Igbosmoker:
In next 10 years if akwa ibom continue like this I see them overtaking river state as the most developed state in South south.

Our neighbor mumu Delta is still sleeping, let me not even mention that yeye bayelsa state

Sam4eternallife:
Proverbs 29:2
[2]When the [uncompromisingly] righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when the wicked man rules, the people groan and sigh.
This is secret of true development.

Urchman200:
which state is more industrialized than abia? Bad leadership is the problem of abia state not about industrialisation.

Hunchogee:

I don't still understand Bayelsa do the give them 13% derivation?

friday2011:
Starting no dey hard government for this country...

Lets see how far maintenance will go, hopefully they can privatize it.

Igbosmoker:
Only Edo and cross river don't have oil. But it's only akwa ibom that is trying.

River state haven't made an improvement since wike took over, not that that mumu amaechi is even good but it's better.

Delta State have been looted since forever, they use the remnants to develop some part.

While bayelsa is in God's hands lmao

yaki84:

We don't want it to challenge any sector.
Industrialization in akwaibom isn't for competition or game of challenge.
Na for the economy of the state.

JAMO84:
This is the kind of things that can take Nigeria out of poverty, not by Buhari snapping his fingers and poverty should be gone.


I AM DONE TALKING

carpdiemz:


I’m telling you oh , I passed through the plantation from ogoni land with my landlord when I was serving in rivers state , we enroute to eket that was my first time in akwa ibom , the plantation is picturesque I so much love it kudos to them , that state is blessed even looking at the soil they are blessed ,and they have got a beautiful weather too

Hollyharjii:
I just love the state naturally, good things are always on their sides, the most cleanest state in Nigeria so far, with lots of recreational centers, God now buttered their bread with a good Leaders who believe in continuity.
Kudos to Victor Attach
Godswill Akpabio
Emmanuel Udom

I'm proud I served in such state

StubbornGENIUS:
If the industry cannot grow beyond akwaibom state,then its just like any other small scale business

Gregorian2020:
I love this, not those who are planning to feed school children who are sitting at home with 13 billion naira. Build what will provide job

Nwaonyishi69:
But, where are the coconut trees? Let this not end up like other beautiful but unusable plants (Nwobodo's carpet factory that took millions of dollars loans). Believe, for me, that there should be ready and sustainable plantations before the factory. This is because, most times, these plants are just built as a means of justifying some stashed away billions, while meaningful and yarning needs of the society are overlooked.

booz:
Why not learn from Dangote tomato paste error? Where's the raw material that'll ensure continuity?
It's not about setup, it's about carrying out comprehensive feasibility studies before embarking on such enterprise

abeggnow:
IT cant. I will tell you why because it's government-owned, except it privately owned or some form of joint ownership between government and private individuals where the private individual owns more stakes. You see government-owned companies are known for their inefficiency and cronyism.

SIONKPO1:

Johnson baby oil and others are imported from Europe,with this coconut oil factory coco-dollars

SIONKPO1:

Oga,try to read,don't just jump to a conclusion
Coconut plantations are in ikot abasi,eastern obolo and mkpat enin
Likewise in other LGA

YungLasaint:
Yea you're right... Maybe the have boycott everything...

Kenmoris22:
oga all this things are fake this akwaibom govt lai too much all is fake not existing

Kennydoc:


Listen, Nigeria is a poor country. The resources are limited, and the focus should be on building things with economic potentials. By the time the country is as rich as some of the First World countries, we can start spending money on aesthetics. What is the value of iPhone 11 to a man who needs 400k to start small scale business?

That PH Monorail was a waste of funds in the first place.
Another thing, remember Calabar was the first to build Monorail. When last did hear about it?
Apart from Lagos, I sincerely don't know any other state that deserves monorail as a critical infrastructure now.

Abagworo:
The impact of this will be in years to come but if it is owned and managed by Akwaibom State Government then it is dead on arrival like every Government owned industry.

booz:

Igbosmoker:
that still is top 4 richest in Nigeria. They also take 13% oil earnings.

They are among the lowest population state in Nigeria and the state is also small, they've everything it takes to be developed

wink2015:
DELTA STATE VOTERS WILL SUFFER THE POST CORONAVIRUS ECONOMIC CHALLENGES IF THEY DO NOT CHANGE THE KIND OF LEADERS THEY ELECT INTO HIGHER PUBLIC OFFICE.

From ex-governor James Ibori to Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, and the current governor Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa all have the same mindset which did not support the development of industries.


INDUSTRIALIZATION is lacking in Delta state.

What you see is just, petrol station, private school, hotels and churches.

NO MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES like what one can find in the south east like Innoson, Ibeto, and many others that is scattered around Nnewi, Awka, Aba etc

CRUDE OIL is getting lesser and lesser in terms of relevance.

What is the next goldmine. AGRICULTURE, MANUFACTURING AND FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRIES ETC

THE SEAPORT that is supposed to be a natural blessing is under-utilized.
Wow, but I heard warri is massively developed with industries na

kayusely70:
God Bless The Visionary Emmanuel!

Hunchogee:

Thats surplus but why are there still underdeveloped?
