Festac Town is one of the oldest planned communities in Nigeria.

This expansive residential estate was originally built to host participants at FESTAC 77 – an African Festival of Arts and Culture that held in 1977.

At the time it was built and commissioned, Festac town was a model residential estate. It was the first of its kind in Africa. Festac town, then, boasted of world-class social and public amenities. But most importantly, the estate featured access to public transportation and an excellent road network.

Indeed, Festac town - at its early stage - was a choice residential location in Nigeria.

Sadly, today, most of the one-time excellent amenities and public infrastructure in Festac town have collapsed or enormously deteriorated. For instance, the expansive road networks in Festac are in atrocious conditions.

Note, Festac town is managed by the Federal Housing Authority (FHA). However, the Federal, State and Local Government all lay claim to the management of the estate.

Each tier of government occasionally issue the residents with various charges ranging from valuation fees, local government levies to tenement rates.

The battle for the control of Festac Town has lingered on between the Federal government and the Lagos State and to the detriment of the residents of the Estate.

Today, Festac suffers from a terrific neglect by the governments. There are no functional infrastructure. Public infrastructure that still exist are in atrocious conditions. Notable of these infrastructure are the network of roads.

As a result, driving on the roads in Festac have become a very bumpy and unpleasant experience – no thanks to the various roads there that are replete with crater-size potholes, eroded road surfaces and collapsed portions of some roads.

Indeed, Festac town is a classic example of a place with absolutely no presence of government.

Festac town is located in Amuwo Odofin Local Government Area of Lagos state.

Interestingly, the headquarters of the Amuwo Odofin Local Government is situated in Festac.

The Chairman of Amuwo Odofin Local Government is Executive Chairman, Engineer Valentine Oluwaseyi Buraimoh.

The Governor of Lagos state is Akinwunmi Ambode.

The Federal Housing Authority (FHA) reports to the Federal Government of Nigeria currently headed by President Mohammadu Buhari.

This one no be potholes naaaa! Just cross the "expressway" into Satellite Town and you will see the true definition of potholes. Fuel tankers have totally wrecked the roads.

I will take some pictures and share so you can see for yourself.

Ayazor54:
The Senator representing Sokoto South Senatorial District, Alhaji Ibrahim Abdullahi Danbaba has boasted that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, will win 10 northern states in the 2019 general elections.

Danbaba was among the lawmakers who recently dumped the All Progressives Congress, APC, to the PDP at the National Assembly.

Speaking to select journalists in Sokoto on Sunday, the senator said he did not regret dumping the APC on whose platform he became Senator because they were not being carried along.

Explaining further, he stated that he left the party because of lack of equity, justice and fairness to all members.

“The APC-led federal government has derailed from its mandate and failed to meet the yearnings of Nigerians,” he added.

Danbaba, who is also the vice chairman of the House Committee on Army, lamented that the APC has failed to address the three core issues facing the country, which are those of security, economy and corruption for which it was voted into power in 2015.

“I am the Vice Chairman of the Senate Committee on Army and I know how much that has been expended on security in the country. We are facing security challenges in Zamfara, Kaduna, Sokoto and many states and people are being killed,” he said.

He added, “No strategy has been adopted to tackle security. Villagers in Zamfara are now running to local government headquarters. So, the situation is getting worse in the country.”

Speaking further, the lawmaker stated that the President was being misled by selfish people who surrounded him for their personal benefits.

Danbaba was confident that the PDP would take over Benue, Kaduna, Kano, Plateau, Kogi, Kwara, Bauchi, Gombe, Adamawa and Sokoto states in 2019.

He also said that the balance of power was now tilted in favour of the PDP.

The senator accused the APC government of fighting perceived enemies in the name of fighting corruption, citing the travails of the Senate President.

http://www.vondanews.com/2019-sen-danbaba-names-10-northern-states-pdp-will-win/

Why only 10 northern states?

What not all 36 states and the FCT?

Hmmm!

I really would like Senator Dino Melaye to go and read Aesop's fable about The Boy who Cried Wolf!!!

The boy did not end well at all.

I think the fundamental question to ask after such an order is: Where do they plan to relocate the trucks to after evacuation?

Wherever you relocate them to, they'd still be a nuisance.

As usual with us in this country, we are expending needless energy on treating the symptoms of a crappy system rather than fixing the root cause.

Open up other ports across the country and you won't need any taskforce to get those trucks off Lagos roads within 6 months.

Until we have a leader who has the political will to make that happen, we will only continue to come up with one ineffective cosmetic solution after another.

By the time they tell you how much has gone into mobilising this "taskforce" to forcefully evacuate the trucks off the roads, you will be shocked.

[quote author=GodblessNig247 post=69715846][/quote]News is supposed to be FACTS!!! Not conjectures, presumptions or assumptions.

News is not supposed to be speculative or based on the ubiquitous and usually unnamed "sources".

The headline of a news story is supposed to correlate with the body of the story.

So I ask you again: Where in this damned news story is it stated that PMB "fumes" about Oshiomole's statement?

The statement only said they met. Anything could have been discussed during the meeting. It is unethical for a newspaper to deign to presume what they discussed and proceed to report it as news as if they were privy to details of the engagement.

Where in this entire report did the President "fume" about the APC Chairman's comment?

This is the era of "Fake News" and disinformation. It is an era where people must learn to read beyond the headlines.

What is scary is that even mainstream media outlets aren't exempted from this frightening trend. Vanguard, Punch and other such newspapers are now outdoing bloggers in the race to propagate fake news in order to sell newspapers.

It is such a shame.

You could be right...or wrong. The Nigeria cyber law seems to give government an edge to reclaim the domain if they want to.

Headline: Social Media IS a technology for the criminally minded.

Actual Statement: Social Media is a technology AVAILABLE to the criminally minded.

The first is a sensitisation guaranteed to sell newspapers.

The second is one calling for caution about what you read on social media. Also an advise to read beyond the headlines always.

Was the woman wasteful? Yes! Frying 4 eggs for one meal doesn't show her as someone that will be able to manage resources...and this isn't about the cost of the egg. It is the attitude that is in question here. Discarding the remaining eggs in anger shows she easily loses control of her temper and over reacts...plus that was the ultimate show of wastefulness.

Was the slap necessary in correcting her? Hell No! The guy would have made more sense if he had TALKED to her about the situation. There is NO reason to allow the situation degenerate to physical violence and shows the guy off as someone who cannot manage his temperament. Correction is better received when done in love and understanding rather than brashly and condescendingly.

Altogether, the couple need to get their acts together and get to know each other better, as they both come across as immature and ill-prepared for marriage.

https://www.thecable.ng/dont-apply-exemption-certificate-says-ex-nysc-director

This man is probably speaking of the ideal situation...but we all know the situation in the NYSC is far from ideal.

The scheme is and has been the hotbed of corruption and corruption practices in the last 20 years.

Corpers are deployed and redeployed mostly on man know man and cash and carry basis. I served in Gombe and I have a friend who first got redeployed to Lagos, and then was issued an exemption certificate so he could relocate to Canada for further studies. He did this thru the help of an uncle in the NYSC who fed a fake medical report into the system to facilitate her exemption.

I also know people we were posted to Gombe together who barely spent a day in their place of primary assignment but the ZI clears them every month and covers them up for a payment in cash or kind.

The NYSC posting and exemption can and has been easily manipulated so many times in the past and this man knows it so he should spare us the sermon.

In one of the other pictures I saw, one of the black clad security men was clutching a Tavor Assault rifle which is standard issue for DSS operatives on VIP bodyguard duties.

Nothing suspicious here. Those men are DSS operatives attached to the governor.

Senator Melaye wants protection from the same police he accused of trying to kill him. The same police that made him jump out of a moving car? The same police he has bad-mouthed at every turn of the way?

Wonderfully ironic.

Masterppower:
I have sent this to the US Secretary of state and they have confirmed monitoring the situation in ekiti..... Buhari is in deep shit already...



That animalistic Buhari must be removed or Nigeria will break

Please try and send it to POTUS Donald Trump, There's May, Angela Merkel, Gutteres of the UN too. Sending to only US secretary of state might not make the kind of impact you want.

Don't forget to copy Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King Jnr. too.

Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!! Fayose is the comedian of the century!

So police fires tear gas at a crowd including the governor and it just so happens That the governor is the one that collapsed because all the others are around him are immune to teargas fumes.

How convenient!

Mtn cannot attempt 1% of the rubbish they are doing here in Nigeria in south Africa. How can you outsource 80% of your employment slots in a multinational making billions from the said country daily? And thats why Workers can be dropped at will since its a contract job with little or no regulation from the Labour ministry

None of what you posted justifies the destruction of property and assault on innocent employees of MTN by NLC officials. There are better and more civilised methods of negotiating employee issues. Unionism isn't a licence for brigandage and thuggery. The NLC should be ashamed.

@POLITICSNGR

General Overseer of the Living faith church alias Faith Tabernacle, Bishop David Oyedepo has reacted to the recent killings in the Plateau state, alleging that there was an 'Islamization Agenda'.

Oyedepo also laid heavy curses on the perpetrators of the killings adding that if nothing is done soon, Nigeria would sink into a 'religious war'.

He stated further that the attacks going on in the north were only occurring in Christian communities, saying there was 'an Islamization agenda'. He described the Fulani Herdsmen, Boko Haram and the 'Authorities backing them' as 'Troublers of the Church'

PoliticsNGR has gotten footage of the Bishop's fiery speech.

Watch the Video HERE

https://politicsngr.com/plateau-killings-islamization-agenda-war-looming-oyedepo-video/

The killings across the land have nothing to do with any stupid "Islamization Agenda"!!!!!

The killers do not care whether you are muslim or christian. They will kill you if you stand in their way.

Politicians are spreading fear across the land using blood thirsty killers and preachers like this are helping them further their divide and rule agenda with their mindless divisive rants.

The day we as Nigerians look beyond the symptoms and treat the root cause, that day shall we have peace.

God help us all.

The string of calamity across the nation is obviously been engineered to further some diabolic political agenda....YES!

But that doesn't absolve the President and his government of responsibility for their sluggishness in fishing out these enemies of state and meting out justice to them.

The President's primary responsibility is the protection of the lives of Nigerians...both those who voted for him and those that didn't. As a leader, he must have the foresight and vision to know what remedies are needed, and the courage to take the sometimes painful decision to apply the needed remedies.

On this singular objective, I am afraid the President has failed woefully.

These officers could have been murdered by anyone.

The way we are going, every murder is going to be attributed to "fulani herdsmen" and the true culprits will get away.

Every would be bride or groom goes the extra mile to make a good first impression on the inlaws to smoothen the way for further discussions.

It isn't just an African thing, it is so all over the world. Even in ultra liberal societies like the US, u have bride's wearing decent gowns and toning down the loud makeup when it is time to meet the inlaws. You have grooms, doing away with tee shirts and jeans for suits all in a bid to make a good impression.

As a man, I would be wary about a woman who makes an unnecessary fuss about a mere nose ring when she's going to meet my parents. We aren't even married yet and she's already setting me up for unnecessary conflicts with my parents?

She is obviously still immature and not ready for marriage if she does not understand the need to pick her battles carefully.

This National Assembly want to impeach PMB for allegedly trampling on the privilege of members and "persecuting" them.

This National Assembly cannot even guarantee the rights of its own members to speak freely without fear of suspension or other sanctions.

This National Assembly needs to start by impeaching itself before impeaching anyone else.

You "mistakenly" slept with your sister-in-law.

Hmmmmm so let me see: She was lying around naked, with her legs spread apart and you tripped and fell on her thinking you landed on a cushion. Then I'm guessing that after a few minutes, you realised what you tripped and fell on wasn't a cushion on the floor afterall abi

She also "mistakenly" slept with your driver and gateman, then fired them to ensure such a "mistake" never happens again.

If I were in your shoes, I would proactively fire the cook and gardener because you and your wife are prone to "make mistakes".

Weldone!

Where in this stupid article did the President say the Nigerian Army was soft on Biafra?

All this nonsense just to get hits for a stupid blog.

When this war that you are stoking starts,we will all be here.

May God help us all.

The campaign organization of the Ekiti State Deputy Governor and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Prof Kolapo Olusola Eleka, has called for greater vigilance among voters in the State against agents of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

It claimed they were going round the state buying Voters’ Cards.

The campaign organization said it was alarmed at the report of the arrest of one Miss Ogunyemi Temitope, who led a group of people to Aiyede Ekiti to collect more than 30 voters cards and account numbers from unsuspecting electorates, questioning why the APC was desperate to prevent people from voting on the election day.

Director of Media and Publicity of Kolapo Olusola Campaign Organisation, Lere Olayinka, said in a statement on Thursday, that the said Ogunyemi Temitope was apprehended by vigilant people of Aiyede-Ekiti, Oye Local Government Area at about 12 noon today, Thursday, while collecting voters cards and making copies of same and at the same time collecting account numbers.

Olayinka said; “Today, eagle-eyed people of Aiyede-Ekiti apprehended one Ogunyemi Temitope and her accomplices, who were buying voters card. They were taken to the palace of the Attah of Aiyede Ekiti, Oba Oba Abdumumini Orisagbemi, from where they were moved to the Aiyede Ekiti police station.

“The lady, who claimed to be an election observer, was said to have collected voters cards and account numbers of more than 30 people, promising that N28, 000 will be paid into their bank accounts. She said that buying of voters cards under the guise of election observers was being done across the State that those whose voters cards were collected in exchange for N28, 000 will not be able to vote.

“Some of the cards already collected belonged to Adebiyi Adekunle, with his UBA Account number 2077932145, Omotoso Abiodun, Ajayi Taiwo Amos, Bamidele Funmilayo, Fayose Mary, Ojo Emmanuel Kehinde, Irewole Yinka Motun, Olowokere Titilayo, Ojo Bamidele Oluwaseun and others.

“It later took the intervention of the Attah of Aiyede Ekiti and the Olumojo of Imojo Ekiti, Oba, who visited the police station for Ogunyemi Temitope and her collaborators to be released with strong warning never to come to Aiyede Ekiti and its environs again.

“It should be noted that we have earlier raised the alarm over a Form being distributed by the APC under the guise of Ekiti Development Front, purportedly for empowerment. It is one of the sinister plots by
the APC to deactivate voters card, thereby preventing thousands of electorate from voting on July 14, 2018.

“The evil plot is aimed at first collecting Voters Cards numbers and later asking for submission of original Voters Cards for Biometric Exercise so as to be qualified for the fake empowerment scheme.

I think I'm going to have to join the "PICTURES OR I DON'T BELIEVE IT" crew on this one.

It seems strange that this "APC agent" was caught buying voters cards, taken to the palace, taken to the police station, from where she was released with "a stern warning never to return".

The Fayose that I know would have milked this to paint the APC black with pictures across social media and every newspaper. I think this is just a situation of crying wolf in this case.

ExAngel007:
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC
Kaduna office, today May 31, 2018 arraigned the
former Executive Governor of Kaduna State Mukhtar
Ramalan Yero; former Minister of State, Nuhu Somo
Wya; former People's Democratic Party, PDP, Kaduna
State Chairman, Abubakar Haruna Gaya and the former
Secretary to the State Government, Hamza Ishaq.

They were arraigned before Justice S.M Shuaibu of the
Federal High Court Kaduna on a Four Count charge
bordering on Criminal Conspiracy, Bribery, Money
Laundering and Criminal Diversion of Funds to the
tune of N7000,000,000 (Seven Hundred Million Naira)
only.

They all pleaded not guilty to the charges. Lead
prosecution counsel, Joshua Saidi then prayed the
Court for a date for commencement of trial, while
remanding the accused persons in prison custody.

Lead defence counsel, Yunus Ustaz Usman (SAN)
made application for bail orally but Justice Shuaibu
refused. The Court ruled that formal applications for
bail of the accused must be filed. He therefore
adjourned the matter to the 6th of June, 2018 for
hearing of bail application. He also ruled that the
accused be remanded in prison custody.

Their arraignment followed a petition alleging criminal
diversion of One Hundred and Fifteen Million Dollars
equivalent to Twenty Three Billion, Two Hundred and
Ninety Nine Million, Seven Hundred and Five
Thousand Naira (N 23, 299,705,000.00) NNPC
missing funds some years ago by the former Minister
of Petroleum Resources Mrs Diezani Alison Madueke.
The missing sum was later traced to have funded the
bribing of officials across the 36 state of the
federation for the 2015 presidential election through
Fidelity Bank.

Investigations into the case has so far revealed that
the over Twenty Billion Naira was wired to some top
PDP and INEC officials across the country which was
specifically disbursed through various branches of the
Fidelity Bank with Kaduna State benefitting over N800
million (Eight Hundred Million Naira) only in two
instalments of N700,000,000 and N190,000,000.

The sum was received and acknowledged by Nuhu
Somo Waya, Abubakar Gaya Haruna and Hamza Ishaq
on behalf of the State for onward sharing to INEC staff
spread across the 23 Local Government Areas in
Kaduna State.

Count one of the charge reads: "that you, Mukhtar
Ramalan Yero (Whilst being the Executive Governor of
Kaduna State ), Nuhu Somo Wya (Whilst being a former
Minister of the Fedearl Republic of Nigeria), Ishaq
Hamza (whilst being the Secretary to the Kaduna State
Government) and Abubakar Gaya Haruna (Whilst being
the Chairman PDP Kaduna State Chapter), sometime in
2015 in Kaduna within the jurisdiction of this
Honourable Court (Federal High Court) did conspire
amongst yourselves to commit a crime to wit: indirectly
taking possession of the of N700, 000, 000 (seven
hundred million Naira) which you ought to have known
forms part of unlawful activity to wit: bribery and
thereby committed an offence contrary to Section
18(a)of the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act 2011
(as ammended) in 2012 and punishable under Section
15(3) of the Same Act."

good but will they give way for the not too young?

No one is going to "give way" for the young to run. The young need to step up and take it.

Some of these "old men" you see nowadays were in the vanguard of the young turks that fought for independence from the colonial masters.

This is a great start. Here's hoping this development will ginger the interest of younger people in politics.

Until young people are able to play a bigger and more strategic role in the political system, this will remain a paper achievement.

Baltazarcus:
Northern Christians calls God _ Ubangiji

Lol.

Half mark. Northern christians call God "Allah".

Ubangiji is one of his numerous suffixes describing his greatness. There are a lot of those suffixes used to describe God in the Hausa language.

It's just like the English word is God. But he can be called God Almighty, God the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, etc.

Let me shock you further by letting you know that northern christians answer names like Musa, Abdullahi, Usman, Jubril and even Mohammed.

All of these religious and ethnic differences are needless. We can all leave together in peace if we set our hearts to it.

alBHAGDADI:
Nice one FFK. I hereby dub you a Crusader.

The Arabic inscription on the Nigeria Army coat of arms is Nasrunminallah. It means ''Victory Comes From God Alone''. Checking closely, you will notice that the word we get as the English word for God in the translation is Allah. Lying Muslims will also tell you that Allah means God or is the Arabic equivalent of the English word God. This is a big lie which I will prove below.

In the Islamic Shahada, which is the words you swear when you want to become a Muslim, which most of you are aware of cos that's what this forum makes you swear before you comment on an Islamic thread, we find the word for God which clearly isn't Allah. Look Below.

The Shahada: There is no god but Allah

In Arabic: La ilaha illallah

The word for god is ilaha. If Muslims lie by saying that allah means god, then the appropriate translation will be 'There is no god but god''. This doesn't make any sense. Hence, the reason why they put the name of their god Allah there. Can you all now see that Allah is not the word for God but the name of a god, the Muslim god?

Why do we have the name of the Muslim god on the chest of our soldiers many of whom are adherents of other faiths? Is Nigeria an Islamic nation? Are the Christians, Atheists, traditionalists who are soldiers in the army now to be called soldiers of Allah?

This must be changed. As a Muslim,before you go on the defensive, ask yourself if it is fair to other faith.

What do northern Christians call God?

First of all, I am a strong believer in God and his power to miraculously deliver me from the snares of the devil.

However, this Apostle's testimony "get as e be."

I am sure that as a well-traveled gentleman, he knows all scheduled flights are displayed on electronic boards all around the airport, VIP lounges inclusive. It is the duty of all travelers to check the schedule and listen to boarding announcements repeatedly announced over the PA system.

Also as a VIP, I can almost bet he has a retinue of protocol people at his beck and call and has no business worrying about his flight departure time.

Thirdly, I wonder how some ruffians in HIACE buses confessed to being hired to assassinate Apostle and no one heard about it until Apostle's "revelation" during service. What happened to the miscreants? Were they handed over to the police? Were they all set free or silenced?

I think security agencies need to visit the Apostle to get more information so as to prevent this kind of threats in the future.

I am in PH for an assignment and I used this airport a few days ago when coming in. I was an equal measure of shocked and embarrassed at the state of the facility. Terrible and disgraceful.
