For Soludo's emergency on roads repairs and reconstruction to be fruitful without eclipsing all state funds for other development, he must

1. Utilize CONCRETE Roads & Drainages USING DIRECT LABOUR
2. Revitalize the Anambra Roads Maintenance Agency (ARMA) to begin repairing all internal roads in the major urban centers with concrete.
3. Employ professional Engineers to lead the road ARMA in each major urban center where they are rebuilding the roads and drainages.

The concrete roads system using direct labor has been successfully used by poorer states to build cheap durable roads that have continued to last to date. Only very challenging intrastate roads should be awarded to contractors with relevant experience to do because of the engineering challenge and bridges required on such roads.

This method also improves the skillset of many youths who gain vital experience in roads construction and design which they can utilize in helping their communities build their own durable roads through communal effort and without the use of expensive roads construction companies.

This is what I warned about on the eve of the election. But some people thought they knew it all. APC has just kicked off their rigging pattern. The same Idemili North.

Nwanne, I just read the news. I'm shocked, but we must not react emotionally, especially in front of our foes. People should still stay home for their safety, but we should give them 1 day to come out and give us some answers. The only justification I see here is that MNK has been released and is in transit.

Freedom is ours brother! Stay strong and patient. 3 million+ souls lost are rooting for us!

Nwe ndidi!

All hail Biafra!

It's a nice vlog with lots of inaccurate and obsolete information that was not updated. Like Eboh Media's excellent vlog on the airport which also had the same obsolete information.

The airport project was not financed by the Chinese in any sort of partnership. Yes, the airport was initially planned and launched in 2017 as a $2 Billion dollars airport-city project on Build-Operate-Manage-and-Transfer with Chinese external partners (Sino-King Enterprises Ltd). That arrangement was later reneged upon by the Chinese Consortium in 2019. Following the pullout of the Chinese company, Gov. Obiano who already committed to the project instructed a phased approach towards delivery of the project BASED ON THE STATE'S FINANCIAL CAPACITY.

In January 2020, Gov. Obiano quietly broke grounds at the site and re-launched the new plan to build the airport in phases based on the state's revenue financing ability. The first phase to allow daylight flights landing was completed within 15 months and tested on April 30, 2021.

Gov. Obiano has continued the phased development of the airport installing ILS CAT 2 System, airfield landing, runway lighting, CAT 9 Airport Firestation, internal access roads around the airport, total perimeter fencing, approach main highway, gatehouse, terminal building, parking lots, powerhouse, self-sustaining water treatment plant, etc. These are to allow the safe and seamless operation of international flights from the airport as it begins to serve the public.

The Cargo storage sheds are being planned, with aviation fuel tank farms, as well as parallel taxiways to the end of the runway etc. Thus, in 2022, about N10 billion will be spent on the strategic development of the airport even as it continues to operate. Thus, the information that the airport alone (as is) already costs $2 billion Dollars makes such journalists sound very mischievous or misinformed. Once the total projected cost of $2 billion dollars is mentioned to sound as though it was the cost of the airport so far, without mentioning that was this was the total projected cost in 2017 was for everything (i.e; airport & airport city & International convention center & airport hotels) that the Chinese partners were expected to invest, make the information sound deliberately mischievous. Since we all know that N5.6 billion was budgeted in 2020 budget and N6 billion in 2021. So, nobody has claimed that $2 Billion dollars have already been invested into the airport. The plan is to gradually and strategically continue the investment of up to $2 billion dollars over a period of years based on the state's financial capacity. Why can't they report the later statement which is accurate than the former which suggests that the airport already costs $2 billion dollars?

We know $2 billion dollars is a little over N1 trillion naira. We also know that the entire Anambra's ACTUAL budget performance since 2010 is less than N900 Billion naira! So even if Anambra did not pay any salaries, or build roads/schools, or anything else since 2010, it would still be unable to afford a whopping N1 trillion naira to invest in this airport project alone for a whole 11 years! Not to mention that this project was only discussed with the Chinese in Obiano's second term in 2017 and actual construction started in January 2020! Which makes that claim by opposition agents of $2 billion already spent even more ludicrous!

He never said that what he said was satellite universities in 21 LGA there is a difference, that is campuses. I'm from Imo state I wish Maduka will turn to an Imolite to rescue my dead state.

PROUDIGBO:
This reminds me....they’re yet to pick a name for the airport!

The Governor shouldn’t be tempted to name it after himself...that appears too conceited. Either choose a outstanding son of the state like Prof Chinua Achebe, or leave it for the next incoming Governor, who could even name it after him if he so wishes!

Wow! Truly a fantastic achievement!

What marvel's me is how they have insisted on the very best quality equipment and global practices! I am shocked that they are indeed installing the runway center lights! It is an extra cost that most people who are addicted to shoddy jobs would easily do without. But, Obiano does not like to cut corners! Anything he does, he wants it to be the same standard that you would find in civilized countries where public safety is placed above cutting corners in everything.

(Video) American Man Reveals How he Was Paid to Dress as Nigerian and Protest That Buhari Government is Good

News and developments like this are what makes many Nigerians wish that they're not Nigerians, as funny as it might sound, it is clear now that the failed regime of rtd Gen Buhari as succumbed to the level of paying poverty stricken Americans to protest Placard for them. 

The funny part of this whole situation that these blacks (African American) and even some whites where paid tens of thousands of dollars just to wear a white shirt with green inscriptions carrying a placard with out of context inscriptions written on them without having any single idea of what they're protesting about.



When approached by our news agents, some denied our humble request to have them speak on the camera, while the one person that agreed to talk to one of our correspondence said openly that he has no idea why they're protesting, or what they're protesting for.

You won't see those people that were hailing him earlier. That is what pure ignorance can cause. That one is an engineer doesn't make one an expert in every field of construction. That is a pure white elephant project, even if it becomes completed. Someone just said he is only asking for help to equip the airport, as if that is not the main component of airport construction. I don't know Obiano and he doesn't know me either, but the man is a pure genius. Economics of scale was on point.

I just pity other airports around when ours is completed. All man to your tent!!!

OreMI22:
Nwokem,

Since you have data to argue pointlessly, why don't you just use it to research answers to your question?

Auto landing, a function of autopilot is a feature in ALL modern planes to utilize ILS Categories 2 or 3 in an airport to safely land the plane in the touchdown zone of the runway without any input from the pilot. The visual orientation of the correct glide path by the pilot using the PAPI lights is what ILS CAT2 OR 3 will automatically orient the plane computers in the correct glide path to the touchdown zone without any input from the pilot in auto landing procedures.

In fact most pilots love to use the auto landing feature of the ILS CAT 2 OR CAT 3 airports in good, daylight weather because it helps them to test the calibration of the system and be sure it guides the plane computers to the safe touchdown zone of the runway. Incase they have to use auto landing feature of their plane in that airport in very bad weather with poor visibility.

Just google how ILS CATEGORIES 2 and 3 work and what are PAPI lights and get the information yourself on how the ILS systems work for both visual landing by the pilot or auto landing by plane computers using the ILS guidance .

pandax:
Thank you for admitting that ICC is grossly over budget and behind schedule. Thank you for admitting that IDC is incompetent. I never mentioned that IDC is the contractor for ICC, but whomever they are, they are not better than IDC

As for Esther Obiakor Avenue and the greater Demonstration and Mmiri monkey axis, they formed my play ground growing up and i presently have a house there. You showed us cosmetics of the road on the commissioning day. Some areas around Esther Obiakor had water ingress issues or waterlogging issues and any road constructed without these 5 standard of road course, namely subgrade, sub- base, base course, binder course and wearing course, will fail in at most 1 year.

I am a chartered Engineer, quality road construction ended with Ngige. St Joseph Awka Etiti to Ihiala is still standing 10 years after Ngige, ditto Nnobi-Nkpor Road. Most of Obi and Obiano roads have failed because they used incompetent contractors.

Wing Commander Emmanuel Ukaegbu constructed Ifite Road at the cost of 158m in mid 90s and that road is still standing till date. Obi and Obiano had in 2000s extended the road from somewhere around former commissioners quarters to Amansea through Unizik back gate on at least 2 occasions and it has failed again. Ring road has failed, okpuno roads failed. Tell me any road that has not failed in Awka?

My brother, i am not even in opposition, but i want to see Awka with good quality road networks im particular and Anambra in general. I tell same to Obiano. He seems to have changed, albeit, very late

Please @ do not go the gutter method, as i hold you in high esteeem,except if you have MAD (Multiple Account Disorder) issues as well

With love from me
