And yet these same people are right here on Nairaland defending worse thieves that stole billion of Naira. I will be happier watching the treasury looters mobbed than these petty thieves.

Guy this one your tummy is already bulging at this stage I fear for you after the wedding.

I support that of branded vehicles but that of push carte is ridiculous even amidst recession.

This might sound ridiculous but true.

[size=13pt]You are a bloody liar.
USA,
Germany
France
etc became great as democracies.

Ibrahim Babangida and Olusegun Obasanjo were the ONLY military regimes that cared to develop Nigeria.

The others just looted Nigeria mindlessly.[/size]

You are wrong OreMI22. Read the history of France, Germany and USA.

Owelle! Detribalised Igbo leader and pacesetter. May your work for the peaceful coexistence of all Nigerians be fruitful.

Because military rule is cheap and devoid of due process. No senate, no reps, no councilors, no PAs and all the leakages that have to do with democracy. Our democracy is heading to 18 years and we are yet to achieve 1/3rd of the infrastructures put in place by the military despite enjoying 7 years of mega oil boom between 2006 and 2014.

DaPuncline:
ZiK was there for 6 years.

President (Ceremonial) - 1960 - 1963.

Governor-General - 1963 - 1966.

Zik never had executive powers. The Oyibos wanted North in power and just pacified Zik with the ceremonial head.

Abdulsalami is Nupe. An Hausa will not rule Nigeria as they joined Fulani to form a new Hausa/Fulani merger ethnicity in order to be majority. Of course the price they have to pay is Fulani taking their turn.

mrvitalis:
This is not funny we need to ask some certain questions

1) what's the source of found for this projects

, 2) whats the unit cost for each house

I need answers

Whatever the source the important thing is giving back to society.

Anything more than 27k is an economic error. 56k will just ground Nigeria in 2 months.

Wife of Imo State Governor, Nneoma
Nkechi Okorocha has handed over three
more two-bed room bungalows to
indigent widows in continuation of such
gestures under her pet project, “SHE
NEEDS A ROOF PROGRAMME (SNARP)”.
Handing over the buildings on Tuesday
November 1, 2016 to the three
beneficiaries, Mrs. Roseline Igwe from
Ohaji/Egbema LGA, Mrs Rosemary Ebere
from Owerri Municipal and the first son
of Mrs Grace Iheanacho from Owerri-
West who died before the handover
ceremony, Nneoma Okorocha said she
would continue to feel highly honoured
by God for using her to be putting smiles
on the faces of those whose situations
have made them to forget how to smile
again.


Nneoma Okorocha has built more than
two hundred of such houses for widows
and other indigent women across the
twenty seven Local Governments in the
State, stating that one of the best ways to
honour God is by putting smiles on the
faces of people especially the less
privileged.

Upritman:
Google it and confirm it from at least any other source that will suit your defence for evil.

He is not resident in Rivers State and you know in Nigeria people can write anything for politics. Here is a very credible link from Tide Newspaper owned by Rivers State.

http://www.thetidenewsonline.com/2016/09/09/nut-orders-teachers-back-to-school-demands-payment-of-salary-arrears/

The Rivers State Wing Executive Council (SWEC) of the
Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT), has called on the
State Government to expedite action in the payment of
salaries owed its members.
Rising from a meeting yesterday, the SWEC, in a
communiqué, stated that it will call on its members to
resume work from the 14th of September.
However, the NUT said that if the State Government does
not pay what it called “the backlog of salaries” owed its
members, it will recall them from the classrooms.
“After due considerations, the trust the union has on the
Government of Rivers State, and for the interest of our
younger generation, the union hereby urges teachers to
resume schools by 14th September, 2016”, the
communiqué said.
It appealed that the government should as much as
possible clear the backlog of salaries from February to
August, 2016 owed teachers of Rivers State.
“That if the backlog of salaries owed to teachers is not
cleared from today, Thursday, 8th of September, to the
8th of October 2016, the union will have no other option
than to call the teachers out of the classrooms”, the
communiqué stated.
The communiqué expressed worry that promotions of the
teachers have not been implemented, adding that
“promotion interviews conducted are not released and
promotion interviews yet to be conducted”.
According to the communiqué, promotions interviews
carried out by the Universal Basic Education (SUBE)
Board in 2010, 1011 and 2012 have not been
implemented.
The NUT further noted that the Rivers State Senior
Secondary Schools Board (SSSB) promotion interviews
conducted for 2009 and 2010 have also not been
implemented.
It also listed the promotions not released by the SSSB to
include that of 2011, 2012, and 2013, while promotions
not conducted are 2013, 2014 and 2015 (SUBE), and 2014
(SSSB).
Earlier, the SWEC had commended the Rivers State
Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike and the relevant agencies
for their interventions on the pitiable plight of teachers in
the state.
Meanwhile, the Rivers State Commissioner for Education,
Professor Kaniye Ebeku, in a meeting with the executives
of NUT, assured that dialogue was ongoing concerning
the payment of their salaries.
He further stated that the Rivers State Government was
committed to the welfare of teachers in the state.
“The Governor Nyesom Wike-led administration is a
responsible government, and undoubtedly committed to
the welfare of its workers”, the Education boss stated.

omenka:
Questionable source, so I'll hold my fire..

It's more than 7 months as most last received their February salaries. It's actually 9 months while pensioners are owed less.

Qmerit:
Lols, you mean the rds went that bad in less than 2 yrs of PMB? Not just Delta the whole of S/S and S/E don't ve motorable Federal Rds. For me I see it from where it started b4 we got to where we re right now,

I have no pity for them. When one chooses evil over good he shouldn't expect good in his zone. Jonathanians where are you?

Jonathan must be very bitter in his heart upon hearing this news. Congrats Bayelsa and once again events have proven that its not about tribe but willingness to lead well.

ruggedised:
and what happens to our politicians who loot billions They protest on their behalf
Nigerian youths are foolish

The same people that nearly killed this man are the same people defending billion Naira thieves and ready to die for them.

mekuzi09:
You forgot that in a sane climate, such business men will be given some favorable consensus to keep them going. Our own na own. You don't kill the little you have in the name of political policies.

It's not government policy but there is no Dollar and I believe you should know. He can only access part of and not all of required foreign exchange simply because there isn't enough to go round. That's one of the sacrifices we must make in order to develop locally.

Stupid Nigerian mentality. Government should ban importation of anything Erisco into the country. He's looking for foreign exchange to operate a local industry and we all know Nigeria is experiencing foreign exchange scarcity as a result of low oil output and prices. Business environment in Nigeria is harsh and requires total patriotism to resist temptation of going to already developed countries like China.

Flexherbal:
Is it possible for a governor to dethrone a traditional ruler?

Of course it is.

Wike is right but he should do it in uthmost sincerity. Traditional rulers should never show open partisanship as they are the father of all.

Miranda11:
Not only PDP destroyed everything , APC were also part of the destruction after all 90% of the politicians who are now in APC were in PDP when the destruction was going on so so who is kidding who and besides some of the biggest destroyers are the top nuts in APC now.

Naija politics!!!!!!

PDP and APC are not same but the members are virtually same. APC came into existence in 2013 while PDP was founded in 1998.

ruffp:
I'm so glad people are beginning to wake up. You use money belonging to all to change the life of one, and some people are clapping?
Its a seemingly good deed, but very very wrong if you look at the big picture.
The function of govt is to ensure every citizen is catered for. Instead of sharing houses like candy to the lucky few who is a friend to 'powers that be', or a friend to the friend of 'powers that be', why not embark on schemes that ensure every citizen has an opportunity to own theirs.
This media circus must be discouraged by everyone!

You are wrong and commented out of ignorance. Over 200 houses for widows is not few coming as a pet project. No Government official has ever done that and we should commend her for such pet project.

By Chidi Nkwopara, Owerri


AFTER years of mourning the loss of their life partners and
toiling to make ends meet, many widows in Imo State
presently have reason to smile as they count their
blessings, thanks to the wife of the state Governor, Nneoma
Nkechi Okorocha. Identifying shelter as an essential need of
the widows, the Imo First Lady had since 2011 under the
auspices of her “She Needs a Roof Project, SNARP”, built,
furnished and handed over more than 172 units of two-
bedroom bungalows for indigent widows and orphans, who
do not have roofs over their heads.
Some other SNARP buildings for these vulnerable persons,
are still under construction in all the 27 local council areas
of Imo State.


Apart from SNARP, Nneoma Okorocha also embarked on
her “Nneoma Kitchen”, through which she reached out and
touched lives via feeding, clothing the poor and visiting
motherless babies and other charity homes across the
state. Vanguard Metro, VM, gathered that the programme is
designed to rekindle the spirit of being our brother’s keeper.
Optimal potentials

Champele:
What is this one saying?. what is chino? . Pls I stop commenting on nairaland because of people like you. You can check my profile. don't make me start taking pictures of bad roads in imo state.

My friend sharrap and don't get me annoyed or we start the dirty photo war again. I already have hundreds of bad road pictures from Anambra waiting for the madness to start. Nkita ara!

The militants might be right but the elders are wise enough to know that only peace can bring development. Had Jonathan been a good leader he would have used the peace and high oil revenue he enjoyed to improve the Niger Delta. So to avoid unnecessary war and possible collateral damage I still advice the militants to embrace peace and watch this government to judge their sincerity.
