Any news on the election?

Mine didnt work out that way.
Things fizzle out between us and we broke out without much ado.

Bianca Ojukwu is now free to the highest bidder!!!!!!!

skfa1:

PLease guys joke apart, this hug is completely different from what u guys are saying.

Mrs Ibru held on to Fashola so tight,fear catch me!!!!!!
She grabbed Fashola with both hands-- and that her fine face.

shadrach77:

did anyone notice the feminine way in which segun gele was talking and his feminine mannerisms? the guy must be man-lover!

You are so wrong!!!!!!
That is just his way of expression.He is not gay
Infact he recently married to his long-term girlfriend.The first picture he displayed is that of his wife.
I know Segun since LASU days and we even became closer because of Junior Chamber International(Jaycees)
Everybody in LASU and UNILAG know him as Segcy.Check his facebook account and you will see his marriage pictures.

Tinubu's message is for T.A.Orji !!!!!!

Beaf:


Tinubu too would have shuddered at what he witnessed, cos his own day is coming too. The dude has been much less noisy in recent times, I wonder why?

You've not been reading dailies.Or you are probably too busy spreading propaganda for your confused and indolent GEJ
Tinubu recently(last week) delivered papers in two different institutes where he openly castigated the "turn by Turn" style of Govt and the need for the nation to decide how fuel subsidy issues will be handled.
You'll be better off spinning news on GEJ

The free rides will be later abused.
It is a very laudable project though to make Osun farmers gain more return for their farm produce.
I hope they will be appropriately taxed for Govt to recoup its investment.

FOR SURE !!!!

EzeUche0:


We lost millions of lives due to Awolowo's policies. The war did not kill Biafran, it was starvation!

Kwashiokor was created from starvation.
I recently met an old Delta-Igboman in Frankfurt Airport on his way to canada, we both had 3 hours to kill before the flight and as such we talked about Civil War.
he was a teenager during the war who previously worked for some white colonial masters.On their departure before the war,he was given a camera as present.
He took many pictures of his immediate family and dead bodies.
The man showed me some of those pictures and the abdurdity of it all still chokes me till today.
Small children with big potruding stomach with flies all around them.
Awwwwww
He explained the pains of witnessing the gang-rape of his eldest sister by Biafran troops

The long and insightful paper posted by DEnn? asnwered so many questions.
Anyone blaming Yorubas for the war should have his head checked.Anyway some people will always look for blames somewhere else.
Yorubas were on the fence till Ojukwu's real intentions got exposed.
Biafra will never get to Lagos without over-running the entire West.GOD FORBID.

Kobojunkie:

. . . . . If we can only get the thread back to discussing the issue at hand . .  Osun State . . . Free Train Rides . . .  Misunderstandings . .  . Truths vs Lies . . .  benefits vs potential failures . . . .


1. The people need to know that what the Government is doing here is something as simple as using their money to pay for them to take rides to Lagos.

What you term FREE here, or what they believe is FREE is actually their money (allocation/allowance/ their share of the national loot) being used to pay for them here. That is the same money that could go to developing agriculture within the state and maybe getting investors to actually show up in the state itself to do their business.  This is something people need to understand or else, we will remain in the loop described by Fela, suffering and smiling.

Not too long ago, some of you here jumped on the threads with news on Rocha giving away free this and that, and calling him out as a wasteful Governor. Why aren't you all applying the same logic here? I suspect somehow the rules change when ethnicity changes but that I will not even get into with the usual suspects on here.

Any who, I suspect that if the people are aware of this, they will certainly ask that the money be used elsewhere.

2. The people need to know that their Government has yet to build any actual rail stations, let alone actually purchased or installed any train carts.
There have been numerous reports linking this Governor to the Nigerian train system but not one of those reports has actually explained what the real link is. This is a man who has yet to deliver any trains, or actually deliver any terminals, yet there are some, even here on nairaland, who believe he has MAGICALLY delivered Osun State. If educated, people with internet access, can believe such, then there is serious work to be done educating the masses on what the situation really is.

We should be on the side of the masses, and not on the side of those elected by the masses.

3. The people need to know that the National Railway Service does not offer any State exclusive rights to terminals or rail tracks . . . NRC is a National Agency, and not necessarily a contractor that states can pay to run their own state rail system.
We have laws and acts in place to help people understand where the boundaries exist. Apparently, even those at OsunDefender, do not even understand this fact, as they, and many other news houses continue to publish ridiculous stories of how the Governor HAS(not intends) revolutionized train travel simply by signing some MOU that none of them to date has even made effort to seek out and publish for all to read.

Media houses that serve politicians only serve to deepen the Nigerian crisis . . . worsen the lives of the people, not make it better. That these people are riding happily to Lagos today does not mean that when they realize what has been going on, they will be happy even then.

4. People need to understand that going to Lagos to sell their goods is no guarantee that money will come back in the same way to Osun to develop the State.  

If the Farmers travel to Lagos to sell their produce, they are also likely to spend much of that money down in Lagos, and returning with a fraction of the money to Osun State. Matter of fact, the more I think of this Governor's plan, the more I find it is so much similar to what existed back in the days when the rail lines where still operational. Poor farmers, and traders would carry their wares to Lagos to sell, and then on their way back, would purchase goods for their use in their villages. What this meant was that the states got little benefit from this trade, and the reason why development remained low in states like Ondo, Oyo, Kwara, Ogun. Lagos on the other hand, benefitted a lot from the trade.

I also don't see how providing for cheaper transport non-processed foods to markets in Lagos would act as incentive for companies to establish their base in Osun state. Companies can simply buy the produce from Farmers when they get the products to Lagos, and process them right there in Lagos, rather than have to process said goods in Osun and then have to pay the higher costs to ship the goods to Lagos markets.

Living with a Lie is just that, living a lie.

The truth still remains that The train now carries farm produce from Osogbo to Lagos-free of charge for the farmers.
Aregbesola saw a big opportunity in reducing the Northern monopoly on farmproduce and jumped at it because of Osun state's proxy to Lagos state.
Farmers in Osun state will be the greatest gainers of this project because they will get more value for their products.
It will open a new line of employment for drivers who will drive from train stations to different destinations.
Employment will be generated which always have multiple effect on any economy.
The trains will also transport cement,iron rods,timber,etc which hitherto have been transported by trailers increasing the spate of deterioration of Osun roads.
Such heavy goods will reduce the stress on Osun roads,increase their lifespan while the cushion effect of the rail system lasts.
That this project is taking off at this time is a clear case of well-planned and prepared policy of Aregbesola.
Why cant Oyinlola concieve such glorious project even though the son of the Ife Monarch is NRC's MD?
The rail line might be FG's but the train stations,dedicated coaches and other infrastructures is being deveoped,acquired or financed by the state.

Prince Abubakar Audu is the best choice for Kogi state in 2012.
ACN all the way,

Beaf:

^
What is the long essay for?
Do you think words will change the perception the public has of ACN being a party of rascals? PDP doesn't make claims to sainthood or don wolf in sheeps clothing titles like "progressives," only to steal a shocking amount of billions in brazen ways.

What is even most strange is the way ACN has hypocritically carried on and labelled PDP with all sorts of names, when common sense tells the man on the street that all political parties are the same, which is why decamping is so rampant.
The PDP is superior because of its national outlook and non-ethnicity based spread; ACN, as you yourself have made abundantly clear, is a Yoruba party that must not be criticised by non-Yoruba's like me, in fact you even attempted to ban me from speaking Yoruba (a fine example of thuggish behaviour). That plus you short, red hot temper, lies and loose words makes you an easy candidate for thuggery (check your uncouth response to Nuzo for example).
You are thugs, just accept that it is the way you are viewed.

Rather than employ decorum, you lot go around abusing and maligning others and when I decide to swing the turret right round, you begin crying to mummy. I didn't start the caustic politics on NL (the thugs did), I'm simply reacting; its just that my reactions are too creative, sophisticated and intelligent for you to cope with; therefore, you erupt in anger, sulk, open ethnic bashing threads, make threats etc.

We can be civil if you want, but its up to you. If instead, you up the ante, I will only start at the point where your limits are.

You stopped making sense since you keep supporting GEJ who couldnt show anything for the over $800 Billion revenue he recieved.
Aregbe has a right to protest against the direct atack on his office.
Unlike "siddon look" GEJ!!!

afam4eva:

I think Theoddore Orji and Alao Akala should be used as a benchmark for measuring mediocrity in government. They're the worst of the lot. Folowed by Mbadniju of Anambra, Uduaghan of Delta, and Rauf Aregbeshola of Osun state  . These people have a made a difference in Nigeria, negatively.

Osun state is a benchmark for emerging sustainable state.
The state is slowly being rebuilt from the ashes of the Oyinlola years who spent N18Billion loan in building non-existing six stadia,guest Houses and  Golf Course.
The huge debt with its accumulated interest in now close to N25Billion even though the projects those funds were expended on is NOT KNOWN OR SEEN!!.

Aregbesola created 20,000 jobs in his first 100 days,seeked NIMET's advice and heeded it by clearing all known drainages,water bodies etc in preparation for the rainy season which eventually wrecked havoc in neighbouring Lagos,Oyo,Ogun and Ondo states!You will appreciate this gesture if you once lose your property to flood.

Aregbesola started a sustainable agricultural revolution in the state in partnership with IITA and Netherland to develop a profitable template for profitable crop production in the state.The train coaches he bought is to increase transportation frequency on existing rail lines in the state and NOT build a new one.

The list of his success is endless and as such his name should not be on this thread at all.

Delta state is one of the richest states in the country but there is nothing to show for the huge allocation collected by the Governor.
Uduaghan should top the list of this thread with Tribalist T.A.Orji.

@ OP:
If your man is hooked on Ijeoma,there is almost nothing you can do?Either talk him out of it or betterstill change your wardrobe.
Start wearing strings-i hope it wont hurt-,sexy night gowns and learn to go down on him but please dont bite.
That might change him a little

She was abusive.Infact very abusive!!!!
Rude and arrogant.

Big Meat:

New candidates should come up and be considered for election.

There will be suprises come 2015.

The new unnoticed entrant into the Lagos 2015 race is Tunji Bello.
He is the defacto Deputy Governor and a great confidant of both BAT and BRF.
TB 2015

GEJ is slowly but consistently proving to be exactly who i think he is: A mistake in NIgeria's history.

Tinubu is not the owner of The Nation Airline!!!!
He is besides too smart to invest almost N10Billion in a project without being sure of the actual debt profile of the coy.
Who does that?
Airline business in Nigeria have proven to be a no-go area for brilliant investors,

What is the latest on this project

johnboyy:

A lot of misconceptions here. Let me put things right.

Dual citizenship is automatically allowed in some German states for Nigerians, eg. Bayern (Bavaria), Hessen, Nordrhein westfalen, Rheinland Pfalz, Berlin.

In other cases, an exemption permit can be obtained allowing the naturalization applicant to retain his former citizenship. However, this process is cumbersome and success ratio is limited. Also, dual Citizenship can be maintained if the applicant had tried for a period of 2 years without success to be released from the current nationality or the costs associated herewith exceeds his or her net monthly income.

Nigerians are now allowed to hold dual Nationality in the German states mention above as a result of a ministry of internal affairs policy position which rightly recognizes that a Nigerian Citizen cannot legally lose his Citizenship.

They held the opinion that the renunciation procedure at the Embassies and Consulates is a farce because the renunciation wishes in most cases are not communicated to the relevant authorities in Abuja and in the cases where that may have happened, are not properly and legally documented hence the Naturalized person involuntarily remains a Nigerian Citizen. This puts Nigeria in their opinion in the category of Countries which regularly denies renunciation to its citizens.

someone opined that the individual caught smuggling drugs would lose his citizenship. That is not true.

German citizenship once conferred can only be lost in a set of scenarios.

1. The naturalized person Applies and receives another countries citizenship. (except the citizenship of an EU member country or Switzerland, or a country which has signed a Treaty with Germany according to the German Citizenship regulation § 12 Abs. 3 StAG or applied and received a waiver in advance).

2. The naturalized person joined or served in another countries armed forces.

In a case where the citizenship is obtained by fraud (Erschlichene Einbürgerungen), the naturalization Authority (Einbürgerungsbehörde) or a court may enter a judgement vacating its confernment.

These are the scenarios, anything else is not applicable.

Thanks for educating these guys,
I have both Nigerian and German nationality.I dont need a visa to travel to Nigeria

Fashola needs to do more on Lagos schools,
More teachers needs to be hired to bridge the shortfall,
16 Teachers for almost 1,500 students is just not fair

G.O.S was a former LG Chairman who did nothing in his Mushin LG.
He should ffix Olateju,Ogidan,Vitafoam roads before thinking of becoming Governor

queensmith:

I very much prefer non-yoruba guys. I wont say ibo guys cos its not neccesarily ibo traits that are attractive, its the yoruba ones that are sickening. First time i tried to date a yoruba guy was disastrous! To me theyre pretty much all the same

But the same cant be said for igbo/non yoruba men, if one must date a naija guy, they are much better

Thats your opinion!!!
Ask those who marry Yoruba guys and you will hear another story.
For those who feels Yoruba chicks are "dirty",they must be dating the housemaid,caterer and omo-alata types.
Female hygiene cuts across all ethnic divisions.
