Akpabio best, amaechi and uduaghan worst... I have been to all the south south area and base on the fact those three recieve high allocation

Taaah!!!! Where did you go to in Rivers State

alfred5:
Best is Akpabio, Worst is Amechi.

Akpabio that built roads and bridges for Keke Napep abi??

I am a student of R.S.U.S.T, the transformation we've experienced in school in Rotimi's administration is unparalleled.

Best- Rotimi Amaechi(Rivers State) Health, Education, Infrastructure, e.t.c.

Worst-Uduaghan(Delta State)

I live in Port-Harcourt also.

I no understand all this jargon o. But nice post sha.

Due to the kind of company she kept as at then, I thought she was the promiscuous type. Lo and behold she is the most 'one-man' lady I've ever seen. Classic case of 'do not judge the book by its cover'.

RIP

Please can anyone here share good free e-books download links? I seriously am in need of an e-book on HYDRAULICS(Engineering).


Thanks in anticipation.

Constant electricity supply in my house.

Where in Nigeria??

In business always prepare for loss. If you sustain that business trust me, by this time next year you'd be posting 'Millionaire in poultry business'. Just have a little patience. A time to sow and a time to reap.

This is coming against the back-drop of the President's comment that his government has changed the very lives of Nigerians. So, let's hear from us, exactly how has this administration affected you?

I live in Rivers-State currently and I really can't point out any change. Aside the on-going construction of the East-West road, really nothing. Also, the partial removal of subsidy hiked cost of transportation in the city. So, let's hear from you.

Compliments of the Season.

BackDatAssUp:
Why blame the FG for non passage of the PIB where it is the same FG that drafted and sent the bill to the National Assembly?

The National Assembly specifically the house of representatheives under Tambuwal is responsible for the non passage of the bill.

Also, why strike over a trade dispute concerning member staffs of a private oil company?

The APC has the union executives of the NLC, ASUU and PENGASAN in their pocket.

This strike has more political undertones to it.

You are deluded mister!

seribroo56:
how low can you get

How do you mean sir

OP help!!!!!!!!!! I connected a friend's Tecno M7 to my notebook via USB. Before then my notebook was spanking clean. Moments after un plugging, I did a quick scan with SmaDav anti-virus and discovered that my system had contracted some kind of virus(or malware) from that phone. It keeps cloning itself and it presents its self like some kind of file with a gear attached. Am really scared. The name I think is vbs_encrypted... Please help.

NIGERIA IS MY COUNTRY. I just feel that Nigeria is on a brink. A brink of total collapse or global dominance. But current happenings in the country points to the latter. I have a dream that one day Nigeria will be the Egypt of Joseph's days, where people usually came to for most of its needs. We have everything be that nation. However it begins with you and me. Let's make NIGERIA great. #iRep_Green_White_Green.

Any government that will spend so much to launch a satellite when more than 60% of its populace lives below the poverty line is foolish,and that is putting it politely. Yeye dey smell...

No cause for alarm but your CBN has already devalued the naira. Story for Amadioha.

I vote for...

I confuse for who to vote. Vivly or Jenninma naim dey my mind

No thanks. I am gainfully employed.

Why take on such an endeavour? The man is clearly within his rights by running for the gubers. Do the right thing and vote him back to Rumueikpirikom come next polls.

Four-year-old Omonigho Abraham is
currently battling for his life at the Lagos
State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja,
after his scalp was eaten by two dogs.
The dogs chewed the skin and exposed the
victim’s skull during the attack which
happened on Thursday on Adegboyega
Street, Akesan Estate, in the Igando area of
Lagos.
PUNCH Metro had reported last week that
the police arrested the two dogs for
attacking Omonigho.
However, our correspondent learnt from
eyewitnesses that the dogs dragged him
through the compound for more than one
hour while policemen and sympathisers
watched helplessly at the entrance of the
house for fear of being attacked by the
savage dogs.
The immediate elder brother of the victim,
seven-year-old Osemudiamen, told our
correspondent that the dogs had chased
him, Omonigho and their elder brother,
Bobby, while they were taking turns to ride
a bicycle.
He said, “We were riding a bicycle in the
compound when the big dogs ─ Jack and
Gadaffi ─ started barking at us. Later, they
moved towards us.
“My elder brother and I quickly ran upstairs
and locked the door while Omo
(Omonigho), who could not run fast, was
left behind.
“When he got to the door, he knocked that
we should open for him and as we did, one
of the dogs forced his way into the house
with him.
“We all ran out. Bobby jumped down from
upstairs and I also jumped. But Omo could
not jump, so the dog attacked him.
“The other dog also joined in the attack and
there was nothing we could do.”
It was learnt that the screams of the
children who managed to get outside
attracted passersby and residents who
besieged the house.
No fewer than seven policemen from the
Igando Police Station reportedly stood at
the gate, confused.
An eyewitness, who lived on the street, but
pleaded anonymity, said, “The police came,
but said there was nothing they could do.
The dogs were growling as they ate the
child alive and that sent fear into everyone.
Nobody could move inside to challenge the
dogs. Everybody was just shouting in
confusion and wielding sticks.”
The victim’s mother, Mrs. Helen Abraham,
who was away when the incident
happened, said her son had been injured
by the time she arrived at the scene.
She said, “When I got there, I met a crowd.
They asked me not to go inside, but I
refused to listen to them. One of the dogs
emerged from the corridor with blood
stains in its mouth. I ran inside. The other
dog, on sighting me, pounced, but I fought
back. It later ran away. I called on people
who joined me to take him to a hospital.
“This has been a nightmare I want to wake
up from.”
The victim’s father, Mr. Odia Abraham, said
the medical personnel at the Igando
General Hospital asked them to transfer him
to LASUTH because of the severity of the
attack.
“The doctor at Igando said his condition
was critical and we should take him to
LASUTH. When the incident happened, I was
away at work.
“But when I got home, I saw parts of my
son’s scalp on the floor. The dogs dragged
him through the compound for about one
and half hours and nobody moved near
them. His face was also affected, but
thankfully it did not get to his eyes.
“His two brothers, who survived, also got
injured. The seven-year-old who spoke with
you has a fracture, which we are still
treating. The other, who is 13 years, has a
minor injury.
“We marked Omo’s fourth year birthday in
June. He is a very intelligent boy and he
always tells me he wants to be a soldier
because he loves to protect people. I am
hoping this thing will not affect his brain,”
he said.
The police were said to have arrested the
owner of the dogs, one Stanley Wesley.
A resident said the people living in the
house had warned Wesley about his dogs
but he refused to listen.
She said, “We became alarmed when he
brought a third dog recently which was
more ferocious and bigger than the others.
Whenever he took that dog on a walk, even
adults would be scared.
“People told him to find a place to keep his
giant dogs, but he refused to listen. It was
the new dog that first followed those
children into the house.”
When our correspondent visited the Burns
and Plastic Ward of LASUTH, he was told the
victim was asleep.
The matron in charge of the ward told our
correspondent she would not comment
unless the Public Relations Officer of the
hospital gave an approval.
However, the PRO was said to be
unavailable as he was on leave.
A medical officer, who spoke on condition
of anonymity, said the victim’s condition
was “serious and critical.”
The Police spokesperson, Lagos State
Command, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, said the
police were the ones that actually rescued
the victim.
Nwosu said, “I can confirm to you that on
September 25, at about 5.40pm, dogs
belonging to one Stanley Wesley attacked
and harmed a four-year-old boy and the
matter was reported at the Igando Police
Division.

10 Top Things Nigerians Now Accept as
Normal
Here are ten things I have identified as top
abnormalities Nigerians now just surrender to
or even accept as normal.
1. Electricity: Gradually, Nigerians now have
accepted that it is normal not to have or
expect electricity. So when the Power Ministry
under Professor Chinedu Nebo, recently
announced a drop of 2000 megawatts from
the existing 4000 megawatts, no Nigerian
even commented. Also, when the power
authorities speak of strikes, everyone looks
away, uncaring.
That is the new way. In my nick of the wood
in Abuja, we even have a time table for light.
There are off days as every part has its own
“light day”. You plan your schedules in strict
adherence to this time table. The other day,
we had two days of uninterrupted power
supply. My law-abiding neighbours became
worried and collectively went to report the
“anomaly” to NEPA (Nigerians still calls it
that in spite of all the name change).
2. Bad Roads: What you do about bad roads
is not to complain. The skill you must get is
how to navigate the craters and gutters in a
way to save your tyres the ordeal. Since one
big man spent a whopping 300 billion naira
on roads without any visible change,
Nigerians have resigned to fate, accepting
their lot on the road of life (no pun intended).
3. Electoral rigging: That elections are going
to be rigged is not the issue. You knew it was
going to happen as sure as the sun sets in
the East. What you don’t know is the latest
methods. Rigging are now even transparent,
free and fair. You knew the poll was rigged
but exactly how, you haven’t the faintest
idea. At the end, you accept the result as the
people’s wish. May be the new system is to
allow the people do the rigging themselves.
Self-reliant rigging!
4. Corruption: Poor EFCC! They now pick
every soft target they can find; quickly post
their photos on the internet- just to keep the
façade of waging a war against corruption.
And they indeed are waging a war against
petty thieves, leaving out the shot-callers and
the well connected rogues who even run the
anti-graft agencies.
Yes, folks. The monster is waxing strong and
many now only appease it with platitudes.
This is the one that may never go away
because it has become a duly registered
conglomerate in its own right. What you do is
try to see how much of it doesn’t affect you
but it is everywhere you turn. Deal with it.
5. Killer Convoys: You already know about
that. What you don’t know is the madness of
it all and why the big men choose to risk their
lives and that of others in this manner. First,
the convoys are a way of saying “look, we are
different from you”. Then, it is the ultimate
sign that you had arrived.
I know a certain speaker (House of
Assembly) who upon getting sworn in, called
his aides aside and said “Please, ensure the
sirens are the loudest in this state”. He
wasn’t satisfied even with his aides’
reassurances. One day, he actually
“supervised” the compliance by lowering his
window to listen to the sweet sound of power.
Only in Nigeria!
6. Lack of cash: Welcome to the era of
cashlessness. I laughed when I first heard of
the CBN inspired cashless policy. If you
asked me, Nigerians did not even notice the
fact that the policy officially took off on July
1, 2014. Why? Nigerians have been living
without cash since the start of the current
dispensation. The skills we have learnt as a
people is how to have enough cash to keep
you alive till the next money enters your
hand.
How more cashless can an already listless,
struggling people get? By the way, a certain
supermarket I went the other day pretending
to be operating the cashless stuff had
difficulty with the machine. The batteries ran
down and there was no light to power the
damn device. The hapless customer just
gave cash – good old cash – and left.
7. Violence: The other day, Miss Malala came
to town. A foreign news medium said she was
risking her life by coming to Nigeria as if it
was here she was first shot at. But that is
new reality! Our country is now in the same
category as Somalia, Syria and the other
demonised nations of the world.
With thousands getting killed each week,
Nigerians are now insensitive. An editor told
me the other day that he was tired of all the
stories of killings and abduction going on in
Borno State. And he wasn’t being callous. He
was merely accepting the new norm – the
fact that a bomb blast now sounds like the
knockouts we like throwing around at xmas
when we were innocent.
8. Defection: Politicians now move around the
political parties like some girls looking for
where to shop for the latest Brazillian hair.
There was a time when to defect from a party
was the ultimate decision by a politician. It
would make headlines. But now, you just
yawn when you hear of it.
9. Strikes: Strikes have become a comedy
out here. In some climes, strikes are the
biggest of crisis. But now, unions just get
together to have fun – threatening and then
backtracking! Industrial actions don’t have
any value anymore. They are actions without
a corresponding action from the authority
that has learnt that after a while, the strikers
would get tired and seek any kind of
settlement.
Let’s strike out the strikes, please!
10. Skewed court judgments: No one even
expect justice from the courts anymore. You
only went there because you were either
dragged there against your wish or that you
went because you didn’t know where else to
turn to. At the end, you are disappointed by
the quality of justice dispensed, even if it was
in your favour.

Who cares wether it's APC or PDP that wins?? All we want is good governance. something you loosers can't and will never offer. Bunch of devils. :-/

Lots of words yet no solution...

Don't u just love 'oyinbo' love? Jesus sure does things.

I don't know if this topic has been treated on here hitherto,but I've been pondering over this for a while now. If adam and eve were to live forever why then was the 'tree of life' there? Thanks in anticipation.

GoodMorning all.

All through last night I was all over the internet reading christian texts and articles on select random topics. Then I logged onto www.christiancourier.com(one of my best) to get their views on a topic. Usually there are links to other topical issues right underneath every discussed passage. So after reading I scrolled down to get a glimpse of those topics,when I stumbled on a topic that read: ''eternal punishment[in hell]-Justified or not?''.. I clicked &read and,though I have been reading 'hell' articles before now,I was very impressed with this text,somuch so that a sudden [righteous]dread[for hell],for the first time in a long while, came over me. The writer's delivery and explanations got me, to the point where I began to think that probably it is of necessity that Christians should entertain a measure dread for hell to deter them[us] from going astray in life. The writer was able to elucidate in plain English what hell is and the intensity of punishment that awaits people who go there. It was amazing.

Right now am starting to doubt those who think the dread of hell shouldn't motivate one to seek God, I think it should. The consequences of dying in Sin is too damning,muchmore than we can ever phanthom. Or am I wrong? Whats your take christians?
