The Minister of Information and Communications, Mr Labaran Maku has expressed excitement over the quality of job being done on the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium under construction by Governor Chibuike Amaechi led-administration in Rivers State, describing it as a great asset not only to Rivers State but to the entire nation
The minister, who led the Good Governance Tour team to Rivers State, made the remarks yesterday at the stadium during the teams’ tour of projects in Rivers State.
Maku who regretted that the chances of Nigerian hosting the Olympic Games was being marred by the unavailability of stadia that meet Olympic standard, said the Amiesimaka stadium in Rivers State has raised hope of Nigeria in hosting Olympic Games.
The information minister who fielded questions from journalists after Governor Amaechi took the team round the stadium said, this is a very standard stadium under development that can be used for Olympic games.
He said sports in the present time was attracting so much money such that Nigerians must invest heavily on sports but regretted that the lack of standard sporting facilities was denying the nation the national earning desired in view of the vast potentials the country possesses on sports.
Maku commended Governor Amaechi for putting in place such high quality stadium to meet the needs of the state and the nation at large.

Apart from having facilities to contain all sporting activities, the governor said it has 500 public toilets, two Olympic size swimming pools.
The governor also explained that the stadium cost N24billion while the entire complex cost the state N31billion and when completed, would create employment opportunity for more Rivers people and Nigerians and help reduce crime in the society.
Earlier, Maku and his team who was received at the state Government House yesterday morning, explained that the essence of the tour round the nation was to showcase what development democracy had been able to provide for Nigerians, stressing, that it provides a forum for Nigerians to ask leaders pertinent questions agitating their minds.
He assured that the team would be neutral and non-partisan, adding that the team was made up of journalists both local and national as well as civil society organization.
The minister who disclosed that the team arrived the state after visiting Cross River, remarked that Rivers State was strategic to the national economy in view of its leading position in the oil and gas , and as the centre point of the South-South geo-political zone.

TheSuperNerd:

(uhmm... Apart from the "dear Optional2" part..... Before you raise eyebrows again).



Wasn't surprised Akwa Utd emerged Champions. What Optional2 and the rest of the crew witnessed was "THE POWER OF A #100 million Pledge/Top-up plus Cars gift".

Akwa's first domestic trophy in their history. Congrats to The New Champs and Well done to gallant runners-up, Lobi Stars.

Jaypea98:
Just as i fore-thought, A deluded citizen would disagree with my latter assertion.
Unfortunately dear sir you failed to attach proof of your claims.....
Check this out....




I have backed up my claims with verifiable links not hearsay .
IF YOU THEREFORE CAN NOT DO THE SAME, I SUGGEST THAT YOU.............

freshcvvs:
You still don't get.

The amenities and various sporting departments in the stadium in Rivers are much more than that of ikwa ibom.

Apart from the football pitch inside the akwa ibom stadium, what else is there?

I know you won't understand anything.

The stadium in rivers is a sports complex while the one Akwa is not.

The rivers stadium can host all sporting activities available at the Olympic games, how many sporting activities can the one in Akwa host?

If Akwa is to have everything the rivers stadium have, do you think $30m extra can get these stuffs?

Kindly list what we have in Akwa compared to rivers, then lets see which is more expensive if both have had the same Amenities.

Jaypea98:
Akwa Ibom Stadium might not be a Sport Complex like the one in rivers but it has four standard training pitches around the vicinity
Go through my proceeding posts before i compared both Stadiums only so quit the unnecessary diversion tactics stick solely to the bone of contention....THE STADIUM........
AKWA IBOM STADIUM COSTS $96Million
AMIESIAMAKA STADIUM COSTS Cost analysis
Cost of Amaechi stadium N24 billion = $126,349,252.96....
MINUS THE OTHER STUFFS LIKE TENNIS COURTS,POOLS etc
..........NOW........
That's a DIFFERENCE of a whooping 30MILLION DOLLARS
From what you have seen of those two edifices ,which one looked world class?




Rivers State stadium as newly built as it is, is an eyesore and doesn't look like a 40k capacity stadium to me.
The pitch ,the tracks and even the stands look doesn't come close to the one in Katsaona .....
AMIESIAMAKA STADIUM IS A SCAM!!!!!!!
