You are a tribal bigot and it's very obvious. Anybos can compare any city. I can compare Eket to Abuja if i want and it is based on a particular parameter. So, someone saying Enugu is better than Port-hacourt may mean that Enugu is more livable and not that Enugu s more dveeloped. I don't know if you indeed went to Enugu and i'm not saying Enugu is out of this world but it's a moderate city when compared to other cities it's size or age.
I thought mods were supposed to be objective? huh When your people spew crap about other state capitals in the North or West, you keep quiet. When someone makes an unflattering remark about one of your SE capitals like Enugu, you are quick to allege bigotry. May God deliver you! undecided

...Look at your highly biased and one sided description. And to think that you covered it under the guise of "an honest opinion",it's very hard not to call this a diss. Talk about fly overs, i know of the one close to NAF 305 flying school, i also know of the one along airport road, close to NNPC mega station.
And your cover was blown when you said that you didn't notice any much traffic in enugu, doesn't that show an already effective road network, so why the fuss about flyovers?? Flyovers are "purpose built" .
Did you also notice that spar, park n' shop, has an outlet in the newly built Enugu mall?(Not shop rite oo).
Does Ibadan have a spar outlet...??i don't think so.
You also dissed our airport Hahaha �,,, isn't that ironic when Ibadan airport generates less traffic in an entire year than Enugu does in a month?? �. In 2016 Ibadan airport serviced about 18,000 air travelers , but Enugu airport serviced close to 400,000 air travelers. What about cash transactions Enugu state always tops Oyo state in terms of volume of cash transactions, despite the massive, massive population difference. Which state is the dead one??
I agree that igbos are giving Enugu undeserved hype and everything but a guy that comes from Ibadan is in absolutely no position to diss Enugu (drops mic, and leaves angrily)
Hehehe.....so finally...someone confirms that Enugu has a functional airport. Anytime I say so on NL, several misguided IPOBians jump up in anger, ready to lynch me for opposing their propaganda that the entire SE region lacks a functional airport. cheesy Wonders shall never cease!

Nigeria is set to get another new oil refinery as a government push to end fuel imports attracts investors to the industry.

Petrolex Oil & Gas Ltd. plans to build a $3.6 billion plant with a capacity of 250,000 barrels a day, Chief Executive Officer Segun Adebutu said in an interview in Lagos. The closely held company is working on the “front-end engineering design” and will complete construction in 2021, he said.

Emeka Offor was awarded an oil license for an oil block OPL 291, through his firm Starcrest. He sold part of it to Addax Petroleum, and made a huge profit.

ABC Orjiakor owns Seplat which acquired an oil block (OPL 248/OML 56) from the federal govt. Even Ady Uba owns an oil block tagged OPL 286.

Anthony Onoh owns an oil block with license OML 54 which was awarded to his firm Eurafric Energy. Emerald Energy Resources which was awarded OML 141 is owned by JO Amaefule, AC Uzoigwe and FA Njoku in conjunction with others.

Ernest Obiejesi-Azudialu owns an oil field OML 42, which is being operated by his firm Neconde Energy. undecided

Does the time frame of knowing someone before wedding affect the marriage?, this is the question being asked by some online users after a couple tied the knot few months after knowing each other. This lovely couple have got themselves trending online after getting married two months after meeting each other.

According to a friend who congratulated the couple and shared pictures from their wedding ceremony, the new couple identified as Martin and Dinah met in February 2018 - held their introduction on Saturday, April 21st and did their church wedding the next day, Sunday.

Congratulations to the couple.

very sad indeed. when i was in the theatre ,having my baby through c section, they instructed the people in charge of the generator not to change over to NEPA untill they were given the go ahead.

my people, few mins after they started the cutting of my tummy, light went off boom! chai, the surgeon had to quickly shout to one of the theatre attendants to run to the gen house that they cannot take the risk of doing the surgery with nepa light.

they eventually put on the gen. Now imagine that the surgeon had cut a something and was trying to sew it back.

my mouth Jumped into my mouth.

anyways, i still lost the baby as a result of their carelessness. they were short of incubators o. and they was a general hospital
Ah madam, sorry o! shocked I sympathise with you on your loss. Honestly, until nurses, medical doctors, and their directors are sued from head to toe in this country, for huge sums of money, these medical personnel will continue playing ludo with people's lives.

I am quite sure you must have paid upfront for the cesarean section and other procedures, before being take to their theatre. Yet they still chose to be stingy with fuel and generator usage, at that late stage? Yet they could not provide an incubator for a premature baby? huh Why didn't they refer you to a hospital with incubators, instead of carrying out the C-section in their own premises, knowing fully well they did not have the right facilities to care for such a baby? shocked God will judge them, o! angry

Like you know the nature of what they discussed. Sowore has always reported issues as they relate to the country. Wetin bring undressed wife here. I am done with you. You are inferior! undecided
He is NOT inferior: he is telling you the truth. sad In another country, Sowore would be hauled into court to answer questions on why he leaked a conversation without the express permission of the other party who was involved, in that discussion. Ever heard of the Watergate scandal in America that signalled the death knell to Richard Nixon's presidential tenure in 1974? huhThe Watergate complex break in along with the leaked conversations, recorded tapes, wiretapping and phone calls carried out in Nixon’s office? Read the whole story, and you would discover how unprofessional it was of Sowore to record that conversation without notifying her, and leak it to the public without consent!

LordAdam16:
Yes, go call a Secretary of a US Department on a private number reserved for family, have the call hung up on you, then go release said conversation online. And see if you have a job by the next morning.

There was nothing responsible about that Sowore's encounter with her. She has her official line, official email address, she has an address; place a call or send a mail (physical or electronic) to set up a meet or interview like an ethical journalist. If she doesn't respond, you publish your article and cite the fact that she did not respond after multiple tries. Go read PremiumTimes investigative pieces.

By the way, Sowore is beneath her. There are places she enters that Sowore would not dream of entering even if he becomes the president. He is a waste of time, not deserving of any attention, always has been.

No problem. I'm an igboman. I don't make any apologies for that. This thing were somebody is discussing issues concerning the south east or the igbos, and next thing you know, some people jump in and start talking about abeokuta, lokoja or lafia is beyond me. Though I'm nigerian, my primary focus is what's happening in igbo cities.

We should all be frank enough to discuss how they are, without worrying what somebody from the south west or the north, is saying about them. Of course, I'm also worried about the largest commercial town in nigeria which is Lagos, and Abuja, it's capital. All well meaning igbo sons and daughters all over the world though, should find a way to contribute to the betterment of all these shitty looking igbo cities.

Am happy and glad about igbo enterprises, but unchecked run amock, try to make it by all means type of mindset, have reduced all their cities to complete an utter disorganization and mayhem, where everything under the sun has been allowed to take root. The keke people are all over the place driving through every nook and cranny, against and beside traffic. There are absolutely no traffic rules. Traffic usually happens,99% of the time because somebody have deviated by trying to force their way through.

My biggest ANGER is why the igbo intelligencia are SILENT about these ills. How is it, that they will drive through aba or portharcourt and not say a word about their observation. Why are other igbos like the ones on nairaland so much hyped about makoko or any other town in nigeria, when they should concentrate on what to do about all the shitty looking igbo cities, is beyond me.
