No be laughing matter bros. You wouldn't want to be an elder begging young people you raised for sustenance. Nothing vex man pass lack of payment for labour. Try that on building site and bricklayer will bust breeze block on your head.

I have a cousin who was in final year of PHD in UK under Rivers scholarship when Wike came in. Amaechi had used all the money for 2015 elections and Rivers was owing his 2nd and 3rd year fees. Wike refused anything till date and bros has not graduated. 3 years of sweat down the drain. Hundreds of Rivers students were stuck abroad like this and came home with nothing. Why won't such students rob the Govt if they ever make it into power

This is why I always insist that Federal Govt is infinitely better than State Govt when people start talking about State Police, more state power etc cos I have never seen FG owing salaries while many states are approaching 3 years unpaid, not to talk of pensioners.
The issue of gratuity is not perculiar to Rivers state.

I stand to be corrected but I don't think there's any state that is not owing. In Ogun state, my mum has not been paid since she retired in 2014.

Let Donjazet come and tell us when his state governor last paid gratuity.

Akwa Ibom and Delta states are also oil producing states and are owing billions of naira in gratuity.

This is not to make an excuse for Wike but just to show you how his gets overblown for reasons best known to his antagonists.

As for the scholarship, Ameachi already stopped paying before Wike came on board. Yet, Wike is the one who gets all the blame. We can point one finger at Wike for not continuing but the remaining four points at Amaechi who started a project he was not ready to complete despite having the means to do so.

I completely agree with your last paragraph.
Car Talk › Re: Mileage Of A Car At 242474 Good Or Bad by Itsrm(m):

Mad man. I see you are a car dealer. You fit carry your own money buy car of 242,000 miles.

Are you saying the value of a 50,000 or 100,000 mile car is the same as 242,000 any where in the world


Na your papa be jon snow. Were Asaba!!!
People just like arguing unnecessarily

The guy himself will not go near a low mileage car on auction because oyinbo no go allow am buy am. They bid them through the roof.

The ones they leave for us are the ones beyond 150k miles.

So the oyinbo people know how relevant mileage is but come here on nairaland you start hearing how maintenance is the main thing as if low mileage vehicles don't get maintained. Na only high mileage ones dem dey maintain.

I will not use my money to buy a car significantly above 150,000 miles.

Just look at him, smiling while giving excuses for a corrupt politician who is actively impoverishing his own subjects of which you are one. angry angry
Tell me this is not a slavish mentality. Abi you don sell your conscience for garri?
Let me tell you where I'm coming from. The company I work for has a contract with Saipem and Liquid bulk that requires me going to the two places from time to time. Both companies are accessible through two roads, Aker and Nkpor road.

Back in 2018, the entire Aker road was not motorable, that road ranks among the worst road I have ever seen. NKPOR road was even worse.

What I usually did then was park my vehicle by the main road(Iwofe road) and take Keke over 4kms down to my destination. This had its own problems. Sometimes I forget things in the car and I have to take Keke back to the main road. It was very inconvenient. If I ever attempt to take my vehicle through that road, the next number I'll be calling will be that of a panel beater or mechanic

Today, both Nkpor and Aker roads have been completely rehabilitated.

How about traffic congestion at Artillery and Rumuola? You don't want to know what we went through in those places before he constructed those flyovers.

Visit the state owned universities (UST and Ignatius) and compare the ambience, road network, lecture halls with that of uniport. Even a blind man who visits can tell the difference. Everytime I vist UST or Ignatius, there is always one ongoing building project funded by the state. I can't remember the last time I saw anything of such in uniport.

How about security? Do you know how people used to be kidnapped in this town back in the days? People will have money and be scared of buying vehicles for fear of being kidnapped.


What you have in Wike is someone whose every misstep gets overblown. Does he have his own failings? Yes. Who does not.

Has he done tremendously well in Rivers state inspite of his failings here and there? The obvious answer is yes

I am sure if you had the chance you would have place a bet on Wike winning atiku yesterday grin

I knew it was a long shot but I expected him to win. Results of yesterday showed I was not wrong. If Tambuwal did not chicken out, it would have been much closer

From Wike will win Atiku, to Wike tried grin. He tried by wasting Rivers State money on a fruitless venture. The weyrey is owing Pensioners and have refused to pay Gratuity for years. EFCC is patiently waiting for him...
What he owes them is arrears. They are getting their pension

Which government does not owe gratuity?

Explain how this is the image of when Valverde got the ball
Even this image still does not help your argument.

You want him to move towards Valverde who will get to the ball first and simply play the ball forward and beat him with his lightening pace.

He did what he was supposed to do. All trent had to do was keep track of his own man.

I don't remember ever telling you you you were a fan of Wike. The conversation was centered around who will offer the delegates more money and consequently who will win the presidential primaries for the PDP.

If you knew that northern moneybags will add to Atiku's money what was the point of all your analysis about the money Wike and Udom had at their disposal knowing that it would still not match up to what Atiku and his northern gang will have to offer?

The dispute is not that complicated. You are a well-researched guy. Throwing snide remarks like "trust me bro" and "beer parlor analysis" is uncalled for. From the beginning I had already said that Nigerian politics is not the way most people are overanalyzing it here. For instance, you can see them quickly switch to Okowa this, Tinubu that, North Central bla bla. Most of it is emotion laden.

If Tinubu gets the APC presidential candidature, he will be Nigeria's next president. People can clearly see the writing on the wall but they'll rather pretend they did not just because they don't like what it is saying.
@OfficialAPCNg MUST field a NORTHERNER if we want to win.

https://www.nairaland.com/7150874/justice-ffk-congratulates-atiku
For our party the APC , it is no longer feasible to talk about Southern candidate except the APC want to go on political retirement.

https://www.nairaland.com/7150768/kalu-asks-buhari-pick-successor
APC members are already telling you it's political suicide fielding Tinubu and you're still here beating your chest over the obvious

This was how you were forced to go on exile when you placed a bet on City winning the league when it was obvious to every ther person they were never going to win

The Wike expert himself. See how bullish you sound even when you know what just happened to your man. grin
What happened to him? He did exceptionally well.

People who never expected him to have up to a hundred votes think they can troll him for losing with 237

He started running even before Carvajal teamed up, was still running until Valverde laid the pass.

He had just one job to do, anything apart from RUNNING AWAY.
Even in this your shot, at any point he decides to run towards Valverde, Carvajal becomes a free man

Trent is 100% at fault for that goal. It's not the first time I've seen Liverpool concede the exact same way because Trent couldn't keep track of his man.

It's a known issue with him. How we are suddenly laying it on VVD is beyond me. Only a foolish defender like boateng would have rushed to tackle Valverde

Atiku would likely pick Governor Okowa of Delta as his running mate
Especially if APC actually field Tinubu

Tinubu will win APC ticket.
I don't know if you're saying this because you believe it to be true or because Tinubu is your preferred aspirant

If APC tries this, then the election has been lost before it even started. I know you said the North don't vote along ethnic lines but I don't see Borno, Kano and Katsina giving block votes to a Tinubu over an Atiku. Even if Tinubu somehow manages to win, the margin is really going to be close

All PDP has to do is give the VP slot to a very strong contestant in the SS who will get them SS and SE votes.

Are you seriously banking on Tinubu winning based on votes from the south west alone?

I have tried so hard and can't see what you're seeing

Unlimited22, actually Okowa is the perfect VP choice as he brings in Niger Delta and Igbo to the table, and Delta return big numbers. If they can create a good bridge with Wike and Udom, they can lock a lot of votes in AkwaIbom and Rivers too. Those are your 3 big Southern States

I don't see how Tinubu can pick an Igbo running mate, that's a losing ticket against Atiku and Okowa

APC need to think hard. Jonathan seems their only viable way out
The VP slot will largely depend on who wins the APC primary election. Its still too early to say

You are making the same mistake all over. APC candidate *insert anybody* will most likely win the presidential elections. It is not that hard.

You shouldn't be. Atiku will more than double wike's tally. Wike never had a chance!

So the north still wants to rule for another 8 years. THUNDER!!
More than double what? 237 to 371

Anyway, we are in deep trouble. If APC tries to field anyone from the south they will lose.

And when Atiku does another 8 years and the Southern PDP members are clamouring rotation, all APC has to do is field a Nothern candidate and the presidency will stay in the North till eternity
