That is the only fly over in the whole of Ekiti state.

And it is a very useless one at that... The fly over leads to the same destination as the road it was built on.

**********
There is no single traffic in Ekiti state and all roads links to each other. so I don't understand what the flyover is about

The designers are as dumb as fayose.

************
The thing whey come pain me pass be say this governor is just plain stupid.

The same amount he embezzled wasted building this bridge can be used to build at least 3 companies in Ado Ekiti.

There is no single company in the whole of Ekiti state to provide jobs. The only sources of income are;

Schools (private/public. This includes the higher institutions)

Churches (the number of churches in Ado Ekiti alone are more than the ones in the whole of Nigeria)

Government jobs (with more than 10,000 ghost workers)

Hotels (with strip clubs patronized by politicians)

Filling stations (owned by politicians)

And yahoo (mostly done by indigene of Ado Ekiti)

**************

If you are not working in any of the above you will die of starvation and Joblessness in Ekiti state. This stupid governor rather build bridges that leads nowhere.


Well the citizens of the state deserves everything happening to them.

PS: I lived in Ado Ekiti for 8 years so don't be unfortunate if you wana quote me

A Nairalander who seriously needs advice sent in this mail. Please read and advise her. Thanks


"I Am still in love with my ex but I am married to a stranger


I wish to seek advice from nairalanders. I will accept insults. I just got married 2 months ago.

Let me start by saying I dated my ex for 4 years. We loved ourselves but you know as the year went by, my ex started showing some attitudes like hiding his phone when sleeping. Also his parents came up that we can't marry, simply becauss I am not same state with him.

While all this played out, this friend of mine connected me to a guy whom came back from abroad to marry. I saw the guy but didn't like him but before we met. I already informed my parents about this guy from abroad who likes me a lot. Without seeking for my approval. My parents got carried away and insisted that it's him they want, not my ex anymore. Out of fustration and pressure I married this new guy but I feel no love for him. My ex also wants me back and I want same because I love him.

I plan to divorce my husband because I can't stand that he Will be my husband for life. I don't love him.

Please advise me."

Nothing to be confused about bro....if you own a business or intend to own one, then it will not just need a website, but one with a blog. The blog part of the site is for you to use to add extra value, provide both formal and informal, serious and fun information about your business, products and services to your clients and targeted audience.

In the other hand...if you just want to tell your story or the stories of things happening around you or your interest or a subject you're passionate about in different niche like Health, sport and entertainment , and you want to do this daily/weekly as it happens in different format ( pictures, videos etc ) then what you just need is a BLOG ( using either WordPress, Blogger or the rest )
