US Air Force is not aware of that crap

What crap? The planes sold to Nigeria?

Botragelad:
Read to understand boy. A Russian-made Iranian Yak-130 is exactly what it sounds like. Built in Russia, bought by Iran a couple years back to modernize their air force and train pilots for their old MiGs/Su- fighters.

I brought Russia in because an Israeli F-35 shot one of these Yak-130s over Tehran. A Russia piece of nonsense. What are you crying about? Fix your forehead son.

Imagine Nigeria is in a conflict with another country and they shoot down one of the NAF Super Tucanos which we procured recently from the US.... And then someone uses that event as a basis to ridicule US air force.

That's how ridiculously childish your narrative sounds by dragging Russia into this.

bestman09:
Enough of these analyses.
China are just wasting resources.

Any property you don't use is a waste as it will continue rusting away

CHINA: "We will not fire the first shot, but we will never allow a second"

There's a reason the US wouldn't even bother facing certain kind of countries in war. Wars aren't only fought with bullets and missiles!

Phew!... Finally Nigeria is represented in something which isn't exactly negative!

Ezewuzie01:
Peter Obi couldn't do something like this in Anambra because he was too demented. In his mind, what Anambra people needed was to get high with beer.

Going by your logic, even your President Emilokan is demented too cos history doesnt have a record of him installing even single pillar for this project.

Anyway, I think we all know who the real demented person is here...

Zionmdde:
What I know is that no politician can rig any election without the common man on the streets. So if the common man is not tired of the way Nigeria is today, then no problem. But if they are tired, they know what to do

I thought with 36 governors and over 200Million Nigerians standing on the mandate, tinubu should never have been afraid of a free and fair election.

Even house of rep ye or ne is rigged talk less of elections

The common man on the street is hungry and also greedy. A hingry man can easily be influenced to even kpai himselfm

yarimo:
but obi reacting to cases in Lagos state he is not a private citizen abi? Hypocrites kids everywhere

ProudlyLagos:
but he is not the president but he can talk about happenings in Lagos and other state outside his ipob sit at home terrorised region? His hypocrisy is nauseating

What law prohibits a private citizen from commenting on or reacting to events happening in any part of their own country? Point to it. Cite it. Show it!

What kind of dumb logic is this? Is this honestly the sharpest argument the brains of APC supporters can churn out?

ChukwuObe:
But why do we have so many dumb people in this country? Any law without a provision if the clause fails is bound to cause and create chaos. Imagine there is no network in Obi's polling unit, will they be happy if the results of the votes are not counted just because the e-transmission is not possible? What happens if some people spend lots of money to buy signal jamming equipment and deploy it in their opponent's region to prevent e-transmission, will they not be crying if the results are voided? Please use your brain. Imagine if card reader was made mandatory when Jonathan biometrics could not be captures, would he have voted without manual option?

Always the ApC theived and bandits speaking English to defend fraud in advance!

Ezewuzie01:
The lady should also ask Peter Obi why his children are in the UK and not in Anambra that he governed for eight years.

So you want the bandits and terrorist your APC federal government and armed forces have been breeding, defending and pampering in Nigeria since 2015 to consume his children?

Fix the security situation and see if diasporans and japarians wouldn't surge back into the country.

yarimo:
Peter obi you are yet to react or condemn IPOB terrorists sit at home orders in your state

The person you're supporting who happens to be the sitting president and commander in chief of all armed security forces in Nigeria, before you call on OBI who is a private citizen, has your president uttered a single word about it?

You want a private citizen to do the job of the government you claim to have voted in?

Burob:
Na u bring up Obi’s name, Charity they say begins @ home, & we all know that what is good for the goose, is also good for the gander, so I asked u how much did Anambra state release for capital projects to state hospitals?

Oh wow! I didn't know OBI was a government official in you people's own world.

TheBizGenius:
Hellooooo.

Some of us have dads who worked in the upper echelons of power in the ministries.

You assume a car/air conditioner/photocopier won't break down and need replacement not maintenance? Abi you think they count all those as recurrent expenses?

And you assume N36m will cover all that within a year in a ministry that covers 36+1 states? That's N1m/state?!

Think am well well ooo.

I stand to be corrected by someone who works in the health sector on the level of a permanent secretary and above anyway.

Repairing faulty cars or air conditioners, or even outright replacement of certain items doesn't always constitute capital expenditure; those are operational costs.

By the way, the revelation of N36 million was made be the minister of health himself during budget presentation; so what exactly do you need a perm secretaries to clarify for you?

helinues:
Are you included?

Relevance of the question?

helinues:
Productive people are at work today Monday

Those people at the National Assembly gate are more productive than 99% of the people inside the NASS and 99% of Nigerians currently sitting in government offices doing nothing. These guys are doing the Lord's work to save the nation from the filthy shameless scoundrels you support. Posterity will be very fair to these guys...

muykem:
Does it mean that they have not been paying salary to their staff? Nigeria love sensational headline without asking questions. How are the two ministers of health running their offices?

gbagyiza:
How will a normal person believe this news. Nigerian health sector would have crashed completely with that kind of figure.

TheBizGenius:
It's actually not Nigeria per se.

It's majorly forums like nairaland and the people here that believe these stories that obviously don't add up.

And it speaks more to the commenters cognitive abilities than to the article itself anyway.

Gboom:
Most of you believing this criminal manipulation are myopic thinkers. Hatred has replaced you sense of reasoning because of politics of bitterness you are practicing. 36 million cannot pay 10% of staff salaries for one month alone, or how will this meagre sum pay for other overheads. Try and practice better opposition, this one lacked common sense

You guys are trying to be too smart for yourselves; go back and read the report properly before defending. Report clearly talks of CAPITAL BUDGET, not the recurrent funds for overheads.

Burob:
How much did Anambra State release?

What's the correlation?

Were talking of how much the FG released for capital projects in Federal Hospitals, you're desperately trying to divert the focus of the discussion.

If you want to know what states released, you might want to go and ask the health commissioner in Anambra, or better still the governor of Anambra.

HonNL:
Health: What we ordered vs what we got

Source

Going by this report, it means even Peter OBI gave more to hospitals from his private pocket than the federal government released for capital projects. Yet the government has borrowed tens of trillions.

Some of these people have really despicable mentalities. Just imagine this one equating people desiring a separate country with terrorists who kill and maim thousands of people on a regular basis. The hatred these folks have for Igbos is even worse than the regard they have for their own lives.

If these guys hate the Igbos so much, then why do they hate the fact that ipob wants to leave the union?

Akpakomiza2:
Then where is the real time upload

If I send a message on Whatsapp, even if there's no network on my phone, the message registers on the system as being sent and whenever network returns to the phone, the message will be delivered.

The most important point here is that it registers on the system as being uploaded at a certain timestamp and there should be no option to resend or alter the uploaded result at a later time or date.

Still not good enough and definitely not what Nigerians need!

The current provision still gives desperate politicians a very well lubricated loophole to bypass the e-transmission of results.

On election day I'm sure 90% of the country's polling units would return the same excuse - no network.

yarimo:
The surprising thing it usually happens when the car is on slow motion

It can actually happen any time. But it's only when it happens in slow motion that the world knows it is what happened. In otherwords, if it happens when fast, it typically leads to a catastrophic accident involving the vehicle summersaulting and people usually wouldn't realise that this was the cause.

As the oga in this case, I'd do exactly the same thing the man did. I'd apologise to wifey but you see that nwa boy? He's not going anywhere!

Meanwhile if this story were true, I can bet my life that the lady assaulted the sales boy first.

sammiewrite:
Charge or sentence them to court if you want to. Deport them even if you feel like it. But, "larceny," "money laundering remarks," "driving under the influence liquor," "conspiracy (to do what?), "intimidation," and "theft of US government property (why not state the property involved in clear terms?) should never earn anyone anywhere the lifetime tag of "worst of the worst." These funny charges already make suspect of the other charges. Really feel for some of these guys.

Some of those charges actually got me confused; traffic offences, DUI, intimidation, conspiracy, and these are supposed to be the "worst of the worst" criminals in the US?

9jatriot:
Now we are getting somewhere. It is no longer that all other roads have been abandoned to focus on the coastal road, it is jsut that the other roads they are working on have not gotten to the ones close to you.

Go back and read my two earlier comments on this thread. I specifically pointed out the importance of sensible prioritisation.

By the way, Benin-Warri road or PH-Aba road arent the only bad roads needing quick attention in Nigeria.

9jatriot:
Non-sens and ingridients.....


All the roads that are simultaneously going on, did the coastal road stop it? Diesani is being tried in the UK for money stolen from Nigeria, there is no noise from you guys but the guy who says rather than make money available to be stolen let us use it for projects it then you guys start speaking grammar. Priority ko priority nee.

All the roads that are being done right now, did they stop?

Key projects, often utilizing concrete pavement, include the Enugu–Onitsha Road, 2nd Niger Bridge access roads, and Enugu–Port Harcourt Expressway.

Enugu–Onitsha Road (107 km): Funded partly via the MTN Tax Credit scheme.

Enugu–Onitsha Road (72 km): Reconstruction by CBC.

2nd Niger Bridge Access Road (17.5 km): Dualization and construction.

Enugu–Abakaliki Road (36 km): Ongoing construction.

Lokpanta–Enugu Road (61 km): Dualization.

Enugu–Port Harcourt Expressway: Major rehabilitation sections.

Enugu Bridge at Artisan Market: Completed reconstruction.

Akpoha Bridge, Ebonyi State: Completed construction.

Aba-Owerri Road (NNPC Depot Expressway), Abia State: Rehabilitation.

Umuahia to Aba Road: Construction project.

Angingali-Udobi-Udona-Umo-Uwana-Ubalaka Road, Imo State: Construction.

These projects are part of the Renewed Hope Agenda, with the Federal Ministry of Works, led by David Umahi.

Ordinary Nigerians who simply want a better life, and who aren't given to noisy political sycophancy, are tired of this rhetorical nonsense! Fix the damn roads, people will see results, and they'd spend their time talking of other things. You wouldn't have to be in Nairaland everyday preaching 'Renewed Hopelessness'.

The Benin-Warri highway is barely 60 miles long and the truly bad sections arent even that extensive. Yet for the last decade, it's been taking over 3 frustrating hours to drive between both cities and you're talking 'Renewed hope'? What makes it even more infuriating is how short the distance is and how easy it would be to patch uyp such a short stretch.

The current government has been around for close to 3 years now, yet you expect sensible people to applaud you for abandoning such a simple fix in favour of building a brand new road? .. and you think nothing's wrong with your sense of priorities?

What about the short stretch of Federal road between Port-Harcourt and Aba? That's barely 35 miles, yet it takes close to 2 hours and this has been the case for ages. Several other similar cases all over the nation, yet the only brilliant thing you can say is Diezani?

[quote author=wwwihy post=138307302]I remember when some people said the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway wasn’t needed.

This is now the daily evening rush-hour traffic on the coastal highway[/quote]

9jatriot:
Any body that stays in Lagos, particularly on the Island, and still considers Obi better than BAT needs to go for a psychological evaluation.

We told them that no infrastructure is useless once it is built. They were listening to all the opposition that offered nothing.

Atiku's condemnation of the road was at least to ask for clarification on the contracting process. That one is good small, but you see the other guy, that one who likes to attend burials,

He considered it a waste; it is the same waste that is benefiting Nigerians in Lagos now.

[quote author=wwwihy post=138307358]Especially the Agulu Fraud , Mr Negativity[/quote]No one really needs special wisdom or intelligence to understand the concept of priorities!

Over ₦15 trillion for a brand-new coastal road, while abandoning federal highways that carry 99% of the traffic to rot for years is pure misplacement of priorities.

The very short Benin–Warri critical stretch for example that should take 30–45 minutes if patched up, currently steals 2-3 hours of people’s lives daily, and this has been a nightmare for close to a decade. Only a miscoscopic fraction of the cost of the coastal road would solve this and thousands of other similar problems faced by millions.

So no, this isn’t about being 'anti-development' or partisan, this is just basic common sense. You don’t abandon serviceable infrastructure to chase shiny mega-projects that may not even be completed in 20 years. Poor prioritization is poor prioritization!

I understand where you guys are coming from though, and its clearly not from ignorance. Rather it’s driven by blind political loyalty or possibly ethnic sentiments; you guys just feel a need to endorse whatever the government does while opposing watever the opposition says. So a debate on this is really pointless!

meobizy:
I’m still looking for what to do with this information.

It's just to let you know that if you've crossed a certain age range, and you still dreaming of being a billionaire, then the odds are stacked against you....

TheStoriesOfMan:
E say I be atheist🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Your comeback so lame, your pastors no fit make net profit from offerings.

Keep worshipping pastors.

This is the last post I'll write on this matter.

Oya congratulations, na you wise pass. And thank you for the unsolicited advice.

TheStoriesOfMan:
Why won't I get true facts and conclusions about people when I know them better than themselves? You think they'll open up to you and tell you the truth on a normal day? You think they care?

Lol.

Whether anybody told me that your pastor cares you or not, is none of my business. I have told you what needs to be done. You either ignore it or follow your own path to worship pastors for whatever purpose.

Enough said!

Keep you atheism to yourself, be proud of it and stop trying to desperately drag others into your bubble.

...and while you're at it, feel free to keep deluding yourself that you know me or my pastor.

TheStoriesOfMan:
How do you sit down in your house and defend pastors who don't know you and who don't care about your spiritual journey?

Never make the mistake of thinking that these MOG care about your overall growth.

The only thing you can do is to go to church, listen to the pure, unadulterated word of God, then apply them to your daily living.

If any sermon there is too complicated, seek your Bible and contact the Holy spirit for advice.

Did I or anyone around me complain to you that my pastor doesnt care about me?

Do you think it's normal for you to make such bizarre assumptions and conclusions about people you dont know?
