Sir agreed .

You ruined our economy

The effects of not saving for the rainy days is part of what we are feeling today.

You had an opportunity to turn things around you did not

Prosperity will judge you and your hailing hailers

Noblesoul123:
The key factor in the MMM saga was greed.

Mavrodi & co seized advantage of the existing desire by many people to get rich without working for it.

I hope everyone will learn from this.

No pain; no gain.

They don't look Fulani to me. More like Kaduna indigenes preparing for defence. Its more like d police bringing in innocent people. Today they caught 3 n now these. Is it dat they have been sleeping in duty n decided a cover up can salvage d situation since d pressure is too much Cuz I know d police r fond of accusing innocent citizens rather than take d bull by d horn. I only pray they r not d victim if not kudos to d police

Ah, you just reminded me of how my neighbour's last relationship ended. The guy lived in Ikota area of Lekki, while the babe he was toasting lived at Igando. The babe was a part-time Ph.d student at LASU who was also working at one of the airlines in Ikeja. Fine, tall, spotless combination of brains and beauty. After 3 weeks of toasting, he had to reassess his options.

The distance and traffic killed their budding romance, as he used to spend 4 to 5 hours from Orile to LASU gate, each time he had to go and see the babe. The stress he encountered during the hold up on that stretch, plus the fact that he was nearly robbed at Mile 2 on different occasions, rebooted his mind. He settled for another less beautiful and less educated chic, at Ajah.

Only God knows where that pretty 1st girl is, now. Man proposes, but traffic disposes....

I am not sorry I don’t live on the Island. And I don’t live on the mainland either. I live around the ‘extra lands’ off the mainland and when I tell people my location, toasters to be specific, they be like, “Too bad!”
As if Ambode is not the governor in my area.

Boys are willing to do London/Lagos long distance relationships but cannot do common Ikorodu/Ikoyi relationships.
No boy even wants to do Uber for you from your location to a first date meeting on the Island because the cost of a trip is God is Good Motors rate from Lagos to Abia.
You mention where you are living to a prospective toaster and the next thing he says is, “The last time I visited there was 2002.”
Oga who asked you?

A ‘toaster’ would mention an event/party that took place on the island and when you express your disappointment on why you were not invited, he’ll say, “But you are in town now.”
Excuse me?

The worst of them are the ones that offer free lifts. You’d be minding your business at a bus stop on the Island, patiently waiting for an Oshodi bound vehicle so you can take a BRT from Oshodi to Agbado Ijaiye and later the 20 minutes okada ride from the bus stop at Agbado Ijaiye to your own Lagos when a guy in a camry would pull up and say, “Can I give you a ride home?”
OGA DO YOU KNOW WHERE MY HOUSE IS?

Sometimes I mention where I am headed and the manner they zoom off is disrespectful.
The time I was stupid enough to accept to be dropped along the way, I regretted. For some of the spoilt Island boys, along the way means the second curve along third mainland bridge or sometimes an unnamed location where you’d wait for a vehicle for one hour and have no choice but to start returning to the bus stop because your routes have been messed up.

Even people living in lbeju Lekki and Ajah outskirts are joining to discriminate mainland people with talks of, “The only thing that takes me to the mainland is the airport”
Ko serious.
At least I don’t have to cross the Atlantic Ocean, queue at four toll gates and pass eight roundabouts before I get home.

You know the most annoying part? The husband materials in these bush areas have refused to date their own. All their girlfriends are based on the Island. Issokay.

Appswheel:
Hi Vislabraye, I appreciate your comprehension of the article and intelligent questions. The author agrees that Nigerians are going through alot of hardship. Its position is that the protest is not well planned to achieve any meaningful result. As such, More well meaning Nigerians should come together to put together a worthwhile protest. In hindsight, It also offers advise to intending protesters.

7 WAY TEST FOR 2BABA & FRIENDS PLANNED PROTEST
2Baba, the African Queen Crooner and one of Nigerians most successful artiste has announced a nationwide protest slated for February 6, 2017 tagged #IStandWithNigeria. The march is aimed at calling the attention of President Buhari’s change government to the untold sufferings plaguing the Citizenry. The planned protest is gaining traction with Hip hop artiste Olamide, Burna boy, TerryG and others throwing their weights behind the protest. Harmless and timely as this action seem, few questions needs to be answered before joining the march.

1.IS THERE A BETTER WAY TO PROTEST?
In a press statement released by 2Baba, he headlined the reasons for the protest under the following subjects: Education, Health, Transparency, Cost of Government, Power, Unemployment etc. These are fundamental problems plaguing the Nigerian nation. Would the protest solve these problems? An insightful and honest answer is a resounding “No”. Would the protesters present problem statements and march them with proposed solutions? Will government officials and agencies be called out to give explanations on specific issues; why certain problems exist, persist and not remedied? Is there a plan for a post protest pressure group using Information Technology as its vehicle?

Will 2Baba get artistes to boycott government organized events and influence them to sing meaningful and thoughtful songs reflecting the times and calling on all Nigerians – leaders and followers alike to contribute to the future of our nation by shunning corruption and patronizing made in Nigeria products?

2.IS THIS A WAY TO SURVIVE THE RECESSION?
Rumours have it that the planned rally has the blessings of top politicians of the All Progressive Congress (APC) Party extraction who have parted ways with the Buhari led government. If true, this may just be another ploy for our artiste to survive the economic recession.

With exception to 2Baba, which of Burna Boy, Olamide, TerryG and others have called government attention to the plight of the people through their songs? Will the protest not evolve into a musical show of sort; an avenue for musicians to shake off boredom and depression cast by the biting recession?

3.DO THE ORGANISERS HAVE THE BLESSINGS OF GOVERNOR AMBODE?
By law, Nigerians have the right to organize peaceful protests without obtaining police permit. However, it is advised that they seek and have the consent of the Governor, who is vested with the power to issue licence or permit for holding public meetings, assemblies and processions. Do 2Baba & Friends have the blessings of Governor Ambode and other state governors in states where the protests are scheduled to hold?

4.ARE YOU PREPARED TO DIE FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN?
The Nigerian constitution recognizes the right of Nigerians to hold and stage peaceful protests. We must not be in a hurry to forget the Nigeria Police and authorities’ tact at turning a peaceful protest on its head through pronouncements of civil disobedience, unlawful arrest, trial and detention and killings attributed to accidental discharge. Don’t forget that a hungry Nigerian police is a wounded lion on the prowl. Should a stray bullet come in your direction, are you willing to take it in for patriotism sake?

To cite few examples among thousands; on 13th November 2016, ten people were reportedly killed by the Nigerian Police during clashes with members of the shiite Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), during a religious procession near the northern city of Kano.

“On 22nd November [2016], a coalition of civil society organisations protested to demonstrate their dissatisfaction with the retrospective approval of 100 million Naira (about 300,000 dollars) worth of housing pensions for former Edo State governor Adams Oshiomhole and his deputy Dr. Pius Odubu. Violence occurred when a group of pro-government supporters attacked the demonstration, leading to the injury of 10 protesters” – monitor.civilus.org

5.IS THERE A PROTESTERS REGISTER?
If www.ekocitymagazine.com is to organize a protest against the present government, we would open an online portal for intending protesters to submit their names, qualification, address and their reason(s) for supporting the protest. The register will serve to ensure the safety of all intending protesters and to ensure that only people with good intentions turn out for the event. It will also serve as a trap for thugs who intend to cash on the protest for evil and negative intents.

6.ARE YOU PREPARED TO ENGAGE THUGS?
During the 2012 Oil price hike protest under the Goodluck Jonathan administration, a protester shared his experience at Freedom Park where he was harassed by street urchins; he was saved by the ten thousand Naira notes he had on him. He flung it in the air to distract them and fled when they scrambled to pick the notes. In this biting recession, are you willing to part with your hard earned money and risk being mishandled by thugs and criminals?

Olamide, Burna boy and TerryG who are strong supporters of the protest have a history of attracting thugs to their concerts; the planned protest will not be different. In December 2016, at a concert held at the Eagles Club, Adeniran Ogunsanya Lagos, Olamide’s performance was underlined with broken bottles and flying fists. His presence will no doubt attract ‘street boys’.

7.WHAT ARE YOU CONTRIBUTING TO NIGERIA’S DEVELOPMENT?
Charity begins at home. Before you march bearing placards, chanting songs and pointing accusing fingers, search your conscience and answer these questions, “Do I contribute to a prosperous Nigeria? Do I consciously go out of my way to patronize made in Nigeria goods and services? Do I make a living by being transparent, accountable and hardworking? If you answered Yes to these questions keep up the good and commendable work, otherwise, go and make penance, turn a new leaf and become a “born again” citizen.

A protest of this magnitude and intention will better be staged at Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria. You will agree that the Lagos State government under the leadership of Governor Ambode is delivering the dividends of Democracy. Lagos State is not the best location to stage a protest against a non-performing government given that the action will hamper economic activities.

As concerned Nigerians who are at the receiving end of President Buhari’s ineffectual leadership, we would only support a well-planned protest, one bearing problem statements, proffering realistic and actionable solutions and creates a follow up pressure group employing ICT solutions.

We are not convinced that 2Baba and friends have this level of organization in place.

Did 2Baba and friends pass the 7 Way test? We look forward to reading your comments and thoughts.

akakurukukaku:
Why una nor protest when una brother GEJ de destroy Nigeria.
The truth is that no sensible Nigerian would take u guys seriously.

PHILipu1:
.

My simple point here is that your clueless drunkard hero put us in all this mess with his team of looters and criminals.
Buhari can not fix Nigeria over night.
It's a process and you should thank God that we have Buhari at a time like this,i hope you see what is happening in Venezuela?
If It was during Buhari era that we were selling crude oil as high as $140 and we could produce more than 2million barrel per day,Buhari would have turn Nigeria to another London.
#Facts

verygudbadguy:
Even though i disagree with President Buhari on some of his economic policies, i would not support former President Goodluck Jonathan for another term.

Goodluck has good heart but too meek for Nigeria. We seriously need strong hands like Buhari's plus good heart like Jonathan's for Nigeria to grow.

Bolustic:
Foolishness is when youths who have never stepped out of Nigeria march for Trump who has never heard of anything IPOB.

Why waste your life because of a dead cause?

To the people who will quote me wrongly, when last did you protest on behalf of the shot IPOB Yoots?

rukytaiga:
she should have told us the productive things to do with the time now...the country beta nai she travel out with her family...rubbish.

sigiyaya:
They will be claiming to love each other as muslims,(Muslim Brotherhood) and have many rich Arab countries, while the likes of Brunei, United Arab Emirates,Oman,Kuwait,Qatar,Saudi Arabia,Bahrain,Malaysia etc are busy wasting money, the likes of Libya, Syria even the Northern part of Nigeria are busy killing each other, dying and running to christian United States and European countries as Refugee and their beloved rich Muslim brothers are busy lavishing money. The amagiri in Borno and kano state are ever ready to kill people when ever they hear that a tattoo of one Muhammad was drew in France or any other place in the world, What a pity....

ZUBY77:
Half University graduates in Nigeria and from Nigerian universities are blockheads.
A secondary school level graduate from China is way smarter than them from all angle
They are not entirely to be blamed, the education system has not improved a bit since the Northern military rogues took over Nigeria.
It's has been strike upon strike since then.
They build new schools everyday while abandoning the old ones.

The graduates show certificates that tell people they finished from so so school, what they actually learnt from the school never really mattered to them.

My younger sister, a graduate took my mother's money to do MMM. How she could not see the red flag amazes me still.
This is something an illiterate trader from Onitsha told me he never invested his one naira on, because he simply didn't see how a system that doubles your money without doing anything could last long.

freeze001:
While I sympathise with their unfortunate situation, the ignorance of this poster will not go unaddressed! Who told d individual that any school girl was kidnapped? Has he not understood that it is d politics he and his northern leaders played to show GEJ in bad light? The evil that men have done n still do will continue to live with them.

DuchessDee:
Abi nah
I no like any of them

emi14:
They are as dormant as Osubanjo. C.A.N should speak up. We need radicals in that leadership. They should be more of pressure group. Apc is determined to Islamise Nigeria. CAN is the mouthpiece of christians. They should act as one.

DuchessDee:
Only their lovers can tell

emi14:
The leadership of CAN is naive currently. Archbishop Anthony Okogie marched one and one with pure dictators of Buhari/Idagbon, Ibrahim Babangida and honorable tyrant like Gen. Sani Abacha. You cannot compare the voices of experienced academic giants like Okogie and John Onaiyekan among other learned catholic leaders to what is happening to bastardised CAN leadership now. The results of two years school of theology is on display.
Some may callect bribes to burst their personal owned enterprise.

KidsNEXTdoor:
Those nurudeens and komorus have sold their soul to their Fulani masters... Even if u conduct another election today... They will still vote for Buhari with an empty stomach

I met one recently .. He told me why things are hard is because there is no more free money... Buhari has stopped all the lope holes
I now asked him... What is Buhari using the money for and which project has he completed...
He said... Em em em.. Buhari is working in London

TrueSenator:
Keep waiting for his certificate while he R.I.P.......(it means Rest In Peace ohhhhh ) God Bless PMB and I wish him quick recovery and return to work.

Haters please stop wishing anyone bad things

A group of men stole a Toyota Camry from VGC yesterday evening but before they could escape with the vehicle, an alarm was raised by the owner. Unfortunately for the three men, they were apprehended after a long chase after they smashed the car at the VGC exit roundabout. See photos below
