EasternLion:
That's why I said you should listen to RB more.

I told you some guys made a pledge to help out in infrastructure, or do you think Dir will say it without him being sure?

some guys made a pledge? How are you sure those guys have that money or are even willing to bring money to do that? We are talking billions of naira here..it is like what people do on launching promise money..then when the time comes otu a Wu ghi ezi
.and because kanu said does not make it true..you can't compare the cost to that that was raised for Imo airport in the 80s

EasternLion:
Only ten people will find it from Diaspora.

lol...emotional stuffs can be funny..those ten that fund it from overseas did they tell you they are interested in coming back him let alone being interested in it?

Obiagu1:
Give him Biafra and he will do it.

with which money?

biafranking:
hahaha...

They cant stop him...

They re not good enough to stop him...

Watch him rise up like adolf hitler...

The zoo must fall...

hitler is not someone to be emulated

biafranking:
ur statement at bolded sound ridiculous to me.how much is shoprite's emolument/salary that egbu youth should be very happy to have such job frm them?
Oh what a Slave mentality job?

If yu dont know bro.all dis fvcking southafrican shoprites in nigeria pays peanut to nigerians employed workers than what they paid them in southafrica..

There is someone i connected there,and the nigerians man said they will paid her 20k/mnth ?

Despite coming from far and despite being a graduate.
Nwanne,our system in nigeria is wrong if they dont checkmated the wrong payment of a foreign base companies in nigeria..
Let them keep overlooking cos
That s y i said,the zoo must fall or they should re-arrange their systems well..

not sure what concerns 'zoo' and the statement I made...i made that statement because the outfit is located within egbu and common sense dictates that those likely to be employed there would be those whose homes are nearby because of the low wages..by the way when I mean youths what I have in mind are generally secondary school leavers not university graduate as a graduate has no biz looking for work there

kennyman2000:
Hahahaha.. Yeebor man and innovation sha..

I guess, that's an innovation to them.. They should keep brainstorming such innovative idea in their states as that will aid the development of their states. Smh


Next time, make u na dey think well sha.. If the man had given himself the rank of ''Major general of the igbo kwenu''... He'ld have been spared sha..

brainless comment....no wonder they say education is an all time low in the country

eneanya2:
Before buying Oando shares, remember that the oil prices are down and alot of oil companies are closing up or sacking their workers. eg Afren Energy.

the same afren energy that bought into aba geometric ipp?

IsraeliAIRFORCE:
The government on auto-pilot is better than the one in reverse gear controlled by the blind.

President Buhari left the country without a blueprint and policy directives for 3 months thereby necessitating the unimaginable degree of uncertainty in Nigerian Stock market.

Oando shares is now valued at N9.9 per share.

This is worst period to invest in Nigeria. All foreign direct investments are on hold waiting when Buhari will stop propaganda and start the business of governance.

Until then, Nigeria economy will continue to be on hold as Jeda committee's recommendations "of destroying everything in a bid to erase any imaginable legacy of Jonathan's administration" are being implemented.

actually there is a saying that it is when stocks plummet that wise investors buy stocks...that oando is 9 naira now should necessitate shrewd investors to buy

Goke7:
label me whatever, truth be told, something is definitely wrong, the day we let go of all this un-forgiveness and bitterness, Nigeria will be great again.

not sure how 'unforgiveness' and 'bitterness' is responsible for the state Nigeria is in now..there are still racial tensions and outright killings due to that in America but it is still a great country..spain also has its regional divisiveness but Spain can still be regarded as a developed country

obailala:
If I had it in mind to execute a task, and people around me start threatening me that I MUST execute it, my natural reaction would typically be to dare the people. I hate being told what to do and I even hate it more when I am threatened.

I strongly believe the 2nd Niger bridge would be built and commissioned before the end of 2017; so these senseless Igbo wailers should just shut-up for once and stop provoking this abokii...

your first paragraph is that Igbo trait in you

Goke7:
coincidence my foot!

you see what am talking about, it was when elumelu's name was mentioned that you guys remembered ambode gave wrong information abi, when some of us mentioned the expression of interest thing, you guys bashed the hell out of us until you heard elumelu's name.

I pray tribalism will not eat up Nigeria soon

so aresa the moniker that opened a thread countering what ambode did is now Igbo right? The same character that carried fashola on his head in this forum? You are also what you accuse others of

fulanimafia:
One cannot forget the way you all rejected the APC with so much glee just months ago. When people said the SE plays horrible politics, you misconstrued it as hatred.

Not everyone is happy with what is happening to the SE, but no one can say you were not cautioned either.

what does this have to do with second niger bridge?

Goke7:
It is very obvious most guys did not read the entire report before jumping to nail PMB to the crosss, it also shows how we confuse ourselves in this nation, if the said project was in the north or the west, most of the guys crucifying PMB here will be praising and asking him to even probe further, but am surprised that they are not even saying that the Niger bridge contract itself should be probed to see if any corruption took place.

The same people were up in arms when the Falomo complex sandal broke out but as soon as Elumelu's name was mentioned, they changed their tongue asking Ambode to protect the business of their son instead of persecuting him but we all saw how they nailed Fashola to the cross over the contracts he awarded.

Something is very wrong with us as a people!

stop chatting rubbish..the falomo issue is btw ambode and fashola..that elumelu is involved is just coincidence...how come ambode gave the public the wrong info with regards to the 50m expression of interest issue which he termed amt payed for 50yrs

EasternLion:
No wonder, is he not the one asking the Eastern governors, all of them to indulge the diaspora, he lauded the security and economic summit in Awka and asked them to continue.
He has been asking all the governors in Biafraland not to look at FG, bit look inwards and make their states economical viable, because he knows hard times are coming.
He praises Obiano, Wike, Okowa and Ikpeazu and wants Udom to declare where he stands.
He is even proposing the various governors reach out to them with a request for any project and allow them undertake the project without government help.

He is changing his 'hate' speeches a bit, at least he is indulging the governors a bit.

believe me if he focuses more on ways of achieving Biafra,way it should be governed,putting pressure of the state govts,exposing corruption and hypocrisy both on fg and state govts and focus less and less hate messages he will win more of the neutral hearts...i once asked a cousin of mine who has lived in Barcelona for long and he say the a catalan station there broadcast more of Catalan pride and culture and hardly on hate messages against madrid

Chubhie:
As a village boy, I had only but good memories of Anambra.

I though you said you are an owerri brought up?

omenka:
We know what scannews, breakingtimes, hopefornigeria and guardiannewsusa stand for- nevertheless, let me oblige you guys with a little details regarding this perfidy. This is an excerpt from the article I wrote some time back- opportunity cost of corruption under GEJ:

When you compare these in terms of cost and magnitude, you see what a gargantuan scam the contract for the second Niger bridge is. It must be reviewed (not scrapped) to save cost.

just to correct an impression...the second niger bridge is not only the bridge component but includes approach rd from asaba and connecing roads and small bridges to Onitsha owerri expressway and Onitsha Enugu expressway through mashy terrain

EasternLion:
Do you listen to him at all?

I stopped sometime ago because of some of his hate messages though he spoke some truth

Mrbigman1:
I suppose u re asking non natives to leave ur state and let d natives to be successful?

After d warri crisis, please how many non native do we ve in warri?
1 to 10 of deltans.

It's a shame u re saying this.
If u wanna talk about d igbos, I guess u should go to the shopes and u'd know dat 4 out of every 10 shops or even more are owned by deltans.
If the agbos and kwales own a shop, hope u still know dey re deltans?

I guess u know d igbos dnt occupy ur work force?
I guess u know d igbos dnt have the best houses over here cos igbos would rather go build a house in d north than build a tent in this cursed land.
A land ridden by hatred, corruption, confusion and ignorance.

I guess u know that Anambra, imo and Enugu never needed oil or never cared about foreigners to make dia states d way dey re?

U need toi grow up and grow ur character right.
The average youths of delta should live above having just OND and wanting to compete with someone who's working with Msc and with 10 years experience.
And average deltan should live beyond share d money, an average deltan and even Niger delatn should live beyond waiting for a foreigner to come build structures so dat dey will rush out to obtain him or her and get d contract by force and build nonsense.

Dia re a very lot of things wrong with delta and deltan and only the Isoko seems to understand this

you lie about Igbo not building in delta state unless asaba and environs are not delta..i wonder why people lie on internet

pazienza:
I don't understand the OP, if you don't like the state, why not relocate, it's that simple, unless there is something else you are not telling us.

what if he is working in a bank or a govt parastatal

ACM10:
It's not supposed to be a good thing, but Nigeria's policy gave rise to this radical element. They must live with it.

if only his talks would make the governors of the region to sit up

ACM10:
The truth is that no Igbo leader wants to be in a bad book of Nnamdi Kanu. That guy is a mad dog and takes order from no one. He is more credible than any Igbo leader alive and commands more followers than all of them put together. No one wants to be attacked by him in the media. I'm afraid, ACF will fight this battle alone.

Gone are the days of the tactics of using Igbos to fight Igbos. That tactics will not work against Nnamdi Kanu.

is this really supposed to be a good thing?I mean no one can counter nnamdi?

Stolen:
He needs to finish that project fast and start expansion straight away in Ebonyi where the limestone is located for efficiency. He should focus on building capacity in Ebonyi to match Dangote.

His objective is to take over the SS/SE market. Lagos, Abuja and Jos will follow behind.


If he can produce as much cement as Dangote with lower cost then he will be fine.

ibeto is lucky that umahi which he backed is now governor and umahi reciprocated by removing all obstacles and objections to ibeto getting hold of that nigercem otherwise this thing we are discussing now will not be what we will be discussing

Stolen:
Asha we are talking about the largest cement producer in Africa and a potential threat from Ibeto to his market dominance.


Everybody knows that igbos build like mad. Even a poor civil servant has a building project.


If not shop then decent homes. Ibeto has the ability to drive Dangote from his biggest market in the East and South South.

Rival him in Lagos and Abuja. Jos included and dat is why Dangote is building capacity via expansion in preparation to drop price.


He will increase supply above demand and drop the price of cement. This is similar to wat happened to America shale oil and opec.

I know but dangote had a 'head start' over ibeto due to obasanjo's shenanigans and martin elechi's short sight..ibeto just have to compete..thats all

Stolen:
Ibeto is in trouble because Dangote is very busy building capacity to occupy and dominate the African Cement market.


Ibeto need to start thinking of expansion of his Cement factory in Ebonyi to stand a chance.


Dangote will drop the price of cement to drive him out of market. There will be no honeymoon period for Ibeto.


No period of controlling price.

ibeto is not the only cement manufacturer in Nigeria apart from dangote..by the way ibeto has to make nigercem operate again before expansion...though cheaper cement is good for builders

I would have loved if they named the three ports that was supposed to be built with 6b dollars

Just a pic nothing else...but t a orji will not find this funny on a lighter note

What concerns Onitsha traditional council and their being represented in this transaction?

Imo legislature recommends expulsion of coca-cola company Insists coy must tender c-of-o for certification


– Posted 3 days agoPosted in: Economy, International News, Local News, Security

The State House of Assembly Imo state, on Tuesday August, 18, 2015 recommended that, the executive governor of the state, Owelle Rochas Okorocha should take urgent steps in revocation of the certificate of occupancy (c-of-o) for over 300 hectres of land allocated operations of the Nigerian Bottling Company, (NBC), manufacturers of coca-cola soft drinks, in Okigwe LGA, considering the excruciating economic down-turn ravaging the state.
Addressing the Assembly during interface with authorities of the NBC led by the operations manager, Mallam Aliyu Bako, speaker of the House of Assembly Rt. Hon.Acho Ihim, said that the move became most-imperative, in view of the fact that, the company, which occupied the vast land in Okigwe, Imo State for thirty (30) years, has not shown convincing will and desire to help address the unemployment scourge in the state among other bothering issues trailing the protracted delay to begin business by the multi-national firm.
During the summon, preceded by a cross-fire of “question and answer” session upon resolution on a house motion earlier moved by the member representing Njaba constituency, Hon. (Mrs) Uju Mbadiwe, the embittered Majority of the state lawmakers, who took a swipe in ensuring that authorities of the NBC present for certification, operational permit and other papers issued them on allocation of the land at Okigwe since 30years ago, maintaing that, if the company is not ready to begin work on the land, the certificate of occupancy be withdrawn as other companies are readily available to invest there, in the state.
The aggrieved lawmakers, notable among whom are, the deputy speaker Hon. Ugonna Ozuruigbo, (Nwangele) Hon. Chinedu Ofor (Onuimo),Hon. Kennedy Ibeh (Obowo),Hon.Obinna Egu (Ngor-Okpala), Hon.Mike Iheanetu (Aboh-Mbaise) Hon.(Mrs) Uju Mbadiwe (Njaba), Hon Ikechukwu Amuka (Ideato-south) Hon. (Mrs) Ngozi Obiefule (Isu) and Hon.Victor Onyewuchi (Owerri West); are of the view that since the multi-national company has long delayed in the installation of takeoff facilities and equipment, even in the face of the industrialization policy by the governor, Okorocha anchored on attracting business investors in the state for even development, the company should quit, to pave way for others willing to invest, so as to suit the state’s economic needs.
However, the NBC led by Mallam Boko had earlier informed the Assembly that it has plans to complete the ground-breaking operations on the site before the end of 2016, after which it begins installations of mega facilities that would be actualized in the year, 2020.
Consequently, the Assembly led by Speaker Ihim, set up an 8-man committee to mandate the company to redirect its master plan, tender evidence of land allocation or risk revocation. The committee is chaired by Hon. Ike Amuka and seven others.

I had to come back to this post..how are we sure that it is not because of this that nbc pronounced that they were going to build a plant in okigwe?was that statement an after thought?

abagoro:
There is nothing wrong with one being Christian, Jew, Muslim or Amali. If we want to reject religious programme s then we should reject all and not be discriminatory. Imo is a circular State and freedom of worship is allowed.

problem is if similar program is in a Kano owned station

I am sure you never thought in the direction of the post you quoted before opening this thread as usual
