Corrinthians:
What was wrong with the first one though? Why did they have to build a second one? Why is Buhari so wasteful?

Why did they build the second, third and now planning to build the fourth mainland bridge in Lagos?

yarimo:
Very very poor attendance very unfortunate photoshop pictures don't be deceive

What about the video? Uzodima couldn't even get 5% of this crowd for tinibu.

Only in nigeria you see thieves going after thieves as peter obi earlier said there's absolutely no way oil thefts can be successful in nigeria without the involvement of top govt officials at the highest level the buhari's fulani regime just want to absolve itself before leaving office that's simply why they set up this panel.

Many delta people are planning to vote omo agege because they say that they are tired of the pdp I really hope they won't be regretting their decision at the end of the day I don't understand why they want to vote a character like omo agege who openly stole the senate maze on live tv?

Tinibu is a packaged disaster waiting to happen most apc members already knows this and am sure they will surely vote against him after collecting their own share of the lagos loot.

Mandate2023:
A sincere governor, but dey still did something.......he should go to south east and check if those ones achieve anything, have never seen such a useless lawmakers in d whole of Nigeria like those of south east

Why are you people even so obsessed with the south east?

Imo state really needs a big arena like a standard stadium to host major events like this the hero square and owerri stadium is just too small.

I watched him on ait news this afternoon he said it clearly despite the denials.

herkeem:
Cubana Chief Priest also present......

What is he doing there I thought he is an SSA to apc gov. uzodima?

My state ndimo mma mma nu.

Of all the governors that governed lagos it was only tinibu that refused to let go of lagos state resources he has virtually converted lagos to his personal family business empire yet fools and mentally unstable people still want nigerians to vote him as the next nigeria's president.

Every reasonable person already knows that this is just the truth buhari's apc regime is no doubt the worst in human history. He plunged a once thriving country into being the poverty capital of the whole world within just 3yrs in office what a record.

Rubbish how can a presidential candidate feel comfortable only talking to foreign jornalists and foriegn media stations and not to his own? Is he running to rule over the british people or nigerians?

Kewtt:
Igbos are in extreme poverty. So they have to wait for political patronage to buy transformers.... Igbos are really really extremely poor.

Hate kills faster than anything igbos are definitely not the poorest in nigeria the last NBS statistics clearly stated that the south east is the least poor in the whole country even here in delta state an oil producing state nass members do help their constituencies to buy transformers. In a normal society it's not even supposed to be the duty of electricity consumers to replace damaged transformers and electric polls that should be the duty of the power companies that collect electric bills.

Moh247:




PDP Politicians and mediocres adjectives

Which one come be Mega Transformer again?!

It's always Ultra modern International Market, when they built shops

Wells and borehole are always State of the art Pipe Bourne portable water

Now ordinary electric transformers are now mega in the eyes of SouthEast Senator

Anyways if Ikpeazu can give out sophisticated, untra modern Kerosene and get a second term, Madam Stella also deserves another term


.

Stop writing from the point of hate it's unhealthy.

Only in nigeria u see electricity consumers buying transformers, electric polls, wires, etc for power companies without any compensation from them very abnormal society.

Ned nwoko have proved that with enough money u can get any kind of nigerian lady no matter the class they belong to.

Obi is just too brilliant and humble his kind is too rare to find in nigeria's political space.

gunuvi:

Very shameful. How did we even get to this situation as a country?

We all got here by extreme corruption nigerians are fantastically very corrupt that's why we are presenting people like tinibu to become president the leaders of any nation is a reflection of the people.

Bonesbreaker:
She done use drug shatter her tiny head but this lady lips can hold my di*ck head

Pervert try and see a human being not a sex object.

Apc is just a party founded on igbo hate am not surprised that he is one of them.

Tinibu's hope of winning next year's election are the millions of poor illiterate brainwashed hausa/fulanis in the NW and yoruba bigots in the SW.

AntiWailer:
it can sir.

The dulllard in Aso Rock and his team should optimise our production capacity first.

OPEC allows us to do up to 1.7-1.8 Millions barrels per day on the average.

We have capacity to do 2.2 Million barrels per day.

We are supplying 1 Million per day and at times less. In fact in August we did 927,000 and on the average we do 972,000 bpd.

The problem is not if Oil can feed us. The problem is this dumb leaders to optimize our revenue from Oil while looking at other export options.

That Oil can not feed us is a lie from the PIT OF HELL.

How can 1.7 barrels of crude oil a day feed a population of over 200m nigerians do ur research properly.

legionISproteus:
Oil can feed Nigerians, our terrible leaders are too greedy to let the rest of the population benefit from oil.

Just look at the ridiculous retirement package governors, Deputy governors, the president, vice president etc signed for themselves after leaving office. This does not include what they misappropriated while in office, yet Mr. OBASANJO has the gall to say oil can not feed Nigeria.

Do ur research there's absolutely no way nigeria can be able to feed it's population of over 200m people with just exporting 1.2m barrels of crude oil daily. Countries like Qatar and Saudi Arabia have smaller population but they both export more than nigeria's daily quarter of crude oil.

Very impressive this is a far departure from the ruling apc who prefers to punish and wipe out nigerians that didn't vote from them.

Very impressive a far departure from the ruling apc who prefers to punish and wipe out all those that didn't vote for it.

A viral message surfaced on WhatsApp urging Nigerians to put a mixture of salt and garlic in the corners of their rooms to eradicate wall gecko, with the story that a wall gecko fell into a pot of soup prepared by a housewife in Nigeria unknown to her and killed the woman and her nine children after eating the soup.

It reads, “Slippery House Lizard known as Wall Gecko also called Omonle in Yoruba fell into a pot of soup prepared by a housewife in Nigeria unknowingly and it killed the woman and her 9 children after eating.

“Another woman who prepared Tea in a kettle which the gecko fell into, all the family that drank the tea died.

“Please ensure your food, cooked or raw is tightly closed as this animal is highly poisonous, it also goes with “aljanus” (jinns) – verifiable.

Therefore do everything possible to get rid of this dangerous animal from your home.”

The claim particularly notes that “the reptile goes with jinns and it’s highly poisonous and it is verifiable.” Dubawa opted to verify the authenticity of this claim.

Verification
A keyword search revealed that the claim has been in circulation since 2017, as a news item in Nigeria, the Sun Newspaper categorically alerted Nigerians to kill wall geckos because investigation has shown that the reptile is harmful.

The newspaper warned vividly: “Ordinarily, the skin of the gecko is highly poisonous…To eradicate it in your home, just mix salt and garlic and put mixture in different corners of your room. You will never see them again.”

A response on 9 May 2018 from Udonsi Eke on Nature Cures Initiative Facebook post questioned the credibility of the claim “But I remember eating a wall gecko that was roasted just to make me stop bedwetting in my childhood days. So is this information true?”
Are wall geckos truly harmful?
Animal diversity website describes a wall gecko as a tree-living terrestrial species, living in human-populated areas. A reptile that originated from Southeast Asia but is currently found almost everywhere across the globe. It says wall geckos occur on buildings, mostly near artificial lighting because they are nocturnal insectivores.

With the simple description of this uninvolved reptile that feeds mainly on insects, Dubawa felt the urge to get the thought of an expert, Mrs. Emudiare Tailobi, a zoologist from the University of Jos.

“Wall geckos aren’t venomous, that’s a fact,” Mrs. Emudiare said over the phone, adding that although they can carry some harmful bacteria in their mouths that are detrimental to human health, the reptile is naturally harmless.

Mrs. Tialobi explained that “Wall geckos are not toxic, but they may have picked up harmful bacterias that in large amounts can cause harm to humans.”

Dubawa went further to get more insight from a biologist, Mrs. Nanchin Winifred Kazeh from Leventis Ornithological Research Institute (APLORI) Jos-east Laminga via WhatsApp, and she affirmed that wall geckos are not poisonous
Is it true that the salt and garlic mixture can eradicate wall geckos?
A conversation with a biologist/ornithologist, Nanchin Winifred Kazeh of A. P. Leventis Ornithological Research Institute (APLORI), Jos-east on WhatsApp revealed that the smell of garlic and salt mixture wards off wall geckos.

Mrs. Kazeh said that wall geckos feed on insects such as lizards, nectars, and spiders. And since light attracts insects, wall geckos are found on buildings with artificial lighting, as it helps them spot their prey easily.

“The wall geckos play a very important role in balancing the ecosystem. Yes, their appearance scares most people, but all the protective measures put up by humans only aid the reptile to adapt well to the environment. Wall geckos are important and useful to humans,” Kazeh added.

While urging Nigerians to dismiss outrageous claims, and instead learn to read properly, know the source, and ask appropriate questions, the ornithologist outlined two fun facts which include:

Conservationist fun facts
1. Did you know that natural or human disturbances have resulted in more eggs being laid by the wall geckos?

Implication; the more we disturb them with our garlic and salt mixtures and try to kill them, the more they multiply

2. Did you know that female wall geckos can store sperm for up to a year? This is a trait that likely aids the species’ transportability and invasion success.

Conclusion
Verification has shown that wall geckos are not poisonous as contained in a viral WhatsApp message; instead, they play an important role in balancing the ecosystem. Even though the garlic and salt mixture can scare wall geckos, it will only increase its production.

The researcher produced this fact-check per the 2021 Kwame Karikari Fact-checking Fellowship partnership with JAY 101.9 FM Jos to facilitate the ethos of truth in journalism and enhance media literacy in the country.

Interesting write-up so are saying all those people that died didn't actually die from wall gecko poisoning?

This year's world is so unpredictable a new country that has never won it before might just win it.

Is not even about writing beautiful manifestos anyone can do that all the ones the useless apc wrote in 2015 how many where they able to implement?

Not surprised at all no normal human being will be supporting the drug lord.

I thought obi was still in the US?
