Here in Lagos, the dead line is real.
Why do you yanmiris always sensationalize every good move from this government?
The government is mopping up arms and ammunition that has caused so much chaos, you are there feeling it's all about you.

Don't worry, the python would dance again.

Criminal minded lot.

Against the constitution that provides for legal ownership of arms abi? Smh

Suprnov3r:
Foolish post


In Nigeria, the agents of destruction are not usually trained badge carrying militia. Benue people wish they had more guns to face the herdsmen


Our police are not even trained enough to use them. Licenced gun owners are usually more educated and affluent than the average policeman so please keep your pro gun control sh:t to yourself

Really, foolish post, gun control only works in a society where nobody is above the law, not the current lawless shithole of a country that you are advocating this your "solution" for

Swissdist:
NIGERIANS took to Twitter to express displeasure as the Nigerian Police orders return of all licensed firearms to the police. Leaving the country men with no alternative of self defense.

If one has a license for a gun, why will that person be told to return it back when the person has done no wrong?

Na real wa for this country o

Their order no even get support from our constitution smh

TunezTV:
Popular Nigerian actor, Kenneth Okonkwo will be running in the next guber elections in Enugu. He took to his social space to make the announcement, sharing photos from his declaration meeting with the Governor and other political bigwigs in the state. He wrote on gram;

"Just declared my intention to contest for the Governorship candidate of APC in Enugu State. It was heart warming to receive the blessings of the immediate past Governor of Enugu State,His Excellency, Gov Sullivan Chime. To God be the glory"

APC in the South East? Dead on arrival lol

Way to go Rwanda!
Did you know Rwanda is one of the fastest growing economy in Africa?
It is neat, progressive and has a very low level of corruption.

Their capital - Kigali, one of the places I would love to visit, of course, through their airline, Rwandair.

This is a country on the rise, unfortunately, a sad incident such as the genocide had to make them recognize their potentials.

At least, they learned their lessons unlike a certain country who did not learn lessons of the civil war and continually repeating the mistakes especially under this bigoted government!

kennygee:
Hmmn.

Cleanliness is next to Godliness.

I'm of the opinion that churches should be sound proof.

I live opposite a C and S church that holds vigils every Friday, you can imagine what those of us who live around them go thru.

Was in Canada for five years, passed through a church once and did not know it was a church, the place was soundproof! Was interested in their service, and I could see brotherly love and biblical tenets of salvation and redemption emphasized there unlike most churches in Nigeria.

I don't suppose they would want to. Our people are very superstitious. They may liken the breaking of the wafer to the breaking of Christ.

Bikonu lol

SoulSearching:
The contruction company could be owned by the government. For example Akwa ibom Construction company, Akwa ibom Electric, Akwa Ibom transport corporation,etc. just like there's Tokyo Electric and Tokyo Construction. they would handle and maintain all construction projects .The workers would be working for the government.

That is fine but concessioned and constructed by foreigners in summary, nothing wrong in owning public assets in Nigeria, but management and construction of such assets must not be run by Nigerians if you want that asset to be sustainable and viable!

My 2 cents.

VivaDeAngelo:
OP to start with, are you a Communicant? I'm an Anglican, tbh I have never experienced anything like this before. The criteria to receive Holy Communion in Anglican Communion is that you must be a Communicant. Conversely, some local churches have a Holy Communion class before Sunday service which is a criterion for receiving Communion.

For me, whenever I leave my local church I don't go for communion to avoid what Op just experienced, it could be embarrassing.....buried your head in shame, everyon
e looking at you.

There is even a communion class now, bikonu lol

SoulSearching:
Why partner with China or anyone else ? Is that an achievement? why can't Nigerians build a seaport? Japanese build Japanese seaport,airports and roads, Chinese build Chinese seaports ,airports and roads. The US build American seaports,airports and roads. why always Africa partnering? Angola partners with Germany, Nigeria partners with China, Ghana partners with Sweden.
Like I said in a previous thread . The government should invest in skills acquisition such as : welding, carpentry,mechanized Agriculture, Building construction,plumbing,electrician, etc. continue using Nigerian construction companies until they master the technique- that could be in 5 or 10 years ,they'll eventually get it right . then roads would be the cheapest thing to build in Nigeria and all roads would be paved with sidewalks and traffic signs. pot holes could be fixed within a few days , bridge construction would be a walk in the park , 10 storey buildings would litter the entire place because Nigerians would have mastered the technique .

The Nigeria we know where almost everyone is fantastically corrupt? Lol.

What happened to the power sector assets that was given to Nigerians so as not to flout our useless local content laws? There is your answer.

What happened to the Telecom sector given to foreigners? Another answer.

If one wants a quality project done here as a politician, do not give them to Nigerians, we know how to cut corners and undermine projects! Let them shout local content, they did during Obasanjo's time for the Telecom privatization and we are all enjoying the services till today compared to comatose NITEL run by you guessed it - Nigerians!

My 2 cents.

Federal Ministry of Transportation / Akwa Ibom State Government


Ibom Deep Sea Port Project
(Solicited Proposal): The Ibom Deep Sea Port (IDSP) project involves the development of a Greenfield Deepsea Port and accompanying Free Trade Zone (FTZ) in Akwa Ibom State in the South-South geopolitical zone of Nigeria. The proposed Port and FTZ are part of the proposed Ibom Industrial City initiative that will be established on a 14,400 hectare site donated by the Akwa Ibom State Government (AKSG) at no value. The IDSP project is intended to become a major national and regional economic gateway that will provide additional container handling capacity for the country. In addition to containers, the IDSP is expected to handle petroleum products (export and import), crude oil and natural gas (export), vehicles (import) and bulk trade in natural resources (import and export).

It is planned to be the deepest port in the West African sub-region.



Ports Sector The project is currently in Procurement Phase. The Commission granted an Outline Business Case (OBC) Compliance Certificate to the project on October 8th, 2014. Thereafter, the Federal Executive Council (FEC) approved the OBC on 11th May, 2015. The Federal Ministry of Transportation and AKSG are required to proceed to the project procurement phase. PWC has been appointed as project managers


RfQ has been advertised



Next Step: Commencement of the competitive bidding process to select a preferred proponent (Concessionaire).



Procurement
http://www.icrc.gov.ng/projects/projects-under-conceptualization-development-and-procurement/

Qualification biding for a concessionaire and the selection - smart choice!

Hope they sha don't bring politics into it like they did the power sector privatization that has remained and will remain comatose until it is reversed and given to the right people, the Murtala Muhammed Airport concessioning and the Lagos-Ibadan expressway concessioning and reconstruction.

Left to me if Maersk Shipping Line Limited Netherlands was part of bidders, they should and must be the winners of the concession bidding and concessionaire. This is because they are highly qualified and have an highly valuable experience in port management.

My 2 cents.

OfficialAwol:
Same people.

They are just bunch of mosque brainwashed wooden heads.

They are taught that voting for Buhari means doing Allah's work despite the hardship they face, while hatred for Buhari is Haram. They have no thinking of theirs. They are thought for.

It's that bad.

We can all be happy, at least I am, the requirement of 25 per cent votes in at at least 24 states of the federation is still enshrined in the constitution!

In 2019, we might be seeing a funny situation of a majority winner not winning the election lol.

If PDP is wise, they better field Governor Ibrahim Dankwambo of Gombe State as their presidential candidate as I will gladly get my PVC and vote for him!

That is the only aboki, my vote can go for and I will have peace of mind.

My 2 cents.

Still displaying your father's manners, sad

You are a fool of the highest order, here is your trophy for being a total idiot!

bilulu:
Good morning all,

I work as a third party in an organization (firm A employed me to work for firm B). After the interview by firm A I was posted to firm B to work and I was told by firm A how much my salary is. I was happy that I have gotten a place to always resume at though the salary wasn't much.

After working in firm B for about 4 months I realised that firm A have been under paying me to the tune of almost 20,000 per month. I was short and my morale went down. I discussed it with one of the workers in firm A and he said I should wait for a perfect time to bring it to the notice of firm B.

It continued till I got that perfect time and it was about 8 months later. the moment I brought it to their notice (firm B) the manager was furious and called the manager of firm A that they must pay me back all my arrears and also with immediate effect place me on the salary on the contract.

To cut the story short, they placed me on the salary scale of the contract and they have also paid the arrears completely.

The moment I got the alert the manager of firm A called me to come over. I got their and he was telling me how the management have agreed that I should return part of the money with plenty stories. I told him I will get back to him if to return it or not.

I am so confused on what to do. If I decide to report to the manager of firm B they might decide to cancel the contract with firm A and everybody will go home. But the manager of firm B might decide to absorb me in the next contract because of the relationship I built with him overtime.

Still viewing from this other side of firm A, if I don't return the money they might decide to sack me and give nonexisting reasons though it will still jeopardise the contract.

Please I need your advice on what to do...... should I return the money or I should keep it and report to firm B on the plans of firm A?

Nairalanders pls help.....

Most recruitment agencies which is firm A in your case do that.

How else do you expect them to pay for their expenses and service of providing the job to you (instead of you job searching yourself, ask your fellow graduates how job searching alone can be, no be beans bro!)?

Sorry, I can be blunt, I can reasonably guess this job is a contract job, so what did you expect?

If you want a job where your salary is not reduced, watch out then instead for vacancies directly from the companies needing them not from recruitment agencies! This can be done by being a fixture on the job/vacancies section of this nairaland forum and other subscription job websites and even apps such as PushCV.

My 2 cents.

Your manners are like your father's.

And you were not thought home training, useless riff Raff!
Swerve off my mention, you would not like what is coming for you!
A word is enough for the wise!

micflo28:
How the world polarise Nigeria from war and adverse hunger and poverty still baffles me. The UN should declare Nigeria as facing a mild civil war and order for assistance. Two massive school kidnaps in a space of five years shows a failure of intelligence gathering and security as a whole. Then the unrestrained killings, reprisals and counters reprisals of Fulani militias and farmers.

Exactly, a genocide is brewing and we are clearly sitting on a keg of gunpowder! First sane comment on this thread, kudos bro!

Your manners seems like your dad right? Won't waste my time enlightening your kind.

You are very mannerless, like your father, grandfather and your great grandfather abi?

I repeat again, your brain needs examination and it is purely true!

Truth is bitter! Swerve off my mention, I can be very nasty in a jiffy and don't suffer fools like you gladly!

You have been warned!

usba:
Government should proactively Deploy to forestall reprisals

Without addressing injustice? What is this one saying, your brain needs to be examined!

eneojoedu:
with the way fulani's kill innocent people as if its their destiny to kill, I tend to have less pity on them when they are being killed too..how wish benue people can be like this mabilla people, fulani's would have been the ones preaching peace..

And the proliferation of hate speeches like this above is another hallmark of such lawless country ruled by a bigot! The stars are aligning for another Rwanda (Africa unfortunately never learns SMH).

Quite and really disturbing that comment got a lot of likes and shares sigh

stephenduru:
Below are remains of Fulani people brutally killed by Mambilla militia men while performing prayer (Magrib) at their home village of Yerimaru in Sarduna LGA of Taraba state.Some of the victims are Alhaji Aliyu,Jika Gidado,Ibrahim Ja'e Gagarau,

This is what happens in a lawless country ruled by a bigot - attacks and reprisal attacks without end!

MIKOLOWISKA:
the nutcases have told 5000 ppl to vacate dia village and army is supporting them
now whatchu go'n do
what happens when they come to your new home and chase you again

Well, if they are cowards which they are currently showing, this will continue to happen.

The day the Benue people learn to defend themselves yes, by buying guns in a lawless country unlike the US you defend which has laws and their citizens are important, is the day the nutcases you mentioned give them their freedom!

As you can see, I can only support proliferation of guns in a lawless society like Nigeria's or US in the 1800s, not the US in the 21st century!

An hallmark of developed societies like the US is a society where laws are followed and no one is above the law, so where in lawful societies that the US claims to be are proliferation of guns permitted?

Canada is a developed society, I was there for 5 years, gun shootings were rare then and even more rare now due to their strict gun control laws.

So, this fact makes a complete nonsense of your premise that gun control is needed for self defense! What happened to brass knuckles, pepper sprays and tasers (or stun guns) which are capable weapons in a self-defense situation?

The price of freedom is death - Malcolm X (Off Pressure (featuring Ice Cube) By Killer Mike)

Tired of arguing with a person wallowing in ignorance! We learn everyday but you refuse to learn!

Glad I schooled you, it is a task I am most grateful for

what happened to Kuli Kuli and Kilishi

Abi o and their extra fresh and highly delicious suya (especially the one those aboki guys do at Lokoja motor park, hmmm delicious) and their extra spicy and well fried chicken soya at the same Lokoja motor park. Finger licking delicious, hmmmmm lol .

Their tuwo masara (the one with corn mixed with white elubo) too is good and surprisingly cheaper than Garri and as filling.

Groundnut soup too make mad brain, especially if you put dried or stock fish in it!

MIKOLOWISKA:
ok
so we know our nutcases
whatchu go'n do 'bout 'em
in yankee you've at least got a fighting chance
here you just pray your number comes up
its like u've never seen where armed robbers tell your entire hood to leave money under bush so tey don't have to go house to house

At least one knows them and is better prepared for them. It is better to be aware of danger than having no awareness whatsoever of danger in form of a nutcase lurking around the corner!

MIKOLOWISKA:
so .....herdsmen are bolt cases or nigeria police are basket boxes abi

At least you know your potential nut case here unlike there where any one can be a nutcase biko!

Thank you sir.

He is a very honest person and I recommend doing business with him, you will not regret it.

Prompt replies and excellent customer service all the way till you get your package.
Also, good sense of humour too.

Will definitely be a repeat customer, eyeing the 20000mAh power bank (sense 6p) in August or December

MIKOLOWISKA:
yet the most coveted passport and visa ever

Not for me! Can not go to a country where one nut and basket case will just waste my life! Sorry!

EternalTruths:
Wrong.

The absence of guns breeds Hitlerites like Buhari the Tyrants.

More guns less tyranny.

Once the killer knows that the teacher also have guns to defend his students, he will think twice.

Even if one Teacher goes berserk, other teachers will put him down.

What is up about this guy's fallacious argument? SMH. Canada has one of the world's strictest gun control laws and school shootings are very rare there. Should be opposite with this your fallacious argument!

With the population of Lagos state and the human traffic from other major cities around it and nationwide , Lagos State is long overdue for a subway system.

The Federal Govt. can do it but you hardly see the major stake holders of Lagos State using their political influence to get it done.

Exactly, I am still surprised Lagos does not have a subway system till now SMH. Instead, we are hearing light rail lol. I guess Lagos is paying the price for being Tinubu estate lol.

Interested. You are no longer on WhatsApp sir. My WhatsApp contact by the way is 0810 276 3459.
