@ ilugunboy

Stop posting pictures of 10years ago.

This is Onitsha..

manny4life: Chino, I'm a lil disappointed how you fell for this nonsense?

Can you please focus on Anambra state, this is what the thread is about...

Nwanne..I know what am doing. Let me extinguish him out of this thread first, then I can edit my posts.

Illugun are you there? I have bucket of pictures from the slum called yeroba state capitals..

ilugunboy: LMAO.....

Tell me when you wake up from your self induced delusion.


Abeg...give us more pix and not these over-circulated rubbish your keep regurgitating anytime Anambra comes up under the spotlight.

Go bring your champion eko ile who is from Lagos state at least I can manage that. I can't imagine myself talking and measuring d1ck with someone from the mud house and rusted zinc infested Oshogbo, ibadan, Eketi, abeokuta etc

manny4life: Bros I haven't said that these things didn't happen, what I'm saying is, WE WANT MORE.

Of course more is happening!

Remember we are just showing you one part, by the time we gather all the projects in all the corners of the state, you will announce result.

ilugunboy: LMAO at the so called achievements of ADAPETER on this thread...

If level of achievement is what qualifies an outgoing governor to endorse a successor....Obi is not even fit to nominate an LG councillor.

Pathetic...!

The fact that your state is infested with poverty, under development filled with ocean of mud houses and rusted zincs in the state capital is enough to bother you.

@ The topic, we are just entertaining you with pictures from just one of the cities in Anambra.

manny4life: Chino you said you're an architect right? Even if it was renovated, something got to change. People who renovate buildings change components of buildings like building out pillar structures, changing the roofs, altering the floors, the drywall/wood work fixed, etc. Just because it's renovation doesn't mean things shouldn't be done right, that's the whole purpose of "renovation". For me, if I were to renovate schools like that, I will shop for designs and if renovating it is more costly, do what developers do: PULL THE ENTIRE STRUCTURE DOWN.

Take another look at the picture and tell if the major components as windows, roof etc were not changed. This is a dilapidated school in far away Otuocha River side..

If all the rural schools takes this shape, wouldn't it be better than the usual shabby?

FreeGlobe: tell us the name of the school

I have to break my vows to reply you..

The school is a government model college, it was just recently completed..

Here is one of the private schools in Awka..

manny4life: Okay. In all though, Peter Obi lacks taste and foresight in building design, I hope he scored well on other areas. Besides, what kind of contractors does he use? I thought contractors submit design and then bid on the project? Are the previous bldg all they could come up with?

Those rural schools were renovated not built from the scratch..

manny4life: www.nairaland.com/attachments/1345183_schoolpicture_jpg94894d4abeda1c01c0ba4f94ce0ad752

This isn't about design per say, but about the look, feel, and structure of the buildings. This one looks decent, is this a secondary school?

Yes this is a model college in Awka

Okay, manny what do you make of this design in Awka?

ilugunboy: Don't they incorporate landscaping into civil construction contracts in Anambra.....?

By the time they finish all the rural schools and its landscaping will look like this..

@Manny

I understand your point, mind you these are rural schools. Compare to what you get from rural schools from other states, then you call the result.

@invest-now2013: The International Cargo/Passenger Airport project has already taken off from the ground. Because the site has been acquired, compensation paid to the host communities and it has been secured with a perimeter fence. It is a PPP/BOT project between Orient Petroleum and Anambra state govt.






THERE’S TALK ABOUT AN AIRPORT PROJECT THERE. CAN YOU ELUCIDATE ON THAT?

Yes, there will be an airport. I spoke about Orient Petroleum Resources PLC being a holding company. The holding company has four subsidiaries. One subsidiary is the refining of petro-chemical component which is going to operate the refinery; the second is the one that is about producing oil and gas; that is called the exploration and production subsidiary. Then we have a subsidiary which is gas and power which is supplying gas to Nkalagu cement, to breweries at 9th Mile, and possibly to this SABmiller Brewery in Onitsha. The final one is the infrastructure and services which will look after the airport and other infrastructure like housing and so on which will support the operations of the other three subsidiaries.

So the vision was that Orient will be a vertically integrated company. It derives its own raw materials, sells its products; provides its services. The airport was supposed to provide an outlet for aviation kerosene which is one of the products of the refinery. So planes will land there and load with aviation kerosene. That’s the aviation fuel (ATK). So there will be a pipeline that takes aviation kero there; the aircraft will load and we can be selling aviation kero to Kano International Airport, to Lagos, even to Ghana and other places right from that point. So the airport itself is to provide an outlet for aviation kero and also it will provide a quick source of spares. Let’s say you need something in the refinery, you fly it in. So we do have licence from the federal government to set up an international cargo airport to fly in materials there. This airport is located in about 1,200 hectares of land in Ifite Umuleri. It’s already surveyed and work will start very soon now that we have income from the oil production.

SO HOW SOON DO YOU RECKON THE AIRPORT WILL BE READY?

The airport will be constructed in phases just like the refinery. The first phase will be the runway and the cargo shed. Those ones could be done in 18 months and then the next phase will be the second runway so that it will be like Abuja which is getting the second runway. Lagos already has two runways. So we’re looking far ahead. These runways are of international standard; the ICAO standard (International Civil Aviation Authority).

They’re long enough to take a Boeing 747 cargo. The biggest jumbo jet can land in the airport; that’s why it’s so long; 1,300 hectares and the runway is about 4 kilometres. It’s longer than Enugu and Asaba airports. It’s again futuristic to make sure that in 20 years to come it will still be serving us.

SO IT WILL BE STRICTLY A CARGO AIRPORT AND NOT FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES?

Not quite. The licence is for international cargo and domestic passengers. So you can have passengers who are inside Nigeria. It’s not international passenger; it can’t take off from there and fly to London; no, but I can bring in materials from outside the country and fly materials out of the country; that’s cargo, but the airport itself can operate as a domestic airport. It will have a runway and a terminal building. The one in Enugu is international passenger airport but this one is international cargo.

[quote author=Zona.com]I dont actually know. The school is kinda confused now. Some lecturers are on strike while others are not.[/quote]But UNIZIK have never been a member of ASUU? What is going on..

Bliss4Lyfe: Good effort by Obi, but F9(Fail) for imposing a candidate on Anambarians.

Oya chino come and fight.I am ready for you this morning.

My dearie ..its not fight but its a matter of continuity.

If another person goes in there he may decide to abandon all the ongoing projects and starts his own. I trust that Ngige will spoil everything Obi has laid because of his desperation..

Due to massive investment in education, Anambra has been coming tops in WAEC, NECO, JAMB, Unity Schools.

Obi has not restricted development to painting and planting flowers only in the urban centers. All sectors are benefiting at the same time.

More on rural schools. All the rural schools are all using computers and internet connectivity for their studies.

This is one of the schools in the rural areas, this is what Obi did to it..

Development should be all inclusive. I keep saying it, if you want to assess the level development in any state start from the rural areas and assess all the sectors of the state and not just the cosmestic measures some govs does in order to deceive the gullible readers.
