You kinda forget that Cross River, Akwa Ibom have potentials for tourism and technology growth which could build those economies. People will frequent these cities for relaxation and business from all over Nigeria if commute would be faster

Stolen:
A seaport is under federal list not state governors.

People want to talk but have very little idea.

Will the federal governmnet ever approve such for SE?

BEST WAY FORWARD IS FOR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SUCH TO CONSTRUCT IT.

9jii:
But ben bruse said it was never in the budget.
PDP God just de exposed your lie

isan:
And so what? Yu are just doing yur job

ndcide:
No Madam, vanguard is helping us and should be commended. Did you before now know that the Lagos - calaba rail was not captured?

That is whistle blowing. Please ma'am be open minded.

Vanguard learned that although the N60 billion meant for the Calabar-Lagos rail budget was not in the original budget, the Budget and National Planning Minister, Senator Udoma Udo Udoma, successfully defended and got it included in the amended budget.

ndcide:
We know you and your people don't want the project done in the south. We are telling amaechi that he will be dealt with. If the project is not captured and implemented. period!

No body is fighting amaechi, when we begged him as a brother and even begged general Gowon to talk to him, he refused.

No body is begging anymore. QED.

ndcide:
All I know is that amaech should not step into PH if northern rail project is approved and that of the South is not.

It will be rough when we ask you. That budget must not be signed if it's not captured.

I've checked the budget. That's why I'm saying it.

Abdulmumin is a member of the ruling political party in Nigeria, People's Democratic Party (PDP) until 2013 when he was one of the leaders that led 37 other lawmakers to cross-carpet to the leading opposition party in Nigeria - All Progressives Congress (APC) as a result of the emergence of factions in the ruling party and general dissatisfaction with the way the party is conducting its affairs

IyaIode:
It should be on record that vanguard broke the news about lagos calabar rail and y'all fell for it, i knew the nass will deny it then wailers will abuse buhari for lying.
This has been the antics of this pdp mouthpiece since buhari won elections last year, float a rumor then come back to deny it making the apc look like liars.

Greenback:

adconline:
It's calked equal responsibility! Stop being willfully ignorant! This project benefits Ogun, the manufacturing hub of Naija and Lagos, the economic capital than SS, why didn't their senators fight for the project.

Greenback:
even the devil will hold his head @ur mortal bitterness.
Go seek help b4 u do some bad to ur family,if u gat any.smh

hush15:
Can you plant yam and reap mango? How can they be APC on paper and PDP by birth??

Beside, the chairman on Appropiation Committee is and APC senator...

Party sentiments won't bring about any productivity here. There will be more cogent reason for scrapping the Lagos - calabar project and not the petty cheap game of politics you playong

You really don't see a future for Apc do you? You won't be surprised to wake Moro morning and discover that apc is no more.
I share in your fears bro.

TheGoodJoe:
All those asking what of the South West Senators are really not serious.

Amaechi came to Port-Harcourt and told the Rivers People that this project will benefit them. He highlighted how much jobs it would generate for people in the Niger Delta.

This same project left the budget and someone from the Niger Delta is asking why the Senators of the South South region allowed it to happen.

You guys are asking for South West Senators.

Haba.

We ask our Senators questions, not Senators from other regions.

Sen. Ben Bruce, drop the phone, stop twitting and look up. It also concerns your constituents.

ogba20:
my brother the north owns this country and yet the 70% of our budget is being finance with the resources from the region(Niger delta).shame

odikimi:
Some regions celebrated criminals like Awolowo who himself was ex convict only pardoned by Gowon, Abiola died in prison because of treason, PMB who was imprisoned because of treason (if u like call it military, all I know is they all were prisoners). Awolowo was sentenced to prison by a court of law.
U guys celebrated and voted for him when he came out of prison but always look down on others without removing the log from yo eyes.
I can see why u guys are hated down the South/East and in the North. I v friends from KD, Nasarawa, Kogi, Plateau etc who hate u guys like poo. They will tell me u guys are asslickers and untrustworthy, I thought they were lying. hypocrites, love your criminals, I love my, ki ni big deal?

odikimi:
are u ok? what Alamco did in Bayelsa, yo governor can never do it in d next 200yrs, u think we love him just because he is a human? we love him because he took care of an every Niger Delta man when he meets him.
For yo information, the little development u see in Bayelsa is 90%% of his work. it is just an improvement of his achievement. U people should stop ds insult on this man because Awolowo as yo leader died as an ex convict, it was Gowon who saved him by granting him Pardon. Abiola died in d prison which is more shameful.
Pls mods u better talk to your people because at d end u will end up doing their bid of banning me.
Goodluck can die and we won't bother, Buhari can die and we won't even care but for this man......
This man's death was d main reason apc lost Bayelsa election because an average man sees apc as his killers because they haunted him to his untimely death. Go and check the list of Bayelsans that graced his funeral, no single apc person attended it, because not even Burutai could've saved the person from being beaten to stupor.

fitzmayowa:
The National Assembly is controlled by APC how come you are blaming PDP for this Enough of the blame game already...

11 months down the drain we are still battling with the issue of budget, i wonder when this administration is going to get it right...SMH

Trut:
What concerns PDP in this matter? The National Assembly is dominated by APC party men.

Emancipation:
lol....Op did you even check the date on the article that you posted?

This news is from May 14th, 2010.

Zombies are getting desperate for any glimmer of good news that will make bubu look good and save them from constant shame.

[b]There is also very strong evidence that these policies contributed to the immiseration of vast numbers of black (and also white) Americans at the bottom of the economic ladder, according to the well-known conclusions of journalists, academics and other criminal justice experts. Federal funding for public housing fell by $17 billion (a 61 percent reduction) under Bill Clinton’s tenure; federal funding for corrections rose by $19 billion (an increase of 171 percent), according to Michelle Alexander’s seminal work, “The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness.” The federal government’s new priorities redirected nearly $1 billion in state spending for higher education to prison construction. Clinton put a permanent eligibility ban for welfare or food stamps on anyone convicted of a felony drug offense (including marijuana possession). He prohibited drug felons from public housing. Any liberal arts grad with an HBO account can tell you the consequences for poor, black American cities like Baltimore. As Alexander writes, “More than any other president, [Clinton] created the current racial undercaste[/b].

modath:
Don't shake your head, say whay you mean, your response dey cooler...Have I ever applauded Alams as a person? Did I make reference to his stewardship in the state?

I'm referring to him as a "symbol" of resource control.... He fought for what most of them are benefiting from & they didn't it even deem it fit to honour him, which is the premise of my position or one can't freely express anything positive about him?

Na wah oooo..


One thing I want you to realise is that, -at the end of the day, "Robin Hood" is a criminal!!!

xelly:
I do not reason along the same line with you. Do you know that illiteracy is stubborn? Is he not moved as Fulani Herders are on rampage? Queue for fuel is on the increase and you call that courage?

You sing a high praise for a failure.
