Jobs/VacanciesRe: Can A 47-year-old Man Still Get A Job? by pacespot(m): 2:39am On May 26, 2021
Everything na packaging even if you're sixty. Just find a specialized skill that you can offer the company. You're not going to apply for entry level position of course.

What's the identity of the person, Fulani's, hausa, or igbo? A lot is happening in this country, so we still have suicide bombers?
PoliticsRe: Ibeju-Lekki Police station Was not Burnt, Hoodlums Burnt 5 Vehicles (Pictures) by pacespot(m): 1:23pm On May 25, 2021
ivolt:
Skyscrapers aren't cheap. Your "hundreds of thousands of citizens" can't afford them.
If you mean the government should build and give them out freely, at whose expense?
Skyscrapers didn't even solve the New York homeless problem. Tens of thousands are on the street.
What about public and private partnership, nobody is going to rent the skyscraper as a whole, each skyscraper can have up to 500 apartments or above, and then the stardards for the apartments can also vary. Mind you, the cost of building one skyscraper with 500 apartments is far lesser than the costs of building each apartment as a separate building. This is conserving Lagos lands for more industrial uses. I bet you things will get to this level in years to come when government will have to demolish residential houses, even big mansions in exclusive areas like lekki, ikoyi, even banana island, to free more space for industrial settlements. Lagos is a commercial city unlike other cities in the country, because it gives Nigeria access to sea. So land grabbing is not advisable in such a place for individuals, high-rise buildings like skyscrapers are often used to contain influx of traffic in such a city, a situation where you can have up to hundreds of companies in just one building. Those who are acquiring lands in Lagos and building mansions now will face this reality about decades to come. It is good to go to a remote area to build your mansion there. The development of Lagos should mirror that of New York, Hong Kong or Tokyo. When Nigeria becomes an industrialized economy, you will see that the current traffic in Lagos is nothing compared to those cities I've mentioned.
PoliticsRe: Ibeju-Lekki Police station Was not Burnt, Hoodlums Burnt 5 Vehicles (Pictures) by pacespot(m): 4:41am On May 25, 2021
Police again, presently, being a policeman in the south East is worse that being a soldier in the sambisa forest. When will this fight between police and okada riders end in Lagos? Instead of LASG to focus on providing decent and affordable housing units to the people, they want to ban okada that provides means of livelihood to hundreds of thousands of citizens. Lagos should be a city of skyscrapers like New York, Hong Kong, or Shanghai if they want want to decongest the city. This will solve many housing needs.

PoliticsRe: Lagos And Ogun Launch Joint Development Commission by pacespot(m): 3:38pm On May 24, 2021
Exactly, Lagos should be Ogun, Ogun should be Lagos, they need to decentralize some congested projects going on in Lagos to some neighbouring states. The partnership with Ondo State through the ibeju lekki linking the Ore ports project should also be considered.

PoliticsRe: Gunmen Attack Ugbuodo Police Station In Ebonyi, Two Killed by pacespot(m): 12:02pm On May 24, 2021
DDDEnterprises:
Perhaps, all these killings have its advantages

- it can help reduce population

- it can help reduce unemployment. When policemen die, they'll recruit other jobless and interested people to replace them

- They may continue to kill until they some time kill all the corrupt people that are destroying the nation.

But it's not a good idea though. We should stop all these now and seek better ways to solve our problems.
What are the better ways, you don't even know what it takes to unsit corrupt government, it takes bloodshed and sacrifice, that is why people have to make the right choices when choosing their leaders, or when the chosen leaders are going astray, public prosecutors are angels in making for saving people from disasters like this, if corrupt leaders are prosecuted by public institution, it will lessen the dangerous precedent of more such leaders getting into offices, but do we have such institutions in this country? As the corruption is allowed to spread, it touches everybody in the society, and the effect is really disastrous. If you say you are not in government so you should be less concerned about what happen there, you should take a look at what led to EndSARS protest, even going about your private business peacefully will be difficult if the society is deeply corrupt. I can go on and on about many negative effects of corruption on a society.

That nkeshi blessing is a slut, I don't know why igbo women are too quick to call a man broke, if we look at it, she might not be as rich as this guy except the money she collects from her Aristo works. Imagine rubbishing other people's cars by calling them "bread nylon" because Davido bought a Rolls Royce, I'm sure she will jump on any opportunity to have a doggy with Davido in that Rolls Royce
PoliticsRe: Banning Open Grazing: We Stand With Malami — Arewa Youths by pacespot(m): 4:15pm On May 23, 2021
More like saying malami has more power to the southern lands than the southern governors elected by the people. How did we get this far with these people? One thing I've come to realize is that, the attitude of opression exhibited by most public office holders in this country has its root cause in these Fulani's jan.ja.weed. They have infected this country with bad leadership with their marauding and nihilistic approach to governance, because all they understand is oppress, kill and destroy. So some southern leaders have also taken after them. Left to the southern politicians alone, people can well take to the street and change the course of their leadership and demand accountability from those elected. But Fulani's natural instincts to conquer, oppress and control are mirroring the path of dictatorship in Saudi Arabia monarchy and Islamic doctrines.

If you're wondering what those guys without any known source of living but living flashy lives on social media do for living, this is it: drugs and Yahoo. Money is not easily made through a legitimate source, let no one deceive you with inspirational talk. Most of those successful people you see have something within which is keeping the fire burning.

PoliticsRe: Fact Check: Late COAS Didn't Say "Over My Death Will Biafra, Oduduwa Emerge" by pacespot(m): 1:28pm On May 22, 2021
It is actually a pathetic thing that some people are celebrating an unfortunate thing like this, someone died by accident and you're rejoicing, this could be you next time, this could happen to anyone. If the late army chief had died in a war with IPOB, yes, that could be seen as a victory. And the man might have been set up by some army among his ranks because he was fighting for a just thing.
FoodRe: The N16k Prawn, Plantain Served In A Lagos Hotel (Photo, Video) by pacespot(m): 7:07am On May 22, 2021
The truth is that Nigeria is a classist society. We show class over ephemeral things like how rich we are and use that to reinforce a sense of our empty self. People don't know the reason why they call black people monkeys, because you can actually steal a monkey from his owner using banana, and people expect a monkey to be at least wiser than other animals like a goat because it is a primate.
TravelRe: Is Lagos Becoming Nigeria's Answer To Miami, Florida? by pacespot(m): 6:49am On May 22, 2021
pacespot:
The pictures below are the cities which are the commercial nerve centres of the countries: New York and Hong Kong. This is how a city planing is done in advanced countries. The current city planning in Lagos is a hogwash, where one person will acquire one hundred square mentre of land to build a mansion. Lagos is a commercial city because it gives Nigeria access to sea, this is not where you go to do land grabbing. We will soon come to the realization of this fact when Nigeria becomes a more industrialized nation. Conserving spaces within the metropolis of Lagos will become an utmost priority, this is why high-rise buildings like skyscrapers that can accommodate five hundreds apartments and above will become the only option. You can also have hundreds of companies occupying one building. in advanced countries like USA, people go to remote areas to acquire land to build their mansion, not in commercial areas like New York and Chicago.

PoliticsRe: Governors Rooting For State Police Are Inviting Anarchy – IGP by pacespot(m): 7:26am On May 21, 2021
So governors will use state police to fight political opponents but the president cannot use police to fight opposition too? I stop seeing these northerners as rational thinkers when a whole AGF compared banning of open grazing to banning of spare parts selling. Their problem with this state police is that they want to take guns away from the hands of southerners as far as possible so as to use their Fulani's foot soldiers and terrorists to kill and conquer the region. You see that they often frown on any idea of southerners carrying arms, look at how many ramblings by Miyetti Allah when the south west governors proposed the amotekun. These Fulani's are a ticking time bomb for the rest of this country, we need to decentralize the military too as soon as possible.

The senate president lawan said it recently when he was commenting on restructuring, saying "federal government did not ask states for their IGR, so what are they restructuring?"
