Simple deploy drones and collect intelligence...how do you know they are supplying bandits and if you know, why ain't they arrested? Seems we just have the definition of incompetence here.
They should provide tricycle with GPS so they can track their movement..but stopping transportation will affect commerce. We know some Nigerians don't mind feeding their enemies as long as they make money..last last they will become victims too.
I remember the days of charcoal...omo, I used to hate dinner...those charcoal fire will make holes in your shirt..you have to blow blow blow and keep on blowing till the food is completely cooked. We had so much of that...getting all the coals to turn red...na the major problem. Anyone complaining now probably did not experience that growing up..o serious. That was even better than my parents walking miles to gather wood, crossing rivers that flood so they can cook at home. People have suffered o in their lifetime.
CBN will manage floats daily...how will that restore confidence in investors...when that might take years to get to a uniform Forex market. It is best to suffer now magally...then begin to enjoy...the President has 4yrs...if the 1st year is terrible and stabilizes by Year 2....Year 3 and 4 will be amazing and that is how to govern. I hate abandoned projects ...set goals you can complete within your terms and create templates for others...but don't start something and force the person taking over to complete them including bad contracts.
It is commendable to use concrete pavement, but the base sand looks like clay to me. That will shift and crack the concrete. This is why Umahi banged about sharp sand and wanted trucks to ride on it before paving. That will solidify the base sand and prevent shifts and cracks. I like the PVC pipes Obaseki is using for drainage. It's a little too late; all these might become abandoned, uncompleted projects.

My fellow teacher, I salute you...Keep up the spirit and do it well. There are plenty of rewards...give the students hope, don't look down on any of them...speak light and power into them.
what I don't understand is why we still drive recklessly...only someone alive makes it to final destination...when you see a truck, slow down and wait for a good time to pass...or don't pass at all. Sleeping Kills
matify83: Is there no way these containers can be secured firmly on trucks without them falling off?
What happened to the laudable ideas of siting inland dry ports (IDP) and linking them via rail lines from Apapa port?
There was one proposed for Erunmu - Ibadan that time. Don't know if it kicked off or is functional.
The continued presence of these trailers on our roads will continue to constitute a risk and hazard to all road users.
That is one of the problems I highlighted to someone...as it is...well let them deal with it and let the people hold the Govs responsible. They should use part of their security votes. Govs have chosen to become useless blaming the Feds for everything. They could have created intelligence network, and funded technology like drones to support Federal Police...and train civilians. Everything...is Fed Fed Fed...where is their control system and control units to safeguard their states.
Paraman: Will the states be able to fund their police force?
If a trailer loses control and kill many people, the people will blame the Govt. Why would they keep putting tables, umbrellas and so on on the main streets? Why cant we act like normal people...you can still hawk your stuff without blocking the streets.
robosky02: FIFA Ranking: Nigeria ahead of Ivory Coast, Haaland’s Norway after biggest move in 11 years
Nigeria has moved 14 places in the latest FIFA Ranking, sitting well ahead of AFCON champions Cote d'Ivoire, and Erling Haaland's Norway.
Nigeria’s Super Eagles are flying high after being officially ranked as the third-best team in Africa in the recently released FIFA World Ranking.
Nigeria soars in FIFA Ranking According to the latest release by FIFA, the Super Eagles are now ranked 28th in the world following the run in Cote d’Ivoire.
Nigeria finished runners-up after a painful 2-1 defeat to host nation Cote d’Ivoire in a widely watched final last Sunday.
But despite the heartbreak, the Jose Peseiro-led young side earned plenty of admirers as they soared through the tournament before missing out narrowly on a fourth title.
Nigeria’s move from 42nd in the world to 28th is the highest move for the Super Eagles in 11 years, with the team matching the May 9, 2013 position.
The Super Eagles are now ranked behind Morocco, who moved one spot to 12th and Senegal, who are ranked 17th after moving three places.
Elsewhere on the ranking Nigeria is now ahead of Erling Haaland’s Norway, ranked 46th in the world, and African champions, Cote d’Ivoire, who moved 10 places to 39th.
So, PDP Govs will select people that future APC Govs will use lol... Dey play dey play. Every 4-8 years, we will recruit, fire, and change police officers. Once it is given that the party will switch, you can expect an increase in disruption. I do not see this being a great idea at all. We cant even have peaceful elections.
BALLOSKI: Every state should be given power to select people from their state to join the police and be trained and never to be moved out of their state. They get paid by the state, but should not be allowed to take orders from the state. I don't know how we can do that.
You will know that she is at peace with him...respects him, sees him as Daddy listens to him, and does not embarrass him outside...if anything, she does what elevates him...unlike our "woke" women. They think they know it all...las las they remain single and single mothers. I am not referring to those who marry useless guys...some just won't allow a man to lead or be led. Create peace, and JOY cometh in the morning.
Senator Ned Nwoko, known for his opulent lifestyle and high-profile relationships, spared no expense in marking this Valentine's Day with an extraordinary gift for his wife, Regina Daniels.

In a series of posts, she expressed her excitement and gratitude for the luxurious surprise.
The gift, a Lexus Bulletproof SUV, is not only a symbol of the couple's enduring love but also a testament to Nwoko's penchant for extravagance. The sleek and secure vehicle is equipped with top-of-the-line safety features, reflecting the senator's commitment to ensuring his wife's well-being.

Many businesses have replaced it with paper or reusable plastic containers. Styrofoam is banned in Colorado, Maine, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, and Washington, D.C. New Jersey's was the most recent to be implemented, as its ban took effect on May 4, 2022.
For those who are ignorant and won't do simple research online, this is not new to Nigeria. The rate of cancer is alarming.
You want cancer and more health issues...then keep using it. Educate yourself and you will see why it is not used in the US anymore in some states too.
State Police for Govs by Govs...dey play dey play...in this Nigeria. Just imagine more guns on the street...Special Armed Units supplementing the National Police makes more sense.
There is WIKE, and then there is EVERYONE else. May God bless this man. He is never tired...from Rivers to FCT. Can we make him Minister of Power and remove the one afraid to do interviews?
CapitalLens: In continuation of his tour of construction projects in the FCT, FCT Minister, Barrister Nyesom Wike on Wednesday 14th February 2024, visited the following project sites: 1. Construction of the Southern Parkway from the National Christian Center to Ring Road 1
2. Provision of Engineering Infrastructure to Guzape Lot II
3 Provisiion of Roads and Engineering Infrastructure to the New Layout and the Diplomatic area in Guzape
4. Full Scope Development of Arterial Road N20 from Northern Parkway to ONEX with spurs.
Some of our ignorant folks like to attend crowd events like this when they japa. When gangs are looking for someone to retaliate against...they come to events like this...when a husband is looking for the wife who remarried and took half his assets, he comes to an event like this. Some want to leave the world by doing something extraordinary...if you love yourself when you japa, don't attend stuff like this. We don't want to see gofundme pages. You have been warned.
While this is good news, that it took them a while is scary. We know these guns were coming from somewhere. They must have started putting drones to good use and following all traffic to nowhere.
How was she raised? What was she doing when she started dating a man with questionable income? Did she benefit and ignore the signs? What did she do when the daughter was being supposedly abused and battered? Seems like its a little too late and she has to answer to God about what she did or fail to do. Once upon a time, parents used to disown children that mingle with unquestionable characters that will destroy the names of the family...not anymore...they benefit and ignore the signs...then pray to God when problems arise....hmm

They are considered foreign entities, so they have to pay in dollars. That is why what they owe must be in dollars. States need to do the same to those owing land use charge...they will rake in more money if posted in alphabetical order or based on names attached to locations.
Parydelegate: Will dy pay the equivalent in naira at cbn rates? Or they have to pay in dollars
The release of these pictures if it is real is unfortunate. Crime scene pictures are not meant to be released to the public. The one about Kobe Bryant was a major issue that led to lawsuits. I wonder if they think this is OK because they are Nigerians. The Nigerian Govt must respond forcefully to this and protect the interest of the families involved.
Another reason to increase taxes and real Estates land use charge on the Rich...this is much..hospital, dental clinic...maybe he was planning to offer free health care cos I just don't get it..God dey
AsomArchitectNG: The late access bank CEO Herbert Wigwe's alleged Giagantic mansion on the queens drive Ikoyi Lagos. He just moved into the mansion few weeks ago!!! May His soul continue to RIP
See AriseNews owner and Ogy Okpe with Dangote plus Peter Obi...connect all the dots abi we should believe all of them showed up coincidentally...Emefiele would have been there too If not that he don enter one chance. May His soul rest in peace.
Shikini: Yesterday, with a heavy heart, I paid a condolence visit to the beloved families of my very dear friends, Herbert Wigwe and Abimbola Ogunbajo, whose deaths continue to break my heart and those of many in the nation.
I expressed my deepest sympathies to the Wigwe and Ogunbajo families over this colossal loss. Herbert and I have remained very close friends over the years and I cherish the times, ideas, and moments we shared.
His death remains a terrible sore in my heart, especially when I consider his immense contributions to our national development, and his plans to do more for the nation in the very critical areas of development. He was a man who remained committed to the advancement of the nation and the progress of the people especially the youth.
As we mourn his very painful death, we are comforted by the enduring legacies he left behind, the lives he positively touched both within and outside Nigeria, and the cherished memories of his kindness, simplicity, and love for humanity. May God Almighty grant eternal rest to Herbert, his wife, and son; to Abimbola Ogunbajo, and all those who died in the plane crash.
May God comfort their families, and indeed all of us who mourn, and give us the fortitude to bear this sad and irreplaceable loss.
Takes a lot of courage...and guts. I salute him contrary to most opinions here. Most men would just suffer in silence...and some will do the worse, try to kill her. He did well...let the new man know the kind of person he is getting married to. She is a USER. We are here blaming the victim. She should calculate all his expenses and return all his funds... that should be the solution to start with. You use people and then wonder why the calamities on the children and children's children. Pain is a great cry to God....the revenge can be in multiple folds. We cannot stop doing good...but we must expose the worst amongst us.
GistMedia0: A woman ditches her sponsor for a new love, but her ex storms the church during the televised wedding, shouting, "Oga pastor, I took her from the village, I trained her, it will not happen!" Ushers quickly intervene, halting the vows. Shocked viewers left wondering what's next.
If you don't have a finder app on it...post a publication and offer reward...pray someone notices and bring it back. Check the company's website to see if there are other ways to track it with your number. Good luck
Nitah1: Is there any way I can get it back? Please someone should help me.
Bad News for our lawyers...they will set up their own law firms in Nigeria, and use their own people to sign multi-national contracts with Nigeria.
That UK Kemi is bad news for Nigeria...but I don't feel bad for our lawyers, they are part of the problem and most of them have gotten rich via corruption and corrupt practices...colluding against the interests of the nation.
No I didn't reach the article well and I am more hopeful than you. I didn't go to school at all...I barely do not know how to respond to you. Eyin King of Comprehension Skills
Wotowotoman: Guy, you read the article and reached a hopeless conclusion. Even a primary school student cannot have such poor comprehension skills. You go school at all?
in some parts of the US, the Police Dept can spend the proceeds of a crime if you can't prove otherwise its legit money ...for Police Use lol. They barely get audited so they technically share it...google is your friend
NairaOcean: Four Nigerian policemen stationed at a checkpoint along the Jalingo-Yola highway have garnered widespread praise for their integrity after they turned down a staggering N8 million bribe offered by arrested criminals. The officers were approached by individuals attempting to secure their release by offering a substantial sum.
Despite facing financial hardships, the policemen remained steadfast in their commitment to upholding the law and refused the bribe. Their principled stand against corruption has sparked admiration from citizens across the nation.
The incident serves as a beacon of hope in the ongoing battle against corruption within law enforcement agencies in Nigeria, highlighting the importance of integrity and ethical conduct among public servants. The authorities have commended the officers for their exemplary behavior and pledged to reward them for their integrity.
The same Craneberg Construction is floating around as being responsible for building Herbert's new house that was completed just 2 weeks ago. It is well...this life....
MasterTeeUSA: Unsavory details have continue to unfold following the raid by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on the Epe and Ikoyi, Lagos homes of former Laģos Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode on Tuesday morning.
The anti-graft agency’s operatives had stormed the Epe country home of Ambode but were prevented from gaining entry by a horde of youth.
In a statement by his media aide, Habib Aruna, the former governor, who is out of the country, said that the EFCC operatives’ visit to his houses was without any prior notice.
According to the statement, “These searches were carried out extensively and the operatives left without any incident. The former governor reiterates that the EFCC has till date not had any direct communication with him on any subject matter whatsoever and if or when it occurs, he is ready and willing to respond.”
Reacting, Tony Orilade, spokesman of the EFCC, said the search on the house was not a raid, but part of an ongoing investigation which is “in line with (the EFCC’s) mandate and the rule of law.”
Orilade further said, “We need to state for the records that the EFCC did not raid Ambode’s house. It is instructive that his administration, like other former governors, is under investigation since they no longer constitutionally enjoy immunity against prosecution.”
As a tradition, the commission, Orilade stated, does not carry out an investigation on the pages of the newspapers or through the media; “Our operations are always covert until at a time when we file charges in court. Therefore, the attempt to cast the commission in a bad light is unacceptable as the EFCC will never engage in an illegal act. We remain committed to the war against corruption.”
However, EFCC sources have claimed that Ambode has come under the scrutiny of the anti-graft agency for alleged financial malfeasances during his tenure as governor of Lagos State between 2015 and 2019.
Apart from the multi-billion dollar Visionscape deal which many described as greatest injustice to the Lagos economy, there are allegations that the former governor awarded some contracts that did not go through due process thus the investigation by the anti-graft agency.
EFCC sources alleged that a year into Ambode’s administration, a particular company, Craneburg Construction, established in 2016, and purportedly owned by Ambode’s bosom friend, Herbert Wigwe, the GMD/CEO, Access Bank Plc, without previous construction experience, reportedly awarded a $300million deal for road projects around select areas of the state particularly the former Governor’s Epe constituency.
A source within the EFCC said Ambode, who has decided to stay put in London since his exit as Lagos governor in May, is being investigated over this contract deal.
