“It is equally insensitive for the Senate to come up with such dubious exercise at a time the whole of the northern region is literally abandoned at the mercy of a rampaging insurgency and sundry security issues designed to continuously weaken the region politically and pauperize it economically,” he said.

Who shall you accuse of abandoning you? Is the president and all military and paramilitary chiefs not from the Fulani north?

Is the north not occupying all the juicy positions in Nigeria?

Would you rather want ESN to come and fight bandits for you in the north?

This is incorrect! This man has practically done nothing in Enugu. Worst governor in recent times. Nothing in Udi, Oji River, Ezeagu, Nkanu and even in Enugu city. He should just come and do and be going, so that a governor with ideas can come and work.

I don't like his style. I feel he is slow, even in Nsukka there is no legacy project.

But he has touched virtually all the rural areas in Enugu State with dots of road projects. I must confess that those agro roads have the capacity to improve the quality of life of those in rural areas tremendously.

Developing the state capital is good; likes of Sullivan and Umahi of Ebonyi State took loans to spend in the capital city. But remember that Enugu is one of the largest land mass in Igbo land with a great deal of people and agricultural activities ongoing in the rural areas.

My greatest credit to him is that his Goverment has a little or no State sponsored assassination, killing, cultism, political oppression, financial extravagance, borrowing, sack of workers and other vices; as was the case of Chimaroke and Sullivan

Paying of civil servants may not be an achievement but it stablises a State. Since 6yrs of Ugwuanyi's administration, I received my salary before 25th of every month, even during the 2 recessions we had.

It's a cow government. I wonder how many cows the mannequin president in asorock sees openly grazing when he goes on those wasteful medical tourism trips in the UK. He should tell us about the cows he saw openly grazing during his last trip to France. The whole world and even the rest of Africa is fast advancing in all facets of human development but here in Nigeria, the president wants open cow grazing to continue to be a norm in this 21st century. I see why igbos want to break away from these backward, parasitic people.

The real reason Igbos are agitating is this primitive stubbornness being exibited by Malami and Garba Shehu. Why insisting that the Southern Governors should accommodate the world acclaimed 4th terror group among thier people?

You have hijacked everything in Abuja, every appointment is Fulani; why come down to our villages allowing headers from all the Sahel to move down South to kill, rape, kidnap people and displace our farmers?

BH have effectively mixed with ISWAP, killer headers, and bandits with unrestricted access to all Southern villages; yet FG don't care. This people are sending down truck loads of young boys to the South, yet FG applaud them.

What we saw is Army killing indigenous people of SE in search of ESN that was formed as FG falled to protect the SE people as we all can see. Today Nigerian forces enter streets of Owerri killing elderly women and children tagging them ESN.

We have reach the point that led to the first civil war and the FG clearly the oppressor.

There are hundreds of occupation in Nigeria; headers, palm tapers, teachers, traders, importers, physiotherapist, banker, nurse, doctor, accountant, caterer, student etc. Why is this federal government ready to sacrifice everybody because of headers that are less than 1%? Even the producers of the food we eat are chased away from farms and even thier villages for Fulani headsmen to take over. What is the real motive? It can't be for economic development.

Ive seen the excuse you have for ornamental trees� �
I’m waiting for the excuse you have to make for road markings

Chiarman, try not to interfere heavily on reports on a place you don't know. Enugu will pass for a city with ornamental trees, road markings, street lights, and traffic lights. They were installed and maintained in relevant places since the administration of Sullivan Chime.

We are still describing a street in a state capital in Nigeria, not in South Africa, Europe or North America. If your own state capital is like Enugu then Nigeria is having a facelift.

dettolgel:
Nice one from the governor but seriously the roads in Enugu states more especially the streets need rehabilitation.

Your excellence you should look at one of the worst roads in Enugu, which is the old Nsukka road that runs from 9th mile through Abor, Ukana down through Umulugbe.

Only the Abor part of the road that is motorable ( maybe it is because of the Njieze's) after that the remaining part of the road is a nightmare.

I feel for the villages along that road, it seems successive governments have neglected them. A times I wonder whether they have anyone from that axis that works with the governor?

I have not used that road for a long time since I finished school and left the east. Until last year that business brought me back to Enugu.
I passed through that road last year, the road was scrapped and all of a sudden work stopped. The road has been abandoned, I passed through same road last week because I was trying to avoid the Fulani around Egede at late evening.

Rumor has it that Senator Ike Ekweremadu diverted the work to build the road leading to his inlaw village.

For the avoidance of doubt next time I am going to Nsukka I will use the same road and get pictures.

Brother the road you described is terrible and bad ever since 2 decades and half I have been passing there.

It is an example of failure of Federal Government in SE. I don't think we have upto 8 federal roads passing Enugu State. All of them are like that. That is Enugu -9th mile - Makurdi Road. It was approved for dualization in FEC 2014, since then nothing. Same with Enugu to Awka end of Enugu Onitsha Road, Enugu to Okigwe end of Enugu - PH Road, same with Okigwe - Owerri Road, Aba - PH Road etc

I wonder if any one knows of a federal project initiated and completed in the SE since 6 year ago.

Elonmuskfan:
White markings, none
Street light, none
Trees? None planted

Just ordinary asphalt and shoddy job concluded!

Do you know where the road is to start with?
It is an inner street road with residential building at both sides of the drianage. Do you pull down a house to plant the trees?

What business do a road that terminate into people's houses have with a traffic road sign?

Are you sure the equivalent of this road in your state is ever asphalted?

Very interesting.
Justice for cows.
Cow life matters.

Hmmm

Who COVID 19 vaccine help?

I see

Globad:
Are they security personnel?

The move with police and civil defense.
Most politicians are assigned security details, for example each state government house has not less than 120 police men, plus CD, DSS, Army.

They can form a stronger vigilante, equip and supervise them while staying with them in the village. They know their life too is at stake.

It could be true, an APC chieftain in Sunrise daily program Channels TV, swore that that security men have been given order to deal decisively on those regions and that Nigerians will see a difference in the next 5 days.

Restructure Nigeria

They are always contradicting self.

I can't verify this video.

You are shameless for making me count these projects done by the former Governor's of Enugu


Let me stop here for now ...

You missed it. He said projects those governors did in Nsukka??

northvietnam:
The hospital he commission ====. Nsuka

This road he commission ======. Nsuka

The only flying over in Enugu town to decongest traffic , where is the Governor constructing it ======. Nike lake T-junction that leads directly to his home town Nsuka..

Where is the Governor from =====. Nsuka

If na buhari now , we igbos will start shouting marginalization and tribalism

Here we have a state Governor, 90% of his project since 2015 has been his home town Nsuka..

The rest of the state , he grabs their land and sells of to real estate developers ..

Governor Ugwuanyi has done more roads in the rural Ụdị, Ezeagu, and Nkanu regions than in Nsukka. In SEC they apportion projects in quota, the issue is that Chimaroke has built every farm path in Agbani, Sullivan did may roads in Ụdị. Both of them did not up to 6 roads in total in the entire 7 LGAs of Nsukka.

Enugu has 17 LGA among the 3 senatorial districts, 7 are in Nsukka (Enugu North Senatorial zone). Yet the place is severely marginalized. Nsukka Zone commands population and agriculture yet neglected. Infact Nsukka Youth protested more than 3 times in this administration. Nsukka is still in a big infrastructure mess under Ugwuanyi.

The so called Isi Ụzọ were the road in the article passed was drafted from Nsukka Zone to Nkanu Zone during Chimaroke regime, so technically they are not even Nsukka. Chimaroke moved ESUTH from Nsukka whole and entirely to Agbani. To mention but a few. Nsukka is catching up with other zones in Enugu gradually but in reality there is little or no State Goverment infrastructure in Nsukka, most roads have not been touched in the last two decades, especially the all important Agro routes.

For roads Ugwuanyi did Iyi Road in Orji River, 9th mile to Ezeagu road, assorted roads in Emene, Nike, Ụdị etc Google is there for you.

Maybe he can do one right people for his (Nsukka) people since his 5 yrs in office. All the inter local government roads in Nsukka are dungeons.

Nsukka is the sixth state of the South East

Nsukka all the way.
My Adada state loading....

We Christians are begging you to allow them to celebrate their Salah, after 40 days of fasting. I don't want to hear about any riot, because it is still Christian heads they will cut.

Who oil help in this era?

Let us keep on talking, one day we may get a true leader.

Rubber stamp + presidential cellophane bag.

helinues:
The truth is all regions in Nigeria are underdeveloped. All

Most populous black national still shouting up Nepa every now and then

When her people are afraid to drive because of SARS

When her people can not go out at night due to insecurity.

What exactly are Nigerians enjoying from both states and FG?

Our mumu has just begun

The main reason why people are shouting Biafra.

Gas is been flared seriously in Bayelsa on daily basis, yet the state government can't own and operate a power plant, or have a transmission system not to talk of distribution, it is on the exclusive legislative list. Only FG can...

A constitution that stops people from developing, yet we want a miracle out of it.

Can you see why this country is better not existing?

helinues:
As we can see the replica of 50s and 60s in the present SE states ....

Developer of other regions...

Take an average and I am sure Igbo states are not the least developed in Nigeria. I don't think any of them will rank lower than 16/36.

Not minding the deliberate lack of Federal presence in the SE region, take an average and I don't think it will rank less than 2/6.

Igbo region is not performing badly.

Officialgarri:
This is the kind of 'stupidity I was talking about on the Odion Ighalo thread where a Nigerian flag was waved in the stadium.

Anyway, as soon as this dunce realizes Iweala is not a biafran but from the SS, the better for him.
We Nigerians doesn't tribalize success. We take Anthony Joshua and the likes as Nigerians, not Yoruba or whatever.

I don't know a thing about Odion.

For Joshua you have right to call him a Yoruba, in fact he is.

What held Nigeria down is forcing every (Region) child to develop at the same pace using the least benchmark (Northern standard).

I don't know if you have met Iweala in person, if not, I have. She is from Delta State I agree, but she is one of those that carry Biafra matter for head more than the so called Kanus.

She is Igbo, she speaks it and she don't joke with her Igbo ancestry.

Stop wishing Igbos bad rather wish yourself well.

Our first Baifran female president...

We love her too much. Mummy don't have an equivalent in the West or North. The day we leave his entrapment, the whole world will turn to us in search of innovators.

Today we are still in a country where the worst olodo, the dumbest leads the Nation.

Where mediocrity is given priority over meritocracy in our constitution, yet we wish in vain to turn to a super world power soonest.

Wrong title...

when you think you have seen it all...madness will just stare you on the face.
