Politics › Re: President Jonathan Commissions 500MW Omotosho Power Plant by taharqa:
0lumide: Lmao!!!!!! Same Omotosho that OBJ built is now being recommissioned?? holyeee!!! According to one of you goos here, the phase two is not rerady and he plainly painted it for you that the commission's of it is upcoming and not ready. Abi u no sabi read?
Even though I mentioned yr name in that comment, I actuali was not 'talking' to you. That was not d intent of dat post Nor was it my reason for posting the article from d very Company that built d Plant. 'Talking' to you is completely HOPELESS; I hv been on NL for sm time now, and already know that. I was talking to other persons who might hv been swayed by yr meaningless 'musings' and misguarded passion, as well as yr dishonesty at posting an article and drawing 'conclusions' from it that is clearly not in said article.... Voila!!

Jurgenbill: Omotosho power plant phase II was started in 2010 by China Machinery Engineering Corporation (CMEC). It has four units with a capacity of 500 MW, and the plant came online in May 2012. The cost of the restoration of 4 Plant units and balance of plant at Omotosho Power Plc. was the sum of USD 10,092,771.15 payable at the prevailing exchange rate at the time of payment, plus N78,753,893.30 (528,898.40 USD) for 5% VAT with a completion period of 6 months. Deborah Brautigam wrote that China Eximbank did not provide financial support for this expansion, which was apparently scaled back to 500MW instead of 750MW, because Nigeria's government defaulted on financing after paying a downpayment. Another source reported that the plant was currently co-operated by CMEC and SEPCO III. The power plant began full operation in December 2012.

HAH: Only in Nigeria" when you build house you commision and again when you build BQ you commision again "

That was what happen in most of the NIPP project most of them were built by Obasanjo and were hurriedly commisioned before he left office in 2007 and now they are being recommission by GEJ after some touches or annexes.

Anyhow kudos and I hope I will stop using generator soon.
You do not know what you are talking about!... I don't think any of d NIPP Plants were even started during OBJ's tenure- CERTAINLY, they were not built during his tenure

1MCN: It surprises me when some fellows hear about a good work done by Jonathan and his team and they rush to tell us it was initiated by the past administration(s). Gov't is a continuum. You don't expect him to dismantle a good structure already erected by past gov'ts. He's more intelligent than that. Jonathan had once lamented that there are over six thousand FG abandoned projects scattered all over the federation, and that they'll be of very great impact to the people if the projects were completed.
By insisting that Jonathan has nothing of praise for him (although he's not even interested) in the projects he completes, you make a few things too obvious, namely:
1. You have no idea how gov'ts (should) run;
2. Out of search for own-glory you won't mind scoring an own-goal;
3. Corossive hate can lead you to destroy the good name and work of a fellow man though they be beneficial to even you;
4. You're only intelligent by less than half;
5. You're a saddist who'll rather prefer that people die in penury than be saved by the saviour you don't approve of.
NOW, this is a brilliant post....

geeez: Kindly discuss intelligibly and disprove that news report

If you have anything that shows that GEJ initiated the project and did 80% of the job, then let me know
Here we go again: This particular plant's (Omotosho II) foundation stone was laid in 2010 and was basically constructed almost 100% unda GEJ. When d article talked about 2004, it was refering to when OBJ started construction for Omotosho I (which is a different plant from this 500MW Omotosho II), and which is not an NIPP Project by d way.... OBJ gets some credits of course for his initiatives, with GEJ reviving and doing most of d work. Govt is afterall a continuum; and both of them are PDP Govts. And it seems that d PDP may actuali solve Nigeria's Power problems afterall. Who knew?

awodman: Did you even read your post before opening your mouth to spew rubbish..maybe you need to read the quote below

This exclusion from list is as a result of the work by one of the numerous committee set up by GEJ which you guys lynch him for..do you even know who the chairman of this committee is?

Don't allow your hatred for Jonathan consume you..give him kudos when he deserves it
Biko @awodman, can you start to quote that article from when the FATC's statement started to to this, then highlight and post it. So we can lay this to rest... Cud hv done so but for my fone. Thnks

eGuerrilla: Listen taharqa, it is the anonymity afforded by this medium which allows some of us to pound our chests like the real life gorillas we actually are.
But for this, you would not have the temerity to issue moi any kind of warning. grin

Tell GEJ to sit up and attend to the growing pile of cases arraigned against some of his benefactors and closest allies, and I might change my mind about his tenure.

Until then, zip it and let's focus of the wider implications of our removal from FATF's list of monitored countries.
shattap! shattap!! shattap!!! ........... By d way, that comment is now full now; I added an assignment for you grin ..... Yea, you are right: lets dispense with this argument on who did Or did not do what, and focus more on d implications of d delisting, esp for businesses

eGuerrilla: No sir, Nigeria has been moving in the right direction on this front in spite of Jonathan's devil-may-care attitude to corruption, and not because of any concerted efforts being made to stem its spread.

It is to the 2013 Africa Central Bank Governor of the Year that I give credit on this one. grin

This is now getting reali SILLLY and annoying. And I thereby Temporarily withdraw my earlier position, urging d Min of Aviation to resign on account of the stu.pid move and WASTE that was d purchase of two Armour Cars. NOW, I want her to stay; I want sm people to DIE...... By d way, did Dele Momodu also take Pics from other already completed and expanded parts of that same Airport where MASSIVE work have been taken place, like d Terminals D and E Sections?? Did he take Pics of d Expanded and world class Departure hall with 18 Immigration pods up and down, Carousals, Conveyor Belts and Baggage areas, etc? Why wud a person take Pics of a few sections of an Airport still undergoing Rehabilitation/Remodelling- an Airport which by d way hv practically not bn touched in d last 20 yrs- and try to give d impression that nothing is bn done. That is so Dishonest and Sick!!... Reminds me of d Tortoise who having spent 6days 23hrs in a shitty pit, finali sees a passers-by in that last hr, and then starts to shout at d top of his voice that d stench from d pit is about to kill him!!! There sure are many Tortoises in this country

Yaa!! And about 2months ago, Nigeria won d BEST IMPLEMENTING COUNTRY IN THE WORLD on transparency in Oil/Mining Exploitation by EITI; yea, that right: Nigeria's NEITI won that award this year (this was after this same EITI threatened to suspend Nigeria about 2 years, same as this FATC did in 2010).

I just like President Jonathan. The guy, who unlike past Nigerian leaders and in spite of lots of NOISE made by Nigeria's plenty loud mouths, always keeps his cool and tries to work methodically by changing underlining Systems/Processes/Institutions in order to achieve long lasting Objectives in stead of only playing to d gallery and winning small 'victories' today.

In terms of Transperancy: signing d FOI Bill (Nigeria's most extensive move to OPEN up Governance, and a bill that EVERY other previous leada, including d last two, refused to consider); Greater Openness in Govt, including such 'details' as how much d State House spends in feeding itself and her guests (stuffs previously regarded as 'State Secrets' by past administrations); Pushing tru Nigeria's longest series of more transperant Elections in d nation's history (Anambra, Ondo, Adamawa, Sokoto, Edo, 2011, etc)- a KEY Prerequisite for more Openness; Instituting such programmes as IPPIS so as to track public spending, esp Salaries/Overheads, and d sanitation of d workforce of Ghost workers, etc; Instituting Processes that wud force Every tier of Govt and even Private Cops to use a Single Standard Accounting framework from Jan 2014- one of d 1st countries in Africa that wud start using d UN recommended system; Pushing tru d passage of d PIB Bill, a bill that wud radically change d face and current deep secrecy in d Oil/Gas Industry by amongst other tins breaking up d still very corrupt NNPC (of course, d Clowns at d NA hv been sitting on d bill for more than a year now and d HYPOCRITES who were initiali making lots of Noise b4 d President sent d bill to d NA hv all kept Mute whilst lawmakers sit on it); Etc, Etc.

Granted there is still LOTS OF WORK to be done in order to fight Corruption in this country (I wud be d 1st person to admit that, esp d need to constitute Special Courts/Judges for Corruption Cases in order to fasten up d embarrasingly snail slow speed that presently is the case), this Govt is doing a relatively Good job at Openness and Transperancy (certainly more than any previous Govt), and we have to ENGAGE the Govt in order to get even more lasting Results.

Rossikk: I really cannot believe the level of ignorance and sheer thoughtless stu.pid.ity on this thread. Firstly, there is NO SUCH THING as " the newly renovated MMIA". The airport remodelling is most definitely not completed by any stretch of the imagination. In fact everywhere you go around the airport there are signs stating that remodelling is ongoing, and for travellers to bear with the airport authority. In fact many parts of the airport are restricted from the public while the work progresses. Why then will these wicked imbeci.les come on here and pretend the remodelling is complete? And then claim a roof was leaking? Assuming a roof was leaking, shouldn't you bastards be at least grateful the airport was allowed to function at all in the face of heavy remodelling? How do you expect perfection in a facility in which construction work of all types is ongoing? In fact I think low IQ is the problem with many folks here. They just think like animals. Ridiculous.

Underground: Nigerians are indeed a funny lot. How in Heaven's name did this become an APC Vs. PDP issue? The simple and undeniable fact is that the roof/ceiling is leaking water. The pictures are there for all to see. Did I pick bowls up from the toilet or from the security scanner and place them on the floor to stage pictures of a leaking roof? Can the doubters please explainhuh Why can't Nigerians just put sentiments aside and criticize and rebuke anything that is wrong no matter who is responsible?

It didn't rain yesterday at Ikeja but there are bowls lying on the floor of our international airport collecting water from leaking ceilings. It may be the ACs that faulty. I do not know but those bowls are there and it is a national disgrace. Let's say it as it is!! What is all this nonsense talk about APC or how Stella must remain in office or how the renovated Akani Ibiam Airport Roof Is NOT Leakinghuh? My God! So the fact that Akani Ibiam Airport Roof Is NOT Leaking should be celebrated?? Have we sunk so low in our standards or are we so bereft of any standards at all that we actually post something such as the roof of an airport not leaking as something that is newsworthy and that must be celebratedhuh

Nigeria is truly finished!
