People don't know d difference bw Buhari n APC....but that isn't q justification for the threat.


David Lee on Twitter cos I think d platform seyi used most was twitter

Didn't find him on Facebook..can you verify d platform bro

OasisX:
I swear. Some of us no longer get freedom to supporting candidate(s) of our choice without being threatened.

Blame Buhari-led administration cos d rate of vex wey dey people mind too much.


But I no see dat David Lee o

iamoyindamola:
Abi na, was it not here an individual mocked those attacked during election

Am trying to search d David Lee on twitter but couldn't find that dp

OasisX:
If you ain't supporting their mini god, you are a threat and must be eliminated. They love the Country more than rest of us.

Oh boy....politics don turn another things for naija..

Omo where person wan start for this Nigeria sef?

Number 187 out of 191 Health systems as ranked by WHO.

As part of the 63rd AGM of the Nigerian Medical Association, I was invited to be part of a team conducting an outreach in a neighbouring LGA two hours from Jalingo.

Omo, these guys turned the hospital to a marketplace. We even had to hustle for space to park the vehicles, such was the crowd waiting for us.

We started consultation and I spent four straight hours on my feet, and when the instruction came to stop around 4pm, there were more patients waiting for us than we had seen. And my section alone had seen over 200. I don't know the amount Medicine, Surgery, O&G, Pediatrica etc had seen.

Most of these people have nowhere else to turn to for healthcare, and they came in droves because it was free.

We exhausted every single drug we came with, tablet and eyedrop, and it was not even close to being sufficient.

And where and how do I even begin to describe the problem with almajiri children and the devastating effects of extreme poverty on children?
Three children with Xerophthalmia and Nyctalopia - caused by a deficiency of vitamin A - how do you begin to ask them to alter their diet when them no dey see food chop?


Omo we are sitting on a time bomb o

Do you know that your observation and willingness to help is considered as an insult as long as you are an outsider?


I think monerozi5590 is in a better position to lecture you on this issue cos you can't possibly tell us here that there are no one suffering same fate in ur community or state......


Stop painting the North Black.....

Cromagnon:
what subsidy?
You think they are not looting it?
Either way e no go reach us but we lose more with it with scarcity suffering

Subsidy has kept food stuffs and other commodities to d reach of an average Nigerian.


It is what d masses enjoy irrespective of the amount being looted from it.....

Our politicians have proven to be insincere and untrustworthy in all departments.....Trusting them with the subsidy fund is suicide......

Cromagnon:
do you have a choice?

So my opinion is keep d subsidy in, till we are ready.......

OasisX:


Someone needs to pinch and remind Don J that today is May 1 not April 1.

🤣🤣

This is naija

OasisX:
Segedinho

I think I responded to this cos in all honesty,it is very unnecessary ..

According to Gbola's site..there was an upgrade in valuation as a result of "war"..


Let assume the money was right (despite doubts)..how come d drivers stopped and demanded for his unpaid agreement.

I believed d driver story cos it was confirmed by Abike n videos uploaded.

OasisX:


Ẹ̀gbọ́n..... corn-less izzou did analyse everything already. Kindly check it with open mind, possibly you may agree with him.

Tag me to d post bro.


Was a bit busy on.......

Mind you.. this convo us devoid of party affiliation...

OasisX:


Funnily just 51 south africans were evacuated and some are Diplomats, yet the Amount wasn't disclosed.

Mind you, they arrived in their country today.

Do you think...this constructive argument would have taken place if the amount was too insignificant to be mentioned

Amoto94:
Look at the attached picture in the quoted post

I might be too dull to understand what you are trying to put across bros....

Personally, I am in doubt of d 1.2m paid with no smooth ride whatsoever...something isn't right...IMO


I would love you simplify it......THANKS.

OasisX:


.....really? South Africa hired just 2 Buses, also some part of evacuees were moved by Saudi Ship to Egypt.

You really wanna compare moving 5500 passengers with moving less down 100?!

If S/A paid an extremely low price in comparison wrh 9JA wen we extrapolate..will you accept we are doom


See,I am not even contesting the amount paid anymore cos according to Gbola...all is fair in war...


I am only trying to cross d Ts on d unnecessary danger my people were exposed to despite d huge amount paid....


I can, to some extent argue d drivers became furious after hearing d 1.2m our monsters announced as against what was paid in reality.

Amoto94:
Gloriousgbola, prospa, Oasisx, izzou, segedinho. It has been confirmed by a member of the delegation sent to evacuate the students that the drivers reneged on the initial agreement of 40-60 installmental payment earlier agreed between FG and the transporters. This what was caused the issue experienced by the students to be evacuated


https://m.facebook.com/812528503/posts/pfbid026MBwkyg2zbmsUqvbEtV5HionsNse2fRLunEP15xkNhzNo4RRTKew9L8gPqGaBiTJl/?comment_id=2512003602271679

The Facebook update said absolute nothing from what I clicked...


Abi "4 cousins"high me?

OasisX:


Don't let me go far, South Africa had difficult challenge evacuating just 77 people. Note; they worked with a NGO yet still face the challenge.

I loved to be enlightened and accepting an L is actually one...

So can we juxtaposed the amount earmarked as well as d difficulties encountered


Note:My DISTRUST is hinged on the amount paid yet no smooth transportation

izzou:
[color=royalblue]So, you believe that a driver carried passengers from Khartoum without being paid anything?

Charter for that matter?[/color]

Yeah..I think d incident is much more believable due to d fact that they were stranded in a lonely desert confirmed by Abike n videos


I don't think a 120m dolls rightly paid would give credence to such and unfriendly incidence

OasisX:


....and you'll rather believe a victim in the middle of desert escaping warzone instead of an organisation responsible for their evacuation?

Was he privy to any information before making the allegation? Was he even aware how plans are made for their evacuation or how the deal was negotiated and sealed?

Believing d naija politicians is an herculean task courtesy history.

Besides,there was evidences on d Internet to prove something abnormally occurred.

Is there any other country that has encountered something close to naija saga?...let's discuss

GloriousGbola:
do you believe the 'victim' had $40k on hand to pay the driver?
do you believe the drivers are the owners of the buses?

it is a shakedown. the drivers simply added their own. no dulling as we like to call it.

Nag....d victim didn't say he paid an estimated amount but has something to deposit to ensure d next phase of transportation..


Failure and lies on d part of d gov

OasisX:


Trust issue again. You believe what the driver said coz you don't trust your own Government.

Do you ever think of what the driver said as blackmailing? NEMA said they sorted it out but you'll rather believe what a driver of another national said.

Abike on twitter confirmed there was truly an issue and they have resolved it.


He was tackled by a victim,that they were forced to pay that no intervention whatsoever from her end


So who will I trust bw d gov n d driver

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Issues arise

Yesterday you saw that one batch has arrived Egypt. Why are you not talking about that?

I am not saying the FG is competent, but this is a region in crises; there are bound to be disappointments, setbacks and even unbelievable inflations

Take it easy with the agenda.[/color]

Like I said earlier...na u dey cook d agenda....and itbis easy to spot.


Why will I talk about what I am satisfied with....give kudos to whod Government or Abike

The told us 1.2m was spent...we believe it might be inflated courtesy of history.

They compounded the d already killed TRUST issue by not paying the driver wch led to another episode of shalaye..

Had there been no cry out,would you have realised the unnecessary danger they were exposed to.??....


Abeg....relax with your agenda...

OasisX:
..... I guess you missed some pages cos point you're trying to make has been discussed. Do you expect Government to pay them off 100%?!

I guess the problem is TRUST. Government do no trust them and they don't trust Government either.

Good News is; they are now at the border and Air force C-130 have been sent to airlift them back home.

In as much as i accept the very huge amount paid(no trust though) but why will d driver complain of no pay and put forward a decision.

GloriousGbola:
a month ago i was running a small project. we chartered a taxi to deliver some construction materials to several sites across lagos. we started moving late, and they were still on the road at 10pm. next thing driver started saying he was not going again. he started demanding more money. we had already negotiated, we already knew the route , the man as a driver knew we would be moving late at night - and that was his ultimate plan - to shake us down at the right moment.

you are talking as if this is not something we as nigerians are all used to - artisans or transporters waiting for a point of no return after which they show colour and jack up the price - especially when they have seen that you are desperate.

even after they had paid teh driver, nothing stopped the driver from abandoning them on the road, or handing them to rebels

nigerians get robbed and raped and murdered on the road to libya, also after they have paid in full for the journey

let me spell it out

when you are trying to escape a warzone and you have to pay for your transport - all bets are off.
if the drivers had decided to stop every 1 hour and demand more money, there is nothing anyone could have done.

as it is there are reports that they are not allowing them to enter into egypt. the whole taking of the passports was simply another planned blackmail.

See bro....you said in an unsatisfactory environment,things could go awry wch is right.

But what we have here,is the driver complaining of lack of pay hence the decision made...


The money is large and the history of trust must play a role un analysing ish of this instance.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Make una dey take am easy with all these agenda

Sudan to Egypt = 2000km
$1,200,000 ÷ 40 = $30,000/ bus
One bus carries 50 passengers
5,500÷40 = 138 passengers per bus
So one bus needs to go three times to earn $30,000

‐----------‐--

Lagos to Accra = 500km
One seat is 50,000*50 = 2,500,000
To cover that distance = 2,500,000*4 = 10,000,000
Multiply it by 3 again (to carry 138 passengers) and you'll see the margin is not too much.
Divide your total buy 750/$ and you'll be hoovering around that same markup

I know this is different, but you should have an idea of how you are exaggerating this matter
[/color]

Belike na u dey grind out agenda like this cos your calculations is 100% unnecessary.

They gov said the paid 1.2m us dolls (quite huge) and the drivers stopped them in d midst of nowhere cos they haven't got paid.

IMO,d money is huge and inflated but Gbola's view about no money is too large in a ravaged country is understandable to some extent if they had a smooth ride......

imho, if i could i would have made sure they dropped that stupid boy back in khartoum to find his way by himself. must be one of those entitled over pampered northern princes

I couldn't view the 1st site but the others.

From your response,you are blaming the wrong person cos he didn't sleep with the lies Abike threw to the world.

The 2nd site told you an inflated figure for personal use who hasn't negotiated yet....I think if they had reach an agreement......it would have been a smooth ride.


Naija paid 1.2m us dolls as against the normal price but the driver had to throw his passengers into the cold cos he has not been paid...I think you can connect the dots cos history has shown us what to expect from our politicians

izzou:
[color=royalblue]You are the one that said it was too much

Now, you're saying it is not enough

Pick a side, my elder brother[/color]

I tought you would spot the sarcasm at once

GloriousGbola:
no cost is too high when you are commited to evacuating your people from a live war zone.

I understand your level of satisfaction even if it was 1b us dolls but does the outcome really displayed sincerity?

Outcome like

izzou:
[color=royalblue]With the added corruption VAT of 15 to 20%, it is fair enough[/color]

Even at that...the 1.2m doesn't seems enough cos fare went up i guess
