motymop: The existing road is a state road, if use for the project, it will cause lot of traffic in that end. dont forget a train line and a interstate coastal highway will be located in that axis all sponsored by the federal government The so called state road was in their initial plan Are you saying they didn't know it was a state road before planning with it? |

motymop: There are more businesses and buildings at the at the back and behind the landmark building, so you want the government to destroy them to protect landmark that has broken the federal government shoreline rules You still dont get. There's an existing road there that won't affect Landmark. This was what they used in buying and designing their business, not what is currently happening. |

ClassicNairan: This is why I don't like military, why would you suspend all those TV stations. They can't all be that bad, even if they are, Instead of silencing them, the military could establish its own TV station to present its perspective and let the public decide who to trust. This approach would promote healthy competition and allow people to make informed choices about the information they consume. But to military everything is by force Western media houses, not local ones I support this move. We need to study how China did theirs 30yrs ago |

I have only worked with private firms n no provision whatsoever was made for children in the wage structure I received. Hope you saw children's education in the first attachment?

Kobojunkie: Politicians are not supposed to receive that though. Anything that uses tax money for their personal choices is to be frowned upon. So, when labor demands the same as those politicians, it makes labor look equally like a problem that the country needs to also get rid of.  Is labor asking for newspaper and hardship allowance or they're asking for basic salary that can handle the basic needs of life? |

thatigboman: exactly. Children's education allowance is part of what I'm paid. Those high up even receive domestic servants allowance in addition to Children own. The way some people defend these politicians is so annoying. Politicians that receive "hardship" allowance and even "newspaper" allowance that are like 5-10X higher than the common man's minimum wage, yet they're asking why should government pay workers salaries that should cater for a family of 5. |

SuperEagles: Why should the FG be responsible for any family of 5 when he employed only one perosn in the family.
If the FG is bearing the burdening of the 5 member family can it also share it responsibility to them or the family alone own right to place it responsibility on the FG ?! Have you ever been employed before? If yes, ever been given an employment letter? If yes, do you not see where allowances and all that are covered for as the total salary package? Don't they include the children in the salary package? I'm assuming you have ever received a standard employment letter before. If not, google what an employment letter looks like. The one that explain your salary package. Or are you saying government work should only be for single men and women? |

Akwamkpuruamu: That 15kg gas for a family of five must finish in a month. If u won't cook daily, eating junks is more expensive. If you dont cook daily or you cook in a bulky manner, you can still manage 12.5kg for 6 weeks. Talking from experience. Sometimes we get 8 weeks if we dont cook daily. |

Let's discuss realty for a family of 5.
12.5kg gas @ ₦15k for a month, let's say you don't cook daily, you can manage for 1.5 months. That's ₦10k per month.
Feeding at ₦6k per day (Total management). That's ₦120k per month.
Lets say you buy clothes once every 3 months at ₦60k for a family of 5, that's ₦20k per month.
Utilities = ₦30k per month (soap,power, water, PSP, security etc)
School fees (if all 3 children are in public schools) = ₦50k per child x 3 = ₦150k/3 (A term is 3 months) = ₦50k per month.
Transportation = ₦20k per month
Housing = ₦800k for a 2 bedroom for a family of 5 = ₦67k per month.
Total = ₦317k per month.
Let's say father and mother works and bring home their share.
Meaning they need a minimum of ₦155k each to meet up with the above bills without savings, emergency fund, investment fund or money for miscellaneous.
The least the government can do is increase minimum wage to ₦150k per month.
Anything below ₦100k is pure wickedness! |

BreconHills: Go and read history.
JK Randle stood up to imperialism but he did not do so naked with a bow and arrow. He built the first indigenous swimming pool for Nigerians at a time when swimming pools operated colour bars. That land and the "love gardens" was bequeathed to the people of Lagos by the same man. Love gardens was connected to the onikan stadium.
What did your fore fathers do against white imperialism and what did they bequeath to society?
And you are here carping about a name. It's what you do not what you are called. How you people deliberately miss the point is astonishing. |

Sctests: Chopnaira should learn fact. The word 'yoruba' is less than 300 years old. Even my village is far older than that. Unfortunately, "Oodua" as an identity is even more recent than the word "Yoruba" Less than 200 years ago, they all answered their father's names. Maybe this is why they rather stick to Yoruba identity given to them by outsiders than create an original identity like Oodua. |

Yorubas appreciate with posthumous reference not bending history with slide tackle or scissors kick I don't care what he was. We are talking culture here. You want to represent a cultural heritage, you decided to name it after someone with a slave name. Isn't that ironic and conflicting? He could still have been appreciated without using such an offensive name for a cultural heritage of a people claimed to be the second largest ethnic groups in Nigeria. |

Sctests: Even the name 'Yoruba' is not of yoruba origin and etiology. It is corruption of the word 'Bayerabe', used to describe the yoruba people. The word 'yoruba' is not found anywhere in original yoruba lexicology.
Yorubas should do better to drop the 'hausa baptismal' name given to them and rename themselves. 'Odoua" sounds better and original. I know that Yoruba was a recent identity given by outsiders, Oodua is more appropriate. |
