Ebsu ranks 5th in the first 5 state Universities in Nigeria and 60th or 56th in general (Not sure)

Ebonyi represented Nigeria in 2009,2013 international debate Qatar and Turkey.

There's a debate called "Governor Elechi's debate" in Ebonyi. He's the overseer.

Ebonyi's health sector is very active too. Heard of mother and child care initiative(MCC1 )
His wife supervises it. its for polio control and eradication and problem associated with maternity.

Ebonyi ain't doing bad in education sector likewise the health sector. Just that a lot of people still hold on to the old belief that It's just another village. There aren't much infrastructure but feeding is hardly a problem in Ebonyi.

How exactly do you qualify an active health care sector? Is it general hospitals in their deplorable state of dereliction? The lack of common paracetamol in a so-called secondary institution? abeg leave matter!

Most of the work in the health are being done by NGOs now: MAPS, FHI, IHVN, etc.

The area I can score the old man is in staff welfare. Compared with other states, Ebonyi State is not too bad.

achi4u: Point noted.
But could you please expatiate more on the issue of "Ebonyians should open their minds"-(ur words),because the last time I checked many none indigenes hold so many position in Ebonyi state.

Our commissioner for commerce and industry Dr. Ifeanyi Ike is from Adazi in Anambra state and he is performing well.You hadly know he's not from the state.
One of our former house member Dr. Abia Onyeike is also from another state.
So,how do you want us to open our minds again?
There's no discrimination here in Ebonyi state in all levels, once you can deliver to any of the position you are needed the government will not hesitate to employ you.

With those examples I cited above can any of our sister state do the same to none indigent? ...

We don't have time for tribalism here that's why many ppl sees us as a different ppl from igbo stock.
We are still the poorest state in the s.east that's why we need every hand to build up.

I don't want us to over flog this issue. My point is clear. That Nigercem must not GO AND DIE. Btw, Ebonyi is not poor mind you. You need to come off this old mentality nwanne. Though much needs to be done but the state of today can still hold its own anywhere.

Let me also add that quite commendable is the support being given to mission hospitals, well over 2billion.

Ok.
We are still on the same track. Anything they can do to revive that company will be highly acceptable.

way to go bro

Ngozi u are a blessing to Ndigbo.

stay kool.

I have thought of the same abt u too. stay kool

I was posted to Ebonyi state for national service. Although I stayed in Abakaliki for about a week after I left camp and didn't have enough time to move around, I intend to do some sight seeing when I return after the xmas holiday. I intend to start a small business but I'm short of ideas, please I need help esp from those who are staying/ have stayed in Ebonyi.

If our tourism potentials were tapped properly, one would expect to see tourists and holidaymakers going on boat rides or fishing trips on the river.....looks like there will be some nice fresh-water fish in there waiting to be caught!

most Wonderful. Talk about greenry

Such scenic beauty!
These lakes and surrounding lush vegetation will have to contend with Enugu's much-talked about soft green hills, and valleys. And I think Ebonyi will come out looking good.
See how the clear waters mirror the sky!
I really wish Elechi will infuse more funds into tourism.

taharqa2: Really? Are you sure about this Bros??...

this is so not true.

achi4u: You understand it that way because you are informed patterning to the crisis btw Ezza and eziulo not even Izzi, now hw about those who are ignorant of what happened or what is happening?

The infrastructure am talking about us well spread out to all the 13 LGAs,thus all the communities that were been cutoff by Ebonyi river are now interconnected with high quality bridges.
Am not here to praise Gov Mathin Elechi because he's nt saint but with the little revenue he generate plus the megare peanut FG do throw to the state seems to be well manage unlike the formal gov Egwu who only share the money with his gang and be partying till all the ebsu chicks will be smiling to their bank the next day.lol

You can travel to any part of the state with well tied road except some few who are under construction.
Electricity is relatively ok like any other part of the country.

The water project is of African standard because of the quality of pipes been used.

All in all Elechi is trying.

You are praising Elechi?

nice one

ebonyi rich in agriculture

And you forget they has crude oil too.....

Natural Resources[edit]
Ebonyi is primarily an agricultural region. It is a leading producer of rice, yam, potatoes, maize, beans, and cassava in Nigeria.[citation needed] Rice and yams are predominantly cultivated in Edda, a region within the state.[citation needed] Ebonyi has several solid mineral resources, including lead, crude oil, and natural gas, but few large-scale commercial mines. The state government has, however, given several incentives to investors in the agro-allied sector to encourage production.[citation needed] Ebonyi is called "the salt of the nation" for its huge salt deposit at the Okposi and Uburu Salt Lakes.[c

pm me if you are serious

The higher the proportion of alumina, the higher the temperature necessary to form the glassy ceramic bonding (vitrification) materila which characterizes ceramic products (Mark, 2010). The clays have low titanium oxide values. This enhances its use and meets the requirements of 0.3 % for ceramic materials (Murray, 2007).

BENEFICIATION

The studied clays are generally comparable with the industrial standards and reference samples which make them useful as ceramic materials. However, the studied clays are amenable to beneficiation through the following procedures:

This includes the removal of fine grained kaolinite from coarser silica, feldspar and mica using various settling velocities. Kaolinite is mostly observed in the fine fraction; hence beneficiation can be done by simple separation. The process starts with the immersion of the kaolinite-bearing rock sample in water in an attrition cell. This is done with a heavy duty lab stirrer rotating consistently for a particular duration of time. Initially, when separation is being done, the aim is to remove all the materials coarser than 250µm (mostly quartz and feldspar). The second stage involves pumping the <250µm clay slurry into hydro-cyclones for the next process of
