ANSMEDIA:Soludo has done a remarkable job in upgrading roads across Anambra State. It is obvious to everyone that he is strategically transforming the state’s infrastructure by dualizing major roads and improving connectivity between key cities and communities. These developments have made transportation easier, safer, and more efficient for residents and businesses alike. Unfortunately, many of these newly expanded highways are now being turned into parking lots by heavy-duty trucks, lorries, and tippers. This abuse defeats the very purpose for which the roads were constructed and expanded. Roads that were meant to ease traffic flow and improve movement are gradually becoming congested and unsafe because of indiscriminate parking by truck drivers. The state government must therefore establish a dedicated task force to enforce strict regulations against parking on major highways. Any truck or lorry found parked on these roads should be immediately impounded and towed away, while the owners should pay a minimum fine of ₦200,000 before their vehicles are released. This practice is not unique to Anambra. In many developed countries and even in several Nigerian states, parking on highways attracts heavy fines because it poses serious safety risks and obstructs traffic flow. For example, in civilized environments, trucks illegally parked on highways are quickly towed and operators face substantial penalties. These fines also serve as a source of revenue that governments use to maintain roads and traffic infrastructure. Anambra State should adopt a similarly strict approach. If the government fails to act decisively, the benefits of these expensive road expansion projects will continue to be undermined by reckless parking habits. The people of the state deserve to fully enjoy the advantages of these modern highways without truck and tipper drivers turning them into permanent parking spaces. 3 Likes |

Congratulations to Ndi Enugu and His Excellency Dr. Peter Mbah on the visionary plan of Enugu Air. As we know, Akanu Ibiam International Airport (Enugu) is the only international airport in Nigeria currently served by just one carrier, Ethiopian Airlines. That limited service means the airport is underutilized and lags behind the other four major international airports in Nigeria. With the launch of Enugu Air, we have a real opportunity to change that. I propose forming a partnership with a European airline via a codeshare or interline agreement (E.g, ITA Airways (Italy), operates out of Rome–Fiumicino (FCO), which is a strategically located hub; ITA has codeshare agreements with several airlines) or Swiss International Air Lines, which could provide connections via Zurich. It also maintains codeshare relationships with many global carriers. Here's how it could work: Outbound (Nigeria → Europe): Nigerian passengers fly Enugu → European hub airport on Enugu Air. From that European hub, they connect onward to other destinations in Europe, North America, Asia, etc., using the partner airline’s network. Inbound (to Enugu): Returning passengers fly from their origin to the European hub with the European partner, and then transfer to Enugu Air for the final leg into Enugu. This model would make travel into and out of Enugu smoother, more attractive, and more convenient. It also aligns with the state’s broader goals: boosting internally generated revenue (IGR), promoting tourism, attracting investment, and positioning Enugu as a tech hub. Securing a strong European partner should be a priority as you scale Enugu Air, and as you consider future expansion to other African regional capitals. 6 Likes

Cementing Imo State as A Premier Tourist Destination: A Case for Transforming Oguta Lake Through Partnership with Landmark Group Tourism is a powerful tool for economic growth, cultural exchange, and job creation. Imo State is blessed with natural attractions, and Oguta Lake stands out as one of its most valuable assets. However, despite its beauty and potential, Oguta Lake and its golf course have remained largely underdeveloped and underutilized. To unlock its full potential, the Imo State government should consider partnering with experienced private investors like the owners of Landmark Beach and Hotel, who have a proven track record in tourism and hospitality development. Landmark Group has successfully turned a portion of Lagos coastline into a thriving tourist destination with Landmark Beach, attracting both local and international visitors. Their expertise in creating world-class leisure spaces, combining entertainment, relaxation, and hospitality, makes them ideal partners. A similar transformation can be applied to Oguta Lake, turning it into the leading tourist hub of Southeastern Nigeria and beyond. A public-private partnership (PPP) would ensure that Oguta Lake is developed with global standards in mind. This would include modern infrastructure, eco-friendly resort facilities, water sports, cultural centres, and enhanced security. The Oguta golf course, which already offers scenic views, could be redesigned and managed as a premium destination for local and international golf tournaments. These upgrades would attract tourists, investors, and international events, creating long-term economic benefits for the state. Beyond economic growth, such a partnership would generate employment for thousands of youths in the area—from construction workers to hotel staff, tour guides, artisans, and entertainers. It would also boost small and medium enterprises (SMEs) around the lake, including food vendors, craft makers, and transport providers. With proper planning and community involvement, the project would not only preserve the environment but also improve the standard of living for the people of Oguta and surrounding communities. The cultural and historical significance of Oguta Lake—being the largest natural lake in Southeastern Nigeria—can also be leveraged. The Landmark Group has shown the capacity to integrate local culture into modern tourism experiences, which can help preserve Igbo traditions while exposing them to the world. This would also position Imo State as a key cultural destination in Nigeria. Partnering with the owners of Landmark Beach and Hotel presents a unique opportunity for Imo State to revitalize Oguta Lake and its golf course into a world-class tourist destination. With the right investment, planning, and execution, this partnership could turn Oguta into a pride of Nigeria’s tourism industry and a major contributor to Imo State’s economy.

A New Dawn in Southeast Nigeria: From Neglect to Quality Development In recent years, a significant change has taken place in the governance and development approach of Southeast Nigeria. The governors of the region are now embracing a new mindset, one that prioritizes quality, aesthetics, and lasting impact in public infrastructure. Unlike in the past, when many projects in the Southeast were poorly executed and far below the standards seen in other parts of the country, today’s projects are beginning to reflect modern standards and a vision of excellence. Previously, public buildings, roads, and facilities in the Southeast were often constructed with a "village standard" mentality—shoddy workmanship, poor planning, and a lack of attention to beauty or long-term use. This led to infrastructure that not only looked inferior but also did not serve the people effectively. Many citizens felt that their region was being shortchanged, especially when they compared their facilities to those in other parts of Nigeria. However, the Southeast governors are now proving that the region can deliver world-class projects too. I would rate Gov. Peter Ndubuisi Mbah, Gov. Alex Otii and Prof. Charles Soludo as the new visionary leaders of the region who have clearly departed from the old mentality of our leaders that anything in the southeast should be sub-standard. We now see government buildings with proper designs, dual-carriage roads built to last, and public spaces thoughtfully planned and landscaped. Landscaping, in particular, has become a noticeable new trend. Green spaces, flowers, street lighting, and decorative features are being used to beautify cities and towns, adding a sense of pride and modernity to the environment. This positive shift shows that the leaders of the Southeast are starting to see infrastructure not just as a necessity but as a reflection of identity and ambition. By building quality projects and making cities beautiful, they are sending a message: the Southeast deserves the best, just like any other part of Nigeria. If this new direction continues, it will not only improve daily life for residents but also attract investment, tourism, and greater respect for the region. The governors are finally showing that development in the Southeast can be both functional and beautiful—and that is a change worth celebrating. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl6-Hu4yqSs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IsScBfV4oA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1HRf2YChBs 1 Like |

ANSMEDIA:This is so beautiful! I am surprised that the usual gang of 'why open drainages' has not invaded here to wail ignorantly about the open drainage systems we currently have in Nigeria. I currently reside in the United States, but I spent many years living in Europe. Many of those criticizing Nigeria's open-ditch drainage system clearly have no understanding of why it exists or how it works. Let’s be clear: Nigeria is not yet at the stage of development where underground drainage systems are feasible or sustainable. The closed drainage systems in the U.S. and Europe that people often refer to are large underground pipes that connect to even larger underground drainage networks. These systems are part of complex infrastructure networks designed to handle water flow, maintenance, and desilting. Nigeria simply does not have that level of infrastructure, just as we lack comprehensive underground sewage systems for our cities. So when we cover open gutters without building a proper underground system to connect and maintain them, the drainage still fails. There’s nowhere for the water to go, and no system in place to clean or maintain those blocked drains. Take a look at the Onitsha–Owerri expressway, especially around Roadmaster Industries and Mgbemena Street. All the covered drains there are blocked, and there’s no way to desilt them. This leads to frequent road failures, as floodwaters from Awada now run directly on the road surface because the gutters are clogged and ineffective. Please, our people should stop re-echoing opinions from those who merely speak without understanding the complexities of the situation. This is not just about covering gutters; it requires an entire support system of underground infrastructure that allows water to drain properly and pipes to be cleaned when blocked. Tomorrow, we’ll likely hear people arguing against the use of soakaways in Nigerian homes simply because “they don’t have soakaways abroad.” But they fail to realize that homes in developed countries are connected to underground sewer systems, a completely different system from street gutters. Now, some are even advocating that we drain sewage directly into gutters in front of homes, all to blindly copy foreign systems without understanding the infrastructure that supports them. If we want to adopt foreign practices, we must first invest in the proper infrastructure to support them. Until then, open drainage systems, while not ideal, are the only option that can function effectively within the current limitations of proper city infrastructure we desperately lack. 5 Likes |

The Proposed 80-Year Concession of Enugu International Airport: A Call for Urgent Action! The recent announcement by the Tinubu administration to concession the Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu for 80 years is deeply troubling and should raise serious concerns among the people of Enugu and the entire Igbo community. To begin with, Akanu Ibiam International airport, Enugu, is one of only five international airports in Nigeria. Yet, unlike the others, it has been limited to just one international airline, while the remaining four enjoy access to at least three or more. This restriction is both unjust and discriminatory. Furthermore, the international terminal buildings at the other four airports have long been completed and are fully operational. Enugu’s terminal building, on the other hand, remains unfinished and non-functional, despite starting at the same time with those at the other four airports. It is worth recalling that two years ago, the federal government announced plans to concession all international airports in Nigeria. However, during the actual execution of this policy, Enugu was suspiciously excluded, while the other four proceeded without delay. In another instance of clear neglect, the Enugu airport was shut down for over three years to resurface a 3-kilometer runway—a task that typically takes no more than three months in other airports. Now, the Tinubu government has introduced yet another questionable move: proposing to concession the Enugu airport to an undisclosed international aviation company for an unprecedented 80 years!!! This stands in sharp contrast to the other airports, which were concessioned to reputable international firms for a much more reasonable period of 20 years. These repeated actions suggest a deliberate strategy to undermine development in the Southeast, using the only international airport in the region as a tool to achieve that aim. It is important to emphasize that such actions have continued to succeed largely due to the silence and inaction of the people of the region. It is time for political leaders, civil society, and especially the youth from the Southeast to speak out boldly against this latest move. We must reject this blatant marginalization and insist that the Akanu Ibiam International Airport be treated with the same respect, investment, and fairness as other international airports across the country. The Southeast deserves equitable infrastructure and opportunities, and the airport is a vital part of that future. Let it be clear: we cannot build a united Nigeria while deliberately stifling one of its regions. We call on the Federal Government to reverse this unjust proposal and ensure that the Southeast is given its rightful place in the nation’s development. 4 Likes

I often hear fraudsters and other shady individuals claiming, "Soludo isn't doing anything except going after native doctors!" However, the growing evidence proves otherwise—Soludo is committed to transforming Anambra into a destination where people want to arrive, not a place they can’t wait to leave. His actions are focused on attracting tourists and investors while ensuring their safety by cracking down on criminals and their enablers such as dibias and fake prophets. Additionally, he is working to keep the state clean, eliminating the sight of decaying animal carcasses at every street corner, streams, and public squares placed as 'sacrifices" by these dibias and fake prophets.

This harmful agenda has been used to fuel division and hatred among us, but we must call it out and reject it. We are one people. Our strength lies in our unity, and we must look beyond tribal and religious differences to build a Nigeria where everyone can thrive. If we stand together, there is no limit to what we can achieve.

IGBOPROMISE1:The sad thing is that the Fulani always wanted to perpetrate all sorts of atrocities, robberies and kidnappings in Igboland. That is why they despised ESN. The tragedy of it all was that our people became complacent and allowed criminals recruited by the enemies of Ndigbo to infiltrate pro-Biafra agitation to discredit the struggle and prevent it from gaining the support of Ndigbo. Thus, ultimately the Fualni created doubts among our people if ESN deserved our support or not, to ensure that their Fulani foot soldiers and criminals will have unchallenged access to our forests for their nefarious agenda against Igboland. Sadly, in life if you do not pay attention to the schemes of your enemy, you will pay the price for your complacency. 1 Like |

Profit-seeking must always be weighed against the risk of losing everything. It is called "common-sense"! Some Igbo people who refuse to heed wisdom will inevitably learn the hard way. This mindset tends to be more prevalent among Igbo individuals born and raised in Lagos, who have never visited their ancestral region.

Stolen:My brother, don’t stress too much about the lack of strategic foresight among the Igbo people. While the Igbo are undeniably blessed with industriousness, they often lack the strategic acumen needed to safeguard wealth and ensure its continuity across generations. This has always been our greatest weakness. This shortcoming didn’t start today. For example, General Ironsi was advised against relying on northerners for his personal security and placing them in sensitive command positions. However, he dismissed the warnings, arguing—like a typical Igbo person overly confident in their reasoning—that since Nzeogwu and others led the first coup, the northerners could not plot coups and would never stage one against him. Tragically, his blind and reckless decisions not only led to his downfall but also ensured that the Igbo would lose access to power, eventually contributing to the civil war. So, don’t worry about the short-sightedness of some Igbos who fail to grasp the bigger strategic picture. It seems inherent to work hard and succeed temporarily but to fall short in building the long-term prosperity that comes from strategic thinking. It's also exactly the same reason that SE governors cannot come together to build a railway system (Even if it's a light railsystem for transportation and light goods) connecting the major cities and airports in the region to the Onne Port to enhance the economic viability of the entire zone. Instead, the SE governors oppose eachother and merely think that by just tarring or dualizing a road from one village to the other they will overcome the huge economic disadvantages imposed by Nigeria on the zone by denying them good federal roads, seaports and intl. airport. The gross lack of strategic reasoning among Igbos who cannot see that we MUST work together to achieve the greater future jointly is our greatest downfall 5 Likes 2 Shares

I would like to advise the Enugu State Government to consider Embraer 145 (E145) jets as the foundational aircraft for Enugu Air. These jets are renowned for their fuel efficiency and low maintenance costs, making them ideal for a startup airline. With a seating capacity of 50 passengers, the E145 strikes the perfect balance between capacity and operational profitability, ensuring flights are less likely to be underbooked. The success of United Nigeria Airlines can be partly attributed to their strategic decision to enter the market with Embraer 145 jets. These aircraft are well-suited for short to medium-haul routes, allowing airlines to maximize efficiency while keeping costs low. Additionally, the compact size of the E145 makes it easier to access smaller airports, further expanding route options and connectivity. At this stage, it would be unwise for Enugu Air to invest in larger aircraft like Boeing or Airbus, which are not only significantly more expensive to operate but also require a larger customer base to break even. Starting with the E145 jets will allow Enugu Air to establish itself, build a loyal client base, and grow sustainably before scaling operations to accommodate larger aircraft. This pragmatic approach will set Enugu Air on the path to long-term success. 7 Likes 1 Share

IGBOPROMISE1:Dr. Peter Mbah stands out as one of the most progressive and visionary governors in Nigeria today. His determination to transform Enugu into a world-class city is unmatched, setting a high standard for leadership and development. Unlike many Nigerian governors who often make lofty promises without follow-through, Dr. Mbah is quietly achieving results through deliberate and impactful action. One of his remarkable initiatives is his effort to position Enugu as the true conference capital of Africa—not just through rhetoric, but by establishing high-quality international hotels and state-of-the-art conference centers. Beyond this, he is revitalizing the tourism sector by creating vibrant attractions and recreational hubs that make Enugu an appealing destination for visitors. To enhance accessibility for both local and international tourists, Dr. Mbah has actively supported the modernization of Akanu Ibiam International Airport, ensuring it meets global standards. He has also gone a step further by launching "Enugu Air," the state’s airline. With the right technical partnerships, this airline could soon serve international routes directly from Enugu, making the state even more accessible to global travelers and boosting its economic potential. What sets Dr. Mbah apart is his commitment to delivering projects of the highest international quality, a refreshing departure from the substandard, poorly executed projects that have plagued many Nigerian states. His attention to detail and insistence on excellence are reshaping Enugu's infrastructure and laying the foundation for a modern, thriving city. I am deeply impressed by Dr. Mbah’s vision and relentless drive to midwife the birth of a truly world-class Enugu. His leadership gives hope for a brighter future, and I am excited to see how his transformative efforts continue to unfold.

Leaders urging unity in a nation plagued by unaddressed injustices shamefully expose their hypocrisy. Unity, as a principle, thrives on mutual respect, fairness, and the assurance of justice. When leaders fail to speak up against the glaring inequities suffered by their fellow countrymen, their appeals for unity ring hollow. How can unity be achieved in a system where some citizens face systemic oppression, and the cries for fairness are met with silence? Injustice divides; it fosters resentment and alienation. A leader’s inaction in the face of injustice undermines their credibility and sows seeds of discontent. People begin to question: If those at the helm cannot defend the rights of their people or speak out against wrongdoing, who will? Calls for unity, absent of justice, become a façade for maintaining the status quo. True unity cannot exist in a vacuum of inequality. Leaders must understand that addressing injustice is not just a moral obligation but a pragmatic solution. When citizens see fairness, equity, and a commitment to their well-being, the allure of disintegration diminishes. Justice unites; it builds trust and fosters a collective sense of belonging. If leaders truly want a united nation, they must demonstrate courage and integrity by standing against injustice. Only then will their calls for unity carry weight and inspire genuine national cohesion. Without this, unity remains an empty slogan, disconnected from the reality of those they seek to lead. 3 Likes |

Pentagon007:In many developing countries, including Nigeria, open drainage channels work better than closed ones. Drainage channels are like big gutters on the sides of roads. They carry away rainwater to keep roads from flooding. Open drainage channels are left uncovered, so you can see inside, while closed drainage channels are covered up, like pipes. People on social media sometimes make jokes about open drainage channels, saying they look bad. But they can actually be very helpful! For example, in places like Lagos, when they tried building closed drainage channels a long time ago, they all ended up getting clogged. These channels got blocked because sand, trash, and other things kept piling up in them. Without a way to clean them, water couldn’t flow properly, and it just created more problems. Go to Onitsha-Owerri road at nwa Aziki junction and see how the closed drainage channels built by CCC have been blocked with no way of getting inside to desilt it. The result is that every rainy season, that area collapses due to heavy flood on the roads. One of the big issues is that many roads in these areas aren’t paved, so sand and dirt from these roads get washed into the drains. Plus, some people still throw trash on the streets, which clogs the drains too. In countries like America, people don’t throw trash on the streets, so closed drainage works better there. But in places where trash and sand can easily get into the drains, open drainage channels make it easier to clean them out and keep water flowing. In short, open drainage channels help us deal with the trash and dirt that often end up in the drains, so we can keep the water moving and prevent floods more easily! 4 Likes |
