The Niger Delta Development Commission is a Federal Government agency established by Nigerian president, Olusegun Obasanjo in the year 2000 with the sole mandate of developing the oil-rich Niger Delta region of southern Nigeria. In September 2008, President Umaru Yar'Adua announced the formation of a Niger Delta Ministry, with the Niger Delta Development Commission to become a parastatal under the ministry

you see why people call you apc rats illiterates like I said Ameachi would be faced with this facts soon.you and your mates can keep jumping from thread to thread spreading propaganda.since you don't even know that Nddc is an agency under a federal ministry their is no point wasting my time with you and your other rats

Oga, its obvious you don't even know the answer to the question you asked me. yes its a FG parastatal but its not funded solely by the FG. please do some research or call up some of your knowledgeable friends.

karlmax2:
a simple question for you and your bitter mates who funds nddc?

the FG, the various niger delta states and the oil companies ALL FUND NDDC.
now please tell the good people of nairaland what percentage of funding the FG has in NDDC..... go on,educate us.

governors are doing mega projects..
fashola-lekki-ikoyi link bridge,lagos light rail,lagos-badagty
amaechi-400+ health centers,700+ primary schools,ogoni-andoni-opobo unity road,okirika ring road, scholarships for rivers indigenes to study abroad,songhai farms
akpabio- mega stadium,international airport,numerous roads

GEJ/FG- 6 classroom blocks in PH........laughable! ...even the useless rupokwu market built by the crooked obio akpor chairman trumps this anyday...

karlmax2:
a simple question for you and your bitter mates who funds nddc?

Are these real or paper projects? Tanker drivers went on strike and yet the road in question is listed here as a project. Is it that AMAECHI paid the tanker drivers to go on strike or the road is simply a death trap?

please answer the above question by otokz. explain to the good people of nairaland how a road over which tanker drivers went on strike in PH a few weeks ago is on your list as a completed FG project...

go on ......make a fool of jonathan some more. its entertaining!!!

karlmax2:
And lets not forget the
Federal Polytechnic Of Oil, Gas resently Established In Rivers by the fg

Those living in river state can go and verify all what is on this list.ameachi can only decieve the gullable not those that knows whats going on in rivers state. Wait till jona starts his campaign ameachi would be faced with all these facts

do you live in PH?? you dont!!! stop spreading lies. are you this shameless? posting a long list ripped of from most probably the NDDC website..

in a desperate bid to save the dunce,you are further disgracing him.

shameless people........i nearly threw up my guts laughing at this list by a grossly corrupt FG institution.

you are listing 6 model classroom blocks as FG projects?? projects that should be carried out by villages and hamlets if this country was sane.

this list just embarrases your oga at the top even more...
what a shame!! most of those NDDC roads listed up there didnt even last 6 months before they failed.

list something tangible GEJ has done in rivers state and stop makinga fool of him...

....yet the governor of this failed state was given an award by no other person than the joke at the top.
GEJ,frolicking with useless people,from orji to sheriff to alamieyeseigha........

..........and he wants ME to give him my vote in 2015 BECAUSE his village is just a stonethrow away from mine and we both bow infront of the cross on sundays. clowns!!

ssii:
And the gullible Rivers people still want to vote their "brother" who does not give a damn about them.

very sad indeed! in 2015 rivers people would decide if they want progress or want a state filled with cultists and no development.

choice is theirs!!!

adonis89:
. Wat has he done 4d ppl of ogubolo and okrika,engene,abua,kalabari,elele?

okirika ring road
bolo bridge
airport to imo boundary(which happens to be jonathans responsibility)

Abagworo:
He made a challenge for Jonathan and his people to mention one completed project in Rivers State and truly there is none.

go and look at FGGC abuloma and FGC portharcourt. rotting away while jonathan and wike play politics.

NO SINGLE FG PROJECT IN RIVERS... if you are waiting for a list,forget it! look at the low quality east-west road! a 3lane highway(and i dont mean 3 lanes on each side. i mean 1 and half lanes on each side,honestly) with poor drainage...

.....and the search for GEJs projects in rivers state continues.......

Daresh:
And people like you dont know that we have other options besides old men who should be carrying their grandchildren. What exactly did they leave behind that they are so eager to go back to? I have my own opinion and don't need to follow anyone elses. Atiku and Buhari have nothing new to offer just the same old bullshit. Buhari will probably try to make us an Islamic state. And FYI, my opinion is mine, my vote is mine.

@the bolded.....let me guess.....mummy told you so abi?? you see why someone was asking how old you are.

Toktee:
Guy what you said iz true,but how do you feel if what belong to ur people is taken away frm you by force for another state?
How do u feel if an unelected woman decide disrespect ur office and even used federal might in attempt to remove u frm office.
Ameachi asked the federal govt to name the projects execute in rivers under jonathan,is a vry simple thng,let them pruf him wrong if indeed they have done anythng in river state..

i agree. we all know that GEJ is a confirmed f***kup! i just want amaechi relax small.

even though amaechi is my man any day,I think he should comport himself,and tone down the jibes thrown at GEJ.
he talks carelessly and crudely.
fashola or the other APC governors do not do that. buhari does not even though he should be the one talking that way.
let him calm down for tomorrows sake. this life is far bigger than politics.

Grimm 4

how to get away with murder...

trying to get which attention? a governor that is already leaving office. a good dose of truth is what we need as Nigerians.

Johnnyessence:
Amaechi slams GEJ ' S use of ethnic
sentiments in South South Nigeria.
Amaechi: He (Goodluck Jonathan) says he is
your brother and the "Hausaman" is your
enemy. Who built PH refinery? Tafawa Balewa.
Who built Eleme Petrochemicals in PH? IBB and
Abacha.
Who built Warri refinery? Shagari.
Who built Bonny LNG? IBB.
Who established Niger Delta Ministry?
Yar'adua.What has he (Jonathan) done for you?
The crowd answered "Nothing".
Tell me one original project "Nothing". No, tell
me even half. Rotimi Amaechi Governor of
Rivers State Nigeria

epic!!!! .........amaechi....blunt man! ....

make i repeat am......amaechi is second ONLY to fashola......and even that, is DEBATABLE!

honeric01:
A trait from uneducated /uncivilized people

exactly!!!!
....forgetting that the only military regime during which this contry had a semblance of sanity and discipline was during buharis. a regime where we ACTUALLY SAW THE BODY LANGUAGE AND ACTIONS of a head of state serious about curbing corruption but unfortunately,in nigeria,his tribe and religion makes nonsense of all that.

majekdom2:
and so what are we talking and people want to vote in a thug that destroys government properties , now those projects are done , if a credible person takes over , he begins another and completes the ones almost done ... is that not development , with time wont we have what we want to ... everything cannot be done in a day . the federal govt should also list their achievements , we will vote them if they deserve it . we keep hearinf and watching economic forums yet no jobs , we hear of pib creating jobs and still nothing . we just keep hearing , we not seeing all in the name of a south south president .....

The federal Government a few weeks ago rushed to rivers state to RENOVATE some model secondary schools in the state while their FGGC abuloma and FGC PH schools are rotting away. ridiculous isnt it?? the bonny-bodo road has not been delivered in the 4th year of a jonathan presidency.can you imagine in this age and time people still travel to bonny by sea wher the FGs own cash cow,the LNG is sited shameful.
abagworo threw a challenge.......SHOW US ONE FEDERAL ROAD COMPLETED BY THE CLOWN IN THE South East. just 1 road or....okay 1/2 a road at least....

look at what a sitting governor has done in 8 years.... opened up 3 new LCDAs to the rest of the state!!! the same thing was planned for kalabariland through the transkalabari highway which was killed by corruption a.k.a rivers money for rivers people ** thank God amaechi came to his senses and realized that being clannish takes his state or anyone for that matter no where**

boss....no worry your self too much. just get a voters card! we will be there live and direct in 2015 to protect our votes.

Abagworo:
There's nothing you and your likes can write to cover the truth. I've thought deeply and realized that there is no single completed federal road in the entire Southeast and South-South under Jonathan's watch. If there is any please list them. On the other hand the rally was held at a Stadium completed by Amaechi. Even the Airport has not been completed till date. It is such a shame that you could shy away from this simple truth just because of regionalism.

Now let me list few things completed by Amaechi

Over 350 public schools of unequalled standard.

Over 140 health centres.

Olu Obasanjo road complete with underground drainage

Stadium road complete with underground drainage

Port-Harcourt/Owerri expressway complete with underground drainage at every settlement and streetlights to Imo boundary.

Rumuola road complete with underground drainage

NTA road to Choba complete with underground drainage

Ada George road complete with underground drainage

Elekahia road complete with underground drainage

Oginigba/Slaughter road complete with underground drainage

otokx:
Let PDP field WIKE then you will know the real owners of Rivers State.

you dey mind the jokers?? even in rumuolumeni, how many ikwerre communities are behind wike?

PDP use clear eye wan field wike as their candidate. they are done for in rivers state if that happens.

the APC rally was crazy. the stadium was filled to the brim.

kel.....me i don talk my own..... make rivers youth shine eye. make dem no lose focus of whats really at stake here-good governance!!!!

let every rivers youth look inward and ask himself this vital question.....can wike really take this state forward?

what are wikes antecedents? he was LG chairman in obio/akpor. what did he do what legacy did he leave behind??
these are questions i expect every sensible rivers man/woman to ask.

okay,wike becomes governor. what next?? does it end there or are rivers people comfortable with 8 years of sharing money to individual families or groups in ikwerre land,kalabari/okirikaland and ogoniland?

what do rivers people want exactly??

you are quick to criticise a governor whose state is littered with uncompleted projects while looking the other way when a sitting president asks for a billion dollars to buy arms.

what stops jonathan from using that sum to fund his partys nationwide rigging next year what happened to the defence budget for this year??how much is it sef nobody cares because jonathan is "our brother" abi?

15million dollars was flown to south africa. till date,no probe. they say its for buying arms and my southern people believe it hook line and sinker because he is our "brother"

diezani is trying hard to squash her probe in the nat. assembly yet we are all carrying on as if nothing is happening.

unfortunately,its the rivers indigenes who want to kill amaechi. its the same rivers indigenes who cant identify good governance even when its in front of them.
its the non-indigenes in rivers state who appreciate amaechi and know he is trying to give his best.

i am not saying hes a saint BUT hes one our best currently. fact!!
i can accuse amaechi of many things but playing to the gallery is not one of them.

i am in rivers state and i can attest to the fact that there are indeed uncompleted projects all over the state and these projects are suffering from poor funding.

on nigeriainfo fm a few weeks ago,the governor admitted the state was cash strapped.he was finding it very difficult to pay salaries BECAUSE federal allocation had reduced drastically(to about 12billion/month)so he managed to make up from his 10billion/month IGR to do that.as a result ,projects have stalled and for those of you who live in PH,you can all attest to the fact that amaechis projects ON A GOOD DAY,are completed quite rapidly.

the woji elelenwo link road/bridge needs to be completed. i dont know how much its budget is,but from what ive seen going on at the site,that project is bloody expensive.
iwofe road(being constructed by MCC) is also moving on slowly
the andoni-opobo unity road is probably the most ambitious road project taken on by a state governor.very few roads (e.g lagos-badagry by LSG and maybe the delta to akwaibom segment of the east-west road )in nigeria would dwarf its magnitude and cost

those of us unbiased citizens who live in PH know that amaechi has taken on ambitious and costly projects which he is struggling to complete.

pendy79:
Here lies a woman who had a money laundering case whilst she was the wife of the deputy governor and later governor of Bayelsa state handing over a candidate to the only politician in the whole world (at least that I know of) who has a court injunction that restrains any legal entity from scrutinizing his 8years misrule of Rivers state.

The long and short of this is that any attempt by.rivers people to vote wike if he gets the ticket anyway will spell doom for the oil rich state. It is really a pity that weve allowed ourselves to be recolonized by heartless and soulles politicians who have no desire to deliver any dividend of democratic rule to the people but enrich themselves and their cliques.

Imagine wike needing to make all these people in the entourage of the first lady happy if he's elected governor? Thank God I'm not a riverian cos the state allocation no go even reach Abuja toll gate before he finish

the bolded wan kill me with laugh...

i hope rivers people will vote right next year. if they vote in wike,anything dem see make dem tak am like that..
imagine this woman "handing over" wike to odili, a man who stole rivers blind and is being protected by his equally corrupt wife at the supreme court.... .
its a pity.
my advice to rivers youths would be to take wikes money,enjoy it to the fullest and then turn around and vote a responsible,sane leader.

if the PDP in rivers state has an iota of respect for their party,they better look inwards and pick princewill or even sekibo.
i will take george sekibo over wike anyday!!

THEY claimed he wasnt saving anything. what wike and his cohorts want is to have a field day plundering the Rivers savings.
Amaechi made it impossible for him. This is why wike has sworn that we will not sleep with both eyes closed in rivers state.... ...bunchajokers

MR Josiah Olu, Chairman, Finance Committee of Rivers House of Assembly, on Tuesday said that the House had approved N19 billion from reserved funds for Gov. Amaechi to complete ongoing projects.

[b]Olu, (APC-Eleme), told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Port Harcourt that the Assembly, had earlier in the year, approved N30 billion for Amaechi from government’s reserved funds.

He said the financial situation of the country had made it impossible for states to meet their financial obligations.

"What the states get from the centre has dwindled drastically and it’s been quite difficult for states to pay salaries and meet contractual obligations.

Gov. Amaechi had initiated compulsory monthly savings of N1 billion for the state reserve funds which the Assembly passed into law.

"Luckily for us, that’s what we have been able to fall back on to cushion the effect of harsh conditions we find ourselves,’’ he said.

The committee chairman said the state did not borrow the N19 billion, but accessed its savings in the reserved funds to complete ongoing projects.

He said that Amaechi had approached the House to amend the law on the reserved funds to enable government access it to cushion effects of the short fall in revenue from the federation account.[/b]

Olu said the House amended the law which enabled government to access funds from the monthly compulsory savings. (NAN)

SHUT UP AND SAY WHAT YOU KNOW WITHOUT SENTIMENTS.

Do you know that the internal generated revenue of Rivers state as of February, 2014 was 9.5 billion naira while their January - June, 2014 Federal allocation was 99.67 billion naira. The recent Federal allocation to Rivers state was 24 billion naira. Compared it to other states and make sound judgment. Rivers state would only realized that they've lost a smart thief when he stepped down as governor or if a prudent governor comes in (certainly not Weke)

when you begin your contribution or post with an insult,it does not tell well of you. please be civil. remember that fed allocation has dropped not just for rivers but also the other states.
amaechi is struggling to pay salaries. two days ago RSHA approved a 19billion naira withdrawal FROM THE STATES SAVINGS. the numerous projects littered around have been poorly funded of late.

Collynzo29:
What about Eneka roads, Igwurita Etche roads, Rumuigbo?
I know Amaechi has tried, but don't make it look like only Obigbo has bad roads.

eneka-igwuruta- rumukrushi is under construction.true or false?

you mentioned rumuigbo.where in rumuigbo?

APC

Brainwashing looters

seeing everything through APC/PDP has not gotten and will not get this country anywhere.
if we all vote in 2015 based on competence, won't you sleep easier at night?

why does religion and tribe have to come first for Gods sake? why?
