I hope she get herself a good lawyer or ACLU to take up her case. No one in America loses his or her job because of his or her political opinions. I know a lot of lawyers in US will take up her case pro bono. This kinda things happens in despotic countries and not in America. The essence of 1st amendment is Critiqueing your leadership to keep them honest.
There is little the ACLU can do in this situation, especially if she was employed in a jurisdiction that has "at will" employment laws.

It basically means that an employer can fire you for any reason except race, religion, nationality, sexual orientation etc. Moreover, there may have been a clause in her employment contract which prohibited the act she did beside the president's convoy.

If she was employed by a government entity, then I would say she has a provable case of the government infringing her First Amendment rights.

I agree. At present, only the Lagos and Abuja airports have runway lights. Extending such to other airports will enable the airlines to launch more evening flights, which would in turn increase their revenue due to the additional flights.

PoliticsSenate Committee Endorses Abuja 2nd Runway by PDPGuy(op): 1:56am On Nov 05, 2017
The Senate Committee on Local and Foreign Debts yesterday endorsed the desirability of a second runway for the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, (NAIA) Abuja.
The Committee, led by its Chainman, Sen. Shehu Sani gave the endorsement during the inspection of the second runway site yesterday at the Abuja airport during an oversight function.


The senators noted that a second runway for the Abuja airport was necessary but they needed more specific details on the design and feasibility studies and possibly the cost of the runway to be built to enable them approve enough money that can build the runway.
“We will give you opportunity to update your estimates so we know if the money we are to approve for you will be enough or not” he said.
The committee also tasked the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), the owners of the facility to ensure second runway is coming with modern state-of-the-de-art facilities commensurate with international standards.

Checks by our correspondent showed that the second Abuja runway will be about 4.2km long and it may be a category III runway that has capability for handling flights in lower visibility. Nigeria doesn’t have a category III runway for now.
“As a procedure, we have to be here physically to listen to you and also inspect the proposed site that we are going to have the second runway. Now, the report and the facts that we are going to get from here will help us to analyze and appraise whether you are eligible for us to grant the request to the Federal Government” Sen. Sani said.

He explained that his committee “is statutorily mandated and positioned to scrutinize loan requests and invite beneficiaries to come and explain on why we should approve or not approve the loan request. This international airport is on paper a beneficiary of this proposed loan.”
The Airport Manager, NAIA Abuja, Mr. Mahmud Sani, while responding to some of the concerns raised by the committee, especially on the viability of the runway when built said the runway will be viable and make the Abuja airport more commercially competitive.
He said, with an average of about N200 million monthly income from the Abuja airport, a second runway will also enhance the earning of the facility.

He also explained that, with a second runway, there will be several other commercial offerings at the airport from non aeronautical activities.
He also noted that if Abuja had a second runway, the recent closure of the airport for the runway repairs wouldn’t have happened adding that Abuja airport is the only international airport in Nigeria without an alternate runway, a situation that is dangerous for safety.

PoliticsAbuja Airport N61.2b Terminal Opens February 2018 by PDPGuy(op): 1:26am On Nov 05, 2017
• Work to begin on second runway


All things being equal, the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport's (NAIA) new terminal in Abuja will open for operations February next year.

The terminal, built at the estimated cost of N61.2 billion ($200 million) is a partnership between the Nigerian government and the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC).

The new terminal, according to state officials, is to offer befitting service to airport users that are visiting the Federal Capital and accommodate new traffic on account of the second runway already penciled for 2018.

The National Assembly joint committee on aviation, on an oversight function Tuesday, was impressed with the level of work at the facility, concluding that it is 80 per cent ready. While the construction company, CCECC, said the terminal will be ready February barring shortage in power and water supply, the committee urged the handlers to ensure all necessary equipment are in place before the facility officially open for use.

It will be recalled that the new terminal is one of the four terminals for construction in the N153 billion ($500 million) loan deal between the Federal Government and CCECC in July 2014. However, delay in the payment of counterpart funding by Nigeria has stalled progress of the work with delay in completion date.

Chairman, Senate Committee on Aviation and leader of the team, Adamu Aliero, said the joint committee is working with the Ministry of Aviation on ways to secure funds to ensure the terminal is delivered with all equipment in place.


On the CCECC Project Manager's concern over power and water supply shortage, Aliero assured that the ministry of aviation is already aware of the challenge and working to resolve it. "And once they bring it to the notice of the legislature, we will do the needful and give necessary support because we need this terminal to be put to use immediately after completion.


"There is no point having a terminal without water and electricity. The existing power and water supply is not adequate to accommodate the terminal without an upgrade. The terminal would be completed and commissioned before the end of next year. It is already 80 per cent ready. What is left to be done is just the finishing and the equipment are already on ground. The project manager said the control tower and fire station need to be relocated. If the fire station and control tower are relocated, maybe we would commission the facility earlier than the end of next year," Aliero said.


The chairman added that there is no going back on the construction of a second runway for the Abuja Airport "because of the increasing passenger traffic and capacity for the airport." He said the Abuja aerodrome is the only major airport in Nigeria without a second runway, adding that the National Assembly had already made provision for the runway in the 2018 Appropriation Bill.


He said all that is left is for the ministry of aviation to make arrangement for the procurement and award for the contract. "Lagos, Kaduna, Kano and Port Harcourt all have second runway. Abuja being the federal capital territory deserves a second runway with the attendant passenger inflow and number of flights coming into the airport.


"We do not need a situation where we have to wait or divert to Kaduna International Airport again with the horrendous experience before building a second runway. "This is why the National Assembly has approved the construction of second runway for Abuja and luckily the ministry is working to ensure that the procurement and award of contract is done before the end of this year and if it is awarded there would be enough funding for next year."


Earlier, Project Manager, Kelvin Lee, said unless there is an upgrade of existing power and water supply, the completion date will be delayed.
Lee said it would be of no value to complete a terminal of such magnitude without adequate power and water supply.

He urged government to facilitate funding to accelerate the provision of support equipment that would enable the company deliver the terminal before the end of next year. Lee said the company was working within its scope to complete the terminal, but will require government to relocate the control tower and fire station that currently pose an obstacle to some sections of the new terminal.

PoliticsRe: Soyinka Returning To Trump’s America — After Tearing Green Card.photo by PDPGuy: 11:38pm On Nov 04, 2017
HungerBAD:
Laughing.

Did anybody ever see him tear up his green card?laughing.

The man just dey make mouth,and taking gullible Nigerian's for granted. The Green Card is a property of the United States,and by law if he does not want it, he is suppose to go to the nearest US Embassy or Consulate to return it.

Destroying the property of the United States Government is an offence, and Uncle Wole Soyinka knows this, since the US takes such things very seriously.

Why i feel Wole Soyinka lied. Wole Soyinka has a 10 yrs Green Card(Residence Permit). As a 10 Yr Green Card holder, you are not allowed to stay outside the United States for 12 Months, as staying up to 12 months will automatically revoke the residency or sometimes you are not allowed in at the point of entry.

Wole Soyinka is returning back to the US before the 12 months time elapses. He can go in, and leave the next day and stay away for another 11 Months+ if he chooses, and then repeat the same thing again and again.

If Wole Soyinka Burns the Green Card, he can kiss the United States BYE BYE forever. He will never see their Visa with his eyes again, even if the President of the U.S Invites him.

Eduardo Saverin was one of the founders of Facebook. When he renounced his American Citizenship because of the heavy taxes, he quietly returned their Passport to the Embassy in Singapore.

Eduardo Saverin should have burned it, then the United States would have used that as an excuse to go after his money. And even to renounce the American citizenship or residency comes with a fine that has to be paid. I think for Citizenship renunciation, it is like $450.

Modified: To Anti-Wailer that just quoted me. Have you passed through the America immigration system before?
from your answer to my post, i can 100% authoritatively say you have not. So read and learn.

There was a time, i was a 10 Yrs Green Card holder many many years ago, so should know what i am talking about.

Other Nairalanders that have gone through the US IMMIGRATION system will tell you so. Wole Soyinka is using this lecture as an excuse for his Green Card not to become invalid.
All you said is accurate except for the citizenship renunciation fee. It’s now over $2000.
RomanceRe: Guys, Would You Marry A Lady That Earns More Than You? (Video) by PDPGuy: 7:19pm On Nov 04, 2017
Foodforthought:
Most women are raised with the notion that they will be married one day to a man "that will take care of them". The society puts men as breadwinners. That is also the natural order of marriage. Most women have pride in them and always tend to belittle men whenever they fall short in any area. I'm not assuming, I've seen for myself. Most women are drawn to materialism
Now tell me how does a husband control or demand submission from a wife who is doing much better than him in every respect...most women only submit if they are at least a bit dependent on a man.When they are not dependent they do not see any reason to submit. Let me ask you: Do you think Tonto Dikeh would submit to a man who earns #50, 000 a month teaching in a high class primary school?
Haha

It will be difficult for Tonto to submit to such a man. But if they are truly in love, I don’t see why she wouldn’t respect/consider his opinions on any issue.

By the way, there is a popular American TV personality called Megyn Kelly. While she was at Fox News she was earning around $15 million/year, while her hubby earns “only” $85,000.
But you know what? She quit her job and moved to another network where she would work in the mornings. She said her decision was due to her desire to be with her young children at night (She used to host a nightly program on Fox).
At her new job, she makes like $16 million/year. As someone who earns 188 times more than her husband, she could have easily told her hubby to take care of the kids at night. But she was humble enough to seek another job that will guarantee that she would be at home to care for the kids at night.

The point I’m making is that if there is genuine love, a woman would still respect a man who is her hubby even if she is richer than him.

People should not come here and tell us about versatility. No call dog a monkey to deceive the mumus.

If Rohr is truely looking for a DMF, we have many of dem doing well in a better league than in one obscure league in Norway.


No 1. Ryan Sanusi is playing in the EREDIVISIE for Sparta R. He is a free scoring DMF and he can play in 5 other roles( AM, CM, LW, LM & RW)


No 2. Brian Idowu is currently playing in the Russian league. He is also a better option than Chidiebere Nwakali because he is more versatile and plays in a better league than him. He Is double times versatile than Chidiebere Nwakali. He has played regularly as a DMF, RB, LB, CB, LM & LM. Why was he placed on standby while a player from obscure league just surface on the list from no where?

No 3. Raheem Lawal doesn't need any formal introduction. He has played and still playing as an DMF, AM & CM but the corrupt and selective system will never allow merit to reign in this country.He ones played as a RW too.


No 4. Hope Akpan also doesn't need any formal introduction. He is more versatile than chidiebere Nwakali some people want to force down our throat. E no go work. He offfers options in the LM, DM, CMF & AMF



These are the ones that doesn't need any FIFA approval/clearance before they can play for their father's land.

Time will not permit me to write about Ramon Azeez who is currently helping his club to top the la liga 2 table. I didn't mention Joel obi because they made excuse that he was injured when the list was made. So, Rohr doesnt have credit on his phone to find out about his injury?

If I begin add those ones nko? But it is not necessary now. Now, why did the coaching crew ignored these ones?

I have not mentioned those that need clearance oooo.
Ryan Sanusi needs FIFA clearance because he has played for Belgium’s U-20 team
