Our Engineering Firms need to work on making precast pavements and precast concrete slabs...they can finish a 1yr project in 3 months...at least have 25% precast cement slabs ready to go. They can also do it on site, while pouring concrete on some sections. With pure concrete or high cement concrete, there would be less chance of failure. Now we have it for parapet...you can complete the job in 1 day...they also have it now for decking...reduces the time needed to dry and solidify so you can continue building within days.

When we complain or when they complain...they say, why can't they just come home?
1. If they had the money, would they be sleeping in tents and begging for food or looking to share foods. The Govt should once a month provide free 100 vouchers for free flights, so folks can return home.
2. If they return to Nigeria, what would they return to? Some have told everything or borrowed funds that they had promised to returned. How do you return to hopelessness and more debt, so they just stick to staying abroad.
3. Returning to Nigeria without success brings with it another stigma of failure...so everyone just go with...we will just die here or die trying.

So, when people complain about difficulties abroad, show them grace and mercy...show empathy, learn from their mistakes and listen....that way, if you ever travel, your voice won't be drowned by those who think you should say nothing while in sorrow and tears.

A Nigerian man has shed light on the distressing living conditions faced by immigrants who were not granted asylum in Portugal. The man, whose identity remains undisclosed for safety reasons, took to social media to showcase the dire circumstances in which many find themselves.

The video, which has since gone viral, reveals cramped and unsanitary living spaces where several individuals are forced to reside.

Putin can govern for life...NATO and US do not have that privilege...so it's a waiting game. This is one of the benefits of autocracy. Every 10yrs, major economic shifts happen, so it's just a matter of time for citizens of these countries to start singing another tune...Russians are used to tightening belts especially after the Soviet Union collapse.

and CNG Buses are still coming...which would greatly reduce demand on petrol...in addition to increased supply of food produce, startup of our refineries...with Dangote Diesel and Aviation Fuel leading...which would further bring in more forex. This is why everyone wanted to win...this is the time to do amazing things for Nigeria...the opportunities were clearly there for the take.

femisplash:
By a stroke of genius, the President had ordered the CBN be in charge of receipts of oil revenues, a departure from decade-long misappropriation of crude oil sales. It therefore enhances CBN's ability to stabilize the currency. The insinuation that CBN borrows to sell to banks and BDCs should be disregarded.

2. Clearing of $7billion backlog has done the economy so much good. Investors no longer have the fear of their funds being trapped.

3. Oil production is on a steady increase. Although, a component volume of it had been sold in the future, however, the significant increase in production is offsetting the shortfalls. Moreover, oil price is up.

4. The market is gaining back investors' confidence. Following MPC meeting in January, investors reacted positively, total foreign portforlio recorded $2.3billion in febuary, purchases of naira assets stood at $1billion, oversea remitances went up greatly, FG bonds was oversubscribed, all these helped create more liquidity and increases market supply.

and because you can afford that....you think others should deal with the same. Some landlords work hard to erect their buildings. Tenants can negotiate payments and if landlord says no, they need to move out. You can't force yourself on someone. That is how we create entitled generations.

PointZerom:
I am a landlord in Oseni street Okota. I have told my tenants to be paying small small into my account or 6 months.

what a statement...a typical tenant with tenant mentality. Why not go and build your own house or move to a cheaper alternative? Your village is there too. Isn't the landlord paying his own bills...this is why fewer and fewer people are building and rent will continue to increase...you can delay but it will catch up to your children who with this mentality might remain tenants too.

PointZerom:
Any landlord expecting 100% payment will tell Nigerians if he paid for all the building materials used on that house up front.

I just shake my head because Nigerians believe in what they think even without facts or figures. If the Govt said no ransom was paid, it did not mean that there was no negotiation. It might be that they wanted drainage system or sort something that the Kaduna Govt decided to do...it does not mean money exchanged hands. Those spewing these without concrete proofs of how much was paid, from who and to who ...are enemies of the State. This is a National Security issue and even if ransom was paid, why would the Govt announce that when it can further increase insecurity by encouraging more kidnapping. We are our own enemy...we are the problem, and sadly we do not even see it.

NairaOcean:
At a university in Nigeria, two female students got into a fight over a boy inside a classroom, surprising everyone there.

It started when the boyfriend's girlfriend walked into the classroom. She saw her boyfriend talking to another girl. The girlfriend got angry and accused the other girl of being too friendly with her boyfriend.

Things got heated fast. The girlfriend slapped the girl sitting next to her boyfriend. The accused girl then turned to slap the boy before proceeding to engage the boy's girlfriend in a fight.

The girls stood face-to-face, slapping each other. It was chaotic, with desks getting pushed around and lots of noise.

You counter and then went back to my submission. ISIS was active Obama and when Trump won, he sided with Russia to defeat ISIS...some US folks even complained at the time that Trump was aligning with Russia but they can't openly support ISIS. Israel wanted Syria President gone because of his support for Iran backed Hezbollah in Syria...so is it a coincident that now ISIS chooses to attack Russia and claim responsibility so it won't be blamed on US or UK or France which ever...they are all one and the same...all these superpowers still want to control the World and are working together with US at the helm.

I will wait for US Govt to come out and condemn ISIS attack. No doubt thus is not the work of some rogue ISIS militia inside Russia in my opinion

LeopardX:
The issue in Syria is more complicated than you think. Yes Russia wanted Al-Assad to remain in power and both US and ISIS wanted him gone. But US and ISIS both had different objectives in the war.

For example, the US have no problem with the Taliban running Afghanistan, but ISIS still show themselves launching terror attacks every now and then.

Will you then say that US is behind ISIS activities in Afghanistan.

That said, I suspect the evil hands of France in this matter. I also believe the US knows about it (is there anything they don't even know?) and chose to keep mum for unknown reasons.

But all these are just conjectures. Global politics ya werey gan.

I know we have low information Nairalanders

Russia supported Syria to eliminate ISIS that wanted to remove Syria President.

US/UK were bent on removing the Syrian so ISIS seems to be a creating of the West or were receiving some support in my opinion. You can research it yourself.

Seems like Ukraine is clearly loosing the war and this is an angle to slow Russia's momentum by creating a distraction....now Russia Muslim communities at peace in Russia could become a target now. I won't rule out the West involvement here even without direct evidence.

You are comparing apples and oranges...Sadly you have others like you, tribalistic, who also liked your nonsense.

We are at war with Boko Haram...we kill them, they kill us, they kill Borno residents too...they are victims. We are not at war with Niger Delta other than curbing illegal oil bunkering activities. They slaughtered our soldiers, removing their heads and hearts.

You are clearly soulless...if you think the 2 situations are the same. May you find mercy so same won't be your portion...Amen

The problem of corruption in Nigeria is that it is already part of the fabric of the nation. Even if the President is corrupt free, he cannot control what the Legislative Branch will do...and they work at the pleasure of the Govs and dole out the funds. If he tries to fight the legislative branch, nothing will be passed. So, there you have it...and so we can just pray for mercy, cos it is just so so bad.

Bianca Ojukwu was the cynosure of all eyes as she stepped into the ICC venue of the 2nd anniversary celebrations of Prof Charles Chukwuma Soludo as the governor of the APGA led government of Anambra State.

The former Ambassador to the Kingdom of Spain, who is also a principal member of the Board of Trustees of APGA, and the wife of late Igbo Leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, who was the pioneer National Leader of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) looked radiant in an all pink outfit as she greeted guests at the ceremony.

The event offered the Governor Charles Soludo, an opportunity to present his scorecard to the citizens of the state and to also reel out other areas of achievements which his administration has recorded in the past 24 months.
Earlier in a homily, the Catholic Bishop of Awka Diocese, Most Rev Paulinus Ezeokafor, while  reflecting on the 2 years of the governor in office, commended him for finding it worthy to conduct a thanksgiving service to mark the occasion.

The ceremony was also witnessed by dignitaries such as the former secretary general of the commonwealth, Chief Emeka Anyaoku, Governor Alex Otti of Abia State, Former Governor of Anambra State, Chris Ngige, Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Alfred Achebe, Chairman of Chrome Oil, Chief Emeka Offor and others.

The event also marked the 2nd year anniversary of what has been famously dubbed the ‘Valedictory’ or ‘Send Forth’ Slap, which was dished out by Bianca Ojukwu to Ebelechukwu Obiano , wife of the outgoing governor of Anambra state when the latter viciously accosted her at the state event.
Former Governor Obiano and his wife were conspicuously absent at the 2nd Year Anniversary ceremony.

They keep leaking all the memos...God help us

Gov Otti is a product of Lagos. What you see is a man that lived in Lagos and under governance and bringing the same to the South East. Soludo is a Lagos product. Do not be fooled..God cannot be mocked. Gov. Otti did not live all his life in Abia. Google or FactCheck me Lol.

Otti earned an MBA degree from the University of Lagos in 1994.

Thereafter he moved to the then Nigerian Intercontinental Merchant Bank Ltd. While at Intercontinental Bank, he worked both in the treasury and financial services unit as well as the corporate banking division. In 1992, he joined Societe Bancaire Nigeria Limited (Merchant Bankers), a subsidiary of Banque SBA Paris where he rose to the position of a senior manager. He moved on to the United Bank for Africa (UBA)[9] as the principal manager overseeing the bank’s corporate banking sector for the entire South Division with the responsibility of growing the oil and gas business for the bank. In May 2001, he joined First Bank of Nigeria, PLC as assistant general manager in with the sole responsibility of growing the Energy Sector for the bank....

All in All, the Success in Aba, Abia is a Nigeria Success Story...so we celebrate.

This is one of the things that make America special. Parents will give Teachers gift during Teachers' week. The Soldiers will be welcomed with several gifts and freebies on arrival at the airport by so many companies. People volunteer in their communities to strengthen the needs. Parents volunteer in schools and raise funds for trips and so on. Nigeria ...we are all about me me me me me. That is why its hard to grow as a people or as a nation. Touch a life and be the difference. I am inspired to give back with IDAGBA Foundation, because in America, even people that don't know you will provide legacy scholarships to fund your education. God Bless USA, God Bless Nigeria too...but we need to be better. So many of these on YouTube you cant watch it all or even on GoFundMe.

The Red Wedding comes to mind.

Their representative should be invited and buttered like toast bread with promises of amnesty, scholarships and sponsorships. In fact, promise to throw an event to celebrate the dawn of peace.

But every bandit in the gang must be present at the ceremony to receive their share of the dividends of the peace treaty.

Then have them surrounded and gunned down at the ceremony.

Yes I would have made the same argument. Go and watch AriseNews again and the foreign expert that came on at that time to educate your Rufai. Tinubu cannot be seen as going against the majority, and yes sanctions were needed at that time. Of course, they didn't expect the countries to announce pull out from Ecowas. That was a master strategy by those countries, so ECOWAS had to re-evaluate. This is democracy in action. When you want leaders to get it right, you elect messiah and get nonsense. I would rather some make decision, evaluate, and reverse if needed. Not all decisions can be left to ...perfection. I know most of you here have never led anything...it shows.

YourKarma:
Stop giving excuses for ineptitude, you're not talking to kids here. When northern elders kicked against the sanctions, didn't tinubu try to prove stubborn and went ahead with it?

Isn't tinubu the current ECOWAS president?

Now the useless sanctions has come to bite him in the ass, you're trying to give excuses for him and trying to use Ukraine to justify this bullshit. Would you have given this silly rebuttal if tinubu or obi was your president?

Sit down, my friend

Like I said before...low information people we are...now let me help you

If we were paying say $10 billion per year for subsidy, announcing the removal has cut importation...and devaluation of forex means it might look like we are paying the same amount in Naira, but we are actually paying 1/3 and with the cuts in importation, we are using a whole lot less in GDP...we were headed to a level where we wouldn't be able to have capital expenditure. 2024 budget reverses that. You just insult, but like most low information or low IQ, you cannot understand or argue on the merits.
