Journeying From Lagos To Onitsha:Check Points

Concerned by the increasing complaints about the pains of Nigerians plying the Lagos-Onitsha route, I decided to seize an opportunity on Wednesday, November 27, 2019 to find out the real situation. For complete experience,
I traveled with one of the transporters at Jibowu. After an excruciating traffic along Redeemed Church corridor, we finally commenced the journey to Onitsha at 10:30am. By the time we arrived the Niger Bridge, I had counted 60 checkpoints. I was painstakingly taking notes and few
shots. These checkpoints were manned by either soldiers, police, customs, SARS, FRSC or a combination. Below are the locations of the checkpoints to guide your next trip to Onitsha.

LAGOS TO ORE:
1. Ilisan - Police checkpoint just in front of Babcock University
2. Ilisan 2 -

National Commission for the Prohibition of Hate Speech (NACOPHS) 😂😂😂😂😂

''So, they will now recruit staff for them with a Director General. Of course, complete with a Board.

And then they will have the HQ in Abuja with offices in 36 states. Each State will have a State
Director.

There will be fleet of cars for them.
Annual budget. Estacode for trips and training.
All of these when we should be reducing the cost of governance in view of dwindling revenue! When we should actually merge some MDAs or scrap some out rightly?
What kind of water do
do they drink in Abuja sef?''

Facebook's News Feed algorithm seems to be surfacing more fake news than ever. bit.ly/2HBC8Aa
A friend—apologies for stealing his theory—once claimed to me the problem with News Feed is that Facebook "engagement" is more or less a proxy for eliciting an emotional response. And you probably want an emotional response when sharing personal updates with family/friends…
But what happens when you reward *news* content—especially hard news or political news—that elicits an emotional response? You wind up with the complete shitshow that News Feed has become.

Born & raised in #Fanar #Lebanon, a tiny country in the middle east with a lot to offer. I always had a positive outlook on life maybe because of the culture or values🤷‍♀️.
If you don't know #Lebanon or a #lebanese then you should start mingling 🤣

I grew up surrounded by a loving, joking & tough type of family that always support each other even amidst fighting. You can imaging being 4 kids in different age groups can cause a lot of fights growing up 😂 #siblingsfight #family #VoicesIWS
@IWS_Network
I have my issues🤷‍♀️! I always wanted to prove myself & make my family proud(2nd child). A pressure that was just in my head; they were always proud of us. I wanted to grow up to be a doctor or an army officer like my dad. Let's just say I changed my mind! #VoicesIWS @IWS_Network
