This is a funny post.. My friend I work at the airport too and my daily bread is affected. Why blame me for telling you the true situation on the ground? You wanna hear feel good stories and not the true situation go ahead and decieve yourself.
So NAGAFF is giving orders for the customs airport to be opened? Who is NAGAFF in the scheme of clearing in Nigeria? They are far behind ANCLA.y
Olanrewaju has stated that the airport will not be opened except the agents sign an agreement that they will not go near the bulk breaking area. Nahco and Sahcol are also to show him they have enough equipment/forklifts and labourers to clear the tarmac of cargo.
That is the true situation as at this morning.
You can take it or leave it but I will speak the truth.
Just called another agent now who told me operation will resume properly on Monday

@ r231
Thanks a lot for the info. This is indeed hope. Is work starting today (Friday) or Monday? Do they also work on Saturdays?
If you don't mind, I can send you that recharge card on behalf of that other poster who made a promise. Drop your email address here or email me to matma_j@yahoo.com
Work is starting today, they work half day on Saturday and fully resume for normal clearing duties on Monday.

No need for the recharge card. I am a freight forwarder in UK so my customers shipments are caught up in the whole mess as well plus business been on hold since this whole thing happen......

You can always patronise me when you have a shipment from UK and USA.

Check my signature

Cheers

Dear All in One,

The situation is still the same. We have been advice to keep off from nahco premises for now to avoid unlawful arrest.

For now no activity at all.

Dear All

Work might resume any moment from now. As at yesterday the custom controller insist that work should resume both in courier and sahcol shed while nahco remains under lock but the agent refused out rightly that all the 3 shed must open if agent must go back to work.

From all indices when work resume tougher measure awaits nahco shed as the shed is in the black record of the controller. should work resume for now please use those flight that are naturally sahcol bound. To the controller nahco should be lock up out rightly.

Will keep you posted as event unfolds

A Chinese car company called LandWind unveiled a new car that looked almost exactly like the Range Rover E-vogue. The car cost $22,000 which is far less than the Evogue which is about $70,000. This development made a UK giant car company Jaguar Land Rover to be furious after the car was launched in a show in China last week.

Cargo operations to remain shut for non-compliance –FG


The Federal Government has said that operations at the cargo terminals of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos will remain shut until operators comply with the new procedure.

The Customs Area Comptroller, MMIA, Mr. Taju Olarenwaju, told journalists in Lagos on Monday.

He said the clearing agents had threatened national security and efforts to collect revenue for the government, adding that such would no longer be tolerated.

He explained that previous agreements signed with the agents in the past had failed as they had consistently violated rules of engagement and procedures at the cargo terminal, which restricted access to some parts of the terminal.

He said, “Terminal operators and clearing agents are taking our efforts for granted. It has become increasingly insecure to carry out business at the cargo section of the airport because of the activities of agents who through their collective actions continue to threaten national security.

“They have shown that they are economic saboteurs and terrorists who threaten the security of the airport. The Nigeria Customs Service will not fold its arms and allow this. We will be alive to our responsibility and not allow terminal operators to carry out this illegality.”

He explained that the clearing agents had continued to display a lack of capacity to enforce the new regulations in sensitive areas where cargo was kept at the airport.

“The warehouse remains shut until the agents and terminal managers show capacity to operate without a threat to security,” he stated.

Olanrewaju says goods that fall into the specialised category such as perishable; medical and diplomatic items will be isolated for facilitation, such that the importers do not suffer from the infraction caused by clearing agents, who are not ready to comply with operational procedures .

He is stable, able to even walk around and also adding weight (his flesh is returning) but his tummy is still a bit bloated.

The doctors said before the biopsy, they will have to run tests to see if his body will tolerate it so that's what we are waiting for.

Apart from the bloated tummy right now, he has no other complains. His feeding, sleeping and other functions are normal

FamilyHeavily Pregnant Woman And Partner Caught Having Sex On Maternity Ward by r231(op): 10:45am On Nov 24, 2014
Heavily pregnant woman and her partner caught having sex in hospital bed while waiting to have their baby induced

Heavily pregnant woman and partner caught having sex on maternity ward

Cleaner heard moaning coming from a private room and told her bosses

But the cleaner was told there are no rules against having sex on the ward

Hospital's policy is for frisky couples to put a 'Do Not Disturb' sign outside

Sex is rumoured to help induce labour for some women, as is spicy food


A heavily pregnant woman and her partner were caught having sex in a hospital bed while waiting to have their baby induced.

The mother and father were discovered by a cleaner who heard moaning coming from a private room on the maternity ward.

The worker told hospital bosses what she had found but was informed there are no rules against having sex on the ward at St Michael's Hospital, in Bristol.

The hospital's policy is for frisky couples to put a 'Do Not Disturb' sign on the door, The Sun reported.

A hospital source said: 'Other patients on the unit heard the commotion and were upset. The cleaner was utterly shocked.

'She was amazed to be told it was OK. The hospital's advice appears to be just to put a sign up - amazing.'

Like herbal remedies and eating spicy food, sex is said to help induce labour in some cases.

However, NHS advice says: 'You may have heard that certain things can trigger labour, such as herbal supplements and having sex, but there is no evidence that these work.

'Having sex won't cause harm, but you should avoid having sex if your waters have broken as there is an increased risk of infection.'

A hospital spokeswoman said: 'Staff work hard to ensure privacy and dignity is maintained for all patients.

'Thankfully, we have not received any complaints or concerns in regard to this matter.'

Last year, St Michael's Hospital was criticised for allowing a mother to bring a dog into the maternity ward so it could watch her give birth.

The unusual presence was criticised amid claims that no special cleaning took place after the two-hour birth.

Managers justified the extraordinary action by saying that Barney, believed to be a Labrador, was a certified 'therapy dog' who had witnessed many births and had a 'calming presence'.
