KoshCAD:
Hahahahaha, he us feeling attacked already.

Zoom those jungle, show me a skyscraper there, I want to see something kikikikikiki

See am self, no green leave cos no space. Just jampack slum.

Skyscraper?
Lol. That is not a measure of development.
Washington has no skyscraper, the same with lots of European cities.

Ok, take this brain stormer. One of these three cities is not in Europe, one is Enugu City, try to spot it out.

One is a European capital (Athens), another the capital of US (Washington) and the other is the most developed city in Nigeria (Enugu). And on incredible fact about them, according to you people, no skyscraper in sight.

Ok, take this brain stormer. One of these two cities is not in Europe, one is Enugu City, try to spot it out.

One is a European capital and one other most developed cities. And one wonder according to you people, no skyscraper in sight.

Yeah the older I get, the less I am obsessed with skyscrapers. I used to consider it a sign of development but it’s really not.

Most European cities don't do skyscrapers. It is a symbol of overpopulation and overcrowding.

Rich people avoid it.

FEGNO:
*The economy of the former Eastern Region was planned from ground up by the US consulting firm Arthur D. Little.*

*Dr. Azikiwe brought them and they worked with M I Okpara at first, then with Sam Otti and later Eluwa who headed the Civil Service and later with Sir Louis Phillip Odumegwu Ojukwu who at the time was the Chairman of the Eastern Nicerian Development Corporation (ENDC) and also the Chairman of the Eastern Nigeria Commodities Board (ENCB)*

Louis Phillip Odumegwu Ojukwu also sat as Chairman of 15 multinational companies at the time - John Holt, PZ, Michelin, Costain, Thomas Wyatt, Guinness, GB Ollivant etc

He was so rich that he single handedly funded the establishment of the Lagos Stock Exchange but refused to list his company there for fear of losing control

His photo still hangs proudly on the floor of that exchange as its first chairman

*Arthur D Little also worked with a coterie of young Eastern Nigerian economists at the time - Pius Okigbo (PhD Northwestern), Ukwu I. Ukwu (PhD Cambridge), Chukwu Sunday Okongwu (PhD Harvard). These young men in their early twenties worked with Arthur D Little to plan our economy from scratch*

I know this because Ukwu I Ukwu taught me at Nsukka and I also worked in Dr Chu SP Okongwu's economic planning firm right during and after grad school in Nigeria.

*Arthur D. Little recommended the setting up of a university in the East to produce key skills needed to drive economic growth as most of those skills were not being taught in Ibadan at the time*

*Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe sent Dr Akpabio (MA Columbia) who at the time was the East's Minister of Education on an extended tour to universities in Michigan and New York for collaboration in key fields like medicine, engineering,, surveying and photogrammetry and business administration.*

*UNN was the first school in Nigeria to offer many of these courses.* Ibadan at the time taught mostly Classics, General Science and later Medicine

*Palm oil, Palm Kernel, Coal, Cocoa (from Ikom), Coffee from Obudu and later petroleum from firstly Izombe - Oguta area and later from Oloibiri in Ijaw land drove the economy of the East*

*In terms of development, the East started late, compared to the West.*

*Development and education had started in Lagos and Abeokuta right after Beecroft occupied Lagos in 1850s and made it a British colony. Lagos and the SW thus had more than a 70 year headstart over the East in terms of total gross capital formation and the platform that it gave for growth.*

*But after the implementation of Arthur D Little's recommended growth plan, the East's economy grew at more than 9.2%, starting from 1958 till 1967 when the war began*

*At over 9%, the Eastern Region in this period, had the fastest growing economy on earth consistently for 9 years and was estimated to equal Western Nigeria by 1978 (in terms of total gross capital formation) and then overtake the Western Region after that.*

The civil war truncated that momentum and the East never recovered after that.

*Louis Philip Odumegwu Ojukwu brought his industrial influence to bear on the growth plan as he singlehandedly pushed for the establishment of not just industrial estates but industrial corridors in the region.*

*An industrial estate is localized. An industrial corridor joins two or more industrial estates to form an industrial conurbation.*

*Industrial estates sprang up across the East TransAmadi in PH.*

*Aba for light industries.*

*Umuahia for biotechnology.*

*Emene in Enugu for steel and industrial automation.*

*Nkalagu, PH and Calabar for cement and building materials.*

*Onitsha as an emporium to drive retail trading.*

*Obudu in Cross River for dairy, holidaying and corporate meetings.*

*Because he was the chairman of 15 multinational companies at the time, he used his influence to compel many of them to buy into the East's industrialization plan.*

*Okpara also partnered with Israel for the setting up of industrial farms and plantations - seedling production, extension services, assistance to farmers etc.*

*So plantations (cashew nuts, palm kernel, cocoa, coffee, timber etc) sprang up in Oghe (Enugu State), Okigwe (Abia State), Obudu, Itumbenuzor, Akamkpa all in Cross River state and in various parts of Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Imo, Abia etc.*

*Okpara personally delivered some of the seedlings himself by driving behind the trucks that did the delivery.*

*Sir Louis Phillip Odumegwu Ojukwu pushed for the establishment of 3 major cement plants in the region - Nkalagu, Eastern Bulkcem in PH and Calabar cement factory in Calabar.*

*Nkalagu and PH opened before the war started in 1967. Everything for the take off of the Calabar cement factory was purchased but the war truncated its take off.*

*In 1970, Governor Esuene of the newly-created Cross River State opened Calcemco plant to the appause of many.*

*Three industrial corridors were planned also planned for the East*

*The Emene-Nkalagu Industrial corridor which was to focus on automobiles, building materials and industrial automation. Kaiser Motors in the US at the time (it has since been acquired) had agreed to build a car plant in Emene and a plant for car engines. That corridor was to stretch for almost 100 miles*

*The second industrial corridor was to stretch between PH and Aba. So industrial centers were set up in Trans Amadi and in Aba and over a ten to 15 year period, these two centers were to be linked by many feeder industries that would be located on the highway joining both cities.*

*Okpara had hoped that over time, the PH-Aba industrial corridor would follow the old road between Port Harcourt and Enugu and join with the Emene - Nkalagu industrial corridor to create a massive industrial cornubation that almost imitates the almost 200 kilometer Ruhr Industrial Valley in Germany built under Chancellor Otto Von Bismarck*

*Onitsha was to drive the East's Retail economy and so the market was built there as an Emporium...to attract buyers from all over Nigeria and West and Central Africa so they could come spend their money in the East.*

*Dubai would copy this same model 50 years later and implement it successfully but on a global scale. Onitsha market achieved its purpose by 1958, two years after the East achieved self government. It became the preferred destination for retail and bulk shoppers from a over West Africa and even Cameroon, Gabon and Congo. This gave the Anambra Igbo a head start in retail trading...an advantage that they enjoy till date.*

*All of these development and growth projects were centrally driven by the Eastern Nigeria Development Corporation - ENDC and the revenues were centrally aggregated into the account of the Eastern Nigerian Commodities Board (ENCB). Both groups were headed by Sir Louis Phillip Odumegwu Ojukwu*

*Funds for development came mostly from 3 sources.*

*1. Local revenues from the export of cocoa(Ikom and Itumbenuzor), coffee (Obudu and Arochukwu), timber (Akamkpa) Coal (Enugu-Udi), Palm oil (Rivers, Imo, Abia), Palm kernel (Rivers, Imo, Abia)*

*2. Direct Foreign Investments*

*3. Loans from Commonwealth Development Corporation (CDC)*

*Umuahia was to midwife the Easts' biotechnology industries which explains why Golden Guinea Brewery and the Root Crop Research Instutute were established there.*

*Obudu because of its pristine hills and its fresh weather was to be a holiday resort for many as well as a primary center for a dairy industry that just started before the war commenced. Obudu Cattle Ranch was the first in a series of investments that got scuttled in Obudu by the war.*

*Lastly, oil was discovered late. Chief Nwodo, Eastern Nigeria's first Minister for Trade (father to the past Ohaneze Chairman) negotiated the first contracts with Shell on a 50-50 investment and sharing basis.*

*Virtually all of the East's oil assets were seized by the Federal Government under Gowon with no compensation paid till date. The Federal Government simply inherited the East's 50% slot and paid nothing for it. Today everyone profits from it*

*Most of the catalytic cracking and downward refineries that NNPC would later build were in the plans that the Eastern Regional Government had for the region.*

*Today, some of those plants are located in far away Kaduna and no mention is ever made of the East.*

*Every Nigerian today depends on that oil to survive including states that claim that they can survive from internally-generated revenues.*

*I believe that rather than whine everyday, we Igbos should sit down and learn our history...take a look at the growth plans that got scuttled in 1967 and see how we can work to together to pick up the pieces and build again from scratch*

*Nnamdi Ezeji*

Wow this is quite very educative I was about commending u for this write-up until I scrolled down to see that u copied it from Nnamdi Ezeji the man must be very old now.

Two of nairalands rabid Igbo haters. Yet, they can't help themselves showing up in every Igbo thread

Chief Pete Edochie aptly explained this phenomenon below!

I been quite busy as the festivities got me really hooked up with loads of solving, all you try to do is waste time trying to impact my credibility but you know what, you are just a rant in a faceless forum, I'm Alex Ogechukwu, who are you, by the grace of God, your children and children's children and onwards would testify on my achievements for the Igbo nation in particular and humanity in general,

The Igbos are great, yet the exceptionalism you guys paint would only impact to satisfy the ego, fools delves overwhelmingly in painting our strength but approaching our weaknesses is what should really matters,

I don't see nobody in all of you who pride in displaying our strength but never work on fixing our weaknesses, you think that I'm bothered by your senseless gimmicks, know it that I don't care about a keyboardist on a faceless forum, get a name becuase you don't exist.

Ibadam is the largest slum in Africa.. A single empty rickety skyscraper does not change that fact. Modern half of ibadam is filled with brown roofs and mud houses..I have been to ibadam and it's a disgrace to itself. The city needs to be brought down by a nuclear bomb and rebuilt from scratch cause it's an eyesore.

For your info,lots of igbo business men have many skyscrapers in Lagos,tony onyedikachi elumelu owner of UBA has UBA tower in CMS Lagos island, obijackson has his nestoil skyscraper in VI, coscharis too has one too in VI plus many of other igbo business owners in Lagos..
