FrenchyL: Please where is Beef?

Beaf now uses another ID known to few of us.

@Afam,
Your ban ban is making threads dull. It is never 100% that a thread discuss will be the same as the content. Let people express themselves as they choose to and stop acting like Ohakim aka power drunk.

Just go the Travel Section and see how Justwise has used ban to kill the once bubbling section that helped lots of genuine people sort thier immigration and travel issues.

Anonymous still exist and NL is not immune from DDS. Maybe you should go to youtube and take some tutorials on how to moderate a forum.

@topic,
Anyone notice the source is tribune?

mathskill: If we leaved in a country were impunity wasn't celebrated,this celebrities wouldn't have participated in this charade.A good analogy i would give is the death of the Nurse in the case of the prank call by two australian DJ's impersonating the queen.Businesses immediatly withdrew their sponsorship of programmes and advertorials from 2dayfm distancing themselves from the DJ's employer ..In Nigeria Dana air through undue negligence bothering on mass killing is being courted by gutter celebrities.May God save this country.

I ask again, of all the road transporters that have killed millions of Nigerians, have we asked for the ban of those transporters? Do Nigerians not still patronize these transporters?

And may I ask you where you got your information from that Dana Air was negligent in the crash of her MD80? As far as we know, AIB is yet to publish her findings.

ehie: why did Dana air crash?was it due to cost saving measures?or mechanical failure?we do not know till date,if u board and die,will ur family be compensated?you are not sure,common sense isnt that common,like mario puzp said "fools die",u guys are so quick to waste ur lives,if u fly dana and die,na u sabi

If you fly because you think your family will be compensated when your flight fail to make it then i feel so sorry for you!

Some of you fly B747 by BA to Lagos from London, same with the Virgin A340 without blinking an eye but if only you knew the true state of those planes, the tongue in cheek engineering clearance to fly they sometimes give to the planes you wont be talking the way you have on this thread.

blackpanda: To be honest, y'all supporting this celebration but be fcking stupd! If ur mum or dad or brother roasted in that crash I doubt u'll have the guts to come out here and pour ur trash!
That said, am not advocating they be grounded for life (since no airline is really that good in naija), but for heavens sake, have some respect for the dead! U ride 150 people to their early graves, fg turns the other way and merely slaps u on d wrist, yet u go ahead to celebrate in the faces of motherless, childless and persons that have automatically become orphans!
That's not just sad, its wicked! This celebration is uncalled for. It shows no remorse on their part. In a sane society, this will never be tolerated.
But then again, there are so many retaards on this site praising the wicked act!
If they don't celebrate, what will happen??

Dude, life has only respect the living and honour the dead. Dana Air has paid her dues due toFG negligence in handling of the issue.
Should any investigation indict Dana air for operational incompetence, then there might be reason to cry foul in allowing them to resume flight. But to date, none has been established. Beside if you think the best way to "respect" the dead is by grounding Dana, i think that would be stupidity. People like you have formed pressure groups all over the world keep aviation authorities on their toes to make sure they are not complacent in their discharge of their duty. How about you doing same in nigeria? Surely that would be a better way to honour the Dana crash victims ? ??

[quote author=samm_miey]wot a freaking gibberish,owing to none of ur family members was among the victims!?...go find sumwia siddon soak gari[/quote]Going by your reasoning, every transporter whose vehicled has killed Nigerians on the motorway should be grounded forever because the families of those that died can only keep on living whe n the transporter seizes to exist

Use your head to think for once.

kolokolobi: I would have thought the result of crash investigation should have come out first before they are allowed to take to the skies again. What if the report indicated culpability on the part of Dana management or need for remedial measures to be put in place or or ....I dont just get it. As for the celebrities who did nothing legally wrong to have allowed their notoriety to be used and ofcourse paid for the publicity stunt I hope they won't feel bad if they lost a loved one in such circunstances and other go the way they have chosen to go...just thinking. On the other hand as a loved school song goes....SERVICE TO THE LIVING HONOUR TO THE DEAD.

Sorry it does not work that way. Once fleet airworthiness is established and operational incompetence is not found, the airliner ought to be allowed to keep flying. So as far as Dana Air is concerned, they should not have been grounded by FG for 7months without any cause.

2legit2qwt: Just wow! This is wrong on so many levels. They shouldn't even be anywhere near Nigerian airspace again or at least for a very long time. This is one of the many cases where i can say the Nigerian government is non-functional. BP oil in the US is still picking up its pieces and struggling to repair its damaged reputation. Dana air killed over 150 Nigerians and less than a year after, celebrities are invited to kick off operations wtf

Now I know the airline I won't be flying

Pure ignorance! The fact that an airliner crash one of its aircraft is no reason for them to stop flying. Just like FG, we let reasoning be abandoned and act on sentiments.

As far as I know, dana air is yet to be indicted for gross negligence in her duty in keeping her fleet airworthy hence I see no reason why they should not be allowed to fly.

In 2009 or so, air france from sao palo, Brazil crashed into the atlantic due to a pressure alttitude probe failure that led to other human errors by the pilot. EASA and the French authorities did not ground air france. Loud mouthed Nigerians didnot stop flying with Air france. No body called air france a flying coffin! Same goes with BA B777 crash in Heathrow in 2007. BA we know has an A320 that is well over 23years old flying! That said, Airframes are designed for to last as long as 35years so 23years is still some 15years away from retirement.

Please lets channel our energyon doing the right thing which in this case getting the FG to fund the NCAA and get the right people in the right places so that our aviation sector can be corruption free and kept safe.

The last time I checked MD80 still has one of the best safety records put there amongst other aircraft and Dana to my knowledge is yet to be indicted on gross incompetence in her discharge as an airline operator.

JomoGbomo2: Our Standards are quite LOW!!!

We dont even know what we deserve anymore, I weep for NIGERIANS

[size=28pt]MEND jomogbomo don enter Nairaland [/size]

Seun: Shouldnt helping the poor (as opposed to oppressing and tormenting them) be a important component of any plan to make Nigeria better? How can we claim that Nigeria is getting better if things are actually getting worse for the poor among us? Don't the masses matter anymore?

Maybe helping to poor means you vote 1trillion Naira for security and bombs start flying everywhere Wake up from your deep slumber, Fashola has shown others how to govern. Even Oshiomhole you referred to always make reference to Fashola when it comes to governance that impacts the masses.

In a sane clime, it would not take much effort for Fashola to become the next president, but in a society like Nigeria where ethnicity and religion is used as a political weapon of division, it would be a tall order for Him to become president.

The impact of Fashola's government is felt beyond the borders of Nigeria, hence the several brilliant articles that have been written about Him and His administration by journalist outside of Nigeria.

@OP,
God is everywhere, but the manifested presence of God is NOT everywhere.

solomon111: The state receives security vote from the FG,so i don't see what is wrong with further equipping the army in your state,especially when the state is notorious for kidnappings and other social vices.

It is wrong for the state to be funding a federal institution like the Army! It further confirms what many believe that GEJ's government is a failure.

[quote author=PROUD-IGBO]^^^It's all so annoying; about $6 billion voted for security, yet they expect a cash-strapped state like Anambra to buy them vehicles ?.....what the fuc/k have they done with all that money!?

And what's the Obi of Onitsha doing there?[/quote]Well its a win win for Anambra now? Why are you complaining about the security vote? Abi GEJ no bi one of una own? The $6billion security vote is for Northerners FYI!

Someone should tell Nyanko that as state governor, He has the power to buy out that company and get it running again! When will our leaders start using the brains God gave them? If dangote is tired of running the company, surely there are emergency measures the House of Assembly can put in place to ensure the state buys that company and get it functional again.

I will start by revoking the Certificate of Occupancy of the company and make the land a government owned! One man can't make over 5,000 people remain in hunger!

Paul John: While I commend the FG on this, I think it'll be better to spend more on accident preventive infrastructures. Accident Investigation laboratory is less important if accident occurrence is at it limit.
$5.5million will go a long way in construction of standard federal roads that are the major cause of accident to the common Nigerians.
I guess the accident investigation laboratory been inaugurated is meant for top government officials due to accident some governors have been involved in of recent and not for ordinary Nigerians.

Plus, inauguration of this won't bring back dead but'll only reveal details of the cause and a little idea of how future occurrence can be averted and not taking care of the primary cause I.e. bad roads, ineffective communication system, sub standard airport etc.

@ bold,
Part of the accident prevent technique is understanding why previous ones happened and putting in place a mitigation. If FG is able to pull this off with any bribe and corruption, it would be a plus for the aviation sector.

knowledge4: If the story is true, why have the poster and other victims not reported to the police?
The story must be fake.
ABC remains the best transport company in Nigeria.
Road robberies also affect other transport companies, so that is not strange if an ABC bus falls victim.Even that is very rare with ABC. My over 100 trips via ABC on the Lagos -Owerri route were night journeys and the buses were never stopped by robbers on the notorious route especially the Ore-Onitsha portion.

Which police? ..eyi.. Nigeria Police is I mean.. is is... oh dear don't even go there!

awodman: Guy stop d ranting..did U̶̲̥̅̊ even bother reading the links he provided..wanted τ̅☺ engage with you but saw U̶̲̥̅̊ claim τ̅☺ be based I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅ Britain(Đa̶̲̥̅̊τ̲̅ means no need 4 Đa̶̲̥̅̊τ̲̅ )

I do not CLAIM. I live in the UK and I transverse several countries every year including Nigeria! I am not a stranger to Nigeria and I was there during the general elections to vote and I was there in 2011 and of recent.

I know you are struggling to accept the truth that those of us that are graced by God to see what He God has made beauty of humans (without corruption and attitudinal incompetence) can make of the earth.

Folks like you have been deceived for over 30years and are still being deceived by mediocre of a FG. Go back and read that article and tell me where it mentions feeder sub stations!

Get your facts right and be honest with yourself. That it your brother that is the president does not mean we should accept non-performance and feel at home.

A Pastor friend of mine just came back last week from visiting Lagos, Ibadan, Calabar and Jos. He took His UK born children for Holiday and He ran back after one week! His children could not understand why power would always go off and they could not comprehend the reason they had to have the sound of a generation buzzing every day in the house.

I think the problem with most of you is you have not had the opportunity to live in a sane society in your life so you do not understand what it means when we say FG's efforts are nothing but a mere show on paper.

For a government that has been working on power since 2009, by now, 2012, the masses ought to be the ones canvassing the improvement witness by the alleged revamping of the power sector. I have a blood line that lives in Delta, Spoke with the person tonight and they were on generator! Christmas day they were on generator, same when I spoke with my mum in a different state in the South South and you expect me to believe the lies you people spew on here?

As I type this to you, 01:51AM, UK time, I can take a walk to the city centre, go to the shops, even go jogging with street lights every where and I would not be thinking of hold candle and matches or touch in my pocket!

manny4life: Starting with the most recent of not too long ago - the OKADA BAN. You will not agree with, I already know, and we'll both save the argument but that policy has hurt a lot of people, economically, financially, socially, mentally, than normal.

You must have made a huge loss from the Okada toll you and your boys used to collect! chei!

spyder880: Workers were still in the airport working on that day.

Is that a cement vending shop or what Dude you should be ashamed posting pictures like these as an International Airport! Oh dear.... you guys really need to travel or as someone suggest watch documentaries of other countries industrial prowess to broaden your horizon!

[quote author=PROUD-IGBO]If you want to put an end to each region agitating and clamouring for a bit more from the centre, then the right thing to do would be to restructure the country in such a way that there's at least 80% resource control, and the centre is weakened considerably with less power over the regions/states......let everyone should answer im papa name; let states like Akwa Ibom for instance get the benefits of their God-given wealth, and states in the south east can enter into business partnerships with foreign firms/countries to sell their own oil and gas without waiting for approval from the centre; also states in the south east could build 'proper' and functional river ports for the easy evacuation and importation of goods, and team up with south south states to build an intergrated rail network and a deep-sea port at Ibaka; also, south east states would have the resources to build a world-class int'l airport in cities like Enugu, Owerri and Onitsha without having to wait for funds from the centre.

wesley80: Yep, he won just like Buhari won the NL presidential election by a landslide. Fact is Tunde Bakare -the politician- is nothing but a bloviating villain than the virtual hero he's made out to be - Get used to it!

You know Nigerians wallow in pain because they never appreciate the good among them! Face it, the man has done more for His country, can you reference what you have done for Nigeria?

balladin: Statistics are just records for your info. I won't bother myself with them cos they keep changing and who says they have a bearing on the present. S̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ trash statistics, they actually count for nothing. Records are set and broken everyday. It removes nothing from the fact that Osaze is merely average.

..see black man... when confronted with the truth.. they make reference to the future! Get real, face it.. the stats are telling you who these players and what they do on the pitch not what your sentiments wants you to believe.

You know sometimes its bitter to take the truth in especially when you believe the contrary...Ndo.. manage to accept it bro.

taharqa: OH! MY GOSH. OH! GOSH...didnt know i was trying to talk to a COMPLETE FOOOL... 1st off funkk PDP a billion times..but i was just wondering hw u know from yr base in d UK or whereva is it dat u are, dat the substations and transmissn/distributn lines i saw in my region is not real? How did u know from where u that these transmission and distribution that most of us hv watchd bn commissiond on TV is 'a film trick' Or as was reportd in d newspapers? Oh, wait! The newspapers are all ownd by d PDP!!! That's right: Dailytrust is PDP, Guardian is PDP, Vanguard is PDP. That also includes Nation (the official mouthpiece of yr political party- who also 'unfortunately' reportd same reports as these 3). PDP also controls Punch, Leadership, Sun, in fact all of them (except SR of course). No Transmission and Distribution lines and substation was built; it cudn't hv happend cos 'GEJ is clueless' ,and any person or institutn who says underwise MUST hv bn bought by d Govt Or wud 'OBVIOUSLY' be telling LIES- dis is hw u chose to respond to dat comment and dismiss d points, abi? Thats all u gat? How much farther wud HATRED for a person and BLIND PARTISAN lead an individual? Oh sorry, i almost 4get u at least made one point: that cause of the immediate collapse during that one period in Yar'adua's time was 'overheating'!! *LMAOIP*......... I apologize to myself for actuali tinking we cud get a debate going here; d nx time wud surely nt be a debate..

Thank God people like me were given brains and used it for the betterment of humanity. Flying is not a rocket science even though your GEJ has made you to believe in Nigeria presently. To show how dull you come across, the article you posted reference injection sub stations that feed national grid and not distribution sub stations that feed local feeds! Dude wake up its almost 2013.

Next time learn to type and not the trash you put up here. I have tried to engage your falsehood with factual information and even the one you posted didn't add up to your stories. Dude... get real and be honest for once!

Virgin Finder: Your written English is poor!

focus on substance and leave the chaff aside

balladin: Osaze, best player? Bros think again.

Stats speaks for itself.. like someone once said, its like a bikin, the more you look the more you see. Dude go do you own digging and tell me which other players are better!

KokoBeware: Dude I hope you don't expect a miracle or magic for electricity to be 24hrs?? What he was saying is that there is improvement and steady improvement will surely get us there : ur talking about drawing lines on screens? Do u think that happened overnight?? If there had been this progress since the time of OBJ we should have been somewhere by now.. I think GEJ is taking the power sector serious and that's all that matters...

@ bolded,
That is how you have been deceived all along! You know when a government is serious about an issue such as power. How, all the global players will be jostling to be part of the transformation because they know the huge market in Nigeria and neighbouring countries and would want to be part of it.

What you have at the moment is FG scratching the surface and failing to take the bull by the horn! You can't paddy paddy issues such as power. Get serious reforms in place like Obasanjo did with telecoms and within 5years, more than half of Nigerians will have stable power. With what is going on right now, it will take forever for that to happen. The alleged improvement you are seeing suddenly began to happen when christmas was this close! Those that not tell you its all wash? Why did Nigerians not see these improvements in Augsut? Mind you GEJ was at the sould of power projects during the Yar'dua regime so it should be bread for Him to know where the healing in needed!

Don't you think that is more sensible

#Just Saying

Does it not bother you that you still do not know the dividing line between whats the core responsibility of the Executive and that of the legislators? How many issues of national importance have they raised that the executive didn't even blink at? This is a paddy paddy government and it is only pressure from the masses that will cause them to do the right thing!

Ikwere fist son: pls dnt tel me ur chating frm d north pole b4 u tok say na snow.enemy of progres.guys we re havng 20hs of lite in my area

20hrs of Light and you are rejoicing? In a century where invisible and non-contact electricity is being developed and used, Nigerians are contented with having 20hrs of electricity daily Others have so played with this electricity of a thing that they are now reverse engineering in various forms yet our FG is business writing lines and lines of policy documents with billions of dollars missing and millions are in darkness. Dude you better wake up.. it's almost 2013
