Correct 💯
You have made very valid points and obi just showed the whole world that he is a boy in suffisticated essential projects. This makes Tinubu the only and best candidate among them in service delivery. Imagine the benefit of coastal super highway to Nigeria in future. I ed when dangote refinery was to be constructed, it was a lot of pains to the community relocations and business affected, Tinubu was tagged different bad names to have sold the future to a northerner among several people insulted. Today, those people have buried their faces in shame. 8yrs after Imagine the refinery benefits to the community and entire country? It's simply visionary.

pls what is the meaning of the highlighted? how is tinubu the "the only and best candidate among them in service delivery"? what exactly has he done since may 29, 2023 that makes him "the only and best candidate among them in service delivery"? what is the benefit of coastal super highway to Nigeria in future? how have nigerians benefitted from dangote refinery thus far?

I have answered you. I can't help you read and I can't help you assimilate.

the word "affront" means insult. how in your response did you state how his condemnation of the road is an insult to the niger delta people? are you from the niger delta and did the people of the niger delta tell you that obi's condemnation of the road is an affront on them? or dont you know the meaning of the word you used?

how Obis condemnation of the project an affront against niger delta?

second, you earlier claimed that "Peter Obi doesn't want the progress for the Niger Delta." can you explain how peter obi does not want the progress of the niger delta?

where in your response did you state how obi does not want the progress for Niger delta?

I also asked you the following:
is it this road that will make niger delta progress? are you saying that if this road is not built niger delta will not make progress?

those 2 questions require a simple yes or no. can you show me where in your response you provided information that answers those 2 questions?

CluelessMODS:

Those Yorubas that voted him can see what is going on, their eyes are now opened. Never will he Obi get such votes again.

what are the yorubas that voted him now seeing?

flokii:


Fvck off my mentions.

and if i dont, what are you going to do about it?

if we have to go by your claim about what Obi did in Anambra as a criteria for him to criticise tinubu, what qualified tinubu and buhari to criticise Jonathan? if you say thank God that Obi didnt emerge as president, can we thank God that tinubu emerged as president? you are accusing obi of "pushing ethnic agenda but what are you pushing with this comment: "he would have left Yorubaland especially Lagos to rot away while he'd focus on fixing his Igbo people everywhere in juicy positions at Abuja"

how will The Lagos-Calabar coastal highway reduce all the trailer and tanker queues at Lagos ports? what concerns the road and congestion at lagos port?

Roads boost trade through the easy transfer of goods and services by interconnecting areas.

Roads also help economies and reduce poverty by creating jobs for artisans, drivers and masons. The fact that the road would go through Niger Delta states means that the people would be employed and fend for themselves. In addition, it improves tourism and boost connections among our people.

The bulk of the funds for the country comes from the Niger Delta. They deserve a signature project.

Finally, the road can be a revenue generator in the long run when it is tolled. Opening up areas through road networks bring development in every ramification.

Anyone against this project is anti-progress.

it seems your response was meant for someone else because I dont see how you answered the questions I asked you.

how Obis condemnation of the project an affront against niger delta? you earlier claimed that "Peter Obi doesn't want the progress for the Niger Delta." can you explain how peter obi does not want the progress of the niger delta? is it this road that will make niger delta progress? are you saying that if this road is not built niger delta will not make progress?

flokii:
Wetin this olodo know?.. a man that has no achievement infrastructure wise in his 8 wasted years as Governor of Anambra too is talking.
Thank God the colossal failure didn't emerge president, he would have left Yorubaland especially Lagos to rot away while he'd focus on fixing his Igbo people everywhere in juicy positions at Abuja and pushing his ethnic domination agenda throughout the country. Empty vessel.

God haters.. The Lagos-Calabar coastal highway is a more cost efficient way of reducing all the trailer and tanker queues at Lagos ports causing untold hardship on Lagosians.

sorry, let get you right. if we have to go by your claim about what Obi did in Anambra as a criteria for him to criticise tinubu, what qualified tinubu and buhari to criticise Jonathan? if you say thank God that Obi didnt emerge as president, can we thank God that tinubu emerged as president? you are accusing obi of "pushing ethnic agenda but what are you pushing with this comment: "he would have left Yorubaland especially Lagos to rot away while he'd focus on fixing his Igbo people everywhere in juicy positions at Abuja"

how will The Lagos-Calabar coastal highway reduce all the trailer and tanker queues at Lagos ports? what concerns the road and congestion at lagos port?

Ezewuzie01:
Peter Obi too dey lie. Goat shit fall on his crooked mouth.

what did he lie about?

professorPABX:


It is an affront against the Yorubas. The IBOS will leave to regret it. OBI is nobody if Obasanjo, Baba Ayo Adebanjo and Doyin Okupe did not not give him hope. I rest my case here.

what has that got to do with the question I asked and how does it answer the question:
how is Obis condemnation of the project an affront against niger delta?

emkz:


Like the confidence with which himself and Atiku condemned the project! I see it as an affront against the Niger Delta. When Buhari launched the construction of Kano-Marado railway, where were Atiku and Obi?

how is Obis condemnation of the project an affront against niger delta? you earlier claimed that "Peter Obi doesn't want the progress for the Niger Delta." can you explain how peter obi does not want the progress of the niger delta? is it this road that will make niger delta progress? are you saying that if this road is not built niger delta will not make progress?

Goodvibes007:
Same way he was demolishing houses and businesses in Anambra to make way for highway.

Hypocrite.



Dear @PeterObi

It appears you have allowed your electoral loss to convert you into a full blown pathological liar and a desperate man on a mission to always deceive.

How on earth would you say that over 100,000 jobs are about to be lost because of the Lagos-Calabar coastal road project. How many times do you need to be told that the Landmark beach resort for instance, is not going to lose any of its buildings. Landmark has no building on the beach itself apart from chairs, tents, astro turfs etc. The Landmark towers, Landmark Apartments, their event centre and shopping arcade, are NOT affected by the demolition.

In fact the beach that is going to form part of the road is within the federal government's right of way, which makes any structure on that path an illegal structure. Are you saying if you are President, you will cede the federal government's right of way to any developer?

Meanwhile, as Governor of Anambra State, you demolished part of Premier Brewery in Onitsha to make way for road reconstruction and you said at the time that any building that stands in the way of road construction will be brought down with no compensation. You did not COMION IN PUBLIC POLICY then or the effect on the business of Premier Brewery. What changed now? Your hypocrisy and short memory needs to be studied in a Philosophy school honestly.

In case you don't know, the value the Lagos-Calabar coastal road will bring to that corridor after construction far outweighs whatever structures that will be demolished. This is not even hard to comprehend. A new beach front will definitely emerge and tourism will be greatly boosted. It is now obvious that you are not capable of grand visioning. You only see the present.

If previous istrations in Lagos were only looking at the present with no grand vision, Landmark will not even have a place to erect his investments in the first place. The Lagos great seawall made it possible. The coastal road is a boulevard like no other within Lagos, and your wailing cannot stop it. I understand that you are a minimalist that thrives on doing the barest minimum with poor quality as your watchword, so, I'm not totally surprised that the scope of the Lagos-Calabar coastal road is shocking to you.

It's even amusing that you're complaining that the project is progressing at a fast pace and yet insinuating that the project will take 30 years to be completed or likely to be abandoned. Do you even listen to what you say sometimes?

My advice to you is just to sit back, relax and watch as Engr. Dave Umahi delivers what you think is impossible. Action is better than cho cho cho.

I also think you are threatened by the rising profile and undeniable competence of Minister of Works, Dave Umahi and the reality that he will one day become the first president of Nigeria from the South East in the 4th Republic while you take your place as one of most dangerously deceitful and bitter politician to have ever graced Nigeria's political landscape.

in what way is Umahi competent?

franugo:


Try to stick to topic and provide smart inputs. Maersk MD met tinubu but did not agree to invest any amount of money as widely publicized for whatever stupid reason by the presidency.

if the presidency decided to make announcement about something that does not exist, how is that different from the points raised in the comment you responded to? is this the first time this same presidency is publicizing the existence of what does not exist?

Beautifulday:


E still dey pipeline nah. E go soon manifest. Chill small

the thing no see fuel take travel from india to nigeria

Beautifulday:


They have been begging nah. Maybe they don lying.

dont you the $14b investment they said tinubu had "secured" from indian businessmen?

ivandragon:
Say what

Hopefully there is a miscommunication somewhere which would be cleared up.

A $600m investment would do a lot of good in the Nigerian economy right now.

just like the miscommunication of the $14b investment from indian business men. how far with one? has the investment not left india yet? what will this $600m audio inveestment do for the nigerian economy?

aywagze:
We have gas, we have dams ..give Nigerians cheap electricity to drive productivity from grassroots ..they will rather be travelling up and down and attend meaningless meetings like idiots looking for who will come and invest in the banana republic ..🤔

you forgot to add abundant sunlight in the north that is like fire

Beautifulday:
Imagine government begging for investment. It is finished.

If nah you, will you invest in a country begging for investment?

begging or lying?

Gbadugbakun:
I know say e no go Northern senators. Very useless and uncultured set of people.

are the others from other parts of the country any better?

IzunnaOkafor:
By Izunna Okafor, Awka

A yet-to-be-identified lady has reportedly died in Anambra State after allegedly smoking Colorado, a psychotropic drug, popularly known as “Colos” — the eponym for the popular slang “On Colos”.

The incident reportedly happened over the weekend in Awka, the State capital, where the lady was said to have repeatedly smoked the psychotropic and acted in strange ways before finally giving up the ghost.

This was corroborated by a video and voice note currently trending on the social media about the incident.

While the video shows the lifeless body of the victim lying close to the Y-Junction Axis of the UNIZIK Junction-Okpuno road, the masculine voice note of an eyewitness that accompanies it explained that the she became unconscious and started misbehaving after smoking the dangerous drug, even to the point of perambulating the street stack naked.

This, the eyewitness said, made some sympathizers to hold and assist her with a cloth to cover up her unclothedness. The sympathizers were also said to have fed her with enough soaked garri to douse the effect of the substance on her.

It was however, reported that shortly after she began to regain her consciousness, she went and smoked the Colorado again, which eventually led to her collapse, downfall and consequent death along the ever-busy road.

Her corpse was also said to have been taken away by her people after some ersby recognized her and invited her family , who came and evacuated her corpse.

When recently ed by this reporter, Izunna Okafor, the State Commandant of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Anambra, Mr. Daniel Onyishi described such incident as one of the numerous inherent dangers and consequences of drug abuse and how it destroys the youths.

According to him, Colorado is a psychotropic and one of the dangerous drugs that have rendered and still render many people useless in the society, adding that ‘colos’ is also addictive, while its effect is instantaneous, as it flows straight to the bloodstream, affecting one's mental wellness.

The NDLEA Boss said that such things are what the Agency has been preaching against through its various sensitization programs in secondary schools and other public places in the State, including through the radio program “NDLEA and You” which holds from 11.am to 12.pm every Tuesday on ABS 88.5FM.

“That is why everybody should stay off drugs and us to fight drug abuse. If you know anyone who uses or deals on drugs, make NDLEA know. People should not be harbouring such persons or take drug as a business,” Onyishi emphatically stated in a telephone interview with this reporter.

which one be "downfall"?

Almunjid:

Apart from insulting President TINUBU and wishing that his government fails, what else do u do for a living? Just a single dose of the pills u push down our throats on a daily basis is difficult for u to gulp?

kindly give me an assessment of tinubus government since may 29, 2023. has the government succeeded or has it failed? how has your wish that tinubus government succeeds made the government to succeed and how has the wish you claim that I am wishing for tinubu to fail made tinubu to fail? what pill is it that that you say am pushing down your throat on a daily basis that is difficult for me to gulp? can you show me the insult you say I insulted tinubu?

You can cry from now till Jesus come. Your Obi is a condemn cargo. He will never smell Aso rock.

how has the person that has smelled Aso rock been doing his job?

Almunjid:

What's ur obsession with Pāndora Obi? That's exactly how Northerners were wailing and became dissatisfied with every government because they believed that only Buhari can solve our problems. Now we have all seen the next level Buhari promised us.
Time to play politics don . It will be better if u move on by ing the current government instead of always wailing and wishing that the Tinubu government fails for u to be able to say, "I said it". U have the right to wail and express ur dissatisfaction if Tinubu failed to fulfil his campaign promises. Life is too short for one to use 8 years of his life wailing up and down.

its a simple question...is this fuel scarcity worsening because peter obi did not build any refinery while he was governor? yes or no.

except the meaning of the word "obsessed" has changed in the dictionary, maybe you can explain how Obi's name appears in almost all your comments on nairaland.

is life not too short for you to be chasing after peter obi who is not a public official and who is not holding any political position?

how were northerners "wailing and became dissatisfied with every government because they believed that only Buhari can solve our problems. Now we have all seen the next level Buhari promised us?' find below a screenshot with tinubu telling Nigerians that buhari was Nigeria's only solution. was tinubu not one of those at the fore front of promoting buharis next level and said he will continue from were buhari stopped?

so far, how has tinubu done better than buhari?

how do you go about "ing the current government"? what does the current government need? is it my that will make the government carry out its constitutional responsibilities? how has the you have been giving the current government resulted in better governance and improved standard of living for nigerians?

akan102:

Putin without any aggression from Ukraine invaded Ukraine destroyed people in thousands, lifes that could have been alive now, destroyed a country economy and etc without any provocation from Ukraine.
But Palestinians tagged with Hamas invaded Israel without any provocation killed 1200+ people, kidnapped and taken other Israelis over 200 as hostages yet you are here ing Hamas and happy as ICC tries to tagg Israelis as war criminals for defending their country now and in foreseeable future instead of Hamas

how does that justify the destruction of several buildings and the more than 30,000 palestinians killed so far by the Israeli military?

but the US can instigate the ICC to arrest Putin, Omar Bashir and any other person the US deems fit to be arrested

But no be lie ooh. I've not seen a lot of brands of biscuit these days oh.

even the ones that are still operating have drastically cut down on quality and quantity in order to stay afloat

the guy is talking as if we have not been experiencing black out. can he say he still depends on NEPA for light?

NuCypher:
One keeps wondering why Emefiele isn't already behind bars. What is the point of all these rigmaroles and repeated court dates when the man is clearly guilty!? Nigeria has never seen a more corrupt Central Bank governor.

what of the guy who "collected" the $600k? why is he not in jail? is collecting bribe no longer a crime?

OPICANTO2223:
Heartless Emefiela need to face the law

then how come the so called witness is not also facing the law?

FreeStuffsNG:

Electricity has greatly improved. The major current problem now is pricing. The subsidy keeps mounting and FG knows it's not sustainable to keep the subsidies. If people price electricity well and pay for it they will demand for the best service but if FG keeps subsidising it there will be too much wastages and inefficiency like predominates before now.

tinubu, his ministers, governors and state legislators is enjoying free feeding, free transportation, free healthcare, free clothing, free security, free phone calls, free accommodation, free electricity all at home and abroad not to talk of money they steal here and there which they squander on themselves and their girlfriends. this is worse than subsidy. how come those in government that you keep enjoying these freebies and you feel the nigerian people dont deserve subsidy which is far cheaper than freebies?

David160:
Very poor

that is the whole idea. exams are meant to separate those who have academic ambitions from those who dont. unfortunately, schools will still use their remedial programmes to absorb all sorts of people
