shame on ASUU, why always them ...Are polytechnic lecturers not humans too. why are they not always on strike like ASUU

Lecturers know no matter what they do government would be the ones to be insulted.

slawomir:
Damnnn niggar
Make them nor worry

We go meet for job searching market

Which market?

You'll be 29 by the time you graduate.

Obidients.


Shey una dey curse Akpata just last week?

anonimi:
All the other areas you are hailing Thiefnuibu for are not private land?
Why are you calling someone exactly what you yourself are

You responded because your conscience was pricking you.

Idiots everywhere.

Is that not someone's private land?

Danniedpastor:
You know nothing,guy.

Ebo, go siddon one place.

Obedient gang don reach Barcelona.

Danniedpastor:
Is that your problem now?

Says a lot about the person behind the moniker.

Danniedpastor:
Baby lagosian too want to talk

For prayer and cancelling indeed.

Achilles881:
Obi has never held any elective position under PDP, you are completely clouded in your reasoning, bottom line, no one can save you, only God with your help can save you. as for your accusations, orji uzo kalu bola Ahmed tinubu and rochas okorocha are members of the ruling APC, from the south, efcc came for tinubu under PDP government, kalu and okorocha were candidates of currupt investigation under present APC, but you in your wisdom believe that efcc under APC government loves Obi or doesn't know that obi exist, sensational journalism is sweet if you are told what YOU LOVE to believe, but when you decieved yourself with lies, you can feel happy momentarily, but peace of mind only comes when you start questioning WHY? a ruling party can't go for Obi with the allegations you provided above, then will you realize the truth.

Neither did Anenih.

When I read the rubbish you guys spew, it is nauseating.

Oshin56:
he didn't spend up to 4yrs. he was the one that introduce Lagos light rail and secondly google is your friend. I'm not against your candidate but don't let us be myopic in our thinking.

Which Lagos light rail?


Where was the line installed?

All you little kids that just regurgitate whatever you are fed.

Ikennaford:
Unprofessional

Like NBA members last week.

Obedient Pilots.

Much like obidient NBA members fighting over souvenirs.

hush15:
No I mean like the one of promoting a failure to fuel presidential ambition.

Did I expect you to give any logical argument?

Oshin56:
someone that didn't spend up to 4years in office that you can mention his achievement compare to someone that spend 8years in office. Sir use your tongue to count your teeth.

See how you are avoiding issues.

Ok tell us what Jakande did in 4 years.

Watch how he would avoid it.

hush15:
Conflict of Interest... the very reason he can boldly claim, emilokan. Terrible sense of entitlement

Conflict of interest- you mean like Obi/Next/SABMiller?

Or that one isn't a clear case?

Oshin56:
thanks you sir, Lateef Jakande of his blessed memory was the best governor of Lagos state. Most of the plan been implemented now at Lagos was Jakande plan.

Jakande did well but he did not open the Lekki-Ajah and Epe axis for business, Tinubu did.

Billionaires from as far as Abakaliki have been made from this development alone.

Jakande's classrooms were derided as being poultries back in the day.

There were no BRT lanes in his time.

There was nothing like the EPZ zone is his time.

Certainly no Eko Atlantic or efficient policing system.

Lagos, despite being overwhelmed with the influx of new residents everyday, surpasses all other states in terms of security.

Ingratitude leads to misery.

hush15:
Ned Nwoko is no different and I agree but this is where the tides changes, he is no a revenue collector but a repo man. His service are repo services where taxs are overpaid or debts overserviced or even repatriated funds, not collecting day to day taxes from citizens

Consultancies abound everywhere in the world.

Tinubu did not invent the act of private establishments helping government to increase revenue, he adopted its use in Nigeria and should be applauded for it.

Not vilified.

I don't understand this fixation on who rather than on what.

Is it effective?

Has government benefitted?

Do people lose their homes or well-being as a result?

What exactly is the complaint?

IgweBUIKE1:
I liked your post... But pls talking about igr... Compare the number of industries and population of both Anambra and Lagos State...?

Compare that of Nigeria.

NOHOLDSBAR:
Answer what question? I don't need to answer any infantile unecessary questions for Nigerians.
Allow Nigerians to answer why they are all running to Lagos from the SE NE NW and rest of Nigeria. Allow Obi himself to answer why he left. Awka and relocated to Lagos right after leaving office. I don't need to answer for all Nigerians moving to Lagos on daily basis, let them do that.

My theory is very simple and doesn't deserve any argument or long speech. If you prefer the feel and look of Anambra which Obi governed for8 years then go and vote for him. If you prefer the feel and look pf Lagos then vote for Tinubu because the also Governed Lagos for 8 years and is the architect of a lot of the projects on ground now.
You said how many people can afford EKo Atlantic? Was it designed for the average income civil servant to live there? NO
There are always many developments all over the world where the average person cannot afford to buy.
I have travelled all over the world and I can tell you that any city or community, you will always find exclusive domain even within any city or community. How many people living in Atlanta can afford to buy a house in Alpharetta or even the new Atlantic Station?
In fact the new Atlantic Station in Atlanta is surrounded by bunch of poor people living in projects not to talk of super poor who are homeless all over the City of Atlanta and so many of them within steps of Atlantic Station. In fact the Atlantic Station in Atlanta was built on lands where the very poor used to live. they removed them and build this new community.

It's not if the poor can live there that matters, what matters is the economic impact of any project on the rich and the poor. There's no way you are going to build such projects that you will not employ even the poor to work their during and after construction.
Thet US govt is spending 500 Million dollars to build the world's largest consulate in Eko Allantic. That kind of investment will trickle down even to the poorest in form of economic spending. People will supply building materials, food vendors will sell food around the area, transporters will transport building materials and people to and form the site, daily labor will be gainfully employed until the project is done, engineers will be employed and paid. They will in turn used money earned to buy food, send their kids to school and so on and so fort.
That's how real economy works not just who can afford to live there.

Your view is very myopic and very narrow, broaden your world view horizon and see the bigger picture.

Most of these bitter folks are unexposed and unlettered.

They always assume things about foreign lands without having lived it themselves.

They want all the accoutrements of the advanced world without wanting to pay the price.

It's a sad development that clannishness rules in Nigeria.

Any other part of the world Obi would not even dream of being a senator.

snoopz:
In Lagos, if tinubu is really the owner, then is it right for him to use his own company as the sole tax agency and is it the same amount alphabeta is collecting as its own share the same other states are paying?
I trust Kwara Dem no get that kin luxury to dey pay humongous money at the end of the month to alpha

You don't pay a fee, you pay a commission based on milestones.

There's a difference.

hush15:
Why would you compare NITEL to LIRS or FIRS even if we are to scale it up rightly? Is NITEL a tax collector?

There is no difference in the philosophy.

Private enterprise always does better than public especially in Africa.

In UK, everyone is on NHS yet many still have private health insurance because you can be sure to receive better, urgent and efficient treatment.

Just say you are bitter.

I don't see you complaining about Ned Nwoko doing similar.

989900:

See the attached picture in my initial post.

Google:
Alphabets & Apara
Alpha-Beta court papers Igbosere
Alpha-Beta & Tinubu

Make of the information whatever you wish.

What was the court's verdict?

hush15:
That's a lie. States can generate its revenue thru its inter al revenue agencies if well structured out and payments are made directly to government coffers. What's the function of LIRS if not revenue generation?

Consultations maybe but generation is a wrong. In Lagos State, the reverse is the case. LIRS is doing consultation while the company is doing generation and when the founders and owners of the organization are those in the ruling party and former political holders of public trust. Extorting people wrongly and still using people hard earned money for their own personal aggrandizement and still be lying to me that they did this and that when it's tax payers monies that does all they are claiming accolades for. Not their personal monies.

Tinubu and his forty thieves should swear its all their personal monies they spending and used in acquiring all that he is claiming today, I made men, I built this, I did that, I donated this.... nonsense

Like what Obi has been saying, " when you have a leader whose families and cronies are not benefitting from government, you have reduced corruption by more than 50%". LASG is full of families and cronies and such, Lagos cannot fully realize it's true potentials.

NITEL can also provide telecoms.

Question is do they really?

DOTian:
Imo people did not reject him! Mbaise and their clannish lifestyles rejected him! There are many members of the clergy from other parts of the country that have served in Imo State in the past, including foreigners from other countries. Mbaise clan has a siege mentality, just like the Ngwa n Abia state

Snake and Mbaise man?

Is that why lala likes snakes?

2special:
But Catholic do claim they're perfect, that they're not like Pentecostal.

Yimu.

Nigerians don't change.

StrongandMighty:
I wonder what's the intentions of the mod that moved this topic to the front page with such destructive headline...

Make we no get information again?

You want to gag the public?

HRMK:
even in states controlled by oppositions?dont you then blv its not just abt tinubu or lagos?if the arrangement didnt pay these other states,they wont engage the company!it is as simple as that!!

I have absolutely no problem with a private establishment helping government improve its revenue intake.

Aristobrat:
The state re mostly western state. Tinubu and his boys have contact there opposition state ke delta rivers re they there?

Imo, Abia, Akwa Ibom are clients.

Hope it's not dyslexia?

perez100:
Time will come when you will answer for your devilish propaganda. Nothing is permanent in life except "TRUTH". You will one day tell the world who are the people giving you all the pictures of the killings in South East. How unknown gunmen you are against are giving you all the pictures of their atrocities and the motives for it. You have been the first person getting the picture of all these atrocities.

You create fake accounts and posts your things and your killer gang members will reply disguising as South Easterners

Christine Amanpour, CNN and Sky news must be the source of all disasters on earth in that case.

Just like must be the one creating bad news around the country.

Owopariola001:
If you know that the government is not broke, the onus is on you to prove otherwise. The government has said it's broke."



Government itself says it's broke, not me.



Because we are spending more than what we earn. Or we earning lesser than what we spend.



They employ Alpha Beta consulting as outsourced business partners to help them generate more revenue like that of Lagos State.



By drawing private investors to the country, there is an increase in upfront financing that the government or other funder only repays plus profits through social service programs, start-ups, seed financing, etc, into public service financing.

If you still don't understand this, it is either this discourse is above your knowledge or you're only trying to prove too smart by half.

He'll come back to you with another set of roundabout questions.

I've forgotten his other moniker on Nairaland but that's his modus operandi.

The idea is to get you to tire responding.

He'll always win because he'll continue asking stupid questions you won't have time for.
