Don't be intimidated; no one is imposing anything on you. He is only telling you the truth. You are free to believe falsehoods, but that shouldn't stop others from pointing that out.
Keep your beliefs to yourself. That shouldn't be hard to swallow.

Stop the ejo wewe

Are you saying that you want me to stop commenting on Nairaland? Tinubu boys are just like their father, wanting to take away everyone's right to speech.

Some of you just like to argue for arguments sake.

Togo is covered by 4.2% of water while Nigeria is 1.4%

If you had travelled by road from Benin to Togo, you will notice that the journey is mostly on coastal highway way which means you will see water almost all through.
Another misleading information. Togo has a coastline of 56 kilometers (35 miles). Nigeria's ocean length is approximately 853 km.
Let me interpret for you because you never understand. It means Nigeria also has 15 times Togo's capacity for ports. We have the Natural resource (oceanfront) to build much bigger than Togo can ever build.
You are welcome.
And stop misleading.

Well, what makes them special is how maximally delusional they have been.
This is interesting. You mean they delusionally won the presidential elections in the presidential state?

Well, been delusional doesn't make you a total failure, you can have some wins sometimes and that's totally fine. But loss in high percentage is the hallmark of been delusional tongue

One significant win is more significant than plenty small wins.
An addition of fourteen 1's is equivalent to 14. And addition of two 50's is equivalent to 100.

If their delusions are helping them win big 'sometimes' (becoming the majority of the population and determining the elections), then don't you think it is worth it?

Talk to me brother.

How is the "1 significant win" stop PBAT from been the President? Think about it. As a matter of fact, that win was useless because it didn't stop PBAT from ascending the throne as the President of Nigeria. And there is nothing big in them winning Lagos if it doesn't translate to something useful.
It's like you wrote a Waec exam and you pass Physics with 99/100 and you failed all the remaining subjects. How those that Physics you pass grant you admission without passing other subjects ?

There are some goods, when they are coming to Africa country from Europe, Asia e.t.c, they first make it to Togo before being dispatch to other places.

The Egypt port most especially around the Gaza strip have been a major trade routes for decades.
Efficiency and good infrastructure contributed to those ports rating. Shipping your goods to Togo or Cotonou is by choice, I've done business in these ports... Akpakpa in Cotonou, Lome in Togo and I tell you the fast services are topnotch that many businessmen chose them. Again there should be railway connection from naija ports to especially Eastern cities where over 50% of these goods headed but the government would rather build it towards Niger republic that's not economically viable because of politics and hate. Nigeria is the one holding itself down.

Oh, I get. But it is more like you applied for Engineering, wrote WAEC, "my people" gave you an "F" in mathematics, and then all of a sudden, without writing other alternative exams, we see you in Mechanical Engineering.

Bros, you still got the admission, but you and I will forever know that you didn't deserve it. grin grin grin

Or what do you think? Talk to me.

You and the rest of OBIDIENTS are celebrating that Nigeria is not among the top 4 ports on Africa.
Yes. I am celebrating because I am from Mongolia. Can't you see the excitement in the tone of my post?

All those issues started just in 2023 and they should have been fixed by now.
It is too late to be fixed? Why will it even be fixed since u see nothing wrong with it? Each time u keep on calling black to be white. How do u expect the painter to give us white when u have already painted black to white with lies?

Well, in a situation where we have 2 students trying to gain admission to study Mechanical engineering. 1 student passed only Mathematics and failed the other 9 subjects while the other student passed 9 subjects and failed Mathematics. If the university is to admit one student of of the 2, you don't have to visit the moon to know that the university will admit the one that passed 9 subjects and failed just 1 (maths). He could be excused as having some emotional, health or other challenges while preparing for the Mathematics exam. Compared to a student that failed 9 subjects and passed only Mathematics. He will be looked at as someone who is not serious. The university may even assume he cheated to pass that one subject.

Talk to me too grin

You were close to being smart. I think you will do better this time around:

But that is not how it works. If you bend the rules and admit the guy who failed math and physics (Lagos and Abuja) because he got credits in home economics, biology, music, and English language for mechanical engineering, while you deny admission into the same course to the guy who got A's in the same math and physics (the core and sum total of mechanical engineering) because he failed home economics, biology, music, and English language, then there is a problem, not only with y o u r sense of judgement or ability to make right choices, but also with y o u r morality.

You have my audience; feel free to talk to me grin grin grin

Coming from an Ipob that hates the progress of Lagos. Nothing knew about your rant.
Dude, don’t mistake calls for equitable distribution of development and opportunities across all regions of the country with someone hating Lagos! Isn’t it your sort that says everything about Lagos belongs to the Yoruba and everyone else should back off as they have no right to get involved in the politics and administration of the state!? You take this position, even as you get free money from oyel and gas exploitation from other regions!

Akwa Ibom has the most natural site for a port complex in the whole of WA. Akpabio as governor made an attempt to jump start development. His successors don't have an idea what that port complex will do for their economy

This shows you are not informed. How can you attribute it to water bodies. Do you know the coverage from Lagos to delta? Politics and tribalism have finished us. Simple, fix warri, onne expand your coverage, nothing. How can you grow , when everything should be in Lagos

Oga it is not about Water body, does Togo have water body than Lagos?
This is about efficiency, organization, and proper way of doing things. Ask and average Nigerian importer the stress they go through to clear just one container not to talk all bribes, illegal fees you are going to pay to port officials. Not only that, Logistics is a nightmare on its own (Oshodi - Apapa Rd comes to mind)
