And this is news?



Smh

naptu2:
I can't understand the people that are saying that this shouldn't be news. You mean a problem that has cost us human lives, that has injured many, that has destroyed shock absorbers and that is also costing tax payers a lot of money should not be news??

Maybe they didn't read the post and are just reacting to the headline.

naptu2:
Something really bad happened this morning. Thank God that it wasn't much worse.

I got off the bridge at the Ikoyi end and there was a man that was running in front of me. The man accidently stepped on one of the tyres above the manholes and he went down.

Thank God that he didn't fall in completely and thank God also that he wasn't terribly hurt. He was on the ground for a while until I and some other people helped him up.


People have been stealing the manhole covers at the Alexander Avenue Roundabout for a while. The covers are often replaced and then these criminals steal them again. So, right now, it seems that the government has gotten tired of replacing them and in order to prevent people from falling in, some people have placed tyres over the manholes to alert members of the public of the danger.

Yet those things are still a hazard.


The criminals do not steal the manhole covers on the bridge or the ones at the Lekki end of the bridge, but for some strange reason they keep stealing the covers at the Alexander Avenue Roundabout.

The residents association chairman says something that is inaudible.

Journalist: And these godfathers will not go away, so do you think it will not work?

(The chairman doesn’t answer, so the journalist asks another question.)


Journalist: What can the government do to help you?

Residents association chairman: What can the government do to help us is, now that they’ve banned them all over the place, why are we excluded? Why are we not included? They’ve been banned before years ago, when they gave policemen and they burnt their vehicles, why now that they purposely, I don’t know whether by mistake or omission, it was excluded.



Journalist: Do you have documentary evidence that it was excluded?

Residents association chairman: Look at our petition there. It’s there.


Journalist: Did they pay any levy to the CDA sir?

Another member of the residents association: Nobody wants any levy from them. Life is more important than levy.

Residents association chairman: Does the levy help the council?

Another member of the residents association: They are not even living in Ajao. They are not living in the estate. They come from Ejigbo, the road that was recently built by the governor, to enter Ajao Estate. It is from there that they enter, they rob, they escape from there.

Residents association chairman: And to make things worse, just few days ago when this order banning them was announced, they have been rushing to Ajao Estate again, looking for houses, looking for places to live with their okadas! So the place is already being crowded, because when they move from Apapa now, or they move from expressway (Mile 2),

99.863% of Nigerians will wish you well, but deep within them, they really don't mean it.

They'll pray you succeed, but when they see you succeeding to much, they'll start hating and wishing for your downfall.

Only a FOOL will say Burna lost to Kidjo due to his lack of education. He lost because Kidjo was simply better and deserving of the award.

This insult is too much on our African giant. We can’t take this.
Naomi Campbell will hear from us.

They were giving a speech not just walking and I don't see any red carpet.....stop trying to compare civil leaders with that military failure

anonimi:
One of the useless slogans that led them into crime and jail time.

Supersymetry:
Warri seam midwest (it can also be midEast if need be) because of political reasons, but all other ports eg PH,onne, calabar are all "South south east" going by your method it should be SSE because majority of ports there are SSE, with warri's location been disputable.

Ishilove:
It's glaring, honey.

Supersymetry:
If you must agree on the "speed of light" ,then you have to disagree on the component of speed and velocity (general relativity)
So you are directly saying that south south in nigeria is not geographically correct by admitting that it can be sse and ssw at the same time.
But the location of the ports is SSE by default.

Supersymetry:
At times i wonder why some people choose to create a truth from a lie.
SSE inspired the creation of south south don't make south south geographically correct, the correct one will be south south East, no matter how you do it East will appear into it eg south south "EAST".
