Obere4u: Na so Bella take start for Kogi, promising things will shape, before you know it, 4 years is up. U made mention of Assumpta to umuguma road. Can you tell us when the photo you posted is taken because as it stands, no work is ongoing there
I never made mention of any assumpta to umuguma..which photo did i post?
Obere4u: Forget about partisan politics, the contractors only went and did some land leveling and left, same happened in world bank. It's too early to judge but Ihedioha is slow. We all pray he comes good though.
Keep your insults to yourself.
'and left'..which particular road are we talking about here?slow? Rochas was fast and then what happened?it is this mentality that Rochas saw in imo and used to his advantage and finished the state...ngwangwa things without painstaking evaluation
chukel: liar. He just paid 2 months of the 30 months arrears the thief rochas owed. Ihedioha has spent 6 months. He has not paid any pension of the 6 months he has spent. You useless mbaise people will die from your lies.
goes to show you have deep seated issues with mbaise people that you have to liberate your mind about ..it is later you now confirmed the truth..free your mind
somalianprince: No mind the clown, he is an inferior Igbo from Imo state. He is only jittery and bitter that the airport project construction has taken off.
ANSMEDIA: DonClimax, the cargo logistics solutions located in the business hub of Nigerian Lagos and Rivers State - the main gateway for all imports and exports. The company began operations in 2003, efficiently operating as a clearing-forwarding, import, haulage and warehousing organization. Donclimax Bonded Terminal, located at the company’s corporate headquarters where it is easily accessible to the major ports in Apapa, Lagos and Onne town of Port Harcourt, DonClimax is a private owned Nigerian Company,founded by Mr. Obelle Ikenna Donates from Anambra State, he's about to open his bonded terminals in Nawfia Dunukofia local government area, Anambra State.
QuotaSystem: Did anyone tell you the other rail lines aren't lucrative as well? Do you know the level of trade and commerce between Lagos and Kano? Do you have the figures to reach such an assumption? For instance, I know for a fact that the Kaduna - Abuja daily rail service makes over N2m per trip, and it's always overbooked even with inflated prices (even after they had to officially raise prices due to demand).
I would ordinarily like development projects implemented across the country because the truth is we are all beneficiaries (I've used the Onitsha Niger bridge myself more than once), but I'm simply restating the political reality that goodwill & diplomacy are needed if you want to be made a priority among competing interests.
QuotaSystem: Is the 2nd Niger bridge not being built? Roads in the east aren't being worked on? Nobody said the region is or should be completely ignored. The point is you cannot dictate to the government which projects to implement when you lack the political goodwill to do so thanks to your endless attacks.
As for grandstanding as a strategy to attract infrastructure, good luck .
lol for a country that is gradually going broke and through your own words looking for competing needs common sense would have dictated to you that projects that command lucrative returns as this rail line which is written in the article would command higher priority but well this is Nigeria where emotion trumps logic and common sense...also the reason why the country is in the state it is in
Also for your info nc(markudi and jos) and north east(maidugiri) are on this same rail line..I am sure too they are being punished too abi
fergie001: To add to this: The Federal Court of Appeal and later the Supreme Court on the 22nd of October 2019 invalidated the nomination of Uche Nwosu Ugwumba as flagbearer of the Action Alliance.
The APP had petitioned that Uche Nwosu Ugwumba was a card-carrying member of the APC as at when he got the nomination of the AA-ticket.
The Federal High Court in Abuja under Justice Inyang Ekwo had in August 2019 called it ludicrous and "immoral", thereby affirming that Uche Nwosu remains disqualified from that elections and his nomination null and void.
The said AA and Uche Nwosu had approached the Appeal Court which also supported the ruling of the lower court and even apportioned damages of N100,000 to the AA and Uche Nwosu.
Ihedioha's appeal ( on the same matter) at the Supreme Court was also upheld, meaning AA had no valid candidate in the last gubernatorial elections in Imo state.
Hence, like Zamfara, Uche Nwosu's votes are voided...there begins the march for 2/3 majority as argued by Ararume and Uzodinma.
Yampotatocarrot: I don't know if you are just trying to be sarcastic, because I don't want to believe that you are actually serious about these your comments about the state capitals
Too much concentration of developmental indices in one location has negative effect, whether we like it or not (an example is Lagos)
Any reasonable government will want to spread their developmental projects thereby spreading development across the state
Remember, just one zone can't give you the governorship position
That's Kikake's point and I AGREE WITH HIM IN TOTALITY.
On a side note, Ihedioha needs to set the ground running.. enough of all the noise making, let's get down to action
not sure what noise making you are talking about though..from this thread it seems nothing is even said about whatever he is doing
switlily25: Awww,you tried but sorry,I am not convinced! Ihedioha is a man who loves to socialize with with stars and if he doesn't recognize Mercy,the first female bbnaija pepper dem winner as one,its pathetic!
On that naze nekede ihiagwa obinze road if adequate construction is done to construct superb drainage that will carry water to otamiri river than I am afraid this will be a waste of time
zoo estates former zoological garden..please before zoo estates was built was that zoological garden like a green area?if yes then that location shouldn't have been touched
It's okay to hate Rochas all you want, but it's very irrational for the incumbent governor to allow the project end up in ruins. The same projects he used taxpayers' money to build?
I don't know why young people like you will allow hate becloud your reasoning. Who did this to the black man?
I actually hope those flyovers aren't one of the projects that you feel are supposed to be maintained..at least that one I am very sure about..if for anything it is actually supposed to be brought down as the the entire structure very faulty
Coldie: Una eyes go clear soon. U guys judged the chap wrongly. The only dent u had on him was that he married Rocha's daughter and nothing more.
nonsense talk..for him to have overseen the destruction of owerri masterplan with foolish constructions and expansions that eventually led to flooding becoming rampant in owerri is enough to write him off
Coldie: IMO don enter one chance but those fuckers will never know. They keep saying reason why there has been no activity on this page was because the previous govt invested in propaganda.
That most of the nairaland posters were pro APC. Go to IMO state government page, same thing no new activity or project, go to twitter same thing, even on Facebook. But they all keep living in denial. Our people are not too reasonable, some always have a foolish part that is always adamant. That's the reason why u would see an average person supporting Gej despite the fact that they can't actually point out a project by him.
Ihedioha and his family will not invest in the state I can bet on it, they will take there investments either abroad or Lagos or other states but not IMO. Cause they know what they did to the investment of Rocha's and his family in the state, they won't want same fate to befall them.
But our people would never listen, neither do they like to hear the truth.
Imo1stson: I am not your Abagworo or whatever you call me but a serious Imo citizen that dwells in truth and progress of my State. We can't all keep quiet while our State is run aground because we support one politician or the other. I love Imo State more than Rochas and Ihedioha so our development satisfies me more than their politics. I'm really not happy with the way things are going presently.
A board has already been set up to that effect and would oversee the transition of a vast technical know-how and efficient management of the moribund Adapalm as well as other moribund industries in Imo.
The best is yet to come!
not hopefully because because as far as govt in is control of the day to day running of adapalm then it will never run optimally
hammerT: Am I the only one that think we need rural area planning commission to surpervise building construction and make sure they use satellite mapping and drones to carefully mandate the positioning of buildings in a befitting way, as opposed to wat we have now with people just building anyhow.
it is not too late to start rural planning, so we can still have place to farm.
eTECTIV: And yet bigots and tribal moruns won't allow sanity reign on dis forum... Imagine an Igbo man inviting a Yoruba performer to his wedding. Dat was wen Nigeria made sense
Euegene100001: I’m currently serving in imo owerri .See that place called orji it’s complete trash once it rains u practically swim back home .Once I look up and the weather looks some how I just seat at home .Edo state Benin to be precise is like heaven were imo owerri is. The funniest thing is the current governor is busy destroying statues built by rochas instead of spending money trying to make things work again .Una ehh
Abagworo: Okorocha started work from 2011 and most of these roads have lasted till this year so there's no case of inferior anything. Everything that spoilt during his tenure including natural disaster were made headline here on Nairaland so I doubt any negative news of Okorocha is hidden.
Based on personal experience Imo is not as bad as other States presently and the issue of road is a national emergency. Right here in Port-Harcourt the East-West road has been cut off at Nkpolu for close to 8 months and also cut off at Adamark further down heading to Eleme junction. You cannot travel from Port-Harcourt to Obigbo which is just a 5km distance because of the poor State of Aba road etc. I also know it's same across Nigeria and not limited to Imo State, Anambra, Abia, Ogun, Rivers, Enugu or Kogi.
your first paragraph is just pure self deceit and lies
marshman293: This thread is dead as a log of wood.very boring and sickling. Since okorocha left office everything in imo state just became dormant and feebled. That's the price to be paid for embarking on a vendetta mission
globemoney: 2020 Anambra Budget: N6 billion proposed for cargo airport construction
The Anambra State Government has set aside the sum of N6 billion for the construction of the Umueri International Cargo Airport near the state capital, Awka.
This was revealed when Governor Willie Obiano presented the state’s estimated budget of N137.1billion to the State House of Assembly.
The Details: N22.2 billion was allocated for the construction of roads and bridges while N6.98 billion was earmarked for implementing strategic initiatives in the health sector.
Why this matters: Obiano said he is investing into the airport to fulfil the promise he made during his 2017 governorship campaign. He noted that an international airport in the state will bring economic development and increase the income base in the state.
What you should know: Worried by the delay of the project since 2017, the traditional ruler of Umueri Community, Igwe Ben Emeka tasked the government to complete the project as soon as possible, seeing that the Arial survey equipment has been released.
The Aerial survey equipment was impounded at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu by the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), until appropriate clearance was obtained for the Chinese Consortium involved in the project.
About the Umueri Cargo Airport: In 2017, Governor Willie Obiano launched the Umueri Cargo Airport project. Obiano said the ‘Airport City Project’ would be developed on a 1500-acre site and would feature two runways, an aviation fuel facility, aircraft maintenance facility, airport hotel, business park and international convention centre.
The project is expected to generate 1200 direct and 3600 indirect jobs. The project is estimated to cost more than $2 billion and will be developed through a partnership between the Anambra State Government, Orient Petroleum Resources and Elite International Investments. Elite International Investments will provide all funds under a build, operate, manage and transfer agreement.
Anambra Airport City Infrastructure Limited allocated a 75% equity stake to Elite International Investments, 20% to Orient Petroleum Resources Limited and 5% to the State Government.
Ezewuzie01: There is no basis for comparison in this regard. Anambra residents are too immersed into business and money acquisition to be distracted by trends on Twitter. Most northerners on the other hand are not empowered or literate to even access Twitter.
well make we dey see..I saw that hashtag yesterday but I actually thought it was going to quieting down today
VAQAXY: Stop disturbing the peace of this thread or else you wanna roll with me. Pay more attention on your useless , backward and worthless imo state.
Anambra is moving forward in all spheres of development. Anambra is APGA and APGA is Anambra. That few PDP miscreants assembled on Twitter to cry over nothing but to deceive some gullible fellows doesn't mean anything.
Ezewuzie01: Genuine Anambra voters are not on Twitter. It is usually the diaspora who live outside the state that are involved in such so there is no cause for worry.
this is the same view we have on northern voters..never knew the time will come when Anambra voters will be equated with them
Unbiased1: With what I'm seeing online, the end of Obiano and APGA has finally come. You guys that update this thread are really leaving lots of things out.
That naze nekede ihiagwa obinze road needs to be done to high quality..I wonder how from 1999 to date that roads that hosts 2 federal institutions would have such a bad road network
