Maybe there's a structural explanation to this, but i do not know CCECC will be punishing people in the name of "Pedestrian bridge"

Currently seeing the one being constructed in front of LASU, and i can't imagine myself walking such a distance.

They should make these designs simple, abeg



I still don't get it.... pedestrian overpass in the 21st century . in a densely populated/high foot traffic area. What happen to traffic lights?... stop signs? ... if it's to get across an expressway why not build a flyover? It must be old men stuck in the past that are making decisions. Why make the elderly... the handicapped... the pregnant ... the ones with heavy loads ... the sick ... all go through this unnecessary mountain climbing exercise?

Wike has the right mindset to end the insecurity..... he has the balls and is not afraid of anyone. In fact ... the big boys are afraid of him. I said before ... put up ransom and even their parents will turn them in. I'm almost sure it's this one's closest associate turned him in. Wike is going to squeeze every bit of information out of him .... before wasting him.

Politics / Re: Presidential Aides Defend Inclusion Of Tinubu's sons on State Visit To Qatar by Originalsly: 12:34am On Feb 28
2mch:

What you are posting is nothing. Trumps Son-inlaw was unofficial foreign minister when he was President. His daughter and sons had more say than the VP and nothing has happened to them till date. Nothing is happening to Hunter either. Trump is just being witchhaunted but he will still become the President of America.

I will not support Tinubu appointing his son’s in any capacity. But just occupying empty seats in private jet is not really a big deal. When their father is on official visits they will probably stay in the same house and eat the same meals. I don’t see the big deal.


Trump's son can have as much say as he wants ... can jet in and out whenever and wherever he wants.... but just can't be on taxpayers expense.... not even a meal. I hear you ... you don't see the big deal if there are empty seats on the jet .... I guess you... the President and a lot of politicians see eye to eye .... and we wonder why the corruption continues.... is not a big deal.

If juju and money ritual can really bring money ... then why do they charge for the ritual? I strongly believe money ritual is used as a cover for those who get rich through fraud .... kidnapping .... extortion ... drug trafficking... sale of human parts and other criminal activities.

gidgiddy:


Since the Supreme Court has said that Kanu's bail should not have been revoke since he fled for his life and did not jump bail, the High Court should reinstate his bail let the man go home

How can the authorities invade a man's house to kill him, he flees for his life, then you say he jumped bail? Do dead people stand trial?


Bail is guarantee that the accused will show up on the set court date. If the accused does not show up .... the bail is revoked. If he does not show jp....he immediately becomes a fugitive. This is how it is worldwide. Did he jump bail? Yes/No? ... case closed. We too like explain.

They should have done autopsy too to medically establish cause of death


This thread was posted in March 2020 ... the month COVID-19 was declared a pandemic. It is interesting to note there was no test available for the virus ... so what test did they use? The virus was in the UK at the time and it is likely she contracted it. The virus at that time was really deadly ... I'm talking from experience ... got it in February ... nothing compares ...so of she died I would believe it was because of it. Autopsy?... to find out cause of death? ... have you ever heard of any autopsy carried out to determine cause of death was COVID-19? Autopsy was prohibited by WHO .

"They did not feed me because they did not have food themselves to eat. I was urinating often so they gave me banana leaves and it stopped".


Hmmmm .... interesting. This may very well be the treatment for an enlarged prostate. I do believe for every natural ailment there is a natural cure. It is sad that our ancestors know of the cures and have been passing down thus knowledge for generationsss ... but we are now not only turning our backs on them ... but condemning them since there is no clinical proof of their efficacy... and are turning to pharmaceuticals which we accept without question.

Hmmm ... and we want to know why people seek medical attention abroad. I'm almost sure she was pregnant but greed would not make the doctors say so. There is money to make in tests ... tests they are not qualified to do . I just hope her father file criminal charges against the doctors involved and he uses his money and connection to make sure they remain in prison for the rest of their lives . I'm almost sure she is not the first victim. Who knows.... hope they check if both her kidneys are intact.

How is it sabotage ?... transparency is now sabotage? ... letting the masses know what the FG is negotiating on our behalf? ... what deals it is making behind our backs? We are our biggest problem.

Going to Qatar.... bilateral trade and investments and sharing of technologies and whatever else .... what will they be getting from us? ... what will we be getting from them? If you ask me... they will be going to invite them to exploit Nigeria.

Obrigardo:


Russian unpaid propagandist at it again.

Anything to make the maga cultists and the killer putin hordes to trash the American military might.

I believe this propagandist posts were quite the opposite when Criminal trump was in power, because he was killer putins used and useful idiot.


But this propagandist silently sidestepped the downing of a $300m Russian reconnaissance aircraft by Ukrainian forces and the mass destruction of military facilities INSIDE of russia by Ukrainian drones and seperatist forces INSIDE of russia.


He wants you to think American military is weak and that russian military might is the greatest in the world. And the putin-allinged nl agent will be licking his fingers to push this to the homepage - to satisfy the Putin and anti-America crowds with massive cognitive dissonance.

Is this report true? ... if yes ... then why is it propaganda? Typical "if you don't like the message attack the messenger". Why didn't you open a thread about the downing of a $300 Russian aircraft that you know of? Is it not also free for you to open a thread? I really don't get it why someone would be sooo upset with anyone posting anything that shows the US is not perfect.

@ topic ... we need to consider that almost every aircraft accident makes the news in the US . We need to ... in this case ... consider the number of military aircrafts that are in the air on a daily basis. If we should somehow get the average number of flight hours per day by US military aircrafts and compare it with other countries ... I'm almost sure the US would double the total of all countries combined. They fly a lot more and we should expect accidents more frequently than other countries. They are even flying more often now and taking more risks since they are rushing to churn out more pilots and a larger airforce to take part in their ever increasing involvement in conflicts abroad. They have a problem attracting recruits ... have lowered the requirements and increased bonuses so why would we not expect more accidents? At a rate of even two accidents per month .... I'll consider it verrry low.

Family / Re: My 13 Years Old Has Become Terrible! I Want To Send Her Back To Nigeria by Originalsly: 11:30am On Feb 24
Bro.... this is nothing new. What took you so long to reach out? ... were you hoping it was just a phase? She is well aware of her rights and power over you as a parent. Did you not notice she had a problem with your wife?... that resentment can only get worse over time ... as it has. This can seriously affect children and they often retaliate by living recklessly... which seems to be in this case. She expects the same love and attention given to her by her mother .... and to make matters worse ... she likely feels others are more loved than her. Most likely .... she is running with boys .... her way to find love and attention ... and almost sure she is sexually active ... very active. With this generation... she is also probably doing drugs. I believe taking away her TV will only make matters worse .... no phone... no TV ... what is she coming home early to do? ... with her enemies?
Where is her mother? ... how long has she been removed from Nigeria? ... does she have friends there? ... would she be in a safe environment if she goes back? What about schooling? Cover these points before sending her back. You'll have to send her back through deception .... can't let her know it is your intention. Most common is to take her on vacation .... two weeks ... you return unannounced in a week or few days with her passport.

because he was murdered and a secret burial will foreclose any possibility of an autopsy which will reveal the cause of death


It's the same thing the West did for COVID-19 deaths ... autopsies were prohibited. On this matter the lengths the West is going over the death of not even their citizen makes me want to believe he was indeed a spy ... a major spy. Why are they so sure from Day 1 that he was murdered?

I don't understand why you people that hate Jews/Israel so much and want to destroy and exterminate them, are the ones to decide or determine who is a true Jew and who is not!
Don't you feel ashamed of doing that?


Again..... you're still confused... Jews ... the ones guided by the Torah ... do not identify with Israel nor say they are Israelis. They have said so.... not I. They are the ones orchestrating the protests against Israel. Are these really God's people? .. that He brought ti his blessed country? Really? .... todays Sodom and Gomorrah you are supporting....passionately .... makesme wonder.

You lie bad!
It is the Arabs that want to take over the land of the Jews, because of how the Jews lost the land to the Roman empire hundreds of years ago.
The land is called Judea and Samaria in the Bible and it belongs to Israel.
The British are the ones that described the place as ''West Bank'' (of River Jordan), thousands of years after the Jews had lived, owned ruled in the land with many kings and prophets!

Can you mention one ''king'' of Palestinian origin that ruled on that land!?


Trace the history of the Zionists ... they are Europeans... no history of ever being in the Mid East. Like the Nazis ... they are a group that wanted to have a country of Whites only... preserve their race.... same as Hitler... but Hitler had a country .. they did not. They were even trying to have the British give them land in Uganda to form that country. The British turned them down. They changed strategy and decided to use the Torah to achieve the same aim... clamoring for a country where all the Jews will settle as prophesied. This they sold to the British and Americans and they agreed and carved out a piece of Palestine in 1948 and named it Israel. Jews been already living there amongst the Palestinians for centuries. The one who pushed for the formation of Israel was a man named Zion .... an atheist and bigot. Ask yourself.... if these are God's people .... why is homosexuality openly rampant in God's country? Why is it that Jews ... the ones who follow the Torah are persecuted in Israel?

Anyone with half of a brain can figure out the Israelis/Zionists are not of God ... that Israel is much closer to Sodom and Gomorrah than Jerusalem . Don't be caught up in a name ... learn to discern.

Abeg allow Israel 🇮🇱 and Palestine to sort out their differences,


No doubt.

The same people whose lands are being taken over by the foreign herdsmen are the same people who are wildly supporting Israel for doing the same thing the herdsmen are doing to them.

You can see the speck in your brother's eye but you can't see the log in your own.
