Jarus:
LMAO @ serious like National Assembly.

I agree with you. In fact, I enjoy the lighter posts more than the serious posts. I also try to lighten up sometimes. Have you ever come across me booking space or doing ftc? I have done a couple of times

When you try to 'lighten up' (sarcasm) , people often misunderstood you.

Baba GO Adeboye preach with high sense of calmness. ;DBaba GO Adeboye preach with high sense of calmness.

When they are in government, they can't pay salary. is it when they are out that they will pay. I pity this party.

Ahmad Nasir el rufai of APC

Just click like for your prefer candidate.

Who is Donald Ekpo?

Jarus:
Congrats Dapolam for winning HOR seat in Oyo state in last week election.

I remember in 2011 when his bid to HoR failed, the way he engaged NLer is commendable. Congrat to him

Jarus:
40% in Ekiti is good result. Fayose boasted APC won't get 25%.

The difference in absolute figure is 50k. We will recover that in Osun.

The gap already covered with Daura LGA

Jarus:
Interesting.

Interesting is under statement, I need to consult Prof Pius Akinsanmi or kperpgi for the appropriate word to use.

maclatunji:
Can she drive votes for APC?

Gbemi, just like Obj may not be able to win a seat for anybody, but any candidate will prefer them being with them than against them.

Edwin Clark don't deserve to be on the list. He can't win a seat for anybody.

After TAN has TANish his electoral value, it is only wise for Mr President to take his destiny (campaign) in to his hand. Did I hear you say it is too late?

The way he answer the question remimd me of 'oga at the top'

That was the book I used to learn the spelling of EXERCISE BOOK. (Ede X Ede Remi Coni Iya Segun Elere Bolu, Odabo Odabo Kayode)

Eight Public Facilities That Have Gone Extinct In Abuja


Nigeria’s capital city, Abuja, is deteriorating and the meagre infrastructure are going extinct.By Emmanuel Ogala

Since 2009 when infrastructural development peaked in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital city, the city has witnessed continued decline in public infrastructure development and an extinction of existing ones.

These facilities were meant to make the Nigerian capital comparable to capital cities worldwide, and also enable residents enjoy the benefits of living in modern city. However, many of them are now defunct.

Here is a list of eight public facilities that no longer exist in the city of Abuja.

CT Call centre (09-4603600-9)

Abuja city had a call centre that responded to enquiries, listened to complaints and took down suggestions. Although the call centre office still exists, with Jumai Ahmadu as head, they no longer take calls. The call centre infrastructure is now dysfunctional.

Public Wi-Fi
In 2006, the Federal Capital Territory Authority (FCTA) and Suburban Broadband Limited (b2) entered a $5 million partnership to develop a city-wide Wi-Fi service in Abuja.

The pilot phase of the project deployed six hot spots in the city, at – Millennium Park; FCDA (Federal Capital Development Authority) Secretariat in Area 1; Model Secondary School, Maitama; National Children’s Park and Zoo, Asokoro; Kadanya Street, Life Camp; and Old Federal Secretariat, Garki, Area 1. Up till 2009, you could still access free wireless internet services at the Millennium Park. The project did not continue and the services have been shut down.

Traffic lights

A larger proportion of the robots installed to control traffic in Abuja have broken down. They are neither replaced nor maintained.

Nowadays, traffic wardens (police, beggars or concerned Nigerians) control traffic at major junctions on the streets of Abuja. In some instances the wardens are absent and drivers use their discretion to safely navigate junctions.

Road signs and directions

Abuja is fondly described as the fastest growing city in Africa by its officials; however the city is practically un-navigable by untrained minds.

The city, unlike others around the world, lacks user friendly road signs. In the few areas where road signs currently exist, a road user would have sped past it before decoding its directions.

Also, roads change frequently in the city due to construction works and fear of Boko Haram, but city officials have failed to update the signs. A great percentage of the existing few have also suffered serious wear and tear.

Queen’s taxi
https://premiumtimesng.com/dev/wp-content/files/2012/08/Abuja-Queens-taxi-back-150x150.jpg
Once upon a time, Abuja city had London style Queen’s taxi, ferrying passengers between the streets of Maitama and Wuse market. The remains of these taxis are parked in a garage popular for old public transport vehicles along Kubwa road.

Street lights

The current minister of FCT, Bala Mohammed, once told a senate committee that lighting up street lights in Abuja was contracted out to different (energy) companies. According to the minister, the street lights could not rely on electrical energy supplied by government’s energy company, the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).

Despite the use of generators, street lights are rare and erratic on Abuja streets at night. Street lights are only stable in high end areas of the city

Elrufai Buses
https://premiumtimesng.com/dev/wp-content/files/2012/08/abuja-urban-red-buses.jpg
Back in the days, 2009 and earlier, hundreds of public buses, the greens and the reds, lined roads to Abuja’s three gateway suburbs, transporting workers to and fro the city centre. These days, only a few of the red buses still manage to work two of the routes. The greens are completely extinct.

Elrufai taxi
https://premiumtimesng.com/dev/wp-content/files/2012/08/Abuja-taxi-150x150.jpg
These Peugeot 306 wagons, also imported in hundreds, were managed by Abuja Leasing Company (ALC). Some were sold out on hire purchase agreements.

Although its services were expensive, they provided the most comfortable and secure taxi services in the city. Nowadays, both the ones retained by government and those sold out to private investors are rare sightings.

However, broken down remains of the taxi are visible around the Utako office of ALC.

Another reasons why Kaduna want el rufai.
APC all the way.

There are only 2 issues at PDP rallies. Buhari and Railway.

In 2015, these will still be the same promises they will dangle before us to capture our votes

So is 4 years I made this post 4 years ago, Mr President, this is not time for promises.
