Hope they are not building place of refuge for boko haram

TrueLegend:
LOL...if d rest of d country refuses to vote jonathan,,,they can start looking for new ways to sustain d economy,bcoz no oil barge wud sell a barrel from d Niger delta,,,Boko haram spoilt d economy of d north,,,but Mend's new attack wud shut down d economy of Nigeria,,,

Stop deceiving your self, boko-haram thrived because the President let it. If Jonathan loses the election and someone starts destroying pipelines because of it, its the local communities that will suffer it. If Jonathan loses, oil will flow and there will be regular vandalism like it use to be. But life will go on. Militants, soldiers and civilians will get killed, but oil will flow. live.

i love this man

okpaniokpani: In other climes where organizations have priorities, military and security outfits don't invest in business not related to their field. Of what use is the hotel to the stated objectives of the Nigerian Army? The Nigerian Army has a defunct pharmaceutical company, why not revive it, if his aim is to diversify revenue?
Besides, the Nigerian army is suffering from acute shortage of accommodation fro officers and personnels. Why not expand the infrastructures in the barracks?
This an excuse to squander resources. Every barrack has a mess which provides temporal accommodation for officers and personnels on transit.
Why build a hotel?

Gen. Ihejirika's idea is without precedents and successful ones for that matter. In an ever decreasing world of conflicts, the military around the globe are trying to expand their scope of objectives which includes but not limited to running corporate organizations.

Egypt's Ministry of Military Production manages at least 14 companies - producing merchandise varying from tank shells and ammunition to fertilisers, sports equipment, cement, pasta and even owning child care centers in the face of receiving over 3 Billion Us dollars hand out from the US government every year. So, what is the fuss about the Nigerian army trying to tinker with investments to help her solve her needs in the ever shrinking Nigeria's defence allocation? Gen. Ihejirika has refurbished and/or built new barracks than any of his predecessors. Under his watch, the NA has begun to sell light military wares beyond the borders of Nigeria. It takes a sharp and innovative mind (not the usual drunken "gwodogwodo" Nigerian General) to put in place a corporate strategic investment plan such as this and the ones before this one. Think for a moment please. Don't just type words for the sake of making comments!

Nice one for Enugu and environ.
But why do we refers to these hotels as 5 Star hotels, in truth none of them is close to the standard of a 3 Star hotel in Europe or North America especially Eko Hotels and Federal Palace Hotels.
Maybe we should just tag them 2 Star hotels to compliment their poor architectural standard, no beefing just my observation.

Military Barracks in Disrepair

Lagos, Makurdi, Kano, Damaturu, Abuja, Bauchi, Kaduna — Military barracks across the country are in dire need of rehabilitation and in many cases lack enough accommodation for soldiers in spite of the yearly budgets of billions for barracks repairs, Daily Trust investigations have found out.

Our correspondents, who visited military barracks in Lagos, Kaduna, Kano, Bauchi and other places report that many buildings are in a state of disrepair, with broken doors, windows and leaking roofs.

Some barracks, according to the reports, have not been rehabilitated in 30 years, and on some occasions soldiers are called upon to financially contribute to the repair work.

Lack of enough accommodation at certain barracks forces officers to live in buildings meant for their juniors, sometimes two officers in a room.

This is even as the Federal Government has spent over N11.524 billion on construction and rehabilitation of military barracks last year.

An analysis of the 2012 budget shows that the Defence Headquarters spent N140 million on rehabilitation of barracks, while the Nigerian Army spent N1.9 billion on barracks rehabilitation and N961 million on construction of new ones.

The Navy spent N1.9 billion on barracks rehabilitation and N961 million on construction of new barracks, as the Air Force spent N2.7 billion on rehabilitation and N341 million on constructing new barracks.

Units and commands of the Armed Forces also had hundreds of millions budgeted for barracks rehabilitation. The Nigerian Defence College used N64 million and N25 million for barracks rehabilitation and construction respectively, while the Armed Forces Command and Staff College Jaji spent N132 million on barracks rehabilitation.

For its part, the Presidential Committee on Barracks Rehabilitation spent N2.4 billion on repair of barracks, according to details of the 2012 budget.

People sometimes talk about the
power of first impressions, and
believe me, there is truth to it.

mekaboy: Hmm, Nice one, but never knew the army is out to compete with private sector in business. Soon we will see police building fast food joint, boutique, navy building shopping malls to diversify income.

Anyway, good one.

cjrane: Unless they hand it over to credible hotels management company to manage, it will still end up as a haven for rats and cockroaches if it is left for the army to manage.

come to talk of reality Nigeria Army were the best formation in Nigeria in term of management and discipline.

Chino_Is_Back: Its Okay..

But they should equally bring down to the East major military hardware infrastructures. Ihejirika should brace up, all the key military facilities non is sited in the East. He should decentralized some of this facilities in the north.

You no nothing about the new military strategy in nigeria,go to youtube watch BBC documentary on nigerian army fighting boko harams,their military head quarter in borno state is call ihejirika military head quarter where new recruit train and send off to war front.My brother egwu e change ji go, the documentary says that ihejirika is the man that made it possible he brought a lot of improvement in nigerian military this is why nigerian military is ranking high in africa,have you been to 82 division enugu or calabar? visit enugu 82 div you will not believe your eyes most military hardware is there,to plan military coup it will def fail because without (82 div) the coup will never be successful....

God bless you.
Most of this people ranting about army building a hotel are just envy of anything done by this administration. They want to take us back to the 1st and 2nd republic where thire four fathers mismanaged this country.

Afam4eva:
I agree with you to some extent. But at all at all na him bad. At least the Hotel will add to the IGR of the state and also creat some employment for the natives. But i think Ihejirika should think of setting up an Army school in Enugu or anywhere in the SE.

Truth be told... i can categorically say that COAS (Ihejirika) is the only benefit i ve come close to enjoy in this regime. At the moment, he's eagerly building seriously an Army school in his home town (Ovim Isuikwato) which happens to be my L.G.A in Abia state. Though i am yet to fully know the capacity of this military school but, trust me it's a very large school to behold.
At least my ppl can ve that as a sign of #FreshAir

me_for_you: the air force has a similar facility in kaduna.
ur visit to kaduna cant end if you didnt visit the air force club. live band, nightclub, hotel. wonderful place.

Bro thanks for reminding me the old good days.I folo the nack music for the club. NAF club. I remember the day wey two offifers get beef,they begin fight. Naso the pusue all the bloody civilian wey de inside commot

I hope the army will not see it as avenue opportunity to plan 'COUP' Civillian keep watch!!!,A stitch at a time they say,saves nine.

Am i the only one confused about this private means of making money by the army? Is this what they should be concerned with? Who funds the military of any country? what would they be using the profit of this venture for?
