Is it Governor T. A Orji of Abia State or another TA Orji? In Cheif Sweetus Oyoyo's words, I give up |
Sometime last year this same Governor's convoy was involved in a ghastly auto accident, his ADC died while he sustained injuries. Now this year, another accident same Governor's convoy different victim-Prof Iyayi . Now my question is, is this concincidence or some systemic recklessness of Governor Idris Wada's convoy? How is it that the same leaders 'we' voted Reports have it that the British prime minister goes to work with minimal entourage, sometimes even joins the train. The Norwegian prime minister sometime ago in order to feel the pulse of the 'ordinary' citizen had to resort to taxi driving. Are our leaders more exposed than these 2 mentioned leaders? is our country more developed? Well, this incident made news because an 'influential academic' was involved but many other 'non-influential' citizens have been killed from such official highhandedness and recklessness but they didnt make news. RIP Prof Iyayi |

With a car no doubt he will be better off, but considering his current financial state as a beginner, he needs to stabilise first and get to know the city well. Him suppose know say that on Fridays from 12-2pm, you nor fit drive pass sheraton side (mosque tins), by 4p,n to go through barnex to area 11 na die (hold up things) etc. Him suppose know say, if u no wear sit belt for Abj and FRSC/VIO catch am, na serious gobe be that. ![]() |

freshdew: With ur income level,look for a house in Maraba. I stay in Asokoro. It really expensive here with all the state govts lodge here and state governors building dia personal houses all around here,its only going to be more expensive. My 2 u Op-go 2 Maraba-stay well.^^Oh please shut that trap you call a mouth. You think because you @ Op, Abuja is not as difficult as most people make it seem. In places like Dutse, Bwari you can get self contained apartments (with or without water) with circa 200k per annum. Transportation might eat deep into your pocket but once you get familiar with the environment you will know the best routes to take. If deep within you you are convinced and with God on your side, please come the sky is your limit. Its a beautiful place to be the peace of mind is unrivalled in this country. I give thumbs up to those that live in Lagos!!! |
01mcfadden: Is there no conference for people using sport bicycle?This got me laughing real hard. |
*dhtml:Well, you might be lucky it won't happen to you. My own experience is as narrated below; I booked for an Aero Saturday 9th, 10:10am flight from Owerri to Abuja, on Friday evening I got a message as follows: Dear Esteemed Customer, This is to inform you that our flight AJ347 from Owerri to Abuja on the 9th of November, 2013 has been rescheduled to 12:10HRS due to operational reasons. However, if you are already booked on the 12:10HRS please disregard. Check in starts two hours before and closes forty minutes before departure. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. For enquiries, please call: 01-6284140 or email tickethelpdesk@acn.aero Initially, I took it as nothing, as I had some more time to spend with my family. When I eventually got to the airport, we were told our plane was still in Lagos and this was few mins before 12:10. Eventually, our plane got to Owerri from Lagos around 12:30 and we boarded by 12:55. So altogether we about 3 hours delay, The pilot later apologised and said that the delay was due to an NCAA inspection in Lagos but even at that, our landing in Abuja wasn't exactly funny, I am not sure why, but the plane was seriously shaking (passengers were all complaining). |
Passengers aboard an Aero Contractor Boeing 737 plane scheduled for a trip to from Abuja to Lagos were left stranded inside the aircraft for several hours, with airline officials nowhere in sight to offer any explanation, SaharaReporters has learnt from a source who was one of the abandoned passengers. “It was as if the Aero Contractors turned us into prisoners of war,” said the passenger, adding that many passengers were terrified as the plane sat on the tarmac of Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport in Abuja for several hours, with passengers locked up inside. Our source disclosed that Flight AJ132 from Abuja to Lagos was supposed to take off at 8 p.m., but was delayed until midnight. Then, once passengers boarded, they were left inside the aircraft until 3 a.m. on Saturday. He added that the pilots and the crew left the aircraft with the passengers without giving any explanation. A source at the airline said it was a case of “Aircraft On Ground”, a term used to depict seriousness of engine trouble that causes an aircraft to be grounded. “I think this kind of thing can only happen in Nigeria where customers are treated by an airline as if they were just rats trapped inside a plane, and the pilots and crew members disappear just like that.” SaharaReporters could not reach a line for Aero Contractors to obtain an official response to the incident. Several passengers booked on other Aero’s flights suffered similar delays at airports around Nigeria www.saharaareporters.com http:///lqRdByD0Zw |
You did wonderfully well and the Good Lord will bless you beyond your expectation. I am sure your mind is very much at ease now unlike the torment you would have gone through if your had 'eaten' the money. 780K might be a big deal but its not equal to the peace of mind you now enjoy knowing that you did the right thing, that you saved somebody from HBP. This world is a very small place, you can never tell where you will meet the owner of the money/bank manager in future. With this feat, maybe there is still hope in Nigeria. By the way where are those who said he should flex the money, hope you guys can hug the closest live transformer. Weldon Op, as you have brought smiles to somebody's face by this act, may smile, joy and laughter never depart you and your household...amen Mods, I hereby raise the motion that this thread be moved to the front page. Omg, is this really true? FTC?? This is to sincerely thank mtn for making sure that I had internet access on my nokia 3310, my mum for not sending me on errand , nepa for not bringing light which made me stay awake to achieve this feat and finally my Pastor who told us that this week we would achieve the impossible. Ndewonu |
I have always been of the opinion that Musilm way of burial is the best template to use. When most families cry at the death of their loved ones, it will surprise you to know that its isn't the loss per say that's making them cry but the anticipated expenses they will incur. Recently, I travelled to my village 11 months after my last visit only for my mum to inform me that one of our kinsmen was being buried. This man died around October last year and he was buried this November. I was shocked and asked my mum why they had to keep him this long , she replied that the family(widow and children who are just barely feeding) were trying to raise money for the burial. They had to sell virtually every land the man had in order to buy cows for the village people and other associated expenses (including mortuaary cost for 13 months). This man was a palm wine taper and of course had no investments for the children except the inherited lands, which have just be sold to bury him. Now tell me after the burial and jamboree how will the family cope? School fees, feeding etc. Why I had to narrate this long true life story is to further butress the fact that this culture should be abolished as it has no positive effect (especially in Igbo land (mind you I am Igbo too). If somebody dies 2 things should happen. 1 Bury him like the muslims or 2. Cremate him. Thanks |
Christianos: This is one of the absurdities that we have come to accept as normal in Nigeria. I see no reason why elected Governors will shuttle across the country's airspace on selfish political campaigns, abandoning their primary responsibility/obligation to the poor masses who elected them. BTW, does anyone have an idea of what the job-description of a Nigerian Governor looks like?God bless you for this observation. Infact take one bottle of your brand on my head. In recent months, these governors are having one meeting or the other at different locations. Most nigerians have taken sides with or against them but nobody seems to care about the implications of their frequent out of station trips. The private jets they use, the hotel or guest houses, the ground transport, the security personnels attached to them. I am sure its the tax payer of their respective states that foot the bills. How does their political future affect the ordinary village woman in their states. These governors have left the reason why they were voted (or rigged) into power which is provision of basic infrastructure and leadership for their states and are busy gallavanting the whole country at public expense. Now when was the last time any of them commissioned projects in their states? In saner climes one caan quickly say that their deputies hold the steering of the states machinery why their principals are busy gallavanting, but here in Nigeria, we all know that the deputies are glorified commissioners and as such can't do anything meaningful without recourse to their 'ogas at the top'. The result of this is that these states have been held hostage and governance put on hold. Btw I am also very much interested in the job description of a governor too. |
Mr Aboki: I cant believe you beat me to this joke..I tell ya, good to know we think alike...lolzz I refuse to imagine the air crowded with flying cars in Lagos, portharcourt or Aba and some spoiling/dropping off. Scary!! Just to satisfy my curiosity, who regulates these flying cars?, FRSC/VIO or FAAN/NCAA? Or both? |
The rate at which fake spare parts flood our markets, I m so scared oo. Normally when driving and your car spoils it stops, but if this one spoils while in the air nko? I don't want to see objects dropping from our skies ooo. |
akpan aniefiok: The situation of things in this country is getting out of hands,we are no longer optimistics of going to school,even somebody that is uneducated can boast of financial status to our graduates.just imagine one of the chairman of ASUU was interviewed ön Ait and this was what he said during his replied."we want the best for our students,we don't want our students to leave Nigeria to go and study in Ghana,that even the ghana that they are trooping into heard gone on strike for more than to years".for christ sake , how do they want nigeria educational sector to be changed over night,Is he trying to say that untill we do like ghana did that they would be no improvement on our's?.can't they understand that nigeria is still a developing nation?sometimes i wonder why we even got our independent so early?Lord have Mercy!! |
jassie: .May your bigoted brain perpetually be stunted. Instead of you to be objective, you come in here throwing tribalistic tantrum. Condemn what is bad and applaud what is good, not become tribalistc. What has Igbo got to do with T. Oeji's non-perfomance, is Chime not Igbo, who is crucifying him? If you have nothing to say just shut your mouth (keyboard). Lastly, its always better to keep quiet and be thought a f000l than talk (type) and erase all elements of doubts. |
This man's cluelessness has been unprecedented in human history. A state that owes its workers several months salary, (Ask Abia poly staff, primary school teachers, Local government staff, nurses aand health workers) the roads in Aba are still a mess. From Osisioma to Ekeakpara isn't motorable, infact people pass through Geometrics road to get into the Ekeakpara side. Is it Ngwa road, is Faulks road through Ariaria (to mention just a few). Sam Mbakwe airport is still close and doesnt record heavy air traffic, the Omagwa airport is still very much around, these airports for now will be ok for Abia passengers, now tell me what justification does he have to even dream about an airport. Woe betide you, you are in Ariairia and it rains, you will understand what having daft governor means. These traders pay huge amount of money in levies, yet the market is so messed up. I have said over and over again, that T.A Orji needs a brain transplant. He sacked non-indigenes to be able to meet the state's financial obligations, even the indigenes that were remaining, were they paid as at when due? Airport ko, waterway ni, this is just another ponzi scheme to eternally mortgage the financial future of Abians. |
DrKlever: Op I'm my early 20s, a medical student nd I recently met dis gal nd feel in love wit her. Our relationship is 3 months nd I noticed so many of ur signs in her. Her frend who liked me b4 jes started hating since we started dating. She wud b telling her silly tinz about me wc r not true. She wud giv excuses 4 nt being wit me, sumtimes I even feel she doesn't love me but jes attracted 2 me cuz I'm very handsome. She even said no sex wc I obliged cuz I'm a virgin anyway. Wat shud I do about dis relationship?Go to the nearest church/mosque/shrine and give your testimony. You have just been saved from a major distraction that could adversely affect your academics. Did you say you are a medical student? What I think you should do is concentrate on your studies squarely. Oh well!! |
god_of_music: She looks just like the girl i just fuccked yesternight in Top rank hotels.The one in Utako (Galaxy) or the one in Area 11 |
I think we should get 2 photographers and video guys/gals to avoid stories that touch |

MRbrownJAY: what else can you do but accept the blame for hiring a scammer.....and learn from your mistake?!You are right, but there was no how to know that the person was a scammer. |
House, I was going through my timeline on twitter and saw this question, so I decided to bring it on to this forum What will you do if you discover that after your wedding,the photographer you hired was only flashing and didn't take any picture? Mods, please be kind enough to move this to home page let's get the reaction of fellow nairalanders. |
What's the mileage? Any faults, why is it up for sale? |
Nairaland has taught me to be very objective while reading. It has also taught me that there is a whole lot of acrimony between different ethnic groups and that we the youths have also towed that line by analysing issues of national importance based on how they affect us(tribes). It has also taught me that given the same kind of circumstances our leaders have, that we the youths will most likely do worse When I moved on to stay on my own, I Visited the food section everyday to learn different recipes, I am not a chef now but i can cook for myself comfortably ![]() Nairaland has always made me to access issues based on how they affect the price of garri ![]() Infact, I visit nairaland every moment, its a great place to be........ Thanks Seun!! |
