Ibeto has not used the opportunity well. I was in Nnewi 4 months ago and I stayed one full month at home. Ibetos trucks were just packed.

I know he might be having issues but I think he should learn how to comprise. He had problem with OBJ now Buhari something must be wrong somewhere.

As long as he is doing strong head he cannot get his goal. And this is how it is done around the world. Example in Russia, if you are not in good books of Putin, no business for you. Roman Abramovich understand this, that is why he is loyal to Putin.

Even Aliko Dangote one thing I like about him is that he is humble and loyal. A friend of mine went to a party Dangote attended.. When Aliko came in he went to the kitchen to greet people in the kitchen. Very simple Man. The man doing the birthday was an Igbo and my friend also was Igbo.

ibeto is still on the game... who told you multiple firms can't build their plants at the same time for same product...they all know the limestone in Ebonyi is heavily abundant

Tushkito:
very nice if true, where is ibeto sef?

Jlow2:
Na today, a banquet was held to welcome ibeto an co prior to 2015 election , four years gone no sign of a single bag of cement from ebonyi state, despite enormous deposit of minerals in ebonyi state the major problem is its people the suffer from poverty of the mind, once an outsider comes to invest in there communities, they govt and pple turn it to an avenue to rip u off to the last kobo, imagine payin 300k as task to ebonyi state govt for a truck of lead or zinc u buy, thats after you have registered with the state govt with over 700k, in other parts of the country were all dis minerals re found u pay not more than 50k to govt as revenue, and not more than 20k to host community as royalty, but in ebonyi state everything is different, dey give you a clearance which expires after 24hours, if your truck does not leave the state btw thst time frame, yoh will pag another 300k not minding if the truck got spoilt, so mr bua ur not the first but we hope u succeed

Don't say what you don't know. Do you know how many acres of land(MINES) that a cement company will use to extract it's raw materials? And an estimated year the raw materials will be exhausted before moving to another reserved location? Don't say what you don't know please.. you will end up looking stupid.

Northerner investing in the SE; I just hope he would live to regret it, because once the venture starts becoming successful; wait and watch as how the jingoistic hatred and jealousy of those ppl would cause them to sabotage it - they would soon be looking for reasons why the company should not be owned or headed by a non-indigene.

Abdulsamad Isiaka Rabiu, I just pray you are not making a mistake.

If the environment is not harsh which sane business man will park his trucks

Government should learn to separate business from politics if they actually want to create jobs and move this country forward!!!

Besides OBJ invested in Dangote!

Everything mustn't be about politics

Everybody cannot like you! It is not possible forget Indian movie!!!

Loyalty, trust and great friendship is earned!!!

Guy,you sound truthful and objective.let me ask you to honestly analyze buhari's chances in your state

murphyibiam15:

same reason Apga is weak in Enugu.... Both states are the reason PDP is said to be a core party in the SE

djon78:



Go and ask Dangote where he sells a huge volume of his cement? BUA wants to take a good position in Eastern cement market demand which is very high. Cement demand in the East is a very lucrative market.

djon78:


I have said Buhari will win 2019 except God said otherwise. during last Governor election, APC came second beating even PDP. So he will get good votes from east.

BUA Group on Wednesday said it was commencing core drilling in Ebonyi preparatory to establishing a cement plant in the state.
The Group Managing Director of the company, Kabiru Rabiu, announced this in Abakaliki, the state capital, when he led the management team of the firm on a visit to Governor Dave Umahi.
Mr. Rabiu expressed surprised that the state has no functional cement factory despite having enormous limestone deposit.
Limestone is the major raw material used in the production of cement.
Mr Rabiu further noted that coal, a necessary energy needed for cement production is also in abundance in the state.
He noted that the state was also strategically located for cement production.
“We are planning to set up a cement plant here in Ebonyi state,” the nusinessman said. “The state is actually the host of the first cement plant in Nigeria, the NIGERCEM but it is quite surprising that today there is no single operational cement plant not only in Ebonyi state but in the entire eastern part of Nigeria.
“We are here because the state is blessed. It has a huge deposit of limestone which is very high in quality. The state also has coal which is a necessary energy needed for cement production.
“The state is strategically located; it is close to Enugu, close to Cross River State, close to the Middle Belt. I mean the local government where these deposits are located is very close to Benue, which is in the Middle Belt.
“Your Excellency, when we were coming into the state, we saw a road being built with concrete (concrete road) by your administration which goes along way to show your commitment to infrastructure and we also found out about the development of the ring road which is also about 150kms and we learnt that it is going to be built by concrete.
“So, naturally, the state is a market itself not only being positioned in a strategic location but also a large consumption of cement is going to be undertaken by the zone.
“We are really excited about the state, about the location, about the quality and the volume of the limestone you have for cement production here in Ebonyi State.”
Responding, Governor Umahi assured the group of total support by providing enabling environment for the company to operate.
He said the state was proposing a law to protect investors in the state.

Your righr.even abia thats pdp,apga is strong there.apga is the best for the ibos.i believe an average ibo man loves apga except precision fixed

murphyibiam15:

ibeto is actually the first person to move in and he's Igbo...

mind you NIGERCEM in Ebonyi was the first and largest cement factory in the whole of west Africa

devil working, in 5yrs ebonyi will be more developed than rivers .

ItsMeAboki:


Dangote is clever; note he didn't make huge investment in infrastructure, like establishing a production factory as proposed by BUA; but mere sales depots for his finished products; ready whenever the going gets tough to easily pack and go - he is quite mindful of how often his trucks are targeted and burnt at the slightest opportunity of trouble in Igboland.

blackgold2018:
No bro I don't think so because the largest Cement Plant in Africa is situated in kogi state owned by Dangote and kogi state is still one of the underdeveloped states in Nigeria.

colossus91:
the so called issue u mentioned has been addressed sir I'm from ebonyi I know about the payment but a consensus was reached by the govt and the miners si

BelovedBuhari:
Baba Buhari has sent Abdulsamad to go and invest in Ebonyi, all because of his padi Umahi.

God Bless you Baba. Rule us till 2023
