lol its the same old style . . . repeat ad nauseam the same unsubstantiated stuff from the web.
Yeah, I have heard the same recycled stuff over and over again that it is sickening.

Everytime  Aristotle and Creation is brought up , someone will try and shove the "First Cause" postulate to your face without really telling us what the Greek philosophers meant by the First cause. That was not even an original thought of Aristotle,,,,,Plato had already posited this idea.

"First Cause" in itself is not an explanation for man's presence on earth. Every dogma, theory, doctrine, belief or hypothesis implies a "First Cause" . The differences lie in the identity of the first cause. Some believe it is fire, others think it is water. Plato was sure it was motion , same as Aristotle. Some scientists these days think it is collision (hence the big bang theory).

How someone can now come and say that Christianity borrowed from Aristotle befuddles me.

Thats a very interesting question.

How reliable is that wrist MRI scan?  The proponents claims that it is 99.1 percent accurate so going by that all of the boys should be within the age bracket.

However, I can't help looking at Chukwudi and Okoro and thinking "these MRI guys must be kidding"  undecided

Looking at those figures presented by manny4life the average cost of a seat for a oneway trip should be about 4-5k in naira($26).
We are waiting for U and Manny to come and start up an airline in Onitsha that will charge 4,000 naira. I go even patronize una.

PoliticsRe: Fg Approves Construction Of Anambra Airport by Uche2nna(m): 7:41pm On Nov 04, 2009
@ Manny

I was laughing at ur calculations cause, well, let me just say , it was funny LOL!!!

Lets take Lagos-Enugu axis for example, a round trip will cost U about 20,000 naira and thats economy class.  Compare that to a round trip using one of those luxurious buses, 5,000 naira will do the trick and thats u traveling first class  grin If u are road savvy and dont mind discomfort, U can do the trip for half of that. That difference alone have shot ur over head cost up by 25 percent. Factor in the cost of transporting the goods and U will end up selling the goods to ghosts when U get back to ur destination.

U see why I didnt want to go into all this cos now I am sounding as if I am anti-airport.

If they (FG or state govt) really want to help let them focus on the already existing roads instead of making bogus promises that we know will never see the light of  the day. Another avenue for some pot-bellied politician to make money.

True that there are certain goods you cannot transport by air but yes people would pay money to get their goods to their destaination fast and its not that expensive as you might think because they are consolidating several goods into one, less insurance and minimized risk. Moreover, they go by weight and distance in NM when freighting and if I'm correct, a normal flight from lagos to onitsha should be about 200NM, about 45 - 60 mins, operable by a 737 converted to a freighter can lift almost 187,000lbs of weight and that's with full fuel for a maximum range of almost 4,500NM (Lagos to Newyork). Like I said, airlines calulate by NM and the average cost per N/M is about $.0.13, and since each seats (200lbs) represent a piece of cargo * by a 200 NM trip would be, $0.13*1*200 = $26, calculate that in to (N), that should be what your cost is. This would be a lot cheaper than passenger because passengers are assigned 200lbs slots regardless of flown or not, but cargo you adjust based on demands and so on. Yes people who want to deliver bulk cargo more so on a flight can do it.
LOL!!!

Anyways, I wont go arguing with you before it seems that I am against the airport being built. But I must say this, ur calculations made my day. LOL!!!! grin

Bottom line is Airport or no Airport, we need good roads. Lets crawl first before we start thinking about running a marathon.

I am really cracking up about ur calculations!!!!! grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

True though but hey why would I want to wait a for days and then you not certain about the goods arrival rather than pay a few extra money and get my goods delivered to my destination same day, fast and easy less hassle. Well I agree with you though they still need to fix the roads.
There are certain goods that U wont even think about using Airplanes to transport.

Also, paying extra money to transport ur goods will not be helpful if it wipes out all ur profit at the end.

Even at present, the traders have the option of using the modern luxurious buses to transport their goods and that should arrive relatively earlier than using the 911 trucks but once again, it is expensive and they opt for the trucks. Now u are suggesting they use airplanes LOL grin

I am not in anyway against an airport, there are people who can afford it and it will be helpful, but they really should do something about those roads that actually accounts for 100 percent of the traffic as we speak.

When Roads Are Still Terribly Bad. . . Naija Is Too Funny sad
Building of airports is always a welcome development. However, the above statement struck a chord in me.

Saying that the roads are bad is an understatement. Its a nightmare traveling from Lagos to Onitsha (or vice versa) these days.

The volume of goods that traverse the Onitsha-Lagos axis is mind boggling , and U can build all the airports you want, the bulk of those goods will still be transported via land. Nowadays, a truck filled with goods from lagos takes about 2 to 3 days to get to Onitsha and thats if u are lucky.

Its ok to think about building an airport, but I hope that they are also sparing a thought for the conditions of the road which in my own opinion should be more of a priority now. Unless if all this hoopla about building an airport is a political ruse for the up coming elections undecided

U have a point there,

However, we also have evidence of diasporan(s) who came back to Nigeria, got into positions of power and became as corrupt and power drunk as any average Nigerian politician.

Pointing of fingers to one particular group will not help us one bit, we are all in this collective mess together (Diasporans and local).

Saying that PDP is the sole cause of our problems is like saying that politicians of other political parties are not corrupt and we know that is far from the truth.

 Give the other parties the same control that PDP has, we will still be singing the same tune.

We have a tendency to glamorise, promote and sustain corruption and this is not limited to the Government, we as a people have to take some of the blame too.

As far as I am concerned, that Adokiye man is a stupid, useless and unpatriotic man.

Where was he all this while? Or has he been in hibernation or coma for the last five months? I beleive this man is just looking for cheap publicity, he wants people to know him, thank God, that I dont know you, I would have stoned you to stupor. What arrant nonsense! EFCC should check his record, I am sure himself falsified his age, certificate and more. Mr. Enemy within.

Adokiye has been steadily watching these guys play, looking for their failure which will give him the opportunity to blame
the failures on Chukwudi, but God did not allow it happen dat way, he is just jealous, probably because the player he bribed the NFF to include is not there.
Yeah, I also find his timing to be a little odd and that alone portrays him as being kind of vindictive.

However, the big question remains,  is his utterances true? And if it is , then we havent learnt anything at all as a footballing nation.
Using over aged players to excel in youth tournaments has not helped us in the global picture of football.

harmeenut:
. Let us all stop deceiving ourselves, it's possible for the whites to present players with their true ages because by their physical nature, food & environment, they can look big than their ages. But that cannot be said of Black. If we are truly present team according to the real ages of the players, Africa and black generally will be playing last fiddle (not even second) in sport competition.
Stop saying that,,,,,,,are the Burkinababes not from the African continent?  angry  I saw their final group match,  they almost played the Costa Ricans off the stadium. The C. Ricans could barely keep up. Go see those Burkina players and tell me if those guys dont look like your average 16 yr old. They even have the youngest player of the tournament in their fold. He was said to be barely 15 and when I saw him, I didnt doubt it one bit. He even scored!!!!  grin
