AnonPoet: The state-of-the-art flyover bridge at T-junction, Nike Lake Road, Enugu, comprising 105 meters bridge section, 590m ramps in cumulative length and four service lanes, being constructed by Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi’s administration, nears completion.
#EnuguStateIsInTheHandsOfGod #amokelouis
It is a flyover, I agree. However, what makes it state of the art?
Has radar and speed cameras for vehicle identification and issue of fines for overspeeding been installed? It hasn't even got something as basic as streetlights to illuminate it at night, or lane demarcation paints.
It is well o. I hope that the country will get to the point where basic, even rudimentary structures won't make us lose our heads in awe. We don too suffer here.
Bigredmachine: What has a leg chain got to do with the job, was the question... Now the answer is... What is the work of the leg chain on the leg...
I have come to a conclusion that many people don't have any tangible reasons as to why they do some certain things in this life, because u see other people do it, u too just want to do it...
If for example my friend who is a musician tints his hair, pierce his ear and draws tattoo on his body (just to promote his hustle) and because it looks good on him, then me an aspiring banker or a medical doctor should i now go and do same, just because it looks good... Anyway I digress
This empty skull headed girl, would see it as normal and something accepted by the general public...
Am happy she did not get the Job... Cause her appearance has already showed she's irresponsible...
Ok, here's one for you to answer.
What is the work of a neck chain on the neck? Or, What is the work of a wrist chain on the wrist?
If wearing chains on the neck and wrist is normal, what makes it abnormal if worn on the leg?
Oh, one more... What is the work of a waist chain on the waist?
MrBrownJay1: he fully well knew what he was getting into... and he is just an unfortunate casualty of war.
The feeling of patriotism that would make a civilian who is used to the good life (as a tv star in his country) decide not to escape with millions of others, and rather pick up arms and go into the tranches to defend his country.
This is what nationhood is built on. I salute his courage and his sacrifice. Let Naija face the same shii and I wouldn't even accept money to fight for it. I might even join forces with the invaders.
This is what the Nigerian army loves to do It gives them a lot of orgasm when they are told to face off against unarmed civilians.
There is rumor of planned protest, and one call to the army, they are already out, fully armed. If terrorists and armed bandits give them prior notice of an invasion, you will never see them get mobilized.

You always sound loony. Were you born that way, or your BMC stipends totally shut down your capacity to sound marginally intelligent?
qekng40: Quota system has its advantages and disadvantages.
Unless you can prove that northerners who this quota was created for, are biologically and physiological less intelligent than southerners... Unless you can prove that when God created everyone, he created northerners with lesser brain capacity than southerners, and ensured that they are incapable of learning and assimilating as fast or as good (or even better) than their southern counterparts.
Unless you can prove that southerners have more grey matter than northerners, then how do you explain any advantage that quota system has?
God created all of us same time, we faced the same evolution and adaptation to our physical environment. Then along the line, northerners began to adopt cultural and religious practices that made them abhor education (something the quran preached against) In other words, the north effectively made itself less competitive in a modern world. In other to balance things, it decided to impose a quota system. This system effectively crippled the south that could have lifted the country. How do you keep on rewarding indolence instead of merit, and say there is an advantage in that?
Nowhere in a modern world is such a things as quota system encouraged. You elevate your best brains. You bring your best foot forward, and not the other way around.
A quota system ensured that somebody like Buhari without an o'level certificate is ruling the country and is in charge of the best brains the country can produce. How is that a normal or good thing? Northerners, when encouraged, have shown a flair for intelligence and brilliance. But a quota system ensured they don't aspire to much greatness. A quota system ensured the less than mediocre performance from them gets rewarded
It will only take someone who was raised in Nigeria, and knows no better, to comment that quota system has any advantage.
SugarPapi: Ps, I understand a majority would think this is some made up story seeing as I opened the account today. I have been an unregistered member of this platform but the issue with this babe is getting to a head. I can't think, can't focus at work, can't do anything at all.
All I think of is her. I can't ask my friends for help, they're way too close to my wife and someone might spill. Pastor, etc are out of the equation. It's you guys I can turn to, so I need those who have been in my shoes to suggest ways to get over this girl.
Pss, I tried deleting her contacts, blocked her on IG, Whatsapp, etc. After 2 days, I unblocked her and when she asked, I feigned some phony excuse.
Yes, we need to begin some work there. Things like individual plot fencing (at least dwarf level) and for those who want to now, actual building construction. I agree that the entrance to the estate needs to be constructed at this time. This will give the land an identity and a landmark.
That's just a threat. If Russian army can fire this nuclear weapons to Ukraine it would cause mass disasters and something more than wars could break out.
Why not infiltrate kyiv with his army if they're strong to that extent?
Help us beg Putin make he no use that thing for Ukraine oh
Nvestor02: Abeg Gives us another news jare.... We are hiding our oil for oodua nation... You want us to be vomiting oil for Nigeria for no or little gain abi.
Just goes to show that those states in the south that has been financing the nation are fool!sh, aren't they? Ndi one Nigeria
spyder880: Hello my people, We need to move into this estate to start proper estate development works. This is the dry season, a season when it's easier to work on these terrains, as the rainy season will come with a very slippery surface and a lot of difficulty in moving materials and equipment into this project site.
I am therefore using this opportunity to solicit for your cooperation in our attempt to do a substantial work in this period. I have already started to clear the roads into the estate, I have paid for the uprooting of about 11 trees, which fell into the access roads.
I am making arrangements to start delivering sand, stone, cement and rods required for the Culvert which we will use to be crossing into these lands. By the time I open up the access roads, I will urge every land owner here to please move in and start developing their plots of land.
We need to take immediate possession of the whole of this estate, in view of recent happenings around this estate. The time to act is NOW.
I am also asking anyone who owns us a balance to get in touch with me for a proper evaluation of their investment, the costs of things has risen so much that it makes no sense trying to collect the balance of a money that was due in 2017 or 2018. There might also be a lot of other expenses to pay.
Please get in touch with me as we can start raising houses in this site, it has become more habitable in recent times. I also plan to raise a building here this coming month. Get in touch with me for your fence, for your BQ, for your complete building, we can move into this site together.
More pictures of work progress as we have moved into this site and started working.
For payment of lands and fences, I now use these account details; Account name: Chukwudebe Kenneth Chima Account number: 2086887726 Bank: UBA
Thanks.
Good morning chief. Nice to see that some activity is about to begin here. I want to ask, what are the recent happenings around there that you referred to? Is there any cause for concern?
About outstanding payments, you and I need to discuss the modalities. I have a plot fully paid, and another with part payment, but we couldn't conclude exactly how much remains to be paid.

Jakumo: Anyone following the trends in America's legal cannabis industry will have noted the fact that black Americans are blocked out of the business by laws created to weed out entrepreneurs who are not wealthy while favoring investors with deep pockets, who tend to be white. In California, potential cannabis companies are required to rent buildings even BEFORE they obtain permits from the government to operate, and that stumbling block alone locks out the majority of blacks seeking to ride the cannabis wave to create generational wealth.
Fortunately, there are black Americans who are financially stable enough to meet all the rigorous conditions imposed by the government on cannabis startups. The black owner of Gashouse brand cannabis started out as an illegal weed grower in Atlanta, who escaped the eagle eye of the law for decades while amassing enough wealth to join the gravy train in California. His company is now worth $40 million USD, and his story hints at the potential for Nigerians to profit massively once cannabis has been legalized in Nigeria.
When you created this topic and made HUGE claim that you believe GMB will be the one to legalize weed in Nigeria, I told you I was willing to bet that he won't do it. It would take a very visionary, non conservative leader with brass balls to take that enormous leap in Nigeria. GMB doesn't fit that bill now, does he?
dasparrow: This is so unfortunate. I never quite understood why Nigerians chose Ukraine as a place to go and study. Even if you don't want to study in Nigeria because of the incessant strikes, why not try universities in other African countries if you cannot afford to study in America, Canada, UK or Australia?
How can many of you feel safe going to all these Eastern European countries like Cyprus, Ukraine, Russia and the likes? This is what happens when some of you always behave as if every white country must be better than African countries. You see am now? I must japa, I must japa. If you want to japa, japa to places that are relatively safe for Blacks but you people never listen.
You think racism is a joke? Look at all the Blacks around the world that have lost their lives to white supremacists but you people think you are a special kind of Black people and nothing dey happen. By the time europeans finish with you people, you will understand that in this world, oyibos don't change. They are still the same way they were when they came to enslave and colonize your ancestors.
Good luck getting help from Ukrainians who themselves are fleeing and no send una message. You all are in my prayers.
This one too felt he needed to post something. Ignorance can be so appalling. If till the moment you posted this, you didn't understand why some Nigerians chose Ukraine to study, you could have used your internet to make a basic research.

Lagosfinder: Dealer's also should be arrested not just users
Do you know that these NDLEA rats have NO RIGHT to barge into people's home to search and make arrests, without warrants signed by a judge? I don't support whatever drug abuse these singers indulge in, but their crime (of you can even call it that) is insignificant compared with what these silly officials did.
I hope those boys get a good lawyer and sue for damages.
Can't you quote the victims and figures to buttress your point?
They may well have committed these crimes, but it behoves on you as repoters to provide details.
Thank you. No dates, no figures, no documents, no actual victim interviewed, just mere stories with a lot of speculations. Something that a non reporter can sit in his room and manufacture. We know these crimes happened, but this report added zero information to what is already known.
cryptofred: Okay guys, this is my first time posting on nairaland, pls disregard my blunders. I have this girlfriend of mine. I have dated for over 6 months. I'm already planning my future with her but I felt heartbroken today but never let her know my feelings as I played along with her. Pls kindly give a constructive advice on this... Later this morning when I was gisting with my gf in the house and she told me she would want a party with me (meaning I should invite a girl to the house and we have s*x together with her) and also if I'll be okay with her inviting a guy to have s*x with her same time, I found that very disgusting but still needed to play along just to know if she was joking but finally I found out she was damn serious about that.. I am thinking on what to do now pls guys with your experience and observation on the below screenshot of our chats pls what do you suggest I do? To end the relationship, I believe if your girlfriend can come up with this plans she can do worst when you're not there pls advice me as I am not feeling myself again ����
She opened up to you, and you condemned her. Not to her face, but to online folks.
You're being silly. She's not your wife. If you don't want it, say so and break up with her. Don't bring her issue here to condemn her.
Clothes of your people? Is it the ones UGM are killing day by day.
Isi-agu is just an adopted mode of dressing.
Suddenly he is now looking for isi-agu to wear?
Same isi-agu he kicked away in place of Fendi?
You sound so puerile. How did he "kick away" isi-agu clothes in place of Fendi? The Fendi outfit was what he was wearing when he got kidnapped in Kenya.
This isn't his first sessions at court, and we saw him wear isi-agu clothes in previous appearances before he jumped bail when DSS invaded his house.
The claim by DSS is that isi-agu "offended their operating procedures" How is this? But it didn't offend them when Buhari wore it while visiting Igboland, and when campaigning for elections.
GraciousGod190: A Church member invited the masses to his mother's burial ceremony last week Sunday, today when I got there I had to look for his own canopy..to my surprise they were just few persons sitting on his canopy with lots of chairs vacant.
and I came late o, we talking about after 2.48pm
His siblings canopies were filled to the brim, even his uncle's canopies were filled up that they were even coming to collect chairs from his own canopies to theirs for their respective guest. (this guy is the second to senior) I could see the embarrassment on this man face... he was just quiet and moody.
Food he cooked was surplus, nobody to give after sharing for we the church members that came..he had to even give us extra takeaway home because we didn't pass 10...still they are still enough leftovers.
While I was coming home one of the member from the church a very good friend of mine gave me a lift, then he told me Alex...you see why you need to dey mingle with people all around so that when you want to do things people will come.
You can't just put your full mind for people in church or family members...they disappoint you.
As you go people own, na so people go like come your own.
it really touched me, because I might even be worst than this guy, I hardly go out in the day....I don't have friends.. nobody to invite me to party... people in my street don't even know my name..This is really bad I need to change.
So introverts how do you handle stuffs when it comes to parties like this that you can't bypass? With all eyes watching...
For natural introverted people, this is not an issue In fact, real introverts would love to have weddings, funeral or other ceremonies with very few people in attendance.
Listen to the remix again, and see how ogbeni Sheeran's verse made Fireboy sound like a kindergarten. If it wasn't for that remix, the song will not cross northern border, much less enter obodo oyibo.

He then left My Room, I Was Shocked,I Didn't What To Do Or Say To Him
So in The Morning I went Out To Buy Something,When I Came Back He Locked The Back Door From inside,So I Couldn't Open It With My Keys.I Knocked And Told Him It Was Me,He Told Me To Go Back To Where I Come From And i Should Not Knock Ever Again.This Made Angry,He Didn't Even Give Me The Chance To Apologize,I Used Vex And Told Him Oya Let Me Carry My Property,He Said He Will Throw it For Me,That He Is Already Packing My Belongings,Few Minutes Later He Threw It for Me,I Was Down So He Threw It From Up...So I Left to Stay With a Friend in another State.
So My Question Now Is what My Father Did The Right thing?My Telling Me To Leave His House Cos I smoke, Am 19 Years Of Age, I Will be 20 This Year.I heard too Many ulcers and Helicobacter pylori Which Leads To Stomach Cancer,Yet He Told Me To Leave, He Was The Buying Medicine For Me But He Knows The Ulcer And Helicobacter pylori Hasn't Healed Final.He Knows I Don't Have Money To Fend For Myself Yet,i Always Go To His Shop To Help Him With His business.

My Main Question Are (Did My Dad Do The Right Thing By Telling Me To Leave,Should I Go Back To Stay With Him??Or should I Stay Here At My friend Place and start Hustling For Myself??
Please Moderators Should help Move to Front page,Am in Deep confusion Now.Thanks
Don't EVER come online to ask people to help you judge your father. You're still a kid, so you may not realize the import of this. I was once your age, and I thought I knew it all. Same way you are thinking now
The truth is, your father isn't totally happy with the way his life turned out, and you are gradually beginning to walk in his shoes. I am not going to say if he's wrong or right. But I can tell you that he is afraid your future may not turn out better than his did. He wants you to be a better man. What he did to you is called tough love. Suck it up and go back home. Then learn to be a better person. You can kick the smoking habit too.
spyder880: No, we were supposed to use roofing sheet, but our fear for fire and burglary made us consider decking the shops. My client wanted a roof, I advised that we make it a decking.
spyder880: It's a pity my workers killed this snake in the site before I could get there, I would have caught it with my hands and relocated it to a safe wild place
Well, the deed has been done. Not sure the size of the snake, but.....em... emmm.....why let the meat go to waste?
spyder880: The stage of work with the shops at Awka, we have done the lintels, cast it with concrete, laid blocks on the lintels and getting ready for the decking...........
Will there be another row of shops on top of the decking?
