OK. That's only hotel really close to ring road I've stayed.

How can u be living in Benin and be lodging in these hotels in Benin. Them dey pursue you?

Benelegend:
Mr man there better and cheaper hotel you can Lodge in Benin city for 2k with standby generator. Call me @08060413753.

I don't do small hotels Bro. only medium to big and safe ones. I can't have someone pulling a knife on me through the window for cell fone in the middle of the night

ismokeweed:
Don't bother. Lemme guess... Lixborr hotel. Place used to be my favorite. Going to the dogs

Bigger and older than Lixbor.

@Op, good to know you are back to base.

Guys in Benin should give us update about good hotels particularly the newer ones. I have used the Royal sth (marble?) hotel and Vichy gates at Ihama. Good n reasonably priced but very bad access road.

fados4sure:
Bed bug in #12k? Do you mind to share the name so i won't be a victim

Sorry Bro. No way. I can't . Not only bug problem. The lights went out at about midnight. No gen till 6am. See mosquitoes. This hotel is an institution as far as hotelling in Benin is concerned and a reference for others in the past (apparently). I had lots of good time in that hotel in the past, so I feel indebted to them.

fados4sure:
It's even 35k per night now in d lowest room. When i went there last year, it was 50k why presidential room was 120k up ward

I have used numerous hotels in Nigeria and around the world. And I can usually predict what an average room will cost me just by looking at the hotel facade and reception. But Benin Protea took me by surprise. Too pricey and so not worth it

Bed bug problem is not limited to the extreme low end hotels in Benin. I had bed bug issue in a 12k room hotel around ring road a few weeks ago. Very sad. Used to be one of the best in town.

fados4sure:
hehehe don't get it twisted. He was trying to conserve money otherwise, he could have as well go to Protea hotel in Central Road where a room is #120k per night

A bit of exaggeration here. Benin Protea starts from around 40k.

Op, who do u work for? It sounds like a well structured business but a budget of 4k per day is rather mean. Are u expected to feed from that too?

You can go through this being a man but what if it's a lady? Do they get the same allowance too?

Is it possible u chose this hotel over others because it guarranttes u a ready supply of ashi? Honestly. Bc it seems quite bad.

Dino Melaye that should be no more than a messenger in a proper democracy is now senator. Nigerians una see una life?

Dino Melaye becoming senator is yet another reason to reverse the creation of Kogi state.

Kogi is a state with zero stately attribute- both human and natural resources deficient.

Two of the wives look rather quite young. One can't help but wonder what the bedroom arrangement is like in the home of this 80 sth year old man.

rusher14:
NCAN would need DNA testing for this one.

He is a Yorubas with an Ibo DNA.

Nigerian men are afraid of writing a will for obvious reason.

Because after writing a will, wetin remain? Not be to go die?

Okay, the mullahs are here. They should know the ports are a long way away from home and the ports will be there long after they leave.

It is ironical that the port leadership that was given for no other reason than the power of the female charm is now being used to suffocate the expression of that same charm.

Under Buhari an afternoon outing with your girlfriend might cost you 10 centillion naira if something isn't done about the current rate of devaluation.

See breast like woman. I am sure he has done this before. No way he is doing this for the first time. He was just unlucky to have been caught.

Opuowei must be a civil servant in Delta state. They have not been paid for several months.

I am sure the slippers was made by an Islamic fundamentalist. Only they have this kind of ingenuity - in particular they have a thing for footwear and slippers.

labiola:
Bros, before you comment next time try and a do a little research on the topic so that people who have more knowledge or info will not think you are a fool. Having said that, Pension industry today is the most regulated industy today, no PFAs have any authority to touch the money under its management without the PENCOM approval. The DG of pencom is trying a lot. Pls give it to her. It is only Nigeria employers that will deduct fund from their employees and fail to remit such. To me, this is welcome development, hope they enforce the law.

If u have common sense and u are willing to learn, Google 'pension scam, Nigeria'.

With PENCOM, Pension money has become a free for all while retirees and beneficiaries die untimely deaths.

NO PFAs has any authority to touch money without approval? When was approval given by anybody to steal money in Nigeria? Where in the world are you from?

The billions of naira stolen regularly by these people didn't fall from the sky. They are pension contributions- people's sweat.

Tell us what we don't know about this credibility challenged scheme hijacked by criminals to extort Nigerians and maybe then we can begin to talk.

Right now you speak like u were either born yesterday or you are completely ignorant of the management crisis bedeviling Nigerian pension fund or the outright wholesale theft of people's pension contributions.

Trust, fidelity, law enforcement are the bedrock upon which pension anywhere in the world is built. Without these, it's a money pit that favours regulators and operators (administrators) to the detriment of contributors.

Nigerians want stiff sentences to these acts of egregious pension fund mismanagement/theft and not a little slap on the arm. Then Pay beneficiaries their due pension.

If u and Co were sent here to do some kind of pension fund laundry, you have done an awful job.

Inova:
If you dont have evidence of what you are saying pls dont just type nonsense. Do you have a pensioner in your family?

If I have my way all of you working in pension will be sacked. You are parasites. You bring nothing to the table, yet you take everything.

Nigeria lacks the probity and law enforcement capacity that modern pension scheme being touted demands.

For as long as pension fund administrators continue to see pension funds as free money to be stolen, this scheme will lack support and confidence by the vast majority of business owners.

The law enforcement apparatus to oversee regulator and administrators is hopelessly deficient.

How often are these funds audited and how dependable are these audits?

The easiest way to massive loot opportunity now is pension fund. Nigerians would like to know what became of the numerous cases of pension fund scandal under Jonathan involving billions of naira?

We are convinced that such looting is still going on unhindered under Buhari until someone with privileged info is patriotic enough to write petition.

This woman expect people to throw their hard earned money into a pit for her to mismanage because she has a govt appointment?

Wise girl. She must have gone to make herself some money

9/10 mongrel, 1/10 alsatian

Nobody is talking about all the kpomo he stole....

Apparently the station dpo is trying to make a difference. Whether the rank and file agree with him or not is a different matter.

Low IQ desperate Hoe. Her grand plan amounted to naught, infact backfired.

Contriving hoes like this preying on lecturers diminish the seriousness society ought to view the issue of sexual exploitation of innocent girls by unscrupulous lecturers whenever reported.

For the most part you dont see them in school. But then again if they are in school there will be no girls to keep gentlemen like us entertained.

To some people living through another WAI, Buhari is a bad dream that never seem to go away.

This is a legacy of poverty and death left behind by Bukola Saraki, former Governor Kwara state.

mmsen:
He more than tried, he actually did.

He didn't just make promises, allocate funds and then have nothing happen like that man in Edo state who has done nothing.

A good platform has been put in place for the people of AKS to prosper.

But I still hope that anyone/everyone who stole or unjustly enriched themselves whilst in public office is made to return said money.

Everyone from Akwa Ibom except the Ekpenyong guy seem to suffer an epidemic of what is called Stockholm syndrome where a victim feels sympathy, even love for his oppressor. And would want the oppression to continue.

U may get your wish for eternal suffering if you like but not at the expense of Nigeria.

Akwa Ibom is dead without Federal allocation as the law stands whether you produce some oil or not is immaterial.

But this thieving nonentity must be brought to book and his legacy of corrupt enrichment in state house uprooted.

Akwa Ibom citizens (and Nigerians) paid dearly while he was in office and they continue to pay with the obscene and regrettable retirement package he signed for himself while leaving office.

The war against corruption has not started for as long as Akpabio is free.

I have been watching Ekpenyong for sometime, I think he was sent by God to rescue people of Akwa Ibom and the poster of this nonsense above.

Akpabio unarguably the most corrupt Governor in recent times. He doesn't need senate money. He ran there only for protection.

Bross this could get onila pregnant you know. We havent even found the perfect guy yet

I am surprised this Onila still hasnt found a yoruba guy to marry her.

She started this ish about the perfect yoruba male on NL a long time ago.

Perhaps it is time she stops looking for the needle in her haystack before its too late.

The perfect guy is easier to find in the midwest, just a bit to the east but certainly not beyond the Niger.

I will recommend a holiday for her in that general area and pray she gets lucky so that perfect though unavailable (for marriage) guys like us on NL can have some peace. And quiet.

I have always known this man's head is not correct. When is he paying salaries owed workers and pensioners?

9jacodedgist:
they should hire him if they are wise

Employ an unreformed crook in a bank? U might as well give him a spare key to the strong room.
