I m sorry to say this. But Soludo is fast becoming a fool. He can't overturn what Obi had done to him . While Soludo keeps whining in the press, Obi keeps winning him on ground. He should just shut it and stop disturbing us with his noise. I supported Soludo in 2013 to become Anambra gov but since he was defeated like a kid he should go back and work on himself.

Why must Obiano plaster his picture on all of his projects in Anambra? Its not cool at all. Even roads undergoing minor refilling of potholes normally have a small sign post with the inscription "willy is working" on them. Its embarrassing if you ask me.

^^Cj, I understand your point but the mall is not for everybody. The quality should not be tampered with. It was designed to be an upscale five star facility and they should maintain the quality so far without compromising. The mall and 5 star hotel around will have a dedicated ipp energy supply. So energy supply is no longer an issue.

Nwanne,
I ma na when it comes to quality , I am number one on your list.
However, being mindful of the financial situation of the state, i am usually not frivolous with my suggestions.

Ergonomics is all about using smart engineering design to make anything more user friendly, reduce cost and make a business more profitable. I believe the mall should be for everyone and the cost of owning a shop there should not be too outrageous.If not, that will be the LAST mall in Anambra because developers will feel it is unprofitable to build malls, as no anchors or customers will come in the quantity to make it profitable.I am aware of many malls that are empty simply because the cost of owning store is too expensive and therefore people don't patronize them because things sold at the mall is way too expensive.

Across the world, tell me where you have seen an IPP for a single mall? Mind you, mall in many countries reach up to 120,000 sqm. Constructing an Independent Power plant for a single mall 15,000 sqm mall but not a refinery tells me you haven't looked at the cost of these infrastructure you are listing. You can very well construct an International cargo airport to specially deliver goods for the mall for the asking.

Cutting cost of electricity is one good way to make a mall affordable to the anchors and the customers. You may have even seen such malls abroad but really haven't taken note of what they did and why.
See some malls with natural lighting using transparent roof.

Obiano is doing a wonderful job by diversifying the economy of Anambra. Just like someone said, the completion of the Onitsha mall as well as both the Nnewi and Awka mall will put the state in the circle of world business activities. However, I don't buy the idea of concentrating much development to one zone (Anambra north) as proposed by Obiano. You cannot have a commercial airport, a refinery/petro-chemical hub as well as the Agro belt of the state in close proximity. It may brew conflict of interest.

Someone recently showed a satellite map of Anambra, and you could easily see that such heavy industries can only find space in the sparsely populated Anambra north. I can state without fear of contraction that except in Anambra north, you cannot find a complete 4KM stretch for an international airport runway anywhere without demolishing many houses and using the money for the project to pay hugely on property compensation. Obi Jackson could not even find enough land in Okija to build a regional hospital without serious conflict with the villagers and farmers!

If Anambra must build those heavy industries within it's border, there is no other location for ample landmass required for them than to go north.

You are one person that thrills me with your wealth of knowledge in almost all subjects and your input on this thread has so enriched this thread. When I say the mall is not for everybody I mean its not meant for an average businessman at main market. You need to understand the class of clients that are hosting the mall; Shoprite, Mr Price, Woolworths etc. That is not to say that it will be too exorbitant to afford for rich people who may wish to secure a space within the mall.

On this issue of energy, what I meant by IPP is that it will have its dedicated independent power supply(either soundproof) other than public energy supply that is not steady. The two power supplies modes shall alternate each other. The transparent roofs as shown in your pictures are not bad afterall..

Well for what its worth all contributions are welcomed because its all for good..

I already know that Peter Obi's performance was exaggerated by his paid image laundering group. Most of his highly rated performances are still in the Plan which unfortunately accumulated dusts in his shelf while he tried to outsmart himself
I am also aware he can't write. The only article he wrote in recent times about Buhari and age (I shared in the sentiment) lacked class. The editors did a poor or difficult job with it, there were many direct importation of Igbo expressions into English
So Whatelse will Soludo tell me about a man so cunning like Peter?
However, I think the Professor should wait till after elections, the timing of his expositions made it look like he was hired

Truly, it doesn't bother me. As long as he is doing innovative things to improve the state.

In Anambra, it is preferable to refer to one based on his traditional title than his personal name. Even Victor Umeh has popularized "Ohamadike" to the delight of many. So i think Obiano is simply following the prevailing way of doing things. I think Obi launched the era of wearing your own image and Ojukwu on your dress. Obiano simply towed the culture.
I am sure party faithfuls will be seriously annoyed if he is doing all these and not showing they are his handiwork.

Peter Obi was not a saint. He doesn't have to be.
He came, saw a disorganized state and did his best to improve it.
His effort might be below your standard or expectation, but suffice to say that 99.9% of Anambra people testify that Peter Obi left Anambra better than he met it.

Gov. Obiano simply became a governor because Anambra trusted whomever Peter Obi endorsed to succeed him. It says something about the man Peter Obi.

I just finished reading that Soludo's recent release on premium times. He sounded pained because NOI labelled his tenure at CBN as the worst. To proof her wrong he said that a leader's public service is rated based on 3 things. One of which is what the people think about the leaders tenure. He went further to quote statements by OBJ and the late Yar' adua which were in praise in of his tenure at CBN. Now in the case Obi, you and I know that morethan 60% of Anambra people praised obi and are still praising him. Even soludo himself sang obi's praise when he was campaigning. I m a critic of Obi too, but i cant say his tenure was a disaster in Anambra. Soludo should focus on facts and stop personal attacks. He is too learned for this abeg.

It took you this long to admit obi is not a saint. Trusted indeed. As if we've forgotten how that election was rigged to favor Obiano although he has warmed himself to the people. obi did not meet a disorganized state, he did not meet a state where teachers and pensioners were on indefinite strike because of backlog of owed salaries. He did not meet a state where kidnapping was rampant. he did not meet a state where major roads where death traps. stop insulting our sensibilities here.

Soludo should not rubbish himself in the press. NOI has a track record of integrity and unlike Soludo "DOES NOT HAVE POLITICAL ASPIRATION".
I have been one of soludo's greatest supporters and i know the present path will ruin him. Soludo should know that choosing to be a hatchet writer for the APC will foreclose his political career, unless he has plans to be granted Katsina citizenship.

As much as i loved Ngige for standing up against Obasanjo, i said the same thing when he tried to side with Fashola against Peter Obi during the Igbo deportation saga. What these men fail to see is that the Igbo does not see these as an attack against Peter Obi per se, they see it for what the consequences of these actions; which is siding with the enemies of the Igbo nation to rubbish us. It is the worst unforgivable sin any Igbo politician can commit and still come back to ask for Igbo votes. I wish soludo well in his new path.

I disagree with the last paragraph. Obiano didn't become Governor simply for that your reason above. He was fought from with APGA the issue was he just came from 'nowhere' to usurp the coveted seat of APGA Gov aspirant from the foundation members
I for one, did not trust any candidate Obi anointed although I was convinced that such a candidate will win because of Federal might and interference ab initio. My main consolation at that time was that no such Governor who wants to make a difference in the State will honour any criminal agreement made with Obi.

Bro,
We are not here to debate well known facts. I guess Obiano was a former Senator, House of Rep. or even Local government chairman that we all knew about him before he beat even Peter Obi's SSG Oseloka Obaze, Mrs Ekwunife or Soludo to become the gubernatorial candidate?
Ngige even used to make a mockery of Obiano wearing Obi's image while campaigning to be governor. grin

Obiano himself said he used to read about the aspirants on newspapers from America and hoped for the best man to prevail. He didn't know he would be that man.
