A former aide to Ex President of Nigeria, Reno Omokri has claimed that President Buhari today commissioned a road which was already commissioned in 2010 by the then Governor of Sokoto State who is now a senator.

Reno Omokri stated this in a series of tweets he made this evening on his official twitter page.

The tweets reads..

Picture 1: Ex Governor of Sokoto state, Senator Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, commissioning the Hadejia Junction - Tasheguwa - Guri road in 2010 on Sule Lamido’s invitation.

Picture 2: President Buhari commissioning the same road today.

How many times does a road get commissioned?.

Sincerely speaking, I hate how Lagos is coveting all these development when every regions supposed to enjoy d dividend of good governance.

It'll only make Lagos an urban sprawl if economic prowess is vested in Lagos alone cos more n more people will continue to migrate to Lagos en-masse.

A sensible federal govt supposed to encourage economic activities in every region.

Nigeria: Ibaka Deep Seaport Not in National Projects Plan - Investigation


Despite the yearly allocation of several billions of naira for the construction of a proposed greenfield deep seaport at Ibaka in Akwa Ibom State by both the State Government and the Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA) since 2011, the project has remained elusive, with no evidence of a port being built at the proposed site.

The project is missing in the National Integrated Infrastructure Master Plan and in the list of similar projects planned in partnership between the federal government and state government, with expectations of private investors collaborations, investigations by LEADERSHIP have revealed.

The Ibaka Deep Seaport, a project for which the federal ministry of transport, the NPA and the Akwa Ibom State Government have held several workshops and taken commendations at several events is also missing in a maritime and air transport report prepared by Steer Davies Gleave for the Infrastructure Consortium for Africa (ICA) hosted by

The African Development Bank.

The study, which was carried out to assess the potential for enhanced private participation in the maritime and air transport sectors in Africa however identified the Lekki Deep Seaport measuring 970m of container berths, 320m dry bulk berth, 1-2 oil berths and located 60km east of Lagos.

The Badagry greefield port, Koko Port and Olokola Port were also listed with their capacity and promoters.

The water at Ibaka is said to have a natural draft of 11 metres, without dredging, making it a huge potential for possible deep seaport construction.

Akwa Ibom State has continued to budget for the port, which Governor Godswill Akpabio said would create employment for 100,000 Nigerians.

The NPA had also told LEADERSHIP in Uyo at the PCC meeting that the deep seaport would be completed in 2015.

When LEADERSHIP visited the proposed site of the deep seaport at Ibaka, there was nothing to show that a seaport was being planned at coastal community.

A lonely dilapidated narrow road, better described as a colonial road leads to Ibaka, from Oron. As early as 2011, the Akwa Ibom State Governor told a Nigeria Ports Consultative Council (PCC) meeting in Uyo that his government had concluded plans to dualise the road.

What truth is their to be told about a lunatic that wasted almost three million souls of his own kinsmen on foolishness n ego tripping.

A Cambridge graduate who could not outsmart a gworro chewing, kunu sipping aboki who attended only Koranic school.

Some of you Igbo need to have your brain examined with the kind of arguments you put up to defend your failures and unending foolishness.

narorose:
Y do u talk so unreasonably?wat has the Igbos got to do with this?

hardywaltz:
Op u need a night crash course in Economics.
But I guess it's too late for you to unlearn coz ur heart is already filled with hate.

Cherez:
People like you are the one dragging development in Nigeria.
This post is one of many posts we need to put govt in check. Yes some Igbos here went tribal but you should stand firm and make Amosun work.
Amosun is a heartless beast building his white house in with Julius Berger but the whole of Ado-odo/OTA LGA, the honeycomb of the state is in huge mess.
See also Atan/Agbara road, Lusada/Igbesa road, Idiroko/Owode/Ilaro road, Sango/Ijoko/Akute roads; in fact Ado-odo/OTA is so horrible on roads yet you guys won't caution Amosun but to come here and start useless comparisons.
Apart from the new Enugu/Osha Road, Anambra State is FAR better than Ogun State on roads.
Ogun is a naturally blessed state; everywhere in that Ado-odo/OTA LGA is money yet intra-tribal hate and bitterness of not having block votes keeps Amosun away from growing this beautiful state to a world class one.
OGUN PEOPLE MUST NOT LISTEN TO THIS GUY AND HIS TYPE BUT FOCUS AND SAVE THEIR STATE FROM WICKED LEADERS.
OGUN WILL BE BETTER SOMEDAY

Makarfi is the council of former PDP chairman and governor, Ahmad Makarfi. Governor El-Rufai’s candidates also won handily in a senator, Shehu Sani’s constituency of Kajuru LG. The two APC senators and their supporters boycotted the elections.

When last was there flood disaster in the East? Come on,we're too wise to let such repeat itself here,unlike the foools in the west that fail to learn from the past and allow natural disaster to be an annual incident over there. Well i now know why your government is as dumb as they are,it's simply because they are products of the dumb masses of which you are one.
