This is what Ndigbo did with Onitsha main market over 60 years ago..............it says a lot about our state of affairs that other African nations have slowly but surely outpaced us in every sphere of human endeavour............ Soludo should tell us where exactly he is taking us.......I see little focus in his activities of late!
What exactly is Soludo's plan for Onitsha? Why is he stuck in the main market, duelling with traders? I do not know why he is not building a brand-new Anambra main market in the spacious axis surrounding the second niger bridge! Is it me, or is Soludo slightly less focused this second term? I am not feeling this his second tenure!
SafariHunter: Cancer ooo What's happening na Abi na GMO dey cause am

cat fish is not a good fish to eat! Any fish without scales.......is not good for you! The Bible says so!
Any new picture of the head bridge in Onitsha? The report we are getting is that nothing fundamentally different has been done or achieved there in 4 years! I still maintain Soludo lost a golden opportunity to achieve a new face for Anambra by rehabilitating that whole axis! He has never regained any appreciable momentum in Onitsha after getting lost in Okpoko! Even the Onitsha 2,0 is still fable............. It's like Soludo has an axe to grind with our major trading hubs............sad really
WizardOfNG: The ability to work with reality, to then think critically and logically, is the problem of Nigerians. This is why we are not creating human resources that can produce home-grown solutions for our major problems.
Anyone not seeing the need for Nigerians to prepare for the Presidential system getting weaker, with more devolution of power to regions, is ignorant.
Yorubas saw this ages ago. This is why, as far back as 2013, they created an expansive regional agenda road map document for the development of the SW under regional integration. I have said it several times and will say it again. If Tinubu restructures Nigeria adequately before he leaves, delivers State/regional policing and a good degree of Regional autonomy, then I am cool with the SE and North rotating the Presidency between them forever because both region don't understand the concept of national/regional progressivism.
Apparently southwest is London hollywood! the epicenter of the japa syndrome is the place you are prattling about o!
The essence of life is to be happy and fulfilled. Yorubas understand they can create an environment to foster that for their people if they can get to define the SW in their own image.
How some Nigerians don't see that the Nigerian Presidency, in even 10 years, will be a redundant institution is incredible. It cannot be any other way.
Promotes Japa to UK…Collect enough money from people….After sometime, change the immigration laws to what won’t favour the immigrants…Send those immigrants away eventually..
After sometime, they’ll promote Japa again and repeat the same cycle..
Sha, I don’t blame UK o. There’s no way you’ll be hearing that some Africans do sell their properties to Japa come UK, and you’ll expect UK not to extract as much as possible… UK wey be king of extractors..
Why anyone would want to migrate to the Islamic Republic of Londonistan is beyond me!
adenigga: Oakland’s City Council has voted that a Nigerian medical doctor, Matthew Bernard, and his wife will pay a fine of nearly $1m for felling 38 legally protected trees on and around their Claremont Avenue property in the United States.
A California-based media platform, KQED, reported that more than 20 residents at a public hearing on Tuesday demanded enforcement of Oakland’s tree protection laws.
They argued that the leafy canopies of the trees in the area were important for wildfire prevention, public health and environmental equity.
Diaspora Tales reported last month that Bernard and his partner, Lynn Warner, said they removed trees from their property on an arborist’s advice.
At the hearing on Tuesday, the Nigerian medical expert told the council that the trees removed from his property nearly four years ago were “dead, dying, leaning,” or in “hazardous condition.”
The city, however, disagreed and fined Bernard and Warner $915,135.40 and placed a claim on their property that would prevent them from developing or selling the land until the fine was paid.
Defending the fine, a community tree specialist, Erys Gagnez, said, “Trees of that size are not commercially available for replacement. Even with replanting, it will take decades, even centuries, to restore the ecological and protective functions that were lost. The scale of the fine reflects this reality.”
There are certain fields that some ethnic groups have a flair for..........its not a hard set rule but history suggests so! The National electric grid was first developed by an Igboman........the GSM revolution was midwifed by Dr Ernest Ndukwe.........the electric sector privatisation was midwifed by Prof Nnaji but was cut short by the ijaw man called Jonathan..........the Nigerian railway during the colonial days was led by Igbomen!
Give the sector back to Prof nnaji,,,,he has the magic wand!
BigCowHornn: I just wonder whether most of the people above me can speak English
You read what they wrote and you have to take a step back to understand it
The quality of contributions on this forum has taken a turn for the worse... the grammar is bad enough, but you cannot make head or tail of the rubbish people are writing here! I am ashamed to be honest!
EmperorIsaac: NDLEA should have a directorate there for the sake of Nigeria's global image.
like southeast is part of your general and colonel killing craphole..........southeast is Biafra! let the hatred and envy sip thru your vital organs....hater
It's shocking how our security operatives cannot hastily trace, arrest, prosecute these animals, but they can locate well-meaning Nigerians in minutes because of an online post.
Isn't this weird?
These Fulani Islamic extremists and terrorists have become bolder in recent times. Can you imagine that they now operate social media accounts with their pictures and videos emblazoned everywhere?
Oh! Just remembered. I also saw a picture of a policeman allegedly in a picture with this terrorist!
I've said elsewhere that the government lacks the willpower to fix Nigeria's security challenges. This lack of willpower isn't just a Tinubu problem. It's traceable to previous leaders, notwithstanding the political platform they operated from.
As someone that has travelled to one or two places within and outside this continent, I can safely conclude that in this part of the world, human life has got absolutely no value!
Black man. Black brain. Black mind. Greedy, self-centred heart. Shortsightedness. Religious bigots. Trabalists. Nepotists.
God forbid!!!!
This is what you get ..when you give power to owanbe exponents......they are more interested in the perks and trappings of power........actual leadership is too much of a climb for them!Ronu over to you!
Putindbutt: Eyah!, another one again?. Tinubu! Tinubu!! Tinubu!!!, how many times have i called you?.
Same Bitter people will say Tinubu is not doing anything in the SE. Infact they will tell you any projects in the SE is being done by MTN and not Tinubu.
Secondly, they also saying " what's Tinubu doing with the loans?". cally in the north is If only Tinubu did as Buhari treated them as 5%ters.
do not do na.......when another agitation starts you start wondering why........anyway kudos to Tinubu! The policy of maligning ndigbo in order to gain politically in the north , failed woefully! Obasanjo never did that and till today He is still respected in the east! Ndigbo do not want unearned favors...just treat our people with respect and fairness!
Macphenson: Yarimo see your life. Like I always tell you, go and hug transformer but make sure you hug the one in Abia state,as the one in your state have no light.
