sambas: Onitsha (Anambra) – Dr Tim Anosike, the President of OnitshaChamber of Commerce, on Fridaywarned that the Niger Bridge might collapse sooner than envisaged by its designers and engineers.He made the observation when he spoke in Onitsha, Anambra.Anosike said that the bridge was being overburdened by the daily traffic gridlocks and had to carry tens of trucks with goods of thousands tonnage each day.He said that the commencement of the second Niger Bridge was overdue considering the increasein vehicular movement on the bridge in the past five years.“This chamber will never cease crying to the Federal Governmentuntil the construction of the second Niger Bridge is achieved.“Without this project, the entire life and economic activities of thepeople in this part of our countryare hanging on the balance as the existing bridge can collapse sooner than envisaged.“We have thought that the criticalnature of the project is not something to toy with.“But very sadly, it has become a strategic weapon for political campaign in the hands of our politicians since time immemorial,’’ he said.The Federal Government had awarded the construction of the bridge to Julius Berger, but work is yet to start. (NAN)We can't sit and watch this bridge collapse Anything to save it How can Amosun be building over five bridges and neglecting the Niger Bridge? How can Fashola build the Lekki-Ikoyi bridge among others he's built and not look in the direction of the Niger? Wickedness at its peak 15 Likes |

ngozievergreen: SE govts have low taxation culture.Low taxes should be an incentive for industries which the SE lacks More and more corporations are opening in Ogun, Oyo and Osun further driving the IGRs in those states Abeg one question before I forget How come Enugu and the whole of the SE have only one Shoprite outlet more than two years after it was opened and Ibadan already has two less than six months after one was opened? I also wanna know why KFC hasn't opened any outlet in the SE despite opening one, two, three in Ibadan Is it that S'Easterners don't eat chickens and can't shop or the poverty rate is so high that people can't afford to sustain these businesses? I believe the latter is true. Why also does Slot, owned by an Igbo man have branches all over Yorubaland, including Akure, Oshogbo, Ilorin, Sango Ota, Ife and 'poor' Ado-Ekiti with only one in the SE which is in Enugu? Of course he knows his kinsmen can't afford most of the phones he sells. 1 Like

6,000 HECTARES CASSAVA FARM UNDERWAY IN OGUN The Ogun State Government has taken yet another step to increase cassava production in the State as it is collaborating with the Federal Government to establish a 6,000-hectare semi-mechanised cassava farm at Ijebu Igbo in Ijebu North Local Government Area of the State. Commissioner of Agriculture, Mrs. Ronke Sokefun who disclosed this in an interview recalled that already, the State had embarked on a 10- hectare cassava multiplication project where high yielding stem had been planted and would soon be distributed to farmers across the State. Sokefun said while the State government is providing land and clearing equipment for the project, the Federal Government which had already constructed the road leading to the site would provide cassava stems to be planted there. The Commissioner also disclosed that as it was planned for the rice plantation in Eggua in Yewa North Local Government, a cassava processing plant would be located close to the plantation to help process harvested cassava into finished or semi-finished products, saying the gesture would enhance price and the living condition of farmers. Meanwhile, Sokefun said work at the ‘Green House Project’ to provide a controlled environment for the production of tomatoes, cucumber and green pepper in Kotopo and the Farmers Market in Asero had reached advanced stages. The two projects according to her, are to be commissioned by Governor Ibikunle Amosun next month. |

For some reason, I'm provided with armed escorts whenever I travel around the SE, SS and understandably the North I've not experienced any incidence but I've always been told to be cautious in those areas Isn't it also amazing that 99% of crimes in the SE are committed by people from the region while up to 60% of crimes in the SW are committed by people from the SE as well These are not made up facts |

Ogun State Dream Of New City Center,a Possibility- Malaysian Minister The dream of the current administration in Ogun State to transform it into an enviable status with the New Abeokuta city center and Government city, such that it could compete favourably with many other developed states of the world has revived a boost, as it was described as a possibility in all ramifications. This declaration was made by the Malaysian Minister Of International Trade and industry, YB Dato Sri Mustapha Mohammed, who says the project is laudable and will support the government’s course of ensuring that investors buy into the vision, noting that government must also be ready to work round the clock to achieve this goal. The Minister Of International Trade and industry says Ogun State’s Dream of New City Centre is a Possibility. The new Abeokuta City Centre and the new government area, a dream to modernize Ogun State which had long witnessed development, and bring drastic reversal from infrastructural decay. With these initiatives, there will be development of towns and cities into a cosmopolitan areas and would have direct impact of enhancing civilization from all corners through the exploration of the benefits inherent in such behaviour Mr Mohammed Hafiz is the lead urban designer, and project director of the City Centre project explains more on the correction made so far on the design and what they need to do to get to their desired height To be part of the design will be a proposed sixty storey skyscraper, expected to berth in the central city of Abeokuta, the Ogun State Capital, proposed to be the tallest in Africa, with adjoining skyscrapers that will redefine the landscape of the capital city UPSOUND:On their bid to fast track events and make the project come to reality, the governor led a team of professionals to meet with people who have genuine intentions and can help where they have a lot to benefit in a symbiotic relationship approach. One of the groups the Governor met was the minister of International trade and industry in Malaysia who says the project is encouraging but the state needs to do more awareness and be ready to list out benefits for would-be investors On his own, the Nigeria high commissioner to Malaysia, Ambassador Bello Sheu Ringim says he sees the will to develop Ogun State by Senator Ibikunle Amosun and he is always in support of greatness as Nigeria needs to take the bull by the horn Senator Ibikunle Amosun, the governor of Ogun State whose job at a gathering like this is to make some assertions that are new to investors which can attract and appeal to their minds about the need to be part of this great project and he did it with passion for the state After several meetings with so many groups who can change the fortune of the society to greatness and many who are willing to be part of the project, the governor and his team were taken round a Malaysian Exhibition centre of four thousand, five hundred square meters exclusively designed to showcase and promote various Malaysian products and services

Lagos, Ogun, Osun and Oyo are unarguably very viable Their IGRs are a function of increased economic activity in those states This must really get some people worried Osun's IGR is almost twice that of Enugu and higher than Anambra's. If Osun was in the SE, it will be the second largest economy and Oyo will be by far the biggest if it was in the zone with almost N6bn ahead The northern states of Kano and Kaduna are surprisingly impressive 1 Like |
