geeez: The tunnels are more than 5ft deep. Can't be less than 10ft. I've seen them before between the popular Sunday Market and WAMCO Milk and besides assessing the last picture before your post, you will notice that the depth is more than twice BRF's (a six footer) height. To the right of the picture, you will also see the drainage channels which will be buried which are high enough for the people in front of them to walk through
Yeah, I can see that.
I think it's not safe with that depth(6 ft), except it'll be covered.
Imagine if road users fall inside that.

Still expecting Ekiti Internation Airport promised. grin

Politics › Re: Proud Ibadan (pictures) by PaulJohn1:
babyosisi: You are correct
He had a lot from UI and that does not represent Ibadan really
I have been to Ibadan
These are pictures of Ibadan on google pictures
The pix you posted are from areas that represents one-tenth(1/10) of Ibadan.
They are the oldest part of the city, which is expected of most African cities as old as Ibadan
You passing through one side of Ibadan as a traveler is not the same as you been to(knowing) Ibadan.
If truly you know the city well you'll understand this.

I'm sure you passed through gbagi down to iwo road off to Lagos, from wherever you've coming from. All these are the ugly part of the city

Take your time and drive through the city(not as a traveler), visit the city center(I.e. Mokola, Bodija, ashi, oluyole, iyana church...)
This should change your view about Ibadan.

@Ileke, nice one

Seems those tunnels are too deep, something like 5ft(human height). Only underground ones have such depth

@Eko ile thanks for bringing up those pictures.

I'm still like "wow" when forum(NL) members who are not Lagos indigine display their bitterness(out of jealousy) for Lagos to bad mouth anything from there.
Better do your whatever business in the city full of opportunities(without limitation), make your money and go back to your village to develop it(myself inclusive), instead of dying over other people's headache.

Good to see development reaching ikorodu, people of the place have been left out of Lagos development for years.
Noticed the huge road extension(I guess six lane), bridges been built with excellent quality from mile12 to Ikorodu, it's impressive I must say.
The construction of the 4th mainland bridge(hoping) from Island through Lagos Lagoon down to Ikorodu will seal the prosperity of that area.

Wish the govt. in care of Ishagamu(Ogun)-Ikorodu(Lagos) road can as well be smart to see the significance of that road in building the economy of the states involved.

Politics › Re: Only Lagos Can Survive Without Oil – Fashola by PaulJohn1: 4:11am On Jan 18, 2013
To an extent the governor is right.

But mehn, Lagos's strength economically won't remain the same without oil.
He forgot that directly on indirectly Lagos tax payers wealth are connected to oil.
A successful business tycoon who pays huge tax has most of his customers as civil servants.
Without oil, civil servants are definitely going broke, with the regular tax payer(business guy) having nada to contribute as tax.
Same is for industries, companies... If the larger percentage of their customers have nothing as exchange for manufactured goods due to unpaid wage(from oil) by the top government, companies won't be able to meet up with their monthly dews.

Institutions(polytechnics, universities, colleges of education) that also add up to monthly IGR won't have much to offer when over 50%(assumed) of guidances that pay kids fees are directly or indirectly employed by the FG(Nig highest employer of labor)

Not until this is put into test(Nig without oil), the effects can't be certain.

Politics › NPDC, 2 Firms Sign Deal On Oyo Well by PaulJohn1(op): 2:27am On Jan 16, 2013
By Kayode Ekundayo
Allied Energy Plc has signed a Deed of Assignment with Transocean Limited and the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC) for the Sedneth 701 semi-submersible drilling rig to carry out the drilling of the Oyo No 7 well.
Oyo N 7 is located on OML 120. Allied Energy is also the operator of and OML 121.

The Sedneth 701, currently under contract with the NPDC and operated by Transocean, would be assigned to Allied to drill Oyo well N7 between April and August of 2013. Transocean will continue to operate the rig during the assignment period.

"We are very pleased that Allied Energy has executed an agreement for Transocean's Sedneth 701 drilling rig," said senior VP of Exploration and Production, Segun Omidele.

"This rig has the necessary specifications to achieve Oyo #7 well's dual objectives of increasing production from the Pliocene and testing the resource potential in the Miocene, and it also provides necessary certainty for our 2013 drilling operations."

Meanwhile, Elcrest Exploration and Production Nigeria, the JV company established to work on OML 40 by Eland Oil & Gas and its Nigerian partner Starcrest Nigeria Energy, said the immediate objective is to re-commission OML 40 production facilities with a target gross production of 2,500 bpd before the end of Q1.
The JV will then increase production through further development, appraisal, and exploration to reach a target gross production of 50,000 bpd within four years.

Elcrest, along with the state oil firm, NPDC are planning on the full development of OML 40 after restoring production through the existing production facilities and will export the oil via the Shell operated export terminal at Forcados.

Politics › Re: is Southwest really Irrelevant In Nigerian Politics? by PaulJohn1: 9:03am On Jan 10, 2013
It's the relevance of the SouthWest that's putting the top government(FG) on their foot. S/West is the opposition which makes it the most important region. one of the reasons OBJ's performance was low is 'cause there was no opposition to challenge him or those available then were irrelevant or too weak.

Remove the S/West from Nigeria and there'll be no meaningful opposition to keep the president working.
Wonder why the FG's headache is the S/West, they understand the relevance of the critics coming from there.
In short, it's the S/West and the rest of Nigeria. Think deep, you'll understand.
