One thing, i will give you guys working for Obiano is that your research is second to none.


The location for the Stadium is perfect.


It should be within proximity to the International airport.


No right thinking person, will argue with that location.


However, u know some of our brothers are clannish and will rather want it in their locality rather than reason the strategic interest associated with siting it within the airport locality.

My brother let's not blame anybody apart from the Anambra international conference center awka which was started in 2015 Obiano started his legacy projects at the tail end of his administration thats why everything now is in a hurry

Your analysis makes a lot of sense. However, some of these things will not cost a lot of money if they really think a good finishing of the project is important. With less than N5 million naira, they can buy and install some screens (Not all). I do concede that it's possible that they won't do much more at the airport since they are also under pressure to deliver the ICC within the next 3 months.

Hopefully, they can do just a little such as buying two 50 inch TV screens. One screen placed in the departure lounge for showing all scheduled and arriving flights, and one placed in the waiting room upstairs for passengers to watch TV. I know they installed a satellite dish on the roof. So they obviously planned on placing TV in the passengers waiting area for passengers entertainment. They can gradually buy the remaining screens with time.

Also, the landscaping should not cost too much to achieve if they give the contract to local women farmers from the community. Just get a few Umueri women that know how to farm and give them a contract of N1 million naira to plant grass in those open areas especially around the airport taxiway, parking lot. They also need more palm trees along the airport entrance and exit roads just before the airport tollgate. These palm trees along the airport entrance and exit roads will help beautify the airport's internal roads while driving in or leaving the airport. No need to use any big company or waste money on big contracts. If they really want to help the women landscapers, they will buy chicken waste or cow dung from the various farms and ask them to use those as organic manure to treat the soil prior to planting the grass. That will ensure it grows fast at the first rains or even ask the fire trucks to discharge their water in the air around those areas to help water the grass.

If they really understand that these little things are essential, they will find cheap ways of doing them with direct labor using the Ministry of works staff and not contracts. The problem is that they may not even see the importance of these. So thinking of cheap ways to do it may not even be a priority.

It might make more sense to leave the stadium as Awka township stadium. Then develop an Olympic Anambra International Stadium in the New Airport City.

In that way, Anambra will have 2 fifa standard stadia. The cost of building a separate International stadium ot adding sitting capacity to the present one might not be too different.

Ogbuefi2020:
Obiano is just pilling up debts, Anambra domestic debts is now almost equal with Enugu while Ebonyi is now the least indebted state. I marvel when you chestbeating Bushmen keep claiming that obiano did not borrow

abuzz33:
The stadium is a FIFA GOAL project. It is a field for training and development not full capacity crowds. The state government is following a pre specified design. It is a MINI stadium. They should use the rest of the land there to build other sporting facilities like basketball courts with support of NBA Africa, Tennis courts, Boxing/wrestling gym, Volleyball, swimming to make the place a mini sports complex for sports development. A full capacity stadium can be built elsewhere.

chiefobdk2:
the way you guys hype this millennium city. I expect to see buildings.. If they can't concentrate on the landscaping and opening it up for people to build they should ease on the hype..

Ceegar01:
Obiano should have added construction of more pavilion to the contract I don't know how much it will cost him to do that, I'm not surprise no body is even proud enough to post it here on nairaland, if it was the other way round the post would have hit front page by now

As far as you have contributed to the wasting of innocent souls, posterity will judge you.

The bible made it clear that it will visit the sins of father's on their children and generation to come.

You are contributing to Terrorism and all forms of vices.

Go and collect your own share of human meat and eat.

Alu melu.

Landmack:
U be calming down

I think I get what oremii is saying. If u don’t know,oremii once said here that he used to be a strong financial contributor to the coffers of Ipob till d group started going beserk. He stopped totally. I once read that here about him. So it isn’t about the ipob nonsense.
I understand his point well.

Besides,MelesZewani...I still haven’t forgotten the nasty reply u once gave me on this thread sometimes in d past about the useless sit at home? I will revisit that when I am in d right state of mind.

And finally,so on this thread,they say you’re me and I am you? Lmao

BKayy:
Exactly. Immediately Yorubas took it from then, they maintained their Yoruba Movie trademark and never integrated it into the main stream Nollywood thus claiming ownership and maintaining their turf.

Same with the Northerners that most people think they are senseless . They maintain theirs and trademark it as Kannywood, receiving exclusive enforcement, recognition and aid for it.

It was after our kinsmen have realised that they have lost the game that they started acting funny, most of them realised that they are third choice in endorsements and awards in the movie scheme. Instead of them to shoulder their utter defeat like men and women, they are looking for a way to smuggle themselves back home and expect us to give them heroes welcome. They think we are ignorant, that we don't know their condition.
It is now obvious to their ignorant selves that there was never a Nigerian Nollywood but Igbo Nollywood

The game became obvious to them when Africa Magic launched Yoruba Channel and still use both the and new for Yoruba films with different percentage of Yoruba language in it. They begged for Igbo channel but by then it was already too late.

I swear eh, If someone else try to package that rotten Nollywoods defeat as return for us here again I will break bottle on his/her head.

MelesZenawi:
This thread is not where Ipobs come to do their usual lamentations.

It is a realistic thread for development not masturbating and lamenting.

Stop deviating the thread both of you.

BKayy:
See these ones. This is not worth celebrating because Nollywood lost her relevance the very day they left Igbo land, now when they are at the verge of being anhilated by Yoruba Movies in Lagos, they want to bring it home so that we will all share the disgrace together.

No, no, no, they should enjoy their defeat and disgrace in peace.

Ọ dị mma, a gbakwuru ndị iro mana ọ Diba njọ e bunata ya ụnọ. Ndị ara.

They think we all don't know about what they are facing in Lagos. Nonsense, they didn't learn from our musicians when they lost music to Lagos and fell for the same stupidity. If they can't fight Yoruba home movies in that Lagos that they ran to, they have no businesses in bringing their defeat home. No Apologies and accolades from this angle. Nollywood is dead.

Kudos to Obiageli Ezekwesili on her appointment to the Board of Directors of Nexford University in Washington D.C. due to her deep experience in creating sustainable value and driving strategy in the education sector. Proud to see continued examples of growing ties between the United States and Nigeria. Congratulations!
