Interesting. What a hypocritical stance.

hercules07:
The pro subsidy removal guys are not asking that question, their own is for us to bear, like our religious leaders, touch not their anointed.

hercules07:
[size=14pt]Let them pay the toll jare or go by public transport, how do they expect the government to survive if they do not pay the toll, a 120 Naira or 240 Naira toll per day equates 5K per month,[/size][size=14pt] if you have no business leaving your area do not, do not add to congestion on the roads abeg.[/size]

The One:
@Akainzo
Go and sit down somewhere. Subsidy removal is part of "development". At least govt has provided alternatives in bicycles and roads you can trek on. Lazy people, instead of identifying where to buy bicycle and safe trekking routes, you are here complaining. I'm sure you are all ACN- people politicizing this "development" initiative. If you cannot afford Nigeria, move to Cameroun!

Gbawe:
This is what it boils down to for you e-b.i.tches is it not? I.e the chance to work off frustration through worthless e-fights like fish wives? Why don't you run along and find others to engage in your boring senselessness?

Gbawe:
Some of you have no shame and you simply don't know how to act as proper men. If you confess to "hissing and not reading" what I post, why are you responding to everything I am writing? Are you not exposing yourself as an emotional liar? Why not leave my post to others happy to read and respond to it?

Gbawe:
Why don't you carry on sitting on your neutral fence making noise then? People like you are just a waste of time. Do I write for your sort to read? You don't have bad belle yet you are a mind reader to note that "people just stare and hiss away without reading". Man mi you are a class A clown with how your dislike of individuals now lead you to foolishly allude to knowing what is on the mind of other Nairalanders. Utter childish garbage !!! Conclusive proof that some of you just enjoy silly e-bit.ching - that is why you are best ignored.


I don't know why it is so difficult to understand that not everyone wishes to be apolitical like you. Not everyone wants to sit on the fence savaging everything and everyone. The gross misrule of our Nation means we should all pitch our tent somewhere. Holier-than-thou folks like you , craving to be liked, will never understand that. Like I challenged Funkymallam above, why don't you move beyond conjecture and show where "blatant sycophantic predisposition to EmPeror TiNubu" leads me to defend even his wrongdoing?

Gbawe:
Why should I indulge Nairalanders like you and Rad1cal , carrying bad belle for folks from one thread to the next, in your silly desire for e-fights? Everytime you comment these days, it is to accuse me of one thing or another like a scorned mistress. What is wrong with you? Can you simply not inspect what folks write on a case by case basis instead of deciding you will always attack everything they write? If I speak you say we support Tinubu and Fashola blindly- even as that is not the case. When I don't speak you say we are "evading" threads thereby denying other the right to refrain from passing comment. Dude, you are becoming obsessed with individuals here and you need to reign yourself in and get back to responding to what folks write instead of allowing personal prejudice taint your views every damn time.

Kobojunkie:
^^ are you playing games or what? The very post of yours I responded to was in fact YOUR FIRST POST on this thread.

What exactly is it that you think I am missing since the @Poster you responded to was probably trying to attack people for SELECTIVELY ATTACKING policies . . . and as one of those who is attacking this policy, I felt to direct my response at that, people's right to, unfortunately, selectively attack politicians. lol

Kobojunkie:
Why would I need to tell them that? Of course it is possible to REGRET voting one particular person. What is Selective criticism in that? They voted for the current man and now they regret doing that. Why do you have a problem with them regretting their vote for him? Why do you think it is not Ok for them to now state that they probably should not have voted for him?

Selective Criticism must be stopped? You mean you have the power to stop people from choosing to live as hypocrites??

Kobojunkie:
I can't go back through since we are still on the first page. People voted and people regret .  . .  there has been a couple of articles in the papers by people stating they regretted voting the current man into power. Those who state that people now regret are not speaking of what we are unaware of. So again, I have no clue where you are heading with this but you probably want to go back through your own posts to see that I have tried to keep up with you on this.

Funkymallam:
This is terrible, what on earth are they eating?
But come to think of it, if the senate approves this, that means other occupants of aso rock have been having similar budget and approvals. This is generating much anger and so should it because it was made public.
Only God knws hw much is for funiture allowance(i wonder the need for that yearly, even d senate n house of assembly is guilty of this).
Medical allowances, wardrope allowance, leave allowance and so on.

@Gbawe. Sure, all stomach r equal but some are more equal than others, just as u also gather d crumbs frm BAT and BRF's table, only God knws hw large and tasty that is. (those that live in glass house dnt throw stones).
U have expertly evaded all d thread about d lekki toll brouhahahaha and we all know y.

@op. Dis country is really sick and really need urgent cleansening.

Kobojunkie:
^^^ You did not ask any question. You made an assertion, a baseless one for that matter. Ain't it a bit too late to whine about who the right president ought to have been? I mean the deed is done . .  we have voted and the president has been sworn in. High-time you move on from that and accept what is.

Kobojunkie:
I am sorry but I cannot do that. You see, you thinking that the other is right because some sycophant chooses the other side is also a PROBLEM. . . you are just as much of the problem as the other side is. I am sitting here watching the back and forth and wondering when folks will snap out of this delusion that the other Party PDP/ACN is at fault, when we the Nigerian people continue to get the short end of the stick, no matter what side you sycophants decide on.

You pretend you are not sympathetic to any party yet here you are condemning Nigerians from speaking out on this very issue, or what did you did the post you agreed with there had to say on that? Sure there are hypocrites on both sides but as long as we continue to side step common sense when we feel like it, we will keep the circle going.

Rad1cal:
The right president was not Jona, neither was it Ribadu or Buhari.

The right president with brains was Pat Utomi and i wonder why you pitched your tent among one of the trio

or can the mentioned trio stand Pat Utomi breath for breath in substance .

Kobojunkie:
When do we get tired of playing into their delusions, and demand no more lies be told us, both by ACN leaders and PDP leaders . . .  infact all of them? Why is it that when a leader runs into trouble, he creates an OJUJU for the Nigerian people to fixate on, while he continues in the back to do use the fears to bolster his plan?

warrior01:
No matter how they gather with their hypocritical protest, I bet you it shall come to nought. Is the so called labour not part of the problems we are facing in this country? Is pengassan and nupeng that have been corroborating with the so called cabals to milk this country dry not part of them? The fact is that we are too hypocritical in this country with the way we carry out our selective condemnation of any idea that comes from the Fg no matter how laudable it is without even proferring any reasonable alternative.

where is eko ole?

2AMLasgidi:
Humnmmm na wah oo. I doubt if you live in lagos at all? This is a common sight on Lagos Road. [size=16pt]Did you see the STV Report at all[/size]? Showing about 7 Buses loaded with boys reffered to as "LASU Students" arriving at the protest point with cheers from some  of them. The Protest did not go violent until the "LASU" student showed up. Meanwhile, None of the Media Houses reported Thugs with any evidence. In this age of technology and telecoms advancement in Nigeria how will thugs come to distrupt a protest and nobody could record any convincing picture either motion or still. Couldn't this picture be that of the so called LASU student when they were leaving?
Wetin LASU students with Tolling of Lekki Expressway?

The burden of Convincing Evidence behoves on the people that made any allegation!!!  QED

2AMLasgidi:
Can you imagine some people drove to dToll Plaza & refused to pay in protest in what seems like an organised protest caused d traffic. Will that change the mind of LCC from collecting toll? For a successful agitation sensible options must be explored/

Akainzo:
Obviously you missed that part that said "Let me humour you a little" or even this one "even with your unsubstantiated story of that you spent 2 hours on that road today"! What both means is that your claims are patently false, nothing more and thus I need not obfuscate anything.

When I humoured you, I asked you think think about a converse theorem going with your thinking. So the ACN govt is a fraud cos I a citizen of Lagos State chose to debate with you the merits or otherwise of a toll plaza on Lekki road?  

Akainzo:
Hmmm, let me humour you a little, and go even with your unsubstantiated story of that you spent 2 hours on that road today. Now can you imagine how long you would have spent on it if the upgrade/ or expansion was not done? And now imagine how it would be on a Monday morning rush without the expansion, that would tell you something.  

otokx:
^^^ are you referring to the alternative route?

gidiMonsta:
Who pays 300k/month in taxes? Haba make una dey lie small small na, the only way that is remotely possible is if you earn over N5m/month and if thats the case, pple like you should be taxed more to accelerate development.
