Ok o, if you say so..

vanitybutiwanti:
I don't have anything to prove to you, you come from a shithole state.. Even if the hospitals are not in operation, at least you acknowledged that he built them, a memo was sent out in November from the ministry of health, you guys from shithole states do not mind your businesses, your governors are the worst governors in Nigeria, yet yiu voices are tye loudest on social media.

vanitybutiwanti:
The hospitals are in operation and the law school is not an annex of the yenagoa law school, it's in use. He rebuilt secondary schools in Eleme, oyigbo, emouha, obiakpor, ahoada, Harry's town in degema and other places..the problem with you guys, you come from shithole states with underperforming governors but when one doesn't kowtow to your god obi, he becomes an enemy. Where do you come from? Can you compare the quality of projects ongoing in your state to Rivers state, do you live in Rivers state? I live in Rivers and whenever I travel, I'm always eager to return to my state.

vanitybutiwanti:
Shut up! Many of you are uninformed, he built schools and specialist hospitals..

My argument is what the state gets as total revenue..I don't care if more comes from FG or the state.. add everything together..it makes akwa ibom ranks 2nd or 3rd..

No body said budget is available income .. understand me

pocom16:
Exactly akwa ibom earns more in terms of local IGR and fed allocations put together..

How do you satisfy a budget if it isn't with what you earn..

After akwa ibom it is rivers state..but if you wouldn't agree then fine..

If akwa ibom isnt second then it is 3rd..the second must be rivers state..and the margin will be small..

Rivers state has bigger responsibility as it is already a highly populated state with lot of business activities so it makes sense for their governors to focus on improving it's infrastructure...what is in Akwa Ibom that requires Udom building a 10 lane road.. he should put his state money into projects that will bring businesses to that state not building church with Julius berger, several hotels, useless flyovers than can't record 1000 cars daily or pointless skyscraper and airline

pocom16:
Akwa ibom meets atleast 60% of it's yearly budget..

Run your calculations..

It is put Akwa ibom second interns of it yearly income

SmartPolician:
What's working for Lagos is the huge market that has been created in the state. Thanks to her population. Therefore, that free trade zone may not work for Akwa Ibom. Here's the catch: Before you execute a project, you do the feasibility study. He probably did it, and it wasn't viable.

I expected you to write about the seaport because all the seaports in the Delta are not operating at optimal level. Udom has set up many agro-allied industries to create jobs and boost the economy of the state. If you don't know them, google it. This is commendable.

As for the airline, uncle, I am sorry that it wasn't meant to benefit oridnary Akwa Ibom people. It's a source of revenue generation for the state. Today, the airline is acquiring planes to cover many routes across the country. This is the first state-run airline in the country. He deserves a pat on the back for that.

Lest I forget, Udom has built some of the best road infrastructure this administration can boast of. Guess what, it's tax-free, unlike the Lagos you mentioned where people pay tolls to use those facilities.

BTW, I want to see Akwa Ibom State government invest in human capital development and stop her people from doing menial jobs outside the state. Akwa Ibom people are too rich (based on Nigerian standard) to be suffering.

Lastly, my dear brother, a budget doesn't mean money. It means a financial plan. That financial figure is not available anywhere. Governments draft budgets every year, hoping they will use it as guidelines for meeting their annual objectives. Do you know what? That money is not available anywhere and no Nigerian state achieves 100% of its budget.

Just before you reply me, make sure you understood the points I raised here.

pocom16:
Udom Emmanuel is doing absolutely nothing to boost the economy of his states..

Is it coconut refinery and an airline for the rich that builds an economy?

The dullard should have set up a free trade and economic zone like what BAT did in Lekki..
He should have used the billions allocated to him to build his own state port instead of establishing a useless airline that services the rich people across Nigeria instead of his citizens..

Akwa ibom state budget is atleast 600bn (roughly $1.2bn least)..the 2nd Highest in Nigeria .
Why can't he use that money to build a deep sea port and establish a free Zone which wouldnt cost more than $2bn

Instead he wasted money building a 21 story sky scraper, and an airline which doesn't benefit the common Man.

The worst of it is a church in which he contracted Julius beger to build...
Akwa ibom has the money but needs a leader like Dave umahi or Lagos governors to put that money to work

blesdman:
Rivers doing internal roads in 5 LGAs at the same time ...Port Harcourt city, emohua, asari toru, obio Akpor.....etc...numerous to mention. The Governor is a master in project funding and execution. 2 flyovers soon to be completed and commissioned before may 29th. Only despicable haters of good hate him. Nigerians are indeed their own problem

Jones4190:
Dino done cash out from atiku dollars,

Cash out from Okowa you mean

Truth07:
one enemy of Rivers State spotted

honestivo:
Rivers state has agreed to vote out PDP in the state

olisaEze:
Edo State did not vote massively for Obi because he’s an Igbo man, they voted for competence! The tribal sentiment reeking in this post is beyond disgusting and against everything the Obi movement stands for!

ysth:
the only land grabbers and resource grabbers ever known in the history of Nigeria, are fulanis. Know this and know peace. Igbos buy land, rent shops and live peacefully. If you dont want to sell land or rent your shop to an igbo man no one will point a gun to your head.

Web2020:
Get your fact right. Edo people are true friends of Nigeria. Edo is not sentimental. They are supporting competency, not a tribe. If APC had produced Osinbajo, nobody in Edo would have known whether Obi existed. But out of the candidates available right now, obi is the best. That is just it.

SenatePresdo:
You will die, and Igbos will still be.

Who will be your number 2 enemy then? Satan Tormenting you in hell fire? Lmao.

Frustration has killed somebody, there will never be Ijaw Nation, until that Oil finishes.

Then you can have your Ijaw and start fishing for revenue.

Captain8:
bini people have forgotten so soon,,, alright I will not talk,,but I give bini people just one year and they will see their name in biafra...let me see any mumu bini person that will come and cry that ibos are landgrabbing them, so we should go for niger delta republic..

You do not toy with the devil,but binis are forgotten the devil...make I dey watch de event

DMerciful:

DMerciful:
