I have a question, why didn't they build another lane and then start using it before closing the other one for repairs?

saintneo:
Waiting for Chevron, Shell, Total, etc.

NgreadNews:
bro coming to disclose this issue on nairaland won't solve anything. Why worry when you can pray We know the solution but laziness is just the issue. Bikonu pray to God and that's it. If u ain't born again then do so asap. The good thing about being born again and having the holyspirit is that he comforts you always and the thought of being suicidal will be completely eradicated from your thinking. Fact be told, the issue you have is not ordinary so just pray to God simple. Read col 1:13, psalm 37:25 and prov 3:5.

SIRNIMS:
3JRXW66H8DIn this time of recession, I concede PMB has done much. However, I repeat there are many things PMB can do such as:
1. Emulate the current Tanzanian President
2. Fight corruption more agressively from all fronts, with tangible results within the shortest time possible
3. Eradicate employment and appointment based on nepotism
4. Diversify the economy after blocking leakages, income realized should declared and channel into viable income generating ventures
5. Replace ghost workers with competent and highly intelligent workers from private sector
6. Be more proactive rather than reacting to negative criticisms before taking actions
7. Obey the rule of law or appear to be obeying the rule of law, while carefully circumventing the rule of law, in dealing ruthless with terrorists, economic saboteurs, insane looters like Dasuki, separatist like Kanu and other high mischief makers. He should separate their offences, release them and rearrest them
8. Act on any whistle blowing like what Jibrin is being offering
9. Get capable hands to help you deliver on campaign promises, regardless of their political affiliation or creed
8. Curtail and contain the absolutely, the influence of family members like Daura
9. We need lots of scapegoats that are corrupt
10. Change should be visible with ur immediate family and all the families of political office holders and civil servants
11. Ban on medical tourism for all political office holders. Rather those in need of special attention should make arrangements for the foreign doctor to come to Nigeria and treat them here in Nigeria
12. Public declaration of assets and earnings on the Internet, for all political office holders and appointees
13. Introduction of robust data base to host PVN property verification number and CVN company verification number
14. All government official and agencies should have KPI and regular performance evaluation by both internal and external bodies
15. There should be public agreed and executed performance contract for all government officials at management level in the civil service and public services
16. Godfatherism should be criminalized
17. Inflow of foreigners must be regulated strictly. Foreign expertraites are only to be considered if local vendors cannot perform
18. Open a corruption registry for those with corruption cases and convictions accessible via internet
19. The current Nigerian police should be proscribed and it's personal redeployed to civil defence. In it stead , a new and very fresh police is to be introduced without the influence of the current police as it is
20. There should be financial reward and special recognition for whistle blowers
21. Government to adopt the services of mistery shoppers to weed out bad eggs
22. The office of minister of justice should be separated from that of Attorney General of the Federation. This can be done by empowering the Solicitor General who shall act within the powers of AGF, but without any interference from the AGF, as the office shall report directly to the president and shall be appointed periodically by lawyers for a fixed term
23. All government agencies should be commercialized and made to be self sufficient and reliant through agressively generating sufficient revenue e.g. NTA, Immigration, AGIS, etc
22. Introduction of large scale mechanized agriculture
23. Reduce your media aide to just one person like a Farooq Kperogi and create a media unit to accommodate the existing crowd
24. Maintain only 2 presidential planes and one helicopter. Others should be commercialized
25. Invite Peter Obi to support your economic team.
26. All government officials must only use made in or assembled in Nigeria cars like PAN and Innoson Motors. Including PMB , whose own can be specially assembled to make room for it to be a bullet proof beast.
Singular Honesty of PMB may not work in Nigeria. He we need functional systems and not only credible personality. A functional system will make all of us very credible as a matter of survival.
Will add more later.

pure lie there @ no.11....gotya




In terms of presidential cars, there is change indeed. While GEJ
was riding an ordinary Mercedes-Benz S 350, Muhammadu
Buhari prefers much more expensive and luxury model –
Mercedes-Maybach S600.
While both Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari prefer
Mercedes-Benz, it seems that Jonathan’s taste in cars is much
more simplistic than Buhari’s.
Jonathan attended the ceremony of Buhari’s presidential
inauguration inside an ordinary Mercedes-Benz S 350.
Muhammadu Buhari enjoys rides in much more comfortable and
luxury Mercedes model after stepping into the presidential office
– Mercedes-Maybach S600.
This car represents the top notch in the latest sixth generation of
luxury Mercedes-Benz special class cars, labelled by company
as the W222, while GEJ’s car belongs to the previous fifth
generation –the W221.
Mercedes-Benz representatives describe Mercedes-Maybach
S600 as “an extra highlight in the luxury segment.”
Available luxury appointments over and above what was offered
in the W221 include a choice of massage type for each seat
occupant, while the W221 offered various intensities of a single
massage type.
Mercedes-Maybach S600 in base-line configuration costs
around $258,000 or N51.6 million, while the price for the new
Mercedes-Benz S 350 is only $135,000 or N27 million.
Upgraded versions of these cars for world leaders cost tens of
thousands dollars more than their base-line configuration, but
include the capability to withstand small arms fire and explosive
devices, and a self-sealing fuel tank.

There have been huge scandals related to expensive car
purchases under Jonathan’s rule.
Members of a committee handpicked by President Goodluck
Jonathan to investigate the purchase of two BMW armored cars
at a whopping cost of $1.6 million were intensely pressured by
the former president to deliver a watery recommendation that
exonerates Aviation Minister, Stella Oduah.
The committee set up to probe the N255m bulletproof car
scandal in the aviation ministry has indicted the Minister, Ms.
Stella Oduah.

gurunlocker:
cut senators and Reps allowances, then we can talk

LaEvilIMiss:
50% Cut in what specifically, salaries or allowances.. allowances are mostly between 200% to 300% higher than the basic salary. even with the cut, the allowances remain the same. This is where the real change should happen.. are senators still walking home with N30 million per month?

15 Things President Buhari Is Doing To Cut down The Cost Of Governance And Reduce Wastage

1) Buhari and his vice took a paycut of 50% to symbolise their commitment to the cutting down on the cost of governance.

2) Buhari then directed the RMAFC to review and prune down the salary of all public office holder in the country. That review will only come into effect after the expiration of the tenure of the current office holders, as the constitution says RMAFC cannot review the salary to the disadvantage of public office holders the moment they get into office.

3) Buhari reduced the number of federal ministries from over 40 to just over 20. Buhari reduced the number of federal advisers by more than 50%.

4) Buhari has limited the number of his entourage on foreign trips to essential personnels only.
4b) Buhari implemented the TSA to plug leakages in every institution of government.

5) Buhari has used the BVN to fish out over 40,000 ghost workers, thereby saving billions of naira of monthly salary for Nigeria.

6) Buhari removed the fraudulent subsidy, thereby saving government trillions of naira of ANNUAL payment for a programme that was only oiling the pockets of the corrupt.

7) No Federal Minister in Buhari's cabinet can travel out of Abuja without Buhari's say-so, thereby cutting down on wasteful spending associated with aimless travels.

Buhari has restructured the NNPC into a profitable venture for the first time in ages, the waste and leakages associated with the corporation has been reduced drastically.

9) Before Buhari appointed his Ministers, he spent months plugging leakages in the Federal Civil Service and Revenue Generating Agencies, resulting in Nigeria having more revenue to fund the budget from the non-oil sector than the oil-sector, for the first time since oil was discovered in Nigeria. Before Buhari took over, the oil sector contributed to 85% of our national revenue.

10) And most recently, Buhari has ordered the sale of 2 presidential jets from a fleet of ten, and directed that some of the jets be transferred to the Airforce for operational purposes thereby saving security agency the purchase cost of new jets.

11) President Buhari turned down moves to procure new cars for his office, preferring to use the ones left behind by his predecessor.

12) President Buhari has reduced the import of certain items we have comparative advantage in producing, in order to reduce the waste of foreign reserves.

13) Buhari also liberalised the petroleum sector, allowing importers to source for forex themselves, thereby reducing the waste of foreign reserves.

15) President Buhari's fight against corruption has also brought in a new discipline in the way public office holders handle money, they are now aware that they may be called to give account of their spending later in the future.

The list of what Buhari is doing to cut down waste and reduce the cost of governance is almost endless. No other president in Nigeria has shown a greater commitment to this course than Buhari. It's true that Nigeria's problem is enormous and it becomes difficult to feel the immediate impact of what he is doing, but to sit down there and call him names because you don't know what he's doing is not only uncharitable but disrespectful
