Abia Distributes 202 Cars To Youths by MRBENZENE(m): 1:30am On Dec 12, 2013 |
In continuation of its Youth Empowerment Programme, the Abia State Government has given out 202 different brands of vehicles to Abia youths for the fourth phase of the programme. This brings to 700, the total number of vehicles so far given out by the government to the youths since the inception of the programme about a year ago. Speaking while handing over the vehicles to beneficiaries at the Michael Okpara Auditorium, Umuahia, the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Chief Emma Nwabuko explained that the programme was designed to better the lots of youths in the state. Nwabuko also explained that the vehicles which were branded and registered by the government were always given free of charge. According to him, the gesture was not only to make Abia youths gainfully employed but to be useful to themselves and the society. In his remarks, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Youth Affairs and Development, Prince Maduka Uwadi asked the beneficiaries not to use the vehicles for commercial purposes, resell or deface them, warning that any person caught going against the guidelines would have his vehicle withdrawn. Uwadi announced that the fifth batch of the exercise would hold before the end of December. Meanwhile, two prominent Abia indigenes have donated 20 vehicles to the scheme. in support of Abia State Government’s-owned Ochendo Youths Empowerment Programme headed Mr Chinedu Orji. The vehicles were donated by Friday Nwosu, who gave five Sienna vehicles and Chief Uche Ogah of Masters Energy, who gave 15 Passat cars. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/12/abia-distributes-202-cars-youths-2/ |

Idi Amin: I never believed any good thing can still come out of Abia govt. However, is car distribution the new trend in south Eastern govtsIf you look very well, the cars were distributed to friends of the friends of the Government. That is how Abia works. Also this is good way to launder money before the end of Ochendo's tenure in 2015. 5 Likes |

I really want to weep for my state. God, what did we do to deserve this kind of leadership? What can I say? Other nations of the world are looking in the direction of micro businesses,cottage industries etc. My state is busy buying cars in the name of "empowerment " Lord, one day you'll remember us and deliver us from this bondage.

MR BENZENE:Can the above be explained? A government giving out free cars to 200 youths not to be used for commercial purpose but for what? Giving out such number of cars to them for what? Owning a car by a youth without a job translates to what purpose? Will they use them for kidnapping or political purposes since they have been warned not to use them for any commercial purposes. I think Theodore Orji and his advisers are sick and need to explain further why giving out these cars to the youths if not for political purposes come 2015. 2 Likes |

[b]HOW LONG How long shall our people continue to wallow in poverty while a selected few are getting richer? How long will the president and his household continue to eat #1billion while our people die of starvation? How long shall we continue to suffer and smile? How long shall our federal and state roads continue to kill our people? How long shall our airplanes continue to fall from the skies while several billions are budgeted for the aviation industry yearly? How long will how politicians continue to ethicize everything by using our national dallies which is supposed to be our eyes and ears as weapons for ethnic battle thereby turning us into ethnic bigots? How long shall our senates continue to receive billions as salaries and allowances and continue to make laws that favor them and their friends? How long will our Judges continue to collect money and influence decisions to favor the highest bidder? How long will our police continue to kill innocent citizens in the name of involuntary discharge, you also see our police and soldiers smoking Indian hemp in public places. How long will our soldiers continue to punish innocent citizens that wear camouflage but cannot fight Boko haram to a standstill? How long will INEC continue to promise us free and fair election but still end up rigging the same election? How long will our pastors and imams continue to extort us in the name of tithe and offerings? How long will foreigners continue to enslave us in our own country? How long will our telecommunication giants continue to deduct money when we recharge our phones with our hard earned money and still provide quack services to us? How long will it take us to understand that PDP, APC, APGA, LP, PPA and all political parties in Nigeria are all the same? How long will our lecturers continue to demand for sex and money in exchange for marks and at the same time go on strike for not being paid for doing nothing? Our hospitals are in shambles and our politicians fly off to other countries with better Medicare to receive treatment for their headache and stomach aches while our people die of serious sicknesses. When did it get to this? Where are we heading with this? There is so much going on that if I continue; we might not have an end to this piece. You see a girl of 15 years dating a boy of 18years.for Christ sake, what are they supposed to gain from such relationships? A house divided can never stand, Nigeria is our home. We need to come together as a nation to fight these things, we need a revolution or one day we might have no country to call ours. God bless us all God bless the federal republic of Nigeria.

L.M Ayedun..:If the youths cld use the cars as cabs, @ least that's a job but the post said, the youth are warned not to use d cars for commercial purposes or sell... So they're not turning them into cab drivers but rather getting the jobless youths confused of what to do with the car gifts...P |

Teacher and other workers are being own in abia state. This is the money that would have been used to pay workers but the governor is rubbing peter to pay paul. The commissioner said that the car should not be used for commercial or they will be withdrawn, but at the same time he said it is youth empowerment programme. I ask do u empower a person who will use the cars for private use, since they are instructed not to use the car for comercial purpose. Ironically most of the cars are use for comercial transport which i have even entered. May be the commisioners head is retarded like his boss. The retarder in-charge of Abia state knows he had failed comparing him with what Imo State , Enugu state governors are doing just to mention but few life changing social ammunities being put in place, but pacifing the angry abias with wash wash the more u look the less u see, sharing of cars free. We the abians know that the retarder governor is sharing the second hand cars to family members and friends. EFCC , ICPC and those communities their properties where forcefully acquired without compensation are waiting for you on 2015. Ibori is cooling of in dungion. Olabode George can tell better. We are waiting till then. |

I agree that the move is a DUMB ONE but to say Abia and Ebonyi are hardly educated and lacks human resources is a DUMB STATEMENT from you. You should be wiser than this. The govt ought to focus on cleaning up the state (they have a very poor waste management system, refuse heaps block the roads while vehicles have to squeeze themselves via narrow pot-hole infested 'tracks'). Good roads, electricity (national wahala, I know) and good health care system should be of a greater priority to the govt than cars. What was the criteria of selection sef? I guess "friends of the friends of the govt" |

It is time this nation start applying Chinese laws whereby any corrupt leader found guilty be executed. This is madness and stupidity at the highest level of governance. This was a man brought out from prison and to become a governor. ONLY in Nigeria that a convict becomes a leader. ONLY in Nigeria convicts are celebrated. ONLY in Nigeria leaders steal with impunity. ONLY in Nigeria that leaders become cannibals and murderers. ONLY in Nigeria that political office holders become kidnappers. I weep for this country and I pity Abia people for they have been sold to the devil known as Theodore Orji as a governor. |
