Politics › Re: Onitsha River Port Has Been Concessioned. by Penguin2: 1:59pm On Aug 05, 2022
Good step if the concessionaires would be serious and sincere with the project.

The last I read about the concessionaire, it was owned by a northerner. I’m sure after the uproar it generated, they are now using a certain “Nwangwu” as front.

Not like I care if the concessionaire is Igbo, Hausa or Yoruba, I just wanna be sure it’s not a ploy to sign off that port to an enemy of Southeast who would render the port redundant for a whole 30 years.
Politics › Re: Why Is Kerosene More Expensive Than Petrol ? by Penguin2: 1:31pm On Aug 05, 2022
lonelygem:
God bless you. I'm surprised Nigerians dont research. Ive tried to educate people on several valuable use of Kero beyond domestic cooking, back then when I was at the Depot, even Government value Kero more than anything. A typical importer might not be able to import kero more than once or twice a year and same importer brings in PMS and AGO 3 times a week.

And at every point Kero is discharged through our cargo line, it's a matter 2 hours or less, you just must see NNPC barge anchoring around the jetty waiting for the Kero vessel to disembark for it to batt and load same kero.

Kerosene known as DPK is same product treated as ATK and used for all aircraft and airplanes to move.

Kerosene has more value than PMS and it is responsible for high cost of aviation tickets in Nigeria today. There is high demand for Kero because many importers dont bring in Kero due to high cost of maintenance on it's storage.

STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE
As an importer, everytime you bring in Kero, you start preparing to receive it like a week before it arrives which is unlike bringing in other white products.

There is a process of evacuation which involves opening of man holes on both sides, providing kits for maintenance team to go into the tanks that has concealed over 10 million PMS for over 6 years with PMS still in there..

We used to dress fully kitted with oxygen gas bottles on our back, with high pressure jets capable of throwing 5 adults off their feet.

God forbid you miss your step and your gas cylinder or mask goes of, before you crawl your way back to the Manhole, you might have give up the ghost.

So, on average, importers spend about 6 Million for storage of DPK. And the process takes a whole week which is not so in PMS and AGO

We dedicate tanks for various products. But not in a case of DPK that you bring in just once in 4 years. In that case, whenever you are bringing in DPK, you must do thorough evacuation which would even make you lose about 8000 litres of the initial product, make you contract evacuation and proper venting of the tank, and wait for DPR to come and confirm and sign that the tank is safe for storage.
Thank you for this education.
Politics › Re: Oshiomhole: Tinubu’s Opponents Should Have Helped A Christian Win APC Ticket by Penguin2: 6:56am On Aug 05, 2022
Christians who worked for Asiwaju’s emergence did so because they thought the old man had any iota of sense of justice left in him and would see to a balance in his ticket.

They are not God who would have known that Tinubu would throw caution to the wind and become outrightly stupid by not caring about Christian sentiments and sensibilities.

Politics › See How Peter Obi Managed Flooding That Affected Anambra And Kogi In 2012 (vid) by Penguin2(op): 8:06pm On Aug 04, 2022
A throwback video has emerged, of Peter Obi attending to victims of flooding that affected both Anambra and Kogi states in 2012.

The flooding was so devastating that some indigenes of Kogi State took refuge in an IDP camp in Anambra. The IDP camp also contained indigenes of Anambra.

Addressing the victims, Obi assured them that they would be adequately catered for no matter their states of origin; declaring that Nigeria is one.

He promised that they will be fed, and as well have other relief materials given them.

Watch…

I have never seen a people so foolish, brainless, idiotic, myopic and stupid like Tinubu supporters.

This people keep insulting Christianity.

I thought they said Christian votes don’t matter and they are incompetent? Why’s all of them pretending to be friends of Christians now?

It started with Tinubu and Shettima renting 30 fake Bishops.

Then Atiku said he’s no longer Alhaji.

Now Adamu is “Praising the lord” on the altar.

Politics › Re: 6 Islamic Clerics Oppose Tinubu, Ask Muslims Not To Vote Him by Penguin2:
Lol

Remember the adage that says, “if you sell your brother to strangers, the buyer (the strangers) will never trust you”? Because a man who can sell his brother, can sell anyone.

The funny thing is that Tinubu betrayed the entire South to please the north and enthrone Buhari to power; thinking he’d become the poster boy of the north when 2023 elections come.

2023 elections are here and Tinubu is running from pillar to post to still prove himself to northerners. The idiot even had to fly a Muslim-Muslim ticket, yet, nothing come out.

It is a lesson to southern political fools like Umahi, Uzodimma, Okorocha, OUK, Amaechi, and the idiots who defend these fools here Nairaland… you will not gain popularity by licking northern asses.

The implication of licking northern asses is that while you lose popularity in your native south, the north knows you are fooling around so they can give you power.

All those who have licked northern asses in the past have failed; from Awolowo to Abiola to Okorocha to Amaechi to Orji Uzor Kalu to Umahi, etc; and now Tinubu is about to join that long list.

Obasanjo didn’t have to urinate all over the north before he gained power.

Jonathan didn’t have to go holding colloquiums at Arewa House before he gained power. If anything, he lost power when he went on the voyage of trying to please the north at the expense of the south; including his native Southsouth.

So, if you are a southern politician, or an upcoming one, don’t go bowing to the north thinking that’s what will give you power.

But don’t make yourself their enemy either like Wike.

Be you, be original and never value strangers over your people.

Be wise!!!

emmykk:
If Atiku is intelligent he will accept their condition and do 1 term,atleast 4years as president is enough.

This is because if Atiku wins and do 1 term that will be about 12 years of Northern on the presidency. And 2027 there will be a huge clamour for southern president already,he will use the opportunity to step down.

If he continue to disobey the demands of these governors he will not get their support and there is no way he will win.

There is a tough Tinubu and Obi to crack,he can afford to loose Rivers,Abia,Enugu,Oyo,Benue, and be president.
He has to agree,it is the turn of the south that he is encroaching on now,he can't afford to be strongheaded.

Wike need to negotiate this down before they can support him This is his chance if he blow it that is his luck
Whatever happens, I don’t see Atiku winning the election.

Emmyxclusive:
This ur comment is not accurate, stop following the trend, get the facts. US never Said they will send troops to fight for Ukraine. They only said they will support then which they are still doing till today so how did they abandon then? On the issue of Taiwan, Biden said the US will defend them so let's wait and see If the will keep the word.
Can you show me where I claimed US said they will be sending troops to Ukraine?

Meanwhile, before the war, did US ever tell Ukraine categorically clear that they won’t be on ground to fight with them? That policy of not sending troops on ground was made after the war had started.

Do you not think that Ukraine may have thought US will be on ground to fight with them?

If Wike is wise, he should quit PDP, join Labour Party and support Peter Obi. I don't see how Obi will lose
These politicians seem to live a world of their own different from the world we live in and observe its happenings.

Meanwhile, Atiku letting Ayu go for Seyi Makinde’s lackey is the day he would submit himself to Wike’s mercy.

But he has gotten the ticket, there’s nothing much they can do except sabotage his campaign.

But I don’t see Wike’s camp’s intelligence here… their demand for the control of the party structure is so that they can stop Atiku from going for second term but the term of the present NWC will expire while Atiku would be sitting president, if he wins. Do they really think they can defeat Atiku and Okowa in the next party congress?

Tinubu don't need to go to south east before winning election in Nigeria. He won primaries without going to south east. After all during 2015 and 2019 elections the so called south east didn't vote APC and APC still won. So APC don't need failure south east votes. We're capable with what we can do by the special grace of God.

JagabanLagos:
The major problem of Nigeria is the failure among all tribes to reach a particular candidate base on debate on each candidate qualities. But how can enemies come to a round table to discuss if I should support my enemy candidate.

NOTE: Buhari failed woefully most especially in the security and economy sector. I'm a Nigerian and not Buhari's puppet.


Igbo people today have made themselves an enemy of other tribes in Nigeria. If south south can't trust you, how do you expect SW and North to trust you. Saying Peter Obi will become president is an illusion. Igbo people should face reality and tell themselves truth.

Base on my calculations, if IGBO support Obi and Tinubu wins, that means IGBO doesn't stand a chance for the next 16years. When that 16years come, Yoruba will surely support South South instead of IGBO. That makes it another 16 which will rotate back to Yoruba.

You will only support my calculations if you are open minded. But if Igbo support Tinubu for 8years and support north for another 8 years, tell me why SW and North won't be a betrayer if they don't support Igbo after 16 years.

You have to labour for presidency. Doing 16 years of Labour ain't bad. Yoruba has been out of power for 14 years. This is my piece of advice. If you have something reasonable to say, I will reply you. If not, may you have a blessed month.
Go and shove this advise in Tinubu’s leaky ass.
