There’s open defecation along the uncompleted blue line railway corridor from Mile 2 down to Alakija under bridge.

When will these toilets be installed along that corridor.

@naptu you can direct this to the govt. seems you are close to them.

People defecate daily along that rail path.

This looks like Tejuoso market.

Watch as miscreants will go to start attacking them soon.

How you expect a man that controls Lagos and its political structure down to who becomes an ordinary councilor to dissolve power at the federal level is baffling.

What the hell is “Yoruba woman of the week”

naptu2:
Wrong.

There are many places in the US that have the same name. I wrotr about Lancaster California. There was nowhere that I said that Tianjin uses solar ad its main source of electricity.

(I hope you are being serious and not trying to deflect because you discovered that you are wrong).

That's where Tianjin comes in.

3) Tianjin is another place that uses solar power to provide electricity (mains power, not standby). So what happens at night.

This is a quote from your long post. What do you mean by mains power?

About the Lancaster. Why did you not mention the exact Lancaster? Again that same Lancaster you mentioned has hydroelectric power as its primary source followed by solar. Solar does not power the entire city as you claimed.

This again is according to Google sources.

I am not deflecting as I’m still on course of your initial claims and only verifying if you’re right or wrong which unfortunately for you, you are wrong.

We will soon start buying paracetamol for 2000 naira a sachet.

naptu2:
1) Cities like Lancaster in the United States use solar power as their main source of electricity. If a city can use solar power as its main source, then it's very easy for a mere university campus.

2) Solar power provides a significant amount of the electricity that is used in many cities in the West (not standby electricity, but the main source of electricity). The one problem that those western cities have is battery capacity. Can power from the solar plant take them through the night.

We can use Nigeria as an example. Unlike the funny comments on this thread, the people at REA have had practical experience because they have installed a lot of these plants over many years. You can see that the villager in Abuja said that they get 20 hours of power every day.

Why 20 hours and not 24 hours?

That's where Tianjin comes in.

3) Tianjin is another place that uses solar power to provide electricity (mains power, not standby). So what happens at night.

While batteries at night might power a city for 4 or 5 hours, in Tianjin they use salt to provide electricity at night.

They have a special salt that retains heat and they place this salt in towers. During the day they direct mirrors at the towers and these use sunlight to heat up the towers.

At night the heat from the salt is used to heat water and provide steam energy and generate electricity and this lasts for around 12 to 15 hours.

So, solar energy is not only used to provide standby power.

Besides, the guys from REA, the World Bank and the African Development Bank did not start this today.

Again. According to a simple Google search, that city of Lancaster, Pennsylvania USA you mentioned uses nuclear plants and natural gas as its main source of electricity.

I still ask you to provide proof that Tianjin in China uses solar as its main source of electricity.

Sheuns

Specifically, go and find out about Tianjin.

What exactly do you want us to find out? You just mentioned Tianjin.

A google search of the main power source in Tianjin shows coal-fired thermal power.

So clarify what you mean by Tianjin and its correlation with solar.

The last time an incumbent southern president was defeated in an election was by a northern candidate backed with a section of the south.

To remove Tinubu it has to be a strong northern candidate paired with a strong support from a section of the south.

Putting up a southern candidate against Tinubu may result in victory for Tinubu. The northerners may vote Tinubu because they’re guaranteed power after his second 4 years.

Peter Obi vs Tinubu in an election will favor Tinubu more.

I suspect those pushing the narrative are working for APC either directly or indirectly.

Tinubu vs a strong northern candidate is what can remove him from that seat.

Our goal should be to oust this government and party first.

Tinubu govt budgets 1.4bn naira for BH trials in the 2026 budget.

Tinubu govt released 1.46bn naira out of the less than 25bn naira budgeted for the armed forces security equipment purchase in 2025.


The same Tinubu govt gave Wike 23bn naira to renovate the house of the VP.
Tinubu govt spent 150bn naira on presidential aircraft few months after assuming office as president.

They care less about the welfare of the people and the armed forces.

We all can see where their priorities lie.

You underfund the armed forces and come around to blame the state governors for security lapses in their states.

You control all the armed forces and their budgetary resources.

Failure of a president and government.

When you compare Nigeria to Cameroon, you’ll know Nigeria is way better.

I understand your plight.

Dem call am entrepreneur, I know see Oke business wey him establish or managed in the biography.

This would take a while to be possible. You know why? Bad education.

A large population of Nigerians are ill educated and do not reason beyond tribal and religious sentiments.

If a few stands to challenge the status quo, some people can be manipulated by politicians or even do it based on he’s our son, he’s our brother to counter those that want the nation to move forward. This will give the politicians the opportunity to step in and try to squash the protesters.

Unless we have a very large percentage of the population that are wiling to tow that path, we’ll just keep running in circles.

Na maintenance and battery replacement bill go make am become dormant.

Hydro, coal or gas is still a cheaper and better option.

How many countries do we see using solar as a major source of energy? It’s always an alternative, not meant to be the main source.

ChiefOloye:
Hmmmm, what a group of bunch of jokers. If Amupitan leaves today, there a thousand people who Asiwaju can pick and they will do the job very well. But Tinubu will never bow to their blackmailing and pressure. Nigeria belong to all of us, so nothing a group of displaced people or desperate politicians can do to make a President quail.
American goes nowhere!

What job will they do very well?

delpee:
Gbadebo created problems for himself. His sister is well respected. She's the head of DSVA, an agency that is doing very well. People will surely support her if she chooses to contest for political office.

I'm not a BATist, more like non aligned so I vote based on my conviction at any point in time. I choose to be objective.

He created a problem for himself by deciding to leverage on his maternal roots while still maintaining his paternal roots?

Or because he dared to challenge the status quo?

Or that he called the so called development paraded by the APC in Lagos for over 2 decades as fraud?

bewla:
which one be your own
Most you jump enter

I must jump enter because someone has to call out the hypocrisy in that statement.

delpee:
Lagosians don't discriminate against the children of their daughters.

But they do against children of their sons?

Gbadebo is termed an outsider even when his father and father’s lineage are known to be real Lagosians, but Hamzat that his father is a monarch in Ogun state is welcome.

Hypocrisy na him go kpai many of una Batists.

Make I repeat the line of Abat boys.

“We need his brains and not his body”

Just know that on the ballot paper, ADC will come before APC.

I’m beginning to understand why ADC was adopted instead of forming a new party.

Richtaiwo:
The statement in bold reflects his personal view, and he has every right to share it with members of his party. Most importantly, he did not insult anyone, he merely expressed his opinion.

The video clearly shows him mention Ndi Igbo. Ndi Igbo are not members of his party but the entire Igbo tribe.

Don’t worry. The APC you’re romancing now will do the same or worse to you after using you.

Tareq1105:
For those who understand Lagos State politics, this GAC is the body that gives directions on what and what should happen in Lagos and who should run the state.

No Gov comes to implement his personal manifesto. You implement the roadmap programs and projects outlined by the Council though with the touch of the Gov but can't change it.

This is applicable to only APC or governors associated with APC.

If another party takes over tomorrow, GAC or whatever they’re called will be history.

If a sole administration is installed in the case of a declaration of state of emergency, the GAC dare not tell such administration how to operate else they’ll end up in the cells.

This woman works for APC. Atiku sees that and feels she can’t be trusted, that’s why her exco is not recognized by Atiku.

Her leaving won’t have any negative effect on ADC outing in Adamawa. She will be the most hit as she can’t see a decent party to contest governorship election in the state.

abbasajao:
Not any time soon.
There is no opposition in Lagos for now

Well the opposition is growing and the glue holding APC together is aging.

It’s only a matter of time. I predict in less than a decade.

Richtaiwo:
If you listen to him carefully, you will notice that he did not insult anyone at any point. He merely expressed his personal opinion and offered his advice accordingly. That, in its simplest form, is what democracy is supposed to represent.

Now compare that with the brainless mob whose only method of urging people to vote for Pitobi is to hurl insults at anyone who dares to hold a different opinion. Their entire political language begins and ends with abuse, as though empty noise can replace reason. The truth remains that Pitobi will never come close to Nigeria’s seat of power, not even in 20 millennia.

Both sides of the coins are guilty of what you say.

Tinubu supporters insult and Obidients insult. You guys call it aura for aura.

My own point is clear. Do not tell people how and who to vote using statements such as don’t waste your votes.

It’s called democracy and people have right to put their prints on whichever ballot they believe is best.

Tanko Al-Makura of the APC is the “North Central Zone”.

Let’s just be patient until the elections. Many people will die of heartaches.

Oga vote who you want to vote and let others vote who they want to vote.

Which one is don’t waste your votes.

GAC or whatever will die a natural death when APC and its leaders finally lose grip on Lagos.

What’s the benefit of this GAC to the common man?

You said it consists of former governors and all. Abeg why is Buba Marwa, Olagunsoye Oyinlola not part of the so called GAC?

If you say those were military governors, why was the greatest governor in the history of Lagos state Alh Jakande not a member before his demise in 2021?

Peter Obi must have been living and doing business in Lagos long before Tinubu became its governor.

Lagos has been a melting pot for all Nigerians long before the existence of Bulaba and his minions.
