If those rascals try sh1t, shoot them at sight..

The gentle stride of a Lion should not be mistaken as a sign of cowardice. Its because GEJ has played politics the way it is played in the US and UK, if he had used iron gloves before now all those dissidents would have fall in line.

We are with you on this GEJ....

Warri _Pikin: Asaba and Uyo Intl. airports were in the initial list to have cargo facilities in the SS Zone. When was Asaba dropped?

That slot has been reserved for the up coming Anambra Int'l Cargo/Passenger Airport. Mind you the Aviation Minister is from Adaeze Oduah is from Anambra state.

omonnakoda: THOSE ARE YOUR OWN WORDS ABOVE . Now you are trying to lie and change track

YOU ARE A LIAR AND A BAD LIAR TOO



You are an empty dunce.
Everytime I meet you on Nairaland you just lie like a child and do not even have the nous to remember your silly lies from page to page

That clueless abagworo is a miscreant character trolling the walls of NL. I think the best thing is to ignore him totally because it is becoming clearly he is not sane at all. I wonder where he got his gibberish that international community is responsible for Nigerian refineries woes.

@ The topic I have a friend working in Orient Petroleum Awka, he told me that at least the level of work there has got up to 89% completed. That it is a modular refinery, its less complex and its easy to install and operate unlike the complex ones in PH, Warri and Kaduna.

So in a nutshell Orient Refinery is most likely to come on stream anytime this year.

Nashville: First of all I know you are speaking for yourself and not the Igbo nation. But can you please tell me as an individual - how your life has improved under PDP. Whatever state you are from, tell me the noticeable improvement you have seen under Jonathan and your PDP Governor! I am waiting to hear you!

Yes PDP is working. APC is a sectional party the recent deporting of hardworking igbos from dirty lagos is an indication of a party with yuruba agenda and nothing more. PDP with all its shortcomings remains the only truly national party. We have already seen what APC are made of before they landed. Even there leaders are confirmed and convicted criminals and extremists.

$£yi:
I keep wondering why the federal government with all the security, intelligence and anti-corruption agencies under her has not been able to trace this dread Islamic terrorist "bokoharam" to Buhari, yet we keep calling this guy(Buhari) a sponsor and the father of bokoharm. Does it mean the federal government is incompetent or scared of making Buhari face the law if found guilty of these crimes we are associating with him?

Wait until ICC picks him up, then you will amazed at the volume of intels that they have got on the guy. All his calls has been under surveillance all these years. He has no hiding place. ICC is after him, they will soon issue formal arrest warrant. Of which FG will readily available to give him up to the International Court.

Don't mind all these clowns, Soludo is just going to offer PDP a backdoor back into Anambra.
Because APGA is not a party, hes just going to use APGA and the decamp back to PDP.

[/s]


See clown..

of course Anambrans prefer PDP and APGA to anything that has the signature of aboki and ofemmmanu- APC. Deal with it, we don't want you guys and your local champions APC anywhere near or around Anambra. Imagine APC that is led by confirmed and convicted criminals as Thiftufunbu and boko leader Buhari.

Former military Head of State and a national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari, said on Tuesday that he has not ruled out his chances of running for the 2015 Presidential election, insisting that such a decision would be tied to the decision of the party.

“My decision will be tied to the constitution of the APC; if the party chooses me as its candidate, I will contest, if they do not consider me, I will not contest but I will still support the party.

“My decision to run for 2015 will solely be the party’s decision,” he said.

Buhari, who was Presidential candidate of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) in the last general election spoke while receiving members of the Democratic Emancipation Movement (DEM) who paid him a courtesy visit in his office in Kaduna.

Speaking on the journey leading to emergence of APC, Buhari said: “I thought about this merger since 2007. This is because I found out that none of the opposition parties can challenge PDP successfully.

“But if we come together with those that have representation at the National Assembly and the Houses of Assembly and go back to sensitise our constituents, even if the PDP wants to rig they would find it impossible to do so.

“I discovered that by being so divided, we made ourselves very vulnerable. So, the best way to survive and for this country to stabilise, we just have to come together and I believe along the line we made necessary sacrifices,” he added.

Speaking on the registration of the APC, Buhari attributed the feat to the impartial role played by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in the events leading to the eventual approval of the party.

Indeed, he praised the commission’s leadership to high heavens over the achievement.

He said the main focus of the APC at the moment would be to mobilise Nigerians towards pushing the ruling PDP out of power in 2015.

“To be honest, we have to thank INEC, because when we thought we have applied according to the 2010 Electoral Act, INEC drew our attention to the section that said there must be a headquarters at the federal capital that is good enough to be called the headquarters of a national party, then our constitution, our manifesto, the harmonisation of the main three parties.

“We thought that the initial nine signatories were enough to manage the party in the interim between registration and convention, but INEC advised us and told us that we need to get between at least 25 to 35 people to come out from the whole geo-political zones to sign.

“If the INEC wanted to be wicked, they could have kept mute and just send us a letter that our application was not complete, they could have done that.

“But for them to send us an observation which was later corrected, I believe they have been very impartial and we thank them for that,” Buhari said.

According to him, “The tension had already come and gone; people now think that they have viable alternative. These feelings and belief are aboard across the country, not only in the North or in the South West.

“There is a good feeling about the party in all the political zones of the country.

“Our next important step is the mobilisation of constituencies to make sure that elections are conducted according to law.

“In 2003, 2007, 2011, a lot of disgraceful things happened during those election years. We are trying now to put the structure of APC on the ground from the ward level to the national, with the hope of giving Nigerians hope and capturing power.

“Those that are going to be in charge of the party from now to the convention are the people that are very committed to the party’s stabilisation and political strength of the country.

“We have started working hard to ensure that we avoid problems.”

Buhari attributed the registration of APC and others to efforts of late Gani Fawehinmi, saying “it was late Gani Fawehinmi who took the letter I wrote and went to Supreme Court to stop the ruling party from denying other parties registration.

“We all thank Gani Fawehinmi for his foresight to challenge the matter at the Supreme Court,” he said.

Buhari said APC was determined to give Nigerians a new lease life and hope.

Speaking earlier, leader of the Democratic Emancipation Movement, Matamaki Tom Maiyashi, said Nigerians are aware of several efforts aimed at sabotaging the registration of APC.

Meanwhile, APC said on Tuesday that it was not bothered about the identity of its Presidential flag-bearer in 2015, adding that the office of the Presidency was not its priority for now.

Interim National Chairman of the party, Bisi Akande, said this at the inauguration of the national interim management of APC in Abuja on Tuesday.

When asked of the position of the party on the Presidency, Akande said: “We have been listening to people talking about the Presidency. We have not reached that stage, until after our national convention which is around November or December.

“By then, we shall be talking about the Presidency. The only exception is Anambra State. We are holding congresses.”

Akande, at the briefing where other national officers were present, also announced that the new party would embark on membership drive to register new members nationwide.

He said the party would use five members for each of the 8,000 wards nationwide for the registration drive.

“I am sure by October or November, we should have completed the exercise,” he said.

On ideology of the APC, Akande said: “We have a manifesto but which needs a lot of fine-tuning and by the time we do, it would not be difficult for Nigerians to know where we belong but by the attitudes of our 11 Governors, you should have seen where we belong as a party.”

In a related development, Ekiti State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Makanjuola Ogundipe, on Tuesday described APC as being “dead on arrival”, adding that “APC is just a new baby who cannot stand the heat of this election.”

According to Ogundipe, “ACN (Action Congress of Nigeria) only changed its name to APC because the members and leaders are ashamed of their past.”

The PDP chieftain spoke in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital, on Tuesday following a peace meeting between the warring factions of the party in Ekiti State brokered by its national secretariat.

Ogundipe encouraged party members to show interest in the 2014 governorship race, just as he advised them to always concur with whatever position taken by the leadership in order not to erode the party’s supremacy.

With the successful brokering of peace, all the suspended members, including former Governor of the state, Ayodele Fasyose, have now been brought back into the party’s fold.

In an enlarged meeting of stakeholders at the popular Ojujoda Hotel in Ado-Ekiti, a four-man national PDP delegation led by Umar Damagum expressed joy that all aggrieved members have resolved to work together in the overall interest of the party.

Although Damagun did not address the controversial issue of consensus arrangement in choosing party candidate for the coming governorship election which almost tore the party apart in the state, he said all warring groups attended the meeting.

He said that points to the fact that they were determined to embrace peace.

“I am happy and confident that we are more than resolved after this meeting in Ekiti PDP to take what belongs to us in 2014, and when the time comes, the leadership of our party will do what is right,” Damagun added.

The PDP chieftain said his coming was a confirmation that the suspension placed on some of the members as well as officials of the party in Ekiti have been quashed.

While Fayose and his cronies, like PDP state Secretary, Tope

Aluko, Publicity Secretary, Kola Oluwawole, and Women Leader, Busola Oyebode, were suspended for anti-party activities, the group also in a counter move suspended the chairman for alleged bribery and highhandedness.

Damagum, who addressed newsmen after the parley, expressed happiness on the progress made, saying the party will wax stronger to confront the APC in the impending governorship battle in Ekiti State.

One_Naira: Actually reading this thread brought joy to my heart. I didn't care much about the wannabe Igbos but I adored how the Anambra people supports the right man for the job. I have no problem with ngige, the man has done some good works. I still see him as a traitor but anyone that deny ngige hadn't made an impact is lying to himself. Compared to Soludo, Ngige lacks vision. Not to include that Ngige openly supported the nazi act of his party which now puts the question on the people's mind whether or not the man cares about the people or just his party. Anyway, I've always supported Soludo even before the deportation saga. Soludo to me is like the SE of Utomi. Whatever promise he makes, he tries his darnest to achieve it. I am not Anambra but as an Igbo, I'll give my input. The man would work wonders for Anambra so Anambra peeps, use your head. Vote wisely. You people messed up on the last election, don't mess it up again. Vote wisely.

SOLUDO 2014.

FYI: We didn't mess up during the last election. Obi is equally a revolutionist. He has set Anambra on a sound footing that has characterized the rapid transformation of Anambra. Even Soludo confirmed that Obi has laid the foundation of new Anambra. Obi is an administrator and a wise planner. We Anambrans, will forever be grateful to Obi for his immense work that has dept in developing all sectors and all corners of Anambra at the same time and pace.

adconline: Nope, I disagree with his comparison. Anambra is about 5 million and you have at least 3 airports that are 45mins away from its major cities. So if NYC has 2, Anambra should have none with about 5m folks. Waste of funds!

Why have you dedicated all your time all the time fighting the emergence of Anambra International Cargo/Passenger airport? What are your fear? That Anambra will become Nigeria's economic hub? My friend grow up, because non of your bitterness will stop the moving train- Anambra.

FYI: The cargo airport has been approve by FG and prelimnary work has resumed on the site. The massive land has been acquired around Nteje/Aguleri borders and it has been equally fenced. Orient Petroleum is partnering with Anambra state government in executing this mega project.

Decides to sell APGA? How can Obi be jealous of a pauper, a crook and a talkative who has mortgaged the future of poor imo state thru dubious loans from all the banks with nothing on the ground to show. Does the clown okorosha knows how APGA was formed and ran before your potbellied master was pitied and given a ticket?

Am a living witness okorosha was virtually living in Awka when he was begging Obi to give him ticket. Okorosha should be grateful to Obi because if not for Obi and influence of Eze Igbo Ikemba your clueless gov will not be talking today.

Thank God Imo people are wiser now, they will give him the ohakim treatment. You guys should Pray to vote in a decent person next time devoid of fraudulent activities.

Empty trash..next..

Op, try harder scumbag.

Okwute ndigbo gburu gburu..

Anambra is da bomb..

Obi is working, hater gonna hate

Chima_Adeoye: Exactly! I only support the South African department store spreading through Nigeria because it will usher in the modern way of shopping into Nigeria.

Nigerians shall otherwise continue to build village style super-markets if this new trend never open in Nigeria. Similar to how the MTN showed that GSM mobile phone technology is the way of the future when our government was still wasting billions of Naira putting an outdated Analogue-digital telephone exchange in Nitel.Which made indigenous phone companies as RELTEL to copy that and equally waste billions of naira installing useless Analogue phone systems.After MTN,Nigeria now has indigenous GSM companies such as Globacom investing in the right technology and not Analogue phone companies.

For entire system to change, we need international brands to come and compete within our economy..

When you compare MTN, ETisale, GLO; you will understand that GLO is still learning the ropes. The excellence and sophistication MTN and even ETisalat has brought to bear on telecom system has upped the stakes.

So in a nutshell we need more of Shoprite brands in our major cities of Abuja, Lagos, Onitsha, PH, Kano etc, because from all indications the cities are hugely under used.

Peter Obi remains is a role model. He achieved so much without borrowing a dime from any bank. Even those that borrowed couldn't achieve a quarter of his feat. Dalu Okwute Ndi Igbo nile gburu gburu..

CyberG: You are getting it totally backward, a clear case of ignorance, lack of deep and clear thinking. First, Nigeria is what it is today because your father and grandfathers like Azikiwe, out of an inordinate ambition to profit disproportionately from the union at and after Independence, did not see far enough like Chief Obafemi Awolowo. He and his lieutenants espoused a position Ojuku would rather canvass a few years after independence and for which Azikiwe's kin paid not less than 3 M lives in that war alone. Are you following me? He wanted a constitutional option that would allow any part of the union to stay out of the union but Azikiwe and his fellow ibos refused for they thought being in a nation in which no one could leave but with a majority Hausa/Fulani population who were relatively "disadvantaged" then would give them more opportunities to rule the lives of several million more people, bigger market, more reach and more money while lording it over them in their lands! In fact, after independence and during the first republic when Azikiwe had another chance to form an alliance with the Yoruba West you are upset at today, what did he do? He preferred the "illiterate, backward, etc" Northern Hausa/Fulani and it seemed to work out only he did not realize that he came up with the short end of the stick for himself and his people with a mere ceremonial position! Did you read that history or were you alive then? The greed for power would eventually culminate in the first coup in Nigeria which killed leaders from the other parts of Nigeria but the return match a few months later eliminated ibo leadership. Ojukwu went to war and the result? A more catastrophic loss! Why am I telling you these? [size=18pt]To knock it again into your empty skulls that the Yorubas are not and were never the cause of your problems, blame your fathers and leaders! [/size]

The leaders of the Yorubas, led by War General, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, anticipated a problem long before it actually came up and proffered a solution that could have left any other part in fact "begging or negotiating" with another part if it wanted to break away! Now, that is the position anyone would want to be in where you can not only negotiate on equal terms but with a slight advantage but Ibo leaders completely threw it away and helped to put Chief Awolowo in prison to dilute his influence and boy did they all fail! LWKMD! Enter J.T. Aguiyi-Ironsi, what did he do? He still with a backwards mentality compounded Nigeria's problem by abolishing the little room that could allow regions of Nigeria to showcase their value to other parts of the country so it is clear who is ahead, who may need some more help from a stronger part of the country, etc by abolishing REGIONALISM with which the Yoruba South West had OPENED A HUGE, INSURMOUNTABLE LEAD over the ibos, moreso any part of the country! What did he do? Slow them down by being able to dictate the terms of governance from a UNITARY government led by the ibos! You see why history cannot be kind to you? Some humility might buy some regard for ibos but even the smallest individual from the smallest tribe in Nigeria CANNOT regard ibos for if they sought to take control of the lives of bigger peoples by population and resources (NORTH & WEST), what is the hope of the Bachama in Adamawa State, or Uyanga in Cross Rivers State, the Zayam in Bauchi, or Uneme in Edo State? How about the other hundreds of tribe you have never heard before, some of them known to exist even before "ibo" was discovered e.g. the Binis? This is why even a smaller tribe knows that the Laws of Averages ensures that their LOT is MUUUUUCCCCCHHHH better in a big country like Nigeria where NO SINGLE TRIBE OR PEOPLE can literally walk over them, subjugate them with none to help or standup for them AT ALL! This is why no other part of Eastern Nigeria want to be stuck with an ibo biafra country even if its street were lined with GOLD (a joke really for even with all the make believe ibo boasting, asphalt is yet to be laid over the larger percentage of your MAJOR streets!) You see where this is ending now? The egg of nationhood was broken at independence and except there is an easy way to reverse engineer a broken egg into its previous state, you cannot unilaterally put the blame of the errors of your fathers and grandfathers on the Yorubas who spoke of today more than 50 years ago! Are we clear?

Now, let us assume the current commonwealth of peoples called Nigeria will someday grant the wish of the ibos to, in your own words allow [size=18pt]the embittered and frustrated igbos is to either force them out of Nigeria so that they go to hell with their Biafra[/size], start by demonstrating your goodwill and nobility to this objective by moving back into your Iboland to constitute an almost 100% ibo country! Let each man speak to his fellow ibo, make out full page newspaper adverts, buy airtime on foreign and international news and media to announce that all ibos will move back to their own countries within say one year and REMAIN there! You have constantly said that the Yorubas and Hausas and the several hundred other tribes of Nigeria are responsible for holding the Jews of Africa (LWKMD) down, now show the whole world how you will turn the streets of iboland into something similar like the heavenly Jerusalemic paradise. Line with gold, diamond and sapphire! Deck it with ruby and pearls. Change your clayey dirt-brown sand and erosion prone gullies into an oasis of agricultural plenty. Build huge buildings like you bragged you had but was destroyed by the Nigerian Army during the Civil War. Turn your water into wine so even travellers trying to cross from the far east to the far west in Lagos could take a break at the Niger bridge, go down to the water and take a glass of wine right from that river! You cried about your biafran currency, create currency minted in precious stones, make your economy so great just like you said you would. After you have done these things, you will not even notice the "crappy" Nigeria you whine about all the time! The poor Hausa/Fulani would be spotted without uttering a word for all of you will be dressed in princely robes and your women adorned in knee length mini skirts of pure jewels. Your so called enemies in the north will come to beg you and your Ijaw neighbours wil all convert into ibos. I could go on...but until you do these things, SHUT YOUR BIG BOASTING MOUTH!

I can assure you, and I do not even speak for the Yorubas, the Yorubas are not going to cower out of a Nigeria you helped to force on everyone! They do not whine like ibos do for you flock into their lands EVERYDAY, just like you flock north despite boko haram, despite that you said the Hausa man is your enemy, you still will not leave anyone or their lands alone! Oh, you complain about the Ijaws and whine about how they sabotaged your still born biafra but you cannot leave even one drop of their oil alone! In the Yoruba country, where you are just hosts and MUST leave if Nigeria were to break up, you have your eyes on every square cm of their lands from Lagos to Osun to Ogun to Ekiti, to Oyo! They "invented" more land called Eko Atlantic, you cannot leave them alone! Your men marry their girls! Your women won't leave the Yoruba men alone so at least you can create mixed babies! Somehow, you think they will just get up and leave when they are not only bossing the competition, but on their terms and in fact do not care whether ibos or anyone is impressed. On the other hand, ibos feel a need to show off their money, that they have something going for them, that they are somewhat special heavenly creatures! LWTMB! Well, the Yorubas in whose land you rent to leave in are not going to shy away from any competition but it seems ibos would rather want to "compete" with Hausas and other smaller tribes with whom they think they can take one over them. Well, I hope you children of this generation learned better than your fathers - if you learned at all from their mistakes!

Garbage..

My friend go back to school or rather file charges in court to reclaim the money your poor parents wasted on you. Inferiority complex filled yorrobas. Iti akwu..
