FCT seems to be the best of them all.

Lowest incidence of poverty and the lowest GINI.

Lagos isn't doing so great, but that maybe because Lagos is taking statistics.

I don't trust Nigerian statistics. We can't even get a census right.


The FG census of Lagos state said it was 7m people, when the state took its own census, lo and behold 15m people living there.

The beginning of hell?


Nigeria wasn't too far off on December 23th 2009 to be quite honest.

Half dead president, broken roads, sprawling slums, grinding poverty, 70% adult illiteracy, corruption, no power, water, sanitation, Niger delta rebels, Boko Haram, environmental degradation even without any industrialization, filth, crime, kidnapping, tribalist bigotry, and most of all widespread acceptance of ignorance and stupidity.

No, this fella did not create hell for Nigeria.

He brought the hell known as Nigeria, out of its box.

America had colonized the Phillipines in the past. Plenty of rape and murder.

I wouldn't be quite so open to colonial mis-adventures in Africa [b]EVER [/b]again!!!

Military intervention would destroy this country.

Pifa:


No one makes coal-fired locomotives anymore. The trains will most likely have diesel engines. I say diesel because the other alternative is electrified rail lines (track or overhead cables). But given the electricity situation in Lagos, I am not sure the authorities would choose this mode.

Flintstones.

AfroCynic:

Fashola does not need to serve a second time as Governor. He is ripe for the job of president! Obama was only two years in the senate before he ran for POTUS. There is no other candidate that has got a track record like BRF. I will vote for him should he grow them to run!

Who says Obama will be a good president?

About fking time, 20 years too late but whatever.

Hopefully when the PDP rig themselves into power in 2011 they won't cancel this or steal the funds.

Dying for Arabs, Bleep, what's the world come to.

Stop sending them aid. End of story.

Another failed African state with completely bleeped up priorities.

These are good times to be African.

Just bring him back to Nigeria.

Dies in custody, mosque is bulldozed, and Soyonka talks about lack of jobs and prospects for our youth yadda yadda and everyone is happy.

Please send him back to Nigeria so we can deal with him like we dealt with Boko haram.

The nomadic grazers must go.

Nigeria needs to transform into full industrial farming.

Herding goats doesn't feed a nation of 150m.

missing, but not necessarily a bad thing considering the way most Africans govern.

edoyad:

With Okonjo-Iweala as chief architect of course, or have y'all forgotten ?

She stopped chop chop and so she got kicked out.

Eh, Whatever if this was Kenya people would be torching each other by now.

10 years ago we were up there.

Nchara:

The makers are already private people, but it is rather unregulated and a reason the govt should step in.

Then I don't see what the problem is.

I am all pro guns making. I wish we made tanks, missiles and nukes too.

A healthy weapons industry is the backbone of every regional power.

I'm not sure how Nigeria was important in the world other than exporting people and oil.

people being in factories is good, they work etc.

Making weapons is key. Importing weapons is bad.

But making them should be the job of private companies.

South Africa needs to recruit a record number of police for the event. Why are they dithering?

well fck

We can win it, but the team has to be firing on all cylinders.

I'm tired of seeing renders.

I want to see construction photos.

He should finish his term and not run 2012.

Well, you're in New York.

I am delighted for them.

Let us congratulate our distant east African brothers on this massive achievement.


Some Nigerians actually think breaking up Nigeria into tiny kingdoms and caliphates will make their lives better. It's all misconceptions.

I'd prefer a Nigerian coach our national team.

This brings back flashbacks of Chernobyl.
