What if na because those drivers hear say na 1.2m dem pay them meanwhile the actual money low gan nai make them stop

izzou:


Yes, the drivers

Doc, one thing you should know is that Sudan is now a Jungle; Everybody trying to cheat and eat anybody

FG procured the service of 40 buses for $1.2 million. Apart from corruption, it is clear that those buses must have multiplied their fares by 50...Very expected for a country in crises

Now, only a stupid person would pay in full. If those drivers receive complete payment, they can decide not to deliver...Owo ti lor.

I am not there, but maybe they have stops where they have negotiated to receive payments as they go. That video shows they are no longer on Khartoum

That was why i said alert will come

This thing suppose be cash business and each bus go get person with the drivers cash on ground. This whole thing is part of general Nigerian incompetence sha (no be today e start, and no be APC start am), but we should do better. I'm sure the ministry of foreign affairs don't even have an evacuation procedure on ground for its citizens, na just to pack themselves go there then make it up along the way.

The evacuation should even be handled by military mainly and not civilians, won't be surprised if it has been a civilian heavy evcuation.

Ibime:


That's not a bad cost to evacuate thousands from war zone.

Hazard pay to bus companies plus payment to rebels not to shoot

afrodoc2:


I hope we won't have another case of missing children like Chibok.

When we were stranded in Calabar and being hunted by Unical cultists i know how we felt. These ones are in the middle of the desert thousands of km from home. Even the parents will not be able to sleep.

If you have travelled to the North, one of the ways Immigration officers question any suspected foreigner is to ask of his state of origin, and his local government.

Now there are over 6,000 people that a few officials neet to verify...How do you think 100 people will verify 6,000 without mistakes and being overwhelmed?

Everything is not about criticising

Or did you hear that they left Anambra and carried only Kano?

izzou:


Military from where??

afrodoc2:


Tropical rainfall is enough to wreck roads. It starts from using substandard materials and defective designing and then continues with zero maintenance culture.

In the areas of the developed world that suffer huge rainfall or snowfall it would seem to you that they are always constructing roads meanwhile most of it is just maintenance work before it starts showing obvious wear and tear. In Nigeria if the road does not have huge potholes that can swallow a sports car they will not think of doing any work on it.

izzou:


That one no concern the driver.

He stated his price and he will be paid

But what i am sure is that paying upfront leaves us at the mercy of the drivers.

E be like say una never get that kind experience here, talk more of a place in crises

Theflint1:
Nigerian military.

For what? People from Newcastle drive to Manchester to use Airport

The whole of South East France, South West Germany and North West Switzerland use the same airport which they jointly funded

Governor just dey find way to embezzle money and leave monumental cost on future generations, after you will blame the West. How many people from Ebonyi dey fly plane on a normal day to justify airport?

liveLongNprospa:


Guy.. I'm sorry I don't trust FG.
There is nothing these guys do not use to steal money and this recent event further strengthens my stance.


The actual money paid could be so low that the drivers heard 1.2m and probably flipped.

larride:
I am here to enjoy violence not to partake in it in any form nor shall I let peace take hold.

All must burn.

liveLongNprospa:


Na it concerns the driver very well.
If you tell me you'll pay me 300k after plenty negotiation and then you announce you are paying me 1m..best believe I'm renegotiating on the spot my guy

Theflint1:
The cost isn't the issue, the drivers would most likely want to be paid in USD, say $10,000 per bus for 40 buses, then there's other logistics to settle too, like moving the evacuators there and all...if person sueeze comot that 1.2m e fit no pass 300K

izzou:


So Nigeria should fly soldiers from here to Egypt, then transport them by road to Sudan?

E be like say you want make RSF open fire on innocent civilians.

Or you are not aware that there is serious fighting there?

izzou:


I understand, and i can't imagine myself there

The Khartoum airport that was damaged made it worse.

If they allowed planes to land there, it would have been easier

izzou:


It seems you are new to trading

Your price is your price oh. If you like here 1 billion per passenger, na wetin you talk be your own

You funny, my guy

$10,000 for 52 passengers? A journey of up to 2000km by road, in a war torn country?

You really dey funny

American military is always involved in evacuation efforts and if it requires the military to dress as civilians, they can do that...evacuation of citizens from a country in war isn't a job for civilians but for the military.

It's all about leverage in trading.
How important is it to you? What are the stakes?
Information can be costly especially when released in the wrong time

izzou:


USA lifted their citizens before Khartoum collapsed

How can you transport soldiers by road in this situation?

Any checkpoint they see our military would be instant fire.

For warzone, E no sure say dem no go pay rebels to allow them ease of passage sef. It only takes 5 rebel warriors armed with arms to blow one of those buses. In addition to you will still get armed support for them

Also in these times no be every bus fit go enter warzone, A place wey normally na 100 buses per day maybe now na 20 per day. Imagine the rate the 20 go don increase price

The bus operators fit quote you $10K per person because na dsperate times

seankafor:
he has built it, should he go on and demolish it

Theflint1:
Like I said already, the military can disguise as civilians...evacuation of citizens from countries in war is not a job for civilians, however we want to get military personnel in there to conduct the evacuation, that's the way to go, and the ideal way to go.

You funny, my guy

raumdeuter:


E be like say you wan go provoke the rebels

Theflint1, you think the rebels are not thinking that they might use the opportunity to bring in military men and supplies to fight against them?

This is real war not movie wey dem go smuggle soldiers dressed as civilians to puncture the war from inside

This case na to beg and negotiate at the terms favourable to the rebels otherwise you will just see those Americans killed and dragged all over the streets like it happened in Somalia

Leave am

E think say na 24, or Designated Survivor be this.

Just wearing a military uniform sef puts your life at risk
