Ranching should be a private concern. Why would the government go into such a venture instead of seeking a more strategic way of ending the clash between herdsmen and farmers, say, through proper sensitization and education? This, to me, is a scheme designed to favor a class of individuals.

The pillars already show this cannot carry vehicles. I hope you guys are not deliberately endangering people's lives.

Abagworo, you never posted the picture of SMICA runway extension. Did you just forget or the project was another hoax?

No runway extension going on as at today. Someone just confirmed that

Politics › Re: South West Leaders Deserve Some Commendation by AKswift: 11:28pm On Jun 06, 2018

The writer’s assertions are valid, expecially in the areas of public sector accountability, transparency and good governance. The Western states, fueled by strong cultural ties and the sense to promote regionalism, are leading the packs in present day Nigeria. There huge investment in public infrastructures, political intelligence and corporate business acumen has made this region a preferred investment destination.

Every region has the intrinsic qualities to develop only if they elect the right leaders and set in motion institutions that promote accountability and transparency in governance. For instance, development (by Nigerian standard) in the East is majorly done my her people, with little complementary effort from the government at all levels. The governmental structures there lack transparency and check and balances. For instance, it always come as a surprise why states like Abia and Anambra can’t record significant IGR returns annually. It could be monies are being siphoned, poor accountability or otherwise.

YES. When you come to new Carrollton MD, all the houses you see there was built by one REAL ESTATE company which is why they all look the same. There might be some small variations, but even a dummy will know that everything looks the same. When you go to northeast Washington DC, YES, almost all the houses you see in certain neighborhoods look exactly the same. THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO LAND FOR SALE IN ANY AMERICAN CITIES AND SUBURBS. I've lived for more than thirty years, both on the east coast and west coast, so I know what I'm talking about. Now, when you see a sign saying land for sale, it's not for sale to INDIVIDUALS, but to REAL ESTATE COMPANIES. REAL ESTATE companies build the houses and then sale to individuals. There are NO single plot of land selling going on in the US and most developed countries. This is not even supposed to be in doubt because they did EXACTLY the same thing in abuja. Abuja from all practical purposes was and is still being built by REAL ESTATE companies. The igbos don't even have to COPY what the developed countries are doing. Let them just copy what they are doing in abuja. WE SHOULD ALWAYS ASPIRE TO DO THINGS THE RIGHT WAY. RIGHT NOW, WE ARE PRACTICALLY DOING THINGS, ALMOST EVERY SINGLE THING THE WRONG WAY IN IGBOLAND.

Joor, stop this over generalizations! What do you mean by lands are sold off to only Real Estate Developers in cities and suburbs?

Hear this out: here in Ohio, lands are sold off to companies (real estate developers or otherwise) as well as private individuals. An individual can actually buy off a scrap building, raze it down and builds what he likes, as long as he has the permit from the city. A close relative, a pharmacist, recently bought an old house from a built-up city in Cincinnati. His known intent is to tear down this building and erect a building of his choice, upon confirmation from the City government. And yes, he is not a Developer but a private individual. So, E’Jor, stop this your 30yrs living in America over generalizations of situational issues.

You people are always ready to condemn anything 'Rochas'

The Nigerian mind is a terrible one

You guys never seem to see anything positive in anything that man does. Funnily enough, he keeps going loke loke in life

No matter how much you guys condemn him, those who know the impact he made in Imo State will always appreciate him.

Yes, Rochas has his failings just like every normal human, but he has left Imo with something positive, especially in education and healthcare.

I won't forget the day I was travelling to Enugu from Lagos. A guy from Udi was very angry with Sullivan Chime for, in his words, doing nothing for his people. The guy said that Sullivan Chime needed to go to Chimaroke Nnamani, who took all reasonable govt projects to his town, to learn about governance.

The same Sullivan Chime that everyone in Enugu celebrates?

That was the day I gave up on us Nigerians

Egbon, objective criticisms should not be misconstrued for hatred. Do you expect discerning minds to give accolades to who so ever is responsible for this?

Imagine a mobile viewing center on Third-Mainland Bridge!

AKswift, those two are impostors. Chino, the guy with many monikers, is Igala while Abagworo is Rivers man.

But they understand the language so well they are impersonating as Igbos.

It's just like an Igbo guy who was born in Lagos claiming to be a Yoruba guy

The attitude is not only peculiar here on NL, it’s exhibited almost everywhere: unhealthy comparisons among tribesmen. Though other tribes engage in such act, but that of your tribe is annoyingly overt.

I foresee a 'run' on MMM come next year. I am still trying to understand the rationale of asking everyone to GH on the same date; the world's biggest finance house would go down if it asks her depositors to withdrawal their funds same day. With this news, the scheme's participants, new and old, would be skeptical of the program. Well, there is a clause that reads: ..participate with your spare fund, I want to believe this is(was) taken into consideration...

I watch closely to see how it unfolds next year.....The sustenance of MMM hinges on her participants!
