He will appoint you that doesn't want an Ngwaman to rule. Stooge Fashola,Stooge Akpabio,stooge Obiano,stooge Uduaghan,stooge Jonathan,Stooge Imoken,Stooge Sulivan

why is reappointing ta orji's aids though?like ugochukwu emezuo

Charly68:
So all the billions that Uchendo collected,he wasted it on what. ? If he didn't develop the economic capital of Abia where else did he spend money. In any case the Igbos like to deceive themselves too much.

have you seen where they are praising ta Orji before?

Abagworo:
I believe Okorocha is not leading by example or maybe he is being restricted as a result of his present position. He is trying but he faced a very tough battle with a gang up of Imo elites in his 1st term but yet able to do all he did. Imo industrialising has little or nothing to do with Okorocha but with Imo rich men whose interest is immediate return on investment. Nnewi men did their thing and no living soul can give any Governor credit for that. They did it as a sacrifice to help their people.

However expect accelerated proliferation of home investments by Imolites in the next 4 years. People seem to forget that Okorocha has done only one tenure and he inherited an Imo State destroyed by PDP just like Buhari has done at national level today. He also does not have the resources to offset the PDP years of deficiency in the twinkling of an eye. I have visited everywhere in SS and SE and make bold to say Imo witnessed the highest level of progress in the last 4 years.

to be honest I still have my doubts since his eyes is on the presidency and he would working towards that..hope that would not be another distraction...

emmysoftyou:
bro infact eeh,i am getting piss up with all this men o
anyway,i will still give him a benefit of doubt cos they just started their works recently...
Still hoping and believing...
God is in control..
Imo must be great...amen..

who started which works recently?

ishiamu:
This a major road in aba not even a street after today's rain... jubilee road to hospital road leading to azikiwe road all flooded... Aba people need a messiah instantly else they will groan and moan for the rest of this regime

not sure you can blame this present regime that is barely 5 days..ta Orji I salute

chinolization:
Smile network is owned by Ernest Obiejesi(Obijackson) the owner of oil/gas company Nestoil, he is from Okija. Use Google to find out.

ok just found out in another thisday link because I earlier went to smile web page and I did not see any link to board of directors and the ceo name sounded like and eastern African name

RareDiamond:
Orlu zone already have the largest skill acquisition center in South East zone located in Ohaji/Egbema built by ministry of Niger Delta/NDDC.

it has not started functioning

emmysoftyou:
bro............ yu re so concerns about orlu local gvt but not the local govt from orlu zone.......
Is it because you re from orlu'?
Is orlu the only place in imo state that deserve state university?
You said imo polytechnic does not benefit the people of orlu zone but favoured the people of owerri more.
I smelled selfishness in egojustus.com..
But we re imo people?yes the great imo stars and the people of imo cos we represent them as a whole...
We have other places in imo state that need state university too,lets us join hands to seek the government to develop other places in imo state too..
In akwa ibom state,they have mini towns and major towns,the mini towns re oron,ibeno,ikot abasi,onna and etinan while the major towns re uyo,eket,ikot ekpene and abak..
Very nice place to cool off and catch fun...
am yet to witness mini town in imo state,except all these mini less town like mbaise,mbano(oriagu/umuezeala),ngor okpala(ulakwo)and oguta.they all mini less towns that need a drastic development urgently...
it must not be university in orlu,we need industries or something more than that,it must not be school of engineering in okigwe,we need a lot factories and manufacturer companies there,
Imo state with her 2nd highest population in the east deserves enough firms,industries and enough manufacturing firm..
Rochas from orlu zone is not seeing what am seeing,cos he is there inviting president buhari to come and see his billionaire house instead of acting like imo needs more fund to complete all the uncompleted projects in imo state..
Nnewi man dont ve time for showcasing but works his time to get more things done.

you honestly think rochas is thinking what you are thinking?you think administrative wise rochas is that good?give it to him when it comes to politics but when it comes to administratively project Imo state into finacial bouyancy and industrialization policies I have my doubts

Earlier in this thread some people said isp providers spectranet,swift and smile are owned by igbos...i think we have to verify some information before saying somethings..it is only swift that ceo is Igbo but the chairman is an indian or Pakistani

nwadiuko1:
thanks...
First there is no official complaint of misconduct misappropriation of funds or breach of contract against. Any of the companies you mentioned by the imo state government or anybody for that matter , so it is safe to assume that they completed the work according to the TERMS AND CONDITIONS of the contract....
And my dear there is no such thing as "china roads" until there is concrete and official evidence that the
Above mentioned companies are not competent enough to carry out their chosen duties...it is safe to assume that you
asha80 made a baseless and unfounded allegation against them
Thanks once again

haha ok oo.
You sent me to the cleaners there

http://m.thenigerianvoice.com/news/181193/1/ikpeazu-flags-off-7-new-roads-in-aba-in-first-day-.html

Nwadiuko1 this is the link the question I asked..there is already a thread for it..i cant open the page because I am using a phone...the construction companies engaged are in that link..why should he employ macol and raycon construction companies despite those coys being among the coys responsible for 'china' roads in Imo?

nwadiuko1:
Where da fvck is buhari?

off topic...why did ikpeazu engage the likes of marcon construction ltd and raycon construction ltd for the construction of roads iin aba?is he not aware these are the same companies that are involved in the construction of 'china' roads in Imo?

Cuche:
AKS has money building the port will not be any challenge for them. It is high time our region began to think out of the box. They should start planning. Tell AKS Government why they should complete that sea port and the will deliver
They've always been part of us, stood firmly by us during the civil war even when our brothers from Rivers State chickened out
The Oba of Lagos brouhaha is an eye opener

building of any seaport is on the exclusive list..the state cannot do it alone

Cuche:
River Niger at that Northern boundary is narrow and divided by lands as a result we don't need a big budget bridge to connect Anambra to Kogi State.
Thinking about regional emancipation, that bridge will enhance commence and increase the trade volumes, what I mean is that instead of Northern traders from Kogi, Nassarawa, Gombe, Benue and Taraba going to Lagos to buy goods, they will head to the much closer Onitsha
The same way I am thinking that SE Governors should meet and find a way of getting a high grade road cutting from Akwa*Ibom deep sea port across Abia to Anambra. Such that we will not have need of moving our containers from Lagos

deep sea port yet to materialize?

Chukwugekwu:
don't make blinds aguenment

pls if can't quote me once and make your comments then shift..coal is not in use anywhere in Nigeria now simple

Chukwugekwu:
they don't know that south east use coal to generate more lights to their people

which coal?abandoned Enugu coal?are you ok?

This guys will end up like uwazurike

uduokirika1:
Yeah you are right and the way forward is.....................................?

govts should do exactly what they told the community or communities what the intended to do with the land before being acquired instead of diverting it's use

uduokirika1:
asha80 that was my stance, [size=18pt]WE[/size] both government, Individuals and communities must understand the collective efforts needed to steer the course of development!

in the 50s,60s and 70s a lot of communities in igboland were willing to giving land for anything that would bring development or as we used to say mmepe obodo but that attitude later changed..insincerity of govts had a hand in this

cjrane:
Onitsha and Aba based business men.
When you ask them, the excuse is that they want to use Emirates. Those of them that will still board Ethiopian in Lagos will tell you they prefer the bigger plane in Lagos than the one at Enugu. Which they have never used to begin with.

So how will Emirates,Lufthansa and all those excuses they mention, come to Enugu if nobody is ready to use an international airport in Igboland? Our people are sometimes truly silly.

what?is this the mentality? What daft mentality in this? Or is it a case of semi literacy of most them?

Uduokrika1 ibeto's issue with nkalagu cement was not about land itself but elechi's archaic thinking of domination

cjrane:
You are absolutely right about International airport access to thriving business.
Our people are really funny.We understand all these advantages of having a functional airport, we know the other parts of Nigeria had refused to have the airport in Igboland functional to deny us the advantages. Yet we refuse to patronize our own . We have the Enugu International airport almost idle, yet most of them prefer going to use the Lagos Intl. for the same trips to Dubai and China. If you add the cost of local flight from Asaba to Lagos to board the international flight, it is considerable. While they could easily board the same flight at Enugu and fly out directly.
Now tell me if that makes sense?

is it for those based in east or Lagos?

chizobamgbume:
Check out one of those shabby works.

where is this?

Ponponkon:
I can swear with my blood that you're from Abia State but you are so ashamed to name your village that's why you claimed to hail from Imo State. For your info,every illegal structure will soon go down.

better not yarn rubbish here..my argurement with abagworo on those houses has nothing to do with illegal structure but the aesthetic of the building which is not peculiar to aba..i have already told you where I am from and whether you believe it or not is your perogative..just learn to control your emotions..dont really see where I said illegal structures should not be brought down

BuddahMonk:
Less competition but access to big market, Kano took the destiny abi fate of the most surrounding states in the North but in East there are always competitors around, both manufacturers and importers.

Golden Oil is in Onitsha too.
One Groundnut oil coy there at Upper Iweka beside Ochanja.
There just to many of such coys in Anambra and Abia state so the market here is saturated.

well chicason as at last year was building palm oil plant in nnewi so no issue of nearness to raw materials there.

ChimaAdeoye:
Buddah my brother,please continue speaking up. Don't be deterred by the numerous yoruba monikers that hate and would want to ridicule objective and strategic thinking Igbos like you. In Nigeria, everyone thinks about how to site things within their region and state EXCEPT Igbos. Then they cry loudest when such is burned to the ground by irate mobs especially in the north. I remember in one of Chikason's speaches, he mentioned that he lost half of his profit by siting his groundnut oil factory in Nnewi than Kano. Luckily for him, his factory is still survivng today while another Igboman that had a vegetable oil factory in Kaduna was destroyed and burnt to the ground in 2000! Now who was smarter? Chikason that took lower profit margin but safeguarded his investment for his children or the Igbo industrialist in Kaduna that made a lot of money,but today his factory no longer exist?

Like Aguiyi Ironsi that refused to acknowledge that a coup could happen to him, many Igbos simply cannot learn until it is too late.Those that want to invest in Yoruba and hausaland without anything to fall back on in their state can continue to do so. Yorubas and even the Oba of Lagos have told them that they will end up in the Lagoon, but they'd rather laugh it off. i am watching them in 3D goggles. i just don't want anyone coming back to cry "had i known" to me.
[size=14pt]This is the time to READ the hand writing on the wall and act wisely.[/size]

question is though why should half of chicason profit be lost on siting that factory in nnewi than if it was sited in Kano?

BuddahMonk:
My brother outsiders always wish they have billionaires like us but they don't know our so called billionaires are nothing but pains in the asss to us.

Emeka Offor has no investment in Anambra after destroying the state.

The only thing Arthur Eze did for his people was attracting LG headquaters at Ukpo after running down Premier Brewery Onitsha.

Chris Uba has no bungalow in Anambra after destroying the state.

Andy Uba has nothing after destroying the state.

Ifeanyi Uba can only boast of one filling station in Nnewi and a poorly run football club.

Obijackson is trying shaa but enough of his philanthropy but more of investments and job creations.

Look at Uche Oga of Masters Energy is building Energy City at Isikwuato.

If Atiku were to be an Anambra man he will prolly tell you that there is no seaport in Anambra so no need to site University and feedmill there.

Cecilia Ibru and hubby took their Univ in their city of Warri.


Nobody has ever build anything in Igboland except Igbos, this is a very disturbing reality

Its only Nnewi people that always remember home, they believe that a tenant doesn't plant flower.

I think obijackson should be cut some slack abeg...building power plant is not moi moi especially when your kinsmen who are supposed to support you are busy dragging you to court over land over a project that would in the end benefit them

Abagworo:
What a good move to start of road construction but the issue is completing them. I think he should embark on revenue drive or fixed infrastructure levy on house to house basis. Finally something needs to be done about tge Igbotic houses.

you better live and get used to those houses because they are going nowhere
