 Politics › Re: Creation Of "Oil River State" From Akwa-ibom And Rivers State by Atouke: 9:08am On Aug 18, 2014 |
ijawcitizen: You lots are highly ignorant people who would never learn. You claim eastern Obolo and Ibeno are you Ibibio relatives and accuse us (Ijaws) of expansionist tendencies. I don't blame you lot a bit, its all because of the quietness and peaceful disposition of the Ijaws whom you've oppressed for so long and even started killing. I wish I could say more but be rest assured that Oil Rivers state will be created and the 2 Ijaw LGAs in Akwa ibom must be part of it. You better update ur knowledge of you so called Ibibio territory because these Ijaws are not ur properties nor ur slaves. Updating ur imperial anti-ibeno stance would help you from developing high BP when Oil Rivers is created. and the worst you guys could do is imitate shekau to terrorize Ibeno and Obolo ijaws, something you started doing since during the civil war and ofcourse nobody knew about it because Ijaws have not retaliated yet.Ijawcitizen where are you from? |

I am in Awe! this gov. Akpabio too much o. The day i visited Akwa Ibom 4months ago i was speechless in the transformation that this governor has brought to Uyo. In my village, several miles from the state capital, he built a brand new access road constructed by setraco with 2 bridges on it. both primary and secondary school all renovated with new additional blocks and a library in the secondary school a luxury i never enjoyed when i attended those sshool. This is a governor that knows how to use public funds for public good. His successor needs to focus on ways to industalize the state and create more jobs for Akwa Ibomites. 4 Likes |

ijawcitizen: It is nothing but insensitivity, jealousy and ingratitude. The Ijaw LGAs of Eastern Obolo & Ibeno have been feeding the state for decades now without benefiting up 1% of deserved development. Yet they still want the Ijaw people to remain in slavery as minorities to Ibibio people! This is the greed Niger deltans are yet to overcome. What is wrong with sticking to their God-given lands and allow Ijaws to do whatever they wish with our God-given lands and communities? This is unimaginable evil from our own Niger Delta brothers. Ijaws have been nothing but good brothers and even protectors to all Niger Deltans. The Ijaw nation is moving forward and there is nothing these ingrates who do not even represent the mindset of the average Akwa Ibomites can do about itslowpoke you dont know what you are talking about. |

| Politics › English Speaking Southern Camerooun Seeks Independence From Biyas Missrule by Atouke(op): 8:10pm On Aug 08, 2014 |
group of Cameroonians identifying themselves as the Southern Cameroon National Council (SCNC) is calling for a separate state to be carved out of the Republic of Cameroon and named Southern Cameroon. They say they feel marginalized by President Paul Biya’s policies, which according to them relegates them to the background in national affairs. South Cameroonian protesters in Washington DC Sahara Reporters Media The group converged outside the premises of the US Department of State in Washington DC where President Obama was meeting 50 African heads of government hoping to make their voices heard. Holding placards and a proposed flag for Southern Cameroon, the group chanted and distributed flyers to passers-by. Jude Ozughen, convener of the English-speaking Cameroonians protesting at the US-Africa summit in Washington DC Sahara Reporters Media Convener Jude Ozughen who is also the North America Chairperson of the group took our reporter through a quick history of Cameroon and why they are protesting. According to him, English-speaking Southern Cameroonians were given the option to either join Nigeria or to stay within a federation with Cameroon by a UN sponsored plebiscite at independence in 1961. He said a third option should have been to give the region autonomy to form a nation by itself. “The third option would have been outright independence; achieving independence as a separate political entity; Southern Cameroonians achieving independence by themselves. But unfortunately that option was not given to Southern Cameroonians”, he lamented. This he said is what the group is now asking for especially taking into consideration how French-speaking Cameroon marginalizes them. “The English-speaking people of Cameroon, called the Southern Cameroonians, have been subjected to annexation and colonialism and we are struggling to extricate ourselves out of that annexation” he said. “And when Mr. Biya came to power in 1982, and he has been president since then, the situation of annexation and colonialism continues” he added. He said a case was presented before the African Commission on Human and Peoples Rights (ACHPR) where a ruling was made in 2009 calling for constructive dialogue between the 2 parties. Mr. Ozughen added that even though Southern Cameroonians have always demonstrated the intent to follow through with the dialogue, Mr. Biya’s government has totally ignored them and the edict. Chantale Teta, convener of the French-speaking Cameroonian protesters at the US-Africa Summit in Washington DC Sahara Reporters Media Further down the road, there was another protest by, this time by French-speaking Cameroonians, also asking for Mr. Biya to step down from the presidency. Convener Chantale Teta told Sahara Reporters they wanted to drw the world’s attention to President Biya's bad governance, and how long he has entrenched himself in power. “Paul Biya finish [sic] our country. Paul Biya is a dictator. He is not different from Saddam Hussein or Gaddafi or all those presidents. 32 years is enough”. She also called the Cameroonian president a criminal and asked for his detention in the US. Behind her, the group chanted: “Paul Biya must go...in a nursing home.” There were many protests during the just ended US - Africa Leaders Summit in Washington DC by several groups seeking to send diverse messages to different African leaders as well as the convener of the event, US President Barak Obama. The protests however were contained by a rather stringent security arrangement, making it difficult for protestors to get their messages across directly to the intended recipients. http://saharareporters.com/2014/08/07/cameroonian-group-seeks-secession |

Apartheid In Akwa Ibom State: Democracy we had hoped will bring good governance all the way. For the people of Oron ethnic nationality comprising of five local governments namely : Okobo,Mbo, Urue offong-Oruko, Udung-Uko, pain, anguish, gnashing of teeth, grief and tears is what democracy, as unleashed by the Chief Dr. Godswill Obot Akpabio(CON) has brought our way. Despite the fact that these five local governments account for over 80% of the 99% revenue accruing to the state from oil revenue(The state earns only 1% revenue from other sources of revenue) the Oro people have no idea of what "uncommon Transformation " feels like or looks like. To have an idea of what "uncommon transformation " feels like you have to travel all the way to the Annang speaking part of the state where Akpabio hails from. Tired of waiting for the "uncommon transformation " to reach them well over 7years of the 8years tenure of Akpabio, the people of Oro decided to put up a documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZMqdjTXQvs Calling on government to come to their aid owing to gargantuan level of infrastructure decay in their community. They managed to put together the required funding to pay AIT to air the documentary only to be told that Akpabio had ordered AIT not to air the said documentary. Imagine what it feels like to be oppressed and cannot speak out. This can only be APARTHEID. Please join in giving voice to the voiceless. Please append your initial and rebroadcast to give voice to the oppressed. God bless you. Hon Robinson Uwak |
| Foreign Affairs › Ghana Unable To Pay University Lecturers Salary For 8months As Economy Tanks by Atouke(op): 12:54am On Aug 05, 2014 |
Ghanaian Economist Dr. Theo Richardson says Ghana’s economy will crash by June this year if the Bank of Ghana continues with its kneejerk measures to rescue the cedi. “The government is facing liquidity problems and if we don’t get the appropriate remedies to address the issues at hand the situation may worsen and by June the economy may crash,” Dr. Richardson said. He stressed: “I said if they don’t address the fundamental problems facing the economy, by June the country’s economy will crash because the government has not even paid University Lecturers since last year among other pressing issues which needs to be address.” Dr. Richardson was speaking on Adom News about recent measures announced by the central bank save the cedi from falling further, after an all time 7.2% depreciation against foreign currencies. As part of the measures, the BOG ordered all commercial banks not to issues cheques and cheque books in foreign currency again, not to give loans in foreign currency again, and to allow business people travelling to cash on only US$10,000. But Dr. Richardson said the BOG should have given about three months notice to the dollar account holders, particularly importers and exportes, so they could get enough dollars for transactions, instead of stopping dollar transactions with immediate effect. He described the BOG’s directive as “very harsh” for businesses, adding that it has a potential of crashing the economy by June if they are not reversed quickly. Dr. Richardson explained that the BoG’s new policies would force investors and business men and women to take drastic steps that could make things worse for the economy. He noted for instance that the US$10,000 ceiling for people travelling will only boost a foreign exchange black market, and cause the dollar rate to go even higher. Meanwhile, the Central Bank has increased the Monetary Policy rate from 16% to 18%, which means banks can now borrow from the central bank at 18% interest rate, which now threatens to raise interest rates on loans as well. Dr. Richardson believes the BOG and government need to rethink the measure they are putting in place to revamp their economy because those measures are rather threat. Antiquated Measures Meanwhile, MP for New Juabeng South, Dr. Mark Osei Assibey, who is also an economist agreed with Dr. Richardson, saying that the measures the BOG announced were “antiquated” and rather pose a danger to the future of the economy. He said: “BOG has brought back 1983 measures put in place by the Rawlings government to save the cedi but those measures did not work and they will not work now.” Dr. Assibey Yeboah noted that it is normal for the cedi be under pressure at this time of the year, when importers are cashing lots of foreign currency to go pay for goods the credit for the Christmas holidays. He said an effective economic management team should be aware of this and know what steps to take ahead of time to keep the depreciation at a minimal level. “Some depreciation occurs in the cedi around this time of the year but this year it is 7.2% and that is unacceptable,” he said. The BOG recently pumped some US$20million into the economy as part of measures to boost the cedi, but the MP said the BOG needs to do more than that because US$20million is not enough to meet the needs of even one company. “They must pump more of our foreign reserves into the economy – I don’t know what they are stashing the foreign reserves for – this is the time for them to fall on it to save the cedi and the economy as a whole and quit this antiquated measures,” the MP said. http://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/artikel.php?ID=300182 |
| Politics › Breaking News: Gov. Akpabio Stops Robinson Uwak’s Documentary On AIT by Atouke(op): 12:38am On Aug 05, 2014*. Modified: 2:45pm On Aug 08, 2014 |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZMqdjTXQvs The anti-democratic tendencies of Akwa Ibom state governor, Chief Godswill Akpabio received a major boost with the stopping, today, of a documentary scheduled for airing on the network of African Independent Television (AIT) at the instance of the governor. Hon Robinson Awak, the member representing Oron Federal Constituency at the House of Representatives, had following his recent crusade for attention to the rot in his constituency, had prepared a one hour documentary on the utter decay of infrastructure in Oro land. The documentary was scheduled to be aired today, August 4, 2014. Few minutes to the time, the television station got in touch with him that the programme has been “differed”. Not satisfied with the import of his documentary being differed, the lawmaker made further inquiries and was told that the Akwa Ibom state governor had ordered that the tape should not be played. Uwak was thereafter asked to come and get back his money, Satisfied with his executive use of powers, the governor put a call through to the Representative and spent an hour on the phone, cajoling him on the why he should not put his government in bad light by showing the documentary. He told Uwak to come to the lodge for a better approach to the special case of Oro marginalization. He promised that the lawmaker would be accorded access when the lawmaker informed him that he had remained inaccessible. The documentary was a response to the challenge by government apologists that Oro land has been treated the same way other areas in the state had been treated by the Akpabio administration. Speaking to our correspondent on the issue, an aide said, “It (The documentary) showcased for the world to see firsthand another side of the uncommon transformation going on in Akwa Ibom state. It was supposed to be used as a counter poise to the serial and wanton use of the media to give an impression that all is too well with the state.” Meanwhile the Oro-born lawmaker has threatened to put the documentary on CNN and dared the governor to bribe his way out of the global media attention it would present. He wrote shortly after the botching of his documentary show on his facebook; “Only the guilty are afraid. Everyday Your Excellency, you air your documentary "Uncommon Transformation" across television stations. I have never gone to bribe any television station to stop it. Your actions today is undemocratic as you have attempted to silence the voice of the voiceless. I will still advice that the concerns of the Oro people be urgently addressed otherwise you may need to fuel your jet and head to CNN to stop the next documentary. “I wish you a safe flight Sir”. This is one of a series of statements put out by the lawmaker to call attention to what he calls “criminal and indecent marginalization” of his Oro land. He insists that if his crusade for attention to Oro land would cost him a second term ticket, that he was ready. He decried the lopsided development going on in the state, referring to the governor, for effect, as the “uncommon transformer of Annang land”. In an attempt to dispel the insinuation that Oro had been marginalised, the Akwa Ibom state Commissioner for Information and Communication, Mr. Aniekan Umanah, took a swipe at the lawmaker calling his statement a “dishonourable verse”. Umanah noted that the governor has developed the state evenly and drew the attention of the lawmaker to such infrastructure as airport, 49 urban roads, Ibaka seaport and the bridge at Etebi Ewang. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Weekly-Insight-Newspapers/169689976414126 |
| Politics › Imo Govt To Build N16bn Mega Market At Mgbidi by Atouke(op): 2:45am On Jul 31, 2014 |
OWERRI - In its bid to convert Mgbidi, Oru West Local Government Area into a commercial city, Imo State government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding, MoU, with a private developer to build a N16 billion international market in the town. The proposed market, which is to be known as Heartland Gateway International Market, Mgbidi, is aimed at creating a one-spot business environment, as well as boost the economy of the state. The Chief Executive Officer of promoters of the project, Pastor Nath Omoruyi, disclosed this in his address to Ohanaeze Ndigbo, during the pre-construction site visit to the market. According to Omoruyi, the MoU gives the promoters the leeway to design, build, manage, operate and otherwise hold assets of and title to all promoters of the project. He assured that the market would be a modern and very organised market place, as well as serve as a launching pad for several business developments. "Due to popular demand from our various off-takers, especially Ohanaeze Ndigbo, we are acquiring more land and adjusting our designs, thereby increasing the number of shopping units and warehouses to 10,000 units, but this will only be realised at the completion of a second phase," Omoruyi said. He explained that the construction was estimated to last two years, pointing out that the first phase would be completed in 12 months. Omoruyi, who also spoke on the viability of the project and its direct benefits, said that upon completion, the volume of trade and business transactions would be between N400 million and N500 million daily. According to him, this will guarantee a good return on in vestment for any investor. "The high volume of trade and daily business activities with the attendant job creation would create an enabling environment for the establishment of various industries and other commercial ventures whose services, products and goods would be exchanged daily at the market," he said. He then assured that the market would provide an enabling environment for mega investment and subsequent economic growth. http://odili.net/news/source/2014/jul/29/306.html |

| Politics › Governor Lamido Berates Jonathan Administration by Atouke(op): 3:47pm On Jul 18, 2014 |
Governor Sule Lamido lashed out at the Jonathan administration for what he called its failure to address Nigeria’s ills and the leadership is “totally disconnected with the people, while all its policies are formulated in parallel with the needs, plight and interest of the common man and the country.” Lamido also condemned the National Conference, the government approach to the Boko Haram killings and abandonment of projects in his state, among others. Receiving a delegation of the Bank of Agriculture in his office led by the Managing Director Dr. Falalu Santuraki, Governor Lamido lamented that the Auyo irrigation scheme was abandoned for over 30 years by the Federal Government and expressed regret that the promises made by President Jonathan to release N10 billion for the project and the reassurance by Vice President Namadi Sambo when he visited three years ago had not been fulfilled. He also said the dualisation of Kano-Maiduguri federal road, which was started more than eight years ago, remained uncompleted describing it as a manifestation of lack of seriousness from the leaders. The Governor accused the President of gathering elders and respectable nationals to be embarrassing themselves in the name of national conference pointing out that, “Some comments and statements from some delegates to the conference is disappointing and a threat to the unity of the nation. “It is unfortunate that our last line of hope, which comprises the emirs, clerics and elder statesmen, has been assembled somewhere and are busy insulting one another in the name of national conference. Believe me, if the situation continues, our nation’s unity is in danger,” he said. The governor added: “If the PDP or APC members of the House of Assembly abuse one another, it is understandable because it is democracy for one party to challenge another.” Governor Sule Lamido further stated that the administration is full of deceit and lackadaisical attitude to people’s needs and interests. “It is quite unfortunate that today in Nigeria; hundreds of innocent people are killed, like chicken on a daily basis for no just reason and nobody cared to talk about it.” He said: “It is only in Nigeria that $20billion would be declared missing from the public treasury, but no one cared to talk about it because leaders can dare any huge consequences in bargaining and securing their political interests”. “The masses are today living in agony due to high level of injustice, denial, imposition, abuse of office ensured by the tyranny of bad leadership.” The delegation had earlier praised Lamido’s support for agriculture, and proposed a N1billion minimal interest loan to support irrigation for farmers at the Hadejia Valley, with minimal interest. http://www.jigawastate.gov.ng/news_detail.php?id=63 5 Likes |

ROSSIKE: Atouke, Please stop spoiling the thread by including streets with open gutters. If it's got no sidewalks and covered drains it's NOT worth posting or appreciating.Happy new year to you! Uyo has more side walks and closed drains than any city in Nigeria that i know of, However most of the older roads were designed without provision of covered drains nor sidewalks which has become the hallmark of this present administration. hopefully the older roads will be upgraded to the standard of the new roads. But the goodnews however, is that when it comes to the city of Uyo, open drains and lack of sidewalks are the exception, as opposed to most cities in Nigeria where open drains, lack of street light and sidewalks are the rule I appreciate your concern but can't help the situation at the moment.but will put it into future perspective. |
