Intellectually retarded.
This writer is Intellectually stupidz and dumb.
Even the arguments lacks logic.
He claims cities are dirty because people are retarded.
Dumb conclusion.
Answer : problems beyond capacity of the governing class due to many reasons. E.g overpopulation, lack of resources/institutions , breakdown in societal values, corruption, incompetence, stupidity,illiteracy, poverty,governing structure.
the problem is not that of the hausa alone. It is applicable to all parts of the country.
Religion and oil has run that country mad. And yes problem affect the hausa /fulani more than the rest of the country

Waste of money. Get on with the job

You want to give some people heart attack

Arote.
One of the few Conscientious politicians in Nigeria. At least he knows what is right from what is wrong. He also remembered to do stuffs that will touch the little man on the street with his health and education investments
That is why I disagree with cramjones on his attack on Ben Bruce Murray.
Nigeria would have been in a better place with Ben Bruce than with Jonathan.
Yes he is no mother theresa and he is also not Jonathan. He also knows how stuffs should work.
At least you know that he would gravitate more towards intelligent people than toward the touts Jonathan openly pals around with.
I can withstand lies from intelligent people than lies from quacks,crooks and buffoons.
This is why I agree with a comment I read online that
Nigeria's liberation would depend on the magmanimity of a few good men who decide to the right thing.
Definitely not on the masses who have continously shown themselves of being incapable of sound judgement.

Expect see him in an American university within 6 months.
They use that scholarship thing to attract brains

Fact: The most educated king in Nigeria.
Probably in the whole of Africa.

Good job
Party hard, work smart.
My only grudge against this project is the involvement of the federal government( done to get buy-in) . The LASG could have sourced the 10% equity the FG is holding, from odua states citizens.the same way those miracle banks were able to fleece people out of their money.
The SW government should start thinking about ways to bring some of the millions of first eleven,who are resident overseas, back home.
Skill transfer is very important. Especially in terms of administration, science engineering and IT

Also, 21 century Technical education and formalising some of the existing trades like bricklaying, carpentry, butcher,mechanic will be another to move further ahead of the country pack

Who is giving this fossil oxygen?

EUROBOMBER:
There is nothing wrong in holding meetings and also nothing wrong in a struggle geared towards the betterment of the people of the Niger Delta. My advise is that we should give Buhari a chance and see what he has to offer, who knows, he might turn out to be a blessing for the region. Jonathan was there for over 5yrs and nothing to show for it even in the Niger Delta! I am still at a shock today that Jonathan could not ensure that Ibaka seaport at Akwa Ibom was given priority and completed before the end of his tenure. One vital thing we need for a massive turnaround in the East would be a functioning seaport capable of berthing large ocean liners so that our people can massively divert their import activities to the East but the stark reality is that Jonathan failed. He also promised to build a second Niger bridge before 2015 and here we are in 2015 and the bridge has not been built.

What if Buhari builds that seaport? What if Buhari eventually builds that second Niger bridge?

I am really angry with Jonathan.

Divest all we care, it will not be felt.
Most of the cargo coming to lagos are industrial cargoes and most of it is consumed right in the SW.
I am all for it as long as it reduces the population pressure on odua state.

$11 billion
Ask Jonathan,Deizani and iweala

lexy2014:
Geographically, ondo state isn't in d delta. D real delta states are those around d coast usually triangle shaped were rivers flow split into several channels. Its inclusion as a niger delta state is 4 administrative convenience cos it is an oil producing state. Remember that d predecessor of NDDC was d oil minerals producing areas development commission (OMPADEC)

Look up the definition of a DELTA. That is before adding Niger before it.
Then Mr geographer should go on his map.

I like the landscaping job and paving job done around the building . Something many governors do not bother to do.

Everything is plan, plan, plan.
At the end of the day, nothing like do, do, do.
Plan to build 2 bridges every year......
Big deal.
Maybe what is actually needed is re-education.

Like I have always said, the earlier the citizens of odua states start lobbying the international community to get out of the useless country, the better.
An odua state citizen spent 30 years doing his homework while ogogoro drunk thinks he can change the persons destiny.
These fools think the strategic thinking behind the burgeoning SW oil industry ( skilled based rather than raw materials) is based on dependence on Niger delta oil.
Nope.
That oil can easily be sourced from Ghana, Algeria, Angola, equatorial guinea and Gabon with an insignificant increase in operational cost from the cost of transportation.
Let them continue shitting on their home land and expect one imaginary investor to come.
Fashola has been building courts every year just to improve the rule of law.
Last week, he commissioned the new Court of arbitration
Do these foolz know the purpose of a court of arbitration.
Keep building hotels, flyovers to nowhere and governors' palaces.









“This is a huge milestone in the history of Ladol,” said Amy Jadesimi, Ladol CEO, in an interview with Oil & Gas Technology. “We have been developing the facility for thirty years and the ground-breaking today is a real watershed moment.”

The new shipyard has been built by Ladol and Samsung Heavy Industries Nigeria and will be West Africa’s largest vessel fabrication and integration facility, creating 50,000 new jobs in Nigeria.

Ladol spent USD 500m to construct its Deep Offshore Logistics Base specialised industrial village near Lagos to provide maritime and oil and gas services.

“Our focus and mission is to build infrastructure that will allow foreign companies to come and participate in Africa’s largest oil and gas market without having to compromise on efficiency and cost.”

“In other words they can come in here and bring their own staff or set up their own facilities, independently or jointly with us, and be able to operate in their own safe environment.”

The facility is strategically located on an island at the point of entry into Lagos harbour, directly opposite Apapa Port in the LADOL Free Zone.

“This is why the government has set up the Free Zones and supported us. They want this private investment and know that it needs a combination of indigenous investors building a place that foreign investors can come into and operate efficiently.”

The Ladol facility will be officially opened in a groundbreaking ceremony later today which will be attended by various Nigerian dignitaries, the managing director of Shell and the joint-venture representatives.

In 2010 Total signed an agreement with the Nigerian government that ensured a portion of construction for offshore projects will be performed in Nigeria. It is now possible for Total to now fulfil this promise using the Ladol shipyard, where it now plans to build at least one of its planned floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels.

“This is the ideal location for Total and the only 100 per cent indigenous facility.”

Jadesima believes that through this facility the domestic engineering and construction sectors will explode.

“We have at least three major FPSO projects coming up that will cost us up to USD 30bn, with Shell saying that Nigeria will soon be their highest spend area in the world, reckoning to invest USD 40bn”

“We see the country becoming an even bigger oil and gas hub for the whole of West Africa because these largefacilities can only be built and operated in Nigeria.

“We definitely could see a shift from Asian shipyards. If you have a look at the coastline of West Africa it is incredible how few facilities and infrastructure to support the oil and gas industry. Nigeria is a major producer of oil.

“We’re following the same model as Brazil. The trajectory we are on is predictable – it is certain – and once these facilities are built we can raise sustained output.”

Redoil:
Gej has contributed the most since the founding of nigeria. Obj squanderd over £16 billion and achieve nothing.

What exactly did Jonathan contribute?
By the way, that $16 billion lie is getting so tired.
What was appropriated from the excess crude account was about $5 billion and he basically built or paid for almost all the power stations in the country.

Stealer oduah revolution complete.

This man get mouth sha. He perfectly defined Nigeria in the first and second paragraph.

JingoOAU:
I hope Ajimobi is watching Fashola....he should try and replicate same in IBadan to be specific....iwo road to alakia is the headquarters of refuse in Yorubaland...he should do something

Possible.that is, if people start paying appropriate taxes

SkyBlue1:
It is a federal parastatal. No ethnic group has any inherent "right" to demand the chairman should come from it. Now if you can prove the appointments are purposefully biased or prejudiced to prevent somebody from place A from getting it over somebody from place B, then we can have an adult conversation.

Na our oil lagoon. We are getting there soon.

Not being leveraged is not singularly a sign of success in a modern world. It is what you do with the available resources ( including credit) that can be mobilised to invest in the future.
Information like payment of salary does not show indices such as

1 the number and quality of schools
2 pupil enrolment
3 poverty levels
4 employment figures
5 Hospital etc

Hmm.
Nigeria has always been corrupt but Jonathan government took corruption to a different planet

That woman is a disaster

Dumb talk

What you should pay attention to is Algeria and libya

Look at their foreign reserve.

The best description ever

When despotic and conservative governments all over Africa are openly mocking you, you know something is wrong.

there is one word to use to describe Abuja,
WASTE.

A waste of yesterday
A waste of today
A waste of tomorrow

You want to know how to develop a country?
Not much different from how you grow a business.
You channel your spending on things that brings in more wealth.
Education, health and prioritised critical infrastructure.
Emphasis on "PRIORITIES "
Camberra in Australia was built from scratch, it is to Australia what abuja will never be to nigeria
As much as they have spent on abuja, it still remains the least viable place in the country.
Watch.
