Children brought up in joint families are more intelligent as compared to the ones in nuclear families, because they get to interact with humans more.
I am not against pets, but promotion of pets was done in Western countries in order to alienate humans from families and promote more expenses per person.
They call it "Product Per Person" and have targets even in India to promote max expenses per person.

Living alone in western countries is the reason for all sorts of mental illnesses. It was enforced by Leftists and should be discouraged.
The Iran war is a setback for the Tinubu administration on the investment front. A big part of the government’s strategy has been to attract capital from Gulf countries, and there were already signs of progress.

This morning, I spoke with someone who knows far more about this than I do, and his view was this:
If the war drags on without a clear off-ramp, GCC states may have to reassess global investments to shore up their financial position at home. The ripple effects for countries reliant on Gulf capital could be significant.

Respectfully sir, @tokunbo_wahab. We’ve seen Julius Berger deploy a pipe-jacking system in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state under then Gov. Godswill Akpabio. My concern is why perennial flooding in the Lekki axis has persisted for years without exploring similar solutions.

Dear Lagosians,
We sincerely sympathize with all residents who were affected by the flash floods witnessed in parts of the State yesterday. We understand the discomfort and disruption it caused and we deeply empathize with those who were affected.
As a coastal city, Lagos is naturally vulnerable to flooding, especially during periods of heavy rainfall combined with tidal lock. Despite this, the State Government has continued to invest in drainage infrastructure, regular desilting, and enforcement of environmental laws to minimize flooding incidents and protect lives and property.
We must also provide clarity on some of the affected areas. At Kusenla, the challenge is technical: the downstream is about 1.2 meters higher than the invert of the existing drainage, as confirmed by the survey conducted for the ongoing project awarded by the State government at the end of Kusenla road which includes a pumping station. Around House on the Rock church, the flooding was linked to infractions we highlighted earlier; illegal construction on flood plains and dumping of refuse in drains. These kinds of activities worsen flooding and must stop.
We appeal for understanding and continued cooperation from the public. Keeping our environment clean, refraining from dumping refuse into drains, and avoiding construction on floodplains are vital to achieving a flood-free Lagos. In several of the videos shared yesterday, clear infractions were observed, and @followlasg will ensure that such illegal structures and obstructions are promptly removed. Including those illegal reclamations carried out without the requisite Environmental Impact Assessment Report and the Drainage Clearance.
We also wish to assure residents that the flooding was a flash flood in some parts of the State and has since receded this morning. The Ministry remains committed to strengthening our flood management systems, but this effort requires the support and responsible actions of all Lagosians.
Together, we can build a safer, cleaner, and more resilient Lagos.

I’ll focus on BAT for now.

Thanks for this thread @yojora. Since 1999, Lagos state govs have at different points been intentional about creating an enabling environment to attract investors. From BAT to BRF down to BOS.
Where were the other states when these ones were at it?

Tinubu has always been big on using private capital to drive large investments in infrastructure projects.
As governor, he launched the “Lagos Infrastructure Project” (LIP) which birthed the Lekki Concession Company, that rebuilt the Lekki-Epe Expressway…

Only those who experienced Tinubu in Lagos & read his manifesto know many govt assets will be handed to the private sector to fund.
Cos it’s funny how many think the coastal highway, other highways & 3MB will be govt funded.
Where do they expect govt to get all those trillions?

Here’s 1
EXCLUSIVE: NNPC CEO’s fate hangs in the balance over deals with @atiku’s son-in-law
The days of Bashir Bayo Ojulari as the group CEO of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Limited are numbered, TheCable has been informed.
Although there are reports that he has resigned, TheCable learnt from insiders that he has not thrown in the towel yet, “but only a miracle will keep him in office at this stage”.
President Bola Tinubu, who appointed him to replace Mele Kyari only four months ago, is said to be “livid” over security reports on Ojulari’s activities so far in office.

“No one in the north asked for it” is a hasty generalization.
It’s like saying no one asked for the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway. Many in the south never knew of such concept before now, but I’d like to think many now support it because of its economic potential.
#ShortThread
You’re the only person talking about this Sokoto Badagry project. And frankly, no one in the North asked for it. The ACF specifically outlined road of strategic importance to the North that it wants to see started or completed.
Kano-KD rail, KD-Abj road far more important
President Tinubu is intentional about the development of the South East. Beyond the $3 billion for rail, he’s also committing $508 million to modernising Nigeria’s eastern port infrastructure.
There are also two separate allocations of $1.14 billion & $1.07 billion
#ShortThread
I extend my appreciation to His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for the recent approval of $3 billion allocation for the completion of the Eastern Rail Line. This project is a game-changer for the South East connecting Aba and Onitsha to key markets in the Northern region that will boost our economy by linking major trade hubs and unlock over ₦50 billion in annual trade.
This bold step is a clear demonstration that the Renewed Hope Agenda is not just mere rhetorics but tangible actions. By prioritizing the Eastern corridor, Mr. President has once again shown his love for Ndi Igbo, commitment to inclusive national development and regional connectivity.
At the appropriate time, this gesture will be reciprocated. For now, we express our profound gratitude: thank you, Mr. President.
Lol 😂. Let’s break down the inaccuracy of this sorta narrative for the many dummies in the quotes and comments.
Dangote has a local truck assembly plant in Nigeria, but still imported 4,000 CNG trucks worth over $350 million.
Ever wondered why?

Wonderful speech by Mr President to the joint parliament of Saint Lucia. The speech was addressed to the OECS which has 11 member states.
I know many would ask how strategic this visit really is to a country with a GDP far less than each of the states in Nigeria.

North East Nass Caucus holds a press conference today at the National Assembly, lamenting the exclusion of the North East from the Special Agro-Industrial Processing Zones (SAPZ),
The SAPZ is an agricultural development initiative with a budget of $530 million, financially supported by the Federal Government, the African Development Bank (AfDB), the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB), and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD).
Senator Danjuma Goje, while reading a statement from the Caucus, mentioned that the North-East is the largest geopolitical zone in the country, occupying almost one-third of Nigeria's total area of 272,451 square kilometers (105,194 square miles). He emphasized that the region's potential in various aspects of the agricultural sector is highly significant.
