listen to me and listen to me very carefully, JP Morgan can go burn in HELL. Nigeria will always come out strong under the new leadership of buhari.

we will restore liquidity to our currency market WHEN we have successfully diversely diversify our mono-economy(won't probably take two years with a good government in place) and reduce the number of products we import by developing our local markets.... Any further devaluation of our currency(which is what JP Morgan wants us to do) will lead to currency crisis between our naira and dollar. And before we know it, we will start buying 1dollar at the rate of 600naira or more, and fools like you will start pointing accusing fingers at buhari.

hehe hope you are ready to start buying aba made?

Not sure if Emeka offor led interstate really wants to continue being in in charge of Enugu disco this one they are challenging this.
I hope they know namadi sambo is no longer there

cupid4ig:
What happened to edo, osun, rivers and Lagos state?

Lagos is there

yang:
clearly the delta state govt is under performing vis a vis the funds it has

The local govt is also under-performing

But the major problem is not the govt of this area but the people and the way they think

Until you change your way of thinking and support Biafra

Funny how people live in a pit latrine of the zoo called Nigeria and still drive 10million naira cars inside it

Or how a man like Emami Ayiri is role model for people who come from this area

Nigerians are baboons and monkeys who do not know that the world of today is more collaborative

Build and develope your enviroment and stop mindless worship of money

nothing concerns people from this part of the country(minus maybe anioma axis) with biafra

Stolen:
Buhari is corrupt and an election rigger.


Whether his son is Inec chairman or Daughter, even goddaughter abi na satan daughter.


Bayelsa Rivers, Delta, Akwa ibom, Cross River, Abia, Enugu and Ebonyi is PDP till the end of days.



Don't try any nonsense, we are not your fan. simples!

I am sure loved abia government under orji

If one is in business then i guess one should be able to explain the amount

I decided to post this here since abians hardly comment on their own thread

basilo101:
stop repeating this garbage. everybody can decide their fate through a referandum

good luck with those groups on that

tochukwuifeduba:
Buhari is under estimating our resolve and determination nothing can stop our quest for total and comprehensive freedom of our people. What you may not understand is thay Biafra of today is capable of over running Nigeria in 72hrs

what I can let you know is that this agitation lacks strategic thinking..why include isoko,urhobo,ijaw?let me not mention other ethnics?you don't see a problem in this abi?you honestly think these ethnics are with you?...secondly the hate messages are just unnecessary as it adds nothing...like I said leave Holland and come and live Nigeria to lead the fight

tochukwuifeduba:
If death the price of freedom then let us die without a shred of fear.. nnamdi kanu is our demi god may are ready to give their life that he maybe a life to advance the freedom of our people

egbe onu..leave Holland you are now and come and live in any part of igboland..all of a sudden you left all those funny political analysis you used to do before election to start carrying Biafra on your head after election

BuddahMonk:
Anytime you remind yorubas how backward and old Ibadan, Abeokuta and other brown roofs and mud dominated cities are they will tell you its because their ancestors started building cities when others were still living on trees.

Now my questions are these.

Did the old oyo build with corrugated zinc before the arrival of the whiteman


Did the old old people build with cement before the Europeans set foot in Africa


Why are the walls built of muds and the roofing of corrugated zincs


If yoruba towns and cities are to be as old as they are trying to make us believe here, the roofing will be of thatched while the walls of mud to show undiluted preservation of precolonial African building technologies and materials.

Why are the walls of the yoruba houses made of muds but the roofing of corrugated metal sheets


If you visit Enugu, Fegge in Onitsha and old Aba town and Umuahia you will see the deviation between pre colonial houses Igbos built, colonial houses Britian built and the current structures going in Igboland which are post colonial "Igbotic" deviating from the pre colonial, slightly from the colonial and arrival on their own architecture "Igbotic".


Below will be pictures of old Aba town, a colonial outpost and new Igbo buildings springing up just behind it, you can spot the differences.

---

if Yorubas think that Ibadan, Abeokuta et al are these old because they are trying to preserve their traditional architecture, we will tell them that their fore fathers never built with corrugated metal sheets or cement but thatch and muds.

If they think that by lying of protecting their antiquities for future generation, we will tell them that there is big lacuna between mud and corrugated metal sheets, between cement and thatch.


Have you seen a house built of cement but with thatched roofing - Noo - reason cement is younger than thatch in the Africa building society.


Have you seen a house built of mud but with corrugated metal sheets - yes - reason that corrugated metal sheets is younger than mud in the Africa building society, its easier to change the roof of a building than to change the walls.

Changing the walls mean demolishoin but changing the roof mean upgrading.

Yorubas upgraded their cities with corrugated metal sheets (oyibo material) but still retain the traditional building material of mud (Africa material) .

why are you so much engaged in this type of thread these days?

MadCow1:
Yes he can Mynd.

It is a CONSTITUTIONAL requirement for all public office holders to assume office.

If they fail to do so, that is enough grounds for impeachment.

#NewNigeriaOrder..

#iChange

I dont think it is constitutionally compulsory

baralatie:
Phillips dude litersraily shut down his own thread with insults exchange frequencies alongside with kabo.....

I dont think phllip70 is the Same person as jpphilips

cjrane when you used Enugu airport was work going on at the terminal of the international wing?

millionaireman:
Lol.
N5 billion divided by 637 communities = N 784,929.36.
Well, every community must first provide water to run the industry with this amount. What is left after that to build the industry?

one of the reasons I believe rochas has issues when it comes to administration

jomoh:
Present a logical argument next time. Not the Hogwash you wrote the other time.

You don't expect me to believe your cooked up version of the story when the true version litters the internet.

Until that region takes responsibility for its actions, that region will forever suffer in this country.

I repeat go and read before commenting.
For your information if we go by region only ifeajuna is from the present day se that were among the five majors.
As for suffering I would like you to point to an Eldorado region in Nigeria at the moment

jomoh:
Just read what you wrote again. Does it sound logical? (No insult meant)

How can someone penned for elimination be the one to halt the same coup he was to be eliminated in and still went ahead to be the main beneficiary yet you still want people to believe he(Ironsi) had no hand in the coup?

Let's assume your story is right. You now said he helped halt the coup. Are you serious right now? You mean they could have gone ahead to perform a genocide on the northerners had he not halted it.

You also said Northern officers. Which northern officers were eliminated? It was defenceless civilian leaders that were murdered in cold blood.

So the fact that he (Ironsi) surrounded himself with Northern officers means he had no hand in the elimination of northern leaders? Or does it justify the senseless killings by the coupists who were 95% from a certain region of the country?

To me it only means he was being naïve to believe that he and his people could pacify the north with posts after murdering their leaders. It was plain stupidity.

Yes they had the right to take over the properties since it is stationed on their land and not part of the Biafra. Is it not this same SS that SE is now claiming to be part of Biafra(because of oil).

Learn to know that you can never eat your cake and have it at the same time.

I can see you do not know much about what happened then and you are relying on emotional conjectures...goodluck and read without prejudice about what happened in the past

jomoh:
"Unitary system" was to unify the whole country into one which obviously is in stark contrast of the same thing I see people agitating for this days. We are not one. Aguiyi Ironsi by that Unitary system forced us together to make us one.

Had Aguiyi Ironsi not set the wheels in motion another person (Gowon) wouldn't have the thought of consolidating it.

No one will have gone ahead to split the regions into states arbitrarily if someone had not introduce a unitary system thereby making us what we are not.

We should stop blaming these people and let's lay the blame where it is due. If Ironsi and his lieutenants had not gone on a murdering rampage, killing their leaders unprovoked, they(the northerners) probably wouldn't have thought of seizing power every now and then. Those people started a war they couldn't win now the whole country is paying for their sins. Yet their people are the ones still bent on splitting this country trying to drag the ND/SS along with them.

They also started hatred towards the SW for not following them out after murdering the SW leader too in the coup.

They called the ND/SS people land and property thieves because they didn't believe in their selfish ambition.

not sure you know your history well...not sure what you mean ironsi and his lieutenants going on murderous rampage because ironsi himself was penned down for elimination but as fate will have it he was one of the ones that helped halt the coup.read different accounts of that coup..by the way ironsi introduced that unitary system because of the precarious situation the country was then...if ironsi as you said went on murderous rampage on northern officers how come most of his assistants that he appointed were northerners? How do you think he was easily eliminated?...as for your nd and ss last statement ho and read about abandoned property issue in ph after the war..as for north and power I am sure ahmadu bello would be laughing at your statement as his famous statement about north and power are well known

jomoh:
I won't want to mention to avoid being labelled an ethnic bigot but its an open secret that everybody knows. It is the same people always shouting Marginalisation and craving independence after setting these once potentially great Nation on a wrong and deadly path.

I believe with this you should be able to take a good
guess. Your guess will be as good as mine.

you have the wrong answer to his question..aguiyi ironsi introduced unitary system after the nzeogwu coup but it was gowon started splitting of states..potentially Nigeria has always been great however how to go about the greatness is the problem..also if you read Nigeria history between independence to the nzeogwu coup it was inevitable that there was going to be a crises something caused operation wetie and western regions crises

you are a consumate fool if you do not know what this woman has written about igbos..
Biafran knuckle head like you

ibadanfinest:
I didn't know it was another guy that responded. I think you are just learning English. You think you are more knowledgeable than I am. I am telling you the fact, you are speaking grammar.
I am done jare. Simple question, instead of providing g answer, you start beating about the bush. Its good you came to the aid of your ignorant brother.

being shifty is a recognised trait so I am not surprised..you asked for an eg of a major manufacturing firm and i gave you but of course you will not admit it..only an ignorant person assumes more intelligence that another in an anonymous forum after one exchange..just seat down in that your corner and stop advertising your ignorance

ibadanfinest:
Its still trading that's not to say minor firms are not there. Am not a bigot like u and I argue with fact and based on what I know. I can still argue that firms in Nnewi plus Onitsha in terms of value and capacity cannot compete with the one in ibadan.
Plus how come most things I get there are from the west. and I don't need to google like u.

believe whatever will make you sleep soundly at night..like the say ignorance is bliss..people reading both of our comments will know who the bigot is..sorry I did use google to list the company I listed so so much of me using google

ibadanfinest:
Wetin u want make I dey chop before. What is hatred and cowardice in asking you to name one single major manufacturing firm and one major product produced in Nnewi.
I will not condescend to insulting you. Anyways I guess your observation is based on hearsay that's why you think any tangible manufacturing is going on in Nnewi.

the audacity of arrogant ignorance is the bane of people like you...i will just give you one CUTIX WIRE AND CABLE...if don't know what is going on in nnewi dont use prejudice or or what you have brought up to believe that just trading happens there just because majority of spare parts traders are from there

Bialegend:
Col. Hamid Ali (rtd) the best man for the job. I am loving this. Haters gonn die. Proudly 5%

funny someone like you is saying this

PassingShot:
Nice one.

I just hope this man will be willing to do the work. He is the type of person that is needed to put sanity in NCS.

As per his request to report to the president directly rather than a finance minister, it's a sign of a level of personal pride in what he has achieved for himself. He finds it difficult to come to terms with being answerable to a tarnished politician who may not possess the same high level of integrity as him.

is a tarnished politician going to be appointed as minister of finance by buhari?

Evaromantik:
during the Biafran war,my father was posted to defend Biafra there in Asaba.......thousands of Delta indegens were killed in Delta state by Nigerian soldiers........the map of Biafra was neither drawn by me nor you but by our fathers that knows how history looks like

make una forget this talk..
Moreover Biafra of then was the then eastern region and urhobo belongs to then then western region

As a sole administrator?would that be allowed?

MrEverest:
Geometric is functioning in Osisioma, Aba at the moment. The very unfortunate spat between geometric and Emeka Offor's Eastern distribution company only stopped geometric from supplying power to the entire city of Aba(which would have been great) but geometric has the right to supply power to industries in Aba directly. Emeka Offor is sabotaging the effort of prof Barth Nnaji to give Aba and indeed the S.east a face-lift, he is just being too greedy by denying the SME's at Bakassi/Ariaria, kent/Azikiwe and so many others scattered all over Aba the opportunity to have 24 hours uninterrupted power supply to grow their businesses and help the economy of Abia state. God will continue to bless prof Barth Nnaji and make Shylock Emeka offor to have a change of mind.

ok didn't know about that..
However I think it is just a matter of time before geometric takes over the aba zone..that I because nerc and bpe have validated the rights of geometric over aba zone just some weeks ago..offor was simply banking on his closeness to the then vp sambo to frustrate nnaji

MrEverest:
I am impressed to say the least, this is the kind of self-help Igbos are well known for. Mbakwe built the imo airport and some other projects through this means. Onye ajuru aju anaghi aju onwe ya, even if FG abandons us as they have done since independence, we have all it takes to set the pace in Nigeria, we have continued to have the highest literacy rate, lowest incidence of poverty, highest percentage of deliveries by qualified health personnel, the states of Imo, Anambra and Abia have consistently been among states with the highest enrollment rates into unity schools and universities, I can go on and on to list all the areas igbos have consistently led the pack in Nigeria despite FG orchestrated subjugation, all these were achieved simply because of our liberal and capitalist society, healthy rivalry between constituent parts and self help projects such as this one planned by WIC. There should be a synergy between S.East governors, WIC and Ohanaeze ndigbo to fashion out modalities where we can build world class universities, hospitals, malls, office buildings and estates etc in Igbo cities like Enugu, Owerri, Onitsha, Aba, Asaba,p.harcourt ,Abakiliki, Umuahia etc. Believe me, we have the human resources within Nigeria and in the diaspora to achieve such, we can even float a company that would be quoted in the stock exchange and its shares sold to interested Nigerians to realize more capital. I believe there is a new consciousness or reawakening among Igbos in thinking home. Another of such is what Prof Barth Nnaji did in Abia state by building geometric power plant(dedicated to industries in Aba) with world bank assisted funds in Osisioma, Aba, that singular project have resuscitated moribund companies like PZ and Nigerian breweries, hopefully Unilever and many others will bounce back and the new governor needs to improve on the roads and waste disposal and then hype Aba to attract investments and what former minster of Industries(I have forgotten his name) did in Ebonyi by building one of the biggest modern rice mills(Ebony rice) Finally, a refinery somewhere between Owerri and Oguta in Imo state will help the economy of the S.east, if only Rochas is serious he can provide part of the funds and then lure foreign investors and Igbo diaspora to invest in it. Now is the time jump-start the S.East economic tiger!!!

not sure geometric has started functioning..they still have issues with interstate electrics over aba zone

AnambraDota:
Opinion.

Isn't it better we keep everything in Igboland 100% Igbo dominated and own.

Especially mineral exploitations.

If Ibeto is exploiting limestones in Ebonyi, Orient and Nestoil drilling crude in Anambra and Anioma respectively.

We should be territorial, we have seen what mineral explorations by foreign own corporations did in Niger Delta, plunder the land and leave the people with oil spill and poverty to contend with.

Many intelligent nations don't allow foreign mining and exploitation of minerals except in Africa.

Igbo should keep everything 100% indigenous like we are doing in manufacturing back home.
Uche Oga, Orji Kalu, et al should start investing in oil n gas to make sure those oil wells in the hands of the Gambaris are recovered.

We are different people, so we need to handle our things differently.

Its increase Igbo consciousness

sounds good but hardly realistic in real life..even china with its protectionism had to start opening up their economy...the only rule is play by their rules

Abagworo:
Buhari can never sideline Igbos. That's impossible! Already an Igbo man is heading NNPC for the 1st time in history.

what is with the jeep?

janus05:
Ok
Nigerians should expect anything from Buhari. Even as president, Buhari is a very bitter man, with deep seated urge for revenge. He needs our prayers for delivery and deliverance.

The ex-custom boss who hails from the same state is a very intelligent man. That was why he denied Buhari the gratification of sacking him. And believe you me, Buhari is more vexed that someone he is planning to humiliate and sack denied him that "glory".

stupid comment
