100% correct,Dr cosmas maduka has single handed transformed the life's of people living in his community in such a way that I highly doubt if dangote has ever done what this man has done,he practical built a new town for his people,from modern markets,high court,hospitals,church's of all denomination,schools,police station,hotels,built tarred roads,bore holes everywhere,standby caterpillars for quick repairs of interior roads,house for anyone that cares to apply for one, palace for traditional ruler,subsidized tipper trucks to many drivers in the town that cares to apply,infact this man built so many free houses for his people that it's beyond belief,a doctor with zero government loot or government connection doing such things with his private money,I am still yet to see that record broken by other Nigerian billionaires.

You are right.

Like I said, Soludo is no match for him.

Just to correct you though, he is Dr. Godwin Maduka from Umuchukwu in Orumba South, not Dr. Cosmas Maduka of Coscharis.

Abu kwa'm nwafor Orumba.

PHIPEX:
It's Soludo we need. Maduka might be a good man but we dont need a philanthropist, what we need is a seasoned Economist to turn the economy of the state around

Oga, we don't need Soludo. Not even for a second. He should keep his economic prowess to himself.

Soludo is no match to Dr. Maduka in every ramification.

How much has Soludo done for Isuofia?

I doubt that there is any single person outside politics in Anambra who has committed so much of his personal fund to enhance his people, community and state as Dr. Godwin Maduka of Umuchukwu.

Man, you are still contradicting yourself and you got the lowest IQ here (I never meant to be disrespectful but you deserved it)

. Did you travel to Mars when Herdsmen killed Farmers in Delta state?.

What led to the Creation of Amoketun in the south west?

So insurgencies happens in not more than 2 percent of total land area in Nigeria. Where did you get that from?

With the issues on ground, who knows their next plan?

The Herdsmen killing in almost all the 6 giopolitical zones of the federal are they from heaven?
.....

The ban on okada does not affect all Lagos areas and I can't find any foul play in my comment.

To think of it, Are the people living in the affected locations not living their lifes after the ban?


Some times, some fundamental human rights are looked down upon if it will pave way for development.

Free yourself from ethic bias.

Amokekun was not created to address insecurity by a particular ethnic group, but to stem insecurity in general terms, by complementing the efforts of security agencies in the Southwest.

You people must stop living the delusion that all crimes committed across the country are by herdsmen. I have lived in every part of this country, and I travel across the country regularly. What about ritual and cult-related violence and killings, armed robbery, assassination, human trafficking, child theft as well as kidnapping?

Recall the killing of Rev. Fr. Paul Offu in Awgu, Enugu state. It was blamed on herdsmen until some persons were apprehended. I want to ask, were they herdsmen or even from the North afterall? Please, research and give me the names of the suspects, since I have given you background information. I can give you more of such cases.

I am from the Southeast if you care to know. Crime has nothing to do with ethnicity. Are you trying to say that herdsmen are not being killed by farmers, ethnic militias and local vigilantes; or that they are immune to death?

Five months before Rev. Fr. Offu's gruesome murder, the parish priest of St. Mark's Catholic Church in Obinofia Ndiuno in Ezeagu LGA of Enugu state was killed.

While I can admit anywhere that there are some mindless herdsmen who hide under the guise of cattle herding to commit different crimes, I would never concede to the idea of giving ethnic colouration to crime.

Also, I am not surprised that despite your acclaimed 'superior' IQ, you see herdsmen killings as insurgency. While farmers-herdsmen crisis has lingered for decades, and has produced graver consequences for Nigeria, it is not the same as insurgency.

On the issue of ban by Lagos state, I think your suggestion that certain fundamental rights of humans could be overlooked or trampled in pursuit of development clearly confirms how 'high' your IQ is.

Power sector?


We are talking about the system that is not working here.

If there is Light 24/7 does that stop the rouges in the National Assembly and the Senate not to steal.

Would that make them make good laws to favour the masses?

Would light change the mindset of BUBU

Would it make him behave like someone who pass through a school.?

Would light not make him not bias in putting only the Northerners in Key positions.

Would 24/7 light solve the problem of marginalization.

My guy leave power sector alone.

Power sector is nothing in the mess Nigeria is.

Its either Restructuring or Breakup.

When we breakup let each region do their light. Which ever region that loves darkness should ignore Power.

Shikenah.

Do we have bad laws in Nigeria?

Fixing power will throw up countless number of industries and factories within a few years, and it is human beings that would work in those industries, not ghosts. I am surprised your bias didn't let you see that glaring fact. Moreso, operating costs of existing businesses will reduce substantially while allowing them to expand and take in more employees. The telecom sector in Nigeria alone spends over N10billion purchasing fuel yearly. Does that make any sense to you?

You talked about 'rogues' in the NASS but forgot that the people you called rogues come from the different regions of Nigeria. Or are they from just one region? Aren't they the same people you believe will go to their regions and fix power and every other amenity? Abi, another set of people wan fall from heaven?

Whether we have regions or states is not the issue. After all, we were in regions when we went into a deadly civil war.

If going to school is what you represented in what you wrote, then I am afraid we have even more problems than we can imagine.

As for the president putting Northerners in key positions and marginalization, perhaps you could have been specific, otherwise I do not see any of such.

executive12:
And you think the power sector can be fixed without restructuring Nigeria? Nigeria is a dysfunctional country. Nothing can be fixed here without first restructuring the country.

Restructuring Nigeria?

What does that even mean in reality?

What has that got to do with steady power supply?

jlinkd78:
Confederation with a central government was d best option then and still now but If I say it d way it's in my mind then secession is d best now. Biafra comes to mind. If u read this OBJ lines with a matured reasoning brain u will understand that somehow he is fed up with one Nigeria and his usually Pan Naijaphilic tendency waning. Words like self determination for d first time is gaining ground and even OBJ doesn't want a one Nigeria wia his ppl will be second class citizen. My advise, OBJ u are old enough be courageous enough and say it without euphemism, Nigeria is over. History will be fair to you if u suggest and support self determination.

OBJ fed up with Nigeria?

He is hugely responsible for the mess that the country is trying to come out of.

Had Obasanjo fixed the power sector alone, Nigeria would have been placed on the path of real development and growth.

dake40:
You are still struggling to make any sense. Insurgencies are happening all over the country and it's people like you who would raise foul voice on goverment, now a clever idea to combat this issue and all you can come about is this unsound piece you wrote.

Listen mate, when Government pass some laws, some people will be affected, and it's for the betterment of all.

Those affected should find a solution.....

Lgos banned Keke, does that stop people from living?

I am not surprised that your low IQ has failed you again.

What is complex about what I submitted earlier?

Why are you deviating to the Lagos issue? Besides, the ban on keke and okada in Lagos is limited to a few areas. Don't come here to misrepresent facts. There isn't a total ban of keke and okada in Lagos. As a matter of fact, there are significantly more areas where they can carryout their operations than where they cannot.

Importantly too, and for your clarification, insurgency is not all over Nigeria. While no one desires insurgency, no matter how small the area concerned is, I can boldly tell you that the area under substantial threat by insurgents is less than 2% the total land area of Nigeria.

Nobody is contending about government laws and all what not. We are talking about collective priorities, objectivity and socioeconomic impact of laws within the context of rights to legitimate livelihood, peaceful and harmonious existence.

Xisnin:
Who is more foolish than a man who values eating beef than saving life?

Please, tell me the part of the world where beef is not eaten.

Have you even seen 'real' beef consumption? How much beef do we even consume in Nigeria?

For a government, this should not be a priority, especially if it is in reaction to acts of extremism and violence by a few unruly herdsmen. It makes no sense at all.

Air pollution kills 7 million people every year, according to UNEP. Nigeria is today Africa's most polluted country, and ranks among the top 10 most polluted countries in the world.

What is Delta state and Nigeria doing about that? There was a proposal to the Delta state governor over two years ago regarding 'Green Cooling' in view of preventing thousands of tons carbon emissions into the atmosphere and enhancing public health. What has the governor done about it? The proposal is wrapped with unique skills training and sustainable jobs for at least 200 youths in Delta state. What has been done about that?

Na beef be their problem...abeg, make dem shift!

Xisnin:
Okowa about to make the most important move of his career.
I have suggested that all states affected by herdsmen crisis ban the buying and selling of beef.
Apart from being dangerous to human health and longevity, it is fueling the killing of innocent people.

There is nothing as effective as an economic blockade since the killers are being protected by federal machinery.
I hope he can see it through.

Both you and the government of Delta state are unserious.

Make una carry una foolishness go abeg!

Let them continue to play the role of an opposition

Destructive and non-constructive opposition role you mean?

They had 16 years to fix Nigeria but chose to spend the entire period squandering, dividing and empoverishing Nigerians. Had they, starting from Obasanjo in 1999, laid the right infrastructural, ethical, institutional and moral foundations, we would not be where we are today for sure.

May God punish them!

I had hoped that you would provide proofs of looting by Mrs Buhari.

Awol1:
We told fools that this man has an agenda antithetical to the Nigerian agenda, judging from his antecedents and continued utterances...

But they called us names and dressed a cow in a coat and sold him through the southwest press.

Today they are introducing Amotekun. A clear testament that the cow they wore a coat, has failed.

Imagine Fulani Muslims being in charge of all the armed forces.

What it means is that if war starts in this country, they will prosecute their tribal war with state resources and state trained forces.

And you can't smuggle in arms because their kinsman is at customs and Intelligence too.

Our current quagmire became possible because some sophisticated morons were useful idiots and couldn't see beyond their nose.

Maybe Foresight is a gift not enjoyed by all after all.

Wailing wailer!

SoNature:
Give it to Bar Babatunde Fashola.

This man is Yoruba, but he has visited the SE/SS inspecting projects more than Chibuike Amaechi who comes from that region.

I am sure Amaechi has no plans to go for an elective position again because he is not setting the right precedence.

Did just you finish drinking uncooked akamu?

The 2nd Niger Bridge is perhaps one of the landmark projects of Fashola's Works and Housing ministry just as the Lagos-Ibadan Railway project is Amaechi's star project.

Amaechi practically lives in Lagos. So, what are you saying?

You guys can't just stop being unnecessarily petty.

uuzba:
This bridge is not looking fine O. We want to be snapping fine picture on it O.
They're just gumming the cement as if it's room and palour they are making.
After now, you will go to China and be opening teeth when you see their own bridge.

Who be this one?

It is Julius Berger that is handling the project.

You guys are just enemies of Nigeria.

Awol1:
They are working so hard to gather points they'd consider enough to curry the Eastern votes in 2023.

But hey, I think I need to remind us that the Second Niger bridge was commissioned as Public Private Partnership Project.

What that means, as I remember president GEJ saying then, is that once the govt pays it's counterpart fund for the project, which Jonathan did, the project will go on irrespective of who is in power.

That's the truth they don't want us to remember.

And what Jonathan said is what you took seriously abi?

What percentage completion did Jonathan achieve with the project?

Didn't you know that the project was reviewed under the current adminstration to include a rail line to Onitsha from Agbor?

It makes no sense to hinge the project on 'trying to curry Igbo votes' because Igbos have never particularly supported Buhari, and Buhari is serving his 2nd term already.

The 2nd Niger Bridge is a national interest project, whichever way you look at it, but especially in the sense of the economy and ease of doing business.

I would like to let you know that a PPP project does not imply that it is not a government project. The PPP is just designed to fasttrack realization of critical projects.

The funds coming from the private companies or consortiums are not free, as participating entities will recoup their investments.

Awol1:
As much you think I indicted GEJ, my grouse is that GEJ didn't suggest building new seaports while having not fixed the terrible state of the existing ones.

How can you start a new building when the one you live in has a leaking roof?

Who does that?

I didn't just think that you indicted GEJ because that was exactly what you did.

And you thought it was okay to call everyone who supports Buhari's administration names.

Plus you went ahead to misrepresent that nothing was being done to the existing seaports, which was glaringly untrue.

At least, you saw the link confirming substantially increasing activities at the Warri seaport. You go and see things for yourself.

Would you say that you are privy to the inner justifications for the approval of two new seaports? Do you know if these are results of specific fresh FDIs into the country or due to strategic long term considerations?

Oga, if the roof of your mud house is leaking, you will need to build a new, more solid house prior to bringing down the mud house.

Awol1:
GEJ didn't do it because he is not as stupid as the fools you are supporting.

Apapa wharf gridlock is a national disaster. What has your govt done about it?

Calabar port needs dredging so that bigger vessels can berth. What has your govt done about it?

Warri and Onne ports are reported to be battling obselete infrastructure and piracy. What has your govt done about?

Onitsha seaport needs dredging to start taking vessels. What has your govt done about it?

It is only fools of wanton stupidity that would start a whole new ports while having not fixed existing ones.

Do these people have brains at all?

You are so daft that you didn't realize the implications of your 'Onitsha seaport needs', 'Onne seaport needs', 'Calabar seaport needs dredging for larger vessels'......bla bla bla.


Any mentally stable person will read what you wrote and figure out that you only succeeded in indicting Jonathan. If all these ports need this and that, what did Jonathan do in office for 5 years, especially when we consider that he is from the South south region?

Who told you that the seaports are not been attended to?

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.pulse.ng/news/local/200-ships-now-berth-in-warri-ports-npa-dg/sbvg4ds.amp&ved=2ahUKEwiWt8yx-cnnAhUGXxoKHVnSA64QFjAQegQIAxAB&usg=AOvVaw0S_Gwg4X1sfKeGgwnsInyG&ampcf=1

The Apapa-Oshodi-Oworoshoki Expressway project and extension of the Lagos-Ibadan Railway project to Apapa wharf are critical interventions being currently put in place to extensively address the gridlock in that axis of Lagos state.

Who now is suffering wanton stupidity and is without brains?

So, the piece of news to the effect that the Abuja-Kaduna Rail Project will be set for completion in December 2014 is what you relied on to say that GEJ completed the project?

Share the link of GEJ commissioning the Abuja-Kaduna Rail Project.

Stop forming madness. U claimed buhari brought about the Presidential Fertilizer Initiative and the revitalization of Fertilizer Blending Plants across the country And I asked u the one in enugu and u starting foaming in ur mouth.

U dont move across any country Mr Afonja, simply state where the ebonyi fertilizer plant built by buhari is ?? Bloody liar, Umahi built a fertilizer blending plants by himself for his state and u are here claiming it as buharis project, u must be silly.

Dont ever mention Abuja - Kaduna rail line alongside Buhari, it was GEJs project that he completed and commissioned before 2015 election.

U still couldn't list any meaningful project Buhari started and competed, u are listing ongoing projects, ongoing for 5 years in a row.

Goan rest.

So, 'across the country' means the same as 'in each state' to you?

Your ignorance no get part 2 o!

Any meaningful project Buhari started and finished? Do you know how many projects PDP abandoned in 16 years?

So, you expect Buhari to come and start new projects when critical abandoned projects i.e. Mambilla Power Project, Abuja-Kaduna Railway, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Port Harcourt-Enugu Expressway, Onitsha-Enugu Expressway, Benin-Sagamu Expressway, Bonny-Bodo Bridge etc, lie in every nook and cranny of the country.

You are not only a lazy youth, but a mumu youth.

You didn't even know that Ebonyi Fertilizer Plant was established in 2004, and is only been expanded by Gov. Umahi, courtesy of the Presidential Fertilizer Initiative by Buhari.
