Anambra Govt Signs MOU With M-P Infrastructure On 46.5 Million Dollar Awka Millenium City Housing Project

Ijaycool:
Kiaaa

Yorubas and Hausas will make up the list of 20 richest people in Nigeria, no Igbo will smell it.

Guess why?

...

The gap between the rich and poor in Igboland is almost nonexistent. In some other tribes there are very few super rich peeps, then the rest are poor.

Meanwhile amongst the Igbos, everyone is averagely rich, they all strive for the top, no one wants to depend on the other.

Hence the Igbos might collectively be the richest tribe, but individually, they won't smell top 20.

Man City scored the highest number of goals in the premier League, but top 3 highest goal scorers, no single Man City player.

To me that's how a reasonable economy work. Instead of one Alhaji owing a massive estate with 700 buildings, in Ontisha you will see 700 4-storey buildings own by 700 different people.

You are ignorant, there are super rich Igbo guys, Otedola is far below Arthur Eze, ABC Orjiako, Tony Enumelu, Benedict Peters, Emeka Offor, Obijackson and Austin Avuru

An American based medical practitioner indeed.

Them the pluck money from tree for America?

What is the annual income of a doctor or nurse or etc to afford doing all these things listed above.

Godwin Maduka is more than a good doctor. He’s a good businessman as well. He founded the Las Vegas Pain Institute and Medical Center in 1999 and has seen it expand to a total of six locations throughout Southern Nevada. Each facility is a one-stop destination for a wide array of medical services, including primary care, preventative care, urgent care, radiology, lab work, and even surgery. “ The product we have benefits everybody, regardless of social class,” says Maduka. “It’s helping people.”

The business growth has been dramatic for the doctor, but his journey began on the other side of the world, in Africa. Maduka was born in Nkerehi (later renamed Umuchukwu), a tiny village in Nigeria. He is now its favorite son, after heavily investing his own fortune to reimagine it from the ground up. His projects include homes, apartments, government buildings, classrooms, churches, police stations, a hospital, a gas station, and perhaps most impressive of all, a 17-story building designed for medical research. Maduka also worked with the government to help bring clean water, electricity, and roads to his people.

The story represents an amazing turn of events when looking back on Maduka’s childhood. His family had little money but there was one important factor working in his favor. “I was given a gift,” he says. “Academic brilliance.”

From kindergarten through high school, Maduka was always first in his class. “Almost a 4.0 GPA all throughout,” he adds, while noting he traveled outside his village to pursue his education. He adored his father, an herbalist who was able to heal patients with roots and other forms of natural medicine. When his father passed away, Maduka made an important promise: “I said ‘Dad, I’m going to be a pharmacist and I’m going to be a medical doctor. I’m going to make you proud.’”

He blew through an entrance exam and was accepted to the University of Port Harcourt School of Medicine, about 150 miles away. “But there was nobody to train me,” Maduka remembers. With few options at home, he started thinking about opportunities in the United States when a friend gave him a scholarship form for Rust College in Mississippi.

Maduka was accepted but the scholarship only covered about half his expenses. Fortunately, his younger brother, who had moved to the Nigerian capital city of Abuja, was able to help cover the rest with money made from auto repair work. “He said, ‘Don’t worry. You’re the smart one. Here’s the money. Maybe the family can now have a chance in life.’”

After receiving a little more financial help from an uncle in the air force, Maduka made his way to the United States in 1982. With the pressure on, he graduated summa cum laude in chemistry in a year-and-a-half instead of four - before the money ran out. That led to a scholarship at the Mercer University School of Pharmacy in Atlanta. “I did what I could to sustain myself,” he remembers. “I worked as a security guard. I washed plates in restaurants.”

He earned his Doctor of Pharmacy, found work as a pharmacy technician and was weighing options for medical school when he received a call from the University of Tennessee in Memphis - a school he hadn’t even applied to. Maduka says the university was heavily recruiting minorities following accusations of discrimination and offered him a full scholarship. “Room, board, books, tuition, everything,” he says.

After receiving his Doctor of Medicine, Maduka’s toughest test came in Boston at Harvard Medical School, where he studied anesthesiology, critical care and pain management. “I took the board and passed it with flying colors,” he remembers about earning his medical license. “Written and oral, even with my accent.”

Finally done with school, Maduka relocated to Las Vegas in 1997, based on a recommendation from a classmate. He received a job with Dr. Eugene Chen, was given $8,000 as an advance payment, and found himself working as an anesthesiologist at UMC, Desert Springs, Sunrise and other hospitals throughout the valley.

After a few challenging years, Maduka wanted to expand his scope to cover pain treatment. The first step was starting his own practice in about 700 square feet of empty space at the Red Rock Medical Group. “I had one exam room, one office and one toilet. That’s it,” he remembers. Maduka started marketing himself and business exploded.

By 1999, he was seeing so many patients, it made sense to find a place of his own. He aimed high and took a bank loan to purchase the commercial space near Jones and Flamingo that would become the first Las Vegas Pain Institute. His vision was to have a clinic for himself and then lease the rest of the space out to other medical professionals. He paid the loan off in less than two years and soon the entire building was operating under his umbrella. Despite the challenge of the Great Recession, Maduka was able to open a second location in Henderson. Over the following years, the Las Vegas Pain Institute expanded to the northwest near Centennial, northeast near Nellis Air Force Base and on Sahara near the Strip. A southwest location on Blue Diamond will celebrate its grand opening by the end of 2017.

“There is no other medical center like this,” says Maduka. “We started as a pain management center but after many years, we realized we had to do more for our patients.”

With a depth of services, the Las Vegas Pain Institute offers convenience, often serving as an emergency room alternative for non-critical patients. Maduka says each facility is strategically located near a major hospital to make sure every patient has quick access to whatever care is needed. “We’ll treat you in-house or find you the appropriate specialist,” he says.

Maduka’s new approach even carries over to wearing a business suit instead of a traditional white coat. But the most important factor is offering each patient understanding and empathy. “You can be the best businessman, but if you generally care for folks and have a passion for what you do, it shows,” he points out. “This is a business of healing. This is a business of making people feel better.”

Maduka continues to visit Nigeria about once a year. Despite the improvements made to his native village, there have been plenty of struggles and challenges along the way. The majority of the people are Christian but Maduka says he’s faced resistance from those who don’t understand his vision, including a small Pagan population who perform animal sacrifices in a public stream and follow outdated concepts. “When twins are born, they kill them because they say people shouldn’t be born in multiples of twos. If you have a headache, they say you’re a victim of witchcraft when you might actually be suffering from malaria. This is the kind of stuff we’re fighting.”

The doctor says he’s been the victim of slander and falsely tied to criminal acts by vigilantes. Those allegations were dismissed by Nigerian police following an in-depth investigation. “They accuse me of all kinds of stuff,” he says. “There’s no connection.”

Whether it’s in Nigeria or the United States, Maduka has a valuable role to play in continuing to help others. “I’m here for a purpose. What happened to me, doesn’t happen often,” he says. “From the jungle to Harvard... how often do you see that happen?”

I have every reason to doubt this information because they bring up this news every year with the same pictures and the same details. I first read about this 2 years ago and at that time, someone was also questioning why the news with the same information was still being paraded after many years as at that time.

He is not a politician, what ever Op listed on what he did for his people are facts , below is high Court he built in his home town has been commissioned and operational

Pictures I took when I visited his farm last year.

Xander85:
You sure this is recent and not one of the raft of MOUs signed soon after starting his first term in office? Is that cost of $46.5 million a typo' error?

News of signing of MOUs don't excite me any more!

Same with me, when I saw the news on ABS website hours ago I wasn't excited but immediately I saw Clem Nwogbo I picked interest, bro I know this guy too well, he once signed MOU on Lynden firm within short period he delivered Phase 1 and 2 of now they are expanding to phase 5

To be frank I don’t trust Obiano but for Dr Clem I can vouch for him on this project, he doesn't venture into what he can't accomplish, Dr. Clem Nwogbo is only investor I can trust, I once worked in one of his firms at Lagos, very rich, vibrant and serious dude, his from Awka, he's into oil service, telecom and agriculture, he is the owner of Lynden farm at Igbariam, this is a man I know very well, very rich and simple, He is the owner of M-P Infrastructure

Millennium City Is Coming As Anambra State Government Signs MOU With M-P Infrastructure For Development Of The Estate

By Uche Nworah

Anambra State Government today, Tuesday, 18th June, 2019 signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with M-P Infrastructure Ltd for the development of a brand new eco-friendly city, Awka Millennium City.

The project is the development of a 100 -acre estate (to be known as Awka Millennium City), to be located at Three -Arms Zone, Awka. The $46.5M project will be completed within 30 months beginning with the first phase involving 25 acres which will be ready in 18 months.

The Group MD/CEO of M-P Infrastructure Ltd, Dr. Clem Nwogbo signed on behalf of the company and said that Governor Willie Obiano’s ‘Aku Luo Uno’ call made him to bring his investments home coupled with the stable and secure environment in the state. He thanked Mr Jide Ikeakor, Managing Director of Anambra State Investment Promotion and Protection Agency (ANSIPPA) and his team for working hard to ensure that the deal happened.

Governor Willie Obiano signed on behalf of the state government and charged the company to pursue the project with the same vigour they applied in their Lynden Integrated Farms project, at Igbariam.

Going from Osogbo to Ikire on Friday, our correspondent observed fewer vehicles on the ever-busy road which connects the South-West region to other parts of the country.
Vehicular movement on the Ife-Ibadan Expressway was noticeably light on Friday and Saturday, a development attributed to the incessant attacks by armed bandits on commuters and motorists on the highway.

Going from Osogbo to Ikire on Friday, our correspondent observed fewer vehicles on the ever-busy road which connects the South-West region to other parts of the country.

From Gbongan Junction to the boundary of Osun and Oyo states, there were four police checkpoints manned by heavily armed riot police.

Before Wednesday’s attack, which claimed the life of an employee of the Atakumosa West Local Government Area, Adenipekun Samson, who was shot in the neck by some gunmen suspected to be Fulani bandits, there had been an increase in the cases of kidnapping and armed robbery on the road.
The deceased, who was confirmed dead in a hospital as a result of the gunshot, was said to be travelling in an unregistered Toyota Corolla car driven by one Ismaila Olayiwola, going towards Ibadan, Oyo State, when the incident happened.

Two commercial drivers, who spoke with PUNCH on the issue at Naira and Kobo Junction, Ikire, attributed the light vehicular movement on the road to the frequent robbery attacks.

One of the drivers, identified simply as Adenekan, said the reduction in the volume of traffic was as a result of the increase in the attack on travellers by bandits.

He said, “The number of vehicles coming from Osogbo and Ife towards Ibadan has reduced. The attacks by bandits cause this. We can only hope that the perpetrators will be arrested to restore people’s confidence. Despite today being a weekend, people are not travelling through this route. People are afraid to use this road.”

Lagos — Nigerian indigenous oil firm, Seplat has stepped in to bail out the Pan Ocean and NNPC Joint Venture, JV with funding for the completion of the Amukpe to Escravos alternate export pipeline, SweetcrudeReports has learned.
According to sources close to the matter, a hand of fellowship was extended to Seplat when the duo – Pan Ocean and Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation – could no longer meet up with funding for the 67-kilometre gas pipeline.
“Schedule for completion of the pipeline would not have been met if Seplat did not step in”, one of our sources hinted.
The Amukpe to Escravos alternate export pipeline was one of the three projects scheduled by Pan Ocean/NNPV JV to be launched on June 10. However, this was put on hold after news broke that Pan Ocean’s license on OML 98 had been withdrawn by the Department of Petroleum Resources, DPR.
In fact, two of these three assets are located in an acreage (OML 98) whose license has been revoked by the DPR.
Construction of the Amukpe-Escravos Pipeline was to export crude oil from OML 98, but the company’s rights to crude production on that acreage had been revoked since April 2019. Also, the company no longer has a license to operate the Ovade-Ogharefe Gas Processing Plant Phases I & II.
DPR had last week, revoked five Oil Mining Licenses and one Oil Prospecting License belonging to five companies- Pan Ocean Oil Corporation (OML 98); Allied Energy Resources Nigeria (OML 120 and 121); Express Petroleum and Gas Company (OML 108); Cavendish Petroleum Nigeria (OML 110) and Summit Oil International (OPL 206). Summit Oil is owned by the family of late Chief M.K.O. Abiola.
“As Seplat continues to enhance production and revenue diversification with new wells scheduled at OML 53 in the East, the board took the Final Investment Decision to invest in the large scale ANOH gas and condensate development which will form the next phase of transformational growth for our gas business”.
But for DPR’s last-minute revocation, Avuru also announced that Seplat’s board had taken the Final Investment Decision for the ANOH and Amukpe to Escravos alternate export pipeline to be completed and fully commissioned in Q2 2019.
Our sources, however, did not budge when asked how much bailout fund Seplat had given in support of the project.
“What will happen once business kicks off, is that Seplat will recover its funds through a percentage of gas already agreed upon until it recovers the money invested”, one of our sources added.
Twisted plot as NNPC, Seplat step in
However, things have since taken a turn for worse since the DPR’s announcement of revocation of Pan Ocean’s license.
SweetcrudeReports learned that the duo of NNPC and Seplat who already have stakes in the deal have stepped in to resolve the matter with DPR.
“NNPC and Seplat have already taken up the responsibility of resolving the issue with DPR. Their money is already trapped in the deal. Nobody wants to lose huge funds already invested”.
“Besides, it’s in the national interest to resolve the issue. NNPC is involved, Nigeria’s fund will be trapped if DPR does not release the ceased license so the business can move on”, one source told SweetcrudeReports.

A consortium of seven local and international lenders has signed an agreement to refinance Neconde Energy Limited’s Senior Secured Medium-Term Loan Facility Agreement, worth $640 million (N2.3trillion).
The refinancing of the facility followed the renewal of Neconde Energy Limited’s Oil Mining Licence (OML) 42 for the next 20 years, effective June 2019, by the federal government.This development, according to the indigenous oil and gas exploration and production company, was a demonstration of support for the company’s commercial and financial operations by both local and international financial institutions.
The consortium of seven lenders comprises four Nigerian banks and three international lenders.
The banks are Access Bank, Fidelity Bank, Zenith Bank and First Bank (UK) Limited.
The international lenders are the Africa Import Export Bank (Afrexim), Africa Finance Corporation (AFC) and Glencore Energy (UK) Limited.
Apart from being a member of the lending consortium, Glencore is also the off-taker of Neconde’s equity crude oil production.
With the refinancing, Neconde is now positioned to achieve its field development plans for the plum asset.
Neconde acquired Shell, Total and Nigerian Agip Oil Company’s 45 per cent joint equity interest in OML 42 in an open and competitive bid in 2011.
The acquisition was financed by the consortium of reputable local and international financiers.
The Chairman of Neconde Energy Limited, Dr. Ernest Azudialu-Obiejesi, said in a statement at the weekend that the loan refinancing affirmed the strong financial fundamentals of the company as a leading player in the upstream sector of the oil and gas industry.

“This restructuring frees up capital for Neconde to invest in more development activities that will result in production increase,” he added.

Neconde is in a Joint Venture (JV) with the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC) in OML 42. The JV’s production presently stands at an average of 50,000 barrels of oil per day and upon completion of the development activities planned in the 2019 work programme, the JV expects to hit a production output of about 100,000bpd.

In the third quarter of 2018, Neconde alongside its JV partner, NPDC, secured a robust and independent alternative crude evacuation system.

This initiative was borne out of the need to find a more reliable alternative to the Trans-Forcados Pipeline, which is prone to repeated outages.

The new evacuation system (“Barging”) has become the primary evacuation system for the JV and has since proven to be a more reliable and consistent channel of evacuating its crude oil for export.
The JV, it was learnt, intends to consolidate on this major achievement and improve its cash flows from the asset.
In January 2011, Neconde participated in and emerged successful in the competitive bid for the acquisition of 45 per cent stake in OML 42 previously held by Shell, Total Exploration and Production Nigeria Limited and Nigerian Agip Oil Company Limited.
Only recently, it secured the renewal of its lease for OML 42 for a further tenor of 20 years by the federal government through the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR).
“Neconde’s status as an indigenous company with an excellent management team offers a viable option through which the rich reserves of the Niger Delta could be brought into production with attendant economic benefits for the local communities and the country,” the company said in the statement.

If you understand the in depth of politics, you shouldn't be pushing Soludo in anyway.

And if you understand APC well, you will see the very need for apga to give us neutral person like it has been with Obi and Obiano.

Soludo will be the next governor of Anambra State, we need technocrat not politician.
