All our universities shud be made autonomous. Let d FG run a student loan package. Let student work during holidays 2 pay dia loan, dis will help dem get job experience. Let researchers in d universities make inventions dat will attract funds frm companies dat want 2 cormercialise them. Too much lazy unproductive graduates evriwie, dats wat free or cheap education produces. Evribody must be a university graduate, we nid more technical colleges, monotechnics n polytechnics to train d middle class manpower which is engine dat drives development.

APC and overtaxing

Veri serious reconstruction is going on in UNN now. I will post d pix wen most of d works are completed

Other places i hv visited dat r not state capitals but are doing veri well include:
Warri (oil and gas)
Onitsha (cormercial i.e. large markets)
Zaria (too much federal presence)
Aba (industrial)

Kano
PH
Enugu

Fashiola is building poultry farm instead of providing loan 2 small farmers n unemployed grdaduates who will like venture into it n dey r clapping him. By d tym dey wake up 2 d reality of capitalism and modern imperialism dia region wud hv bn totally conqured economically. FG shud hasten d sale of our refineries so dat unproductive element dat enjoy govt freebies will be sent packing . Coscharis shud start assembling immediately

He is d president of nigeria nt president of d igbos

ngozievergreen: innoson is the first indigenous black plant.
read it off everywhere

INDIGENOUS is d keyword. Hw cn we produce local brands dat cn compete when sm ppl kip "attracting" foreign invaders

Abagworo: I would like most people criticizing Igbos and accusing them falsely are themselves tribal jingoists. It is only when it comes to Igbos that the negative voices are taken serious. I'm an Igbo man and I've always supported progressive ideology even though I belong to no political party. I'm the hardest core supporter of Amaechi and Rochas right from when they were in APGA and PDP till this day they've found themselves in APC.

Rochas is the only Igbo leader that can think about Igbos working together to build that bridge and not beg but he's been attacked by his fellow Igbos like Peter Obi and. Theodore Orji just because of jealousy that he's more likeable than them. If Ngige wasn't rigged out in this last election, people would have seen what its like when 2 brothers co-operate to achieve. Rochas has already built like 5 short bridges in Owerri alone that I've seen. 4 across Nworie river and one across Otamiri river.

Lagos-Ibadan express way dat pass tru 3 "progressives" states nko? Didnt we all hear dia crying and beggings to FG. See ur mouth, collaborate n build a bridge dat is half se half ss. Sm of u dnt evn kw dat geopolitical zones r nt recognised by d constitution

evantical: If I may ask, apart from federal govt, which state will be regarded as the owner of this Niger brigde ?Delta or Anambra.

dats d point most ppl r missing. Fashola and amaechi cn build bridges in dia states wit billions of dollars bt a bridge connecting two geopolitical zones must be built by FG even if it costs one naira

Sloan: Where is the money or did you keep money in the pocket of the government? Remember that the republican igbos build their infrastructure and not the government, hence a small government and low taxes >> low IGR! Except you collect money from the oil of Nigeria, you cannot build the bridge? Lagos just built a bridge about the length of the one you are crying for FG, don't you have state governments ni? I just want that bridge to drop into the Niger overnight (to reduce casualties).

govt build infrasture, we build buisness establishments. If bridges r allowed 2 be built by individuals n and any amount imposed without govt interference u wud hv seen uncountable numba of bridges crossing d Niger. 4 example, in housing, u cnt see all those nönesese houses u c in oda places hia in SE. D bridge in question connects SE and SE so FG must do it. If we had a soverign govt we wud hv made laws allowing individuals 2 build bridges, roads etc. Rememeba SE was d first 2 build a private university (MADONNA). Jst watch and see hw SE will be d 1st 2 hv stable power

Cn u imagine, make d bridge fall na. A massive bridge connecting two geopolitcal zönes, n sm fools who dnt travel r talking nonesense. Get it into ur head, d bridge is half SE half SS. It must be done by FG.

agbameta: 30 years of crying to the same worthless FG is not enough? If Fashola can build the best bridge in West Africa in less than 3 years, how come the FG of Nigeria and the governors in the SE can not build a little bridge in 30 years even with their donated electoral votes for the Aso Rock dullard who is obviously taking them for granted...?

How hard is it to build this bridge? Must people die and perish before their corrupt, lazy and incompetent leaders lift a finger?

fashola built a bridge in lagos state. Niger bridge is half anambra, half Delta. Our one kobo will neva go into it.

So nothing is development until its done by a governor? Well ur unproductive lazy a.rsses dat are being sacked by d current wave of privatization frm govt establishment u hv paralysed cn go 2 ur region n continue ur socialist govt while serious capitalist (both local n foreign) invade n dominate u

They cant even commit the kind of crime that brings money. Enter malaysia or Thailand cary coke kum back if u be real man

Ugoandy: ofemmanus,this kind of thing willl never you people.

Lol, let them compare it with this. This is Onitsha, totally built up by indigenous entrepreneurs

Plz dnt 4get dat Oyo state alone is almost equal to d whole of SE in land mass. If u calculate IGR per square kilometers SE will top. 2ndly, ogun and osun r jst enjoying d expansion of Lagos. Thirdly SE economy is in d hands of indigenous ppl unlike SW. Meanwhile dia r many big 4 nothing states in d con3

FG please privatise our universities and roads. SE is a pure capitalist region, our entrepreneurs drive developments instead of govnors. Emeka Offor and co, tnx 4 ur gud biznes acumen

Nice roads. But d media show off is nt neccessary. Dats y i lyk sullivan

Nonybb: Really? 10 things i dont knw about Jonathan? Mr Man i knew all these things. Ebele means God's wish? Really? Are u an igbo man? My Friend Ebele or Ebere, depending on the way it is pronounced by a particular group of Igbo dialectically means "Mercy"

It cn mean a diffrent thing in Ijaw language

While others sit tight in dia place, smart biznes ppl move around, kudos 2 d Hausas

Its veri obvious dat sm ppl r already having high BP.

Wen sm govnors r busy packing white men 2 kum n kill SMEs and celebrate high IGR? U beta go n learn trade, onitsha market has many PhD holders.

Dia is no revolt without arm struggle. Uncountable ppl wia killed in d fyt dat ensued upon Mandela's incaceration. Bt wen u hear gunshot nw u go enta bush

Alishachris: States Generate electricity ni? Imagine TA orji generating electricity for Abia state.

aba may be d 1st naija city 2 enjoy 24/7 power. Geometric (Barth Nnaji) is abt completing d aba power plant. Nestoil (Ernest Azidalu) is also building one in anambra, Indigeneous entrepreneurs noni. Development is nt only abt govnors

Was it nt Awolowo who complained of large number of northern soldiers in d west as a reason 4 his inability 2 declare odua republic. Wasn't d Biafrans helping 2 librate dia ally frm a percieved comon enemy? Didn't d Biafrans set up d republic of Benin in d midwest b4 heading for d west. Was dia anytime d midwest was included in d map of Biafra? Didnt USA invade France, dia ally in 1944, wasnt it because of German occupation. Did france team up wit d germans 2 fyt USA for trying 2 capture dem evn though dey were allies?

I dnt want apc 2 win in d east but i want dem 2 be a strong opposition dat will put pressure on our govnors to work

Wen shall we have a made in nigeria rail?

burberry89: If ur communities has built over 4000 schools, 80% of electricity and road networks in d EAST then wats ur government doing ooooo. And u hopeless IGBO pplle condemning the govt of SW calling our governors thieves. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm wat can I call ur governors ooooo

You these SE pple u r the most backward pple in this country. Instead of critizing yorubas talk to ur leaders and ur brothers here in SW to come home n develop ur area

most of these hapnd during d millitary era which was clearly anti-igbo as a result of d war

burberry89: And aw many of the good ur so called IGBO brothers importing are you IGBO pple in SE consuming. If u leave lagos and go to ur SE there are a lot of pple who will still be importing. Maybe by that time the number of made in taiwan, japan good will reduce in SW cos that's wat u IGBO specializes on. U import sub standard good to the country and sell to us. By the time u leave lagos and go to ur SE we will be able to import original goods even though it might be costly but it will be original.

Stupid IGBO boy

Leave lagos say wetin hapn? Na 2 create regional branches in d east. Start importing d original nw, dnt wait 4 igbos 2 leave, if u r nt ready 2 compete u will be dominated

ilugunboy: Ingrate for coming to train your people that only carry useless MBA degree certificates around from all these mushroom off campus learning universities that is all over the east?

Tribal marks? Yeah if that will give you an er$ection to get you to do your responsibility.

Very insecure villagers!

bros easy na, U go get high BP ooo!

ilugunboy: Fvuk you......Aba is the most useless and dirtiest town in Nigeria....quote me anywhere!

aba is dirty but its not useless. U may go shopping in lodon only 2 kum home wit shoes made in aba
