@ Anonimi, that is a propaganda pic of the monorail you put up their. that was when construction was still ongoing. that monorail was a well conceived one that will help to tackle the traffic problem in PH.
that was how they criticized spiff over the head bridge in mile 1 in the 60's insinuating it was too expensive and needless as at the time. but guess what every body is enjoying that fly over as I speak. the whites normally have 50yrs and above developmental plans for their cities that is why their cities are the way they are.
for your info monorail is a noble project started by Rotimi Amaechi of which the 1st phase was completed by him even though the private partners who augth to contribute over 80% of the total cost pulled out due to political interest.

feed your eyes with the current state of the project before Amaechi left office___project with too much quality

ijekul:

As the Judicial Commission of Inquiry set up by the Rivers State Government to probe the sale of valued assets of the state and other matters continued its sitting on Friday, the technical consultant to the state on the monorail project, Arcus Gibbs revealed that  he advised former Governor Chibuike Amaechi against continuing with the project.

Managing Director of Arcus Gibbs Nig Ltd, Wiero Viguezang, however said his company gave the advice only after collecting N22.9bn from the Rivers State Government since its services were enlisted in March 1, 2010.

Viguezang spoke when he appeared before the commission to explain the role played by his company in the monorail project being probed by the commission.

While being cross-examined by counsel to the commission, Dr. Zaccheus Adangor, Viguezang, stated that the monorail project was no longer tenable considering the shortfall in the state’s revenue and the inability of its original technical and equity partners, TSI Nig Ltd, headed by the former military administrator of Rivers State, Brig-Gen Anthony Ukpo (Rtd.), to fulfil its obligations to contribute 80 per cent of its equity holdings.

He disclosed that the state owes his company N1.1bn for its services.
He also said the company had in a letter to the Rivers State through the ministry of transport, in April, made a six-point recommendation to the Rivers State on how to unbundle the monorail project in such a way that the state government can salvage some financial benefits out of the N33.9bn so far invested in the project. The monorail project was originally estimated to cost about Euros2250m.

The technical partner had in its sixth point of recommendation suggested to the Rivers State Government to unbundle the monorail project and approach the manufacturers of the mechanical components and rail tracks in Germany and exploit the possibility of reselling components at a lower price to the manufacturers.

He said the company also advised the state government to consider the option of using the monorail facilities for other commercially viable purposes, mentioning the spaces between pillars and surrounding areas of the monorail project, stressing that the area between Azikiwe Road and the UTC axis could be put into very fruitful commercial purpose.
Viguezang also told the commission that his company and the state government had planned to unveil the monorail project last April specifically to mislead the people of Rivers State into thinking that the project, which has gulped N33.9bn, was still on course.

He admitted that his company wrote a memo to the commissioner for transport to arrange the unveiling of the project essentially for media coverage since the project was “technically uncompleted”. 

According to Viguezang, “We actually wrote to the ministry of transport in January, to arrange for the governor to unveil the monorail project in April for the attention and coverage of the media based on the expectation of the people of the state.”

When asked to clarify if the unveiling was to deceive the people of Rivers State into believing that the controversial monorail project was ready, Viguezang admitted; “It was to deceive the people into believing that the monorail project was at last ready”.

The managing director, however, stressed that “apart from the media coverage and public attention that it is expected to generate, the monorail was not technically and commercially ready. Only phase 1a within phase 1 of the project was ready. So, there was no way the public would have been able to use the monorail as at April when we asked the ministry of transport to unveil the project to the media”.

Viguezang admitted that the Rivers State government enlisted services of Arcus Gibbs at the cost of N600 million from March 1, 2010 to December 1, 2010, after the memorandum of understanding (MoU) with TSI collapsed because TSI could not raise revenue to fulfil the payment of its 80 per cent equity share capital.

He stated that part of its role as the technical service provider to the Rivers State government concerning the monorail project was to evaluate and assess the activities of TSI and give an independent opinion to the Rivers State government.

Dollarization Of The APC Primaries: How Amaehi Vanquished Atiku #saibuhari

The blogosphere was inundated with reports of the excessive sharing of dollars at the All Progressives Congress which took place during the latter part of last week.

One APC supporter and Special Adviser to Osun Governor on Environment, BolaIlori had blown the scandal open after he saw the beginning stages of the dollarization in action.

He took to his Facebook page and scribbled, “Crazy things are happening here!!! Some of these cannot represent the change Nigeria is yearning for. Excessive dollarization by one of the aspirants to is to say the least obscene. I have been involved in political process for decades now, I have never witnessed this volume of raw dollarization of party primaries. I only read about this kind of things in PDP primaries. A question been asked by conscientious delegates is that whoever can be giving out between $2000 to $5000 to…delegates certainly does not represent the kind of change Nigerians want…those who contributed to the pauperization of Nigeria now revel in dollarization… majority of Ondo delegates are still standing with Buhari but have been reduced from 85% to 70% within 24 hours…the remaining has gone with dollars ooo.!!!!!”

One has to wonder how Buhari was able to win the primaries in this era of stomach infrastructure where dollars are like the Biblical manna that God sent down from heaven to nourish the Israelites as they made their way to the promised land.

Sources close to the APC with knowledge of the way the Primaries unfolded have revealed that it was Rivers State Governor, Amaechi who flew back to Rivers State and returned to Lagos on Thursday morning with enough dollars to make Benjamin Franklin blush.

It has been revealed that Atiku offered the delegates $5000 each, but Amaechi doubled it to $10000 a pop. Thus turning the tables in favour of General Buhari.

Since his adventure into the APC, Amaechi has gone out of his way to prove himself a party loyalist, always the first to shoki or azonto at the many events the APC holds, which he himself is usually the chief sponsor.

According to party insiders, Amaechi has overtaken Tinubu as the major financier of the party. One does not need to wonder why he is always at President Jonathan’s throat over misappropriated oil wells or other such business. Anything that diminishes from the State’s coffers will have a ripple effect on his funding budget for the APC.

Do I look like a Bro to you? Name 4 projects completed in Rivers State by him leave others out. Should we talk about the cement pillars littering PH reminding the citizens that the billions put into the Monorail project got PMB elected? Stop this your fantasy nothing is hidden in this age and time.
Lying liars very shameless!

omenka:
Typical demonic lie from a Jonathanian.

Even Theodore Orji and Gabriel Suswam completed at least two projects. It is on record they were the worst governors.

You should be the one who should be ashamed.

And yes, he's an amiable minister. Go to hell if that hurts you bro.

MadCow1:



My brother.. The part of hell fire wey dey wait you for this lie wey you lie so ehn, even Devil sef go pity you.

You said Amaechi did not complete 1 project in 8 years?

May the devil have mercy on your lying soul.

Bitterleafsoup:

So in 8 years this man has not one completed project in Rivers and in your head he is amiable?

omenka:
Go to these threads and cure your ignorance- or do I say, hatred.

Aresa should have even more pictures.

Shame on you.

Bitterleafsoup:
please stop this your glorifying evil.
Model school is just that no student has stepped foot in any of those schools. Health facilities without equipment na wash! Why are you including past projects started by other administration before him. 8 years and trillions of DOLLARS allocation and nothing to show for it. You people are easily fooled I don't blame you! I hope you read the comments of Rivers State people in those links?

Teobaba:
Amaechi is and remains a leader by example, He was my governor and the years he ruled us, We saw true governance, Wailing wailers stop wail

prophetfire:
you are telling a big lie and you know it.

omenka:
Tufiakwa!!!

MadCow1, our friend has released another exclusive oo!! Come check this one out- even more audacious than the first!

omenka:
Obviously, a fan of his took the pictures and they made their way to cyberspace.

Even the poster herself says the pics are "exclusive to viviangist", meaning either her or one of her co-workers took the pic.

Watch how those who roll out the drums when they see that thugnor cutting kpomo take swipes at our amiable minister.

Come what may, this is no big deal to me.

Bitterleafsoup:
shame shame shame go catch you!
So in 8 years this man has not one completed project in Rivers and in your head he is amiable?

Symphony007:
He is not fooling the average Nigerian, he is fooling his fellow brainless APC robots. Flew into port harcourt on a private jet, pic went online and condemnation pour in and all of a sudden you are leaving on a commercial jet and magically the pictures appears online. Government of propaganda, by propaganda for propaganda.
