Politics / City Mall, City Swank(with pics) by vwvw(m): 1:07pm On Nov 01, 2010 |
[img]http://arrestedworld.files./2010/11/01112010071.jpg[/img] Early this year i wanted to do this story badly hoping that the authorities exorcise themselves of the decrepit spirit of recidivism and clean up the mess sooner than domesday. Alas how true the saying, wonder not how quickly the pampered mongrel quickly returns to puke; the renaissance just will not happen,the squalid CITY MALL is here for a filthy stay. Now this is the hellish smelling sewer of eye popping city mall in the highbrow Onikan axis of Victoria Island, Lagos. Inside the building, label adorning prices of exotic goods swoons your senses in wonderment. Outside the sliding doors, wonderment is replicated in foul smelling odour-worthy incense for the devil. Workers dash past in flurry and fury.Woe betide the well wisher that ventures beyond a courteous good morning.Often times chit chats along the pavements are punctuated with grunts and clenched nostrils,fists and feet.The stench is simply unbelievable.The Lagos General Hospital mortuary in morbid envy could not possibly attain such smelling heights.[img]http://arrestedworld.files./2010/11/city-mall-drain1.jpg[/img] Ahead of me Colonel Harlan Sanders beckons at you with a wide grin.Once i obliged, stomping into KFC to grab fries and glare at fried chicken in buckets.The waiter forgot my order stalled me for half an hour and there was no restroom facility to release my anguish, thankfully the bosses thought it wise to do without a suggestion box. This state of the art facility is also shooting location for top Nigerian reality show ‘Moments with Mo’ and a movie cinema hall. So i take a lift to the gents my heart palpitating-i can see the headlines blinking-’JOURNALIST PEES ON SELF IN CITY MALL’. fortunately there was one of the floor, still not anywhere near the rehabilitated toilets at Pen cinema, Agege The glitzy shops, resplendent with jewels, ceramic vases and electronic gadgets on display behind showy glasses dull the senses for a moment but then it means harm than good when you adjust the rear focal lens. [img]http://arrestedworld.files./2010/11/30102010068.jpg[/img]Now you see what i mean this is the rear of city mall where you get to see the back story.Piles of rubbish and scores of wires hanging down makes this ‘hanging garden of babylon’ a spot on the 7 squalors of Lagos. Many people however say years of neglecting the erstwhile center of Government is now taking its toll. Rundown Government buildings now house destitutes, vermints and Ghosts.There’s the Ministry of Works, Nitel, too numerous to mention and lots more.Buildings rotting away and the government will not sell nor repair because of political exigencies. But then it is unthinkable that billions of naira spent in transforming this edifice, Private Property not Government would come to social and infrastructural disrepute http://arrestedworld./2010/11/01/not-this-city-mall/ |

Politics / Goodluck To Bar Electricity Nationwide by vwvw(m): 8:03am On Jul 01, 2010 |
there is gist around that president goodluck jonathan may bar electricity all over the country, following PHCN's poor showing in the last 50 years. he says it will bring the high and low on the same platform- no power for everyone since power for some people is cheating. he has also ordered the probe of all PHCN's account adding that he is embarrassed by international snide remarks about the poor electricity in the country. he was recently yabbed at the G8 summit-the super lager-eagles and PHCN caused him pseudo-brain hemorrhage sorry haemorrhoid. the PHCN ban could take effect immediately, afterall he is minister of power and we all pray he acts as madly as he has done with football-do something crazy when goodluck doesn't work |
Sports / Re: Jonathan Bans Nigeria From International Football For Two Years by vwvw(m): 7:48am On Jul 01, 2010 |
now the madness is complete. Goodluck has become like Mugabe and Abacha. I hope he bars the country from existence. for its poor showing in 50 years. no more politicians nada. by the way who is going to carryout the reforms-same rotten politicians and administrators. im currently covering the pension verification exercise in lagos and what a shame. a big shame.FIFA would bar Nigeria indefinitely-i cry in swahili. what minister of sports can explain this stupid interference. why doesn't he bar electricity supply for 2 years-everywhere blackout so we can start afresh--RUBBISH |

Sports / Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by vwvw(m): 7:55am On Jun 12, 2010 |
why fire amodu. Ive seen this before, throughout the qualifiers and the nations cup. same lineup boring eagles, boring matches. should have started with haruna and given the team a little spark. this lineup lacks speed. forget the midfield because undoubtedly Argentina could have the ball for 90 minutes. at the end its theirs for the taking. they'd pile on so much pressure even and after they score the goals. for this game we need someone who can hold the ball, caress and protect it for the formation to make sense. its going be nearly impossible to secure a draw |
