dplordx: His 6 plots of lands? Really? It was something, but stop flaunting that on our faces. Mention something else.
Your people are ingrates! You need to learn to be grateful. Lagos has created many IBO billionaires and millionaires, and the least you could do is comply with the laws of the land. BRF isnt the tribalists here, it is you people!

Lagos state hasn't made any Igbo man a millionaire or billionaire rather the Igbo billionaires are making Lagos boom due to their commercial activities, tax paid and employment generated. If anything, the Lagos govt. should be grateful to them.

Igbo billionaires in Lagos are self made. They are only based in Lagos due to the presence of the Federal govt. owned Tin can and Apapa ports.

Also, how many South Westerners pay tax to any South East government?

9icest: ....HAS ANY OF YOUR STATE GOVERNMENT DONE SUCH FOR SOMEONE FROM THE SW!

Op, this is old news. Why not put your source?

Ifeanyi Ubah's governorship ambition is dead on arrival.

So, it's not today that the bald goat headed bastad Fashola started dumping people of other origin in Anambra.

OBAGADAFFI: Just shut up,
So how much did Tinibu bribed the US to evade arrest.

Your likes belong to the creeks and forest.

This guy keeps talking like a psycho. How many times will I explain to you that the sentence didn't involve jail but a forfeiture of assets which Tinubu gladly complied with.

OBAGADAFFI: So you now agree, that you are guilty digging up tread and tarnishing images.

By the way what came do i belong.

How can I tarnish an already tarnished image? I'm only bringing information to the attention of those who were hitherto ignorant.

Now, can you dispute what I posted? If you can't, then keep shut.

OBAGADAFFI: Your massage is false, why can't the US arrest the drug lord.

You Igbos just love looking for trouble.

I can see you have been digging up tread everywhere to Tarnish the image of your perceived opponents.

Just like your camp dig up news as old as 1983 to portray Buhari as an anti corruption crusader.

Mods, why was my thread on Tinubu from the following link deleted?

sleekdot: Thats Tinubu at the last years DNC convention in front of the FBI and everyone, If FBI wants him they should have arrested him there

Dude, read before commenting. No where in the article was it mentioned that Tinubu is wanted. He was tried, convicted and the penalty was asset forfeiture.

OBAGADAFFI: ANOTHER DELUSIONAL Igbo MAN.

Deal with the message and not the messenger.

ckkris: Is it the Ashiwaju Bola Tinubu, or, a different Bola Tinubu.

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Husband to a senator, father inlaw to a hon member house of representative and father to the Iyaloja of Lagos.

It's so sad that the opposition can only throw up a drug dealer as their leader.

No wonder GEJ termed ACN a party of rascals.

Breeze don blow!

oxford: Powerful forces with vested interests in the political logjam in Rivers State are pushing hard for the prosecution of pro-Amaechi members of the State House of Assembly over last week’s fracas on the floor of the legislature, The Nation on Sunday can now reveal.

The first step, according to sources, is the planned arrest of the lawmakers for interrogation.

Personnel of the Police and the State Security Service (SSS) perceived to have stepped out of official line may also be swept away in the aftermath of the fracas, triggered by the invasion of the Assembly by the five suspended anti-Amaechi legislators and thugs.

The fracas was recorded on video with some security officers caught throwing punches. Security agencies in Abuja are currently reviewing and analysing the video clips.

The aim is to identify who did what while the trouble lasted, with a view to deciding who to take in for questioning and possible prosecution.

Sources said preliminary analysis of the clips informed the invitation of Amaechi’s Aide-de-Camp (ADC) and Chief Security Officer (CSO) by the Police and SSS authorities in Abuja for explanation on the role they are believed to have played during the fracas.

A Deputy Inspector-General of Police, Philemon Leha, has already been appointed as chairman of a panel by the police authorities to investigate the brawl.

A source said: “I think some Rivers lawmakers might be arrested for interrogation and possible prosecution. The police and other security agencies are already studying the video clips and isolating those to be quizzed. Already, some policemen and security agents are facing intra-disciplinary interrogation over the fracas.”

It was suggested that the ongoing probe might be targeted at pro-Amaechi lawmakers.

A third source added: “As a matter of fact, some forces in Abuja are already pushing for the arrest of the Majority Leader of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Chidi Lloyds, who is currently hospitalised.

“They are accusing Lloyds as the mastermind because he had been their target all along having made the impeachment of the Speaker impossible. But pro-Amaechi lawmakers also have evidence of how they were first attacked by some of their colleagues and why they acted in self defence.”

The stalemate in the state has also forced security agencies to beef up surveillance around oil installations and put them on alert to avert turning the crisis to what happened in Egypt.

Investigation by our correspondent revealed that intelligence report cautioned that oil installations in the state might be targeted by some disgruntled elements using the crisis as a cover-up.

It was gathered that the government does not want oil thieves to take undue advantage of the situation to strike at oil installations.

According to records made available by Amaechi in a letter to President Goodluck Jonathan, Rivers State is “the largest on-shore oil producing State and the headquarters of Nigeria’s hydro- carbon industry.

“It is also home to Nigeria’s only Oil and Gas Free Zone as well as several off- shore oil and gas fields. In addition, Rivers State hosts multinational Oil and Gas Companies, Shell Petroleum Development Co (SPDC), MOBIL, AGIP, CHEVRON and many others.”A top security source, who spoke in confidence, said: “Both the military and other security agencies have been directed to enhance security in all oil and gas fields in the state.”

The source added that the increased surveillance was borne out of the need to protect the nation’s oil fields from being hurt by vengeance-seeking and desperate politicians.

Going by the part in bold above, the writer and editor of this article are plain stupid. What do they mean by Chidi Lloyd acted in self defence? Do they know what self defence is. From the video I saw, Chidi Lloyd was the aggressor; grabbing the mace and bashing that guy on the headis attempted murder. If Chidi Lloyd was attacked earlier, he should have sought redress through appropriate channels.

chuckdee4: Why do we always try to fly before learning how to walk.
The basics are not in place yet they are trying to embark on high tech projects, same way they tried to launch a rocket into space.
They can't even fully power the basic airports around the country.

Sort the power situation first then drive other projects off that

For your mind now, you be wise man. So every other ministry should grind to a halt and all other projects stopped until power is fixed?

Messi j: u be mumu for saying or posting this in affirmation to D test above u if it is u are reffering to. TWERP. U want to still hid the obvious fact that nigerians are nt serious. Only one of wht he mentioned like steel or Gold( which Ghana formely depended on) is enough to accrue huge revenue.

Obiagelli: Really? You guys should be careful with all this your best ever rating, have you wondered who created nigeria airways and made it admirable around the world?
Have you wondered who built those airports with scarce resources before they were left to decay

No doubt Stella os doing good but best ever? You've got to be kidding me.

Those structures were built in the days of the real oil boom when Nigeria's problem according to Gowon was not money but what to do with money.

Meanwhile, the post you quoted says best in the 4th republic ie since 1999.

Stella Oduah, Adadioramma. One of the best performing Nigerian ministers of all time.

CFCfan: ^^
The aerotropolis will have those things in place.

Why respond to that ode.

To him, the ministry of aviation should stop doing its work and take over the work of the ministries of power, labour, petroleum etc.

To him, the aviation projects won't create employment since ghosts will be the ones to carry out the construction works and also staff the airports on completion.
