Sowore and Falana again. These are the true freedom fighters we have in Nigeria today.

atiku4President:
See this mumu. Goodluck with PhD was deputy to sick Yar'Adua and heaven did not fall. Osibanjo a lawyer and a London trained economist was vice to brainless and gworo chewing Buhari, yet nobody said anything. Keep over rating yourself.

Nobody said anything?? You people lie boldly!

I'm any case he just said he doesn't mind being the vice so what is really your point?

PrinceOfLagos:
Reno is just shameless. I knew that all his wrong accusations against Peter Obi was to get tinubu attention

This was the same tinubu that Reno abused and defamed that he pushed drug in United states back in the day.

Reno is a man with zero integrity

So the allegations against Obi are false but the ones against Tinubu are true?



What is inside that Brain of yours?

MadPolitician:
Just went through my post again. I can't see where i mentioned "yoruba people".

Can we stay politically correct by just saying "Lagos state"? Looks like you're playing the tribal card while accusing others of tribalism

Being clever by quarters! Did you not use the example of handing over FCT assets to Gwari people? Was that not a false equivalence?? Lol. I say, good one sir.

MadPolitician:
"Dead assets" should be privatised through a well organised privatisation process sanctioned by the national assembly. The constitution must recognise the process. That is not the case here. These multi billion naira edifices, were give to Lagos state for free. They are not supposed to be handed over to an APC state by a federal government led by an APC president! That is what we call "conflict of interest". It is corruption, but how would you know, if you are a member of a party that has more or else normalised corruption in the country?


I wasn't arguing with anyone. I stated a very clear point. Federal assets must go through clear processes known to the constitution, before being handed over to anyone. These are not properties built or bought by Lagos state. They were built by the federal government as federal assets! You wouldn't see my point because somehow, the illegality going on at the moment favours you and your principals. But if tomorrow, a president not from the APC comes on, and starts handing all sorts of federal government built assets to say Gwari people in Abuja, I'm sure the notorious Lagos ibadan expressway media houses will be up in arms as usual.

So the assets where handed over to Yoruba people not Lagos State which is a federating unit where all Nigerians live, work and have equal access to said assets? Okay sir. Good one.

MadPolitician:
Stretching your nebulous logic a little further, the federal government should hand all the refineries, rolling mills, fettilizer complexes, the sea ports and the oil wells to states where those are located? Since federal assets in Lagos can now easily be hyjacked by Lagos state using her ubiquitous presence in the APC?
Lol
The problem with some of you agbadorians, is that you guys think you are too smart. National assets dashed away to one state, and you are here talking of Lagos ability to maintain them. What and what has your Lagos been able to maintian more than the federal government or other states? Her Dilapidated achools and squalid neighbourhoods?
Dey play

And what do you know of logic in the first place? If said refineries and so on are in a state of disuse and do not provide revenue to the federal government, and if the States where they are located can maintain them then yes that is the best thing to do.

But it takes a special kind of silly mind to compare a dead asset like a stadium that produces no revenue to seaport and refineries. Is there not a seaport in Lagos? Has it been handed over to the State?

Anyway I think most Nigerians are used to these ridiculous arguments by now so continue jare.

MadPolitician:
Why was the State House Marina handed over to the Lagos state government without any serious consultation with other states? That was a very important federal asset, and why are they trying to hand over the National Stadium and The National Theatre to the same Lagos state government?

Next presidentia lelections, someone born yesterday will say Tinubu built all those.

National monuments built by the federal government as collective assets of all states! All these while Lagos continues to get the lion share of federal allocations, inspite of her massive tax earnings, arising from the dividends of the enormous federal investments in infastructures when Lagos was the federal capital

Has Nigeria not done enough for Lagos?

Stupid talk. Those facilities were all in a terrible state of disarray. When last was a football game held at the so-called Antional stadium?? You would rather watch them decay than hand them over to those who would maintain them out of silly jealousy. What does handing over the national stadium to Lagos do for Lagos?? Is it not already situated there? Imagine the idea that other states should be consulted...as in, it should be handed over to Kano or Abia abi?

Brendaniel:
I'm only telling them the truth, they are the ones causing the problem because they see everything an Igbo man does as an offense, I'm not blaming the entire tribe but the tribalists among them...

But never the tribalists among yours? Or let me guess, there are none and other tribes are the problem. That's okay, but the question is if you can deceive yourself why do you feel entitled to deceive others?

Kenneth4u205:
He is guilty. He stole 3000 and another guy stole the remaining money . So that makes both of them thieves

And that means he should have been tortured? Empty mind.

airsaylongcome:
Useless how? They were migrating to a new platform which ultimately means there would be some downtime. Maybe the down time was a bit longer than expected, but the Bank is rock solid and definitely ain't useless

A bit longer? Do you appreciate the extent of disruption even an hour of outage can cause to an individual or business? Not to mention days as it has been now. Is migrating to a new platform rocket science? Are they the first to do it? I've used Zenith for over 2 years now so my comment comes from personal, painful experience. I have two other banks and neither is as reliably unreliable as Zenith.

It will always remain a mystery how they won bank of the year last year. A thoroughly useless bank.

Pls for someone who will be working around bolingo hotel, where is the best place rent house to live, considering transport and house rent

Depends on your budget. If you can afford it, Wuse, Garki [2m and up] If you have a modest budget, Lugbe [600k and up].

wonlasewonimi:
This is what happens when you just regurgitate rubbish online.

Here is excerpt from the SAB Miller investment:

After the merger of the three companies-SABMiller Nigeria Holdings BV and Brauhaase International Management GMBH-two subsidiaries of Anheuser-Busch InBev, will hold 47.4 per cent and 27.7 per cent equity stake respectively in International Breweries, giving the foreign majority core investor controlling equity stake of 75.1 per cent. Ministry of Finance of Anambra State will hold 4.7 per cent equity stake while other minority shareholders will hold the remaining 20.2 per cent equity stake.

Please dont refer me to chatgpt, just tell me how this is Obi's family business and how they intend to to gain from investing Anambra's funds in there? Thanks in advance.

So what exactly have you posted here? Does it in any way contradict or rather reinforce what I have said?

Like I just told you, and as you have confirmed, no, SAB Miller Niger was not a publicly listed company. The entire thing was privately held.

I will not engage further until you have checked with ChatGPT and openly paste the response you got. But of course, you won't do that, will you? And we all know why.

wonlasewonimi:
Dude, there is nothing like a privately held subsidiary of SAB Miller Nigeria lol. You people just come online to hoodwink innocent readers

Never said there was. Are you slow or what exactly is doing you? I said SAB Miller Nigeria was a privately held subsidiary of SAB Miller. That's a fact but you don't have to agree. I don't care.

NovusHomo:
That, my friend, is CORRUPTION.

I believe that was my point

wonlasewonimi:
Your explanation does not make sense. What if his family invested in GT Bank, public company. And he also invested the state fund in there, like every institutional investor do, how has he enriched himself and his family?

Yes I can see you can't get it, that's why I asked you to use ChatGPT. When you do that come back and paste what it tells you.


And btw, the company they invested in was SAB Miller Nigeria, a privately held subsidiary of SAB Miller. If you really want to understand, do what I said. Paste it into ChatGPT and come back with the answer.

I know you won't though, so cheers!

wonlasewonimi:
But SAB Miller is a public company; how did he enrich himself? please explain

The explanation is right there in what I posted. If you don't get it, copy what I wrote and paste it into ChatGPT and ask it to explain to you like a 6 year old. Believe me, you'll get it.

appini:
It's like Baba Falana na Azaman in a different level. The coded paymaster.

What exactly did he do here? Does providing advice as a lawyer amount to being the one collecting the funds?

Realtruth2023:
How much shares did they buy and how many shares did they buy? Oya tell us naaaaa.

What is the relevance of this to the subject? They did, and they did, thereby occasioning a conflict of interest whether it was for 50 kobo and 25 kobo, respectively. Is that not so?

Realtruth2023:
Hold on when will you people have sense. So SAB Miller a south African brewery now belongs to PO's family abi. You people are just too daft for my liking walahi.

Shattap. Obi's family bought shares in SA Miller before he invested Anambra funds into it. Meaning he was a part owner of a venture he took state funds and gave to in the name of buying worthless shares. A clever scheme.

If you still don't understand what that means, it means he enriched himself and other investors (his partners) at the expense of the state.

Okoroawusa:
Falana again?

I just dey laugh...🤣🤣🤣

What did he do? He was asked for advice and he merely provided it... Is there an issue there?

Orch1981:
Is this a joke or what?

What do you think?

Love800:
What is the difference between hydroelectricity and gas?

Oh, the difference is huge. Hyrdoelectrictiy refers to the generation of electricity using water-based sources, typically by powering turbines using a dam. It's a potentially complex process. Now, gas, on the other hand, is fart - what Nigerians call mess. The proper name for this is natural gas. When enough Nigerians fart, which we do a lot, (trust me 200 million people farting up the place daily no be beans -- well, yes eating lots of beans can help). So as I was saying, this fart is collected by the federal government and compressed. I'm sure you have being hearing about the government's CNG conversion program. This CNG stands for compressed natural gas, or in simple terms, compressed fart. It is highly flammable and can be used to generated electricty.

givedemwotowoto:
Check the same month in previous years as far back as 15 years, and tell us how it went

Electricity always improves during the rainy season every year

This may have been true some years ago when Nigeria relied mainly on hydroelectricity. Now, we rely mostly on gas.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]I don't care, sir

If you want to transport it by air, that's your business

Enough of all these noise about your refinery, abeg.[/color]

Is there any time when Dangote came to inform you personally? Why are you so pained?

Cc SmartyPants

What we have here are two contradictory stories. One person says she heard a grant was applied for in her name, and other says he never did, but someone else he was aware of wrote a concept not (note that writing a concept note is merely putting an idea on paper).

Do you think it is fair to take this conversation and turn it into irrefutable proof that Sowore applies for grants on other people's behalf? Which organization will grant such anyway?? Let's put on our thinking caps...what does an a grant application in someone else's name look like? Which account is it paid to? Who gets interviewed? Is it possible?

Godwin4444:
sowore that was protesting n even using names of other protesters to apply for grant under federal government

Sowore that is collecting aids for protest from foreign bodies

Dey play

Can you kindly share a source for this? I'd like to verify.

Atuero:
What goes around comes around

Edo na Lagos pro-max now.

Edo allocation will first be taken to Lagos for sharing before the balance will be given to the Governor

Expect power media team assembly soon for propaganda and cover up

Shattap.

DaddyCoool:
What you described is called SUBSIDY!

There's no place where I said its not called subsidy. I said it's an indirect subsidy in the sense that no amount of money moves from one party to another. No one is getting paid under this scheme, rather the government through the NNPC simply absorbs the costs.

APOSTLECHUMA:
What a golden dawn for Lebanese people to reject Hezbollah's path of terror and be the peace loving people that God made them.

What so many don't know is that several decades ago, Lebanon was a majority Christian country. The mass migration of Palestinains into Lebanon changed the demographics of that country and led to the creation of Hezbollah.
