WiLdFLame:
Only stupid People will think APC will lose Edo state. Edo State is one of APC founding state. they will do all to win it, ACN block singlehandedly won Kwara, though I see Edo more tougher than Kwara Election but not much tougher than Kogi or Bayelsa Election.

Most of us here giving analysis and blabbing won’t vote that day. The voters are not on Nairaland

Every time the voters are not on Nairaland, where exactly are these voters?
Does it mean that as Nairalander,you are not eligible to vote in any election?

Ebonyi, una don de tire

tayebest:
Actually, it's still on construction by the FG. it's a phase by phase development

Which construction?
The same road they keep telling us is under construction for more than ten years. They keep using this road and second Niger bridge for politics.

Beside, no construction is going on there at the moment, they have stopped work for long

This shows that all our politicians are battling with serious health issue
May his soul rest in peace

I'm patiently waiting for Chelsea's next signings
That will determine how well they are prepared for next season.
This defence need total overhaul if they want to near top 4 next season

Foolish youths, see them succumbing to this distraction.
Huspi case is a national embarrassment, politicizing it is to further devalue the nation

She is a unizik student
Saw it in one of unizik groups
May her soul rest in peace

Chelsea could not even allow Man U enjoy top 4 for a day
Very wicked people

LukasPodolski:
why would a Yoruba man study in the east, when 6 of the top ten best universities are here in the west.

Oga Yoruba people full Unizik
At least I have more than 10 Yoruba friends here in this school

Your foolishness is legendary

If you don't have any meaningful thing to say, keep shut

OruExpress:
no, that's not the meaning of that word. Crying out means alludes to a burst of emotion. Screaming etc. The headline implies the citizens of that community are out of control. Again, me k'anyi su igbo nke anyi mma. Anyi ji bekee ne su onwe anyi mkpari.



Cry Out
exclaim, cry, cry out, outcry, call out, shout(verb)
utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy
"`I won!' he exclaimed"; "`Help!' she cried"; "`I'm here,' the mother shouted when she saw her child looking lost"
Synonyms:
proclaim, outshout, shout, weep, shout out, hollo, blackguard, outcry, promulgate, call out, blazon out, holler, yell, call, scream, cry, squall, abuse, clapperclaw, exclaim

OK Sir, Professor Emeritus
The point remains that this community needs an urgent help, whether they smile, murmur, shout or even groan, let help be granted them

phoenix911:
Even if the community is in need of government help, why lies about the situation with fake pictures that is to say the OP did not do any research by going to the community to know what the situation looks like that pictures are fake the first and the third pictures are not from Nigeria just check the number plate on the car on the third picture when did Nigeria or Ebonyi state start using yellow plate number.

Have you been to that community yourself to ascertain the situation of things there?
I'm from Afikpo North and I know the community the way I know my name, I have been there countless times. Though its a small community, disadvantaged by its distance from the main town, but still regarded as one of the communities in Afikpo with the most hard working and brilliant people. Their population isn't more than 5000 but the number of graduates its shuns out every year is amazing.

I'm a huge fan of Dave and I appreciate his good works in Ebonyi but that still does not change the fact the this community needs help. Dave made a promise to fix the road during the electioneering period but he's yet to do anything after election, even the member representing Afikpo North/South at the fed house(Hon Idu Igariway) made a promise to fix the road if the state govt fails to do it but all of them have forgotten about it.

OruExpress:
'cries out' lol like they're babies are being irrational. I think we should start writing in our native languages. This English is a failed project

What are you even saying?
Crying out in this context simply means admission of one's need for something

Osagyefo98:
So naso una want finish Umahi just because his media dogs updated us on one bridge he recently concluded.

You should know is all about media clout... nothingelse

Oga this community has been neglected for too long
Nothing like media clout here

Lalasticlala this is not fair, a community is seriously begging for an urgent help.

SLAP44:
It's the rainy season again and with increasing urbanisation in Ebonyi, every town now has traffic.

Dave Umahi has stretched concrete roads to most if not all the communities in Ebonyi. He will get to this one soon.

God bless Ebonyi state.

He should, the community has suffered for too long

Lala, pls move this to front page, the community needs an urgent help

ABANDONMENT: EBONYI COMMUNITY CRIES OUT TO UMAHI, REPRESENTATIVES FOR INTERVENTION

By Paul Okah
Abuja

Residents of Ibii community in Afikpo North Local Government Area of Ebonyi state have cried out to the state government to save them from being cut off from the rest of the state “due to bad road, lack of power supply, among other necessities of life”.

In several interviews with our reporter, residents of the community said that they have suffered abandonment for years, even before the state was created, but have always voted for the government in power during election years.

Speaking with our reporter, one of the residents, Chief Nelson Otu, said that Ibii is particularly affected by bad road, being an agrarian community that depends on agricultural produce for survival and appealed to the state government for urgent intervention.

He said: "The Ibii road that traverses the community to Afikpo town and the one that connects us to Akpoha community has been in a deplorable state for many years. We are calling on the governor of Ebonyi State, Engr. David Umahi, FNSE, FNATE, to please come to our aid.

“The major road that connects us to the state is so bad that, if not for community effort, we would have been cut off completely. They should do something. We are an agrarian community and our people are finding it difficult to transport our agric products to other areas.

“We produce food, such as rice, cassava and yam in large quantity. Our problem is that we don’t have good roads. We are cut off during the rainy season. We're suffering. Why are we hated and marginalised these much, when we've always given 99% votes to the People's Democratic Party (PDP) since 1999 till date?”

Also speaking, one of the residents and Technical Assistant to the Governor on Attiudnal Change, Kelechi Ability, said that, apart from bad roads, the community is also suffering from lack of power supply and called on the state governor, representatives in the National Assembly and representative in the state House of Assembly for intervention.

He said: "We call on the state government to intervene in our plights, especially in the area of electricity and road network as we've been cut off from our brother communities in the state. We make bold to say that since 1999, our great party, PDP, has never failed any election in our community, but the height of negligence and marginalisation is heartbreaking.

“We call on the state governor, Apostle David Nweze Umahi, Senator representing Ebonyi South, Senator Michael Ama Nnachi, Member representing Afikpo North/ South constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. Idume Igariwey and member representing Afikpo North West in the Ebonyi state House of Assembly, Hon. Ikoro Kingsley Ogboonia, please hearken to our yearnings.”

Lalas pls save this community

What I don't understand is why she is still answering Regina Daniel instead of Regina Nwoko.

Anyways, congratulations to her

This is not gonna be business as usual
I see surprises

Thank God no life was lost

English is really hard for some people

Just30:
You ask why the property was demolished in the night

The answer to that is, According to the road safety regulation
Long vehicles, earth moving equipment, long trucks and certain equipment cannot be to and from that particular area of Accra unless after 10 pm.

There are also regulation on what time that equipment can be transported on Highways in Ghana.

You are pathetic
Just look at what you are typing
I feel for you and your people

I thought this forum was suppose to be a place where Nigerians come to talk about Nigeria, while do we still have these lousy African neighbours come here to insult us? Can't we in our own forum discuss our challenges and ways forward in peace without these hate filled elements come here to attack us?

We already know our problems, it's sad we are where we are today but that does not give any non Nigerian the effrontery to continually rob it on our face.

Seun,pls talk to your admins to control this forum well, some of the things we tolerate here, South Africa and other African countries can't tolerate them in their forums.

Still below par, and not as classy as the University of Ghana. Nigeria is a disgrace in every ramifications.

Nile University? This one could be an Egyptian university.
Oil rich country with 200 million people yet it can't afford to have decent centers of learning.

Tufiakwa!!

Can we hear word pls
If you so much cherish the so called university of Ghana, you can leave Nigeria and go to Ghana and study.
Inferiority complex at it peak.
Ghanaians here will just be laughing at you people
