You could learn to make your point without ridiculing yourself- check your first sentence.

Nigeria is a blessed country, if you read my post very well, I mentioned plus other natural resources that Nigeria have and I will like to add agricultural products to the mix as well.

Nigeria have a huge population and God the creator gave them resources to fend for herselves but corruption will not let then.

The country gave up on Agriculture that was once our #1 source of income as a country, then faced oil, other industries were almost abandoned..
Even the oil self, neither of the government owned refineries are working in full capacity even with all the money earmarked for the project since Obasanjo's regime.

There's money to fix whatever needs to be fixed in Nigeria, Nigeria is not poor.

My conversation with Mr. Abdulwastecx was about the duration of the 2nd Niger bridge project.. a project of that small magnitude of less than 2 miles should have taken this long to complete.

The reason for the refinery collapse is subsidy. Until subsidy is completely removed, we are all wasting our time.

And it will be so ironic to know that a large percentage of those half are in the "worst city" to live in

The Easternerners that have been complaining of marginalisation, that the federal governments don't build infrastructures in their region are now the ones saying infrastructures are not important and they don't drive and economy just because Peter Obi said so. Is God not wonderful?

If a wealthy foreign business man wants to invest his billions in Nigeria and he wants maximum ROI, would he invest in States filled with farmers and producers or states where there are infrastructures?

Badgers14:
Sir, we are talking about a bridge spanning 1.6km. Less than 2 miles of bridge.

And Nigeria is not a poor country. Corruption made it poor.

The same oil in UAE , Saudi , Qatar etc.. is the same Oil in Nigeria.

Plus other natural resources we have those countries don't have.

Stop being myopic and stop talking out of emotions. I'm not trying to justify the foolishness of our politicians but y'all should stop comparing UAE and Qatar with Nigeria. Those countries has the same or more deposit of oil in a smaller area and with a very small population.

Qatar for example is a country with a landmass of 11,500km² has less than 3 million citizen but yet produce almost 2 million barrels of oil per day.
Nigeria landmass is 924,000km² (that's times 80 of Qatar's landmass), with over 200 million people but yet produce about 1.2 million barrels per day. How would you compare both countries?

That's like comparing a man that earns 1 million monthly but has 4 wives and 15 children with a man that earns 5 million monthly but has 1 wife and 3 children.

bishopkay:
No! We are not saying roads should not be done. After all, Peter Obi as governor, linked all the rural towns in Anambra by road to the center.

We are saying develop your people and some of these things government waste money on, they will handle it efficiently and not waste or spoil them. Education is one of such ways to do that.

Building skyscrapers that enlarge the gap between the rich and poor in society is only a recipe for doom!

Let me give you one example.

You have a few millions to invest in a barber shop in your area. Would you invest in boys to go and learn how to barb hair before you build the barber shop?

What would be the essence of their skill when they don't even have a clipper to work with?

All of a sudden, Nigerians that insults the Government for bad roads are now opening their mouth to say roads are not important.

logicalhumour:
Are you a farmer? No? Well, that's what I thought. Now, listen to a Benue boy educate you on farming in Nigeria.

- First of all, lemme break it to you that "good roads" aiding transportation is just a secondary school business studies meme. No matter how rugged a road is, our trucks will pass.

- Silos you say. If we encourage producing so much rice —more than we can consume, do you finding a way to store it will be a problem? Only the revenue generated from exporting it can handle the needed storage facilities (and once again, production gives birth to infrastructure)

- Communication
You're kidding, right? Don't get me started.

- Bridges, railways, "infrastructure is key"

Of course, infrastructure is key, however, the question is, should it be prioritised over production?

So you agree with Peter Obi with your full chest that infrastructures does not drive an economy?

Imagine Buhari coming on National TV and say Infrastructures don't drive an economy. Would you praise him or insult his generation?

Watch this video


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGWqj33Qm70

So when you compare these things to what Fashola did as a Governor, you'd stay Peter Obi is better than Fashola?

PresidObi:
The best way to improve the economy is to create enabling environment for the masses to take over productive ventures and make profit, then pay tax.

Enabling environment like easy loans, stable interest rates, strong security, etc

And what is the use of the loans you invest in your farm when there are no good roads to transport the products to consumers?
Is steady power supply not also one of the "enabling environment" too? Are dams and power stations not infrastructures?

You guys honestly don't know what you want.

Awesome01:
Good submission from you bro. I agree with u on that. However, if the OP or his lawyer stands as the plaintiff in court trying to get judgement on his claims as owner of pregnancy on a lady not recognised by law as his wife, he will loose.

But if he is standing in as a witness to the government on the crime of abortion, which is against the law. Yes, she may be punished by the law.

True

maxzzo1:
So which one b Tinubu's own eat agbado, cassava and maize abi.....Jonsing people

I'd rather a person who doesn't have a bad record of owing Doctors and lecturers as my President.

Awesome01:
Good correction. You are right he could do that. However, the police are not going to be the judge, and the court will not judge based on just your evidence. She would also defend your claims. She will also be tutored by her lawyers on what to say.

This is Nigeria, she could bribe her friends to witness against you that you said you didn't want the pregnancy immediately after confirming it.

She could bribe to get doctor's report that the said foetus died as a result of some complications that pose a threat to her health. (Remember that a doctor did the abortion o and won't want the problem escalated to him or her).

Well, it all largely depends on what she says in the audio. And also, she won't be the only one with a lawyer in the court.

Awesome01:
Is the said child you said up there a male or female? Fair or dark in complexion? Bros, It is not a child that was aborted, it is a pregnancy.

Abortion is illegal in Nigeria. All the guy need do is get the lady to admit she truly aborted her pregnancy on camera or an audio tape. And also make her admit she wasn't in an danger.

Fiscus105:
If you see girls/ladies/women mind (mentality) when dating guys ehn, you would know this type of narrative will keep on growing.

I dnt have single sympathy for her

Many see men as only mean to get money, when they have functional brains, and when legs and hands are not deformed o.

Infact, some ladies, if they buy expensive clothes,bag or hairdos, all their mind would be how to get triple of the money from guys. Guys who are not your daddy, uncle or brother. As if it was guy who forced her to go for what she couldn't afford.


If all ur mind and mentality tailored towards getting money from guys at all cost,why won't you be victim of such relationship.

If you can see what Yahoo boy/rich guys normally subjected some ladies to, you will weep for this generation.

As much as you're right, it is unfair to blame the victim and not the perpetuator.
That's like blaming a man whose house was robbed because he didn't lock his door instead of blaming the robbers.

odoemenacelevian:
Vote Peter Obi for sustainable power supply..
He will lead us out of this..


Am begging you my fellow Honourable Nigerian
Please..

We need a leader like Peter Obi who is full of compassion
He will save our country

Peter Obi said Infrastructures doesn't drive an economy. Are dams and power stations not infrastructures?
Peter Obi isn't the solution. We need a man whose past as a Governor shows he can solve power situation.

Tinubu is the man.

JBriel:
Can you prove the pregnancy to begin with ?


If she aborted, can you prove the aborted foestis is yours ?

If she says she had multiple partners, can you prove it wasn't another who got her pregnant ?

Can you prove she didn't have a miscarriage and it was an abortion?

You just displayed your joblessneee you poor urchin

What right do you have? Is she married to you. Or has a foetus been scientifically proven to be a child.

You really need a child but can't put a ring on it and have her properly married. You're a big full with this mindset looking for naive females to prey on, Jaguar

Carry your sexual predatory, lust and sexual escapades to hell plz

He can confront her while secretly recording an audio or video and ask questions that will make her admit that she aborted the child.

Uzomacharles:
You see how all these HOES are supporting the girl?

If the guy told her to abort the pregnancy then you will hear them raining insults on him telling he can't man up his responsibilities.....

It is actually ironic when you see that it is the males that are actually sympathetic to the unborn child than the females.

I gave up when I saw this protest sign board

nnamdi640:
You might end up as a teacher. Just avoid anything that will make you become a teacher in this country.

When Tinubu or Peter Obi becomes the President, the teaching profession will be a thing of pride.

otipoju:
I was born and lived in Lagos for over 34 years before i had the chance to see first hand what a developed city or country actually looks and feels like.

I witnessed the beginning and end of Tinubu's government. There was nothing i remember other than Jigi Bola and bill boards saying this roads are federal roads, we cannot fix them.

If it were a Fashola that we are talking about, i would not be as critical. But Tinubi is not it at all. Even before i left Lagos my eyes had opened to their well oiled propaganda.

Tinubu's people run a cult, if you are not a member or affiliate, nothing for you. I was very close to a one time Local Government Chairman in Lagos so i know. I tactically withdrew from that setting when them tell me for my Cele church sey make i end my friendship with politicians make dem no go use me do sacrifice.

Politicians are heartless and Tinubu is as heartless as they come.

And Peter Obi is not a politician?

otipoju:
To each his own. But please the correct word is "hire" and not "higher".

Any student of philosophy gets his mind to be refined.
It is Obi's refined mind that makes him atrractive to Nigerians. A first class accountant is a first class accountant.( Tinubi is not a first class graduate though) It does not mean his thought and behaviour will be noble. That is why you would see a Tinubi stealing more than he will ever need and willing to starl some more.

It's"steal some more" and not starl some more."

Nonexisting:
Someone said something yesterday where I was having meeting with a client. He said with what Peter knows and can do, he should forget Nigeria and channel his strength to the SE zone. Eventhough there is no regional government, Igbos should vote in capable governors across southeast and have Peter as consultant to all the states. He said that after eight years, Nigerians will be on their knees begging for Igbo president. He said it and it is still ringing in my ears.

People sef ehn. Was Anambra a model State in the SE when Obi was Governor for 8 years?

Nigerians are really forgetful sha

kingthreat:
You are very right. Unfortunately, that is even a bad sell for elections. People will not want to vote unpopular views.

This time around I won't support the lesser evil but the greater evil.

Since 1999, we have been supporting the lesser evil and yet the country keeps doing down.
Let's do something different this time and support the greater evil.

kingthreat:
I have come to the ultimate realization that subsidy has to be totally removed at least on the petroleum sectors and power sectors. Then food production should be improved then it is removed from food.

This is why I won't support any candidate that doesn't say he will remove subsidies.. Cos every other solution they are giving is just trash..

But the average Nigerians love to hear lies of building infrastructures, investing in textile industries, building power plants etc.
The politician that will say he will end subsidy will be the most unpopular politician.

Nukilia:
you are not far from the truth. Anambra should've been a model for Nigeria but ...

Nigeria is even too big. It should have been the model for just the SE.

NaMe4:
You further strengthened his point.

How would they survive in the typical Nigerian environment with lack of basic infrastructure to start with?

The hardworking ones would survive just like how the Igbos and Yorubas and all other hardworking Nigerians who are making in big in this country survives.

And also, I thought a certain Candidate said infrastructures doesn't drive an economy. So the Ghanians won't need infrastructures to survive in Nigeria.

Karlovych:
Even Ghanaians want to become OBIdient!

They are willing to be part of history and good plans of the visionary leader Peter Obi.

I'm very sure the Average Ghanian would know who to support if they live in Lagos and Anambra for 6 months each.

Jack005:
Nigeria is doing bad my friend. Why compare Nigeria to Ghana in the first place? Ghana does not have what Nigeria has at all

True. Ghana doesn't have what Nigeria has but they have enough prospect to be great. Even with their self acclaimed 24/7 power they're still like this.. They can't manage their small population.
The are the second produce in gold, they are oil producing nation but see the mess they're in.

Even with their redenomination of currency, their Cedis is getting useless by the day.

For Nigeria to be standing till now with our diverse tribe and religion is something. Ghana would never have been able to do that.

watersideboys:
Chicago can't be corrupted , Nigeria can and it's easy . Simple

Then why are people saying Tinubu bought Chicago's certificate?

This shouldn't be surprising na.

The fact that someone is a vegetarian does not mean a rampaging bull will see him and not gore out his intestines.
That's just life for you.

cunny88:
David's age isn't the only bone of contention, Mr and Mrs Ekweremadu has to prove beyond reasonable doubts that the boy offered to donate his kidney without any inducements either financial or otherwise.

If the boy's claim of him being 15 can be proven as a lie, all his other claims like him not knowing why he was going to abroad will be questioned.

watersideboys:
What can't be bought? Tinubu is richer than Lagos. If buhari can cook up waec why can't tinubu get nysc cert. You can only fool your ignorant village people

Nothing wakes a man pretending to be asleep. There is practically nothing you can show them that will be convincing enough.

So you mean Tinubu bought a Chicago State University certificate? If you are doubting Tinubu's certificate from a school in US, then we must doubt Peter Obi's Nigerian certificate. Afterall, Obi is a billionaire and can buy a certificate from a Nigerian University.

ImoleNaija:
A picture of him in NYSC khaki would do a great justice to the issue on ground.

In this life, get money o. E get why

Omor! So una don shift the goal post again?

Even if he shows you a pic of him on his NYSC wear, you then ask for the picture of the photographer that took the picture.

I suggest you allow this matter to die. I suggest you start rooting his drug case in Chicago. This certificate issue don die already
