I hate to say this but we nigerians are people of simple thinking. There are so many salient points raised that have been side tracked and looking back now; the handwritting on the wall is very clear. I am afraid Mr. Donald Duke is embarking on a mission he will not be able to complete, just like the tinapa project.

The figures look very impressive but its all about risk.

This is the 8th wonder of the world.

I wish donald duke the best.

Even if it is remodelled 20 times it will still stink.

if its true that borishade has been sacked then he should be arrested by the police.

The minister should be sued to court for misrepresentation of facts by the management of ADC.

This is sad.

there will be election by the special grace of God.

See wetin igbo man dey do; chei chineke, tomorrow dem go talk say marginalization; they have destroyed that state.

In a country where unemployment is very high, any job that pays 40, 000 a month is very over subscribed then this man dey yarn 300 000, o boy no vex, just go enter bush. If any man see bank job or any other job better grab am as it is not easy.

This is a very good contribution but all your reference web sites are not opening. Please do something about it.

we have been praying all along, its time for action and common sense.

And please this "God knows best", "God gives and He takes" is all B*&L S**T plain nonsense. We should do what we are meant to do which in this case was not done.

At least we now know it was a Pilot's error so the aviation minister said. Dead man no dey talk

I used to beat my chest that our generation will be the last to have memory of military coups but now am not so sure again. The level of insecurity in the country is at an all time high. In ekiti, in anambra, in plateau there is total confusion, these politicians are just running loose without direction, look at the ministry of education, so much disenchantment is setting in, our leaders are not saying much. Come to the south - south, flood everywhere, bad federal roads and the so called leader are talking in billions of naira. How many plane crashes did we have in the time of ABACHA and ABDULSALAM combined? God forbid but if the political class don't put their house in order anything can happen.

Air travel might be the most convenient form of transport in nigeria but not necessarily the safest. All those cases you cited is localized in that mad place called lagos. Here in Port Harcourt, no vehicle has gone into any river or lagoon, neither do we have any cases of drunks, infact the number of police check points and traffic jams won't permit such. If you decide to run 160 on our bad east west road, then you have yourself to blame and by the way if the driver of the vehicle is misbehaving you can ask him to drop you by the wayside

In the case of aeroplane, i hear its now an avenue for prayers, that the magnitude of vibrations especially during take off and landing is so high that speaking loud in known and unknown tongues is not an option. You cannot ask any questions and the pilot cannot disembark his passengers in mid air. All the airlines in nigeria use aeroplanes that will never be allowed to fly in the united states, england or canada.

Starting is one thing, finishing and producing is another.

what are the pros and cons of benz 190?

they have just burnt the government lodge, this people are really destroying all their infrastructure.

materialism - the act of acquiring luxurious goods which is beyond our means of living. A student whose father and mother's combined salary is less than N30000 per month buys a camera phone worth N40000 or an arsenal jersey for N15000. This is the root cause of corruption.

Where is the aviation minister in all of this? I think our roads no matter how bad are much safer than those flying corpses; what a shame.

there are many types of changes.

i hope lady b does not want to use virgin men to do "medicine"

this is fun

our problem is materialism

At old glory,

someone wants to sell a benz 190 for 400k here in Nigeria, what is your opinion?

The only reason why you should not return to nigeria is your non nigerian accessory; even if you earn 2x that, she just can't fit in the motherland.
