Truly I must say this is commendable but I do feel other things need to be added like distribution channels, road network ,employments and also development of the state.

Please reread it again you will see that it was captured

tuskers:
God bless you, almost all coconut planted at the plantation are with yellowish or dead already, I strongly doubt if proper soil analysis was carried out before embarking on cultivation.
God help Akwa Ibom

Please visit those site and if your not in the state pls stop saying thing off your head ok

delvzy:
I do feel more of these should be worked out by any sensible state govt.

Identify what and what you can leave on besides revenue from crude oil.
Each state needs to discover that long lost resource that would be a thing of pride for them.

This is a kickoff we do also need a maintenance stricture for this.

That's why I commend this project

Bros, to be convinced, I went searching again. But, what I saw, in pictures, were a nursery farm, some five or six stands of coconut trees, an emir, some two tractors, a palm plantation behind and cleared space of less than an acre. What is wrong with the African brain? Was it not the plantations that should take of first? If you have wide plantations, people will make money even without a refinery. But, the zeal to siphon money meant that you built a White elephant refinery even before plantations. I am rather embarrassed by how we handle public resources; we always go for wastes and looting. Is this due to poor brain of Africans or the people in the corridors of power, drunkenness, poor morals or being drug addicts.

Reread the article again pls and stop making nuisance of yourself , the plantation picture came later when a doubter like you said he was not sure of plantation existence. You can't get a full coverage of 11000 acres of land in one pix . And finally if you read back the article in summary other state will also supply st Gabriel refinery with coconut too. Pls I hope this help ok

inyenejo:
I like the name St. Gabriel refinery, good !

Is a private investment (ppp)

Da owo get out. Go and find a job and stop this sycophancy!

You're funny bro, stop hating mbok

But there is a sum total point which in my assessment is poor. I praised ibom Air because i felt it was the only way that Uyo air route can be developed, a step to putting to use that wasting MRO. Secondly I know how many times one has been at the mercy of private airlines who just decide not to fly, not because there no passengers but because they are business people and they don't just share the visionby making sacrifices. Before the Uyo Airport,the Calabar airport was mostly patronized by akwa ibomites, not even cross riverians. The Uyo airport was a no brainer, but some people kicked against it but history is the judge (thank God it wasn't abandoned). Today you cant compare the passenger traffic at Uyo to calabar airport. We have to continue to hold government accountable at all times, its public money and not their personal money.

Nice points tho

SIONKPO1:
one man food is another man's poison
you praise ibom air but me I give it a knock
You don't expect any government to do things as you wishes it should be done

You're right bro

rollingrocks:
Please don't be a political praise singer, and it will be well with all of us . I commend when its necessary, go and check my post, I praised him for Ibom Air, I'm just pointing out areas he can improve on if he is sincere, we cannot all be governors but we can point out areas where things can improve. I have absolutely nothing personal against him or any other irresponsible leader.

You have nothing against him, but you keep calling him irresponsible

rollingrocks:
Primary schools built by Akpabio are still in good shape--- Another lie from the pit of hell, are you talking about the empty classroom buildings or well well equipped school?, please stop deceiving yourself

How has Nigeria benefited from scholarships -- A very sad one from you, Let me enlighten you, Citizens never come back because first of all those scholarships were designed for their family members and cronies to go enjoy abroad and never come back. Secondly what responsible leaders do is that if there is really a need for a foreign scholarship(mark my words, a need for foreign scholarships), as part of the terms of the scholarship, the govt signs MOUs with the foreign universities involved so that when those beneficiaries finish their original certificates are sent back to their sponsors who will decide on how to benefit from the knowledge gained, e.g. send them to teach in local universities, work in the ministries, for a period maybe 7 years,5 years, etc before their original certificates are given to them for them to work anywhere they like having given back to the system that they benefited from. Within a period of 20 years you don't need to send anybody abroad for anything because you must have built enough local capacity But since we have irresponsible leaders its an avenue for settlement.

Tourism can come later, Ibom is not a tourism rich state ---- I honestly wept for this statement of yours, It is either you are totally an ignorant fellow or you are outright mischievous. First of all, as we speak all our Historical tourist sites are being overtaken by forests and are collapsing, at the verge of being lost FOREVER, and you make such sacrilegious statement!!!!!!! The ones that are natural like the Ibeno beach is TOTALLY neglected. This is the reason I said Udom's commissioner's are a bunch of lazy heads who cannot identify the goldmines that are right under their feet!!!!!! Tell me the state you consider as being very tourism rich, Obudu, Kwa falls has been bubbling it was managed by responsible leaders (the british), guess what, when they left it crumbled, it was only Donald Duke (a responsible leader) that turned it back into a goldmine, but since he left irresponsible leaders who cannot see beyond their noses took over the place has now become derelict. I wept when I visited Kwa falls last year.


Irresponsible leaders everywhere, is it your president who has been in the saddle for 5 years yet could not provide himself a hospital where he can get medical help but was rather comfortable spending public funds jetting out at the slightest headache? He too will tell you govt is easy, right?

Now what have i done for my country, you can't imagine it but you know what, your irresponsible leaders have made a mess of it just the same way they have done to the efforts for millions of Nigerians, They are the ones destroying the lives of Nigerian citizens, left , right and center with inept governance.

When responsible leaders emerge we all know them, Dora Akunyili was one, Donald Duke another, to some extent, Babtunde Fashola, Obong Victor Attah, Peter Obi to mention a few.

I gree with you on ibeno beach, it's been neglected

rollingrocks:
God has already blessed Akwa Ibom but He will never bless irresponsible leaders. Continue your sychophantic job instead of telling them the TRUTH. God will bless leaders like Rwandan president,Nelson Mandela, the Dubai visionary, Le Kwan Yu etc and certainty not irresponsible Akpabio ,Udom and their cohorts who see governance as an opportunity to steal public funds, buy properties in countries where responsible leaders have built, become overnight philanthropists, send their children abroad while leaving the populace uneducated with slogans like free education, etc. How many of their kids are attending any school in Akwa Ibom, im not even talking about public schools ooo. Please shift.

Baba you wouldn't expect a state government to achieve all this under a country that is already backward. Do you know that state don't even control the electricity the generate to the national grid? Do you know a state can't just wakeup to build a seaport without several trees of approval from the federal government. Nigeria system can't make a willing state achieve dubai status ok

simeotexy:
say dat udom is creating job opportunities dat doesn't mean that akwa Ibom people are not working...na idle man dey clean cos u can't borst a state in Nigeria as clean as akwa Ibom nd 90% of investment in akwa Ibom is owned by akwa ibomites

You're right bro

SIONKPO1:
that's what people don't know,I currently resides in abj,omo na hard life ooooohhhhhh

Naso bro

SIONKPO1:
What is really paining you,Rome wasn't built in a day
You complain without proffering solutions
Oga,go and buy form and contest for elections please I will joyfully support you
Enu o se o
Ariwo ko ni music ooo

God bless you, tell am

SirBunky85:
pls remove Ogun and replace with bayelsa

Abia is sometime called the devils domain

simeotexy:
if u say akwa Ibom people are idle you re saying trash..very big one

Relax that is what udom is trying to alleviate

simeotexy:
is there any place in naija that there is job...abeg if u no get anything to say just keep quiet...m tired of this saying that there is no job in akwa Ibom like dere is job anywhere in Nigeria

My brother the just want devalue the state , most are not even from the state and most have not even been there before

YungLasaint:
How does it affect it?

Are you ok at all, how will you expect udom to build factories in all 31 local governments at the same time. You sure you well?

Bekool:
This is really massive and impressive, less talking and much action imo state would have been industrialized if that apc criminal called okorohausa have kept to his campaign words of industries industries.

I was also impressed when I saw it

SIONKPO1:
*Why will Udom build primary and secondary schools when the ones built by Akpabio are still in good shape
*How has Nigeria benefitted from the numerous scholarships it gives to its citizens yearly(nothing cause most of the beneficiaries never return back to Nigeria
*Human Empowerment,I think he should do more to what he is doing
*Tourism,can come later cause Nigeria generally now is not save and moreover ibom is not a rich tourist state
****How many lives have you impacted .
think of what you can do for your state,and not what your state can do for you

Lovely master piece from you

rollingrocks:
Hahaha, PDP, APC, thats all you know?thats the only way your brain is wired, right? Its a pity. What's the difference, tell me?Akpabio squandared, Udom is confused. Tell me ONE dualized road Udom has started and completed? All na cut and join. You mentioned human empowerment, please tell me how many scholarships has be awarded by govt., how many secondary and primary schools has he properly built, rehabilitated and equipped? with all the billions as revenue. Everything he does he must attach WORLD CLASS, INTERNATIONAL STANDARD, FIRST OF ITS KIND IN WEST AFRICA, AFRICA AND THE WORLD yet we all know the truth that most of those things are substandard even by Nigerian standards. There is no reason why akwa ibom is where it is now with all its endowments if not for inept leaders like Udom and sychophants like you who jump from one politician to another. Akwa Ibom should be rubbing shoulders with the likes of Dubai. All tourism sites in the state are DEAD, name one well maintained and functioning tourism site in the state if you can. Udom and his confused commisioners are a failure.PERIOD!!!!!!

You already sound stupid ..... try an do urs so we can also applaud you

na2016:
You will soon be tired...

Ooh wait is that what you do; fight good news hmmm
You don jam rock be that

SIONKPO1:
Jealousy and hate are the last class one attends before becoming a ********
You said Udom builds sub standards and audio projects?
please point one or any?
Let's play opposition with Love not with hate and Evil
I Bet you you are one of those pained APC akwa ibom zombie
UDOM is not perfect and I expect him to do more to what he has done but above all him try

Please educate him

rollingrocks:
You Sycophantic foooool, are the one that is certainty not OK by going about looking for abandoned and never to be completed projects by AKSG to use to deceive the unsuspecting public to believe that Udom is working. What a shame. Someone asked you, where is the plantation, you stupidly dived into insults. Udom is a substandard governor delivering sustandard uncompleted projects everywhere. The ONLY commendable thing he has done in my opinion is IBOM AIR. Others like this one na completed wash.

You sound bitter already....just run along stop hating

SIONKPO1:
You expects him to be throwing money the way akpabio did when he was in charge
my brother their time differs
*Akpabio concentrated on roads,buildings and others while udom specifically said he wants to concentraylte on human development and industrialization, we will get there

God bless you bro

SIONKPO1:
You talk any how my friend,Even if I show you the coconut plantations you will still doubt me
mind you am not politicians praise singers ooohhh
This one is real and its a PPP

Don't mind them bro

na2016:
You must be a FOOL if you can't give me facts to disprove my assertion. If you don't change, sycophancy will kill you!

You need brain cells bro

rollingrocks:
Udom has really NOT been impressive, PERIOD!!!!

I hope you're ok

na2016:
You are simply shameless. Abasi Ukan ooo

You're stupid honestly very bitter and stupid

Nwaonyishi69:
Guy, how long shall you people deceive yourselves? You showed the pictures of the refinery and I commented. Why not answer my questions with the pictures of some of the plantations? Telling where they are does not convince anybody about this project not being another white elephant project, simple. Am sure that in the next 5 years this will only be remembered for the debts it brought on the state.

Stay away from being a sycophant if you truly want to make it in life! I was expecting you to prove me wrong but you have resorted to name calling.

Prove you wrong on your own personal opinion ... aba relax na. No be your opinion again
