You can call it crap if you want, but I am not calling it crap.

I commended ACN for paying attention to this issue. Given that, I am not about to call it crap since I want more attention to be paid to the issue. If it wasn't clear enough for you I don't consider this a great solution, so I suggested that if at all, such suspension can only be short-term, depending on how critical things are.

As for you PointB U are fortunate I do like drinking garri, but I am not hungry right now - so if you are hungry go eat apu

It is not "equated" my friend, it is an analogy. The only comparison between the two situations is the narrow part about the recommendation by the doctor (ACN) on the travel issue. Of course, you cannot equate travel at night to damaged legs (the analogy here is that something bad happens when you try both). You cannot also equate ACN to a doctor (again the analogy is merely that they are both giving a recommendation about a problem). The third analyogy is that both recommenations are temporary.

Seriously, you are wrong in suggesting that ACN is proposing not travelling at all i.e. like a doctor telling you not to move around. The doctor (ACN) in this case is telling you to suspend walking ON DAMAGED legs (equivalent to traveling at night) NOT suspend/ban moving aroundat all (which would have been like suggesting not to travel at all).

You need to be aware of the law of analogies, I guess - everyone of them break down at some point and so must not be taken out of context.

Mobinga:
hahaha. Don't let the Population size deceive you.


If Ghana had equal population with Nigeria, diverse and all, you wouldn't even compare. Lets be frank here. We are using pop and diversity to our advantage, give Ghana 20 years. They'd have evolved into something Nigeria can only dream of achieving.

They are far better than us.!

It is not an idiotic proposal if it is short-term and the situation is critical. It is like when the doctor tells you can't walk on a broken leg for a few weeks. It would be idiotic if he were to tell you to stop walking altogether, but he may advise you to "suspend" walking on those legs.

I hope you note the difference Suspension NOT EQUAL ban

The Otaru of Auchi Kingdom in Edo State, Alhaji Aileru Momoh, has asked the Federal Government to declare Auchi, the headquarters of Etsako West Local Government in Edo North, a disaster area.

Momoh made the call on Friday in Abuja when he visited the Minister of Works, Mr. Mike Onolememen.

He said the gully erosion began in the 1970s on the major road leading to River Orle and gradually ate deep into the community, rendering many homeless.

Responding, the minister assured that the issues would be addressed.

I want to learn for knowledges sake, understand for the sake of comprehension, and teach for the sake of others. So basically, this is just a simple attempt to try and know the makeup of Nairaland.

Regarding the elephant in the room (resource control), I made this suggestion earlier that I think most would find agreeable:

Would anyone oppose this? It is only a small change over each of the 20 years. Which should give the states/regions plenty of room to generate additional revenue. You could also tweak it to make it eventually 100% resource control (say over 30 or 40 years). The main point is the idea, not the exact #s used.

I still say, I'm waiting for them to get down to business, 

Which is better?

Getting the government to make all major highways 4 lane plus and putting tolls which serves as security and also security check point/patrols,  Also making the roads smooth for traveling,

Or cutting off the leg cause it hurts? Which means stopping night travel! Night travel can be good for business,

We don't need to ban night traveling,  What is ACN thinking?

Gbawe, don't you think our boys are messing up? They are not thinking really! They should be sicking holding night travel pending the time the roads are fixed and adequate security put in place!!

kettykin:
what reasoning is this, will u because electricity kills ban electricity or look for a way to make it safer.

Night travel is ok, but for the wickedness of armed robbers in certain parts of the country who glory in human sacrifice and are so fetishly wicked.


Other armed robbers take cash and valuables and go but these ones sacrifice human heads.

The police and the public should note the state and local goverment areas where this abominatiom occures and the tribe that exist there should be watched and abhored by all

With this yeye Aboki list as Ministers, they will not get anywhere. Why in this world will odechuckuw appoint erelu as state minister of defence? Haliru, A lecturer in the North as Minister of Defence, what a credential.

Of course, Ikebe, you had rather set your arse on fire too. I did not expect anything better from a jerk of low intellectual pedigree such as you.

kettykin:
@ poster how will you not give your 2 million to babaginda when you have sold your soul to him. Babangida will still use your 2 million to buy the bus

with strong after sales support, opening up regional offices in benin, warri, 3 in lagos, kaduna , kano , 2 in abuja , jos , enugu , aba, ph ,calabar, accra, abidjan, yaounde and going into patnership with banks to offer a king of bank purchase scheme for customers, going into alliance with transport companies like the state owned transport firms and private transport companies , i dont see any reason why they will not becom number 1 in bus transportation.

However they will need to thoroughly test their buses and plug every loop hole before going on nationwide evangelism.

More money can be made from the public in 3 years time when your product has been tested and trusted by all.
