It is not just to hear one side of the story without hearing the other!

Now let Otti come again!

Great Abians at home, he do those roads abi he no do am?

You are just as illiterate like your former governor ikpeazu.......do you actually know a budget is a law? To make matters worse for him, he actually diverted and embezzled most if not all the funds.....in China one bullet to the back of his empty skull will have settled this matter. Nigerian politicians have been lucky thus far........something tells me their time may be up........

paramakina202:
I am from the East and I can tell you for free that everyone is fücking tired of IPOB sit at home and political/religious/traditional/cooperate and business leaders are all working 24/7 to make sure it comes to an end.
IPOB is a curse to SE even to Nnamdi Kanu the founder.

This disused fart bag is here again, you are always missing when fulanis massacre Ndigbo but talk of IPOB you get an instant hard on! take your rubbish outta here!

Exousiang01:
This noise is the reason you have issues nationwide.
The North has been feeding the nation for years without as much as pin drop.

But one rice mill, Anambra has become the food basket of the nation.

Yet no one has seen the rice fron The biggest rice meal in any market.
Are they selling to spirits?
LoL.
Small minds

you are a fool....How much grants and loans have farmers in the east recieved! Go to the north and see the billions of naira that they enjoy from the federal government!

GerogeI:
This one is a miss, bandwagon effect. How many people are flying that he thinks the market is big enough for him, air peace and United Airlines?


Why not focus on your area of strength - oil and gas. Is Obijakson aware that there are proven gas Wells in Alor, Akukwa near Awka, Igboariam, and Amansiodo. And one unserious oil company currently has the prospecting licence OPL 916, 917, 906 and 905. Orient Petroleum is only working on OPL 915 Anambra River which just about 20% of the area.

Companies are rushing to Ogun state because of cheap gas, gas produced by Imo and Delta states, piped to Ogun via Lagos, and made available in a single hub zone. We can have even better in Anambra because we own the gas.

Frankly, I would love to meet the Obijackson, I have some ideas to share with him. He does not know where to invest. If aviation is doing 12% return on investment, oil and gas is doing 50 -60% return on investment especially now all prices have been deregulated.

sounds like an executive or private jet charter service!

Sergio103:
Ohanézè ndiigbo needs to do something about this issue.

We are taking it an inconsequential issue by ogogoro drunkards but in years to come it will actually affect us. Ohanézè needs to speak up to this ijaw riffraffs.

Under our very own watch.....opobo is gone.

I saw a thread in front page yesterday of "ijaw city Opobo".....I was like since when?

We don't have to overlook this.

The mad ijaw dogs are playing on our I don't care attitude.

Finally........the Ikwere People will one day regret ever denying thier igboness. Ijaw is seriously trying to claim the major/most populated tribe in Rivers State...... Ikwere is busy fighting igbos

Ohaneze should be disbanded if they are no longer up to the task of defending Igbo interests, the leaders are way too old anyway! Ijaw and Yorubas are proving to be a thorn in the flesh of Ndigbo in the south....it is about time we begin to navigate their hostility in a needful manner!

[quote author=adamusuleiman1 post=129970264][/quote]All from Gas deposits in Alaigbo but surprise surprise not 1 inch of pipeline into any town in South East.....Ohaneze is a useless body I swear!

Obi got the message as they say in America and what he did is standard investment promotion. New York campaigned for Amazon to locate there for instance.

But if you are campaigning is it when your city transport is marked by tricycles and mini shuttle buses? There is a reason India gets tiny investment compared to China that went modern completely not accommodating primitivity.

I like what is happening in Enugu because the governor there gets it. He got Germans to design waterworks for him and pipe water from ninth mile to the city. He is building a massive bus terminus. That's city level thinking.

Onitsha meanwhile the trailers and buses coming into the city has been left to the one man touts to organize.

Onitsha goods everywhere but where are the factories? Where is the power for industry?

Designing cities requires vision and thoughtfulness. European cities the iconic symbols of cities are public infrastructure otherwise known as the people's money. New York City. George Washington Bridge, Hoover Tunnel, Subway, Central Park, Grand Central Station, Statue of Liberty, grid pattern of Avenues and roads.

Please name iconic or grand public infrastructure in Igbo cities. Even sculptures are hastily assembled without much thoughtbor quality. In the land of Enwonwu.

Soludo should stop begging Anambrarians to invest and give them many reasons to invest.

That last sentence in your post "finish work" for me, I could not put it better myself! I was born into a trading family based in Lagos.........I knew when Igbo traders moved to Alaba international and when they moved to Aspamda...........Those 2 markets somewhat sanitized Isale Eko or Lagos island markets......the salutary effects also impacted Iddo bus terminus and Otto markets...............Onitsha needs a dedicated Town Development Authority....the way Otti established one for Aba. Way too many passenger and goods laden heavy commercial vehicles come into the center of onitsha! It just gives the town a near siege mentality........with all the bedlam that follows such traffic.

The second Niger bridge has opened up a complete new axis that soludo can exploit......why not locate a modern bus terminal in that axis like Enugu has designed for the chaotic holy ghost area?
I hear the same planet design coy that did Oshodi terminal is also doing the Enugu one!

We can mandate all luxury buses ,commuter buses ,trailers and semis to offload in the new terminals, we can co locate goods warehouses and storage units in that axis too! Way too many containers are offloaded inside onitsha markets............I dunno, town planning experts in the house can contribute.......I tire sef!

IBB007:
lol…fake life

No be only am o! That wicked sef follow! Always claiming what he does not have!

LadyExcellency:
A Southerner should not poke their nose in Northern Affairs. Same country, with different laws and different ways of life.

The 2 parts have no business being together then? Nigeria is not supposed to be a country talk less of being a nation!

How can you put Afghanistan and and Christian United Kingdom and expect them to become one Nation! Who does that!!!

Terrible!

"Tinubu will handle the economy, Shettima will handle security."

Oya na.

The biggest potential mistake Tinubu made is to allow fulanis take charge of the National security Adviser and ministry of defence portfolios..........the fulanis should be smoked out of all sensitive security posts...........these people who marry their sisters and cousins are naturally clannish and insular..........they will always leak national security secrets to their people............and they have access to resources they have looted for decades! These people have the ability to make life difficult for this government!

Paraman:
Some Nigerians are wicked sef

Government needs to start jailing this saboteurs.

Some people will claim the Lagos State Govt is targeting their properties but the pigs will mock Lagos state when the state get flooded

Mumu....I hope you are not calling a particular people pigs ? H

immortalcrown:
Make dem no later shout tribalism.

After dealing with them, go for the buildings under electric wires. The law has always been there but inconsiderate humans are building houses under electric wires. Some even carve roofs around electric poles, which clearly shows that the poles were there before the buildings were started.

But the government should also jail all the ministry of lands workers that signed documents for those buildings. Don't punish only one person for an offense committed by many.

You must b e blind.......how many houses are blocking the canal there.......? They are just looking for whom to victimize

simi fubara that cannot utter even your asamana........talkless of making 1 complete sentence in Ijaw! when the ogogoro clear comot your eyes ,you will carry your belongings into your canoe and paddle back to your Bayelsa creek abode!

The solution to Igbo resurgence is to build world class cities that have strong service and industrial bases. There are three core cities in igboland. Enugu, Onitsha and Aba. None is inspiring. Go past the space shipped Secretariat building Sullivan built and it's already wearing a forlorn look. Onitsha with it's majestic Niger Bridges and wide expressway then you enter the city and primitive trading everywhere.

The greatness of cities is accumulation of capital both physical and human. Not one Igbo city can boast up to 10 corporations with over 50m in revenue. Not one Igbo city can boast three 10 storey buildings or iconic architecture. This is what happens when you don't have scale and rely on emigration as a strategy.

Soludo understands the importance of cities as an organizational force. Primitivity has to be weeded out. Organized public transport not Keke, organized business districts not out of control street trading. Big businesses form in organized settings not chaos.

It is left for the government to do the needful by building world class cities and "forming" the huge corporation you are talking about? I am not sure which Igbo economist that worked as a world bank consultant in southeast Asia ( idika kalu or Soludo?) Anyway I am sure Soludo knows about Chaebol corporation like Daewoo and LG and Samsung ,companies that were essentially conceived and birthed by government..........What I am saying is that we business men are like sheep left to graze blindly in the bush...it is left for Soludo to point the way forward! He has the yam and he also has the knife!

The work that man has on his hands is daunting........he is still building gutters and roads , nobody remembers his automobile and pharmaceutical production hubs.................Soludo needs a lot of help to hurry things along but I am not sure he has done enuff to galvanise that much needed help in terms of investment and human capital! Why will Soludo allow Stella okoli to carry the new Emzor factory to otta Ogun state? Give it to Peter Obi sha for getting SAB miller to invest.........though he had some leg with the company prior to him becoming Governor!
Its not all bad but a lot of work needs to be done!

Unbiased1:
I repeat my previous stance. Forget about Akwa Ibom and focus on Igbo land. If Akwa Ibom wants to build a seaport, that's their business.
Johannesburg is the city with largest economy in Africa but it is landlocked. Igbo land currently does not have a seaport but it is possible to build one in Abia in the future, all we need is money to fund the project. Let our people start looking inwards. If one gaint company builds its headquarter in Onitsha, a 15 or 18-floor structure, other big businesses will start thinking about doing same. All it takes it one person to start. Look at what is happening in Nnewi. Its indigenes are always proud to invest at home. If landmark builds one resort in Oguta and turns Oguta to a major tourism hub, someone like Obi Jackson will move to turn Okija to tourism hub, other business men will also start doing similar things in their respective communities. You can look up "Sun city resort" near Johannesburg. Sun City generates far more money than Landmark in Lagos. Thousands of tourists visit South Africa every year just to enjoy themselves in Sun City. Guess what? Sun City does not have a coast line or beach yet it attracts people from all over the world. So you see, forget about Lagos, Akwa Ibom, Port Harcourt and Calabar, Ndigbo have invested in other parts of Nigeria enough, it's time to think home and home alone.

Now you are making sense!! I concur

YorubaNiBaba:
What do piigs have to say about this?

Kpomo lipped banshee from the waste side!

emkz:
While thanking President Bola Tinubu administration and FEC for these plans, it is also important to include the southeast in these projects.

No one must be left behind.

Southeast is used to being left behind! Na today !!! The marginalisation is brazen and opendential.................is it not funny that oil boom came and oil doom came,military regime came and civilian rule came........Yet the federal government of Nigeria never built a single airport in the southeast , never built a single all new rail line,never built a single gas pipeline to any city in the southeast and the only major bridge that has been built in the southeast since 1970 is the 2nd niger bridge, whicch the American government forced Buhari to build from recovered Abacha funds! hmmmm I want to be corrected in my above assertion! Every affliction has an expiry date!! that one na for sure!

Putindbutt:
Which ibo union existed in 1930?, ibos that were still roaming naked in 1959 were the ones building school in the ancient city of kano?, you think this forum is radio biafra.

Oga please identify your tribe , make we know where our panel beating hammer go begin to reshapen your empty skull!

Elsueno:
Stop the cultural appropriation, So u want to forcefully in cooperate a region that isn't interested in being part of ur delusions, Just because u need sea access & oil. U think those people in that region can see u for what U are .

No wonder kanu & d Finland boy ekpa they manipulate U like toddlers. If not for vested interest & corruption, U guys would have being history long ago

IJaws have their back to the see in finima,okrika and Opobo...where they have a mere foothold! meanwhile you want to face an Igbo nation that stretches from benue to edo from benue to ogoja and are all around you from Ahoada to Akwa ibom....and Igbos still outnumder you in Port Harcourt,Bonny and Opobo! The problem is that Ijaws do not know how small they are !!


In what national endeavour do Ijaws out shine Ndigbo sef

Putindbutt:
Opobo, Bonny,PH do not belong to ibo. The kings of Opobo and Bonny bear ijaw title called Amanayabo, ijaw will kill you guys if you try rubbish on their land. Your ancestor was a slave boy in Ijaw kingdom. PH does not belong to ibos, you ran away from PH during the war to your region, you came back and your landlords had taken over your properties.

Like I said, you guys have already been swallowed by Ndigbo...........Just stand at eleme junction and look 50km south,north,east and west...and tell me who and what you see? The truth is that Igbos are just peace loving people! you are surrounded by Igbo clans of all hues and you say Ijaw will do what again?

BentizilL0:
Another empty bragging..

empty bragging and Igbos withstood Nigeria in 30 months of a non ceasing shooting war with USA,UK and USSR on Nigeria's side...........I am not sure you know the true definition of courage and fearlessness............I do not blame you,you are just being the dumb black African you are!

Didn't ask for your opinion either.

I don drop my opinion do with it as it pleases you! inukwa

They are in Lagos. There is a video of The Oluwo of Iwo making a toast to them and gifting them Yoruba aso oke.

They no wan cause tribal wahala...that is why they are not revealing the full result of megan's lineage! there is a 1% difference between the DNA of Yorubas and Igbos,which is significant enuff to be registered on the result..........that gene difference is not so wide between the Igbos,Ibibios and Bamilekes of Cameroon...........this is the Biafran region...........you can at least 8 out of 10 times tell the difference between Ndigbo and ndiyorubain terms of phenotype ! Does Megan look like a Yoruba woman to you sir?

blabulu2000:
The last war BiaFRAUDn Ibo people fought , 3 million souls perish. And many of these causality are from the IBO side ...and you are bragging about war....I believe you are not in your right sense ...perhaps you need to take your drugs

tell me which great power that has not lost a war? mention even one! You need audacity and boldness to discover your inner strength! Unfortunately Nigerians have never really faced a common enemy that forced Yoruba,Igbo and Hausa to die defending Nigeria as an entity....that is why we are not a nation in the strictest sense of that word! millions of Igbos died fighting for that ideal of Biafra...unless Nigeria starts being fair to all of her children...the agitation will continue, I do not blame Yorubas for defending on Nigeria , after all One Nigeria has favored them more than anyone else!

HisaacPlus:
...and yet she made sure her feet didn't touch that region. Don't you think something is wrong?

what is she coming to see in the east.....agbado and aboki have ensured that nothing of significance in terms of infrastructure is ever built there! Na una loss ultimately! Black people and hatred~

edungene7:
I am certain you reason with your anus with an exchange rate of #1500 to a dollar in an import dependant economy how many days will your #30,000 naira stippend take you better gerrout of here

you are entitled to ear your views ...you are certainly not entitled to call me names..............You are uncouth and uncultured and from the rubbish you just penned,it is apparent even to the blind that you are functionally illiterate! so buzz off!

Why can't we bring back the Biblical spear of justice....you know...! Pin some bloody douche bag to the wal! No point wasting precious lead on this dregs of society! Nonsense.

cjrane:
Nothing we can do now. We have to go through this storm and naira will finally stabilize at some point.

What we are observing are the fruits of mindless borrowing and printing of money that was the hallmark of Buhari's regime. Unfortunately, these things take time to manifest and Tinubu is the unlucky guy in power when the effects of those economic crimes by Buhari are now manifesting.

what the government should do is to stabilize the dollar at near or around the 1500 mark....instead of wasting forex defending the purchase of pencils and private jets...not to talk of the pack of religious Nigerians travelling to waste our forex in Rome and Mecca! At 1500 to a dollar we can build from that gradually, at that point we can also attract a lot of forex inflows....but the government must get Nigeria back to work, flush out these foreign Fulani bandits and solve the agitation in the southeast once and for all!

Unbiased1:
Please don't quote me again. I don't have time to respond to illogical and emotional nitwits who see everything from a victim mentality point of view.

You must have some sado-masochists tendencies then !!......you must derive some perverted sex**l pleasure from watching fellow country men afflict unusual pain and sorrow on Ndigbo! who knows sef ? there are a lot of strange people on this nairaland forum anyways!

Unbiased1:
Nnaamehn is a fool bringing embarrassment to the Igbo people. Go back to his tweet and read the comments there and see how that fool's post is making people mock Igbo people. You can't be claiming people that don't want to be associated with you. Have some self respect and dignity and stop trying to teach other people one useless history they don't care about. Port Harcourt is no longer part of Igbo land, it is for the Ikwerre people. Ikwerre is an official ethnic group in Nigeria and they no longer want to be called Igbo people. Respect their choice and stop this show of shame. This is not a case of divide and rule, this is just common sense.

somebody should just do us a favour and stuff this man's mouth with a mop or something........gosh, you are just despicable!
