Thanks for the lengthy response and the care you put into its clarification.

I do not recall at any time in the history of Nigeria when a clash between West and Arabs or entities in MidEast has resulted in any wave of disturbance in the entire Sovereign State of Nigeria. Usually any uprising in support of MidEast and Arab sentiments has been narrowed to the North.

On that basis, this nationwide alert is unecessary. The IGP should have followed precedence. In particular, there are Shiites in North who out of sympathy and spiritual allegiance might come out to support Iran. Still, their actions, even as they rally for release of their leader, Zakzaky, has so far never exceeded the Northern boundaries.

It is an act of incompetence that the IGP would throw out a blanket order without an actionable intelligence to base his alert on. I do not mind him being proactive for volatile North....I take offense to him extendimg the alert to restive South.

Since we are talking about Iran, a foreign nation. Assuming Iran intends any harm for Western assets in Nigeria, their reach, skill, knowledge and operational strategy to deploy stealthily and carry out a terror is all too high level for Nigerian Police to detect or thwart....it should be an assignment for Nigerian Army.

Naptu,
I hope your comment is not in defense of the hopeless IGP. You are just being patriotic, correct?

When fulani herdsmen were terrorizing communities did IGP put police on nationwide alert to curb criminality? Why is he putting them on alert on this issue between America and Iran?

Stay a patriot but please dont speak in defense of these nuisance leaders.

patobiora1979:
If you follow the happenings very well iour law and security officials need to be at alert because united states of America have there diplomatic commission here and other agencies.no one knows where or what region or country they might plan to attack so it's just logical.And I really laugh at some comments when people say Iran can't do anything to America,let's just pray nothing happens cos no one knows what Iran is cooking up..no small country again o

Afam4eva:
Like i said, this thread serves all purposes.

Afam4eva:
These topics are intertwined as someone rightly pointed out. They are all embedded in politics and economy.

I find it strange that you keep talking about secessionist issues even though I'm yet to see one and even though I don't think see how it's unconnected to politics.

Y dont u go and get a life instead?

This cannot be healthy for you.

I cannot imagine myself as an Igbo man, just plant in Yoruba thread all day everyday.

At least we are discussing our own issue, which is wat the forum was created to do.

Afam4eva:
No offence but this thread was created to discuss Pan Igbo issues which could be political, social, cultural or economic. Apart from the insults, I don't think anyone is going off tangent.

U and I know Buhari will be there 10 years and the railway bridge wont see the light of day.

FG to construct coastal rail to terminate in Onitsha – Buhari

...Says Second Niger Bridge now to be completed in 2021

13th October 2019
Jeff Amechi Agbodo, Onitsha

President Muhammadu Buhari has assured the South-East geopolitical zone of a third bridge project, a coastal rail that will terminate in Onitsha with a spur unto Nnewi in Anambra State.

He promised that the construction of the coastal rail would start next year that will pass through Onitsha to Asaba, from Agbor to Warri, from Warri to Utako to Ajaokuata to Abuja.

The president who made the promise in a goodwill message at the weekend in Onitsha during Obi of Onitsha’s 18th Ofala festival said that there were many ongoing roads projects in the South East zone.

Buhari who was represented by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige appealed to the host communities of second Niger Bridge project to give peace chance to enable the construction firm to complete the project as scheduled.



He said the second Niger Bridge is now a reality as work is ongoing while the construction company handling the project has assured of completing the work six months earlier in 2021 than the scheduled date of 2022.

“The host communities should pipe low and should not demand too much compensation to enable the contractor to complete the project on time. The contractor, Julius Berger, said it will complete the job six months ahead of the stipulated time of 2022. The contracting firm promised that they would now complete the project in 2021.

“The second Niger Bridge is now a reality; the pillars are springing up. The funding of the project is in place from sovereign wealth fund and Federal Government fund. I want to assure the people of Onitsha, the people of Anambra State and the people of South East zone that the third bridge which is the coastal rail that will terminate in Onitsha with a spur unto Nnewi later. The construction will start next year. The rail will go through Onitsha to Asaba, from Agbor to Warri, from Warri to Utako to Ajaokuata to Abuja.

“The Enugu-Onitsha expressway is on going. The Umunya section of the road that had been waterlogged has been done. The job is now moving down to Amansea and from there to Enugu; the most important parts of the job have been done. Then, the road from Onitsha -Orba-Amichi- Uga-Arondizugo-Okigwe work is also ongoing. Another road from Enugu-Okigwe-Umuahia-Aba-Port Harcourt, the four sections of the roads have been awarded and immediately after the rain stops, the work will commence on those roads.

“There is award of 9th Mile-Otrukpo-Makurdi road. So the South East zone has not been left out in the infrastructural development,” he assured.
