All these unviable airport which a good functional government would have turned into remote landing strips until a time when there are enough passengers to make them profitable and economically viable . The Only reason why they are spending scarce resources on airports with little or no utility is to be able to park their ill gotten private jets.

There are so many morons in that country.
Lagos must has budgetted an average of 300 billion naira throughout fashola's tenure .
The highest budget performance I have seen was 80 %.
This means that the state could only fund her budget by 225 billion or thereabouts .
It has got to a point that I simply ignore all these useless opinions .
I keep asking the same question.
Do these people honestly think that even 500 billion naira is enough for that congested city?
Like I have said before , there are hundreds of ways for me to criticise fashola's government. These criticism are based on facts and on the alternative utilisation of scarce resources without disrupting current engagements. I have decided to ceasefire because there are too many loud morons around.
I would rather pay attention to pat utomi's criticism of the Lagos mega city project( which would have reduced the number of morons in the metro area) than those of a nobody.
By the way , did you pay 20% of your incomes as tax?
If not , You have no skin in the game .
You should keep quiet.

This is getting boring.
Lagos was not developed by the federal government as ilu Eko predates your useless federal government.
If anything at all , the federal government presence destroyed the ambience of Lagos,cannibalised her architecture and brought too many wanted JJCs or should I say Johnny come latly. This has been proven time and time again.
comparing apkabio to fashola is becoming the joke of the season .
It like comparing a man with a tacky house(so-called " mansion" )in surulere or elsewhere with a professional with 5 townhouses in newyork or detached house in central London.
If you are talking about physical structures and getting the biggest bang for the buck,
Bring your apkabio and compare him to 3 years of amosun in ogun state.
But I will not go into this dumb ,low level argument on your understanding of governance .
Governance is a process and a science . The lack of governing institutions and processes makes every other thing plain window dressing.
That is why one governor builds a road which ends up looking for cars , while the other is building mini power station to bypass the useless power grid and supply electricity to her governing institutions (rather than free electricity to bayela). Already LASG Generates almost 100MW and more and more are being built( using brains to get around the corrupt centralisation of everything.
It is the same reason why the mass transit rail is being built.


your apkabio is not different from other African dunderheads. In fact , amaechi is more of a modern and better leader. This is because rivers state not only share similar social and demographic challenges with Lagos , but is saddled being neighbours with a lawless state like bayela and banditory on the high seas.
My advise is for you to compare him with delta state governor.

Nice one .

To the OP:

Human beings are conditioned by thousands of years of evolution.
Why don't we have natural wings and fly like the birds in the sky?
Why do rich people marry only the rich?
Why did most blacks vote for Obama?
Why did most whites vote against Obama in 2 elections?
Why do some country want to quit the European Union ?
Why doesn't the ottoman or Hungarian empire exist today?


It seems that you have not gotten the memo.
You are fighting nature.
Like Birds flock together.
We are not the same and we are a different people .
You can blunt it the so-called tribalism with education and social justice, but you can never be rid of it.
In Nigeria's case as with the Austria-hungarian/ottoman , it will always have the same ending

War.
So get ready.

Well well, even fashola gave credit to the help given by foreigners
They didn't actually save us but they helped. The polio team funded by the Bill and melinda foundation were redeployed from fighting polio. The US centre for disease control were also part of the initial team .Especially ,important when most of the salary chasing doctors were too scared.
If you want to talk about Afrocentrism , let us start with the real problems.
Christianity and Islam

This is the stomach infrastructure ( for citizen, state and odua states) that I know.
The ekiti type is Amala politics.

Akpabio ko , yayannio ni.
Simply leave fashola out of it .Fashola has no grade in Nigeria. Even Amosun no be him mate. More factories / large manufacturing coys than the entire SS/SE put together . More being built ( the most recent one was commissioned yesterday)
Compare apkabio to obong of Equatorial guinea. They have exactly the same profile. His kinsmen are scattered across the SW scrambling for their daily bread.
What utility does that stadium have apart from the occasional event( the same criticism I have for fayemi's pavilion) .
The population of akwa ibom using Lagos social services must be at least, half of those resident at home.
That stadium would end up tying down developmental funds for maintenance.

Una "sufferness" just dey starts. 1983 is back. The exact replica of shagari's hapless "come and chop" regime. It is not surprising that the players( praise-singers and actors) are the same.

Austerity 2.0 coming .
You and not the corrupt FG , are going to pay for it.

Non-jobs.
More like "work"

A few of us saw this coming and it is only going to get worse if oil prices keep falling.
Iweala and co were sent to shape Nigeria economy for exploitation.The reason she removed tariffs from candles,toothpick,pencil,pen etc. she was even granting waivers for cooking pot and frying pans.
The rats are jumping the sinking ship.
They come in when the stock exchange is like e.g N10 , Artificially blow it up ,and remove their mugu money at N100.
Same people will then go and take a short position on the Nigerian economy.

Their biggest economy charade unravels. Instead of working to make it one, they embark upon on a stealing binge.
South Africa manufactures and exports textile, machinery ,electronics,food,processed foods, fruits,solid minerals.

When " I have no shoes" is the criteria for leadership selection,you get dumbo all the time.
Dumb president,
Daft citizens.

I have been saying this for 3 yrs. If care is not taken, the world food program will feeding y'all

Hmm

Easy logic to understand.

The country is falling apart yet people are behaving as if all his well.
At this rate, they will get to Abuja by December.

Yep.
But he always gravitates towards stupidity whenever it is time to choose his successors. He ends up destroying his work

Ain't my problem.
War requires brains and there is a dearth of brains right now.

Putrid fresh air.

GenBuhari:
Thief Obasanjo you had eight years to fix Electric Power problem. you even took $16Bn from our treasury for this purpose, but you only gave us more darkness.
Now you saying you plans have been shelved?

So you spend your time in office looting us dry and squandering our wealth and then when you leave office you criticise your successor for not carrying out your plan for development. Genius!!

Thief Obasanjo, Nigerians are not 5 year olds kids

That You repeat it 1 million times does not make it the truth.
Obj invested only 5 billion dollars into the power sector and built 5 power stations ,substations , transmission facilities which dumbo is trying to claim .
This in addition to the 3 power stations built by oil companies and the 250MW Enron station conceived by the tinubu led LASG.

No maintenance culture

That cat in the church surely has 9 lives. I have a friend with that gift.

Hmm

Yawn.
Trying to muddle the fact that he is a pay-per -post propagandist for the corrupt Jonathan government.

One of Jonathan thieves aka aides probably organised a profitable racket on the ceasefire.
We do not call him a clueless dummy for nothing. Someone has been smiling to the bank.

since they have refused to deal with the terrorists, there is nothing wrong with using the circumstantial evidence to point the fingers at Jonathan.
He and his clan of lawless thieves and killers are guilty as charged.

Once the air manifest shows that there are people carrying that green passport, there will surely be policemen, anti drug squad, anti terrorists and anti money- laundering squad waiting to give you a special welcome. This special welcome is denied other nationalities.

Pathetic

Nigeria is one big mental asylum and they keep breeding more and patients.

Monsanto.
Foolish and useless leaders .
Jonathan is essentially signing many people's death warrant.

Google Monsanto if you have no clue .
The best way I can dumb it down and summarise it is ,once these gmo crops take over,you crop will need chemicals ( herbicides and pesticides) from the company called Monsanto to be healthy. Also you would have to buy those seeds from this particular company .green scientist have proven that the crops are dangerous and in many cases , contain high levels of cyanogen .
Cyanogen causes cancer
