THE South East Region Economic Development Company, SEREDEC, has announced progress in efforts of the region to develop infranstructure and social services using private sector initiative.

In it’s three years progress report at that the 4th South East Economic Summit in Enugu on Thursday, SEREDEC itemised it’s achievements to include take-off of Enyimba Industrial city, South East rail network, Eastern medical resort hospital, South East Gas pipeline, among others.

SEREDEC under the chairmanship of former minister for power, Prof Barth Nnaji; stated that progress has continued on the Enyimba Industrial city at Aba, Abia state with the federal government formally licencing the project and a Memorandum of Understanding, MoU, entered into with a Chinese Conglomerate.

SEREDEC stated that it has also signed an agreement for railway project with a team of CEOs of major UK infrastructure firm in collaboration with Nigeria based experts in rail development.

The proposed rail network is expected to take off from Onne to Aba; Aba to Ontisha through Owerri; Onitsha to Abakaliki via Awka and Enugu; Aba to Nsukka via Umuahia and Enugu.
On the Gas pipeline, SEREDEC disclosed that it has engaged a team of local and foreign based experts from South East to perform a pre-feasibility study of a looped gas pipeline network that connects all the South East states.

Chairman of the Summit and former MTN chairman, Dr. Paschal Dozie, asked for more re-enforced pool of resources to make South East economically more viable.
Dozie urged political leaders in the region to cooperate and embark on common-interest projects.

“If you want to move fast, you move alone but when you want to get things done, you do it together,” Dozie said.

Former Adviser to the Minister of Power and Team Leader, DFID – Nigeria Infrastructure Advisory Facility, NIAF, Programme 3, Prof Chidi Onyia said that political leaders could look beyond election promises and move to something tangible that would better the zone.

“The issue has never been lack of ideas but for the policy makers to be honest to set up a financing process for the East.

“We should look beyond election promises. If risk exposure is not too much, people will invest. We should move from political sound bite to real implementation,” Onyia suggested.

The question I keep asking is why is it that the rail line didn't crisscross the eastern states as it did in the west and many northern states.

IBOs lacks unity........,the governors and public office holder are not one,the rail delivered to Onitsha will make sense,delta and South west can link up from there.
All past southern President are nothing but fools.
This will teach us a lesson.
But i hope no foolish Northerner will shout marginalization when the return ticket is served like Gen. Buhari is doing now,Lagos-calabar rail was supposed to have been done first before the reconstruction of Lagos_kano,North are selfish,you build lagos -kano rail,portharcourt_maiduguri whe the economic Transportation lies on the East-west road.
Amaechi will regret one day that he let us down in the South..

I'm hearing of SEREDEC for the first time. The last I heard of something similar was South East Development Commission (SEDC) proposed by that Igbo lady (can't remember the name), in Politics Section.

Watch as federal government will rush and stop this plan. Fashola stopped Nnaji from using his Geometric Power technology from supplying Abia power and electricity. Many Igbos still don't know what's going on this country. Your federal roads in SE; where governors and even individuals have written to the ministry of works and housing...allow us to fix this road for free if you don't want to do it, we will pay for it. They say no. Same with Enugu airport, allow us to fix the airport to bring it to Lagos and Abuja level, for free with our money, they say no. Then do it, they refuse.
you don't need to take permission from them, just start work, let's see who will stop it. IMO airport a case study.

20 million Igbo men can contribute at least 100k each annually to turn Igbo land to eldorado... The share/stock initiative is so on point too. You will see some personally invest over a hundred million on this.

It can be done!

Except that the issue with Prof Nnaji happened

1.Under Goodluck Jonathan's regime

2.Fashola was governor of Lagos, not Abia, and not in Government, and the Minsiter of Power was an Igbo man

3.So Goodluck is opposed to Igbos, eh??

4.Prof Nnaji's project was not allowed to take off because of conflict of interest issues....

You just copied my brain, I was expecting him to come up with his fake facts.

I think playing the victim game is a coping mechanism for them.

Whatever we put our minds on we can achieve and surpass..... Yes we can do this even a thousand times more. Pooling resources is already our way of life all we seek is the will to get this done. Thanks to the constant abuse, ridicule and isolation we receive from both the fg and other Nigerians, it is bringing us together and when IGBOS becomes truly one.... We shall be LIMITLESS.

this is the best news I have heard from our land in a long while and when I saw Nnajis name there, I was super excited.

God bless every sons of Ndigbo the conceived this idea. This is what we are talking about.

If they are serious, I am sure every igbos inside and outside Nigeria will contribute to make it happen.
