They should withdraw them quickly! It is unacceptable for a southern soldier to die fighting Boko Haram which the northerners have intentionally set up. We shall preserve our boys to fight off the northerners from our land.

I noticed that the most ridiculed posters on nl are Igbo2011 and cap28, and these are the most passionate black brothers on this forum... These brothers don't even care about their ethnic group nor engage in the ethnic chauvinism and bigotry that's the bane of this forum and Nigeria/African continent in general... All they care about is the upliftment of black people and the African continent - yet they still get ridiculed everyday by pseudo-intellectuals, coons, uncle Toms, aunt Tomasinas, spooks, political jobbers etc..

Why can't we cut them slack and listen to the message they have got for us??

[size=18pt]To care for Africa or a black man is truly ridiculous![/size]

Naija gra-gra sef!

Why is a Enugu so dusty, brownish and dirty looking? The images are disturbing to my eyes!

If you take your schizophrenia medications, and relocate to Osogbo thread, i believe your eyes will get better.

I just had the most amazing tasting fruit juice from my Cameroonian friend. The fruit juice was made from Icheku fruit!!!

Like seriously, this fruit juice tasted so fresh and sweet!!! It is annoying that our people still import fake flavored sugar drinks and call them fruit juices? Yet, we have something this naturally sweet and refreshing wasting away ? I am glad someone in Cameroon is using this fruit to make big money and even export the juices to America!

But since this fruit is most preponderant in SE Nigeria, why can't our people learn how this fruit is boiled and canned or bottled into fruit juices? Our people know how to bottle fake drinks from Europe, yet this authentic fruit which we can process and make good money from, it is the Cameroonians doing it?

Sorry for posting here, but i hope someone looking for something interesting to produce and package will try out this idea. Thanks.

Now some pipul go begin bad belle attacks!

Nigeria’s Senate President, David Mark, on Wednesday condemned the killing of 47 students in a government secondary school in Yobe on Monday.
In a speech, Mr. Mark said Boko Haram has declared war on Nigeria and appealed to the insurgents to refrain from attacking innocent citizens.
“Clearly, Boko Haram has declared war on this country and we must fight with all our efforts. We cannot allow this to continue any longer,” Mr. Mark said.
Mr. Mark sympathized with the people and government of Yobe state and all the school children in Nigeria.
After his speech, the senate observed a moment of silence for the slain students.
Meanwhile, the senate passed a bill titled: An act to establish the National Commission for Conciliation and Arbitration, National Labour Council, the office of the Registrar of Trade Unions etc to administer the provisions of labour laws in Nigeria and other matters connected therewith, 2014, through a second hearing.

Shebi i knew this about 2 years ago, why is Mark just realizing it?
Okay, you are finally coming from your dreamland of offering amnesty and throwing a few naira around and the problem will go away?

Oga sorry ooo, the only way to fix this is to defeat Boko Haram, no mateer how much we may need to spend on the military hardware and training to do it.

This has been my main objective from day one, an avenue of reaching the government to tell them how we feel about them, and to load the vehicle with very high content tbat it must not fail to catch their attention. I think someone in authority is reading us here, so we should keep things calm and focused towards a better Enugu state.

Long live Enugu state!
Long live Igboland!
Long live a better Nigeria!

Oga Spyder,
I must commend and thank you immensely for opening this thread and taking the enormous pains to go out and find pictures to stimulate discussion on how the development of Enugu state has continued full steam under His Excellency, Barrister Sullivan Chime.
Apart from helping us to easily share ideas and inform our amiable governor about issues that require his attention, in America, the Igbo meeting in Connecticut and formerly in Alexander,LA have been referring people to this site. Those that are eager to find out the state of things in the former eastern region since the war ended. I am aware that a prominent American journalist that reported the civil war so well had viewed this thread as a guest several times because he once told a Nigerian (Non-Igbo woman) that he had seen wonderful recovery of Igboland posted on this site.So you are right that we need to resist the urge to throw back mud back at derailers, something we would not be proud of if important people are viewing our thread as an unbiased source of up to date information about how things truly are.
Thank you very much again for this great effort and may God bless you as you continue the good work.

Because GEJ is a southerner, an Ijaw, it was a mistake for a citizen of the south-south to rule Nigeria, but not a mistake to allow a northerner to rule the south south?

Nigeria is on its last days bro, You will NEVER rule any place outside your village unless you change your doctrine.

ROYALD:
the same Oguta lake

ROYALD:
Oguta is a town on the east bank of Oguta Lake in Imo State of southeastern Nigeria. Enjoy the pictures

Just why i God's name do we let such pristine natural beauty of Oguta waste away?
Many countries reaping billions from tourism don't have as much natural beauty! So many people will pay anything to spend their holidays there.

But where are the hotels? Rochas is building 5 star hotel in Okigwe, while Oguta where it makes sense has the old , outdated Oguta Lake hotel!
What about water sports facilities like speed boats and cycling boats being made available for the resort guests to pedal a little on their plastic boats and enjoy the scenery? Even the road from Owerri to the Oguta resort is still being fixed. Nigeria is truly moni-miss-road!

THUNDER4real:
Which African country is Nigerians best enemy?

SOUTH AFRICA!

I saw this program on the DG of NTDC.
I was glad that someone was finally thinking about developing our tourist sites and how to safely bring in tourists to Nigeria.
This is an area the Enugu state government should facilitate in collaboration with the Ethiopian airlines, SE hotel proprietors and transporters in the region. Other SE governors need to come on board too.
The first step in helping world tourists to see our festivals and tourist sites have been possible with the direct international flights into the Akanu Ibiam International airport from many African cities and world cities connecting via Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The next step is to develop a Cultural Tourism calendar of major cultural events/ tourist sites of the region, which can be advertised via the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation (NTDC) to invite foreigners willing to experience the events. Other neighboring states in the SE and even Kogi and Benue state can contribute to the calendar if they wish to have tourists visiting their cultural events too.

[b]The genius is to assist a prospective tourist to organize visa, Flight into Enugu, Hotel accommodation and secure air-conditioned local transportation to and fro while in Nigeria for one tour price. All done in one down payment for all these service paid even before they leave their country of origin. This creates peace of mind for the tourist and reduces hassle/ anxiety for a first time tourist to Nigeria.
Therefore, our travel agencies will work with the marketing agencies in the various countries with the assistance of the NTDC to help prospective tourists arrange hotel accommodation and comfortable,reliable transport and security while they are in Nigeria to see these numerous African wonder events and sites. Short stay visas will now be stamped at the airport of entry, which makes the visa hassle less daunting for the tourist.

For example, if someone living in the USA intends to travel to South Africa to see a carnival, you will pay a fixed amount which takes care of your airfare, hotel accommodation in SA and a comfortable transportation to and fro the event. This encourages many tourists to visit South Africa in spite of the high crime rate, knowing their trip, who to pick them up from the airport and where to stay will be taken care of by the tour agencies registered with the government there. [/b]

Therefore, Safe and clean Nigerian states as Enugu should work with Ethiopian airline, NTDC and the hotels to make this type of tour a reality for those willing to visit from abroad. Tourism is a goldmine area Nigerians typically ignore chasing the elusive oil wealth.

Have learnt that so many Nigerians just wanna live in the State,Some wanna spend the rest of there life in the state,some don't even wanna know what the outcome is gonna be. they just wanna do anything to get in.

The country that accept gay and lesbian marriage,the country where insulting of parent by their kids is very usual. The country that has the highest number of single parent in the world. The country that has the highest number of transgender in the world. The country whereby any kind of surgery is possible all you need is just time.

No fear of God, No respect,Bleep,killing homicide,drug and heroin,songs and video corrupt kids. They have the highest sex party in the world. Highest producer of porn movies, They got highest porn shops in the world. Highest tattoo and piecing Artists. Yet they claim they are the best in the world. I know of a God fearing person who traveled to united state last year and now into something real bad. Am sure you don't wanna know.

You talking sh1t about america now, if dem give you visa now, you will run 440 and go there!
Truth be told, America is not a bad country, it is the desire of their politicians to impoverish Africa that is the issue.
That is why I'm so disappointed with Obama, that George Bush did more for Africa than him with African blood!

Behold the okigwe-afikpo road

Abeg Okigwe -Afikpo road was built by Pius Ayim as Senate President long before Rochas came. Don't associate Rochas to that road

AMERICA DONT WORRY, IF YOU DO SELL IT TO US, WE WILL BUILD IT OUR SELF

Whether Obama's cold war against Nigeria, a key US ally in Africa is about;

Gay Marriage or not,

Stopping arms sale so that BH will overwhelm Nigeria and force its collapse to fulfill their prophecy,

Stopping buying of Nigerian oil to cause financial hardship and influence Nigerian votes

Collapsing the price of oil to cause Nigerian reserves depletion and collapse of the naira...


One thing for certain is that Obama and the democratic party will be history in january 2016.

IGBOSON1:
^^^Go screw yourself.....how's that for an insult!?

Now start!

That mad yoruba corper again. I think we should ignore the troll even if he responds to your post.
Just as we did to one "All4naija" here not too long ago and he quietly disappeared because the discussion continued in spite of his efforts to derail it.

Lets all click on "Report" on all his derailing posts,and point out that it is derailing the thread in the comment box that comes up or just say he violated rules 1,2 and 13. An impartial Mod. will eventually do the needful.

InyinyaAgbaOku:
its not possible that the whole coastline from cross river to delta doesn't have a single spot deep enough for ports .
If you know how the whites create ports out of mere puddles, you will see that even Onitsha river port is more than enough for anything, not to talk of the deep seas in SS..

Just like Onne and Lagos ports were built on tributaries leading to the ocean. If you look at google earth, Calabar port is also on a major tributary of the cross river leading to the ocean. It's only draw back is that Nigerian governments have not equipped the port with cranes to off load big ships.

Most great ports in the USA in Galveston Texas, New Orleans LA, Gulf port-Biloxi, Miami Florida, Wilmington NC,New York , Savannah GA, Boston MA, etc.were all built in major river tributaries leading to the ocean. The sense in doing this is to keep the ports accessible to the ocean,while shielding it from the violent ocean waves.

So that man does not know what he is talking about. He is speaking out of the usual hatred and desire to deprive one part of the country amenities so that another part continues to benefit from their misery.

Sweet Jesus,
let this IDC not be another front by politicians. Anambra has suffered too much from that type of corruption for this to happen again.

All the state capitals created in 1991 with Awka are already way ahead!
Asaba and Dutse in 1991 were forgotten rural towns,while Awka already had a major university campus and was a thriving city. Today, all these other places have blossomed and transformed into beautiful great cities, while Awka has remained largely the same since.

valacious:
Was watching STV this morning and was shocked during the interview when Vicotia Pepple said to white naija that 'you are actually blessed to be white. I mean in this age, a presenter could actually utter such lines laced with racist undertones. So sad.

Op , you are being insincere to yourself.

The presenter spoke the naked truth. Even if white Naija was Indian or Pakistani, they are still considered better and superior to you black.

Wetin dey shele for here?
No more gists?

achi4u:
Is never an insult because Abu Onye Abakaliki (Even though am not frm Abakaliki area),but is an insult to bad mouth Abakaliki simply because a guy said he traveled from Abakaliki to Enugu and met a red dust which if u ask him the date it mighty be 10yrs back.
Thank God Chino is here to help u derail this thread.
I'm out.

That troll Kasyn and Jazzydee is the same oily head person. He came here to derail the thread with useless arguments on red soil and bringing Abakaliki into it.
We should ignore him like we ignored one so called "" that tried in vain to pick a quarell saying controversial things. Be careful not to play into their evil hands trying to respond to an innocent sounding post.

spyder880:
Right now at this afternoon, I am supervising a toilet soak away excavation in PH and the soil is red, should I tell the owner that because his soil is red, I will leave because the whole place is dirty?

[size=14pt]Exactly!
You should immediately abandon the place and contact the owner that you cannot build because the soil is red!!![/size]

cjrane:
I will only respond to someone that cannot read for the sake of setting the record straight for other forum members that may not check out your lies.
The pictures posted originally by a forum member 'oremi' was copied and reposted by me to buttress his point that Enugu median and roundabouts should have trees and fountains like the pictures he posted. More like me reposting the Intl. conference centers pictures originally posted by Spyder. At no point did I suggest that the Oremi's pictures were from Enugu or that they were mine. You will similarly accuse me of posting pictures of "red soil" in America and Brazil in this page to say they from Enugu.

Page is re-posted here for anyone willing to verify the facts: https://www.nairaland.com/979128/enugu-pride-east/282

Go away with your jealousy and hatred, you have been exposed for what you are. An ignorant jealous brat. Go and gnash your teeth, Enugu will forever be greater than your weird state and people. Now go find a better silly issue to disguise your hatred, your "red soil " smokescreen has failed.

Since it pains them so much that with a little bit of flowers /trees in the Enugu road medians it would become such legendary city in spite of every marginalization scheme implemented by Nigeria to under develop it and the SE region in general over the years, I fervently hope someone in Enugu state government circles will truly begin urban renewal / green revolution by planting of trees and flowers along the major roads in Enugu as soon as possible.

Having noted that Enugu IS NOT the only city in the world with red sand, for those still taunting this silly red soil issue as their only reason for hating Enugu,...... Speaking in Oshiomole's voice.....
"Go and die!"

soil in Vicksburg, Mississippi, USA.

I don't want to post more useless pictures in this thread.
Please can those who have never been outside their village sit down?
Please,Tell me that Abuja is better than any of these American states with red soil color!

I know for sure that Mississippi and Alabama have red soil because I lived in the suburb of Jackson for so many years and the parks soil looked like my village soil. Yet Jackson with all its red soil cannot be compared with any city in Nigeria.

Babangida's rgime probe is definitely an item on Buhari's insistence to become President.

I support him in that because IBB's regime set this country on its present self destructive course.

okzcorp:
Special Indeed. But from what country experience are you talking from? Have you witnessed it or heard someone who had? I really wanna know what Nigerians pass through, both good or bad.

Although some countries go way over board in tackling the Nigerians, Nigerians deserve the special treatment though.
Just because we have ruined our country unchallenged, we imagine and even try to ruin other peoples countries. Only to receive the shock of our lives!
Nigerian unruly behavior WILL NOT BE TOLERATED HERE.

Glad to see that Obiano is putting structures in place to drive his dream.
The Anambra Investment Promotion Agency (ANSIPPA) & Capital development Authority (ACDA) owning its own building are great things.

However, the third leg in that tripod is the [size=17pt]Anambra Revenue Authority[/size] to coordinate the proper collection of revenue from all sources and remitting to the state account. Without a Revenue house to coordinate all government revenue, people will continue to go around to all sorts of offices at the secretariat to pay taxes in the wrong offices and to the wrong persons, which will simply vanish in transit.

I guess the 100 years expiration shelf life of the territory called Nigeria has already elapsed.

Unless Hausa/fulani want to change their tactics and pursue freedom and equity for all in Nigeria, they will wake up one morning to find that the oil they are killing, manipulating and bombing in order to control has been returned to its owners. This will happen sooner than they realize.

Igbo should use eye to count every Hausa man from Bonny Island to Opi, know where they live, who their friends are and where they do business or work. This time around, not even one of them should escape.
