraponpo: So all the claims by our Igbo brothers and sisters that they are the ones building Lagos economy is totally insignificant. So they are the ones enjoying Lagos by making money....

Thank God for a report like this. Whole sale/Retail meaning commercial activities are less than 9% of the economy of Lagos. All the Ladipo, Alaba, Trade fair market people are just making money for themselves... They will travel to the East in December to spend money made in Lagos.

lol...true

wtf

desgiezd: This is a very beautiful city, a city at peace with itself. One can see the positive usage of oil money for the benefit of all. I pity my Country, Nigeria, its like we are retrogressing while other smaller, unpopular nations are seriously and positively moving ahead!

really? With all the FDIs we're attracting? Next time, be specific (retrogression in infrastructure, agreed)

scribble: I think I recognize that a.ss

wtf!, do you 'do' donkeys

Cubeet: let me tell you something, No country in this world likes Nigeria and Nigerians. Inshort, they are the most hated African country . Why cant you stay and build your country instead of running to other country in search of greener pasture . So, you cant make it in your country?

kindly elaborate... also, provide the source of your stats..

Thanks

Restro Flamez: ya true , true

where is the rendezvous?

sweetcheecks: Do not pretend as if you are not concerned about other people's issues otherwise you would not be quoting what you are right now. By the way get uptodate with your insults we are winning our wars with rape` and Aids which is something I cannot say about Nigeria.Bloody hipocrite! Besides, Nigeria is an embarrassment to the world and Africans at large your not taking care of your business affects me in my country as ye'all keep crawling everywhere to seek greener pastures. I will stop commenting when your people stop trooping to SA like muggots, when we can claim, Hilbrow, Sea Point, Brooklyn, Sunnyside, Point back from your Nigerian immigrants. We want you to succeed dont you know that so we can be free of you people. You need to get your country right becouse you are being a nuisance to others.
Now go hang yourself as I will always have my say, whether you


like it not!

aids yes, crime nope, rape nope

you're uninformed as regards the UAV.. you could have done more research

PapaBrowne: And some people actually scream Eko Oni Baje!!!!

This is Luanda that is just out of a long war situation. Infact, Tinubu was already in power when the war ended in 2002. And all these developments happened in a space of less than 10 years. Lagos and Abuja should hide themselves in shame!!

But looking at these pictures of development, it is pretty obvious Nigerians have a very low standard. We need to demand more quality from our leaders and ourselves and accept less of trash. If Luanda can experience this much in a space of less than ten years, why not Lagos, why not Abuja, why not Port Harcourt??

unfortunately

Built2last: i need to be in that country in my next holiday. but how safe is it ?

When world bank releases data, the whole world have access to them, when FG falsify their claims, only Nigerians read it.. what's the point? The damage has already been done..

chris365: this is the reason why i dislike most south africans on this forum... Liars. liars. liars with egotistic problems.

don't try me when it comes to history, even south african. cos i seem to know more about your country's history than you lots.

[size=13pt] South Africa Growth of the Defense Industry[/size]
South Africa's domestic arms industry originated in 1940 with the appointment of an Advisory Committee on Defence Force Requirements to study and to assess the country's military-industrial potential. Relying on its recommendations, the government, with British assistance, established six factories to produce or to assemble ammunition, bombs, howitzers, mortars, armored vehicles, and electronic equipment

Before the voluntary UN arms embargo was declared mandatory in 1977, South Africa received military technology through licensing agreements, primarily with West Germany, Italy, Israel, France, Belgium, and Canada. Licensing and coproduction agreements in the 1970s and 1980s made it difficult to distinguish between fully indigenous military manufactures and those that relied on foreign manufacturing capabilities

[size=13pt] Defying International Embargoes[/size]
Despite the numerous international embargoes against arms trade with South Africa in the 1970s and 1980s, it nonetheless developed the most advanced military-industrial base on the continent.

in the deliberate refusal by several countries to comply with the embargoes; in Pretoria's use of clever and covert circumvention techniques; and in its ability to develop and to exploit advanced commercial and "dual-use" technologies for military applications. By the late 1960s, South Africa had acquired at least 127 foreign production licenses for arms, ammunition, and military vehicles. South Africa had purchased fighter aircraft, tanks, naval vessels, naval armaments, and maritime patrol aircraft, primarily from Britain. After that, military equipment was carefully maintained, upgraded, and often reverse-engineered or copied, after the embargo made it difficult to obtain replacements or replacement parts.

During the 1970s, South Africa expanded and refined its ability to acquire foreign assistance for domestic military production. Its broad-based industrial growth enabled it to shift imports from finished products to technology and components that could be incorporated into locally designed or copied military systems. Through this maneuver, multinational firms and banks became major sources of technology and capital for South Africa's defense industry, even during the embargo era.

Dual-use equipment and technology--such as electronics, computers, communications, machine tools, and industrial equipment--and manufacturing techniques were not subject to embargo and were easy to exploit for military applications. South African engineers also were able to modify, to redesign, to retrofit, and to upgrade a wide range of weapons using foreign technology and systems.

South Africa also invested in strategic foreign industries; recruited foreign technicians to design, to develop, and to manufacture weapons; rented and leased technical services, including computers; and resorted to cover companies, deceptive practices, third-country shipments, and outright smuggling and piracy to meet its defense needs. By the 1980s, the defense industry, as extensive as it was, was nonetheless incapable of designing and producing some advanced military systems, such as high-performance combat aircraft, tanks, and aerospace electronics.


The new Government of National Unity in 1994 faced the dilemma of whether to dismantle the defense industry many of its leaders had reviled for two decades or to preserve a lucrative export industry that still employed tens of thousands of South Africans. After some debate, President Mandela and Minister of Defence Joe Modise decided to maintain a high level of defense manufacturing and to increase military exports in the late 1990s

so please stop deceiving yourselves and some ignorant south africans that you developed your defence industry alone during sanctions. western countries traded with SA, helped you with your military capabilities. even SA was Britains largest trading partner in Africa under sanctions. while Nigeria was completely abandoned because we didn't have European settlers. Fact

do you think i just come here blabbing without proof like you. i'm just not accustomed to the copy and paste mentality you people depend on to pass information.

like i said earlier, Nigerian defence industry is very young and wholly indigenous and so far we are doing very well. deal with it or go flush your head in a toilet.

hmmm

Hmmm

ThankGod Edeh: GEJ! GEJ!! GEJ!!!
The most performing president Nigeria have ever know.

una don dey collect gifts from fg Abi

some username: We are ok with gays, but nobody likes public display of gayness (aka waving dicks and walking with naked butts). Almost nobody (except for the same radical neo-nazis and some religious crazies) cares if someone is gay as long as he doesn't publicly announce their perversions. Most people think about it as of coprophagia - nobody cares if you eat shit in your home, but you better not do it in public.
Also gays are associated with westerners here and most of the people hate or at least dislike west.

same with Nigeria, However the media blows thingz outta proportions

Logicboy03: Ah, it seems we have found one of GEJ's numerous pastors

I de tell you

City needs quite a few skyscrapers to balance.. for now, it's looks somewhat dead

rman: It so glaring when you see cities that have power. Look at Luanda at Night, beautiful!

And we keep deluding ourselves we are the giant if Africa. Abuja doesn't even come close to this due to lack of power and a few shabby settlements . Other African countries are fast catching up.

Let us keep practicing ethnic politics, religious bigotry, continue to embrace corruption,in a few years threads will spring up on social media on how Angolans hate Nigerians. Because we soon start trooping there. It is just a matter of time. Why? Because we lack the capacity to develop by ourselves. It is not due to the system of government, it is the people.

Nigeria is a dark country where majority are not smart but think they are . Unfortunately, this illogical species far outnumber the logical ones and are multiplying at an astronomical rate that we will soon end up with the dumbest nation on earth.

I'd say majority are greedy
