Akwa Ibom Budget = N530 billion









Katsina state budget = N114 billion





Apabio wor wor no be small

redsquare: But seriously,why is it that most Yoruba peeps especially those on NL do not see anything good when it comes to development in other regions be it SS,SE,MB etc. This is not a case of party rivalry (ACN vs PDP) but a clear case of jealousy. I'm not trying to defend Akpabio (afterall the Water Project doesn't look World Class) but are similar projects in other parts of the country any better? Akpabio when compared to his contemporaries has done marvellously well and should be commended.

Can't you see that there is hardly even a middle class in akwa ibom to fight for akpabio's corner here on nairaland.
The fact is that the guys is running the state like a personal business.
His understanding of the word "development " is twisted upside down.
And even if there are ibomites on nairaland,many of them know in their minds that what we are saying is true.
Governance is not just about noise and roads.
It has a lot to do with the little stuffs you do not see everyday until you have to use.
I am rooting for the akwa ibom peopke pall the way but I dislike this apkabio guy
Whenever I hear him speak,i see the despot of Equatorial Guinea .same style ,same mentality ,
Same attitude.empty barrels. .

Fight with pigs? Please we too sophisticated for such. When we see a thread sincerely seeking to know the development strides of Akwa Ibom , we would graciously help in promoting such cause with pictures. Non of us would glorify Eko Ile and this mischievous thread with pictures . He can rant from now till next year but it won't change the truth on ground and how the citizens and international community see their governor

And to even think that some people actually believe that the above pictures is all a government did in the area of water supply, shows how intellectually low they are because even the pictures clearly states mini-water works by direct labour.

^^^^Until someone supplies the pics to the contrary, those of us in this thread who have never been to Akwa Ibom, will believe Eko Ile's pictorial account.

Why shouldn't we?

The fact that no one is coming up with pics ....only SUPPORTS Eko Iles case, actually.

Someone should put @Eko ile to shame and post pictures to discredit him.....at least a link naa. Don't let him run amok on NL.

Eko Ile:


They do of course, they are right below..

South Easterners and South Southerners are all becoming fraudsters... We need someone to put a stop to the ra.pe and impunity going on in these two regions.

I'm a yoruba and I know only a dummy will take Eko ile serious ....Fact is Akpabio has performed below expectation but there are some SW governors that has not performed at all ..Go to Osun state and see the 'nonsense' AregbeRascal is doing there ....

t-something:

What other truth exists on the ground that we don't know about or that Apabio himself did not proudly put on his website with his pictures?


Btw, those are not mini water works, they are boreholes and nothing but a sad refection of lousy leadership, incompetency and financial mismanagement of N530 billion budget..

EKO OLE and ALL the ACN/ACP paid laptop dogs there are threads on nairaland that is exposing your paymasters.

Lagos: Water, water everywhere; non to drink

…Only 10 percent of residents access portable water…
“Cold pure water! Fine pure water!” shouts a girl hawking drinking water on the streets of Lagos, a bustling metropolis almost completely surrounded by water.

This shout echoes out in all towns and many villages across Africa’s most populous country and the continent’s largest oil producer.

These small cellophane water bags – unlike tap water – are readily available, and come chilled.

Water experts say that they are anything but pure, but that means nothing to the millions of Nigerians who have no access to good, clean water.

Lagos is the unofficial headquarters of the “pure” water industry and has many fans.

“It is neatly presented and easily available. In Lagos it is much more dangerous to take tap water than pure water,” an enthusiastic customer explains.

Detractors complain, however, that pure water producers – who are meant to drill boreholes and purify the water privately – pilfer the water from state water pipes.

Until some years ago, these pipes reached woefully few areas of the city.

But the chief executive officer of the Lagos Water Corporation, Olumuyiwa Coker, says things are slowly improving since he’s come to the helm of the state authority.

“Right now we have 50% coverage. We expect that in the next 10 years that should increase to between 70%-80%. What we inherited four of five years ago was really a sector that was virtually comatose,” he says.

Epileptic electricity
Lagos’s first potable water supply plant was established at Iju, more than 80 years ago. Today the city’s population – an estimated 20million – has far outstripped the production capacity of the Iju Waterworks.

So with only half the population having potable water – and that’s when the pumps are working – have state authorities simply being ignoring the problem?

Not more than 10 per cent of Lagos’s resident have no access to potable water

It appears not: a much bigger second plant to boost supply has been built at Adiyan, reputed to be the biggest in Africa. “This plant was commissioned in 1991 to produce 70million gallons per day,” Production Manager Mustapha Olajide Agiri says.

“Technically there is no problem. Our major constraint is with the power supply, as on average we only get about 16 hours a day.”

Indeed, at both Iju and Adiyan waterworks, it is the epileptic electricity supply from the national energy company that is hampering production and bumping up costs. They have to resort to diesel generators which, officials say, makes the production very expensive.

Money matters
As far as the public is concerned, however, the main water problem, apart from insufficiency, is its quality. But the production engineer at Iju Waterworks is adamant that his plant meets international standards.

“It has good stability and a pH of 7.0, which is one of the best in the world. The quality of the water we pump is comparable even with Europe,” Ehunmi said.

He explains that the colouring found in tap water in many areas is a result of contamination in the pipes laid by consumers to take the water into their premises.

The UN’s target to halve the number of people without safe drinking water by 2015 is something the Lagos Water Corporation is committed to, Mr Coker says.

“Essentially what it entails is increasing our infrastructure to probably twice the size it is now by 2015. But to do this, the corporation needs resources, which is unlikely to be forthcoming from the state government and other sources of revenue such as the participation with the private sector are being considered. We need between $1.8bn to $2bn in the next 10 years to actualise these goals”, he says

As in so many other sectors, it is the availability of funds that will eventually decide whether or not the people of Lagos beat poverty and get good, safe drinking water in 10 years’ time.

Government both at the Federal and State levels and the Private sector have been at the fore front of providing portable water for the populace. Nigeria Water and Sanitation Association, NIWASA, is the umbrella body for water Engineers and Sanitation expert in Nigeria.

At a stakeholders forum to sensitize residents of Lagos West Senatorial District, last week, the Technical committee for the development of the water supply and sanitation sector policy for Lagos state, disclosed that only 2.1 million out of about 20 million residents of the state have access to portable water daily. This represents some 10 per cent of the residents.

It is worthy of note that the state government, through the Lagos Water Corporation, LWC, has three major water works: Iju, Adiyan and Isasi works and 48 mini schemes scattered across the state. It has also completed the construction of the Ota-Ikosi Water Works that will be commissioned later in the year. When fully in operation, it is expected to increase the total installed water production capacity for the state to 900 million litres per day. These are expected to provide water sufficiently for 8 million residents of the state.

Over 70 per cent of houses in Lagos lack public water supply. The major source of water is through boreholes and wells while other residents patronises water hawkers, known as “Merua” who sell at exorbitant prices.

Those who can not afford them trek long distances to fetch water from public taps or get cheaper water vendors. One of the unwholesome practices is that in some cases desperate residents go for any burst water pipe, no matter the location to get water for their domestic needs. Some of the pipes are located in the gutters, refuse sites among others.

^^^ over 70 percent of houses in lagos lacks portable water according to lagos state water cooperation, and ACN goons are talking about water works in Akwa ibom.
FSU na you biko,thanks for exposing this goons. Death to ACN propaganda.

THEY THINK they are talking to ppl that are not informative, or those that dont travel. whereas everybody knows that the yorubas hardly move out of their enclaves. nonsense. next tym they start this trype of thread....................

Kudos to Eko Ile, you opened our eyes to the sham going on in Akwa ibom in the name of developmental projects. It is amazing that Akwa Ibomites on nairaland cannot give us the pictures and location of the achievements of Governor Godswill Akpabio but only resort to insults, innuendos and personal attacks. Nigerians are completely blinded by Tribalism, religion and other primodial sentiments, so much so that we are happy to be ra.ped as long as it is done by my own person.


If someone wants to scrutinize the performance of fashola and other can governors' why not open a thread for that, instead of mixing up issues. please note that I am not a fashola supporter as I believe most of his "achievements are over exeggerated. The mini water works in Ikrodu is just addition of a bore hole and some aluminium tanks to an existing water works. But as I said this thread is about Akpabio and not Fashola.


The internet has given us the opportunity to confirm or dispel lies of "world class achievements" by our governments, so please use it.
