ogb5: Lord this my prayer.

There is a man who wants to be governor of delta state in 2015, lord do not let it come to pass.
The man is the minister of Niger Delta ministry.
His name is Orubebe, Lord in your infinite wisdom do not let this man come close to the govt house at Asaba in 2015, otherwise delta will be finished.

The only major road project under his ministry is the east west road, that project has been moving at snail speed.
If Orubebe had completed the road, our president's in-law would not have died of accident travelling between ph and bayelsa.

Lord all our previous governors are either working crooks like Ibori, or non working saints like Ibru. We have never had non working crooks as governors. Orubebe has all the penchant of a non working crook.

Give the president and 1st lady the wisdom to understand that this tragedy was directly caused by the ineptitude of his ministers of works and that of the Niger Delta.

This we pray today through our lord. Amen

hotmas911: modernisation is not westernisation. I just think our politicians need to modernise.

"We want to go with our XY"
Aromate! Aro!
Aromate! Aro!
Ayin kperere!

Honorable, state of emergency go happen!

collynzo2: ^^^ proves my point. All the countries which generate sufficient electricity have one thing in common, COAL. That might just explain Nigeria's problems.

addictiv: [size=13pt]so because you want to diversify, you build a new estate with thatched hoses made of mud when other people are converting their mud buildings to concrete... we have two major sources which are hydropower from kanji dam and gas, how well have we used them? diversification is cool but you ll agree with me that the cost of building and developing a coal based industry is much more compared to upgrading the gas power industry which we already have....the key words are sustainability and conservation. its just like buying a new car because the one you have isnt functioning properly when it just needs proper care and servicing. how sure are you that the new one isnt gonna meet the same fate?. God bless Nigeria!!![/size]

addictiv: [size=14pt]for your own information countries using coal are moving towards renewable's .if you know anything about global energy, you should know that countries are fined heavily for each metric ton of carbon produced, and thus they are trying as much as possible to step their figures down.
what happened to our gas, much of it is still flared or liquefied and exported as LNG. then even with the little that goes to the gas turbines, the infrastructure to utilize them are either not available or not functioning optimally. counties are upping their hydroelectric systems, investing in fuel cells and bio fuels which we can conveniently develop with the massive presence of fossil fuels.And someone is talking about coal.if we start using coal when people are leaving it, how does that reflect on us in the international community? with the environmental effects, what legacy are we leaving for the future generation. always remember that a problem deferred is never a problem solved. being very hungry is not a good reason to eat foods that will kill you, we must change that mentality if we want to progress as a nation.[/size]

jackbauersballs: From Coal?

In this day and age where most countries are looking to reduce their carbon footprints, Naija wants to fire up the Coal Factories...

Lol una for even use firewood join...Olodo FG

addictiv: [size=14pt]when countries around the world are investing in renewable energy and developing better sources of sustainable energy.....we are driving backwards into the age of coal, which is a synonym for pollution, very funny advisers in the presidential cabinet, with no sense of reasoning. the supplus gas in the countries reserves can conveniently feed the whole nation. they should think in that direction..[/size]

BY AUSTIN OGWUDA
ASABA — THERE was com-motion at an Asaba High Court, yesterday, as two robbery suspects took everybody unawares and escaped from the court room immediately the judge sentenced them to death by hanging, having found them guilty on two-count charges of armed robbery.

The two suspects who were in the dock without handcuffs jumped out, and became violent, used a wooden barricade used to block traffic leading to the court to hit prison officials chasing them.

The convicts were one Elvis Agbofodo and Frank Okedema both from Ekpan community, Uvwie Local Government Area of the state.

Prosecution had told the court that they robbed the residence of one Mrs. Mercy Omatseye of valuables and cash on July 8, 2010.

Both of them were, however, re-arrested with the assistance of the residents of the area. One of the them was shot by armed prisons official who pursued him to a nearby church premises, about 100 metres from the court.

As a result of the incident which took place at about 11.30 am, further proceedings in the court were disrupted as the judge, court officials and lawyers scampered for safety as gun shots rented the air.

New Controller of Prisons in the state, Mr. Joseph Olanrele, had during a recent courtesy visit to the state Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Charles Ajuyah (SAN) expressed worry over the large number of condemned criminals in various prison formations across the state, noting that it was worrisome as they (condemned criminals) constantly create problems for prison officials looking after them while awaiting the hangman.

Ajuyah, on his part condemned the use of phones by some inmates even while in the court, saying such act is capable of undermining security of officials and inmates

nijanigga: Good thought,It's a simple logic,but Nigerians have better ideas in scams or looting .They are using 50 police men to guard pipelines in the age of technological advancement.This problem has been reccurring,yet no end to the vandalism anytime soon.Nigeria is still in living in dark age.

Yoshi-Master:
How could they have operated for that long undeterred? What happened to the alarm systems in the operations control rooms.

A breach in the pipeline should have at least caused a LOW PRESSURE alert using whatever pressure monitoring system (i.e pressure transmitters, and flow transmitters) downstream of the affected area.

Alerts on expensive infrastructure like these should be taken seriously, and as for the vandals, I just don't understand why some people will vandalize their own.

The funds used to make repairs could have been used to better some individuals environments (in the absence of corruption) be it through beautification projects, sanitation, small road networks, drainages, and so much more.

Bottom line is I won't put the weight of this on the vandals, but rather on the lag time between the criminal act, and the response.

EmperorOlu: Alarm gini? Where do you think you are? USA or the dustbin country known as Nigeria?

kingthreat: Hmmm, can't wait for 500k to be cheap money to me too.

onuwaje: Listening to d 2music... I think its durella that owns the music.. Dbanj is getting wacked by the day

@dhrey
What has the bolded part of ur statement got to do with the question raised by the Op? This style of argument reminds me only of some okada riders in my area.

slimyem: Would be hard to read it with any seriousness or deep reflection.

mbhs139: Wouldn't you have done same if after reading such a laudable idea all some people have to say is to pour aspersion on the person of the Governor?

Take it or leave it: Fashola is Working/Lagos is Working

When was the last time you read on this thread that Fashola is fighting one Local Government Chairman or a Commissioner, or grounding the Aircraft or Vehicle of one somebody. If he's not commissioning one project or another, he's busy inspiring some people somewhere on how to make the state work.

Abu Mikey: How come this threÀd started on a very bad note!!....So many HIDDEN POSTs already

pistol: Bia this eko ile,
Don't you have something productive to do with your time eh?
When next fashola shiites,pls don't forget to come tells us ok.

Boeing412: Dana Air Almost Killed Me Yesterday

Here's my personal experience with Dana yesterday....passengers beware o!

We boarded a dana flight 9J-357(LOS-ABV) yesterday at MM2 Lagos finally @ past 5pm after an hour delay,only for the plane to taxi,rise into the air a bit and suddenly came down again!

Everyone on board thought it was the end of our sojourn here on earth!

The pilot then announced it was a technical problem and didn't want to take chances so we had to board another plane...just barely a year after the last crash....makes me wonder if anyone cares about human lives in this Country!

Dana should b grounded til they stop "managing" planes.

Our attention has been drawn to an online report suggesting that a Dana Air aircraft had an air return shortly after take-off from MMA2 on Monday, 10th June,2013.

Firstly, we wish to state that this report is false and totally misleading. As can be verified by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and the National Airspace Management Agency (NAMA), at no time was a faulty Dana Air aircraft airborne. The flight crew on flt.9J-357 on the said date, upon noticing a snag on the aircraft, cancelled the flight in line with global best practices and called for a replacement aircraft which eventually ferried all 44 guests to Abuja safely.

Secondly, we wish to clarify that while aircraft in the service of local and international airlines do experience snags, they are not returned to service until the reported snags have been rectified and the aircraft recertified by the regulatory authority; this is the standard practice globally. For the records too, Air Returns are not uncommon in the global aviation industry and, when they occur, are done as a precautionary safety measure.

At Dana Air, the safety and comfort of our guests and crew is a priority and we would continue to go the extra mile to deliver reliable, world-class air transport services to our esteemed guests.

Thank you.

Its amazing how people dont read and more shocking is the number of people that

The 2 stories are perfectly the same just the use of words made the difference.
So many illiterates online these days and that is why Nigerians fail woefully.

Smae stories can appear on NL and also on Yahoo news. go read the comments. You will see amazing differences
