PapaBrowne: To be fair to Uduaghan, he seems to have woken up in his second tenure.

solomon111: Sorry,these projects are rubbish.
What uduaghan should be creating with the huge resources at his disposal are light-rails,seaports,petrochemical plants, refineries,e.t.c.
And all these projects can be PPP driven.
Seriously,delta state should go and lobby for a pat utomi.
Poorer states are doing far better than the present delta state.
The mediocrity is just too much.
