Politics / Re: Alaoji: Another Power Plant (1074MW) Getting Ready To Be Launched In Abia State by Originalsly: 11:25am On Mar 20 |
AustineE1: Hmmmm ...... plan to bring the power plant back to life shows unity of the Igbos. Was it not unity of the Igbos that killed it the first place? 1800's village mentality alive and well in the 21st century.... people embarrassing their tribe and don't even know. |
Foreign Affairs / Re: Putin Warns NATO Of World War III by Originalsly: 5:38pm On Mar 19 |
membranus: Mere assertions. Then why not counter what I said with facts? Who invaded Iraq?... the assertion was he had "weapons of mass destruction "... were they found after the invasion? Did you realize the proliferation of weapons in Africa came after the invasion of Iraq and Libya?... that the West invaded and protected historical sites but not the weapons and ammunition depots?... and that was the source of most weapons battlefield weapons in Africa? Gather information and process it on your own instead of being an echo of propaganda. Only then would you be able to defend your view. |
Crime / Re: Wife Arrested In Kaduna State For Hiring Assassins To Kill Husband by Originalsly: 10:40am On Mar 19 |
Something is not right with this story. The counter insurgency expert is in contact with a gangster?... an assassin?... and his gang? Why did he not have them arrested? As gangsters sex they can get from anyone .... will all of the 400K do for such a task? ... if they have a mission they will carry it out. And why would the expert put it on his handle?... shouldn't it be a Police matter? The Police has no comment. I strongly believe the husband is using the "expert" to get back the money from the wife. We should hear from her. |
Foreign Affairs / Re: Putin Warns NATO Of World War III by Originalsly: 10:25am On Mar 19 |
publicenemy: The.West ... NATO ... is fanning WW3 by threatening the security of Russia. How? ... by surrounding Russia with missiles and military bases. If this is not a threat... then why does the US make it clear it will be a declaration of war if Russia puts missiles in Cuba?...or Venezuela? What has the West done to Iraq? ... to Libya? ... were they not against the laws of the international community? ... what is Israel doing in Gaza? ... is it not against the laws of the international community? How is Russia aggressive to the countries listed? How?... whatever reason you give... apply the very reasons to the West. You need to find out how many countries have puppet governments... puppets of the West.... and how many have been brought down if they refuse to be puppets. All the wars going on for the past decade .... do you realize the West has a major hand in each and every one?... that the West is the instigator and weapons provider? Name one that the West was not. The West is the one fanning WW3. I'm waiting for an intelligent and pointed response. 1 Like |

Hmmm.... it's a miracle the bus didn't swerve off the road ... that the student noticed and raised an alarm .... and another student did not panic but sprung into action and brought the bus under control. Somehow ... when people slump and die.... one question always comes to mind .... "did he take the COVID-19 shot?" 1 Like |

Civilian matter .... is it not for the Police to be involved? ... is it not the Police to maintain law and order? ... is it not for the Police to arrest and prosecute civilians? ... law breakers? If yes ... why is the military involved? ... isn't Nigeria supposed to be a democracy?... we were condemning Niger coup .... and demanding democracy be restored while we operate like we are under military rule with the military involved in civilian matters. What legal powers the military has to arrest civilians? ... do they know law to file charges? Military doing the job of Police and this is fine with us... we see nothing wrong ... or can justify it. Now we expect the military to retaliate... and the Police to stand by watch ... do nothing. 1 Like 1 Share |

Politics / Re: We Can’t Have Intervention Programmes For Poor People Without NIN – Tinubu by Originalsly: 11:04am On Mar 16 |
"Give a man fish you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish you feed him for a lifetime." It is foolish to have a policy of providing for the poor. What is the criteria for considering who is poor? ... a person earning less that N50K salary? ... a family of four earning less that N125K per month? ....what is the source of this data? How many persons will qualify and what will be the monthly cost of this programme? Is this amount available? ... is it in the budget? ... how will this amount be available each month?... and how long can it be sustained?... is the FG going to be taking out loans? I can bet my life none of this is taken into consideration... they cannot give an account and it doesn't matter because the objective is an avenue to loot and the poor will be in support. A coup needs to be carried out before this country is completely buried in debt. 1 Like 1 Share |

Why is it we never see details?... as in X amount allocated to Y construction company for Z kilometers of 4 lane highway linking Heaven to Earth .... and twice the amount for an eight lane Expressway linking Earth to Hell. How do they even arrive at these figures is not questioned. |

Hmmmmm ..... a workshop that should've been held on Zoom.... even if Nigeria was swimming in money. I say again .... only a military coup can get the country on the right track ... a coup lead by a Jerry Rawlings who will prosecute and either imprison or execute these greedy politicians. |
Agriculture / Re: FG Orders 10,000 Tractors, Signs €995 Million Financial Facility by Originalsly: 10:15am On Mar 12 |
It's nice to hear all these wonderful things the tractors can do .... but I'm still waiting to hear the terms of distribution .... who will get first preference and where they will be used. Why no details? What are the repayment terms? Tractors are used in pretty much large scale farming. Is the FG going to make land available to the farmers? ... and to the heart of the matter ... if farmers cannot operate their small farms in peace.... so often destroyed by herdsmen ... farming communities held hostage for ransom.... what will happen when they go to large scale farming? They need to investigate and find out who got paid for signing the deal with Tata and the lenders. If we fail to make payments on the loan .... does the Tata group become owners of our lands? Let's get the details of the loans first before we begin to shout "good development". |

Foreign Affairs / Re: F-35 Becomes World's First Stealth Fighter To Carry Nuclear Weapons (Photos) by Originalsly: 7:31pm On Mar 10 |
Bluearrow: That's what is sold... but what is the reality? .... nuclear weapons serves as a deterrent and is for defense. North Korea..... since acquiring nuclear weapons there are no longer military threats against it if they do not comply with what others wa t it to do. Should Iran acquire nuclear weapons the war drums will go silent. The countries that abuse conventional weapons are the ones that will abuse nuclear weapons. |
Foreign Affairs / Re: F-35 Becomes World's First Stealth Fighter To Carry Nuclear Weapons (Photos) by Originalsly: 4:54pm On Mar 10 |
Hmmmmmm ...... and Iran is not allowed to develop nuclear weapons. North Korea is a Rouge State for developing its own. Why are some free to have and others not allowed to? 2 Likes |
Health / Re: JAPA: No More Leave Of Absence For Health Workers Relocating Abroad – FG by Originalsly: 4:50pm On Mar 10 |
Putindbutt: Doesn't the leave of absence have a limit? If it's I definite I can see that is a problem. What is the difference between if someone took leave to seek greener pasture and someone who took leave to build house? How will one affect the payroll and the other wouldn't? How will one prevent others from getting employed and the other wouldn't? If there isn't a limit... then there should be one. As in .... 60 days max leave of absence. If the employee doesn't show up ... warning letter/email sent for termination if he doesn't resume work within 5 days. In this way what the person does within the leave period doesn't matter ... the focus is on their return to work. If he doesn't... he's terminated .... he's off the payroll and is replaced. Limit to leave of absence period is key. |
Health / Re: JAPA: No More Leave Of Absence For Health Workers Relocating Abroad – FG by Originalsly: 4:11pm On Mar 10 |
FreeStuffsNG: Isn't a person free to request leave of absence? That's an option ... whether to travel to test the waters or personal reasons. Why say it's a free world and dictating one must resign? I do agree with you 100% that the 5 year mandated service before being certified should be the priority. That would take care of this problem. If I were a nurse ... and want to seek greener pasture .... do I have to state my real intention? Nurses will simply say they want the time for personal reasons and japa.... and the problem remains. I'm sure nurses will not resign until they travel and settled in the new job. They may not even resign. |

humilitypays: Ukraine made it clear it wanted to join NATO and started the process. How can you say this was a suspicion? The US invaded Iraq sovereign land unprovoked on mere suspicion that they were building a doomsday bomb. This you define as evil ... but does your definition apply to the US? How can it apply to Russia when the invasion was based on fact and not suspicion? 2 Likes |

Why don't they simply cut our aid from Israel and force them to stop the genocide and sufferings? The moral Police and champion of human rights has lost its bark and bite when it comes to Israel .... on its knees begging and pleading with Israel to not stop the massacre... but to stop temporarily. The tail.wagging the dog. But don't be fooled .... why would the engineers be there to set up a temporary dock when there are ships equipped to carry out that mission? This is a front ... they are there to start working on what this war is about.... clearing out Gaza for the Ben Gurion Canal. I brought this up since Israel first announced they will clear North Gaza. As we can see.... they cleared North ... cleared South ... and now the last section they want them moved out. US engineers are there for the canal project ... not provision for humanitarian needs. 2 Likes |
Properties / Re: Houses Demolished In Eti-osa As Lagos Gov't Cracks Down On Illegal Structures by Originalsly: 11:42am On Mar 10 |
My view... certain things need to be considered: 1. Are the buildings in a prohibited area? e.g on a waterway? If yes ... such buildings should be demolished period. If the owner was given an official permit .... then the building should be fully compensated ... the official who signed off on the permit charged ... sentenced ... and fined the compensation amount or more. 2. If the buildings are not in a prohibited area ... do not violate the building codes ....and the owners have official permits then their buildings shouldn't be demolished. If they don't have official permits... or no records of permits ... demolition. Before looking into demolition they need to have their house in order... internal investigations to determine their officials who were issuing permits to build on illegal areas. Those officials need to be fished out and charged or it will be business as usual..... corruption from within. 1 Like |
