Abuja is the seat of power, it has something to offer. Portharcourt is the oil and gas hub of Nigeria, it has something to offer. Lagos is the business capital of Nigeria, it has something to offer. What has Anambra got offer investors? Nothing but average population size at best.

Like the Singaporeans did, lure the investors with little or no tax, when they get comfortable, do whatever you like because they can run no more.

This is Ignorance. Anambra has so much to offer ,the state is one fastest in urbanization due to influx of people.

nnamdijonathan:
The Chinese company and other stakeholders were going to spend 2 billion dollars on that airport, don't you think it would have been better to use that money to build a thermal power plant or assist century power to complete their 2,000mw power plant in Okija, at least, Anambra has gas deposits. Anambra can also invest in a 500mw wind power plant which will not even cost as much as 2 bn dollars.

Great idea but the over technicality that shrouds the Nigeria power sector probably makes it unattractive for the Chinese investors. Moreover, the Chinese rarely believe in partnership, they want absolute control. They would rather build a privately owned power project.

hammer6F:
Nwanne, I appreciate your honesty, we need this type of honesty in Ala igbo politics.

So, Obiano used phantom airport to deceive us?

I wouldn't say deceive but over ambitious. He has the will to do it but lets be honest Anambra do not have the financial strength to tackles all the infrastructural needs of the state. We need to increase taxes, that's the only way out. Our people don't want to pay taxes. There is no way a shop owner in main market should not pay up to 20,000 naira in revenue, monthly. These citizens are robbing the state.

hammer6F:
Ibu ezigbote nwa anambra...

Omabala wat is the status of Obiano inetrnational cargo airport?

I don't think that airport will be done in 10 yrs! There are more pressing issues that takes priority over that fraudulent Chinese airport. You think Chinese people are gonna come and build an airport for you ? Obiano need to invest more in high quality roads.

APGA GA ACHI ANYI OZO NDI ANAMBRA NWERRE NMADU DI KA OBIANO ...CARRY GO OBIANOOOO.

You are not from Anambra and 99% write nwelu not nwere. GTFOH!

The Yorubas , take the arrival of the Europeans and they are not much different from the Northerners. Have you been to the Yoruba villages and see their living conditions?? Their bread and butter is THE ALMIGHTY LAGOS WHERE EVERY ONE OF THEM ORIGINATED FROM. As long as Lagos exist Yorubas will keep playing the ostrich. Yorubas don't really know what they want from Nigeria nor their destiny. If Yeebos clamor for secession Yorubas will start their own, if Northerners push an agenda they will equally join them. I don't think Yorubas are people who are ready to do anything tangible to define their destiny in the present Nigeria. But I know one thing, they will not chose to stay with the north if Nigeria breaks but they will not ask for secession. They just want you Yeebos to do the work...lol. I guess that the definition of that sanctimonious word SHOFISHTICATED..LOL

The average Igbo man is politically deficient I guess because we never build a kingdom to afford us the experience on how to play national politics. An Hausa shoe shiner is more politically equipped than even an Igbo University graduate.

I listened to Nnamdi Kanu and his followers and I was stunned by the carelessness with which they insulted the Fulani,Hausa and even the Yoruba.

Listen, you see a northerner has nothing to lose , the Yoruba has Lagos and they could careless if you Yeebos burn to ashes. A northern is accustomed to living in a deplorable condition and their mentality is million miles apart from the Igbo man who want to be rich and live an affluent life. The northerner is comfortable with the way their elites exploit them and to them its the wish of ALLAH MAGNIFICENT...LOL. You, the Igbo is the only one concerned with the state of governance. They have nothing to lose and they will do anything humanly possible to frustrate you.

Ignorance , arrogance and lack of public etiquette was at the root of the fall of Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB followers. Nnamdi Kanu of all people should have known how much these SS ethnic minorities resent the Igbo yet you ffoollishly carved them into your imaginary Biafran state. These people denied you publicly and even joined Yorubas to insult , incite and mock you yet you think they are your allies!!

AKswift:
Nigeria...��

Coward!!

AnambraDota:
the funny part is that those conjuring the data can't even point at one thing Osun State produce, apart from international breweries ilesha and Tons Farms nothing meaningful is happening in Osun.

backlog of salaries and pensions are still being owed, there are more public schools because private schools can't thrive there.
inasmuch food is cheap there and bus meat readily available, Osun State is very poor state even but fifth world standard.

Every Yoruba person is from Lagos...lol

AKswift:
‘Ease of Doing Business’ is horrible in the East

Where are you from ?

omadeltason:
I don't even believe this man ifeanyi uba this man will return to PDP if he finally win through APGA support okolocha the governor of IMO state did it .

Your time is up, here. My eyes are on you. Watch out! You think you have the wit to outsmart us here ?

NtoAkwaIbom:
hahahhaha
that's the idea... once u r mad enough, u will do what u should have since done.. calling ur dogs to oda.

Oga, stop foaming in the mouth for no good reason. Firstly, you did not address the issue OP raised rather you jumped in here and started insulting Igbo people and that is ffoollishness on your part. Secondly, you sound furious and hateful and there is absolutely no need for you to feel like that because nothing has prompted such behavior, except some hidden hatred you habor for the Igbo which will only blind and destroy you.

Thirdly, stop behaving like a lunatic and have a civilized discussion.

The supposed Ibbibio girl started a thread and ran away while Igbos are insulted. Sad

Has Osun paid workers yet?

achi4u:
Hope you are the true OMANBALA1 I use to interact with. What you meant here might be different from what horsepower101 maybe saying.

If truly you are Igbo, just stop this unnecessary fight.

He brought Anambra into it , firstly. He could have praised Abia without spiting Anambra.

Oga, why don't you verify before posting this news. You should know better, you are not a newbie. Nwokem, onye ana ekili-ekili adiro mma ikpo ntu!

Strikethem:
[s][/s]Stop posting old news as current one. Thanks

The current result will still not be different from this past one.

IbrahimDamola:
My yoruba mooslim brother are you praying to allah for Abia to hate Anambra and vice versa, so that our muslim skulls can rejoice and be glad?

Keep quiet and use your head for once, ofu ogoli!

mightguy:
oga sef. We know say nah anambrarian u be. But don't hate anoda igbo State.nah my abia state time to shine nah

He brought Anambra into it ,firstly, making it seem as though Abia students were better. However,its on record Anambra is the state with the least cases of exam malpractice. The result of this waec exams is the true reflection of the reforms started by Peter Obi and Obiano is continuing with it. If you paid attention you will notice Anambra dropped by two to three places in the last three exams due to the aggressive crack downs on exam malpractice and even the number of students taking exams in Anambra dropped drastically because its no business as usual.

Abia can go clean up their houses and then come talk to us instead of deceiving everybody with these fraud of a result.

horsepower101:
Notice how all the South East states are always in the top 10 every year.

Whenever the playing field is level and system is Merit based, Igbos always come out on top. This happens all over the world not just in Nigeria. This is why the north had to drag us down with quota system.

I am extremely impressed with students from Abia state. Even though they don't get the same level of educational support Anambra students get.


CC; lalasticlala

Anambra has almost zero exam malpractice. Same cant be said of Abia.

I thought these motor parts sellers people don't go to school?

Nwanne, kedu ije?

When great men wrote on Nairaland. These days the forum is littered with Pseudo intellectuals...Sad!

omadeltason:
bro Awka is not by far bigger than Nnewi .Nnewi has twice population of Awka I have been in both two cities .

Who is this ffooll, again , I ask. Can you please disappear from this thread??

uglyafonja:
Are you for real.....Nnewi metropolis is far more populated and bigger than awka......

Nnewi metropolis include Nnobi, NNEOKWA, UKPOR, Ichi, Ozubulu, Awka etiti, Amichi, ihembosi, Orsumeyi and ezinifite

Who allocated these towns as Nnewi Metropolis ? Mind you Nnokwa,Awka Etiti and Nnobi are all in Idemmili. I can understand the rest of the towns you listed but try not to mixe everything up.

cococandy:
All these long stories so that men can keep their wives to themselves and sleep around as they wish.

Unfortunately we know for a fact that that’s not the case. Any danger present in sleeping with a married woman is also present when you sleep with a married man. So balance your teaching. tenkiu

Nwanyi Oka, anya di gi n'ilo!

Nsn123:
Nice knowing all these names. Pls, also in addition, I would like to know how the naming ceremony for a child is being done for a couple from Asaba. Also pls if u can shed more light on Asaba and Ibusa names and their meanings. I like Kamsi and Munachi alot. My hubby is from Asaba and I'm currently preggy. Thanks all. Patiently waiting..

Awele is a common name in Asaba for women means easy way. Isioma is also is another one for female.

bigfrancis21:
I was saying Kaodinma because the interpretation of Kaodinna does not make any sense really, at least Kaodinma sort of makes sense. I've never seen such name before, including Kaodinma, maybe someone else here could help you out.

Idenmili uses Kaodina which means however it seems. ka osina di...Its pure Idenmili phrase. Dont rush to conclusion.

BabaRamota1980:
Shut up!!

I say shut up!!!

Obi has investment in Lagos and if LIRS had to send him letter to clear his tax filings he knows its already late....there will be fines involved. So he voluntarily submit tax filings to Lagos ahead of them issuing any summons. Our IGR in Lagos will not miss a kobo.

Why does he not do same Anambra, why wait for a letter first?

Thats what you need to face....not Tinubu.

You are a complete block head shaa

Okwute is the wisest man alive in Nigeria.
But the guy na correct aka gum...
