Northernblood7:
This might be the reason for recent dollar upward rage. The more scarce dollar is, the more the demand gets intense causing price to go up. Imagine a whole Dangote refinery importing crude oil embarassed embarassed cry , We are finished. Dollar is heading to 3000.
Won't he sell the finished product outside too and get dollars?

This is a really remarkable project.
I don't know whether it is a 100% Lagos state funded project, or whether the Federal govt contributed in part or whole to its funding.
I strongly suspect federal funding because this is Nigeria.
If Lagos state funded it solo, then there's no reason why Ibaka seaport should not have been completed by now.
Governments of eastern states should learn from Lagos about delivering big projects.
Truth.
Bureaucracy

Politics › Re: Tinubu Meets Service Chiefs Over Rising Insecurity by ubox: 9:08pm On Jan 16, 2024
Dobodobo04:
How does Tinubu solve insecurity. In the interim, there are few ideas.

We need ordinary citizens to be able to safely and anonymously provide intelligence and tip offs to security agencies across board with rewards offered if information proves useful.

How do we facilitate that? Currently, SIM cards need to be registered. We will design SIM cards in such a way that if Kabiru from Abuja buys a SIM card from any vendor, he can use it call any designated security agencies toll free and anonymously. He can easily throw the sim away afterwards. To get his reward, a code will be forwarded to that number and he can go to any cash machine across the country to receive his money and do away with the sim.
Obviously, not all infos will be rewarded. Only infos that lead to security gains.

We also need recruited informants across the country, from banditry, kidnappings, terrorism, ritual killings, cultism, etc.

Once our security agencies build pictures, they should be proactive in predawn raids. They should have well trained intelligence officers and call handlers in offices to weed out and disrupt them in their planning stages.

We need special operatives to carry out these raids, and can partner with USA to train some of our elite soldiers to SEAL level. We can assign a formidable army officer to head the task force.

Once we start disrupting and arresting the criminals, we should charge them to court with evidence.

Minister of Interior also need to build mega prisons, US style manned by private companies under the guise of the government. Anyone charged should be sent to prison. We need bigger modern prisons that are functional and humane. No more overcrowding because with this new set up, we will be anticipating plenty criminals will be serving jail terms.

We also need well trained hostage negotiators and special task force that can storm hideouts, perform safe rescues and lethally engage with the criminals.

I currently won’t trust the current security operatives in our country to attempt hostage rescue. They can be better with advanced training from partners abroad.

I’m the long run, all our security agencies across board need refresher courses. All rank and file over the years should either train with formidable foreign partners or go to those countries for training before they get promoted.

Most of our security agencies have bad habits that needs weeding out, so continuous training is necessary
All of this na serious money

Shameful.
He doesnt know the kind of poor aesthetics it gives that he is holding his own meeting after Wike had had meeting with heads of Abuja security agencies.
The COS should have told Wike to delay his meeting till this one held by Tinubu,unless Tinubu had no original intention to call any security meeting until he held about Wike's own.
He would be making Wike feel like one untouchable star of the administration now.
Very somehow something

It's not akpabio's, Victor atah lay down the infrastructural blueprints for akwa ibom state and it's there for any incoming governor to work with. Mind you Victor atah is an architect by profession.
It's very easy to abandon his vision, kudos to Akpabio for delivering too

Travel › Aviation Minister Keyamo Inspects Victor Attah Int’l Airport, Akwa Ibom by ubox(op): 3:12pm On Jan 16, 2024
The Minister for Aviation and Aerospace Development, Mr Festus Keyamo, SAN, says the New Terminal building at the Victor Attah International Airport, which is almost ready for use, is the best terminal building built by a sub-national in the country.

The terminal has the capacity to process both domestic and international flights operations simultaneously, and the pleasantly surprised Minister said it was a secret well kept by Akwa Ibom Government.

While being led on a tour of the airport facilities by Governor Umo Eno, the Minister commended past Governors for the huge investments in aviation development.

“The maintenance, repairs and overhaul facility is the first ever in the country and will service the whole of Nigeria, West Africa, East Africa and North Africa”, he said, and commended Governor Eno for his determination to complete the projects.

NNPC is now a profit making organisation under PIB. The last thing they need is to have government setting their prices. In my opinion, prices will remain above N500 for the foreseeable future.
