Sincere 9gerian: I think we should try to be sincere, even if just for few seconds in a day.

The report states:
"a consultant who carried out a post-
assessment of the repair works of the bridge
discovered that the repair work on its
foundation was not properly done"

The work done on the 3rd mainland bridge last year by the FG was on the EIGHT expansion joints, not 'foundation'.
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/10/third-mainland-bridge-re-opens/

Again, the FG spent precisely N1.05 billion to repair those 8 expansion joints, not N1.5 billion. This information is directly from the ministry of works, not sources:
"Repairs on the Third Mainland Bridge and additional works on the bridge's expansion joints would cost the sum
of N1.05billion, Bashir Yuguda, the Minister of State for Works said Friday, in Lagos"
http://premiumtimesng.com/metro/5948-third_mainland_bridge_repairs_to_gulp_n1billion.html

Some media organisations erroneously reported N1.5billion.

Anyway, I expect the ministry of works will adequately respond to the concerns of the senators.

alaoeri: Bamanga failed to realised that messi have never score against chelsea.

LastApostle: For balance and equitable distribution of political power an IBO man should be made the presidential candidate from this alliance. If all this talk and negotiations is to re-package that old power thirty almajiri of Buhari then I have nothing to say than to call Tinubu, okorocha, Tom ikimi and co political slaves.
Any positive change towards economic and political integration should first of all patronise and exploit the untapped potentials of the south Eastern people.

jydeoshodi: Action Congress can not even win the South West Again.The acid test during Ondo election is a pointer.Fashola can also test his popularity in Lagos.The only vote he will get will come from Lekki and Banana Island.Buhari will never take the back seat.The south will never trust the North with Power.Niger Delta owns the oil.Action Congress hatchet Man,Justice Salami has been kept in the cooler.Action Congress is dead.
Good talk!!! ACN will loose majority of its state,,,Nobody will vote 4 a Boko Haram Party CPC and APGA is a PDP extention. So there is no course 4 alarm PDA is still in Charge.

Adura_ngba: Including all your thieving governors in the so called opposition, and including all those in the opposition who had been part of the govrnment in any capacity, Tinubu inclusive.

phreakabit: [size=13pt]Well, this is nothing of particular interest to any Igbo man, as to warrant excitement. We vote for Igbo interest not POLITICAL PARTIES.

jason123: Very well said! Apart from the elitist and close associates of ACN. Everyone else HATES ACN'S guts in Lagos state. What's worse is that the bloody king pin of ACN, ojuyobo, is not even an indigene of Lagos but of Osun.

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson]I doubt if APGA is part of the merger unless its not an Igbo party again. Imagine if the candidate the merger will produce happens to be Buhari, you mean we will vote for him. Nonsence.[/color]

justaqad: Asalam Alaykum.
Islam is a religion not just to he Arabs but to the whole world,Simply by saying 'there is no god apart from God.
شَهِدَ اللّهُ أَنَّهُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ وَالْمَلاَئِكَةُ وَأُوْلُواْ الْعِلْمِ قَآئِمَاً بِالْقِسْطِ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ
God bears witness that there is no other god besides Him, and so do the angels and those who possess knowledge."(Verse 3:18)
there is a trend among Muslims which i find not just disturbing but wrong.muslims are submitters to the will of Allah not to the will of Arabs.
we are loosing our identity to the Arabs.the essence of naming is for Identity.when i hear the name Chidi,i know he is Igbo by tribe.but it would be difficult to tell whether Gafar that resides in Oshodi is yoruba,igbo,hausa or Arab.
i fear we are loosing our cultural heritage to the Arabs.i beg to differ there is no such thing as Islamic name.i am not saying Arabic names are bad,but we ought not loose our identity.
i grew up with an Arabic name as my first name,whenever i say my first name,people start asking are you Hausa?it will take me me some seconds to introduce my self.i have since adopted my tribal name as my first,arabic second.
i am proud of my race,i am proud to be called Yoruba.i am not loosing it,not for anything.
Masalam

Billyonaire: I cant say exactly how many white papers, but it is a standard government process to fact-check any committee's report by a White Paper Committee for any sentiment-based, errors, and statistical errors before the white paper is issued. It is a standard process worldwide, it is not just about our Nigeria. I am an international person well vested in international politics. You can call any political group even in the USA and ask about it. I guess you will ashamed to know that you have misjudged an intellectual. And yes, my Government is my PayMaster and am proud to say I am PDP and I am Nigerian and I love my country. If the Government decides to reward me with cash and positions, I will be there looking down on you as always. And again, I am a very conscious person, and I came to the world prepared to fight off ignorance and ignorants.

Billyonaire: Yes, in my village am a well-known name with awards, in Lagos, I command the crowd of savvy businessmen and technocrats, when I go to NY, I rob mind with the best, in China, I am known by a chinese name and in Nairaland, I am Billyonaire and am winning every war. so what are you ? The answer is Persona-non-grata.

Billyonaire: Hahahahah Red Eyed Old man, Gbawe the m/o/ro/n, if there was serious money to be made in Yahoo Yahoo, I would have been there. But I really doubt your mental agility in political terrain cos you dont even know any thing about Governments Chains of command. You Gbawe are a very big fool judged by your antecedent on Nairaland. I am an award winning personality with many of your types on my Payroll.

Billyonaire: Yes, Ribadu's Committee Report has to be fact-checked by a white paper committee before the final white paper that Government can work with. That is the normal process of any Government in the world. I feel you and Gbawe are educated but ignorant on Governance, I really doubt if any of you attended any political post in your lives. I feel ashamed of you both.

Omexonomy: If the subsidy report is implemented petrol will sell for 150 per litter. The report is advocating for the total removal of subsidy Having said that please GBAWE TAKE DAT DEMDEMMORON and the rest of the ACN Foot soldier on this st.upi.d and frudulent forum called nairaland kindly stop drinking raw enthanol and stop smoking ganger it wont do you any good in this life.

Adura_ngba: Again? We have been through all these propaganda before on a thread by the same OP on the same topic.
