How over speeding claimed her life.

Some mistakes are avoidable if we try to be careful.
Getting to where you are going on time is important but getting there alive is more important. Please do not exceed your speed limit while driving during this festive period

Nigerian man manufactures Nigeria's first carbon fibre car

25-year-old Fabrication Engineer and CEO of Bennie Technologies LTD, Jerry Isaac Mallo unveiled Nigeria's first carbin fibre car which he manufactured on Thursday November 28. 

The Engineer who hinted on creating more innovative products said he was inspired to create the sports car because Nigeria and Africa is a very big market for luxury vehicles.

“In Europe, we learnt that making the car is just half of the challenge, and selling it is the other half; Africa is usually is the target place to sell these vehicles, so I feel there’s a big market for it here,” Mallo told Channels Television Sunrise Daily on Friday November 29. 

The Plateau state indigene who said his state government has been quite supportive, disclosed that Governor Simon Lalong was the chief unveiler of his car named Bernie Purrie.

LASTMA officer stoned to death during traffic sanitization exercise in Apapa

The General Manager of LASTMA, Olajide Oduyoye has condemned in its entirety the continued attack on the officers of the agency in the course of carrying out the function of traffic management which has been entrusted to them by a law passed by the State House of Assembly in the year 2000 and amended in the year 2018.

Oduyoye said this in the light of the murder of a LASTMA official, Ola Oyeshina who was attacked at about 5pm on Friday, 29th November during the course of sanitising Iganmu-Sifax axis of Apapa.

The General Manager disclosed that a large stone was thrown at Oyeshina. He was immediately rushed to Area "B" police station along with two of the people that attacked him, ACP Bayo Sulaimon thereafter ordered the detention of the two (2) attackers that were arrested while a letter of medical referral was issued for the victims attention at the hospital.

Oduyoye further revealed that owing to the trauma experienced, he (Ola Oyeshina) was immediately referred to LUTH from Randle Hospital, Surulere.

The LASTMA General Manager further revealed that it is unfortunate that the agency lost the young promising officer to the cold hand of death in the early hours of Saturday, 30th November, 2019.

He has therefore assured that the perpetrators of the dastardly act that were caught will be prosecuted in the court of law to serve as deterrent to other members of the public who may harbour committing such crime in future.

Oduyoye revealed that, "LASTMA was established to manage and control traffic in order to reduce the people's travel time on our roads, increase economic growth through increased productivity and ensure the populace safety and security, a situation where road users will now turn against any government official in order not to answer the consequences of breaking the law is unacceptable and would not be condoned henceforth".

Oduyoye emphasised that with the recent inauguration of a committee on war against traffic and environmental offenders, there is no more hiding place for Lagos residents or visitors that go against the law.

Sex life in the ghetto streets of Lagos part 1

Traffic build up has become one of the very annoying things you can't avoid on the streets of Lagos, Nigeria.

No matter how you try to avoid it, you end up in one and you just must follow up.

The funny thing is, you can't be a driver or a passenger in Lagos and not learn how to insult , curse and be prepared for madness at any given time.
It's a norm that insult must be unleashed on someone as a driver every day, as it makes up the daily activity of a Nigerian Road user.
This built up traffic is more terrible when we have tankers, containers,  flat bedded vehicles and other small vehicles like the commercial buses, SUVs etc. plying the same route every single day.
I never knew that behind that traffic build up that keeps faulty trailers and tankers over night on the road,  there are other activities that goes on at night that many may not know.
Have you ever wondered how this drivers survive on the high way for days, months without seeing their wives, after taking all sort of local man power herbs. ?

This particular night traffic build up was so terrible due to a break down of a truck and a crash not far from each other.. We had to ensure free flow of traffic and it was getting pretty late. We kept up and finally the traffic reduced.
We walked in between  vehicles to move and coordinate movements and we noticed a group of people in a very big round circle,  they were laughing and most were speaking the local northern language, Hausa.

Is marriage really an achievement ?

Until you ladies discover marriage isn't a do or die affair, until our relatives realizes that marriage isn't the utmost life achievement , until you decide that no matter what life throws at you it wont hurt you to a point you kill your conscience. Till then being desperate will be all our way 

of showing people around that you self dey and that you are capable of doing the things they do and have been done.

I have become very unserious when you bring up the topic when will you marry🤣
and it's really worked for me. Dont take people too serious that it affects your happiness and your what you do.
If you loose that job or that hustle because of desperation to be with someone who doesnt want to be with you, you will loose all eventually and that will make you more happy.
So many times I get calls from relative and they wanna sound like rice is all they wanna eat. Those people that didnt know how I went through to school or how I am living will have the right to now call and ask if I dont know a lady is a flower.
Flower kill you there  😏

Clitocurrency and Dicktization methods of exchange

  We haven't gone over sex for grade and now sex for ride/BJs for ride is now one of the bill paying method used by young Nigerian ladies to sort drivers of commercial vehicles.
  "A taxify driver told me recently that there's no week he's not being offered random sex by girls who don't have cab fares. Wilddddddd"  lines from a  Twitter handle @lionezz__
  Can we now say that  for the sake of equality in nature lots of female drivers should be allowed to drive in ubers and taxify so stranded male cab users can pay through dicktization methods. This is a summary of tha tweet by @royzkingin saying" I think it’s only fair that we have more female Taxify drivers so we can also pay for ride with our dicks.
We are fighting for Equity, right?"
    Let's not forget recently a pastor was seriously cleaning one of the tool for clitocurrency which the ladies now use as a medium of exchange for services now.

Katie Hopkins get your facts right.

I saw this post on Twitter and I can't stop imagining why a British will be so low thinking to compare her country to Nigeria.

Katie before you run your mouth next time please ensure you carry out a valid investigation and get your facts clear. so you dont make trend your self over uncertain facts. 

The young man in that video is a private servive guard. The Fire service in Nigeria doesnt wear the colour of the uniform in that video. 

This young man is a hero, he is suppose to be looked for and appreciated for risking his life to help put out fire when the fire fighters weren't making headway to put off fire. 

Say no to bad tyres

Just tell me why a car with this bad tyre will be on the high way?

It's saddens my heart when such person gets apprehended and they begin to beg, cry and some wants to fight.
It gets me more pained when I see passengers we want alive join the beg and most times start the fight.
I personally know the economy isn't too good , but my fellow Nigerians only the living has hope. Tyres have taken the lives of so many.
The general Tokunbo tyres are mostly Expired Tyres .  They may look good but dear , you are paying for a crash in no time.
Worn out tyres when breaks are applied can't hold grip of the road and this is one of the fastest way to crash.
Torn and patched tyres should on no occasion be used biko.
Nigerians don't fall victim of  crashes  caused by tyres .
My Next post will be on How to know an expired tyre.

You need to see this mad guy

Some road users are just mentally sick.
Just imagine someone's dad, boyfriend or brother doing this in this dispensation....🤷🏼‍♂🤷🏼‍♂
Then we will say village people caused the crash🙄🙄.
When will some of you start behaving like humans?
A law must be made to punish road user and  passenger who through their movement implicate drivers or riders to get booked.
This guy now will be toasting one sister and saying he get sense sha.…
And the rider will be forming I can ride.
The rate at which we should refer people to psychiatrists ehhhh.
Most will say I'm not mad.
Have u ever seen a mad man accept he is mad?
It takes more than just having a car to be a driver, it takes more than just having a bike to be a rider.
Safety is a shared responsibility
Refuse to be a facilitator of traffic offence.
Be the passenger that wants to arrive safe, and move items by law abiding means.
