Atouke:


People like you lack knowledge but pretend that they know what's is obvious the dont.

Mention any state in Nigeria that owns its power generating company besides Akwa ibom state via ibom power plant, and mention the power generation company name. So others can verify.

Only rivers state government built power plant but Gov. AMECHI sold them to tonye Cole company.

Others have federally funded or private power companies.
Mini plant / generators that Lagos and cross river state built dont count. As none of them can supply one local government not to talk of the whole state.

Ibom power plant has the capacity that can supply the whole of Akwa ibom, abia, bayelsa and cross river state combined. If the FG was not taking Akwa ibom power to the national grid.

Kinematics:



I leave you with your ignorant hype. It's good to hype but dont spread ignorance in case of hype.

I've read your post all through. It's good you are happy with what your governor is doing in building stadiums, what I dont get is the ignorance you are displaying in several areas of your comment.

It baffles me for someone to be jubilating about 191MW of power generation and stadium.
It's time we start celebrating more meaning achievements in this country. This is 21st century. Things like this should be celebrated by individuals not state.
States are bigger than this mediocrity.

Atouke:


Because I punctured your lies!
This is no hype akwa ibom is reality. There are several countries in Africa that don't have what we have in akwa ibom state. Several countries dont generate even up to 191MW power which is 3 times the electricity needs of akwa ibom.
Most countries in including Nigeria does not have an airline, Akwa ibom state does, it also owns and operates it's own airport.
Most countries dont have sea port Akwa ibom is in the process of building one and most countries dont have stadium like the Godswill Akpabio stadium.
The kind of road network in Akwa ibom is mesmerizing.
To cap it all it has the hydrocarbons to drive its economy.
If Akwa ibom were to be country it will be a great country.
This is not hype but reality.

Bobonowell:

Bros, people in uyo are not complaining of water , you should transfer your effort to your state govt so that they can build roads , and water for your people .

yenereal:


You have missed what to say. If to go and watch match in England you will be the first person. You've forgotten that they started from scratch like this. Simply tell us you aren't a lover of sports. You can watch your Zeeworld or Aljazeera. Any sports-loving person wont criticize what Gov. Udom is doing. Akpabio did same and today, Akwa Ibom has been projected. Do you know how much money is generated to Akwa Ibom State account as a result of sport events held in the State? Next time, reason before you comment thrash Mr. Man.

Nvc078:

you haven't answered my question yet. for the last time ,which cave did you crawl out from?

samuelson06:
White elephant project

benjida:

All the bad roads and pitiable dump sites you call stadium in the south east put together, do not measure up to the so-called cave I crawled out from

Atouke:


AKWA ibom already have 3 standard grass turf.
The Godswill Akpabio stadium and the training pitch.
Ikot Ekpene stadium has grass turf.

So what we need in the new stadium are artificial pitches.
The uyo township stadium is handled by moni Michelle, the company that fixed enyimba, bayelsa, bauchi and onikan stadium pitch. So it will be good.

The Eket stadium will have a standard artificial turf.
This will balance off so if the players are going to be facing opponents that play in grass turf, they can practice in grass, if they are facing and opponents that plays on artificial turf they can also practice on artificial turf.

Presently Akwa ibom state has no artificial turf stadium, but by the end of the year they will have two.

zuto4u:
U are very stupid and insecure. Go to Ebonyi state and see what is going on there. The only glass tunnel bridge in Nigeria and Africa as a whole is in Abakaliki Ebonyi state. Ebonyi now has the best road network in Nigeria, and is about to have the best health care center in Nigeria as well. Ebonyi now has the biggest fountain in Nigeria (and I think in Africa too). And I don't need to remind your dumb head that Ebonyi is among the states that receives lowest allocation from the federal government. I am from Imo state but I now envy Ebonyi state. And there are still multiple world class projects going on there, which include a gigantic shopping mall which will somehow look like Dubai mall, an international cargo airport and many others. At the end of the day, we are all Nigerians, so stop this your nonsensical behavior.

ugom123:


u are simply pathetic! Must u drag igbos in everything? Ur hatred for these people is too much.

Kingrefreshed:

Igbo's are really your night mare! I know you really crave to be an igbo person but it's already too late for you.

Rest in peace my dear friend!

otipoju:


In a normal society,every local government ought to have a stadium .

Most secondary schools in the western world especially USA have their own stadiums

Divoc:



keep limiting yourself by hating the Igbo's(fellow humans)......your type is why black man is still backward.

Rosskiye:


NOT TRUE.

GidiWoodsMan:


you compare Nigeria that lacks functional hospitals with USA.

basic amenities like good schools, fire services, emergency services, hospitals etc have to be in place before stadium in every local government. this is obviously a scam project because there's a similar structure in Uyo already.

juvewalex:
Why this stadium when the state already has a wonderful stadium built by Akpabio in the same state.

It's a waste of resources as far as I'm concerned because they can't maintain them as one will suffer for one.

Myself2:


Yes Akpabio's stadium will suffer for this one. That's the mentality of the Nigerian politician, obviously Gov Udom Emmanuel regrets agreeing to rename The Nes of Champions after Akpabio, which was the plan of Akpabio when he was building the stadium ,he only refrained from naming it after himself while in office as it would have been improper and would generate a huge uproar, I think rather than embark on the duplication of project, Udom Emmanuel should just have reversed imself by renaming the stadium again as The Nest of champions. If Akpabio wan die make he go die

Rosskiye:


These so called ''basic amenities'' require MONEY to be actualized. You need revenue generation efforts to create that income. If a stadium will bring in revenues to the state, it's a good thing. Do you think that monthly allocation from Abuja is enough to provide all those facilities you listed? It's nowhere near enough, even without corruption.

Atouke:


How can a 17,000 seater stadium in a district capital of eket replace a 30,000 seater stadium in the state capital.
Some of you just say things before you think.

Myself2:


Did you even bother to read and comprehend my comment before opening your wide mouth to spew useless accusation and name tagging ??
Mtcheww over sabi

Atouke:


Show me a state government that has invested more in agriculture than Gov. Udom emmanuel?
Have you heard of
1).st. Gabriel coconut plantation and refinery?
2). Cassava processing plants over 10 in the state
3). Ibom integrated farms a Songhai styled farm.
4). Reactivation of Akw palm estate , the biggest palm oil eastate in west Africa.
5).500 ,tonnes per day kings flour mill.
6). Agriculture green house project by the airport.
7). Akwa prime poultry and hatchery the biggest poultry hatchery in south south and southeast Nigeria.
ibom Agricon rice mill and plantation .
9). Cocoa processing factory and plantation in ini lga
10).3 palm oil/kernels processing factories.
12) AKEES the best of them all ask any young akwa ibomite what Akees stands for! The program that has brought more young people into agriculture bussiness than any in this country.

This are just a few I can remember. Show me a state that has done more in agriculture development in Nigeria, I will be glad to put gov.udoms record against such governor for Nigerians to judge.

Sonnyboom:
Herr we go again with retards according themselves glories for uncompleted projects.

MagumForce:

Hey mister,will you stop all this propaganda?Do you think you’re the only one from Akwa Ibom State?I have been reading your posts and quotes and I don’t know whether you’re the Govt’s mouthpiece or just saying whatever you feel like.You first said something bout 1700km of roads being constrcuted and someone asked you to check your facts which you couldn’t.Mention where the cassava plants are located and show us pitcures as you did with the stadium.Don’t forget to add the Cocoa processing factory and plantation,Agriculture greenhouse project.Please,present the facts for us to see.

Kinematics:


Some hype doesn't make sense. Every State in the niger delta have the capacity of supplying 24/7 power for their people. But the national grid will not allow that.

Even some states in the north can do that as well. The total of 381MW generated from the 2 power plants in AKS is still very small compared to what states like Rivers, Delta, Abia, Niger and Taraba generates. These states generates over 1000MW each.

Realfrankie:
[s]This Akwa ibom na Mad ooo

The feelings the enter body

Kudos to their leaders [/s]

Atouke:


You should be the one to do the checking. Am satisfied with what the state government is doing.
