ReplyDeleteJuly 9, 2012 9:45 PM and you think others would not join you ehhh....
ReplyDeleteHow senseless can u get, saying people who live on the mainland and work on the island should just get a job on the mainland.
ReplyDeleteSo because there are diversions on the bridge causing difficulty, people should change jobs as if it is as easy as changing underwear? Wake up on time; what is on time? 3 am?You obviously have no clue what working in the city is at all as u probably don't. if you have nothing to say, just shut up abeg. Stupid advice.
July 9, 2012 9:45 PM what nonsense are you saying and you think others would not do the same ehhh
ReplyDeletethey for kukuma close the entire island make nobody enter am
ReplyDeletehow does ogbeni fashola go to work na helicopter im dey use

All these idiots saying one should wake up early to get to work or get jobs on the mainland, I have one question for you guys.....Were you dropped on your head as a baby???
ReplyDeleteIf you do not understand what it entails to get a job or the physical and mental distress people undergo to wake early and come home late, then do us all a favor and shut your traps!
It is painful enough to go through this diversion torture, reading these stupid posts makes it even worse!
