Curious345: Better. I am happy to see that the southwest governors no more rely on propaganda but are now willing to act .
During the food embargo placed on the southwest by the northerners after 3,000 hausa Fulani traders were murdered in ibadan during the END SARS SAGA, THE then GOVERNOR OF ONDO STATE CALLED FOR AN EMERGENCY MEETING.
In that meeting the southwest governors vowed that they will no more be FOOD slaves to the North,No more Entirely depending on the North for their food supply THEY BROUGHT OUT BEAUTIFUL PLANS OF HOW THEY'LL TURN THE ENTIRE SOUTHWEST TO A GIANT MECHANIZED FARMING LANDSCAPE. THEY ALSO SAID THE SOUTHWEST WILL NOW BECOME THE FOOD BASKET OF THE NATION AND EVEN EXPORT FOOD TO OTHER AFRICAN COUNTRIES.
But to this day the southwest produces less than 1% of what it eats, they are still food slaves to the North
Didn't S/S have other working sea port already,why build another one?
FreedomfromtheT: I don't know about others. I am concerned about the motive of the president. The Southsouth need deep seaports. The Southsouth already have uncompleted roads. Why the expensive Lagos Calabar Coastal highway? The more pertinent question is: does president Tinubu even intend to complete the project or just to play to the gallery and garner Southsouth votes in 2027?
Mrexcell: Still doesn't proves anything, here in delta state many igbo speaking communities that are close to edo state their traditional rulers uses bini traditional attires does it now means they were all conquered and colonized by the binis? Use ur head man and stop the assumptions.
Bobloco: Paul Ibe, the spokesperson of the 2023 Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has disclosed that the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, was instrumental in the exit of Peter Obi from the party.
Ibe said Atiku wanted the PDP to zone the 2023 presidential ticket to the Southeast but Wike worked against it.
Obi was the vice presidential candidate of the PDP in the 2019 presidential election but dumped the party for the Labour Party, LP, ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
He later became a force in the last general election, securing over six million votes.
Since the PDP and LP lost to the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the 2023 election, the leading opposition party has yet to resolve its internal crisis.
However, Ibe said Atiku was ready to zone the PDP presidential ticket to the Southeast.
In an interview on Seun Okinbaloye’s Mic On podcast, Ibe said Wike frustrated the move to zone PDP’s ticket to the Southeast.
He said: “Atiku did not force Peter Obi out of the party, Wike was instrumental in the exit of Obi because Wike had promoted the zoning of the presidency to the south.
“Atiku Abubakar had said that he was prepared to get himself off the ticket if the party zoned the ticket to the Southeast.
“Wike frustrated that effort because he believed that if it was zoned to the south, not the southeast, he would be in the best position to be able to get the ticket.”
Shattuck: I am not from the south east if that's your thought, I am from the south south, this is very easy for folks to understand but some of you criticize dissenting opinion for political and ethnic reasons rather than logic, Nigeria has been borrowing to keep afloat since tinubu came on board, spending over one billion dollars of borrowed funds on an highway in the very first year of your presidency in the midst of economic turmoil is not the way to go, I can't criticize it too hard because it is development nonetheless, but the way you guys turn it into ethnic and political battle does not even give room for constructive criticism of the govt this was the same card you played during the buhari's regime, do you know that 4billion dollars is the amount they would spend to construct one km of road, while according to data from the world bank the same one km of road should cost less than 250 million naira, even factoring inflation 4b per km is on the high side but we can't talk about this otherwise I would be accused of being igbo, ipob, obedient etc.
haba!!! Oga take it easy nah! $4 billion dollars on km!! That means the whole 700km will cost $2.8 trillion dollars
Ibrahimcoomasie: Since this administration started, Engineer David Umahi has hit the ground running. The man Umahi is likely going to be the best Minister of Work the country has ever had, especially if he keeps up with the pace.
Multiple road projects are ongoing all over the country, even the ones previously abandoned. The first thing he did was to clear the debt owing contractors.
Aside the economic development this highway will bring along the 700km corridor, the coastal highway would also help to protect the Nigeria coastal line along the southern part of the country. It's good to have an Engineer as Minister of Works. Round pegs in round holes.
We well meaning Nigerians appreciate and wish him goodluck.
OkoRemi2023: Igbo and their wahala, they're in to fight anyone that's not on their side
First is Lagos calabar road, the next is don't invest in Lagos all because a Yoruba man outclass the dullard they presented despite the intelligentsia in southeast
So we go elect this one husband too, a bigot can't be Nigeria first lady
what about remi? She said worst things in the past and today she's the first lady..
Your people were still going naked to the market place in Colonial times, so how where you dominant? Your region was poor, you had no semblance of organization like the other tribes.
Your people still practised cannibalism like brutes and some still do today. So what the heck are you going on about?
Again demographics of which Graduates? How many Secondary Schools were in the East?
Then when did Azikiwe cede which foolish Prime Minister to the North? You mean it was his and he dashed it out? Was his Party the dominant party?
Who dash am? 🤣
You are so deluded or outrightly silly!
So by your silly analogy, if the other parts were begging to leave Nigeria because of 'Igbo dominance,' why conduct a Coup and kill all their leaders but yours?
Did you get all these madness from Radio Biafra?
Utter nonsense!
The Fulanis and Yorubas were begging you? Who the fxck do you think you are?
richiemcgold: Ondo is not on the list. Are there no BDC in Ondo State? What about those abokis standing under Akure bridge and around the post office area? Are they not BDC too?
okoIYAyin: The proper training on maintenance and security should actually come first and not last. I don't think that should be so difficult to understand. For example, can you buy a car without knowing how to drive? No nah.
yes you can.they`re so many people who owns car but cant drive
