They are all paid Apc members. They were told to push as much bigotry as they can I the hopes of a P.A job.
Georgeakins, lapintoz, Mtnnews are just some of the accounts.
They usually rotate it to seem like they have numbers but it's probably just 5-10 old NL accounts with multiple monikers.
You can see them in every thread trying to drive the divide.

There is a video of Adeshina Prince on twitter where he was listing his achievements to the Ex Governor of Ekiti, Mr Oyetola.
All he could list was :
- I made a twitter post bla bla ...
- I countered obidients on twitter
- I did counter protest ...

Once I saw that video I understood the mindset of most of these mob. Don't take them seriously. Even they, before going to bed , must surely laugh at their own stupidity

It's too bad. 200+ tribes in this country but if anyone makes a comment or post about bad leadership they automatically tag him Igbo as if it's only the Igbos who are feeling the effects of bad leadership

Kaduna Dry Port.

That's Kaduna up there. That's the coast down there.

The Accidental Public Servant's brainwave = Locate an inland port in Kaduna, approximately 836.8KM away from the nearest coastline.

The Kaduna dry port is not a white elephant project. If the government gets things right, cargo destined for Niger Republic will be sent there for instance.

Importers based in the Northwest can state on they want the exporter to send it CIF Kaduna. CIF means Cost Insurance and Freight. So, the importer just waits until his project reaches the Kaduna dry port where he picks his cargo. He does not have to disturb himself picking it in Lagos, Port Harcourt or anywhere by the coast

Inland ports are nothing new. Landlocked countries use them. A country like landlocked Switzerland imports about $200b worth of goods.

Guy you've been parrotting this same rubbish over and over again.

Eko atlantic wasn't built to protect Lagos from the raging ocean. There are better structures for that. Eko atlantic was meant to be a business/entertainment district. Even the shore breaks there will do nothing to keep out heavy waves

Well Mr OP! I think u re forgetting something here…

the Eko Atlantic City hosted the The 2022 NBA AGC, themed Bold Transitions!

The NBA conference is a huge deal! If u’ve been to one ! Its a total lock down for such state hosting it!

Secondly Eko Atlantic is the newest business district thereby reducing the existing pressure from VI… as you know Businesses in VI are not owned by the poor! So the same applies to Eko Atlantic!

Thirdly its a sand filled area! You don’t just build right away on areas recovered from the sea via sand filling! Uve got to make it settle and this takes years! VI, part of Marina was also sand filled in order to expand the areas available to offices.

Lastly! It is private driven with no kobo from government other than creating an enabling environment!

Have you been to Manhattan USA… or city centres as they call it! It’s not meant for the poor!

Please disabuse your mind that since the poor cannot afford then it’s of no benefit

Not everyone can afford data to access Nairaland! That doesn’t make it any less useful!

Thank you and God bless

This is what 99% of the online miscreants are hoping for. Anytime you want to get triggered, always remember this video and understand that these are individuals with an extremely low IQ.

A pig is happy to fight in the mud because that is its natural habitat.

An Apc miscreant is happy to trade insults and tribal slurs because they have nothing else to offer.

A grown man listing political propaganda as his achievements. Its sad to see but helps you understand the stupid mentality of the Apc mob

Lagos Atlantic will be completed since Tinubu is there. Just as the Niger Delta oil was used to develop Abuja and the north, so Tinubu may use the same oil to develop the West and particularly Lagos Atlantic.

That is if he remains as president.

Abakaliki - Ebonyi Airport

A brilliant multibillion naira idea from 'Nigeria's best Governor' where the residents of Nigeria's 4th poorest state with 73.6% living in poverty export their produce by air.

Lol.

Umahi na my guy any day having witnessed firsthand how he transformed the state,

But I agree 💯 with the quote above.. As per elephant projects, it doesn't get any whiter than this. Honestly the guy goofed seriously. . .

Indeed just about 1% of the indigent population will need such services, and for those who actually do, there is nearby Enugu international airport about 45 min away.

No lie Umahi fall hand here ☹️

For those who don't understand the meaning of white elephant.

It just simply means bojo boju. The more you look the less you see .

Of course they are beautiful oh so precious, but the purpose of building it is useless because it will eventually end up in ruins .

First on the list we start with bobo Chicago Dubai.

When you ask the Ronu nomenclatures what did Bola do in Lagos them go dey do erhmm ermmm.

OGA what did he do ? Erhmmmm but he build Eco Atlantic.

Now Eco Atlantic is a white elephant project.

To even start with it's not for the common man , middle class or what you classify as rich .

Only super rich.

To make you understand a rent in eco Atlantic for one of the semi building partially completed is more than 3 million for 1 bedroom flat.

Uncompleted building o.
