verygudbadguy:You can either be good or bad. |
Just look at the youth around your area. What do you see? People who celebrate poor performance. All they need is their daily dosage of booze and highness. Let's start from our hood. The JJ crew land and everybody hails. Honour! Honour!! What is honourable about them? You were there at the polling booth during last elections in 2015 if memory serves me right. It was an avenue to wind down, flex and booze with lots of pepper soup going around. The youth you are calling upon now sold their rights to the highest bidder that day. Some said they may not benefit beyond the plate of soup and the bottles of beer from the ruling class but 'make dem chop this one first'. If you stand up in Onike/Fola Agoro today to motivate the youth as you have highlighted, how much followership do you think you will get? On the other hand, arrange some bottles of Hennessey, order some barbecue from Awele and see how fast the crowd will gather. Look at your circle of friends, what is of priority to them? Is it not cars, luxury lifestyle and designer wears? If you were to engage your senator or representative in a discussion, what direction will you focus on more? Mandela and Winnie believed in the cause they stood for, suffered for it and bled for it. In the end they came out victorious. How many Onike youth can stand and hold their ground to such a cause and not compromise in order to save their neck or feed their stomach. Very few. I hope to engage you more as time goes on. It's gonna be a jolly ride. |
centoke30:The business model is not sustainable. Sanctions backlash.. With its ripple effect. |
seniorkachion:You don't need any birds eye view mumu. With the GPS coordinates, you will get satellite view with clear resolution. Stop bringing your ignorance to the world. What is the significance if birds eye view when you have access to satellite view in 3D self. Mtchewwww. Go and better the lives of your people. Your ignorance reeks. |
goaldynboy:Sir, you got my point. I'm not here to compare cities. Awka as a whole is small enough for the development to go round. Those places these guys call old Awka are the real people of Awka. If anybody says he's from Awka, he will not say I'm from Udoka Estate or I'm from Ngozika Estate or I'm from Abakaliki street. No! He will mention any of the 33 villages that make up Awka. All I clamour for is a little infrastructural investment to better the lives of these people. Good drainages, good roads and the people will be better off. I appreciate your sincerity. |
[quote author= post=55689218]It shows you know little about Awka, if you are honest to yourself you will know those areas you mentioned are old Awka, if you don't know ask people around you, the problem they are having is bad road, I'm 100% sure you can't see mud houses there unlike Abeokuta that's 85% mud houses and brown roof, have you been to Ngozika, Udoka, Awka GRA, Esther Obiakor, Abakiliki Street, Okpunor three arm zone Agu Awka etc These are new Awka, Anambra is not Ogun, Anambra is second urbanized state after Lagos this is fact which you know, 60% urbanized, Onitsha, Nkpor, Obosi, Nkwere, Nnewi, Ogidi, Ogbunike, Enugu ukwu, Abagana, Ekwulobia, Amauobia, Oko, Agulari etc, the government has many areas to cover, the state is one of fastest developing state in Nigeria, imagine the little allocation coming from federal government, FG abounded that express road it was Anambra state government under Obiano that reconstructed, expanded and erected the flyovers, which FG yet to pay, if you really know how Awka was looking because of that road, I don't think you will have guts to be writing rubbish, had it been FG performed their obligation we would have channeled the fund else where[/quote]Who are the people of Awka?If you ask anybody to mention where they come from in Awka, they can never mention Ngozika Estate, Udoka Estate, GRA, Abakaliki street. They will mention names like Umudioka, Umuelechi, Nkwelle, Ichide, Amenyi, Umuogbunu, Amikwo yet these places are not enjoying any government patronage. Is anybody an indigene of Udoka Estate? Stop using the phrase OLD AWKA. Awka is Awka. |
seniorkachion:Just use google maps to find the coordinates I posted for you to be cured of your mumurity |
ruggedized1:Mention the highbrow areas. Abi them no get name. What gullibility. You consider the largest markets in Awka as not being in the core? What can you buy in Awka without getting to eke Awka? How can you say the largest market in Awka is in the old part when the people on your so called high brow cannot buy their items without getting there. I repeat. You are not from Awka. You are a bastard. Omo ale jati jati ni e |
[quote author= post=55679430]Pictures you are posting are not bad just bad road which is obtainable in all Nigeria cities, can you show me Awka skyline ![]() This is Abeokuta skyline[/quote]Unfortunately I don't have time for that. At the onset, my simple point is that Awka, anambra state capital is too small for development and government presence not to go round. Show me anything new in Awka that isn't situated along the express so that passersby can see and start lauding the govt when people on the inside are wallowing in sorrow and bitterness. Just 1% of the cost of your so much celebrated bridges is more than enough to repair the roads I have shown you so far. In simple terms, let your people benefit from your government. Of what use is a bridge that you construct with billions and cannot carry trucks and trailers. Peoples homes are inaccessible due to erosion and you are asking for skyline. Iranu, abasha. I thought u were smarter than that. As for me, soldier go, soldier come, barracks remain. You guys are real suffer heads. |
ruggedized1:Is Eke Awka market on the outskirt? Is Nkwo Amenyi on the outskirt? Is Dike park on the outskirt? Is St Faith on the outskirt? Is Amikwo on the outskirts? Is works road on the outskirt? You are not from Awka. You are just a bloody settler in Awka. You are a bastard. Omo ale jati jati. |
ruggedized1:Umuogbu is not any outskirt of Awka. It is one of the villages that are the foundation of Awka. You are only proving your bastard status by saying Umuogbu is on the outskirt.
|
ruggedized1:Open your eyes and see the signpost indicating 27 umueri road Umuogbu Awka with today's paper and your dead road in the background
|
ruggedized1:When asked me for pix, I said I've posted before and will gladly do so again. I wonder why you people celebrate so much mediocrity. Awka is too small for your people not to benefit from government spending on infrastructure. That's a copy of today's paper with a snapshot at ezinwa square, Umuogbu as I drive on to the next place to take some shots.

ruggedized1:And I took another shot again TODAY 18/04/2017
|
ruggedized1:This street is filled with household waste just to prevent erosion

[quote author= post=55676824]This is Langbasa Ajah, Lagos 18th April, 2017[/quote]Still on okekeashi street Umuogbu. Note the written inscription on the fence

[quote author= post=55677890]Compare the pictures you just posted to Abeokuta[/quote]This is okeke ashi street, Umuogbu

[quote author= post=55677601]So you are from Ogun very backward state, headquarter of ritual activities in Nigeria, I guess you've seen how your kinsmen and women are hawking herbal medicines and Agbo in our streets I hope you are not one of those hawking herbal medicines for you to know all the villages you just mentioned [/quote]With due respect, I'm not from Ogun state.My points here are not for comparison if you have observed. My point is that within a week, I traverse the whole of Awka and the level of underdevelopment in these parts I'm showing you the pictures is too much. When your government comes out to showcase anything, its usually along Enugu - Onitsha expressway. What have the people in these parts of Awka done to be so neglected. Awka is too small for government largese not to reach these people. They have to use scrapped tar to salvage their roads. If you are close to this administration, fight for these people.
|
ruggedized1:Yes I mean Umueri in Awka metropolis. Umeri I purely typographic error. |
ruggedized1:Erosion ravaged roads i n Awka, your state capital and you are here blowing hot air when all the govt needs to do is to take as little as 1% of the billions spent on whitewashing the express way to alleviate the suffering of these people. Because you feel the erosion doesn't affect you, you don't give a damn about the masses in these places. , this is Umuoruka street in Umuogbu village, Awka with latitude 7.07357 and longitude 6.20218. Next time you are in Awka, try to visit the place
|
ruggedized1:It is obvious u don't know anywhere in Awka. Umeri is beside Umuogbu through which you can link Ezi Awka. The pictures are geo tagged so you can actually use Picasa to get the GPS coordinates. U be mumu o. |

ruggedized1:Yes. I can see youve posted a picture taken inside udika estate. So what? |

ruggedized1:If you are in Awka, why don't u ask of directions to saint faith road. Ask any okada to take you to ichie umuogbu's house. You can confirm. If you can't do that, then you are the bastard that you have always been |
[quote author= post=55676824]This is Langbasa Ajah, Lagos 18th April, 2017[/quote]This is the road beside ichie Umuogbu house

ruggedized1:Aren't u being educated on what a village is? U need more schooling for u to think that an investment along the express is a blessing to your village in the hinterland |
ruggedized1:Unfortunately, I can only shake my head for u. You wallow in ignorance of a high magnitude. |
ruggedized1:If only u knew my state |
These are new Awka, Anambra is not Ogun, Anambra is second urbanized state after Lagos this is fact which you know, 60% urbanized, Onitsha, Nkpor, Obosi, Nkwere, Nnewi, Ogidi, Ogbunike, Enugu ukwu, Abagana, Ekwulobia, Amauobia, Oko, Agulari etc, the government has many areas to cover, the state is one of fastest developing state in Nigeria, imagine the little allocation coming from federal government, FG abounded that express road it was Anambra state government under Obiano that reconstructed, expanded and erected the flyovers, which FG yet to pay, if you really know how Awka was looking because of that road, I don't think you will have guts to be writing rubbish, had it been FG performed their obligation we would have channeled the fund else where[/quote]Who are the people of Awka?
