You are actually the one that sounded dumb and stupiddd. If not how would yiu even make such dumb comment that a rural nsukka is more strategically located than Onitsha. It can only be an illiterate that would ever reason like this. He even went further to state the FG chose nsukka, how many Nigerians knew nsukka before 1960s if not for Zik that chose it for the school.

You continue to sound incoherent, you make me want to believe you're high on cheap drug.

0bjpmb:
Please go and study your geography since you are too dumb to have this discussion.

As for UNN being federal project, without Zik there wouldn’t have been anything called UNN today. If you know how Nigeria is configured you would be sincere enough to know that Zik was the singular reason that school came there in the first place because of his position as the president and firstly Governor General of Nigeria.

Lemme go back to geography. Onitsha is the most strategically located city in Igbo land. The city before the coming of Asaba and Anambra international airports had access through land and sea, there is no other Nigerian city with such access except Lagos and Port harcourt.

Due to the strategic location of Onitsha, it played a major role during the colonial era, that was why the first Igbo bible literature was first written in Onitsha dialect because the city was the first place the Europeans first berthed when they arrived in the eastern region.

Onitsha is the only Igbo city that links all the regions in Nigeria. It links SW, north and Niger Delta.

Nsukka was considered by Zik because, firstly Zik was a detribalized Nigerian that saw everywhere in Nigeria and Igboland in particular as his constituency, not because any federal government knows anywhere called Nsukka prior to Zik bringing the school there. Without Zik backing there wouldn’t be anything called UNN today. For you to get anything in Nigeria it depends on who you know , and that was exactly what played out when Zik took that initiative .

Stop arguing nonsense

You sound really dumb and stupid at the same time.

How do you manage to survive with this type of reasoning , your submission is not in line with what is being discussed.

I will not be replying you anymore, do have a wonderful night.

christejames:
Another poor knowledge of geography from you 😏...


Do you even know that Onitsha can easily and quickly be accessed through Uzo-Uwani faster than through Enugu?



And again Onitsha is not in the South as you alluded but Eastern axis of Southeast.

Do you even understand the premise of this discussion. Stay in line, arrange your thoughts so I can understand what you're talking about...

Afam4eva:
How does Nsukka have accessibility to other Nigerian population compared to other places?

Kogi state borders Enugu state from Enugu North senatorial zone which also serves as Nsukka's location. From Kogi state alone you can access the South South through Edo State, you can access the South West through Ekiti and Ondo state, you can access the North through Nassarawa, Abuja, Niger, Kwara and Benue and can also access the South East through Enugu. All this states has a boundary with Kogi state and Kogi state is not far from Nsukka where the University is situated.

How’s timid nsukka that hasn’t seen civilization even after 50yrs of having UNN more accessible than Onitsha where the missionaries first established western education and missionaries(Catholic and Anglican) in the entire eastern Nigeria, a city that was mostly occupied and used by European businessmen and women that were importing and exporting during colonial era , that was even long before Nigeria had independence. Zik was a detribalised Nigerian, that’s why he did what he did. Zik was the only nationalist that was detribalized among all the founding fathers. [b]There’s no Igbo city more strategically located than Onitsha, because it’s the link between eastern Nigeria to western, southern and northern Nigeria [/b]both by land and sea . The truth is that Zik wasn’t a tribalist like most Nigerian politicians today .

First of all UNN is not an Igbo project, its a Nigeria project.

Now lets look at the Nigerian map, Onitsha as a city has no direct connection with the Southwest, It has no direct connection with Northern Nigeria and most importantly it does not have a close state that brings all the region together in one.

Now this is why I think Nsukka was considered the best location, Zik never want the university to leave the Eastern region and at the same time wants it to be accessible to all Nigerians.

Kogi state borders Enugu state from Enugu North senatorial zone which also serves as Nsukka's location. From Kogi state alone you can access the South South through Edo State, you can access the South West through Ekiti and Ondo state, you can access the North through Nassarawa, Abuja, Niger, Kwara and Benue and you can access the South East through Enugu. All this states has a boundary with Kogi state and Kogi state is not far from Nsukka where the University is situated.

Afam4eva:
Nsukka is a good location but there's nothing special about the location for a university. It could have been cited anywhere.

Where do you think would have been a better location in the Sou East when you put accessibility of other Nigerian population in consideration.

christejames:
Stop spewing rubbish if you know nothing about something... It's obvious you were not a medical student.


UNN medical students have some students posted for the community service at UNTH Obukpa during their final years.

I have a friend who did hers in Obukpa. If you know nothing about something just keep quiet than to display your ignorance to the world.

You're really really funny

Honestly I don't really want to Educate you, but your reply is so daft and daring at the same time that I had to just reply you for the sake of humanity.

There is a difference between POSTING and INTERNSHIP . No UNEC student from the college of medicine and the college of health Science go to Obukpa for posting. No student, I repeat No Student!!! Take that to the bank..

Now Internship, people that goes for internships are no longer students, they have graduated and are free to choose any medical medical center be it Obukpa or the one in Sokoto or Ibadan. Any place in Nigeria.

Your female friend, is either doing her Internship in Obukpa which no longer makes her a student or she is entirely not a student of UNN as she claim. Just take it from me, NO UNEC STUDENT GOES TO NSUKKA FOR POSTING..... Do your findings, it's not hard. Ask questions!!

Afam4eva:
Or maybe it's as simple as because his mother was from nsukka,

Yes Maybe, anything could be the reason. But as it's stands I'm yet to see suitable location for the project in the South East.

XerXers:
Myopic politics decided not population. Zik should have cited UNN in Onitsha then, if it's a matter of population

When Zik was citing UNN, he put into consideration that UNN was the first indigenous University in Nigeria and needed to be accessible by all Nigerians. that was why Nsukka was used. Nsukka is more accessible to Nigerians when compared to Onitsha. If the University must be situated in the South East, then Nsukka is the only suitable location. Onitsha is down south, Aba is down south, Nsukka is the only location that allows the project to remain in the South East and also accessible to Nigerians.

There is a reason it is called University of Nigeria and not University of Eastern Nigeria.

XerXers:
The original UNTH at Obukpa Nsukka still receive UNEC students. UNEC was the pholishness of myopic people in Enugu state. Imagine converting Kaduna polytechnic to ABU Kaduna campus. Nonsense

Which UNEC students does Obukpa Nsukka usually receive? Please enlightened me.

Because I for a fact (1000000%) knows that, no UNEC students passes Opi road again after crossing Over from Nsukka campus after their 100level.

I was in this system before graduating, so when I speak, I speak fact. Most Health Science and Medical science students (98%) don't even knows that there is a place called Obukpa Nsukka.

So Sir, I want to know the batch of UNEC students that still visit Obukpa Nsukka all the way from Enugu.

XerXers:
UNEC was a big mistake. The reason Enugu lost it's federal poly

Your Opinion again, and can't be absorbed as a general fact.

XerXers:
All are Chimaroke projects. Sullivan fvcked up by abandoning them

It's doesn't matter whose project it was, when Mbah completes it after it was abandoned for 16 years, he takes the credit...

XerXers:
Mbah looks promising but he is yet to deliver anything

This is entirely your Opinion, and it's can't be absorbed as a general fact.

Kobojunkie:
Do you even realize the absurdity of the claim you made regarding electricity at all?

Oga goodnight

Kobojunkie:
You visited the school and you confirmed everything on that list was installed at that one school?

2. In a country that generates about 5000MW of electricity for over 200,000,000 people, — the entire Heathrow Airport which is by far smaller than Lagos state uses that amount of electricity 24/7— and you want us to believe that everyone in Enugu state gets at least 23 hours of electricity every day? Na juju?

I'm not here to argue with you, I have told you what I saw, you don't believe visit your self...

If you have anyone staying in Enugu, ask them about electricity supply, as I'm talking to you now for the past 5 days they have not taken of our light...

Kobojunkie:
I have seen the video that you posted and said was completed in a place called Owo.

Here is a question for you. Given that the state is spending Naira 400 million for each school, do you reasonably think it would make sense for me to judge the success or failure of the entire project on just the one example which I have only seen some snapshots of?

Since you can't make a judgement from the video I sent to you. You can visit the school and see for your self. I don try for you goodnight.

Kobojunkie:
I have seen the video and you said it is in Owo, right?

Smart School in Owo..

International conference center, in Enugu main town

Kobojunkie:
I have seen the video and you said it is in Owo, right?

Ask around, Mbah is working!!

Kobojunkie:
Given we are on the subject of Nigeria, expect and accept the cho cho cho. I have been on Nairaland since about 2007, long enough to know that people should question and discuss everything if they really want to see lasting change come to be.

Are students already using the Owo facility as we speak? Has anyone confirmed that even that school has all that was promised by the state Governor in every school?
This na people money dem dey spend for all of these things and it is on the people to ensure that their money is in fact spent for what it was allotted for.

Guy I have visited the school, I sent you a video watch it and see for your self. Videos don't lie...

I have got no time to be pushing propaganda. If you work I give you accolades and you don't, reverse is the case.

And least I forget, we now enjoy 23hours power supply every day in Enugu. Ask anyone staying in Enugu. For the past two months now, it's uninterrupted....

Kobojunkie:

Have you seen the smart school? Have you seen Evidence?

Kobojunkie:
The State site does not indicate a location for any of the projects. I am currently still searching to find pictures of actual structures where they are.

I sent you a video of the progress of the international conference center, why are you not saying anything about that?

I have also sent you a video of one of the completed smart school, what day you?

Kobojunkie:
I was going to ask the address of at least one of the schools but I found that none of the schools are slated to go into operation until 2025. Any idea of the location of any of these schools so I can maybe google see using Google Maps for myself? Same with any of the "advanced healthcare centers" please.

This is a link to watch the Smart school that was commissioned in Owo, others are still on going.

Work are still on going for the health center, anytime I'm opportuned to village one of this villages I will take pictures.. no be by Cho Cho cho

Kobojunkie:
Where are the smart schools and advanced healthcare centers built by the governor make we investigate and know of what is going on too?

Refer back to my quote I think I have replied you..

Faber:
Do you stay in Aba? Noise maker... Your governor is a rable rouser... No single project completed. Road to my village from Iwollo Oghe where Enugu state polytechnic is located, is nothing to write home about. Na Sullivan did something tangible in Enugu. The rest na Ndi mgbu Ndi mgbu

What is my business with what is going on in Aba and Abia state. I stay in Enugu and can only speak on the things I have seen with my eyes...

Did you say no single road completed ?? You must be seriously joking. You don't stay in Enugu but you seems to claim you know what going on. He has completed more than 71 roads..

Kobojunkie:
Can you please include information about these "smart schools", "advance health centers", and "international conference centers"? It would be right to investigate it all to understand what is real from what is the usual propaganda and lies that are typical of Nigeria.

https://enugustate.gov.ng/pf/enugu-smart-school-project/

this is for the smart school. The last time I went to village. That of my village is actively on going.

https://petermbah.net/2023/11/24/enugu-govt-commences-building-of-new-260-primary-healthcare-centres/

This project for the health center is also on going..

Get busy with your life, time wait for no one.. if you like continue to dey jump from thread to thread.

vikstandon:
Now, let's talk about the Governor's track record. Can you point out a single project that he's fully completed?Peter Mba has a habit of merely scratching the surface on projects. There’s not one that he’s truly seen through to completion. Take the Smart School initiative, for example, aside from the model he completed in Owo, his hometown, where else has he finished anything? And what about the health centers in Enugu? Where are they? If you're looking for an example of a lazy individual, it's someone who juggles numerous tasks without giving any of them the attention they need to be done properly.

If you truly want to identify a fool, just observe how they resort to insults when trying to defend themselves or their paymasters.

All those projects you mentioned are actively on going,he has spent one year in office, not like it abandoned!! I'm sure you're not in Enugu. He has completed 71 urban road projects, go and verify.

Faber:
Go to Abia State and see real workings of a serious governor... Village champion

Do you stay in Enugu? Answer my question!! No be by Cho Cho cho

Typing:
Yes Enugu State Government always share Wheel barrows to Igbo Youths on HIRED PURCHASE.

Okay we have heard you. Now run a long

vikstandon:
Roundabout Governor!

This man's construction na only roundabout.

180days water don turn super story.

You clearly do not stay in Enugu if not you would know that water is now available to at least 60% of the estimated location. Roundabout is the least of his project. You forgot smart schools? You forgot advance health centers in every ward, you forgot international conference center? You forgot the Model park being constructed ? You forgot all the roads being constructed? Are you Ignorant or just plain stupid?

Faber:
This is man is yet to show workings...

only making noise on the social media

Do you even stay in Enugu? Na wa oo... So far he is the best in Nigeria.

Helpfromabove1:
The headline is misleading
