What's your take on this vawulence by NBA?

Onitsha take another giant stride as the economic hub of the eastern region. Major multi national companies will be making in-roads into the city to take advantage of the new economic corridors as the 8-lanes Onitsha 2nd Niger bridge and access roads nears completion.

This is cool. With what's going on at Awka Millennium city & Millennium court, Dubai estate, Efab estate, etc, Awka is leading in quality and modern real estate development in the region. Onitsha luxury place estate is equally coming through. With the Anambra International Airport, there will be more development of upscale neighborhoods off Airport road and high rise of corporate headquarters and regional headquarters of bluechip companies lining the airport highway.

Quite nice

Anambra benefited most in SE from APC led federal government even without being in APC. This interchange and second Niger bridge shall further expand the Onitsha mega city as the Economic hub of Igboland. Anambra is the clear leader of igboland.

Anambra Youth Volunteer Launches "Nche App"

By Chibuzor Okoye (ABS News)

An application to report traffic and environmental situations in Anambra state has been launched in Awka by the Anambra Youth Volunteer.

The application named "Nche App" was launched at the Government House, Awka.

Speaking during the launching, the Leader of Anambra Youth Volunteer, Maazi Chukwuma Okpalaezukwu said that the App is designed for people, especially the youths all over the State to report environmental and traffic conditions in the state by downloading the APP through the Google store.

Maazi Okpalaezukwu said that once you download Nche APP from the Google store, there is a provision for one to report anything, according to him, Ndi Anambra can report either anonymously or by adding their names, and said that the essence is to assist Governor Chukwuma Soludo in building a prosperous, livable and smart mega State.

Also speaking, the National President, Anambra state Association of Town Unions (ASATU), Barrister Titus Akpudo described the Nche APP as a great innovation by the youths and maintained that the APP will also help in reporting crimes, and called on Anambra youths to join hands to make Anambra work.

Anambra Youth Volunteers are indigenous and responsible Igbo youths, who devote their time, goodwill and resources to assisting the Government and other related bodies for a better society and say no to all criminal and illegal activities anywhere in Anambra State.

They embrace the need to take responsibility and add value to the system through the rehabilitation, rebranding and reintegration, to
discourage and reduce idleness among the young people by a non-kinetic approach of reforming the mindset through consciousness and participation.

Nche App was designed to enhance Environmental and Traffic surveillance in the state as their digital solution, voluntarily donated in solidarity and support to the Soludo smart City project in the state.

Good development

ANSMEDIA:
Earlier today, I received a delegation of the Executives of our great Party -- the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) -- from Abia State at the Anambra State Governor's lodge, Amawbia. The leader of the delegation and candidate of our party in the upcoming 2023 gubernatorial election, Prof. Gregory Ibeh, came bearing good tidings from "God's own State".

Prof. Greg's personsal contributions to the development of Society is deserving of commendation. I am certain Abia desperately needs a Greg Ibeh.

We shall be in Abia to lead the charge when the time comes.

CC. Soludo, CFR.

Let's hope they will get it right this time in Abia. Congratulations to them

Cjrane2:
Exactly!

That is how to go about it when criminals test the will of a new government. When Obiano took over, the criminal gangs did the same thing to test his will. He rose to the occasion and drove them out of the state to enable him to implement his plan. Unless you decisively go after criminals, appealing to them to stop kidnapping and crime is a sign of weakness in their eyes.

Totally agree with you.

Good development. Anambra is the leader in the SE.

Thirty-two states in Nigeria, including Rivers and Kaduna, did not attract any foreign investments in the first quarter of 2022, The PUNCH has learnt.

A report by the National Bureau of Statistics shows that only Lagos, Oyo, Katsina, Anambra states, and the Federal Capital Territory attracted investment during the period.

According to the NBS’ Nigerian Capital Importation (Q1 2022), the total value of capital imported into Nigeria in the first quarter of 2022 stood at $1.6bn from $2.2bn in the preceding quarter, showing a decrease of 28.09 per cent.

When compared to the corresponding quarter of 2021, capital importation decreased by 17.46 per cent from $1.9bn.

The largest amount of capital importation by type was received through portfolio investment, which accounted for 60.87 per cent ($957.58m). This was followed by Other Investment with 29.28 per cent ($460.59m) while Foreign Direct Investment accounted for 9.85 per cent ($154.97m) of total capital imported in Q1 2022.

By destination of investment, Lagos State remained the top destination in Q1 with $1.1bn accounting for 71.16 per cent of total capital investment into Nigeria. This was followed by investment into Abuja (FCT), valued at $446.8m(28.40 per cent).

Anambra Oyo and Katsina states followed, with each raking in $4.1m, $2m and $700,000, respectively.

On the other hand, Abia, Adamawa, Akwa Ibom, Bauchi, Bayelsa, Benue, Borno, Cross River, Delta, Ebonyi, Edo, Ekiti, Enugu, Gombe, Imo, Jigawa, Kaduna and Kebbi states failed to attract any foreign investments during the period under review.

Others are Nasarawa, Kogi, Kwara, Kano, Niger, Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Plateau, Rivers, Sokoto, Taraba, Yobe and Zamfara states.

Categorisation of total capital investment by bank shows that Standard Chartered Bank Nigeria ranked highest in Q1 with $543.20m (34.53 per cent). This was followed by Citi Bank Nigeria Limited with $439.03m(27.91 per cent) and Stanbic IBTC Bank Plc with $251.52 (15.99 per cent).

Speaking in an exclusive interview with The PUNCH, an ECOWAS Common Investment Market consultant, Professor Jonathan Aremu, said, “It’s simple. It’s because they don’t have the attracting factors. The factors that attract foreign investment are not available in those 31 states. One thing about investment is that it is crisis shy. Investment doesn’t go to places where there are crisis. Why? Because investors want stability and predictability of their investments, particularly, having returns on their investments.

“When an economy is witnessing what we are witnessing currently, despite the investment potentials of that kind of economy, investors will wait and see whether the factors that can guarantee predictable and sustainable investments will finally be available.”

He added that the twin factors of a good investment climate as well as a good perception of that climate would have to be present for investors to develop the confidence to bring investments into the country.

Similarly, the Deputy-President of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Gabriel Idahosa, cited factors such as insecurity and the economic crisis experienced in Nigeria in recent years as major reasons why investors may not consider Nigeria the best possible destination.


Idahosa said, “We know what to do. We simply have refused to do it. We know that we should have put in place a state police system around this country maybe five or 10 years back, before Boko Haram became a monster. If we had state police in Borno State when Boko Haram was a very small, tiny group of ruffians creating local problems, perhaps we never would have heard of Boko Haram.

“Generally, the police system should be taken out of the Exclusive list; so we can have state police, and municipal police, just like we have in other federations. The New York Police Department has a budget that is probably higher than the Nigerian Police. Same thing with the Los Angeles Police Department. We know what to do, it’s just the political confidence to do it.”

Someone said Obi is more interested in playing a political godfather in Anambra (sending his loyalists back to Senate, and rep) than becoming the president of Nigeria. This is one thing I don't want to believe but Obi is acting as if it's true.
As usual... Stella Oduah has decamped back to PDP so Obi will repeat the miracle as it has always been for her, Uche Ekwunife, and co... Surprisingly; Val Ozigbo and other PDP senat. aspirants were screen out but stalls Oduah who just decamped from APC as usual was cleared.

Awka North and South Federal Constituency is suffering and smiling today because of the incompetent man they voted in... In the name of supporting Obi and PDP.

Because of constant decamping by Stella, I am not sure if she will get the party ticket.

Ndibunna:
You are disturbing our peace here. Obi is not your state governor.

I don't know why you guys are hypocrites. You are the indirectly supporting Godwin Emiefele for president, Wike or Amaechi for president all because they are from south south but will come here to demarket peter Obi...What audacity?

You support Emiefele because he is from same Delta state witu you but goes about trying to rubbish others from this zone...Ozu.

This was same way you are encouraging sit at home in onitsha but discouraging such in Asaba Delta state.

Chineke kpokwa gi oku.

Show us where he campaigned for Emefiele?

globemoney01:
He should stop distracting every Anambra Governor. Ngige, even Obiano has moved on not him.
His media aide writes useless articles against Obiano almost everyday on Facebook. Wrote even a useless book against Obiano. Now they are turning to Soludo. Let him stop distracting Anambra Governors

Ok

Ekiti State Governor, and Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, Dr Kayode Fayemi has paid a courtesy call on Governor Chukwuma Soludo in Awka.

“He came bearing good tidings from the “Fountain of Knowledge. Part of our strategic engagement as a Government is to forge good relations with other subnationals across the country.” Soludo said

“Ekiti is one State with great human resource capital, just like Anambra, this is one of our commonality. And we can only seek mutually benefitting ways of harnessing this priced heritage.” Governor Soludo further said

Governor Soludo welcomed Governor Fayemi to the “Light of the Nation” and went on to entertain the Governor with “Nkwụ enu” palmwine from Awgbu.

God bless Anambra State, the Light of the Nation

stanluiz:
People cannot go back to their village again for wedding or burial ceremony with the fear of being kidnapped or killed.

People now live in perpetual fear. House are invaded and people will be killed or kidnapped.

Those Terrorist are no longer in the bush. They now lives in town and villages and be collecting money from the people for any activities and also terrorize the locals of the villages. All this story are very disturbing.

Bring back Bakassi boys and create an armed civilian JTF to disloged those criminals.

Enact an antibiotic criminal law in Anambra state to totally disloged them. Criminals are now on rampage.

Governor Soludo pls do something urgently in Nnewi south, Aguata and ihiala including the rest of Anambra.

Insecurity in SE has degenerated so much. Ipob and it's affiliates and their field soldiers are mostly responsible for much of the Insecurity

That thinking is not reality

globemoney01:
That was how they messed Obiano up in the media for 8 years because Obiano won't even respond to this type of news officially and then what you said in bold will automatically apply.
Unfortunately for them, Soludo is always ready to talk. Had Soludo not debunked the story officially, by the next election we would be hearing how Soludo "squandered" Peter obi 100 million dollars savings and investments no wonder they are now crying everywhere about Soludo debunking the news.
Peter Obi should leave Anambra alone for God's sake.

Haba. How is Obi hold the state?

ChimaAdeoye:
Excellent update. It's refreshing to observe that the three super crash tenders made it safely to the airport! This brings the number of crash tender engines at the airport to a whopping five in number!

Now, only Nigerian politics is the obstacle to starting international cargo flights as authorized in the airport's construction permit.

Those who say Obiano did not work should cover their ugly faces. I am grateful that Obiano insisted on international best practices and
standards in all he did. As opposed to the typical southeast mentality of "managing" with second-hand equipment or even building an imitation crash tender "to save cost".

This up market Zieglar trucks will further elevate the airport to start receiving international flights when next the NCAA comes for another inspection.

You always like posting nonsense. The picture you posted was when upper iweka was under construction during Peter Obi tenure. This is the current looks of upper Iweka

What OP posted are fake pictures taken when the project was still under construction (precommission). See the latest pictures of the airport. Lalasticlala mynd44 seun take note. Political jobbers are at it again

Opposition and propaganda, this was old pictures from last year when the project was still under construction. Here are the current pictures of the propaganda they are spreading. Seun Lalasticlala mynd44, don't allow your forum to be used as political playing ground
