Africa women's cup of nations should have been the right name for the tournament.

Haba! The name of the cup (tournament) is "Africa cup of nations (Afcon)" so this is women's own tournament of the Afcon, that is why it is called Women's "Afcon"

Still have a long way to go though

We need 34000 mw to give those currently on the grid 24 hours of electricity a day

We need 89000 MW to give everyone in Nigeria right now 24 hours of electricity a day

We need 10-14 trillion naira of investments in electricity to achieve the above, and the investments is an annual thing , for 10 years

We need to make sure that no one steals power at all

We need to remove subsidies on power. I hate to say this , but we need to pay 250 naira or more per unit of electricity, which will attract the needed investment to make the sector grow. People don't like doing things for a loss.

We got to pay for 24 hour a day power.


I knows we poor, but power is expensive. And wanting government to give you power without removing subsidies is asking for government to take loans of 15 trillion naira annually for power. Which we will still pay back anyway in the form of high power bills.

Nothing comes cheap

Can someone remind me the budget for Lagos Calabar coastal road again. $11B (N15T)? Can someone define misplaced priority for me?

So the money that will be spent to fix the power problem cannot be recovered through properly enforced electricity billings? Infact the money Nigerians already pay annually for electricity bills, is it not close to that amount you stated?

Very funny country. Sometimes i wonder why electricity is not stable in Nigeria. Is it an impossible rocket science that cannot be achieved, or it is a deliberate act. If other countries especially African countries can do it, why can't Nigeria?

These trailers and their accidents just too terrible, they usually carry innocent people along most times. Our roads need to be fixed and the drivers need proper skill and mental evaluation regularly before being allowed to drive.

Can you guys see what these politicians are doing with Nigeria and the funds in Nigeria. i don't believe these people are in position to serve at all, but to loot and enrich themselves.

That speed Darlington na very anyhow person. Although this case go hard because there is no evidence, and no complainant. Unless maybe they have one.

This guys for just do this thing 3 lanes on each side. Lagos has high traffic and wider roads may help to a little extent

This is so sad. May their souls rest in peace.

Try as much as possible to avoid driving into flash floods with strong currents when it rains.

helinues:
Who abducted the boy?

Any arrest made?

I wonder why they hid that information

Is it that the number of flights daily in US is too much leading to too much confusion in the air traffic control, plus too much wear and tear on the aircrafts, and lack of proper maintenance.

Why so much crashes of aircrafts in the US in recent years?

Good if they can actually use the money without embezzling and looting it to stupor.

Them no fit pay the 77k

Na wa o. But why is the government especially the presidency not doing or even saying anything about this invasion of communities and carrying out mass killing of people in their houses?

Why are these set of herdsmen, or whoever they really are untouchable?

Everything in Rivers state right now is fake. Fake governor, fake reps, na wa for democracy under this current presidency.

What about killing from bandits/herdsmen. These guys wan finish people in Benue and Plateau state, but the government does not even say anything.

Does it happen like this in other countries?

Na wa, shey na country be this?

They even abducted him on his way from defence headquarters where he went to lodge complain of threat to life. Them no even let am reach house.

I just want to ask a question, after suspending the governor and imposing the state of emergency. Is the president doing anything or did he put in structure for conflict resolution for the parties at loggerheads to resolve their issues.

Abi him just suspend them come go sleep. So after the six months what happens?

Good project if they can actually complete it and it really passes through the coast all through.

But i am wondering why don't government say or do anything about electricity. Is it impossible for Nigeria to have stable electricity even in this modern age? Or is there something hidden about this electricity thing we don't know.

The money used in constructing this road can go a long way in solving the electricity issue in the country but the government doesn't look towards such area at all. Why?

Before opening the thread I said Michael Jackson.

Other worthy mentions are pele, maradona, Muhammad ali, mike tyson

janeedema:
He won’t just be a governor o. He will be a monarch. He will see the state as his entitlement. So his hold on the state is forever.

Dont mind the man and those supporting him. It is just too obvious that he is pursuing the state creation stuff due to his personal interest.

Wouldn't this man have been better than what we have currently? Asking.

tishbite41:
As a current Senator, he's the spokesman of his senatorial district

You are right. But it is believed that this Anioma issue is born out of personal interest to him. Even some groups has come out to say one time that they are not fighting for any new state.

gidgiddy:
Isn't he the Senator representing Delta North? He should know better than you what his constituents want

Some groups have come out to say they didn't send him to agitate for any new state. He is doing it for his own personal interest. No body send am that one. Although anyhow it happens, no wahala.

Is Ogwashi-Ukwu not the headquarters of Aniocha South LGA? Why report it as Oshimili North. Or is there another Ogwashi-Ukwu in Oshimili North?

Why is this Ned wanting to force everyone in Delta North into a new state. Is it by force? Who send am? Who made him the spokesman of all Delta North (Anioma people). Who told him Anioma people want to leave Delta state and form a new state. The man is just fighting for a state where he will be a governor with ease.

Arsenal can't meet PSG at semis. Whoever wins between Arsenal and Madrid will need whoever wins between inter and Bayern

Not true.

The winner in Barca vs Dortmund will meet the winner in Bayern vs Inter.

The winner in Arsenal vs Madrid will meet the winner in PSG vs Aston villa

doctore212:
Which day will government remove subsidy for Lagos Oloshos.

I am tired of paying 10k for all night

Do you even know the meaning of subsidy?
If subsidy is removed from something, it will become costlier.

Example when government removed subsidy from fuel, you saw the price went up till date.

The way you guys report news self is something else. Abuja bound GUO bus, coming from where? No info on that.

Nigeria as a country is almost gone completely. I wonder where these kidnappers and bandits hide that the police or military can't find or fish them out. Shey the intelligence unit for these forces no dey work? God abeg, this is too much.

Na wa, una sure say this man get sense at all? Educate who? And integrate who back into the society. Coming from someone in leadership position that they killed his wife in his presence.

Nigerian leaders are really problem of this country. It is only in this country they romance terrorists and kidnappers, in other countries i know, they bomb them to ashes. Ask Israel or US.

The next election in Kogi central senatorial district will be so tough between Natasha and Yahaya Bello. Who will win this thing like this?

Yahaya Bello dont want to rest until he becomes the senator of the district. Nigerian politicians can never rest.

Na wa for this country ooo, President and Vice President don waka loss. Them come leave the country for Akpabio hand abi wetin.

Before them go come back, Akpabio go use the presidential power vested on him crush Natasha to pieces.

Lagos roads are too tight for its population.

Too many people own cars in the city and drives it daily. Had it been there are functional rail system connecting key locations, most people would leave cars at home and use train.

lexy2014:
fact is that there was no going to be reprisal attack in Uromi.

it could have only taken place in the north obviously with the backing of their politicians and permission of tinubu.

Esan people were shouting that it is their turn to produce governor.

they have produced the governor.

let them enjoy him

Na wa. The man is too scared as a leader. Herdsmen have been killing people and r^ping people daily all over middlebelt, South East, South west, and south south. Nobody has paid any compensation to those people. Even the presidency turned deaf ears.

I wish Edo people well in this 8 years.
