Awka Stadium will be ready to host football match on 28th Dec this year, I inspected the Stadium yesterday, the contractor told me from next week they will start working day and night, I most confess I love the quality of work they're doing, the drainage around the pitch was perfectly done and all covered, track is almost ready, they have marked to build more stands around the pitch which will continue next year and other facilities, it was captured in next year budget, but the pitch will be ready for football match this year. Another goodnews from Awka Stanel group Cinemas will be ready before yuletide season

From what you saw, what is the estimated capacity?

After going to the Dallas Zoo or Berlin Zoo, you'll weep for how African billionaires especially Nigeria waste their monies on hotels, night clubs, etc; why cant we have billionaires that will follow the footsteps of Andrew Carnegie and build standard Libraries, Parks and Zoos.

We see animals that are worth to behold and just kill it... Can a Nigerian billionaire just use that money and create a massive zoo employing Zoo keepers and Admin and create an environment where Nigerians can carry their families along to see unique animals.. It will generate a lot of money for them.. But No! Na to create hotels that breed sin and oloshoism

The state of some of our zoos will make you weep or rage. The animals are emaciated and kept as prisoners in a dirty unkempt environment. You know the money meant for the upkeep has been flittered away by corruption. Our collective mindset has to really change.

*THIS IS THE REASON WHY HAUSAS, YORUBAS, EDO AND THE NIGER DELTA MAN WILL NOT TRUST THE IBO MAN AT THE CENTER AND WHY THE HAUSAS MAY NOT WANT TO RELINQUISH POWER IN NIGERIA*

Any historians in the house to vet this:

Forgotten History Of Igbo Tribe And Northern Alliance.

Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of Nigeria;

Chief of Army Staff was from SE
Chief of Naval Staff was from SE
IG of Police was from SE
Chief of Defence Staff was from SE
Internal Affairs Minister SE
External Affairs Minister SE
Education Minister South SE
Many other key ministries to SE
Parliament President SE
Unilag VC from SE
The University of Ibadan VC from SE
North resisted same at ABU!

Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!!

Out of all the most senior officers in Nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed.

Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!

We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is a tendency to think those are truths and facts.

*What follows are documented facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity!"*

Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

*“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central government because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then. Today, he is shouting restructuring that he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”*.

WHAT BIAFRANS WILL NEVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE REAL CAUSE OF THEIR WOES IN NIGERIA TODAY:

The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in Nigeria. In their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of Nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire Nigeria nation. The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating.

However, the national archives have the complete and unedited history of Nigeria regarding the political events beginning way back from even before 1914. I will therefore proceed to furnish my readers with the complete story for all to read and be endowed with enough facts so as to judge and act from an informed position.

Shortly after the 1914 Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, it started getting clear that the country was bound to fail as the amalgamation in question was done with colonial fiat without the consent and consensus of the different tribes which were over 300. This prompted the political leaders to start asking for de-amalgamation so as to forestall the future danger which the forced amalgamation portended.

To that end, Ahmadu Bello, speaking on behalf of the Northern protectorate in 1944 described the amalgamation as "The mistake of 1914 which if allowed to remain will ultimately lead to unstoppable bloodshed and a failed country".
Awolowo, speaking on behalf of the Yorubas and Western minorities, described Nigeria as a mere geographical expression not qualified to be called a country let alone a nation. Awolowo added that if the amalgamation could not be reversed, then Nigeria should be structured as a strictly federal state so as to enable each tribe enjoy autonomy this freedom from being dominated by any one single tribe.

But Nnamdi Azikiwe, speaking for the Igbos, denounced Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello, terming them ethnic champions. He accused them of nursing a sectional agenda against the unity of Nigeria, and he declared further that the Unity of Nigeria was non-negotiable.

After moving the motion for independece in 1953, Anthony Enahoro proposed that a secession clause should be incorporated into the future constitution of Nigeria so as to give legal backing for any tribe to peacefully exit the forced union if it feels marginalized in future. According to Enahoro, such provision in our constitution would instill in all Nigeria's future leaders the fear of the consequences of misgovernance. But Azikiwe, speaking on behalf of Igbos, rose against him in the parliament and labelled him an agent of disunity, and enemy of Nigeria. At a later date, Awolowo too made a case for secession clause, but Azikiwe again resisted him and instigated the colonial authorities to threaten him and Enahoro with charges of treasonable felony if they didn't stop proposing secession clause for the future constitution. While Azikiwe did all these, Igbos cheered and urged him on because they felt the future Nigeria was theirs to dominate and lord it over every other tribe

Before independece, Tafawa Balewa too had in a public speech described Nigeria as a British experiment and Nigeria's unity as a British intention which Nigerians themselves don't believe in. But Azikiwe kicked and demonized him too. Had Azikiwe co-operated with Enahoro, Awolowo, Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa about the secession clause, Nigeria perhaps would not have been this misgoverned.

For those in doubt, here is a link of one of the numerous instances in which Nnamdi Azikiwe fought against the secession clause proposal for the future Nigeria constitution.

It should be noted that there were many Igbo members of the parliament in which Azikiwe fought against Awolowo's secession clause proposal in the link above, but not a single one of them rose against Azikiwe or condemned him.

Igbos initially never wanted to hear anything like secession in Nigeria because they so much believed, though falsely, that they were the most educated tribe. (The first Nigerian tribe to produce a university graduate is the Binis). As an evidence of Igbo domination agenda hence their initial resistance to the idea of secession; here are some quotes:

"From all indications, the god of us Igbos have destined us to rule the whole of Africa"..... Nnamdi Azikiwe (1945).

Stupid girl so Kaduna Nzeogwu was from the SE

Alexgman1:
We all have one girl, lady or woman out there we are deeply inlove with but can not date or have access to her maybe because:
1) she has rejected your proposal or
2) shes beyond your level and class or
3) you cant ask her out because shes in a seriously relationship (probably engaged) and cant double date.

But if per-adventure a lady who is deeply inlove or crushing on you toast you and ask you to give her a chance will you accept?

A woman who knows what she wants and goes about this in a decent way is a very attractive quality.

The greenery of this town is it's #1 gift. Never knew it was so beautifully afforested. I hope this isn't lost to urbanizaton. I can build taller to fit more offices and facilities in one space while making a conscious effort to preserve or regions legendary forests and trees.

Credit to Eboh Media for opening our eyes to this amount of vegetation. Its very possible with good planning and execution that a wildlife reserve on the outskirts can be preserved as a tourist delight, bringing in extra revenue, similar to plans for the centenary city project in Abuja.

The recent activation of the Onitsha River port and Innosson expansion plans into Imo state should alert the authorities on the need for road expansion, town planning to accommodate industrial/residential estates and commercial market expansion.

Work ongoing at awka township stadium I don't know how serious Obiano is about that project or probably maybe they are doing another project there I saw bulldozers clearing the area recently
I seriously hope this is the case. It is shameful that in the whole of southeast there is only the Nnamdi Azikiwe stadium, Enugu that is of FIFA standard.

With the commencement of operations of Onitsha and extension of Onne ports, there would an expansion of commerce and infrastructural development in the East. With this in mind the IMSG should be forward thinking in developing business centres/industrial estates in places like Orlu which is somewhat near Onitsha environs. This is due to the fact that 60%of cargo shipment is headed towards the east.

Sports / Re: Chidi Nwanu Speaks On Gang-up Against Westerhof At USA 94 by madubaymi: 7:01pm On Aug 22, 2020
This isn't the first time Chidi Nwanu has commented on the shenanigans behind the scenes of the national team. I remember in one of his indepth interviews, for complete football magazine in the 90's, where he specifically pointed out Keshi as one of his nemesis who tried to block his path into the super eagles.

It is no secret that the likes of Stephen Keshi had a huge influence in the team operations. I'm not against the man (RIP). I will be eternally grateful for his delivering of our third AFCON title. The case is if the likes of Nwanu and the latter day Taye Taiwo can state to bear witness to such unscrupulous dealings then it warrants at least a discussion and even investigation if our football is allowed to grow organically with the discovery and opportunities rendered to true talents.

This project has been in the pipeline since 2013 during the TAO administration. It has been decided that location is sited in the border area axis of Ikwuano, Isiala Ngwa North and Umuahia South LGAs. In fact there had even begun to commence clearing the land before the project stalled.
