Yes SA has good tourism potentials but it would be a bad idea for tourists.
No amount of image laundry will clean South Africa from the threat of Xenophobia and robberies. Black South Africans have become a cancer to progress.
The rate of insecurity in SA is one that won't encourage tourists.
SA govt should do their homework properly before throwing their doors open to tourists via visa free packages. Just one more xenophobic attack on foreigners and they will wait for donkey years for tourists to visit.

Chai..
From your comment alone, it is clear what your level of reasoning is.
You are still in the shackles of ethnicity.
Edo doesn't belong to Benin. History is only as accurate as the bias of the writer.
And you didn't drive anyone from Benin, only despotic and barbaric acts led others to leave and hence a once great empire shrunk.
The only infidel walking the surface of the earth is that person who's an unrepentant ignoramus bound by mundane things. And we ever wonder why Nigeria is backward. Diversity is meant for strength and prosperity while nepotism means reverse gear.

osazsky:
minority na minority, edo belongs to Benin read ur history books .do u know that d urhobos are more than d hausa in nigeria.i will not leave my bro and vote for an infidel who we gave land to,or drove from Benin to d forest God forbid

You say Oshiomhole is minority?
Who is minority in Edo state? Do you know the population of Afenmai people to call them minority?
I think that's a shallow statement and a divisive one at that!
Edo state is not owned by any one tribe. Benin don't own the state and the Obaseki-oshiomhole brawl has no tribal sentiment attached to it except for shallow minded followers of the said politicians.
The power brokers in Edo are not all Benin men just so you know.
Obaseki is a dull politician but a good technocrat and administrator. If not for Oshiomhole, Benin would have been way worse than an embarrassment. If you recall the lucky igbinedion days you would know the calibre of Benin politicians.
A little advice for Obaseki is to concentrate on his duty and leave party politics alone cause politicians can be deadly. They may sting him hard in the end. It is unwise not to have political backing of those ahead of you in the game. There's always a price.

Ewedegubbler:


Obaseki is a Bini man, they have by far the largest voting population in the state whilst Oshiomhole comes from in insignificant minority. This is Nigeria and when the chips are down, the ethnic card takes over. this is a battle that oshiomhole cannot win,...

Internet mumu don too much for naija. Youths be like say Dem worse pass the leaders sef! No brains at all. Only cheap drug abuse and twerking! I.Q for naija youth is fast diminishing.

NIXEL:
Bro calm down nah
You don vex be dat....

A lot of comments here shows how stupid and brainless many are.
Especially the ladies. No brains! Only how to twerk.
That is an open drainage system which is handling the massive water that could have wrecked havoc if it wasn't constructed in the first place. Flooding happens everywhere in the world.
The main objective is to channel the water and contain the flood which that drainage is actually doing from the photographs shown.
So all the mumu comments should stop!

The blades are likely bent such that it's not sucking in air to distribute.

Nice tutorial... But what could be responsible for a ceiling fan which rotates at a very high speed, all blades are in good shape, but it doesn't circulate air at all... You can't feel it's breeze

Response needed sir

This is an assembly plant. Indoor doesn't manufacture anything. That's the reason you can't see pictures of engine production and stuff....not even production of the plastic parts and stuff.
It's just an assembly plant with the parts imported.

I owe you one chilled bottle of whatever you drink.
You truly understand how these guys operate.

OlujobaSamuel:
Hmmmmmmm, If the report is true according to disclosed facts, then the 250k job loss is more of a blackmail than reality.
For those that will quote without reading;
1 the company was given a waiver as sole manufacturer with access to fx
2 they found importation cheaper and used the free fx access to import then stopped manufacturing
3 fg discovered and cancelled the waiver
4 buyers see no sense in buying from middle men as the company is now one, so they import directly
NB
No 250k job loss as most are already into the importation

jomonic:


Did you hear that Anambra State purchased 1000 vehicles from him sometime

And it took how long to deliver them?
Leave cheap sentiments aside. Innoson can't meet up demand and you can't dictate or pause progress just to grow innoson alone. Its an open field for competition.
At the same time, if all those buses were manufactured in Nigeria, the better for us.

jomonic:
Innosen could have supplied these buses.

Oga please be realistic with your comment. How on earth can Innoson produce or supply these buses when Innoson can't meet up with supplying 100 vehicles in the shortest possible time? Has innoson delivered all the backlogs yet? Until innoson introduces automation, robotics and stuff, they can never meet demand and drag for fare share of the market.

Nonsense! Shame dey catch me

Are you aware that the forces behind these means of transport don't ever want us to move forward? It is a shame that Lagos doesn't have a transport system yet since we entered democratic government. A big shame.
And please forget it, lagos may never get it right in the next 30 years so long these men keep enjoying the agbero money. So called mega slum.

allsaint2000:
Wow.


Before we assemble on this thread to attack the Kenyans for bringing to fore this painful reality, lets take some time out to do a bit of soul-searching.

Mind you, this is the means of public transport in the 6th biggest economy in Africa.

Nah.
El-Rufai will never be president of Nigeria. Nuhu Ribadu may make it there but don't be fooled, Rotational presidency still exists. It will never work to retain another fulani man after PMB leaves that seat.
Of course they are carefully planning but have no idea what tomorrow holds.

Boeing 737 from Addis to Nairobi crashes with 157 on board —Ethiopian PM’s office
Published
March 10, 2019
An Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 crashed Sunday morning en route from Addis Ababa to Nairobi with 149 passengers and eight crew believed to be on board, Ethiopian Airlines said as Ethiopia’s prime minister offered condolences to passengers’ families.

“We hereby confirm that our scheduled flight ET 302 from Addis Ababa to Nairobi was involved in an accident today,” the airline said in a statement.


“It is believed that there were 149 passengers and eight crew on board the flight but we are currently confirming the details of the passenger manifest for the flight.”

The airline said, “Search and rescue operations are in progress and we have no confirmed information about survivors or any possible casualties.”

The plane took off at 8:38 am (0638 GMT) from Bole International Airport and “lost contact” six minutes later near Bishoftu, a town some 60 kilometres (37 miles) southeast of Addis Ababa by road.


Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed’s office tweeted it “Would like to express its deepest condolences to the families of those that have lost their loved ones on Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 on regularly scheduled flight to Nairobi, Kenya this morning.”

Ethiopian Airlines said it would send staff to the accident scene to “do everything possible to assist the emergency services.”

It would also set up a passenger information centre and a dedicated telephone number for family and friends of people who may have been on the flight.

The Boeing 737-800MAX is the same type of plane as the Indonesian Lion Air jet that crashed last October, 13 minutes after takeoff from Jakarta, killing all 189 people on board.


The last major accident involving an Ethiopian Airlines passenger plane was a Boeing 737-800 that exploded after taking off from Lebanon in 2010, killing 83 passengers and seven crew.

Sadly many people calling others zombies are the real zombies themselves.
I am happy i'm not the only one who shares this thought too.
Spot on bro

We are going to teach Buhari some lessons by voting Atiku
===
You still don't get it. It is not about Buhari; it is about the collective destiny of our nation. Buhari has achieved his life dream of becoming a President. The dude is 76 years, he has nothing else to lose at his age. Think for a minute, imagine a government controlled by Fayose, Dino Melaye, Saraki, Fani Kayode, with Onnoghen reinstated as the CJN; Obasanjo as their godfather, Dasuki back to his office.

The 2019 election is not about voting Buhari, it is about preventing PDP from coming back to ruin Nigeria. These guys will never make the mistake of 2015. They are going to completely invade the Nigeria Minting Company, not even the Central Bank. Especially when Atiku already promised them Amnesty from prosecution on charges of corruption. That's what should worry us. We can only improve on the little we have, not by going back to our tormentors.

You think Obasanjo just forgave Atiku easily? He has no option because he and his peers no longer have direct access to the treasury, Obasanjo has never fought for anybody in his life. It's always about his interests. He went against GEJ because he thought he could control Buhari. Now he is romancing Atiku.

Atiku will promise to worship Satan if that will guarantee his access to power.

That's why all right-thinking Nigeria must not allow themselves to be hoodwinked. It is not about voting Buhari, it is about not allowing Atiku and his band of PDP rogues from gaining access to our treasury.

Rule of engagement for ballot box snatchers abi. Nor be una fault. Lets romance mandate robbers, let's pet them and encourage them. You think ballot box snatchers do it without arms? When they show up, even you would run for safety, we can't sacrifice everything on altar of partisan politics.
The statement was harsh but on point!

XaintJoel20:
Buratai got this wrong. Inasmuch as I would not advice the military to disobey a constituted authority, they should understand that there is what is called "Rule of Engagement" in the military and beside, Nigeria is not being govern by a military dictator who wakes up one morning and starts churning out degrees.
Nigeria's democracy is a creation of the constitution and the constitution supersede any decree made by anyone, president or otherwise.

Do not be fooled o. It could as well have been done by PDP to give APC bad name.
Sabin gari is usually pdp zone....
Just saying

Oga be honest and truthful. For all the Jona years, we slept on that road in serious traffic jams.

ZombiePUNISHER:
This was done by Jonathan.


I ply the route

This is fraud! Of what benefit? Will the bulshit education make their graduands successful in life? Just creating class for those who have money to spend

Nice

Acidosis:


Yes, that's how big corporations survive (Nestlé, General Electric, PZ, Johnson and Johnson, among others adopt this strategy).

MonopolyMerger and Acquisition is a business strategy. Your goal as a businessman is to make enough to buy up competitors/competition. Whatever you decide to do with the acquired company is nobody's business.

Cocacola may decide to retain Chi and make the subsidiary its own "competitor" - another globally practised competitive strategy. Build your brand and your competition (just as Tecno is doing with Infinix products). While consumers are busy arguing on what brand to buy (Tecno or Infinix), the makers just sit back and count money from both ends.

This acquisition to me looks like Coca Cola is buying Chi to control Chi's market penetration. Coca Cola can buy any company and kill it if it feels threatened.

Hope its not the Akachukwu I met here sometime ago ?
Well....I didn't deal.

luvluvluv:
Good evening everyone. It's almost yr end and would like to thank everyone who has genuinely of help in this race. So much tnx to u all. I know 2019 holds good things for us in Jesus name. Amen!

I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO USE THIS MEDIUM TO BRING TO UR NOTICE A SCAM AMONG US. HIS NAME IS AKACHUKWU.

SOME TIME AGO I CAME HERE LOOKING FOR HELP WHICH I GOT. IN THE PROCESS I STARTED COMMUNICATION WITH THIS MAN. WE AGREED I CONTRACT MY CDR WORK WHEREIN I WOULD PAY PART AND THEN BALANCE HIM AFTER EVERYTHING.

INITIALLY WE AGREED I PAID 15K UPFRONT. LATER THIS MAN BECAME SO DESPERATE THAT I SHOULD PAY HIM AS HE HAD ALREADY STARTED THE WORK. I SENSED SCAM IN HIM JUST THEN HE BEGGED ME HE NEEDED TO WRITE PTE AND I SHOULD HELP HIM WITH 30K UPFRONT AS AGAINST THE EARLIER AGREED 15K(for work wey him never even start). I DECIDED TO EXTEND A KIND HEART AND BEHOLD I MADE SOME CALLS COZ I DIDN'T HAVE IT. I SENT THIS MAN 30K!

ALONG THE LINE, HE SUGGESTED ANOTHER OCCUPATION TO ME THAT I SHOULD GIVE IT A TRY.
HE TOOK HIS PTE AND SMASHED THE 10PNTS HE SAID HE WAS AIMING AT AS HIS APPLICATION HAS BEEN IN THE POOL FOR ALMOST A YR.

FAST FORWARD A MONTH LATER, THIS MAN NEVER TALKED ABOUT THE MONEY HE OWES ME.

I CALLED HIM ONE DAY AND THE IDIOT SAID TO ME THAT THE 30K SERVES THE NEW OCCUPATION IDEA HE GAVE ME. JEEZ!!

SO I ASKED HIM..... DID WE MAKE ANY AGREEMENT ON THAT? NO WAS HIS REPLY. AFTER MUCH TALKS HE FINALLY AGREED HE WILL PAY. TILL TODAY THIS MAN HAS REFUSED TO REFUND EVEN A PENNY FROM MY MONEY.

I TOOK TO THIS THREAD TO WRITE THIS COZ I KNOW HE IS CURRENTLY SCAMMING OTHERS AND HE WILL SCAM AGAIN!

BEFORE I FORGET, I MADE HIM A REFERAL EARLIER AND TO MY SUPRISE THE LADY I REFERRED TO HIM STOPPED THE WHOLE THING. TILL TODAY SHE NEVER TOLD ME WHY SHE STOPPED. I GUESS SHE WAS QUICK TO SEE THINGS.

AKACHUKWU! BEWARE I DID NOT DASH U MY MONEY. BUT UNLESS UR RIGHT SHALL U ESCAPE WHAT BEFALLS ON U. I HAVE PLEADED WITH U AND U TOOK NO WARNINGS. UR THE MAN I TRIED TO HELP AND U TURNED BACK TO STAB ME.

Did you watch the video?
That junior officer was rude. Very rude.
A senior officer talking to a subordinate and he was on dark shades and making a call like the senior officer was nothing to him.
Will that junior officer take that kind of behaviour from a civilian?
Nobody will dismiss that senior officer.

Doctorfitz:
Normally this isn't possible. It's a dismissable offence.
Notwithstanding any rank difference u CAN'T assault a personnel.

If he's an other rank, you can give him PD, u can charge him but assault? Unless the personnel no know himself. It's a chargeable offence with dismissal as judgement.

Na una be the BH and ISIS!

Is this a park truly? I can't see anything worth calling it a park from the pictures seen so far.
Upload more pictures if any. Is it just one monkey in the park? No other animals?

Is it this murderer Abba Moro? This same man who scammed NYSC members, crowded them in stadium to die for non existent Immigration jobs which he reserved for himself?
This same man that ran job racketeering with his wife and GEJ couldn't punish him. It surely won't be well with Abba Moro's generation. The more reason we must be cautious of returning back to these guys who enjoyed and plundered our reserves.
Where's the fake federal task force job now?

Hope this guy is not from the Adigwe Rex family I know oh......which kind embarrassment be dis na?

GistmeBlog:
EFCC has arrested three suspected internet fraudsters in a sting operation.

The suspects: Adugwe Rex Odinaka(aka Alhaji Ugly Rex), Igwe Prince Chukwuebuka (aka Trad Marley) and Ifeanyi Nicholas Chukwulenwa, were arrested in Omoku, Rivers State.

Preliminary investigations showed that Chukwuebuka and Chukwulenwa were into romance and dating scams and had successfully defrauded three Americans in the process.

Odinaka, on his part, engaged in laundering of fraudulently obtained gift cards. The suspects are operating in a syndicate.

Other members of the syndicate are being tracked and funds fraudulently realized from the scam are also being tracked.

I suspect foreign powers over this ajaokuta steel wahala. It was built by the Russians.
It has never operated for once....since all these years. No Nigerian govt will ever come out clean to tell her people the truth about it.

That guy who called you sawdust brain was mean...hahahaha.
Oga, innoson is not automated and will take forever to deliver just 100 buses. Innoson still has backlog of orders not yet delivered and you're talking of innoson? When innoson grows in capacity they will be able to handle bulk orders.

uzohrome:
Why not patronize our own, INNOSON MOTORS affordable and durable. Nigeria is a joke.

I've read a lit of comments from fools here on Nairaland who don't know what colonialism means. Many of you spewing rubbish and wishing american invasion of Nigeria. Una no well.
If you guys can't see the signs that U.S was never happy with Nigeria playing the big brother in West Africa, if you guys can't ask what some american soldiers were doing in the BH forest and were killed by Niger forces, then no hope. Why haven't they invaded Saudi over kashoogi? Na Africa dem wan come......

Handiwork of politicians to whip up sentiments.
