Barcanista = whynottruth
Who na wan fool ?

2sex:
sorry... But Barcanista is whynotruth. Check his post and you will see the relationship.

Obiagelli:
Eve of election isn't election day, BTW many were arrested in their home.

Obiagelli:
Are saying those people were not arrested?

Truckpusher:
I personally feel that everything that is happening now is for future references ,trust me nothing goes for nothing and every action that would follow would be justified and this is where I stand.

I would rather wait for my adversaries to show their evil nature before passing a severe judgement on them,than be labelled as the trouble maker.

In dealing with the attitude of the North one needs tact and facts supporting whatever position that would be adopted in the future and it would be glaring to all and sundry who is the real trouble maker here.

Obiagelli:
I hear you, multiple registration on party form was their evidence.

Arresting opposition figures on the eve of elections in ekiti and osun including lai Mohammed.
so much for tolerance

Obiagelli:
I don't think Buhari has ever insulted gej, Infact it was the other way around during campaign. The pdp is a conservative party hence the sense of maturity but maturity never means good governance.

BTW how can you hate improved electricity?

Truckpusher:
I got your drift bro but again we must start from somewhere - At least Jonathan did and people had a sigh of relief when he left without instigating any form of violence and that is a part to be toed,maintain and strengthen by the electorates.

Obiagelli:
Raiding the opposition offices with the DSS and keeping staffs including pregnant woman lock up over the weekend isn't tolerance.
Laying seige on the national assembly isn't either.

Truckpusher:
The highlighted is the bedrock of every democracy and Nigerians need to start consolidating and strengthen on it.

Obiagelli:
4yrs will tell, the ability of nigerians to constantly change bad government is my joy.

Obiagelli:
I noticed that too.

aresa:
There is no documented reference beyond 11.90 km.

aresa:
1. The fact that you think paying for 30 years out of your pocket for what should be like the rest of Nigeria makes zero sense, it's foolish and irresponsible and I see no justification for it apart from you people's usual tribal fixations.

2. There is zero value in overpaying many times over for what should be free to start with in the first place. You must have your own personal and warped interpretation for the word value...

aresa:
It is in the best interest of the people of SE and Nigerians for the present admin to cancel the project and re award the contract and to be funded by the FG instead of what GEJ saddled the people of that region with which is a tolled bridged that you you and tour people are going to pay for out of your pocket for 30 years.

A bridge that's funded by the FG/People of Nigeria which you and the people of that region won't have to pay for out of their pocket for 30 years or the present arrangement making you and your children pay for your own bridge.


It just beats me why you think you as the only people saddled with the only toll bridge in Nigeria that you and your children have to pay for while the rest of the country enjoy free roads, bridges and infrastructures is a good thing.


You people are so deep into tribalism and pre occupied with hatred to see and do what's best for yourselves.
What a sad shame..

Mynd44:
Lmaoooo....

Your lies are not working here.

The Former minister for works, Mr. Mike Onolemenen at the ground breaking ceremony in front of President Jonathan said

"The Second Niger Bridge, he explained, was 1,590 metres long and forms part of the 11.90 km length project which construction cost was put at N117, 860, 700, 741. 82 vat inclusive"
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/03/last-jonathan-kicks-construction-2nd-niger-bridge/

And you are here saying something else. Please where will the remaining length come from? Note that I have also posted a map showing you the intended route of the bridge.

But keep denying and lying it is what you do best

Mynd44:
“The Project was initially estimated to cost N108 billion, excluding duties and Value Added Tax, but if duties and VAT are included, the Project cost is N117.9 billion,”
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/08/n435-4m-spent-on-second-niger-bridge-nsia/

Please stop lying. The bridge will cost 117 billion, the price was never beaten down or you want to cut out the charges for duties and Tax? What is it with you people and lying?

Abagworo:
Obasanjo awarded that bridge in 2007 but nothing came of it till 2010 when Jonathan re-awarded same bridge but 6 years later nothing still came off Jonathan's efforts. I believe Jonathan like his predecessors played politics with the bridge hence it being at starting stage in 2015.

I believe Buhari is a sincere leader and will build that bridge in all sincerity or cancel it in all sincerity.

Mynd44:
Does that justify a differential of 88billion?

Mynd44:
Everything I have written from a cost of 117 billion to the length of 11.8km was said by the former minister for works, Mr. Mike Onolemene at the ground breaking un the presence of President Jonathan.

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/03/last-jonathan-kicks-construction-2nd-niger-bridge/

Please try another angle

asha80:
from the schematics I saw somewhere before the bridge is supposed to burst out at somewhere near ozubulu along owerri Onitsha express and then continue to meet Enugu pnitsha express at a point I cannot remember now

Mynd44:
Stop being funny as usual Attached are the official sketches of the Bridge and approaching road.

You want me to believe it totals 44km, you will do more than the worlds of a wrong article when even the minister for roads had said that it will be 11.9km

Pictures credit: http://www.blackborderbuild.com/road-news/2nd-niger-bridge-renderings-update-part-1-coverage

Mynd44:
I love to talk about those factors. If the Lekki bridge cost 29 Billion, are you trying to tell me that an additional 88 billion will be used to cover water depth differential, construction of a 11km road, length and width(?) size and materials?

Perhaps we should also note that Labor will be cheaper in that location so it wont be a factor.

Continue

asha80:
something does not sound right here though..nkwelle ezunaka is oyi local govt..owerri Onitsha express does not cut through there unless they are talking about Onitsha Enugu express

Mynd44:
What we should be worried about is that the Lekki-Ikoyi bridge at 1,356 meters cost 29 billion (an allegedly inflated price) yet we are using 117(?) billion to build one that is 1,590 meters plus access road of 11km.

Mynd44:
The bridge is going to be 1,590 meters long. The connecting road is going to take the remaining.
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/03/last-jonathan-kicks-construction-2nd-niger-bridge/

There is also dispute over the total length of the connecting road as the article I posted says it will be about 11.9km long.

How can it be 42Km? How long is the width of the Niger?

IsraeliAIRFORCE:
Though I am not denying that certain degree of corrupt practices were committed by individuals who served directly or indirectly under Jonathan's administration but I hate false accusations, even the court of law (justice) prefers acquitting criminals to condemning an innocent citizen.

As an Engineer, I am in love with details and specifics, I hate application of guess work (in practicals and real businesses) among my subordinates and employees alike hence I wouldn't commit myself to half truth and falsification of facts. The disadvantages outweigh any temporal gains it offers.

The government should stop bringing allegations before the court of public opinion without thorough investigations and concrete evidence.

MrMcJay:
Adesina's candidacy was the first diplomatic masterstroke pulled by the new PMB government.

Here is Adesina thanking PMB

Meanwhile, Buhari's body language has become a very important course that GEJ is studying o! Ignore it at your peril.

JuanDeDios:
How? Can you cite specifics?
