FreeGlobe: Asking for PPP's to be deleted will amount to 80% of 'Fashola projects' here to be deleted please lets leave it here. we must applaud Nigeria's Private Sector which has been conditioned to domicile in Lagos by govt policies for their intervention in lagos. The only way we can stop this fraudulent action of Fashola is to demand the that Fashola should from henceforth commission only state owned projects!

Afam4eva: As far as Infrastructural development is concerned based on the revenue that accrues to the states, i will rate Akwa-Ibom ahead of Lagos state. Though Lagos has equally done well when compared to previous governments.

agbameta: Water works..

Are these the images if mini water works? This goes to butress the point I keep making. The capacity of a single water work in Lagos surpasses the total of the all the so called- most of the pictures are actually boreholes-in akwa ibom.

karl max: don't mind them. Na the ppp road that was poorly renovated by lcc ...the lekki-epe expreSs road that has not been completed since 7years now and yet were paying toll for it as work is going on...

cjrane: [size=18pt]Fashola is a shameless noise maker. Like his average native Yoruba person. It is an insult to compare him to Akpabio that have been developing his state without any help from the Federal Government nor heavily taxing non-indigenes unfairly, only to deport them after using their tax money.

If the Federal Government of Nigeria had not built Lagos as Nigeria's Federal capital territory and in the process creating our present economic problems by the mindless spending of all our money earned in the oil boom days on Lagos infrastructure, instead of building sustainable industries around the country to help Nigeria develop in a balanced way . Lagos would have been far less developed than Ado Ekiti in spite of Fashola's noise making.[/size]

Goddex: Akpabio beats Fashola by miles. The Lagos media hype is Fashola's only tool. That is why if he provides street lights on Ikorodu road or Ipaja road, his illiterate foot soldiers will move it straight to front page for celeberation. Meanwhile, almost all of Uyo and Calabar are lit up with functional (I repeat "Functional" street lights every night and nobody is making noise about it. The Federal Govt's owned Abuja metropolis is almost entirely lit up every night with street light and GEJ nor the FCT minister has never mentioned that as an achievement. The rate at which my Lagosian brothers celebrate mediocrity these days surprises me.

Fashola's only major legacy project is Eko Athlantic city. Even that is being Co financed with private sector funding. He has also done a lot in road construction and despite the huge revenue base of Lagos state he has acquired so much debts for upcoming generations. But how does all that compare with Akpabio who is doing the following:

1) Free and Compulsory education

2) Ibom Power Plant

3) Akwa Ibom International Airport

4) Ibaka deep Seaport

5) Excellent quality road network around the lenght and breath of the state

6) 30,000 seater international stadium

7) Took practical steps to establish the Akwa Ibom state University

FreeGlobe: Absolute nonsense, all the yorubas championing anti Jonathan campaign are totally corrupt and failed leaders. If they are sincere as you said why did they keep shut during obasanjo's 8 years

tokunboh: Bro, can you please run a brief analysis of this map for the ignorant ones to understand. This map simply shows there are alternative routes our man, Amaechi could have taken. The Demi-god of confusion is out to do what he does best - confusion and distortion of facts.

okpurukata: This is the only truth of the whole matter. The Governor usually uses the making gate into the govt house, which is on Azikiwe road. Why must it be today that there was fracas near that back gate, that he must pass through with the same team of his new PDP? Why look for trouble with open eyes. The streets around that back gate was blocked following the fracas earlier in the day. The governor is simply not above the law. He is just seeking sympathy. Not mine though.

texaco1: I won't trade insults with u,but read the report again and this time around read it slooooowly and carefully then digest it,maybe then you will understand the situation better.

texaco1: bro please ,what do u mean without his consent or knowledge?security situations can change at any given times ,they informed him when he got there and amaechi been a sensible person obeyed knowing fully well that the police was doing their job.if he was allowed to pass through and maybe something happened on his was in ,you people will be the first to come here and say why wasn't he redirected to take another route .amaechi himself is not making any fuse about this issue .he was simply asked to follow another gate that is all .

Sincere 9gerian: There's a lawful way of forming a faction. You cant just sit in your bedroom and form faction of APC or PDP. The lawful factionalization of a party must come from split of the existing national working committee. That is what the law says. It is immoral, wrong and illegal for some people to gather at a beer parlour joint and announce factionalization of a party. But being shameless hypocrites, you and your fellow goons celebrated the immoral and illegal act.

Sincere 9gerian: You guys are just shameless hypocrites. How many of you cried foul when Amaechi and his gang of northern governors cloned the PDP and called it newPDP and sacked the PDP leadership? Is it constitutional to clone an already existing body? It seems what determines what is wrong or right depends on whose on the receiving end. If the president is on the receiving end (like the newPDP) you celebrate but when those on the other end are at the receiving (eg NGF election, Rivers crisis) you scream illegality.

I insist that the police has every right to stop the governor if what he's about to do will lead to break down of law and order. You guys forgot that president can declare state of emergency all over nation or any part of the country. When it comes to law and order or enforcing the law, extra-ordinary measures can be taken. I deal with FACTS, not sentiments. I also stated that if the reason for stopping the governor was not because of law and order or enforcing the law, then the police is wrong and those involved in the act should be sanctioned. That is my position

Sincere 9gerian: Is that what the constitution says? If the governors entry into the govt house thru that route will cause break down of law and order, it is the constitutional responsibility of the police to prevent that from happening.

Sincere 9gerian: The police authorities are not fools. No one is above the law. If Gov Amaechi engages in acts that infringes on the laws, it is the constitutional responsibility of the police to call the governor to order. No sentiments. However, if the police acted unlawfully in this instance, then the president should sanction whoever was responsible.

Demdem:
I raised the issue with his boss and I think they gave me the justice I deserve.

kingbang: Where is the answer? Shameless hypocrite! You guys condemned the Jang faction for it's illegality and now you all are supporting another illegality just because it suits your agenda. I ask you again: What process threw Baraje up as the PDP chairman? Hide your face in shame.

successking: I think at this juncture, that an in-depth investigation should be carried out over the division in PDP, just to determine whether or not the APC has a hand in the crisis rocking PDP.

kingbang: Please i want to ask some APC hypocrites a question here:

What Legal process made Baraje the PDP chairman?

Are you guys not the same f00ls criticizing the Jang led faction of NGF? The same f00ls are now supporting an illegal faction of PDP just because it suits their agenda? Shame on all you hypocrites!

Billygee2u: Are you people fools without thinking faculty? Do you want JEG to allow the opposition that has confused some members of PDP, to succeed in their evil plot ,by allowing the so called new PDP to become a stumbling block to the the real PDP ? Does it mean that you blind fellows, are ignorant of what the APC wants to achieve by their constant criticism on JEG government?

djfaithy: . Wetin concern dem be dey dem be opposition party and even in developed world opposition party criticize every little mistake of the ruling party/govt, I don't really know why, guys on NL are now taking it personal,its democracy and there are right to freedom of speech and lai did not abuse that right in his speech,after all PDP dey openly criticize APC too.

Akpa ife: Gej till 2019 heaters hug naked high tension

Jman06: Jonathan is NOT weak and indecisive,he is only a DEMOCRAT who believes in dialogues and takes decisions in line with the wishes of the people,but since some nothern political extremists have decided to challenge him to a fight,let him deploy all his arsenals and fight them to a standstill.We are solidly behind him.

omonnakoda: so shut up and let us have some quiet

omonnakoda: Your point is pointless because we do not agree zoning and rotation exists in PDP . I gave the example of Ibori . Dela state is diverse enough for zoning to be verifiable.
if you don't like "subjective" arguments as you call them naff off from nairaland and spare us your arrogance.
if your facts are easily verifiable substantiate them.
The reality is there is no consensus on the existence of so called zones. Northerners contested against Obasanjo when he went for his second term so there is no formal zoning arrangement that has been put before the public EVER. Any arrangement is purported,currently disputed and unverifiable

jamace: Those who said GEJ is an earthworm with out a backbone can see that the earthworm has an in-built spring that propels it.

omonnakoda: Did you see the agreement or did you sign.

There is nothing ike south in Nigeria . Which Zone ?
The so called zones are a fiction and fraud. If you want to talk of zones you must do a National conference. You hear Arewa all the time have you ever heard of a Southern Nigeria Political meeting. Did Southern Nigeria agree on Obasanjo?
There is not enough information to determine if the PDP practices zoning e.g in Delta state Ibori handed over to his cousin .Was that zoning. How did Yar'adua emerge was it by zoning if so share the evidence for this

That is the North's agenda, this whole talk of zoning. The North West and the East is the basis on which our Founding father agreed Independence. How can the North then decide to merge East and West. Which Ibo man or Ijaw man signe up to that arrangement. Please name them

One Aboki will just wake up one day and tell you there are 6 "geopolitical zones and there is power rotation from North to South Why not rotate from East to West.

The reality is power was ceded to Yoruba because of JUNE 12.
Any discussion of zoning should happen AFTER with very clear rules and agreement.
The position should be that after resolving the June 12 problem we press the RESET button.

e.g if we say power must rotate from North to South would it be acceptable to move power from Olusegun Obasanjo to Bukola Saraki
Power rotation cannot be agreed in the night it must be done in broad daylight

omonnakoda: Who or what is a southerner. Power was not zoned to the south in 1999 it was zoned to the Yoruba. Not the Ibo Not the Edo Not the Efik Not The Ijaw. It is dishonest to say power was zoned to the South. There has NEVER been anything like SOUTH in Nigerian politics rather we have had North East and West so if power was zoned to Yoruba next it should be open to EVERYONE.
