Dear Igbos, If You Chase Away The Police, Who Will You Report To When Armed Robbers Visit?

Are you guys aware that it is the much maligned Nigerian Police Force that stands between us - the unarmed population - and gangs of heavily armed robbers?

Do you really think it is that fence around your house that is protecting you from armed robbers?

I laugh in Greek and Hindi.

Look, it is those policemen you hate. Those men that you see patrolling at night in police vans, ready to take on robbers and men of the underworld.

THEY are the ones that have been keeping you safe and alive, with your possessions intact, all these years.

Oh, the police collect 50 naira from you at the checkpoint?

Oh, so they beat up one or two people for not dashing them money?

So because of that, they should all go?

All of them?

Hahahahahahaha.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I laugh in German and Swahili.

Una go see something.

Continue driving them.

Kingdemu:
I also think so. No smart head of a parastatal will like to go on a fight with a minister as rugged and politically sophisticated as Amaechi. That was her undoing. I don't think Elrufai can outsmart Amaechi in this particular chess game unless there will be some sort of a trade off.

emeritus007:
Usman's case may be different. Unless if there's some politics in the villa against elrufai.

emeritus007:
Suspension actually.
She can be reinstated ASAP if elrufai and co press buttons for her.

Zoulyadaini:
Is the Removal of HADIZA BALA going to affect the long awaited Replacement @NPA?

OreMI22:
When I say I don't know how he does it, I mean it! I truly don't know how Obiano simultaneously sustains all these mega projects in this austere economy and still paying salaries. This is where he beats Umahi that owes workers and pensioners.

The Governing Council is the highest body in any school, they represent the Presidency and the minister of education in any school... The Rector is answerable to the governing council as stipulated in the Federal Polytechnic Act..... Before any recruitment is done in any school that has a governing council, The Rector Must have the approval of the Governing council... The Governing Council has the Constitutional powers as stipulated in the Polytechnic Act to remove the Rector if found guilty of any misappropriation.... I believe this answers your question, if you know the Chairman, He/She can give work in that school without any restrictions... CONGRATULATIONS

globemoney01:
And you are an enemy of progress, take your wailing out here and go back to facebook. I responded to you usual nonsense and instead of staying on topic you deflected to nonsense. I defend every govt, why didnt I defend peter obi govt, ewu

globemoney01:
Where did you get the nonsense that Umahi is building an airport bigger than Anambra own? By runway or what? Umahi cant even even afford to build an airport bigger than Anambra own. All he goes to inspect every time is their terminal building, where is the control tower, runway, apron, access roads, etc.

Obiano never made any noise about Anambra Airport until it reached its advance stage, he even banned the media from accessing the project but check nairaland how many times umahi has gone to inspect Ebonyi terminal and yet nothing tangible, immediately he heard of Anambra test running, he quickly rushed there for another inspection. So who is paying media agencies here?

You haters and losers should advise Umahi that Obiano is not his mate.. He should stop competing with someone that is miles above him in governance. I'm very certain that if Obiano did not build Anambra airport there would be nothing like ebonyi airport.

1. Since the test-landing of two commercial aircraft belonging to Air Peace and a corporate jet belonging to the chairman of the Anambra State Investment Promotion and Protection Agency, Ike Chioke, at Anambra International Cargo/Passenger Airport on Friday, April 30, 2021, the whole nation has been ecstatic about the incredible progress at Nigeria’s most modern airport. Apart from being the first time jet planes have ever landed in Anambra State, the airport has seized the national imagination on account of its being built up to global standards in just 15 months without a loan from any institution anywhere in the world. This is a very impressive record anywhere.

2. It is regrettable, however, that this stupendous accomplishment by the people and Government of Anambra State has not gone down well with a coterie of politically exposed persons who are determined to ruin their own state, all in the name of the gubernatorial vote in the state which will hold on November 6, 2021. The shadowy characters have alleged, for instance, that a whopping two billion dollars ($2bn) has been spent on the airport which has yet to be completed.

3. Two billion dollars ($2bn) translates to nine hundred and sixty billion naira (N960bn), almost a trillion naira (N1tr). This amount is far in excess of the combination of Anambra State budgets in almost the last 10 years. That is, the sum of current and recurrent expenditures since 2001! This is obviously taking fiction too far. It is preposterous. The peddlers of this rumour are not intelligent. The size of the 2021 budget is one hundred and forty thousand naira (N140bn), the biggest in our state’s history, while the size of the 2020 budget was one hundred and thirty seven billion naira (N137bn).

4. The budgetary provision for the airport in the 2020 budget was eight billion naira (N8 billion). And the provision in the 2021 budget is fifty million naira (N50m). The 2021 financial year is far from gone and the airport is still not completed. Therefore, the budgetary provision for this year is not yet exhausted. Even if the total amount for the airport is added to that of last year, it will come to eight billion and fifty million naira. It has to be noted that there are ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs) which are directly and indirectly involved in the airport development. The Ministry of Works, for example, is building roads and bridges, among others, leading to the airport and within the airport. It may cost about fifty million dollars ($50m) to complete the first phase of this grand airport which is in a class of its own. In other words, it is nothing near the almost one trillion naira which the political propagandists who hate Anambra State with a passion are bandying about. They will leave nothing to chance in the determination to discredit the state and ruin the homeland of Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, Dr Alex Ekwueme, Dim Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Francis Cardinal Arinze, Professor K.O. Dike, Professor Chinua Achebe, Dr Nwafor Orizu, Sir Louis Ojukwu, Olauda Equiano, Professor Chukwuemeka Ike, Professor Laz Ekwueme, Professor Ben Enweonwu, Professor Uche Okeke, Dr Arthur Nwankwo, Cyprian Ekwensi, Blessed Cyprian Michael Iwene Tansi, Professor Chike Obi, Professor Alex Animalu, Professor Ben Obumselu, Professor Emmanuel Obiechina, Mokwugo Okoye, Sir Louis Mbanefo, Professor Gordian Ezekwe, Chief Arthur Mbanefo, Professor Ben Nwabueze, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, Mrs Oby Ezekwesili, Professor Dora Akunyili, Mrs Janet Muokelu, Chief Jerome Udoji, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and many other world-class achievers.

5. The State Government has made it an article of faith to limit expenditures to budgetary provisions. The result is the humungous fiscal discipline which has enabled the state to carry out projects and programmes which, as the Joint National Assembly Committee on Aviation publicly stated during its inspection of Anambra International Cargo/Passenger Airport on March 27, 2021, even richer states like petroleum-bearing ones are unable to execute. No wonder, on August 31, 2020, BudGIT, funded by the Melinda and Bill Gates Foundation, published a report showing Anambra and petroleum-rich Rivers State have the best fiscal responsibility indices of all 36 states in Nigeria plus the Federal Capital Territory of Abuja.

6. If not for the prudent financial management of the state’s lean resources, the airport could have cost two billion dollars ($2bn). Maybe this is the amount which would have been expended on it if the project had been handled by the shadowy politicians whom the great Chinua Achebe most memorably described as “renegades who want to turn my homeland of Anambra State into a bankrupt and wretched fiefdom”.

7. The Government and people of Anambra State are delighted that the delivery of Anambra International Cargo/Passenger Airport has been attracting the attention of not just the Nigerian public or the aviation sector or the tourism industry but also leading researchers in financial management, project management and related disciplines. Governor Willie Obiano, by building a world-class international airport in 15 months and without borrowing from any financial institution, has demonstrated, once again, his solid background in banking, auditing, accounting, business management and political leadership. The airport will certainly make a rewarding study in prudent management of resources.

God bless Anambra State, the Light of the Nation.

Teeeecash:
this my guy sha know want give up

Keep pushing, one day she go reply or quote you back

Igboid:
What did Ika do during the war? Rushed to deny any link with Igbos like cowards you are to spare yourselves of the Asaba treatment at the hands of trigger happy Nigerian military?

Not that your Igbo denial helped you in Bini town when the Bini people went about pointing out all Anioma people house to house for Nigerian soldiers to use as target practice when Benin city fell to the federal troops.

Like I told you, your are irrelevant and expendable.

custainmowole:
Are you angry that Obiano's supporters are here, why not open your own thread with your own lying supporters to do your own there. It doesn't cost a dime to create thread on nairaland.

Yes, Obiano has done so well in Awka north and more especially in Awka south where 3 gleaming beautiful flyovers are sited. Obiano has equally done beautiful roads in Awka like the EBS Boulevard, Esther Obiakor both dualcarriage roads among many other roads.

Oh you are giving him credit on the airport and ICC, I thought he didn't even do anything at all. Ndi ala everywhere

Even in the U.S where I reside many government buildings are constructed with steel and woods. Stop being half exposed for a second. The terminal can always be redone. The Bush intercontinental airport as we know it today was what it was when it was built in 1969. They have expanded the terminal and added more features and beautification. Anambra has too many sectors pressing for infrastructures and we can dump all our funds in a single project just to impress you.

Now , can Obiano do better than what he has achieved so far ? Of course, yes, but he is out of time. So , let's count our losses and face the next guy. Personally, I don't think Obiano achieved anything worth jubilating.

There are still sand dunes on our roads.
The Awka bridges look mediocre.
Anambra still look like a desert filled with 4 storey buildings , no trees , no grasses and no green environment. Yet he lives in one of the most lush neighborhood in Houston , The expensive Woodlands.

Obiano , obviously failed on many aspects but let's move on.

agborchick:
Please does anyone has any idea on the stage of recruitment/replacement in those institutions highlighted above, especially Akanu Ibiam Federal Polytechnic, Unwana, Ebonyi State? When are they likely going to issue APLs? Thanks

Belafonte:
Mr. Ebijimi7, you know what you are? You are an office. A mumu man

You left your project site to be building a woman's life. She has no family that can pay the fees for her? If you didn't give her that money she wouldn't go to school? Are you the one that has been paying from the day she got admission?

And then you have her 80k to complete and make 150k and you still have her 40k again. Baba o. Tuale

ebijimi7:
Good day guys, please before I proceed why on the reason why I'm creating this thread I want you to know that there might be typos and please don't mind my grammar also no insult too please.
Ok here we go.
I am a young guy I broke up with my ex almost 3 years now so I moved on with another girl that I believed was better than my ex, when we started everything was going smoothly and sweet until she started showing up some attitude of lack of understanding fast forward to what happened .
My gf wanted to pay her school fee she raised some fund but wasn't enough for the fee so I decided to assist her actualize what she wanted she wanted to pay 150k for school fee she was able to raise 70k so I added 80k for her to pay up and thats just 70% of the school fee we all know how hard the country is after paying that money I became broke because the money I though I could use to manage myself wasn't available because I was having issues with omo onile on my site so I had to settle them and take care of the fencing so I had 40k with me so that was what I was planning to manage till the end of the month. My gf knowing well that I'm broke after paying her fee started asking me for money for hair after all that has happened so I told her to relax and wait I'm broke I want to manage what I have on me till next month then we can find a solution, she now volunteered to borrow me I told her no I don't want because the last one I borrowed from you you insulted me because I couldn't pay on time then she started acting up telling me everybody in her department was complaining she isn't making her hair this that I ignored all her talk later she did the hair her self and I didn't bother asking her where she got the money...
So fast forward to today being her birthday she is in school writing exam so she is doing her bitlrthday in school
Now before she was allowed to write this exam I paid another 40k to add to her school fee so she can be allowed to write her exam.
Now she was now telling me that she wants something from me for her bitlrthday I told her I'm broke ooo because I can't just leave my building project like that birthday comes and go we can celebrate some other time. That was how my gf started acting up the next thing she said was that what have I ever giving her ever since we have been dating that even her bitmrthday that passed I didn't do anything j just laughed I told her I didn't do anything right its now that I won't do anything again I would ignore you to the core you would come back that you want to pay school fee now I would wait here for you no problem

I believe everyone following this thread is entitle to his/her own views and opinion. I am not the only person that objected that information.
Notwithstanding, on that faithful day I acknowledged the info. That unizik and Umunze is recruiting because its confirmed.. I don't even know why the nigga is pissed and ranting like a mad dog. Young man calm down and look for the solution to your problem because obviously I am not.
This behavior is the reason why many with useful information here will always be mute.

Please on an important note, I said that Fed Poly Oko at the Moment is not recruiting because I made my inquiries and I know the system, if you say I am deceiving you sorry because you have a deluded cognitive probably the reason why you can't comprehend between facts.. I believe its because this forum is faceless that's why you can widely open your gutter and talk rubbish. Bro channel your frustration and bad energy on something else..

talk2comrado:
