aribisala0: It was claimed that accidents on bad roads are due to corruption .

The President rejects this stating that most accidents occur on good roads.

Our president seems to have a problem with logic.

If a fisherman tells me that he tends to catch more fish in his boat than when he is in his car do I conclude that this is because his boat makes him a better fisherman??

He did not dispute that their are "BAD ROADS" but has informed Nigerians that there are also some "GOOD ROADS"(This is as Bob Alan would say LEVEL 25 NEWS!) Let us accept this assertion for discussion sake. We would still like to know which roads are the good ones SO WE CAN AVOID THEM and which ones are the BAD so WE CAN USE THEM to save our lives.

I have considered his words for over an hour and still do not get his reasoning. Is he actually admitting that YES THERE ARE BAD ROADS DUE TO corruption but That is what is better for Nigerians because THEY HAVE BAD ATTITUDE to good roads. If you give them good roads they tend to crash MORE OFTEN? Give them bad roads and they have the right attitude

Honestly "I Perplex".

shymexx: This woman has to be the most confident woman in the world going out like this with that cheese fat belly...

Anyway, the 40J will bring all the boys to the yard...

Concept: A lot is wrong with the pics, the president had no eye contact with the military man, the military man was preparing to have a handshake whereas in their way of life, they usually salute senior colleagues & the president should be seen as the commander in chief. Eye contact means a lot as well as the way you shake hands. Those traits sometimes exhibit your level of confidence.

Knowledge9000: If you declare, problem. If you refuse to declare, problem. What do you need my friend? Forget about all these lies about Bureau de change receipt and bank slip nonsense...they will ask for more. No be Naija we dey. They just want to cut share from it.

What do you think the Gentleman is taking such amount of money to China for if not for business? Who is so foolish to launder money to China...for what if not business.

Now, you people have to understand that, in Nigeria today, it is difficult to wire huge amount of money, virtually impossible and the limit for private individual from personal accounts is $10,000 a day( CBN stipulated this well over 7 yrs ago)except you have to open up a business/commercial account to wire more but still has limit and rigorous application for approval . [b]The Gentleman figured out that as an individual with personal account, wiring upwards of $400,000 will take well over 80-90 days( 3 months) including wire downtime as wire takes at least 2-3 days and non working days(weekends & holidays). So he decided to do this and many business men/women going to China and Qatar do this.[/b]

InvertedHammer: They announced the ban on sugar about two weeks before the ban takes effect.

So if your sugar consignment do not land at the port by Dec.31st, 2012 you will be pretty much screwed.

What a good way to ruin business.

seunfly: yeah! you are right, but how many uni graduate will want to do traffic management and stay under the sun in Nigeria especialy Lagos. Just thinking loud!!!

Many South Koreans concerned about the country’s increasing religious polarisation are
haunted by a single image – their president on his knees.

While attending a national prayer breakfast in March, Lee Myung-Bak knelt to pray at the urging of Christian leaders.

Footage of the event shocked many in this pluralist country, where about half the population professes no particular faith and the remainder is split between Buddhists, Christians and homegrown creeds.

taharqa: Now assuming this #6.2billion is actuali to be usd for publicity (whateva dat means), then it is both wasteful and stu.pid. Howeva, i seriously doubt it; and what to see d Minister being directly quoted as saying it, and also importantly wud want to see the breakdown of the proposd Budgetary spending. Since Oct, many Nigerian newspapers reportd that the Presidency was going to use #1.3billion to feed itself cos they saw d sum as d amount proposd under the heading 'food, entertainment and other expenses' when the actual amount meant for food and entertainment for thousands of ppl (villa residents and guests) was #203million when the details of d that budgetary heading was releasd. Moreova, only #17million was approvd for publicity dis yr from d article, so it hard to bliv dat #6.2billion wud be usd for 5 yrs when only #17m was appropiatd in d main yr of lobbying for the bill..... Lets find out the details sha, and if it is true that #6billion was actuali proposd just for publicity (again, what d heell does dis mean), then it is most wasteful and shld not be approvd by d NA, period

playmode: No dumbazz,it is you that GOD needs to deliver from the pit of abject mental slavery.I don't give a sh*t about Jonathan and his family.When the looters and their relatives die in this country it is their slaves who weep the most.They do not care about you so why care about them.Jonathan and his crew are a bunch of heartless animals who deserve death for the high treason they have perpetrated in this country.When his wife was overseas and sick ,it is the slaves who were crying here on nairaland wishing her speedy recovery. If you still can't deduce what i am getting at then you are a slave ,a typical African slave.When people like you realize that Africa will never progress unless we stop worshiping these cretins who we also intentionally elect knowing beforehand that they mean us harm ,maybe then we can build this continent. Until then we will remain what we are, the the most idiotic , intellectually deficient, regressive and primitive race on GOD's green earth.It is people like you who are holding this continent back because instead of being intelligent ,calling a spade a spade and doing what is right and just ,you prefer to hail your slave masters like this : Alaye Baba, Director general,Commander general,commodore,chief chief,Area father, Alhaji , Honorable and all those other ridiculous titles you bestow upon them to receive handouts.The truth is a bitter pill to swallow but it is the truth and no amount of "and co" mentality on nairaland will make me stop voicing my opinion no matter how painful it may sound to some here.

mrkels: We didn't respect our own prophets, that's what happened, we never encouraged them and we didn't give them a chance, I also think the government didn't help matters too. If it was a better country, the governemt would make dstv face unbearable challenges that would make them run away from the country thereby causing the nigerian companies to grow. Anyways, maybe they did, and dstv did some lobbying and the governmet couldn't do anything in the end. You really never can tell!

okpara ugo: Dont mind them. They are remodelling airports when our roads are un-motorable. What percentage of Nigerians use the airports frequently

How many times i dey enter plane in a year sef? Clueless leaders.

toygod2: Attention, one thing u guys dont understand is dat, either directly or indirectly,u are helping her to market the song.

People with different mockery picture,saying tonto dis,tonto dat even gives it more promo,making somebody like me wanna download the track and listen to the wackness.

Weda good or bad,i knw it has little or no effect on her financial status....and funniest thing is dat, TONTO is definitely somwia else enjoyin her life,not knowing abt the guys on nairaland wabblin dia mouth on her song.

Abeg,lets save our self the unnecessary stress. Gud a.m

pDude: Hmmm! This song is terrible o!!

But lemme tell you guys something. The song will generate so much bad news on the media that many people will want to listen to it, hence it will receive a lot of popularity and be a very very big (terrible) hit song. Just like the kind of press the ALUU 4 received. A negative thing but with a lot of popularity.

Horus: If instead they spend this N654.02 million on Solars Panels they can have free electricity from the sun 24 hours per days and 365 days per years. Another case of mismanagement.
