OBASANJO and @atiku "OPERATING WITHOUT AN ECONOMIC SENSE OF CRITERIA." These was how Mark Tomlinson, a director at the World Bank, described the senseless spending of N53Billion on Abuja stadium after throwing NEPA and NIGERIA AIRWAYS staffers out of jobs.
allafrica.com/stories/200112…
This was how OBJ & @atiku left the stadium they paid $360 million (then 53 billion Naira) to build, at about the time they both built private universities. This picture was shared by RayPower as far back as 2012. Its not a propaganda by APC. #PDPNeverAgain
The only memorable thing PDP achieved with its $360 Million Stadium is the immigration recruitment stampede that left 14 job seekers dead and many injured, after Abba Moro sold 520,000 forms at N1,000, raking in N520Million paid into a private proxy account, for 4556 job opening.
As if d Immigration tragedy wasnt enough, Jonathan abandoned his N5Billion stoves imported from South Africa in d Abuja Stadium. Without any track record in renewable energy projects, Integra Renewable Energy Services, managed by one Boma Young-Harry was paid N1.3Billion upfront.
See link for how contract was awarded. As documented with CAC, picture below is the street of the address provided by the company that was awarded N9.2Bn contract. @AfDB_Group is currently piloting same project for Kenya, Cameroun & Ghana at $3.9million

GIST
The bond between me & my elder brother is cultic. We're complete opposite & he indulges me to stupor. I had time to relive today, how we started a sword fight after watching Voltron & i stabbed him on his navel. The swords were decorative, hung on d wall in our living room.
We didnt know what 2do when he started bleeding & i begged him not to tell. I just got out of trouble starting a car's ignition with d manual gear engaged. The vehicle jumped forward and knocked down a neighbour's fence. My dad was already querying my mother if i was legitimate.
My brother agreed to not telling and i became his nurse. I wrapped several clothes over the bleeding to hide it until all the clothes we both have were soaked in blood. He's been bleeding for like 7hrs when he collapsed in the middle of the living room when everybody was there.

CAUTION: TRAFFIC LIGHTS ROBBERY
Lagosians, be very vigilant approaching traffic lights 'stop signs' in the evenings, especially on quiet roads. The new trick is to have u sandwiched, stopping behind a car at the lights with another vehicle from the same team of robbers behind u.
Tip #1 On multiple lanes, stop at red lights, staying on the empty lane.

Tip #2 If the light turns red with vehicle(s) ahead of you and there isn't an empty space, decelerate quickly to a crawling speed, pulling off slightly, allowing enough room for vehicles behind to overtake.
Tip #3 Most Lagos roads have a "Turn On Red" yield or service lane, which is expected to be free when red light stops the onward lane. Queue against red lights closest to this yield or service lane for escape, in case u see people jumping out of d vehicle that stopped ahead of u.

#Atiku Want Sell #NNPC If Elected in 2019. Matters Arising. - Chidi Cali

1] APC Supporters Are Attacking Atiku over his planned intention to 'sell' NNPC, but let me educate their ignorance again.
2] Atiku want to Privatize NNPC, a policy that is justified because of the mismanagement and level of looting experienced in the Oil Industry in the last 30 months.

3] Some of the attack includes Atiku supervising the Sale of NITEL (which is not factually accurate).
4] NITEL, Nigeria as at 2009, has 4,647 employees.

5] The Privatization of the Communication sector (Telecommunication specifically) introduced over 1.12Million Jobs, over 6 Million indirect jobs and Billions of Dollar from tax revenue into the Treasury.

Vamos a hacerlo bien. Estoy estudiando este artículo: The Uninhabitable Earth, de @dwallacewells en @NYMag para mi próxima novela. Va sobre los desastrosos efectos (no tan lejanos) del cambio climático. Voy a ir comentándolo sobre la marcha en este HILO nymag.com/intelligencer/…
«The science says climate change threatens nearly every aspect of human life on this planet, and that inaction will hasten the problems» / La ciencia dice que el cambio climático amenaza casi cada aspecto de la vida humana en este planeta, y esa deriva acelerará los problemas.
«we have, trapped in Arctic permafrost, twice as much carbon as is currently wrecking the atmosphere of the planet, all of it scheduled to be released at a date that keeps getting moved up, partially in the form of a gas that multiplies its warming power 86 times over» Trad. ⬇️

So yesterday, Madam @obyezeks was caught again with wrong information as touching #UnemploymentRate in Nigeria, when she deliberately dished out a FALSE data & claimed it's from @nigerianstat
Well, she's in the Presidential race, so expect more LIES from her also.
Issa THREAD👇
Almost every politician now talks about #UnemploymentRate and #JobLoss under Buhari administration.
So let's check a little bit how this SUDDENLY became a topic.
When did this #JobLoss & #UnemploymentRate hit NIGERIANS?
Did this suddenly happen after PMB took over in 2015?
You will notice that even Ben Murray Bruce who took Bank loan of N11 Billion (2005) from Union Bank that led to #JobLoss & #UnemploymentRate in Nigeria also has been talking LOUD about the same MENACE he was part of those who caused o....
LISTEN again, Ben Bruce was part them!

1. @UNRWA expresses deep regret and disappointment at the US’ announcement that it will no longer provide funding to the Agency after decades of staunch political and financial support. RT
2. This decision is all the more surprising given that UNRWA and the United States renewed a funding agreement in December 2017 which had acknowledged the successful, dedicated and professional management of the Agency. RT
3. We reject in the strongest possible terms the criticism that UNRWA’s schools, health centers, and emergency assistance programs are “irredeemably flawed”. RT
