emmatok: He said mention Power Plants started by GEJ.

Most of the once you mentioned here are the once started by OBJ.
No need for abuses.

Pls read my post again. The power stations listed were started by the current administration. And even if OBJ initiated NIPP, shouldn't this current administration be commended for actually executing, commissioning, and expanding the initial 7 power plants that the OBJ administration failed to achieve in 8 damn years?

jt2010: Can u mention about just two new power generations plants started by the GEJ Administration!!!

You sure about that. Okay, i'll bite.
1) 1074MW Alaoji Power plant, Abia state (2012)
2) 434MW Geregu II Power plant, Kogi state (2013)

Hey, why don't I add some more, dumbass?
3) 675MW Olorusogo II power station, Ogun State
4)450MW Omotosho II power station

6) 450MW NIPP Sapele Power Station, Delta state

Please note that I did NOT include power plants initiated by OBJ (but executed, completed, and commisioned by GEJ). Hey don't forget the following under construction, thanks to GEJ administration:
1) 450MW Ihovbor Power plant, Edo state (2012)
2) 338MW NIPP Egbema power station, Imo state
3) 561MW Calabar Power Station, Cross River state
4) 225MW Omoku II power station
5) 3050MW Mambilla Hydroelectric power station, Taraba state.

And don't forget the planned coal power generation plant at Itoba, Kogi state.

Good enough for you, douche bag?

I don't want to feel governments in newspapers or tv screens, i want to see with my own eyes and i want it to affect my life. Every other thing is propaganda and a waste of money.[/quote]So, the repairs of our road networks and other transport systems used to haul tonnes of goods and millions of Pax, the construction of new power generation plants, substations that power our homes and businesses, and other major projects highlighted during the GGT are all waste of money, abi?

Btw, if you have an issue with the road outside your home, blame your state governor or LGA chairman, not the FG.

take dat: Those benefiting from the fraudulent program on this forum, should please give us a break. Its bad enough that they are been paid DTA' from tax payers fund for the jamboree, but to forcefully shove it down our throats is a No-No!

It has been clearly stated in different posts that the Good Governance Tour was not imposed on anyone. So why the fuss? And please do tell, how's it being forced down your throats?

Vavavoom: The foolish thing about the ACN pull out? It has already created a sourgrape feeling and the tag of losers in the public domain. It also affords us, the electorate to decipher in a small way the mind of the opposition. Truly if development and progressivism of the nation as they preach is at the heart of their fight, then it should be a spur on that a challenge has been thrown by the pdp in ACN's face. If I were ACN I will run with pdp in their program and highligt their failures,examine the cost/project -make same public, take exeprience on how they can better same in states they control. That is the job of the opposition. TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE WEAK PERFORMANCE INDICES OF THE RULING PARTY AND HIGHLIGTING HOW THEY CAN BE IMPROVED. PDP inadvertently called them to come and evaluate but, and perhaps the fear that similar shortfallings will be discovered with the ACN domain made them have cold feet.

IT is time they, ACN step up their game and not just seek power for power sake. If they cannot take advantage of the fumblings of the ruling pdp, what difference are we to expect?

Mister, I owe you a carton of beer. Excellent post.

take dat: The governments of Borno and Yobe also asked Maku not to visit their respective states, and they are not ACN governors! Leaders not keeping to their word isn't strange, after all, some people are accusing the president of the same thing! Adhering to a Gentlemanly agreement is not constitutional, so is the NGGT!

I can't say I'm suprised about Yobe state. There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to show there, xcept Islamic extremism, tonnes of almajiris, and madrassas. But the state cannot stop the Good Governance Tour from visiting and inspecting FG funded projects there. 'same goes for Borno state.

Sweetapple007: Congratulation! Ant of Africa.

Yet ants are known to be hardworking and carry twice their body weight. Thanks for the compliment douche

idirect: [size=25pt]Lazy eediots[/size]

So true. It's time the FG lock up these useless criminals.

babapupa: Every village in Nigerian have zoomed past Lagos and Lagos is always behind, but you people still want to live and die in Lagos instead of the so called villages you listed.

Do you people even think before you open your upside down mouth?

Dude please! First of all, I don't live in Lagos. I actually pushed for, and got, a transfer OUT of darn state 'cos I couldn't stand it. The only time you'll see me in Lasigidi are during compulsory training programs or trips out of the state or country. As a matter of fact, my best moments in Lagos are those drives back to the airport .

As for others, I'm sure they're all there to take advantage of the large market there, thanks to Lagos's population. And I admit that the state provides a lot of job opportunities. But it's sure as hell on of the most unconducive and crowded place to live in.

NAIRALAND MODs, WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?! EVERYDAY, IT's CHIKA IKE THIS TONTO DIKE THAT!! DONT YOU GUYS HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THREADS TO PLACE ON TGE FRONTPAGE? HABA!

all4naija: Lagos is leading the way. I hope other states follow on the same footing.

Son, why not tell that to other states like Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and the FCT? They already zoomed past you.

eaglechild: Really?
But u had no problem getting orrgasms from streetlights hung on Ikorodu road yet providing the source to power your 'world wonder' Ikorodu lights and a lot more is now mediocre.
You are an award winning bigot.

Ouch

jmaine: The pathetic and notorious ACN slime infested maggot issuing a credibility score card & verdict . . .That's surely a new one !!!

Now kindly shame me by digging up any of my post in the Ogun flyover thread for all to see where i criticized that laudable project negatively ; even though the manner of the celebration was over board in my opinion, i simply laughed over it . .

Same as obtainable in the Fashola 7th wonder, world record shattering, Street lighting project . . .

So you have an assignment, hurry up and accomplish it fast . . .

Heehee 7th Wonder street lamps . Good one bruv

Slonge2: dumb akwaibomites because akpabio used all of akwaibom resources on uyo you are happy

Used all resources in Uyo only? LOL!! My friend visit Akwa Ibom! Even my local govt Etim Ekpo has way better roads than some high brow areas in Lagos. And it's even one of the least developed LGA in Akwa Ibom!!

Will over-time be paid?

Very impressive. And they say GEJ is not working. Kudos to the state govts also.

AREA!!
AREA!!
AREA!!

Ijogz K: I fink we just need to embark on a Nuclear technology program.

I'm afraid I disagree with you. How do we get rid of the nuclear waste? And why not go for cleaner forms of energy? We could harness the sun up north by building large solar farms. The nation equally boasts of large natural gas deposits. We could equally use that to power current and future power plants, and adopt new technologies that cut down or eliminate harmful wastes from these plants.

Mad Cow: When a people have been living in perpertual darkness for so long, the man who brings them a torchlight is king. Streetlights!! Uyo now operates with standard night driving aids. Even with no streetlights, a bildman can still drive around uyo.


He even commissioned streetlights!! lol.. #UNBELIEVABLE....

so true

Josh090: Am tired of all these people saying "have you ever travelled outside of SW", the story is the same EVERYWHERE!!!
All na wash! Especially this talk of calabar and uyo, why don't you talk of akwa ibom and cross river as a whole, then you'll understand that its really a case of 'the more you look the less you see'.

"The more you look, the less you see" abi? This is why i'll continue to ask blokes like you if you've actually left the boundaries of the SW and visited the aforementioned states and other region, 'cos you folks won't be spewing trash if you have done so.

born2fuck: Fashola will not even go for president now because I do not think Nigerian want good things, we will manage him within the west zone of Lagos,Ogun,Ondo,Oyo,Ekiti and probably Kwara (provided they beg).....

Praying for fashola to become president is like doing the northern and the eastern favour because they don't want to develop and civilised , we just need to pull our head together within west zone and make him head of west Nigeria ,making other west zone be like Lagos, Northerners do not want development, all they want is old fashion sharia law and the delta are the one bombing government properties similar to boko haram but as for easterner,if cares not taking they will sell the whole country to the European,I swear because all they care is about money

Let's build our home and leave the rest with their killing and corruption

Son, have you ever travelled out of the SW and visited other regions?

ACM10: If streetlight is one of the criteria for becoming our president, then Goodluck rightly deserves to be at Aso rock. Seriously, Govs. Chime, Amaechi, Akpabio, and even Peter Obi, Martin Elechi, Orji had erected streetlights without it hitting the frontpage of NL.

You must be confined to only Lagos if you think that it is only Fashola that is working. Some other governors are outperforming Fashola with little or no funfare. Chime erected streetlights for all the major roads in Enugu without commissioning them. Why must Fashola continue to flaunt his meagre achievement?

My brother, mbok tell them oh.

scribble: I really cant blame some of these Ekaette and Akpan that come here and say we should go to their state and see development.

Is it Akpabio that builds roads that cave in only few months later. Akpabio that clubs in night clubs and pays undergraduates for threesomes.

You see Akpan is deluded because Akpabio is giving them free movie ticket every Christmas after subsidizing Ben Bruce's fortune in his State.

Or is it Imoke that after embezzling Power sector fund as power minister under OBJ and is now on hiatus in obodo poyibo for treatment after reckless living with the peoples money?

Surely our God will visit these people!!!

I am a Christian but will use both my hand to cast vote for any ticket I see Fashola name on.

Roads that caved in? Mr. Man, have you been to Akwa Ibom or Calabar before? Have you actually gone beyond the borders of Ajegunle, or Lagos? 'cos I sincerely doubt you have, else you'll explain how roads built by Julius Berger and Setraco caved in. But hey, keep spewing trash on the thread. When you're thru embarassing yourself, lemme know. Monkey.

MODs, please we've got a burnt-offering Gaynian baboon infestation on this thread. Pls do something about it.

Akshow: i can see sentiment has becloud your sense of reasonin. So you think we are so despondent that we are praisin him jus cos of street light? Here is an assignment for you. Google Fashola's achievement and i dare you to compare it to any other state in naija. Perhaps then you will understand.

Uhmmmm......you reeeeeaally don't want to do that. Even Akpabio of Akwa Ibom has done a WAAAY better job than Fashola.

Abrantie GH: I wonder where he got the electricity to light up the streets.

I wonder what hole you crawled out from?

oddy4real: I am not saying Fashola is not trying but tooo much hype over every little thing he does. I see no reason why there should be so much hullabaloo over fixing of STREET LIGHTS. Things like dese are common place In places like Akwa-Ibom, Rivers, Enugu but you would NEVER see their Governors rushing to their press at the slightest opportunity!

So true. Agreed, the street lights are commendable. But for the love of God, its just street lights!! So why the unnecessary hype over something already done in states like Enugu, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Cross River (Calabar), and the FCT? As some posters have previously stated, you don't see the governors (and minister), ranting over this.

[quote author=p.josh]It is vewi good as Nigeria released those guys. That shows how RUSSIA cares for their citizins. Think of how many Nigerian that are in prisons all over the world,WAT HAS THE GOVERNMENT DONE ABOUT IT? F**C**UK OUR LEADERS FOR F**C**UKING THIS COUNTRY UP.[/quote]The sailors have NOT been fully released, but granted bail

Excellent job. Well done.

Symphony007: What sort of nonesense are some fools even saying here? Is'nt it the right of someone who has'nt been proven guilty to be granted bail at the pleasure of the judge? Does that in anyway signal the end of the case? Through out the cold war no single nuke was fired, not even to the most horrific nations on earth but some cows here are saying russia will nuke nigeria because of sailors? Do some folks here actually think before writing?

My brother, don't mind those fools.

[quote author=legacy_systems][img]c:\images.jpeg[/img]

Military might at work

Russia next-gen air defense system
Consist of Pantsir-S missile and artillery systems, as well as advanced radio equipment.

The S-400 is a next-generation anti-aircraft weapon system capable of firing three different missile types. The system was designed to intercept and destroy jamming planes, radar planes, reconnaissance aircraft, strategic carriers, cruise missiles and medium-range ballistic missiles.

Military analysts reported that the Triumph is capable of tracking more than 100 targets simultaneously at ranges of over 600 kilometers (370 miles), and destroying up to 12 targets at varying distances.[/quote]Yep, they threatened Nigeria with an AIR-DEFENCE SYSTEM.........seriously how does that work? Threaten to blow up any Nigerian plane that invades the airspace of mother Russia? Seriously.

ITbomb: I don't under why people are surprised, u make peace and agreement by subtle show of power.
The Russians said , if you don't release them we would turn one of the nuke head towards Nigeria.
This is totally different from Nigeria's approach which , 'please release our citizens' .

Yeah, cos the Russians will launch a nuke over 15 sailors. Riiiiiight......anyway, when you're done with your video games and Hollywood movies, snap back to reality.
