horsepower101:GBAM! I hope one SE state can place orders for this types of vehicle with INNOSON. The state governments have to think about keep the roads clean by buying at least 4 of these types of vehicles for every city. Everyday, you send off the environmental team to go sweep some major roads and plant flowers and trees. If they did it for one year, the whole city will look beautiful and clean. Some SE states have NEVER swept the streets from 1800!

That boy isn't Igbo. Probably Deomello aka arabisiola or ariesbull. It kills them that the people they wasted all this energy plotting to kill and impoverish are not doing badly. Just ignore those bitter souls. They have been looking to incite e-war between Anambra and Enugu or Ebonyi in this thread. I am happy we have wiser people here nowadays to just ignore them as they respond to themselves until they get tired. |
horsepower101:Exactly! Beirut looked exactly like Awada layout with good paved roads on every street with running water and electricity not an issue. I suddenly realized that it wouldn't take much to transform Nigeria to a liveable space for everyone to be decently accommodated in those 4-5 storey buildings. We just have to get serious with getting street paved and cleared of trash, water supplied for residents on the building and working on renewable electricity sources.

spyder880:Spyder, Biko we go talk soon. I want to add my own to the skyline and you will be the contractor ![]() By the way, i used to dislike these types of buildings until i visited Jerusalem and decided to also visit family in Beirut with my friend on that visit. If you visit Beirut, you will see how Onitsha could transform to the best city if they seriously thought about making water available in these buildings and using renewable electricity such as solar panels and inverters to augument electricity from the grid. Mind you, almost every flat in Beirut where i visited had air-conditioning unit for their flat! Now i am a full supporter of the 4-5 storey buildings because it is the ONLY way to help people have decent apartments in a land scarce city. We just have to work on how to keep the streets paved and cultivate a culture of sinking boreholes for every house or atleast one borehole serving the houses on every street to guarantee constant water supply to residents. Spyder, that is why i love you hanging the 500 gallons tank ontop of that building. We just have to figure a way to make homes have running water and electricity independent of government input in Nigeria. |
spyder880:Concrete roads helped America develop very high quality highway systems that didn't require any maintenance for decades and remained smooth like the first day they were built. They started building concrete roads in 1800s and have never stopped. Those raods are still in very good condition today. If the Ebonyi had promoted efforts to resuscitate NigerCem Nkalagu, it would have been use our resources to develop the state.Ebonyi already has the finest quarries that will supply the stones for these projects. But importing cement from outside of Ebonyi to do concrete roads without backward integration into your economy may not be very wise. You are just enriching those who want to impoverish you further. Although concrete roads are the way to getting our roads in good condition for extended periods of time. Especially in a country with poor maintenance culture like Nigeria.
|
SoNature:Although many of our people are still fixated on developing other parts of Nigeria especially Lagos, Abuja than their own states or communities. For the first time since i came to America, i have heard Igbo people talk about owning something in their own states or key urban centers at Enugu, Onitsha,Owerri, Aba. Even cities as Awka, Asaba, Abakaliki, Umuahia, Okigwe,Nsukka,Nnewi,Orlu etc have been coming up in conversation where people want to invest. This new attitude has shocked me because the average Igboman a few years ago will boast about being born in Maiduguri and has 20 buildings there and married his first daughter to a Kanuri chief. I think finally, the scales are falling off our eyes to see Nigeria as it is, not what we wish it should be, so that we can reason properly. |
That will be Buhari's next action. But Gen. T. Y. Danjuma is much greater than Buhari. Once you speak the truth in Nigeria,Buhari will use DSS and EFCC to immediately frame you with an alleged scandal. The BUHARI regime is the worst and most intolerant regime on the African continent. |
Fulani army can warn as much as it likes. Danjuma spoke the bitter truth. Non-fulani people must not depend on Nigeria army to stop fulani herdsmen from killing them or they would all be dead before they know it. |
kmariko:You are the ONLY Nigerian that does not know the 1999 constitution BANS state government or anyone to develop natural resources? It is the exclusive prerogative of the Federal Government and they can play any politics they like with it. At the detriment of the Nigerian economy. Why do you think folks are seriously asking for restructuring of the country? Why do you think everyone wants the evil 1999 military constitution dropped and we return to our 1960 or 1963 republican constitution agreed upon as the basis for our independence? So that each state or region can develop whatever resources they have and use it to develop themselves rather than waiting forever for FG to do it and they will NEVER do it due to political bigotry of the type of leaders Nigeria produces. |
Afam4eva:You already know that guy isnt from Anambra. He has been using several monikers to respond to himself. All his posts here has been to derail this thread. BIKO IGNORE HIM. |

I agree those with the funds should start building medium high rise structures instead of always build bungalows. All those bungalows along Ogui road and Okpara avenue need to be sold to entrepreneurs who will replace them with medium high rise as in the picture. They can just limit it to a maximum of 4-6 floors to make available parking space enough. ....and they don't need to make these buildings just for offices. They can make spaces for supermarkets, banks, small shops / furniture shops and other private companies that may want to hire. Even some people can hire some floors as their hotel or some high end restaurants. The buildings must not all be for offices.
|
Afam4eva:What you have said will make more sense if Nigeria were restructured. Under the present arrangement, Enugu will NEVER get any so called recognition. It is up to you and I to invest in Enugu and use facilities in the place. Nigeria is a toxic and incurably tribalistic geographic expression. You could never seriously expect such an entity to do anything positive to get Enugu the recognition it deserves on any level whatsoever. That is why those Igbos killing themselves to invest in Funtua, kano or Daura while they have no hut in their villages and continue to neglect their own state capitals or towns closer to their villages, should enjoy whatever comes to them eventually due to their folly. I also don't think that for Enugu to reach it's potential, it involves displacement of anyone (Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Calabar or Onitsha). It is part of primitive Nigerian mentality to think about struggling for a smaller cake instead of baking a bigger cake so everyone will grow and be happy. If economy of Nigeria grows through activities in Enugu or Kano or Jos, it does not mean that Lagos or Calabar or Abuja will be less for it. |
SoNature:I don't think there is anything wrong with developing the villages. Having said that, i will tell you the risk of that approach. The problem is that Enugu state is one of the states with the lowest financial resources in Nigeria. Just look at the national budgets of all states from 2000 to 2018. Enugu is among the last 5. Some of the investments we are seeing in Enugu today are because of Gov Chime's foresight to drastically improve the ambiance of Enugu to compete among the choice investment destinations in Nigeria with Abuja and Lagos. Let me tell you, it was a very very smart move. I know many people here in the diaspora that now see Enugu as an alternative destination than the usual Lagos and Abuja mentality for investment among Diasporas. The state government must help facilitate communities to organize and embark on self help projects. The state government might be able to assist by coordinating communal efforts to achieve the stated goals in electrification, schools or health centers, community markets or roads. I am glad Governor Ugwuanyi has continued in Chime's foot-steps to bring Enugu to international city standard and also just added Nsukka to the list. Creating two or three standard major cities in Enugu state is not only desirable, but the best thing to do for the state. It will be a gradual process to develop enough economic activities in these places to boost IGR for the state government. But, spreading the current resources too thin to develop every village at the same time will achieve nothing. Therefore, spending in Enugu state must be very very smart. It makes every sense to try to build up and position Enugu city as the choice destination for investors into the South East and even Southsouth. If more investments are available, you can have more jobs and internally generated revenue to help improve finances of the state to develop the rural areas more. If you are not smart in how you spend to help create an attractive Enugu for investors to troop in, you will perpetually be living in penury sharing your inadequate resources to reach every village and a little for Enugu city which will end up not being enough for either the villages to develop nor for Enugu city to be a choice destination. |
iliyande:I will ONLY advise Nigerians at the mercy of these herdsmen to defend themselves and inflict equal fear on these invaders. If they think of the cost of destroying your farms and killing villagers, they will have a change of heart. Folding your hands and doing nothing is just going to encourage them to continue the carnage. They will try to use Police and army to protect their evil activities and prevent you from forming vigilante to protect your villages, DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED by their antics. CONTINUE TO DEFEND YOUR VILLAGES AND YOUR PEOPLE NO MATTER WHAT THEY COME UP WITH TO STOP YOU. |
justtoodark:I don't need to argue with buffons. You truly think if parts of Nigeria pick up arms Nigeria will survive the crisis in today's world? You think the south cannot buy enough arms this time to take the war to you? You must think Britain will support you with arms shipment unchallenged and the other side is too poor to procure weapons from China and Russia? I laugh at eediots like you that think a war in Nigeria will be a straightforward affair. The ONLY reason there has been no war in Nigeria is that many people believe that Nigeria as one country is still an advantage for every region than broken up into smaller countries. Thus the decision to fix Nigeria rather than support groups calling for outright breakup of the entity. I believe Nigeria has certain advantages as one country than having smaller countries emerge from Nigeria. That is why it is better to vote out bigots ruling Nigeria now and threatening her survival through their herdsmen agenda, and fix the country than begin an insurgency. The insurgency will finally lead to a full scale open war against the invaders of Nigeria which Nigeria will never survive. |
spyder880:Chai, see what copying wrong number had delayed me for many months. I just thought you refused to answer calls from unknown numbers abroad unless i booked appointment in advance which time difference and work schedules prevent me from having a set time to call. |
mekaboy:Funny thing is that APC has deployed an army of deceivers to keep telling people there is no need to vote and that their votes will not count. Anyone who listens to their agents and fail to register, vote and defend your vote should not complain when Buhari begins implementation of their wicked agenda after 2019. I hope then they will be ready to pick up a gun and fight for freedom. Bottom line, it is easier to vote than pick up a gun later because you refused to vote. |
spyder880:Please don't mind that boy. I hate when people think if they can't afford N100,000, then anybody who can is a thief. In other words, they are the epitome of human success or the best paid people that anyone better than them is a thief or something. Anyway, Oga m is this number still working 080333 50850. Seems you don't use it regularly. I need us to talk urgently about getting one of those your lands and building something like that your 8 flats in Onitsha. If they won't allow me to do that type of house at your site, can we discuss alternative areas of Enugu and Awka for land? Thanks a lot!

cjrane:Truly don't mind demolishing anything that is in the path of the runway or taxiway to make the airport completely safe for foreign international airlines to operate day or night. International standards need to be enforced in the closest permissible distance to a runway or taxiway. Also, the airport need to be fenced south of ekulo river to make it safe for any international dignitary or any type of cargo freights so that the standard of security at the airport is at par with any international airport in the world. My ONLY problem is that the Minister for transport was concentrating too much on external obstacles without mentioning the internal obstacles too. Some people will always test the government's will to enforce safety standards by building where they are not supposed to build. Like the new private house just built in the picture. Those should be demolished at once without compensation. As for the Orie-Market, i think they can do a phased relocation to a new site. They can immediately relocate the abattoir and ban sale of meat in the market to discourage vultures from coming to the market and then do the final relocation in a year or so. Likewise, the airforce classrooms or whatever that was built where the taxiway should pass must also be demolished.

Another window dressing sham! We know Buhari lied about IGP being told to go to Benue. They thought Fulanis will massacre the villagers to justify taking Benue lands and giving to Fulanis under "Grazing policy" without the villagers fighting back. Unfortunately when the villagers fought back the invaders, Buhari and his IGP went there to stop the villagers from taking the fight to Fulani invaders. Now he wants to blame the IGP for not going there when Fulanis first invaded. We already know the Police and army are never there when it's fulanis killing others. Once the people resist and fight back the invaders, you suddenly see Nigerian army and police everywhere to protect the cows. |
agbotikuyo:Great job! Nsukka is 100% more developed than Osogbo. I can already see pained children of hate invading this thread out of pain in their dark heart. ![]() |
Optional09:Website works just fine. They just had to warn customers against "Nigeria"
|
Digitron:It is a mark of the SE Governors lack of vision to be talking about ring "roads" intead of talking about ring "RAILWAY LINES". What difference would another two lane road connecting Onitsha to Nsukka or Enugu to Owerri make? They need to work on building standard rail gauge to connect the entire region to the Onne Port. In that way, exporters and importers can import through ONNE and rail their goods to whatever town where they are located at very cheap prices. The SE Governors only need to seek permission for the project since Nigerian constitution puts railway in exclusive list. |
So since the IGP disobeyed the President and lives of citizens were lost, what happened? If this was true, Buhari would have fired the guy on the spot! Buhari is just a shameless liar like Lie Mohammed. It's more shameful he is using his IGP to lie against the poor guy. |
stanleyravos:For where? Buhari would do no such thing as long as the guy is from Nigeria and the part he calls the despicable 5%ers. |
ExAngel007:Buhari is a shameless liar! If the IGP disobeyed him, he would have since fired the guy. But we know he didn't because he is a big liar. He NEVER wanted IGP to go to Benue and stop the Fulani slaughtering of villagers because it was all part of their plan to introduce grazing policy to annex peoples' land and give to Fulani. |
Digitron:Great to see this fantastic project finally come to fruition. This lab should be equipped to handle diagnosis of diseases not just in Enugu, but the entire SE and SS region. There is a serious lack of proper laboratory facilities to diagnose cancer cells, rare viruses as Ebola or Zika as well as diagnose lukemias early. Enugu state government should immediately seek international partnership with World Health Organization (WHO) and assistance of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States of America to help in equiping this laboratory to a global standard to diagnose diseases for the region and beyond. This is exactly what WHO has been doing for so many countries requesting assistance in serving as a regional laboratory system for early diagnosis and detection of diseases. http://www.who.int/ihr/lyon/hls/en/ |
Cjrane2:GBAM! They should tell us why Akanu Ibiam international is the ONLY international airport in Nigeria WITHOUT a Taxiway and WHEN they hope to correct that anomaly. They are instead erecting all sorts of obstacles close to the main landing runway so that they can cause an accident and gladly close down the airport for a very long time. If not, why would they be building all these useless Nigerian air-force classroom buildings so close to the runway of an international airport receiving large body aircrafts? Is that spot the only space in the entire airport to build a classroom? Who instructed the airforce commander in Enugu to build a classroom right on the runway of a civilian airport? Why can't they go and build their own airforce base somewhere and build structures on the runway? In Kano and kaduna, the airforce built their own runway. Why not build a second runway in Enugu for the airforce? I am all for safety and what will bring the desired growth of the airport. Therefore, these pretentious tribalists should first fix the internal issues they have created out of their toxic politics against the airport before focusing on external people building too close to the airport runway or taxiway. They have put all sorts of obstacles along the taxiway of the airport to make it nearly impossible to build a proper taxiway there. Infact some buildings built by the airforce are so dangerously close to the main landing runway as in the picture below a little cross-breeze that shifts the plane on landing will result in a catastrophe. A Boeing 747 wings will definitely smash into that building upon landing. So why should the structure be there? To prevent Akanu Ibiam international airport from ever receiving bigger planes? So fix the internal obstacles along the taxiway and then go to the external factors. Stop putting the cart before the horse. It exposes their insincerity and hypocrisy.

We need an innovative water system to provide water in our cities and villages. The past methods of building mighty water works systems to provide water to entire cities or Greater Onitsha water scheme to provide regional water supply has failed because the concept was too complicated and our management system based on government was guaranteed to fail. In the United States small communities or towns often come together to provide their own potable water system. This is a simple system whereby the community sinks a proper bore-hole at a designated place and pumps the water into an overhead storage tank. The water then flows by gravity from the tank into the various homes in that community. This is a simple technology that will work very well in our environment where people understand the need for self help projects. And no need for too much government intervention to provide their own constant portable water supply. Concrete water tanks as in the picture may be easier for our bricklayers and plumbers to construct with local technology. This simple system can solve the potable water issue in many cities and villages. There is no need to build mighty water works systems that are too expensive and too complicated for local manpower to maintain. Instead let landlords’ association be organized by government and 200-500 building in each neighborhood will come together and sink their own borehole and set up the overhead tank. The water from the tank is then piped to the various buildings who are members of that project. When about 200-500 3 or 4 storey building can come together to share the cost of sinking a proper deep borehole in a central location and pipe the water to the homes which are part of the project, the cost of the project per family may be as little as mere N2,000 naira to raise about N10 million naira for the project! A city like Onitsha can have about 10-20 of these neighborhood water systems, while Awka and Nnewi can have about 5 each. Many towns and villages looking for what to do with the N20 million naira allocated by Anambra state government for community projects should stop building multiple useless civic centers that impact very little on the lives of everyone in the community. They should ask for this project and water piped to all compounds in their community. That way, everyone in the entire village can have at least one water pump inside their compound. Then, a system to place water meters in front of each compound to measure their water use for billing purposes is implemented with help of state government. This neighborhood water systems will create employment, while also ensuring the constant supply of portable water at affordable prices for all. Not to mention of the fact that it will stop spread of water borne diseases. I hope the Anambra state governor immediately put machinery in place as well as engage philanthropists and Landlords associations to begin choosing appropriate sites in each neighborhood to implement a neighborhood water supply system co-managed by that state and the landlords association in each neighborhood and every community in the state
