Everyone knows that from Bender LGA going to Ohafia, Arochukwu, Abia state have large square kilometers of various farm fields.

I wonder why the state haven't started developing this sector of agriculture since.

Now that we are ready to develop it,won't you rather join hands and move it forward?

sekundosekundo:
Are you from Abia?

Papa Abia Mama Abia. I am 100% Abia o

One more thing_ Abia government is also planing to embark upon cowpea I.e beans production as various researches conducted in University of Agriculture Umudike over the years have proved that Beans can thrive well in this part of the country. Our major challenge now is land as the University community there in Ikwuano is fast growing out of proportion, but we are looking at test running it at Isialangwa and Obingwa area of the state where we have enough land for agriculture.

lalasticlala we don key in o. We are going to mass-produce rice sotey England go dey buy from us. Let's go there!

Abia bans revenue agents from 2017

Abia State Government is leaving no stone unturned to ensure increase in her internally generated revenue from the 2017 fiscal year.

To this effect, the state has banned the use of agents as revenue collectors in the state in 2017.

A statement signed by the State's Deputy Governor, Sir Ude Oko Chukwu, who is also the Chairman of the State's Internally Generated Revenue Council reads:

"This is to inform all concerned that, the IGR Policy of the state did not provide for appointment of revenue agents.

"MDAs are by this notice directed not to appoint any agent for the year 2017, as Abia State Government will not be held liable for any contravention.

"All Revenue matters must be directed to the IGR council. Please be guided."

Abians, particularly residents of Abia and Umuahia, are therefore requested to avoid paying any revenue agent or "consultant" who claims to be acting on behalf of the state from the fiscal year 2017 and going forward.

Righting a wron? good! Using it to score cheap political point? bad

A worker deserves his pay

He is clearing the mess of created by you and your likes who didn't deem it fit to pay workers and pensioners when they were governors. Government is transient, Dr Okezie inherited all the mess and debt and he is ready to pay.

Mistymash:
Please these improved seedlings are they the SUPER GENE OIL PALM seedlings? Thank you

Yes,and kernels too for PKC production

MeAboki:
Hope Igbo youths will also reciprocate and stop their hateful lies and propaganda against the north.

Why not?

GODISGREAT123:
Quite commendable. This is the Igbo spirit of old which the Nigerian arrangements since after the war has been killing gradually but steadily.

Reactivating the Igbo progressive spirit of the past would really help Igboland and our country. I am going to join this noble association just as I pray that Igbo's should also form association of like minds that will not be hijacked by any politician.

lalasticlala I think this Hausa man deserve to be celebrated just like the Ngwa patriots too

felicitywe:
The act by Ngwa patriots is a wake up call for all Abians and Igbo ppl to resurrect the old Community development stragtegy that was used to develop d Eastern region. The problem is dat in d past palm oil was communally used to send d educated ones abroad for studies but when they got there they forgot d ppl and faced their families.When they were approached by d ppl for assistance they backed at the ppl and said they can pay all the money provided for their education. The villagers went to their respectives houses to fend for their families.Ngwa patriot more greese to ur grace.

Well said

Preciousseed:
Well, thank you very much. But I just did go through your topics now and I didnt see anyone that talked about agricultural 'news' being embarked upon by Abia state government, maybe you can help me posts those topics. Moreover, even if there is, it shouldn't be about 'news' but action. States like Anambra, Kebbi, Ebonyi, etc are not talking about agric news but their works in agriculture is highly conspicuous by all. Though I still believe so much in this administration.

I hope this satisfy you.

Mr Ponponkon you just dey avoid my quotes and i nor know why.
The league commences before christmas, whats the latest update on the re-grassing?
Your oga promised to deliver before the new league season during his Q&A session on MagicFM.
Secondly what package does the governor have for the guys in Ariaria Market. I watched a Channels TV documentary where
he promised them lots of good stuffs especially interms of mechanized production;
And how long is the entire Faulks road (in Kilometers)?

Ogam,you know Aba Marathon was put off because of the work in that stadium and the adjoining roads. I've not really made a follow up to the progress of work there. I am human just like everyone I can't be everywhere at the same time,but because of you I will get to that spot.

MadamExcellency:
Seun that is afraid of Igbo ladies since Ogugua88 broke his heart after his entreaties and 500 Flirty Text Messages for dating were rebuffed.

The only serious work that needs to be done is a big underground pipe from point A(Faulks road) to Point B(Aba river) as shown in the attached map.

This will curb the flooding we usually experience. Any governor that can't achieve that is a mediocre.

Ekwusigom! If you no like am, je ri nsi.

Illiterate if you have been following all my post on faulks road,you wouldn't have come here to yap rubbish. Kindly go through my faulks road topics and see how the engineers spelt out what they are doing on the road.
