They need your vehicle license plate which is linked to an address. There's no reason to chase people when you can clearly identify where they reside as per an electronic database.

When you walk into most government offices in Nigeria they insist on using pen and paper - for wetin? What year is this?

ibrutex:
The way things is going Indian will soon overthrow China and Nigeria in producing fake product

It has already happened. They produce a lot of fake drugs and substandard electronics.

Shouldn't you ensure you have 24 hours of electricity before you go down that path? How do you plan on running a "smart city" when you have several power cuts every day?

Deal with the basics first.

If you constitute nuisances in another state, you will be sent back to your state. Simple as ABC.

How? Which agency has the capacity to do that in a country that struggles to maintain territorial integrity?

atedawas:
Useless country

Because of a private airline doing promo you call the entire country useless?

How did lesbians end up in the same bracket as yahoo boys?

And how do some of you have the nerve to look down on prostitutes when most of you worship money?

GamalNasser:
Another horrible mistake , even Chinese airlines avoid Chinese commercial planes , we all saw the commercial disasters the Russian Sukhoi super jet was , you see when it comes to commercial jets leave it for the french na d north Americans

You haven't been paying attention. Boeing planes have had a lot of problems that have cost lives. They have then tried to cover up their incompetence by blaming the pilots.

Airbus have had their issues too.

omoredia:
Nigerians have turn to political, educational and economic refugees overnight. Sad

It isn't overnight, this has been the state of affairs for at least 50 years.

general111:
what about those who became poor after having five kids?

You shouldn't have five children in the first place. Every child you have is essentially a mortgage. One that most can ill afford, financially or with regards to time.

CilicMarin:
Why can't they go to Anambra State and do their useless rally?

This is purely IPOB/Igbo affairs, so why Lagos?

Is it only Yorubas who can campaign in Lagos?

general111:
Its not owk, but the state of things in the country has permitted it

Why did the state of things in the country not stop these animals from having children that they cannot take care of properly?

dryakson:
Military government is far better than some democratic government which oppress the masses

Military governments don't oppress the masses?

Professional liars. All of them. Including Obi.

OgaDeyVex:
Praise Da Living God, Amen

Oga Way Dey Vex Before, Has Calm Down Now

Surely a living god would stop the tree from falling?

Natural2Heal:
Really? I doubt a vice chancellor of a university can be a punter. Sports betting is for the poor and low lifers

Clearly you have never been to Las Vegas.

Anybody can become a gambling addict.

EKONGKING:
Nigerians really don't know what is happening in the country, it has to take a German news service to point out flooding and scale of it , while politicians , news media look the other way .

That was my first thought. Why are we having to rely on a German news agency to tell us about our own country?

delzbaba:
its only rational reasoning that when you buy an expensive car to show off, then forget about the future maintenance cost you will shed hot tears, the average whiteman will go for his ford or truck ,, while my naija people will get there and buy benz.

Ford na trash.

Buy Korean or Japanese if you want minimal fuss.

Fool.

Flying is also important! MAybe not as critical as the petroleum sector, but it's also very important and serves a vital purpose to the economy.

Developing a country doesnt mean you have to abandon some sectors and focus only on sectors which you think are important. All sectors can and should be carried along.

Abandon? No. But prioritize which seems to be a problem for Nigerians in general. People get the governments they deserve.

obailala:
Good thing you're not in leadership then!

Having a national carrier isnt a waste of time; it serves an important purpose and can boost the economy.

Saying it's useless on the premise that it will not be managed properly is just laughable; it's almost like saying Nigerian govt should consider building new refineries because they wouldnt be managed properly when built.

You should rather be clamouring for the management to be strictly concessioned to the private sector for efficient management instead of throwing out the baby with the bath water.

Terrible comparison.

Most Nigerians don't have the means to fly but everyone needs fuel. A refinery would have a wider, stronger effect on the economy than a national carrier.

abumeinben:
I believe the free meter rollouts made this possible. I know Ikeja disco will claim about 20% of the revenue.

Which free meter? The government said the meters are free, the thieving DISCOs demanded money and then delayed providing said meters.

obailala:
Just Your Opinion!.... It's probably a waste of time and resources only to those who elevate their hatred against the sitting govt above national interest.

To everyone who understands basic economics, the importance of a robust and functional air transport system cannot be overemphasised. A national carrier will be a blessing to Nigeria if it comes to reality and if it's managed properly.

A functional air transport system is about management of infrastructure, not a national carrier. Nigerian governments have shown an inability to manage an airline or even be silent partners in a national carrier. This is a waste of time and energy for a country with far more rudimentary challenges.

obailala:
There is nothing wrong with Nigeria having a national airline, absolutely nothing wrong with that!

It's a waste of time and resources.

obailala:
Not sure I understand the relationship between what you just said and the topic of discussion. Solution to what exactly?

Nigeria plans to bring in Ethiopian Air management to manage the proposed Nigeria Air. You say it isnt the solution, that we should "build infrastructure if we want an airline"?

A national airline carrier is no solution to whatever problems Nigeria has with its aviation industry.

obailala:
Anything that would make Nigeria have a functional airline and national carrier is a welcome development; anything that would make NIGERIA AIR (or whatever they choose to call it) work efficiently is very much welcome.

Only people battling with inferiority complex would think it's shameful for the Nigeria to partner with the management of the most successful airline in Africa.

This isn't a solution. If Nigeria wants airlines then build and maintain better infrastructure.

Why would anyone invest in this after the Virgin Nigeria mess?

Ethiopian Airlines is a good airline but I'm sure even they will get frustrated with the mess that Nigeria continues to make of aviation.

It was two systems once they were allowed to instill Shariah law in the north.

You have been asleep.

I don't understand why people like cow skin.

CSTRR:
Unfortunately, these people are affecting me with their brainlessness.

Once I Japa, nothing concern me with Nigeria again.

If dey like,they should keep voting on ancient tribal divisions, I will cheer them from oversees and watch them on CNN.

Japa or not you will still be handicapped by Nigeria's problems and Nigeria's bad image.

Unless you have another passport and even then the bad image of Africa will come back to smack you in the face.

They placed limits on foreign transactions a long time ago to the point where it was useless for anything of note.

This is what happens when you allow useless people to run your country and economy.

But keep allowing tribalism to guide you. Keep allowing religion to distract you.

Una well done.

QuotaSystem:
The man was very clear and emphatic about it.

As unpalatable as they sound, most of his points were true.

None of his points were true. He's projecting as is the norm of northern clerics.

No northern xtian has been stopped from opening a church in the south.
