Yoruba Muslims were never happy since that airstrip was approved and they have to push it to the national assembly.

The deep division between Yoruba Muslims and Yoruba christians is something else.
PoliticsRe: Pictures From The New Flyover Project Along Enugu-Abakaliki Express by Objectivist04: 11:01pm On Oct 30, 2024
ckenneths:
You are very wrong Sir, the hours I have lost parking in a long hold up on this very spot in the last 8 years is more than 100 hours, Lost. Usually, in the evenings, a long flow of big trucks move from Ebonyi state to Enugu, Anambra and other states, supplying stone chippings, trucks bearing merchandise also enter from Cameroon, Cross river, Benue, Nassarawa and Benue states enter Enugu en route Onitsha from this road.

Ok, now the reverse


Thousands of trucks bearing merchandise from Lagos, Onitsha, Aba and Port Harcourt pass this road to Ebonyi, Cross Rivers all the way to Cameroon. Its usually mad traffic.

The plan for this flyover is to lift the inter state/inter country traffic up on the overpass, they should speed past, while we on the local level stay underneath, pass from Emene to Akpuoga, Obinagu, Umuode, Oruku, and to the new government priority project, the new Enugu smart city project. This flyover is very very necessary.
Anybody saying that flyover is not necessary does not know the place. Among all the five roads that connects Enugu city, Enugu Abakalili road is the busiest . Note that people from benue, taraba , Adamawa etc now use the road while going to Onitsha and Aba for business so as to avoid the 9th mile Makurdi road which is in a terrible state.
From that flyover to inside the city should be six lanes with 8th lane service as service lane .

Construction of Ogbere aku road

Earthworks on all the access roads to communities in Igbo etiti including aku Nsukka lejja road


Rural roads earthworks in Unadi, ero agu, ogurute etteh road, massive rural electrification projects in Enugu ezike, ovoko, ibagwa, construction of ugbene ajima road, abi , nrobo, adani ogurugu road, nkporogwu, Umulokpa road, what exactly do you want again?


Na his impossission of Udenu man as deputy Governor that cost him the senatorial seat
My brother let us tell ourselves the truth, I have been around since 1999 and can aptly rate all the governments since then.
Ugwuanyi abandoned enugu city in the name of focusing on the rural area so we expect an outstanding performance from him at the rural area but apart from udenu and Nsukka I can boldly tell you that Sullivan and Chimaroke did better than him in other local governments.

For example Chimaroke opened up enugu Ezike by constructing the Obollo Afor ogrute road which is about 12 kilometers , , Sullivan reconstructed nsukka Enugu Ezike road which is more than 20 kilometers. These two roads opened up Enugu Ezike and some part of igbo Eze south,. Is that what you want to compare with Ugwuanyi whose choice of road to construct depends on the prominent politiciam that lives along the road ?
He constructed four roads in enugu state but all of them are not up to 12 kilometers. Ugwuanyi will be constructing roads in phases , village road o, he will do 1 km and call it phase 1 then later come for second and call it phase 2, for God's sake which serious governor does that ?

As for ero Agu and unadu that you mentioned, nothing was done in those communities and I am telling you because my part of enugu Ezike shares boundaries with the two communities..
The proposed construction was on paper but didn't hit ground until he left office.

Mba said he will do 10km of road per ward , even if he ended up doing only 5km , per ward, by the time he will leave office he would have done at least 70 killometers in each local government.

Ugwuanyi is indefensible because he failed. He is building fire service in ogrute when what we needed was road infrastructure and health. I only gave him kudos in terms of education, yes he tried in that aspect for both primary, secondary and tertiary but in the area of infrastructure, he failed except in Nsukka and udenu not talking about how he left enugu without doing anything in the capital.

Wishful thinking
Keep deceiving yourself, if Ugwuanyi has actually done anything in the rural areas , he would have won his senate election hands down . Apart from Idenu and Nsukka town tell me where he did anything meaningful.
In Igbo Eze north he did less than 15km of road in eight years, in Igbo Eze south it is even worse, what about Igbo Etiti ? And that is fore a government that prides itself as rural oriented. I don't even want to talk about other zones because they received less .
Ugwuanyi was a failure and unfortunately has gone down as the worse governor in Enugu state.

He didn't do much in terms of rural roads, despite neglecting the city in the name of focusing on rural roads. By the time Mba completes his four years, he would have by far outperformed Ugwuanyi in terms of rural roads not to talk about cities

What is happening today in Enugu in terms of giant leadership shows that with just a Governor with clear and transformational vision great things can be done. Mbah is showing that poor states like Enugu etc, earns enough ravenue to touch every aspect of societal growth only if they had visionary and development oriented technocrat as their Governor. Mbah is more technocrat that a politician and you can see he has turned Ifeanyi Uguwuanyi (Gburuburu) once dormant State into a huge construction site.
Enugu is not a poor state, a state among the top 10 in terms of IGR can not said to be poor.

Mbah is a successful man both in intelligence. This road is crucial to Enugu state and nsukka in particular not when the minister of works that awards, build and commission projects on papers. The makurdi to 9th mile is the only option but on a sorry state and very far to connect to Enugu from nsukka.
This road will also open up those communities along the axis for investment and development. Let it not be an abandoned project oooo grin
Mbah is a visionary
I don't understand you, opening what exactly ? We are talking about an existing road which is also in good condition and very busy , Mba is only dualizing it but you are commenting as if he is building a virgin road through the bush

Someone is doing an infrastructure critical to the state and you are sectionalising it . Out of that 43km about 18 to 20 kilometers lie within enugu east local government. The construction of the same road by Sullivan Opened up Nike villages susch that you now lands inside the village going for 20m and above not to talk about those along the express or just close. Flats are being rented for 600 to 800k now in areas that used to be a typical villages with few none indigenous peasant farmers living there.

PoliticsRe: Delta State Receives More Money Monthly Than Abia And 3 Other States - Ned Nwoko by Objectivist04: 5:14pm On Oct 28, 2024
EmekaA125:
SE thrives on internally generated revenue more than Federal Allocation.
Imagine the funds being remitted to Anambra coffers from the over 65 markets in Onitsha metropolis alone. Nnewi, Awka, Ihiala markets are not included yet oooo. The problem with SE is there are many loopholes siphoning government revenue because the amount those governors announce publicly as IGR per each month is way too small. Anambra can fund any mega project without FG input.
.you contradict yourself by saying that South East thrives by IGR and still talked about most of the IGR being siphoned . So if most of the funds are going into private pocket how then are they thriving by such ?
Anambra's IGR for last year 2003 is just 30b and I don't think such amount can finance any mega project in today's Nigeria.
Note that informal sector which is the dominant in Anambra does not generate much IGR as you think. What generates significant IGR are fg institutions like schools , airports , hospitals etr, multinational companies,corporate businesses like banks, shopping malls, eatries , private universities etc
The above is the reason why Kaduna generate more than Kano despite the heavy commercial activity in Kano , also why Ogun generate more than Oyo given that Oyo is more commercialized than Ogun and enugu ahead of Anambra despite Anambra having two commercial cities while Enugu has none.

The person you quoted is right, south east thrives by foreign repatriation not IGR because the IGR of enugu in 2003 which happened to be the highest in south east is just 33b which is half of what Edo generated same year and quiet insignificant, just equivalent of 2 months FAAC allocation to the state not to talk about Ebonyi that generated just 4b on the said year.

Foreign remittance and FAAC does the magic not any imaginary IGR

Wike was played and he lost so much money during the election but working against Tinubu that he openly opposed and abused, was down downtrodden.

Atiku on d other hand is not a smart politician. I wouldn't av picked Okowa as a running mate. Okowa had no political relevance and obviously was a wrong choice, very bad choice.

Aligning with Wike, Obi and Kwakwanso would av made him winner but pride and wrong advise cost him everything.
Okowa has more political relevance than Osinbajo in 2015, more than Jonathan in 2007, and probably more than Shettima in 2023. The only wining vice president that had more relevance than Okowa was Atiku himself, so I don't think that was the problem.

Before the end of the third year, Mbah would go down as the best governor Enugu state has ever produced beating Sullivan while Chimaroke come a distant third and Gburus limping behind as the fourth and final position.
You can't say Chimaroke came distant third, the truth is that the guy is being misjudged. Remove his doctorial brand of politics and I can tell you that the man really tried in enugu state. Note that Chimaroke took over from the military when there is no infrastructure and started laying the foundation for which his successors are building upon.

During his regime, he attracted the Nigerian Brewery, made use of his closeness to president Obasanjo to see that the perm site for UNTH was started and completed. Other direct achievement from him include

ESUT Parklane Teaching Hospital
ESUT perm site at Agbani
Agbani law school
Ebeano tunnel
Ebeano housing estate
Dualization of Chime avenue
Dualization of four corner Agbani road
Construction of Obollo Afor Enugu Ezike road
These are the few I know because I was not in Enugu during his tenure,
He also started but could not complete the now about to complete international conference center
The hospital close to the conference center.
In terms of making or detecting good leaders, Chimaroke has no rival, note that he was the one that selected both Sullivan and Peter Mba

The only governor he had no say about his emergence was Ugwuanyi and you know how he ended up.
I am not a fan of Dr Nnamani but I believe he is not given the honour due him but then he ruined everything by his high handedness which I believe his Young age was a factor coupled that he had no predecessor to learn a lesson from.

PoliticsRe: Enugu Revenue Agency Introduces Single Tax Payment, Eliminates Multiple Taxation by Objectivist04: 10:15am On Oct 23, 2024
immortalcrown:
I have witnessed them multiple times. But you missed my point. Is the new system to lessen the building of taxation on the taxpayers or to ensure that the untrustworthy tax collectors do not take part of the money they collect?

For example, they introduced online tax for Keke and bus drivers but increased the amount by more than 100%. Keke daily tax moved from 100 Naira to 250 Naira. So, how is the newly-introduced electronic system in the interest of the tax payers? Should I talk about ESWAMA levies?
Everything has gone upward , you don't expect government to still be collecting 100 from Keke operators in 2024 when a drop now is 300. Making it possible for them to pay at ease using their phones and at their convenient time so long it doesn't exceed 3pm is an added advantage.
Anambra is collecting about 1k daily from Keke drivers while Lagos collects about 2k
PoliticsRe: Enugu Revenue Agency Introduces Single Tax Payment, Eliminates Multiple Taxation by Objectivist04: 8:45pm On Oct 22, 2024
immortalcrown:
The unfriendliness of the taxation system lies in the tax rate (the total amount an individual pays yearly) and how you use the tax, not in the divisions of the tax.

10 different taxes that amount to 1,000 Naira yearly are better than a single tax that amounts to 5,000 Naira yearly.

So, does your e-ticket reduce the amount an individual pays as yearly tax and ensure prudent spending of the taxes? If not, be sincere to say that your concern is not about the taxpayers but about collecting all the money from the untrustworthy tax collectors you deploy.

As you introduce the single tax system, be accountable as well. May God help your administration to serve well.
You are right but harmonized payment has its own merits, maybe you have never been harassed by these revenue collectors, especially those from the local government especially ndi Nike in Enugu east local government and eswama.

The worst thing that can happen to you a business owner is to encounter revenue collectors who are actually collecting for their pockets not for government because the desperation and agressiveness will be out of this world
