This is long overdue but how se people always find a way to drag the se on every topic is baffling... Are they that jobless?

Yeah blood

DankemzI:
This is welcomed development, the hen that has been laying the golden egg used to build and develop Lagos, Abuja and Nigeria is finally getting some crumbs of attention and development from the buhari led government.

TBH; why do SS love outsiders more than their selves
GEJ so loved the North that he gave them almajiri schools and tremendous infrastructures while neglecting the SS.
Amechi is repeating GEJ's mistakes as well, when will our people learn to greedily attract projects and development to our region without looking back?
Lagos-Calabar rail must be completed if not, we'll not forgive Ameachi come 2023 & beyond

You've said it all bro

The pandemic really wrote Nigeria off to the world of how poorly the health sector has been operating. Why is it that any sum approved by the FG for a project conversely sounds like another loot hit?

FG Unveils N21bn Medical Facility for South-south
editorJuly 19, 2020 9:00 Am


The federal government has unveiled the plan to build N21 billion medical infrastructure in the South-south geo-political zone as an intervention to promote public healthcare in the zone.


The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr Boss Mustapha disclosed the plan at the ground-breaking ceremony of the Oil and Gas Industry COVID-19 Medical Infrastructure for South-south geo-political zone in Akwa Ibom State.

The medical infrastructure will involve the construction of an Intensive Care Unit at Immanuel General Hospital, Eket Local Government Area, Akwa Ibom State.

The medical infrastructure was sponsored by the NNPC/MPN JV as part of the Oil and Gas industry intervention in the South-South, following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.


At the ground breaking ceremony yesterday, Mustapha explained that the intervention was in alignment with the ongoing federal government effort to curb the pandemic through the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19.

He noted that the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 covered three key thematic areas including provision of medical consumables, deployment of logistics and in-patient support system and delivery of medical infrastructure.

He said: “The total commitment to this initiative amounts to $58 million (N21 billion), out of which 53 percent of the total sum is earmarked for the construction of permanent medical infrastructure across the geopolitical zones.”


Mustapha who was represented by the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Mr Timipre Sylva, said the initiative was taken to support the national healthcare delivery facilities and strengthen the collective national resolve in combating COVID-19 pandemic and its dreadful impact.

According to him, in recognition of the ravaging impact of COVID -19 pandemic on the critical sectors of our national economy, the Nigeria Oil & Gas Industry under the leadership of the NNPC embarked on an industry wide collaborative intervention initiative to combat the pandemic and its attendant impact.


He noted that the participating companies would execute the project using their internal established processes in order to ensure transparency and accountability.

He said the commitments under the initiative were collected in kind and a clear and transparent governance framework that had been established for collecting and distributing the commitments across the country, in alignment with the processes and procedures of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19.

The SGF explained that the ground-breaking had put the nation’s oil and gas industry in a good stead to bequeath a sustainable impact and legacy on the healthcare delivery system in Akwa Ibom.


He noted that NNPC and its partners under the initiative would not rest on their oars in continuing to distribute consignments of medical consumables, equipment and logistics facilities across all the states in the country.

He said work had commenced on the construction of a standard permanent infectious disease hospital in Bayelsa State, Imo State and other locations across the nation’s geopolitical zones.

“All these are over and above the regular social investments through various corporate social responsibility initiatives by NNPC and the participating Companies,” he said.


He congratulated the Akwa Ibom Government and its people for benefiting from this intervention programmes and thanked the NNPC, Exxon Mobil, Nigeria LNG and other oil companies for their thoughtfulness, commitment and support.

Also speaking, Mr Paul McGrath, Managing Director, Mobil Producing Nigeria Unlimited lamented the devastating state of COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria and the entire world.

“In these trying times, the NNPC/MPN JV seeks to re-emphasise the high priority we place on health and safety as the core foundational values of our corporate culture and operations. We like to say we are in the business of managing risks, and there is no risk greater than the risk to health.


“So, we must all work collaboratively with our industry partners and other stakeholders, whom we are convinced share in this belief, in combating and, ultimately, defeating this pandemic. The task at hand calls for the sort of partnership we are witnessing here today, ” McGrath said.

Lalastclala, Seun & mynd44 carry good news go front page oo

ThatFairGuy:
Udom Emmanuel is trying. God bless you all the assiduously working Governors.

You too

rdokoye:
The government shouldn't bother trying to industrialize the state, instead they should focus on socialist policies, to build capacity. That way, development will be private sector led.

Never known any country, city or state to develop through public sector led initiatives. That's why it looks as though the governor isn't do as much as he should, when in reality he is. Akwa Ibom and every other state in Nigeria doesn't make enough money to develop its state using public funds alone. It needs the private sector to lead. And the only way it can do that, is by creating a private sector.

90% of all the development projects in Anambra for example, are private sector projects.

Some of you just wakeup from sleep and start taking nonsense without asking questions...please all Akwa Ibom Industrialization are PPP(Public-Private Partnership) and stop lying nonsense too...
All communist countries are government driven economy ok...
Nigeria is not a capitalist country but mixed factor (PPP) so go back to school and stop lying nonsense on the online space ok.
In river and delta state most if the industries there are federal government not private ok....When you here joint venture what do you think that means? Is PPP so leave stop taking without doing research ok...

I do don't know about anambra but am sure the igbo business mentality is only leveled mostly on medium and small scale business ok...
So do your own research properly..
Do you know NNPC is government?
Do you know shel, ExxonMobil, LNG etc are all PPP?
So stop lying ok....
