Visionaries cannot be kept down - no matter what those that cannot see beyond their nose are trying to do to stop them. This is the kind of initiative that will in time lead to real development in Nigeria. More grease to your elbow, Gov. Fashola. |
Politics / FG Votes N3bn For Lagos-ibadan Expressway Rehabilitation by koruji(m): 5:04am On Apr 12, 2013 |
No comment for now - just for the records. By December 31st 2013 I hope to be able to say "complete" to President GEJ on this one, even though it falls far short of what that road deserves. Tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock..... @insincere9nigerian The bolded below is what I referenced when saying that Julius Berger's "patch-work" last year was to allow GEJ to get to RCCG, and promptly announced that there was no contract to work on the road once GEJ was done receiving blessings!!! This is not the way a president should administer a nation. http://www.punchng.com/business/business-economy/fg-votes-n3bn-for-lagos-ibadan-expressway-rehabilitation/ |

Absolute bunkum. So many of these glibly written but absolute rubbish history, linking Igbo to everything on planet earth, online. You people will pull one thread out of a cloth, tie another completely unrelated thread to the end of it and another and another and another, all from different cloth - and then claim that your thread was the source of the original cloth.

There is so much information available out there - even with the difficulty of wading through the internet. You learned it in primary school and see no reason to update your knowledge since that time. Ile-Ife dates existed way before the 9th century. aletheia: Concerning the OP's assertion that the name Yoruba originally referred to a more northern dwelling people who were later forced southward into the region now known as Southwest Nigeria; there may very well be some truth to that. Has anyone ever wondered why the Hausa historians have always included Yoruba in the Banza Bokwai. We learnt this as far back as primary school in Lagos, and I 've always been intrigued by that listing. 1 Like |

That's how you people propagate nonsense online. Give this nonsensical claiming Igbo is everything a rest, will you. Igalas are clearly of a common origin as Yorubas - I have theory about this, but this is not the place. But this Igbos are Jews, Japanese, 80% of Lagos, 40% of the North, own Equitorial Guinea, and other such senseless statements need to stop. Thankgodifeduba: many yoruba tribes are igbos. Especially the Egba and Igbo mina people |

Better late than never, but this is the same lackadaisical attitude by the FG that allowed Boko Haram to become a monster. All these many years that Nigerians have been attacked and killed in Bakassi the FG is just waking up now. What a giant!!! mojounited: Good move! Since Bakassi peninsula has fallen to Cameroon, it's imperative to shore up bases and increase military strength/activities in Cross River State in order to monitor activities of the Gendarmes and deter any potential attack or invasion. |

All the FG can say is that it is false - they are not the ones to determine if it was falsified. As a party to the argument the FG need to follow the law of the land, not sit as a judge in her own case. This is what checks-and-balances in democracies are all about. Adura_ngba: |

Sorry o. When someone starts a confession in church to praise God, and you jump in with "I can attest.." you are not only corroborating his story you are invariably praising God. Not that GEJ is God, although from the look of things he is a tin god to many of you around here. Adura_ngba: |

He he he...caught red-handed and confessing already? You should have named the patch-patch roads you were talking about and not make it seem like GEJ is doing anything in the SW. Adura_ngba: I never praised any road in the SW, I simply meant I travelled to the SW from Abuja, through the ongoing Abuja Lokoja dualisation project, through the Okene Ibilo Owo road and from my assessment, the contractors have improved pace on the Abuja Lokoja road, and FERMA has done a lot of rehabilitation on the Okene Ibilo Owo road. I never talked about roads in the SW before someone will use it to praise their ACN moda forkers. |

You are beyond redemption the...sorry o. Just note that your fake road travel "across" Nigeria is mostly due to state govs. The roads GEJ is "working on" can be counted on the fingers of the hand - with its trillion Naira budget - and the numbers keep changing. Rossikk: I spent all night trying to figure out which other president had done so much to upgrade the infrastructure of this country, and I couldn't come up with any name even going all the way back to the Gowon era. Travelling across the country by road is becoming such an enjoyable experience it's almost unreal. The thing is the quality of the road upgrades is so high that when driving on the roads, you would never believe they were once in poor condition. |

Yeah, we all know what "currently ongoing" means in your book. Soon you people will complete the Benin-Ore road for the 3rd time in as many years. Glib talker that you are you talk about recent rehabilitation of Lagos-Ibadan road - by which you mean the rush patching that was done so GEJ could get to RCCG. Haba! Right after GEJ received his RCCG blessings Julius Berger publicly stated that they have no contracts for work on that road. BTW when the man said he travelled on good SW roads he was not talking about the on-today off-tomorrow GEJ patch-patch but top quality roads being built in the SW by ACN govs. Sincere 9gerian: |
Politics / Re: Transformation Of Nigerian Roads In The Last 2 Years by koruji(m): 10:14am On Apr 08, 2013 |
Please get your facts right. improving SW roads are due to ACN governors. GEJ is doing virtually nothing in the SW. If you need evidence travel on the premier SW roads that belong to the FG which the FG has not allowed state govts to take over. Lagos-Ibadan road is the prime example. The OP is well-known for propagating false GEJ achievements. But even after naming several roads none of which is in the SW he had throw in Apapa-Oshodi road - a road that has been shown even recently to be deplorable. Adura_ngba: I can attest to the fact that the roads are improving, I travelled South West over the weekend and I saw by myself. Dont let anyone fool you, things are working.

Education / Re: Good English: A Sign Of Education & Intelligence? by koruji(m): 2:06am On Apr 08, 2013 |
Intelligence cannot be measured based on a single subject. Someone might not learn English very well, but be a wizkid at math. Those who learn English better are simply more attuned to become "liguists", similarly those who learn math better are likely to understand the sciences better. Intelligence escapes measure, even the so-called IQ fails woefully. I like the following response to a question about Einstein's IQ: Einstein never took an IQ test (they are a fairly recent development) so no one knows what his IQ is. But the fact that he was brilliant in some fields doesn't mean he would have had a high IQ. There are people, called 'idiot savants' who are incredibly brilliant in one field, but hopeless at other things. For some reason, mathematics is often the field of special intensity - they can calculate numbers in their heads that you or I would have trouble entering into a computer, and solve them faster than the computer. They can tell you what day of the week any date in history was, or project it forward into the future. But they may not be able to figure out how to get across town on a bus. So IQ, no matter how high it is, doesn't always indicate brilliance. And your personal IQ can and does vary over your lifetime, so it isn't a set number. omicron: No we don't go to school to learn English but we do English as a subject too. And recall I said after the two people have been exposed to the same learning conditions. I used the illustration simply to suggest that 'intelligence' is the ability to learn...the more intelligent, the better and faster the learning. |

Look at it this way. GEJ has been goofing by setting up ex-militants to patrol our coastal waters. Tompolo is now a multi-billionaire based on those contracts. What do you think GEJ would do, after havin been openly called out? He is not strong enough to do what is right by withdrawing those ND contracts. Instead the man is "balancing" by sending money to the other regional groups - N2.4 billion for OPC. Find the story that said $100 million (about N1.6 billion) was allocated for oil exploration in the north - there is no oil exploration, it is another payoff to another group. GEJ is committing so many atrocities these days, and that is why 2015 is a do-or-die for him. fkaz: Awarding opc anti-oil pipe-linevandalism contract worth #2.4billion is crazy what is the job of nigeria navy 4 Likes |

Politics / Aregbesola Distributes 100 Security Patrol Vans by koruji(m): 2:59am On Apr 07, 2013 |
Just for the record - because the day will come when some people that shall remain nameless will roam Nigeria talking crap about how GEJ paid for "security" in Osun. These were the kind of steps Tinubu/Fashola took in Lagos to improve the terrible security situation there - the same time two other governors were busy looting their state treasury - and escaping in woman wrapper from the UK. Also, as a reminder, Aregbesola has leased a helicopter for aerial pursuit of those who attempt to breach Osun's security. Remember, these are FG agencies that the Government of the "State of Osun" is paying to equip. What is the FG doing with its huge yearly security allocations? Just saying. http://www.osundefender.org/?p=97154 2 Likes |
