Let's face the reality, this project will be a massive failure. What does the state have to act as a stimulus to drive population to the new city? Even Abuja is still struggling to attract the right sets of people, as well built, developed and relatively peaceful as it is.
Do they think Kano is Dubai? Where people can come and live and holiday in pleasure. Ordinary landing their planes in Kaduna airport was a big problem for foreign airlines, yet they think a new city in the region will attract popular vote.
The North, with Its insecurity is a self-inflicted problem that must be dealt with, otherwise they can't make much progress.

A lot bro



If you travel from Lagos to the East you will see them.

They mostly use Mercedes Benz trucks. Very rarely will you see their Innoson buses.

do a makeshift fence with wood branches

We are just sitting on a keg of gunpowder. The last tenure devoted much energy to fertilizer subsidy and dry season farming. We also experienced a bountiful harvest later in the year because the earlier policies yielded fruits.
These days, these two policies wasn't sustained and costs of input are twice what they are. I pray by the harvest season of this year we can see enough to get by. Buhari won't finish us with hunger

Be deceiving yourself. No wonder someone ran all the way from Kenya to come and collect our marathon prize and MTN, DSTv and the likes have not sold their stakes if Nigeria is not a golden market.
It's not a matter of exchange rate, but many other things are attached which makes a country garner respect. Go and ask Ghana.
As unstable as our currency is, we can still afford to send foreign aid to many countries on that list tomorrow. The horse that runs ahead of the crowd is crowned king. Not necessarily the one with the muscles.

Dumb! in fact, really really dumb!!! Why can't they rather built environmental courts to arrest the black soot issues that is trending there of recent?
Did Jesus ask us to open any court on his behalf? I wonder why we always find new ways to create division among ourselves. What next, build markets for Christians only and register all Christian artisans for social security.

Questions that beg for answers:

What are the terms for private Danfo drivers to access the buses?
Although it's a free world, why patronize TATA instead of INNOSON?
Has TATA an Assembly plant in Nigeria?
What logistics are there to create employment rather than drive some people into unemployment market?
Is Lagos state Government considering training personnel for purposes of servicing the vehicles?

You may add your own perplexities.

Naija nah wah for you O. We always cut of our own nose to spite our face.

Gov. Ambode is a hard working governor, but he failed this one.

Does anybody here think IVM will win any indian govt contract over TATA ? The answer is HELL NAH !!!

The governor should have partnered with IVM on this venture. If the contract is too big for IVM, they could have partnered in a win-win ppp format. That would establish IVM assembly plants in lagos, creating thousands of jobs.

Dealing with TATA only makes sense, if TATA is willing to manufacture/assemble the buses in lagos.

Like Dangote's deal with sinotruk. They will jointly build a plant in lagos, in order to manufacture 10,000 trucks for dangote cement distribution.

Also, dangote had previously patronized IVM for his distribution network in Ghana.

This is what happens in a country, where tribalism supercedes Patriotism.


FYI, IVM has manufactured and donated 4x4 jeeps to our military, while our military patronizes Toyota hilux trucks and ford trucks.

IVM, has found local solutions to NAF's Alphajet brake assemblys, whereas NAF purchases "Honker" trucks from Poland.

Just saying.

Why don't you first ask how many Innoson vehicles are flagship for The young Shall grow, Ekene dili chukwu, First Tarzan, Chisco and numerous other Eastern transport household names? After all the plant is already there and all.. Besides, I have never noticed an igbo entrepreneur ride an Innoson SUV. I'm sure the money is not the problem here. You people have refused to patronize your own brother, yet you want to force his products down our throat. It just doesn't work that way. We are not fools down south.

They just opened the largest poultry in Anambra. Let's hope it meets the demand from that corridor. The actual truth is that the south west has better experience with agriculture. They know how to do it cheaper. The climate also tends to be more favourable in the south west. I can bet you that the price of poultry products from the new farm will still be more expensive than that from Ibadan.

Greetings sir,
I'd like to come to cotonou for business. I just completed my nysc and we all know the story of unemployment in Nigeria. Presently, I'm a hussler,i import little stuffs from Asian countries,i'd like to come to cotonou to sell them,but I don't know anybody in cotonou and I don't speak French. I'd like you to be kind enough to help in taking me or provide for me a guide who could take me to a big market like Tokpa,so I can sell to traders there. You could drop you number here so I can reach you, or, better still, this is my number 08055544609
Please sir,i'd be happy if you would be kind enough to help a young boy that is just starting out in life.

I've since left Cotonou long time ago. About the relocation and stuff, I'll advise you consider it well. Our money has reduced in value so much lately so there is barely any business you can do to get much profit unlike before. Besides, they don't have as much spending power like Nigerians, if you are thinking market will be better over there.
Best wishes.

Visionlessness. When their counterparts are increasing their IGR through industrial growth and all, they are taxing goat and sheep owners. Why don't they go after Fulani herdsmen who are real menance to everyone anyway?

I just wonder how sustainable this project will be. Investing such a huge amount only on poultry, meanwhile you could have built an integrated farm with the same amount or slightly higher. If one venture fails, another will make up for the losses. Even the big farms in Ibadan dares not invest only in the poultry business. I've been involved in an agricultural project in the east and I find that sustainability of this line of business is a very big challenge over there.
I wish them good luck with their poultry, cos they are really going to need it.

May God save us from village people. Naso one guy take loose car opportunity during an Etisalat campus storm some years back. This one happened right in my presence. As his luck will have it, he was lured away by a girl for a frivolous reason.

Do you want justice for your friend or not? Then prove it by sharing convincing pictures. The era of power abuse by the military is gradually coming to an end via the social media.

Do you think Nigerians will warm up to foreign meals in their own country? Knowing fully well how we all have strong flair for meals of our mother tongue daily.

your own haf meet you!!!

Op, wake up. This is 2017 abeg. Driverless vehicles and flying cars have been invented already. Don't get stuck with the past.

So what is my sin? the option refuses to click on my own phone. So what is my sin? the option refuses to click on my own phone.

Jeez! That's what happens when people are lazy and refuse to hustle for their own money. They end up being a nuisance to people around them. The dude should be sentenced to death for his wicked actions.

Even the ones that are hardworking, we hear despicable stories from them too. We know how they poison the drinks of their friends and send hired killers to them too. Wickedness does not know hardworking or lazy people okay!

why will a lady do such a despicable thing? That is to say many beautiful girls we see on the streets all gorgeous and angel like are really cold devils in disguise. Many guys would not even be able to attempt a quarter of what today's girls do to survive. Yet tomorrow one innocent guy will pay millions to have her as mother of his children. If she's then unable to give birth, you will see her in solemn clothing, disturbing Jesus.

Lynden Farms set to flood Anambra with poultry
The Obiano administration’s dream of flooding Anambra State with poultry is expected to formally take-off on Friday, February 10, 2017, as Governor Obiano inaugurates the Lynden Farms, Igbariam.

The farm is taking off with 200,000 broiler houses with 8 pens, 93,000 layer houses with 3 pens, 33,000 pullets house with 1 pen, 2000 birds per house slaughter house and a feed mill.

That's quite interesting.

He can as well replace them with the Islamist Ishbahs, or whatever they call them. Bunch of backward-minded comedians, rather than concentrating their effort on human development projects, they'll rather be witch-hunting Churches, alcohol sellers and now the FRSC. What next? Cinema halls and hospitals??

interesting!

Don't you see that's the Military Police? An arm that checks the excesses of soldiers themselves. He needs to be made an example of, before military clothing becomes aso Ebi for all. Meanwhile shouldn't we be more concerned how he got the cloth? What if he isn't cripple and using it to perpetuate crime somewhere?

This is 2017. Na patience matter you still carry for head so? You need series of prayers and deliverance, then a day job and night security work join.

God will catch him. He should prepare to meet the fate of his predecessors if truly he is planning to do this.

I'm sure by now, those tabs have become opon ere (play). If the headline is true, why are candidates from IMO state still ahead in WAEC ratings? Perhaps another taxpayers fund down the drain. May God help us

They really need to come out clean about his health. No one waits for test results in hospital after going there first, on admission. You're either okay or you are not. Even if it is HIV test, DNA test or mammography, I think you can get your test results anywhere. I am not a medical personnel though.
If truly he's dead, the earlier we know, the better. Perhaps they are trying to clone him and he's not yet ready.

Be debating OAU being the best university or not there. Meanwhile the joblessness that is awaiting you after school is still doing press up. Wehdone.

Sorry about your plight. I'm not surprised such an evil thing happened in Aba. A lot of people there just think of nothing but evil continuously. I've been badly burnt there too...Yet they claim it is commercial capital of the east. God will catch all of them soon.

God is catching them small small. No wonder Abuja is in a terrible state of disrepair. Roads are so bad, manholes uncovered, large stretch of major roads are unlit, many other disappointing scenerios. Just yesterday I was discussing how Lagos is more effective than Abuja in terms of city infrastructure, which shouldn't be so, considering the overstretched status of the former.

Mobsync:
A good move. How can a non-Customs officer head the Customs. It is an insult. Can a non-military officer head the Army? Even a non-combatant army officer cannot even head the army not to talk of a non-Army officer. We need to use our senses when making appointments and learn to respect the constitution.

Nice one. Small pikin no know charm, I dey call am vegetable. They see free opportunity to learn a skill, they are shunning it. Do they think there is white collar job awaiting anyone these days of recession again? Their eyes will open soonest. I wish I could turn back the hands of time, could have taken this SAED seriously. Kudoes to the soldier.
