 Politics › Re: Why Obiano Will Win Again by Cjrane2(op): 1:11pm On Nov 08, 2017 |
adadike281:What vexes me most is that the same people shouting "Ibos go back to your place and ask for good leaders are the ones so bitter when they see a performing leader like Willie Obiano. They want to fill the southeast with university cultist leaders as Nwoye who will mindlessly agree to loot the state to fund their APC campaign in 2009. Since Amaechi is no longer Governor, instead of them to look for a northern state to use in funding their evil agenda, they prefer to use Police and army to rig themselves into a poor southern state to loot their resources for the evil men. Anambra people are completely out to guard their votes taking videos of the whole proceedings at every polling station so that those hoping to change results in INEC office in Abuja using Police and army will have a nice day. Willie Obiano has performed excellently in spite of the recession in the country. Anambra has gradually improved impressively under his watch. In a normal country, he wouldn't even need to campaign at all because his numerous achievements speak for him. But Nigeria is not a normal country, so APGA must be vigilant to the end. 3 Likes

letusbepieces: Those APC goons campaigning against no elections in Anambra through cleverly manipulating some IPOB members to stop elections have never said Obiano has failed. Instead, they say they are discouraging people to come out to vote. Their simple strategy being to use their own imported thugs from APC states to rig the Anambra polls. Let me state that Willie Obiano is not an average Nigeria politician. Before Peter Obi and Willie Obiano, Anambra recorded last in ALL development indices and was a den of criminals. Today, you cannot mention anything positive from economic growth to education to positive health outcomes without Anambra being in among the first 10 states! It is an impressive achievement!! So STOP peddling falsehoods that nothing has changed in Anambra for decades. We all know it is a big lie. Part of the problem with Nigerians is refusing to participate and expecting things to magically change. I wonder how you can win a tournament match such as FIFA World cup if you simply decided not to play a match outside of FIFA rules and regulations. Now apply the above analogy to boycotting an election where the rule does not say a Governorship election should in anyway affect how Nigeria is run. The law clearly allows the appointment of sole administrators to run states where an election is not possible. Perhaps Nnamdi Kanu is insensitive to this issue because he isn't from Anambra, but people from there who had seen schools closed for one due to non-payment of salaries and complete collapse of every infrastructure in the state will never wish to return to such nightmarish situation. Especially if their sacrifice will be meaningless in bringing any sort of change nationally unless it is perfomed simultaneously in 12 states and in a Presidential election. Now to the plot by APC to somehow engineer a poor voters turnout so that people they hired from other states can vote and rig their former university cult leader into the Governor. We already know that only APGA selects the best candidates to rule any part of Igboland. The other parties for some strange reasons select the worst criminals and anti-social elements from Igboland to foist on Igbos as their leaders. The so called IPOB plan to boycott gubernatorial Anambra elections was an unfortunate misunderstanding of what the constitution says. So it was ill thought out and flawed from the start. You have got to do things within what is possible within the law. There is NO WHERE in Nigerian constitution where it said if you failed to vote in a gubernatorial election, it would amount to any sort of constitutional issue for the country. Nigeria's 1999 constitution did say that to become a PRESIDENT of Nigeria, you MUST have 25% of the votes in 24 STATES. This clause means that if you can prevent elections from holding in 12 or 13 states, you will create a constitutional problem that will make it impossible for anyone to be declared PRESIDENT based on the constitutional provision. To achieve No election in 12 states out of 17 states in southern Nigeria will require concerted collaboration between Afenifere, Ohaneze and other socio-political groups.

There is no doubt that Willie Obiano has given a good account of the three years he has spent so far developing Anambra. Although many people quickly refer to infrastructural accomplishments as bridges and roads which Willie Obiano did so much within these three years despite the nationwide recession. I am more thrilled by his exploits in agriculture and using it to create gainful employment for youths who would otherwise have gone into crime. Rice, Sorghum are now grains produced in Anambra. Same effort has continued in poultry, fish farming, and other aspects of animal protein production for affordable food prices. I also don't want to mention his laudable achievements in primary,secondary and tertiary education including infrastructural development of the state university and the setting up of a second state university "Nwafor Orizu University of Education, Nsugbe" (NOUEN). His exploits in health sector with the upgrade of Ontsha General hospital into a State Specialist hospital, Full accreditation of the state university teaching hospital and building of 30 general hospitals in smaller towns in the state to improve healthcare and disease control in the state. Little wonder that inspite of Lassa Fever, Cerebral Meningitis, Cholera, diarrhea, among other communicable diseases that broke out in many states of Nigeria, Anambra was able to remain disease free and contained the few cases that happened in the state.

All his punishment will only last a while, but he forever lost the opportunity of being treated as a revered statesman in that part of Nigeria and i am grateful he did it himself out of childish bigotry.

I will not list airports built and being built in Igboland. Suffice to say that apart from PH and Calabar airports, no airport in the former eastern region was built by the Federal Government. Although it has since been annexed by Federal Government that and continues to collect revenue from them without investing in it's maintenance. it wants the state government or citizens of the area to do the maintenance while FG collects the revenue. So why not simply transfer the facilities back to the respective state governments to run and maintain? Unlike northern region where the Federal Government built airports in Abuja,Bauchi,Sokoto,Yola,Jos,Maiduguri, Markurdi,, Minna, Zaria, and Kaduna (TWO airports). Please research who built Asaba airport, Uyo airport, Enugu airport and Owerri airport. Then come back and tell me about responsible state governments. 7 Likes 1 Share

Is it not the criminal neglect of facilities in Enugu and southeast in particular by the Buhari regime, compared to how similar facilities are treated in other parts of Nigeria? So , why are you citing that a second runway will be built in Abuja, when we know it is not in the 5%ers part of Nigeria? Kaduna airport's ENTIRE runway (3.25 KM) by 60 Meters was resurfaced and the new terminal building brought to a reasonable level of completion just because it was going to take diverted flights from Abuja airport for 3 months! Yet, POTHOLES in Enugu international airport runway could not be patched by the same "Federal Government", the same government cannot build gutters to channel away flood water from the old terminal building for 2 years now. Dude are you normal at all? 5 Likes |

Blue3k: @bolded. For once you have spoken the truth!Her job is to report to her colleagues who would immediately refer her report to another sub-committee to investigate the veracity of the decay claimed. Then after 2 years of "verifying" the reported story, there is an election and the newly elected House members begins the drama all over because they want to use their own people to investigate the "state of airports" in Nigeria. Even if the House decided to ever discuss the state of neglect at Enugu international airport (An impossible topic, except when Buhari henchmen want to close it down indefinitely as they have always plotted), the northern legislators have a penchant for killing any bill that will condemn the executive and it's treatment of infrastructure in the southeast zone. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Blue3k:What has that lady lawmaker got to do with the criminal neglect of Enugu international airport under Buhari regime? Is she the Minister of Aviation? NO! Is she the Director of FAAN? No! Is she the chairman of NCAA? NO! Is she even the speaker of the House, or even Minority leader? NO! You could have very well showed me the picture of an Igbo person working in Abuja airport and ask me why i didn't ask her to include Enugu when Abuja was being included. Silly joke! Let me ask you, Please, what can a useless report of House of Rep members do to reverse the state policy of criminal neglect of Enugu International airport? Will her report write and cry as usual that Enugu International airport is criminally neglected and it may impact on safety of passengers using the airport...Including V.P Osinbajo who's plane can also crash while landing on the rough runway? Have you ever heard of Senate Committee on Aviation, and it's Chairman Senator Muhammad Adamu Aliero? Who is he and what is his mission on Enugu intl. airport? Nobody expects Buhari to do anything because he would rather build a brand new airport in Niger Republic than fix potholes on Enugu International airport runway. Meanwhile he is there shamelessly collecting taxes and revenue made by the airport, but would not invest a penny of that revenue in fixing any infrastructure there. Just know that nobody is God. He is only wasting his opportunity to do good and be remembered for it. So i'm glad he is wasting it because someday, all those things he refused to fix will be fixed. 9 Likes

Blue3k:Bro, quit shifting the goal post and answer my question.If you want to privatize, it is usually the facilities you cannot fund but which has potential that you will begin with. Since Buhari became President, it was clear he wanted a complete reversal of the Enugu international airport. He started with claiming he wanted a probe of the terminal buildings award, but when it was clear he could not use terminal building, he switched to runway and other facilities which he wanted to close down the airport indefinitely "to fix" the infrastructure. Then of course, when it was time to concession Nigeria's international airports, Enugu mysteriously was not among the international airports group. We already know how Buhari henchmen have been watching activities at Enugu international airport looking for the slightest excuse to close it down they way they abandoned the second Niger bridge PPP project under the excuse to review the cost. We already know your intentions, so you can continue with the deceit of 4th or 5th or 20th phase concession group. You are only fooling yourself. By the way, stop showing me the picture of a lower House Chairman while forgetting the person pulling all the strings and vehemently campaigning for immediate closure of Enugu International airport without voting any funds whatsoever and setting a specific timeline to rectify whatever infrastructural lapse he claims. 5 Likes

newsbook:Buhari is a shameless hypocrite. I used to have respect for him, now i know it was because Tunde Idiagbon covered up for Buhari. Buahri is just a corrupt and hypocritical as any Nigeria politician who pay lip service to corruption while they shamelessly steal and condone stealing by their friends. 5 Likes |

Blue3k:Another silly attempt at deflection. You know a lot about this issue, so we know you are simply trying to deflect the obvious crude plan to de-internationalize Enugu international airport by the Buhari regime by not listing it as an international airport. You know very well the plan was to first concession the international airports and then concession the domestic airports in phase 2. Everyone in Nigeria knows there are 5 international airports roughly spread out by geo-political sub regions of Nigeria to ensure balance and ease of travel for all Nigerians no matter where they live. However, when the list of international airports to be concessioned came out, it was only 4 of the 5 international airports that were listed. The question is then why? More importantly, the airport that was erroneously "omitted" (Enugu intl. ) was the one that received the least attention from the Buhari regime out of vendetta he had for the region for their pattern of voting in 2015 9 Likes |

Blue3k:Can we ask ourselves why hatch a plan to concession only 4 out of the 5 international airports? Why deliberately leave out Enugu from the international airports list being concessioned and you didn't forget to leave out Kano from the list? Is Enugu still an international airport under Buhari regime? Please explain. 10 Likes |

Young Igbo people should not fall victim of the propaganda of your enemies. Live where you must but never forget where you come from. Remember Nigeria is an evil entity ALWAYS plotting how to dispossess you of your properties and belongings either through violent riots, quit notice or heavy taxation. It will be wiser and better for you to go live in Mali,Gabon or Burkina Faso than to live in Northern Nigeria. But let those who cannot leave Northern Nigeria remain vigilant. Therefore, learn to use your homebase as an insurance policy by keeping a branch or some investment at home. So that when the evil men strike at you, you will always have something to fall back to. 4 Likes |

Ask yourself, What prevents the FAAN from concessioning Enugu intl. airport as it plans to do with Kano,Abuja and PH airports? It's all about keeping it and frustrating it to death through infrastructural neglect, while asking the state government that they don't give any penny for running the airport in their domain to come and repair what the FG should repair with the money it collects from the airport. 10 Likes |

Now that FAAN has finally opened up on issues they claimed affected smooth running of the Enugu international airport, they should devote show they are not hypocrites by deploying more funds towards addressing the new deficits as well as call back the contractor that handled the project PW NIgeria LTD to rectify any shoddy jobs identified (http://www.pwlimited.com/Page.aspx?SID=3&SSID=20). That is what a sincere agency will do. But Nigeria is filled with people hiding behind federal agencies to plot evil against parts of the country they are determined to undermine. [quote author=. post=0]When the first international flight took off from the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu on August 13, 2013, it was expected that four years later, the airport would be servicing at least three more international carriers. This is because industry market analysts believe that the airlines would have international passengers from Aba, Enugu, Onitsha, Abakaliki, Nsukka, Owerri, Awka and other areas in the South East and South South zones of the country who would spend less than two hours to the airport and board their flights rather than travel about six hours to Abuja or Lagos to travel overseas. Also there are heavy cargoes coming from mainly Asia, where many businessmen and women from the South East region import goods from and it would be easier to move such goods from Enugu than from Lagos or Abuja because of proximity advantage. In fact, hauling goods from the Murtala Muhammed International Airport to cities in the South East is fraught with many challenges, including the loss or damage of such goods on transit, invasion by night marauders who most often maim and kill truck drivers on the highway, especially in the night. But after the elation of that first flight by Ethiopia Airlines, which has continued to maintain that route, no other airline has started operation from the airport. THISDAY spoke to the Manager of Enugu Airport, Mr. Mgbemene Orji, who explained why the airport has not attracted more international carriers, which also explained why even some local carriers are not operating the route despite passenger surge. Orji explained that the airport cannot operate 24 hours because of structural deficiencies at the airport, but for now it could only operate from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm daily. The Manager said there is no enough water for firefighting because it is difficult to dig borehole at the airport due to coal deposits. Currently the airport management buys water from tankers everyday but this is not enough to provide adequate fire cover for large body aircraft or higher number of aircraft traffic. “Currently we are building overhead tank but it is nothing if we cannot source underground water, which will be in adequate supply to meet the fire cover needs,” Mgbemene said. He also noted that there are no approach lights, which are usually located at the two ends of the runway, about four kilometers before the runway. These are lights that guide the aircraft to the runway, especially in the night. “On one side of the approach to the runway, there is Orie Emene Market, which must be relocated so that the approach light can be installed. The other side of the approach is located at Abakpa Nike area of Enugu. The day FAAN engineers wanted to install lights at that area, the indigenes said they were not compensated for the land and therefore would not allow the installation”, he added. The Airport Manager also disclosed that there are two masts, one owned by Enugu State Broadcasting Service (ESBS) and the other by the Nigeria Television Authority (NTA) at the Abakpa Nike end of the runway. These masts obstruct flight approach, necessitating that immediately the aircraft takes off it must bank right to avoid collision with the masts. This makes flying to Enugu airport more difficult during the Harmattan. But the Enugu State Commissioner for Information, Mr. Ogbuagu Anikwe in reaction to the problems of the Enugu Airport said, “The Enugu State government had never been approached by FAAN in relation to the foregoing issues. Besides, most of these concerns are actually not areas state governments can statutorily delve into.” THISDAY learnt that more international airlines would be operating to Enugu if these obstacles were removed and the benefits of 24 hours flight operations to Enugu include more jobs for the citizens, the people travelling at their convenience and also more businesses coming to the city and environs. FAAN believes that the Enugu State government could help to solve these problems because it would be of immense benefit to the state and its people when more airlines begin to fly to Enugu, popularly known as Coal City. For example, Enugu stat government can settle the host community at the Abakpa Nike area so that the approach light can be installed by compensating them for the land even engage them to protect the installation and the state government can also relocate the Orie Market in Emene. THISDAY gathered that Emirates, Qatar Airways and some international cargo airlines may indicate interest to operate from Enugu if thee safety critical equipment is installed. “I am aware that there are plans by some cargo airlines to bring cargo from Dubai, Malaysia, China and other parts of Asia through the Enugu airport if the airport can operate for 24 hours. Most international airlines like to operate in the night to their hub so that they will start distributing passengers to their connecting flights in the morning. Night flights will really help the Enugu airport,” an official of FAAN told THISDAY in Lagos. THISDAY also gathered that there is job to be completed on the Enugu airport runway by Julius Berger, which has been called back to site and work on the terminal building is yet to be completed. “There is a subsisting contract on the runway and work on the terminal building so the Minister of State, Aviation, Senator Hadi Sirika has called the company back to site,” revealed the FAAN official in Lagos. It is the view of many in the aviation industry stakeholders that the burden of managing the airports by FAAN has become cumbersome due to depleting revenue so state governments have been supporting the agency to maintain the airports located in their areas. So it is expected that the state governors in the South East, and especially the Governor of Enugu state should give support to Enugu airport to solve the aforementioned challenges so that the airport would improve its status to the benefit of the people of the zone and the state.[/quote]Source: https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2017/11/03/actualising-enugu-airports-intl-status/ 6 Likes |
