Nonsense.
There are thousands of state roads that needs fixing.
FG will repair the airport road by themselves.
*cheap blackmailers*

This gbawe of a guy just specialise in digging up questionable anti-GEJ articles.
This old man has become so predictable.
He is either spamming nairaland with untrue anti-GEJ news or unreal pro-Acn propaganda.

OP,
how old are you?
*Smh at kids praying for coups*.

CAMEROONPRIDE: I don't think so

yes you can.
All you need do is become a naturalized citizen of any Nigerian state,then apply through the state.

plaindealer: It's funny how you here blowing flowers and roses over a misguided and foolish adventure, but you have no clue that your federal government is borrowing money from china to carry out this foolery...


What a shame...

Let's even assume for a moment that the funds were borrowed.
Pls tell me what's wrong in using low interest loans to refurbish our airports.

I think it would be best if we just wait and see, because i am tired of arguing.
This would be my last reply on this thread.

paniki: It's trade people - you give me something, and I give you something. At the moment Nigeria only gives oil while SA gives a long list of things.

Sorry,we don't need your 'long' list.
Many of those things you think you can offer can be made in Nigeria by Nigerians.

zaandrew: really
http://www.doingbusiness.org/rankings

SA is ranked 39 while nigeria is at 131

you mostly sell crude oil i want to know what else

The ease of doing business in Nigeria has been hampered majorly by electricity issues though it has improved in recent times.
And last time i checked, Nigeria still attracts more investments than SA,so once electricity in Nigeria is stabilized SA is a goner.
Btw,if you think the only thing Nigeria has to trade is crude oil,then you must be more dumb than i thought.

zaandrew: Night time power use is when it is at it lowest, and 18 hours means there will always be somewhere without power due to rolling blackouts. it will not be enough because as soon has people build factories the problem will return.

Yes and the biggest investors by numbers are from south africa.

So you going to build 3 of the biggest docks in subshara africa in how long, what about banking system, stability, extra.Electricity is only one of a host of problems you face, and you little power project will not fix it

Everything you wrote is balderdash.
1)18 hrs of uninterrupted electricity in the commercial cities will be enough to serve the energy needs of car companies.
And you have no reason beside bitterness to say otherwise.
2)southafrican investments are many but negligible.
The biggest investors in the most critical sectors comes from asia and america.
The biggest SAn investment in Nigeria is MTN and it has a Nigerian competitor GLO.
3)our banks are relatively stable and hugely capitalized and they are spread all across Africa.
Infact the best African bank 2012 was won by GTB a Nigerian bank.
Our banks ranks among the best in Africa.

For those of you who don't know,most of the winners have been from public schools.

Wao!
So this competition is still on.
I won 4th during my time with a score of 85%,and it was very competitive and intense then.
Congratulations to the young boy.

zaandrew: Is that with the wish of new factoris included. 18hours, so rolling black outs. Why would any one build a factory where it will be effected by rolling black outs.

Check the nastion coutbiting to FDI. All those small scall investements add up.

Only resone nigeria has not had strikes is because most are self employed.

170million but how many of them are completing school.

What about export is nigeria set up for this added export. Is expanding durban and build a new port due to demand.

It not just electrcal power that brings these people here.

SA is far more stabel, doing bussness is easyer, a large educted work force, all the infustrucer is all read in place. We control 80% of the african automotive industry. You really think that small increase in power will allow you to compet with us.

The automobile companies will not work for 24 hours so yes,18 hrs of uninterrupted electricity in the daytime will be enough atleast for a start.
The target is still 24 hrs electricity.
Secondly,as i said before,Nigeria is a far more attractive investment destination than SA.
The Stats are there to prove it.
Thirdly Southafrica is not that developed,whatever infrastructure you think you have can be replicated in Nigeria in the shortest possible time.
The only real constraint is electricity,which will be taken care of.

mankand: Why wont the bunch of goons condemn?

They know their time is coming soon. The people have start realising the power belongs to them. They can make you and kick you out.

As for Insincere9gerian, Abati, Okupe e.t.c, I advise you start seeking asylum in dollarland because even for Nairaland, we trust Sheun, he will not grant you all asylum

stop talking like a simpleton.
A coup cannot solve anything,it will only worsen things.
If you are not satisfied with your leaders,vote them out instead.
Many countries in the world are going through leadership problems,yet it's only in Africa and the mad middle-east that we see coups as a viable solution.

dridowu: Anywhere belle face, since us reject am , we 2 reject am, if us accept am, we 2 go accept am.

sorry,the US have not rejected the coup.
The US are covertly in support for their own selfish interest.

[quote author=na2day!]One word - FEAR![/quote]what fear?
Nigeria can never go to the era of coup again,and GEJ is not power drunk.
The concern is for smaller african countries prone to coups.

Nigeria had to say something sooner or later and she cannever be seen supporting a coup.
That would set off a dangerous chain of coups across the continent.
Egypt has set a very precendence for themselves.

anonimi: You obviously forgot about 10 million children out of school and MISPLACED PRIORITY when you wrote just two days ago on the thread that Fashola BEGINS Lekki airport and seaport:



Can we conclude that your sympathy for the out-of-school children is FAKE
Can we go further and use your analogy to say GEJ should be a subject to be study (sic) in Nigerian universities for COMPLETING the rehabilitation of many airports in the country
SMH!!!

hahaha.
That bluetooth guy is very funny.
It's only when it comes to GEJ that they remember poor children.
Lagos has the one of the highest number of street children,yet the oga at the top is building EKO ATLANTIC.
Sadly,the responsibility of these children lies with the state govt.

Pataki: An airport re-decorated to appease the north? How exceedingly foooolish can this president get to be??


I was at MMA earlier this year, and that airport is an INTERNATIONAL DISGRACE!!!

I am sure you were blind to the nationwide refurbishment of the airports.
*All these APC goons sef*

AnanseK: You are wrong , the airports (including Kano) are being decorated for the Aviation Minister and her superiors to siphon money from the treasury. Creating employment is too boring and does't produce kick back.

stop talking nonsense.
Are you saying the aviation ministry should receive no allocation?
Stop waiting for govt to put food on your table,it's not their job .
Get out and create for yourself.
Many people are already benefiting from FG loans and bettering their own lives.

babyosisi: Like which states please

Were Kano,Lagos,PH the only 3 international airports not built by the federal govt

fYI Imo airport was not even built by any government
It was built by the people of Imo from community contributions and handed over to the govt
Ask any imolite
No other state in Nigeria can boast of individuals doing anything close by their own donations.

I don't think the FG wants to build more airports,that's why i said imo should build theirs.
Akwaibom and delta states built theirs themselves.

Yomieluv: reality,and statistically,the level of poverty in the northern part is alarming...why can a reasonable government engage in project that will benefit the people,and not a project that would benefit a selected few..

you see only what you want to see.
The ongoing agricultural transformation under the minister of agric adewunmi adesina is strategically positioned to empower the northern people.
Many of them are already tapping into it and enriching themselves.
If you watched the ministerial platform,you would know.

babyosisi:
an old 2007 article but puts things in perspective




Acidosis please pay attention to the figures highlighted part and tell me why Kano should have an international airport instead of Owerri

if Imo needs an international airport, then they will have to build it themselves just like many states did.

lakpa lakpa: I'd prefer pictures of schools built by GEJ not an edifice to enable money launderers do ttheir tin easily...

Gej has built lot of schools for the almajiris in the North,along with 9 new universities.
There was a picture of one of those federal universities on nairaland not longer ago.

Yomieluv: a good government invest in human capitalization,and not some ego showing project,that reeks of nothing but misplacement of priority.

and why is the title reading :After Jonathan,is Jonathan out of office,or Dead?

I know you must think you've said something smart.
Where were you when your mates were applying for the YOUWIN loan scheme?
So you are telling me that refurbishing our airports to world class standards is a waste of funds?
Na wa o.

zaandrew: Really you will still be far behind SA then and we have a smaller population.
I don't see nigeria producing anything at that level.

remove all FDI for south africa and SA is the largest contributor to FDI in africa. Basically the investors you speak of south african.

SA already covers the west and central african market and the east not to forget north and south.

10000MW will be enough to kickstart our economy and that is for a start.
It will give us atleast 18 hours of uninterrupted electricity in commercial cities, which are usually where most of these companies are sited.
Secondly,most of the biggest investors in Nigeria are actually from Asia and america.
The southafricans are in the smaller sectors of the economy though in larger numbers.
I don't mind,though.
They see Nigeria as a viable investment destination and they come.
Thirdly,Nigeria is a far more attractive destination for car manufacturers and technological companies due to significantly cheaper labour and less stress from labour Unions.
The only advantage SA has is electricity,and once that is fixed they will naturally enter Nigeria.
They have no business in southafrica,when there's a 170million cheap labour and direct market with decent electricity.
Thirdly,there is nothing special about SAn technology,though decent but it's still in a crude stage.
Nigeria already has the technological manpower both in Nigeria and abroad.
What Nigeria needs now is to solve electricity issues and indigenous technology will expand.

Lol.

The spotlight should be on governors.
Those guys are bloody corrupt and the masses are not saying anything.
Everybody is focused on abuja.

That official should be hanged for treason.
Na wa o.

chizel: Apology my foot,medicine after death.wether they live in the moon or not should not be excuse enough for them to hv gone against the doctrines of the church,this goes to tell us that even there in Jamaica or where ever they were staying,that they are not in any way adhering to the doctrines of the church,as for their suspension,I will advice that it should also be extended to their fathers too for attending the wedding even when they know that their children's action runs contrary to the tenets ad doctrines of the church,and untill that is done,I will stop taking the deeper life and their members serious.

It's not medicine after death.
He has openly repented before the world and God has forgiven him.
He's free from the blood of all those that would decide to copy him.

I am indeed moved by the sincereity and humility of this man.
Many so-called pastors would have been consumed by pride that they wouldn't even acknowledge the error of their ways in secret let alone before the world.
The beauty of genuine christianity and repentance in action.
