Everyone expected the pastor's wife to have cancelled her already planned and fully paid-for birthday celebration because a 'big man' in the church died. If it was a poor man that died, would people also have expected the birthday to be cancelled? 8 Likes |

Man102:I thought this Isiguzo guy has been debunked several times as not being an exco of ohaneze? Nigger is just a pay per talk sycophant of APC and Tinubu, just like the infamous fake bishops, leading a fictitious faction of ohaneze. Quite funny how some parts of the media desparately rush to publish whatever the Isiguzo fellow says as an offical statement from Ohaneze. |

neyobills:- If my grandma had 2 wheels, she would have been a motorcycle. - If my dad had wings, he would have been a boeing 747. Both of the above sentences are instances, but one thing common to them is that they are both meaningless and unrealistic instances. You dont need nursery education to discern that. Thd point being made here is you should stop making unrealistic instances in arguments. You cant keep assuming that EA planes are idle and rotting away on the tarmac while AP planes are being utilised to 150% capacity; where're you digging up these pointless instances from? If EA management was stupid enough to just amass 154 planes that are idle (as you keep suggesting in your instances), then EA would have since folded up cos airline businesses thrive on aircraft utilisation. If the airline is reporting profits and expanding its fleet, shouldnt common sense tell you they're getting bookings? Had it been that AP had like over 100 planes while EA had 154, perhaps your assumptions and argument would have been reasonable. Do you know how terribly bad business has to be for EA with 154 planes to have less overall enger headcount than an airline with 29 planes? Meanwhile talking of Ryanair, are you aware Ryansir has over 580 active planes compared to Emirates eith about 260?... Ryanair is also a low cost airline that almost operates what I'd call a 'molue' service; they thrive on short routes and maximise number of seats in their planes. Looking at the numbers, common sense can easily tell you and I that Ryanair would have more enger turnover than emirates. If I may ask, on what evidence is your argument even based? Just assumptions? Or is it the obviously fictitious and severally debunked figures posted by the OP? |

neyobills:You seem to dig out weird numbers from your imagination, believe the numbers, build your arguments on these imaginary numbers, and then them across as facts. How did you arrive at the conclusion that only 4 out of 154 EA planes are dedicated to Africa? A quick check to EA's website reveals the run to over 20 local destinations (in-country) and over 60 destinations in Africa. How did you come to the conclusion that only 4 planes are used for these over 80 destinations? Cc: pappilo |

neyobills:Lol... You're actually a funny individual for confidently perpetuating such an illogical argument despite what everyone has told you. By the way, I'm a well educated adult with a sound mind and also with the gift of discernment. I don't have to work in the aviation industry to understand basic number; this is common sense! I'm wondering where you got your idea from that the OP was referring to only engers carried within Africa; but let's even assume its within Africa like you claim. The EA fleet operating within Africa far outnumbers the entire AP fleet; EA travels to over 20 cities within Ethiopia and over 60 cities in Africa. How many destinations does AP fly to? You keep repeating this argument about AP flying to a destination 3 times a day but EA flying to same destination once in 3 days; where on earth are you digging up these imaginary numbers from? EA has been in existence for almost 80 years and is the largest and most profitable airline in Africa, but somehow you think the management of EA are idiots that they don't know how to maximally utilise their planes? Are you saying EA doesn't know how to manage an airline business? They're not getting frequent bookings but somehow they keep buying more and more planes, expanding their fleet even with more wide-body aircrafts and they're not getting bookings?? Buying more and more planes to fly empty? What kind of voodoo economics is that? Is this what you've learnt from your time working in the aviation industry? Just like @pappilo pointed out to you, even if AP converts all its 29 planes to 777's carrying up to 300 engers per plane, AP wouldn't still match the capacity of EA. Abeg try using common sense sometimes; cos you keep making your so called time in the aviation industry questionable. |

neyobills:Not sure I can wrap my head around the logic of this your argument... Ethiopian Airlines has 154 planes; that is more than 5 times the fleet size of AirPeace which has just 29 planes. EA also has way more wide-body aircrafts than AP and travels to more destinations, but somehow you think AP is ferrying more engers annually than EA?... How exactly is this even logical to you?... Somehow you've assumed and confidently concluded that EA just bought their 154 planes as decorations; obviously they aren't sufficiently knowledgeable or smart or capable of efficiently optimising the use of their 154 planes, that must be why AP is flying more engers annually with just 29 planes. All of this just because you saw some unverified figures plucked from God knows where? Meanwhile I saw an analogy you gave in one of your earlier posts about how AP with just one A380 should be able to ferry more engers than EA with four A320's. Obviously that was an attempt by you to play down the relevance of EA's fleet size; afterall fleet size is just a number and just "sentiments". But did you even bother to research the equipment both airlines have in their fleet before jumping to your conclusions?... Just to clarify, both airlines don't have A380's, but if we must stick with this your analogy, the more realistic comparison and question you should try and answer is how AP with one A380 would carry more engers than EA with 9 A380's. 2 Likes 1 Share |

neyobills:Except you guys are saying Ethiopian Airlnes have just parked two-thirds of their fleet on the ground for decoration, there's absolutely no logic in the world that can make Air Peace with a fleet size of 29 carry more engers yearly than Ethiopian airlines with a fleet size of 154 planes. No airline buys planes to park them at the tarmac to waste away. 2 Likes 1 Share |

immortalcrown:I've made my point already; Erisco attempting to lawlessly 'deal' with the lady is a typical case of Nigerian big men trying to oppress the poor - It has nothing to do with tribe and such lawless acts are not restricted to any tribe.

Saint99:Aba is about a 40 mins drive from the Sam Mbakwe (Imo) airport under good road conditions. If we're to be honest with ourselves, putting political, ethnic and other irrational considerations aside, I don't believe an airport is a most pressing economic or developmental priority for Abia state. 1 Like |

AnyanwuSilas:The SS people never fought against building the NLNG plant and neither did they fight against building other relevant infrastructure required to extract or sell or gas. Rather, what the SS people clamour for is a higher share of the income that comes from selling their oil and gas, and in my opinion, that's a sensible thing to fight for. On the other hand, what are you and your ilk on this forum clamouring for? You're fighting against building the primary infrastructure (pipelines) needed to convert the gas to wealth. In your honest opinion, is that a sensible fight when compared with the clamour of the SS? |

AnyanwuSilas:Gas reserves are all over the southern and even some middle belt basins in Nigeria. In the last 60 years or so, 97% of Nigeria's oil and gas production has been from the south-south region and this has literally fed the entire six regions of Nigeria for the last 6 decades. We've never seen people of the SS screaming blue murder on how SS gas is being sold to Europe or Asia or the Americas; we also never heard people of the SS lamenting the building of NLNG train 1 to 5. Why exactly have you guys insisted on bringing ridicule to the SE with this 'our gas' campaign? So let's even assume there's gas reserves only in the SE, how exactly can this gas be converted to wealth if pipelines aren't built? |

Why's the entire discussion on this thread about the south east? Is it genuine ignorance at play or just a deliberate attempt at mischief? Cos the last time I checked, over 90% of Nigeria's current gas production is currently from the south-south.

Is asking for transparency really such an offensive thing or perhaps a sin before God? Financial transparency to congregants and the government is a norm in churches in some foreign countries. Does this make these churches less holy or sanctified? Why is it mainly in African churches that asking for financial transparency is frowned upon? 5 Likes 1 Share |

Wickedfacts:You love the south south so much, so why didnt you start the project in the south south? You conveniently started it in Lagos knowing fully well the construction will barely ever cross beyond the Lagos border even in 8 years. You love the south south so much but the existing east-west road which links all major states in the region, you've refused to complete it after 2 decades, citing lack of funds. It'd cost less than a trillion naira to complete the east-west road but you claim there's no money for that; instead you choose to prioritise building a brand new N15trillion road starting with Phase 1 which conveniently starts and ends inside Lagos. Meanwhile it is Igbos that hate the SS? So much love for the south south indeed! ❤️ |

These clowns will stop at nothing to force this into an ethnic debate.... They know that once they mention ethnicity, every chance of a sensible debate is buried and then the thieves in power have the freedom to loot however they please..... You claim theres no money to fix the existing roads that go across the south south region, yet you want to spend an imaginary N15 trillion to build a brand new road?.... You claim you're doing it for the south south, yet you're starting inside Lagos (and obviously ending inside Lagos).

Christistruth00:Common sense is what I stated; political and ethnic sentiments is the only reason the simple logic wouldn't make sense to some of you. Stop trying to decieve yourself thinking you're deceiving the south south with fake love. Niger bridge was a totally different scenario and can never be compared. There was nothing wrong with the existing bridge besides the perennial vehicular traffic which causes agony to commuters. Under that scenario, the only sensible solution was a second bridge. If the existing niger bridge was barely motorable and could be fixed with a microscopic fraction of the cost of a new bridge, the agitation would have been for the existing bridge to be fixed first, especially since it would undoubtedly represent a quicker, cheaper, practical, easily achievable and most sensible solution from the perspective of prioritsation. Again, this is common sensesense! |

Christistruth00:You want to help the south south, yet you didnt complete the east-west road that's been under construction for 20 years? You want to help the South South yet didnt complete the Sagamu-Ore-Benin-Sapele-Warri road thats been under construction for over 2 decades? You want to help the south south yet you cant patch up the Benin-Auchi road that's swallowing vehicles every rainy season? All of the above roads connect all major cities in the south south and would cost less than N1trillion to fix, but for over 2 decades you claim there's no money to fix them. Rather because you love the south south so much, you want to sink N15.6 trillion into a brand new coastal superhighway starting with Phase 1 which conveniently starts and ends inside Lagos? You people must think you're talking to cavemen. 2 Likes |
