deedeedee1: Ignore that punk. This thread has become a source of perpetual and excrutiating pain to he and his ilk since its inception. He's just venting his frustration. I would probably feel the exact same way too if I were a bitter igbo flatthead viewing this thread, therefore I can understand and feel his pain. It can't be easy being igbo and viewing all this awesomeness from Yoruba sons and daughters. E no fit easy my brother. 12 Likes 1 Share |

gbolah1:Excuse me,how do I seems to defraud people? How, let me understand. Seriously,I don't seems to understand you here. If a person doesn't post his name or details, what audacity have you got to do so? Is posting another person's name a form of confirmation or ridicule? If you can't help, why deter others? I don't direct my solicitions to you. Oh....I hope you can edit your post and don't ridicule a fellow by that name. Well,it's not your fault. We have different ethic of approaching things. I hope you can edit your post. BTW: Can you tell us how this Mayowa Olusanjo Afolabi had been to you. In as much you are a fellow medical student. Is he a yahoo person? Or better put how come you know he is a medical student? Please,if you can't help, better you hold it there. It's not your fault, I will repeat. You can call me a beggar if you so wish. It's not your fault. But one thing is sure, I believe GOD to make me overcome this trying period, and someday help the world in my capacity too. How? I don't know. But am much optimistic my GOD that I serve, won't let me down. 1 Like |

Famfa Limited was incorporated in September 1991. Famfa Limited was awarded the leasehold rights to OPL 216 on August 10, 1993. In February 1996, the name was changed to Famfa Oil Limited with the vision to be the leading indigenous oil and gas exploration and production company in Nigeria. Famfa Oil Limited is currently one of the largest indigenous Nigerian owned exporters of crude oil in Nigeria. Famfa Oil is committed to developing one of the deepest and largest offshsore discoveries in the gulf. The Agbami field has been operating since 2008 and will be operating through till 2024 when the majority of its vast reserves would have been extracted. EXPLORE AGBAMI Agbami The Agbami field is one of the largest deepwater discovery to date in Nigeria, with estimated recoverable reserves of 900 million barrels. The crude oil found in the field is light and sweet, with a 45-degree API gravity and no contaminants. PRODUCTION FACILITY Facility Name: Agbami FPSO Duty: Operator: Chevron Current Statu Host Type: FPSO Water Depth: Dev.Cost: $1,100,000,000 Region: Location: OML 127 and 128 OIL AND GAS FIELD Field Name: Agbami Discovery Block: OML 127 and 128 Reserve T Current Status: Producing Productio Water Depth: 1,372 m / 4,528 ft Agbami FPSO Developed by an FPSO, Agbami came online on July 29, 2008. The Agbami FPSO is designed to handle 250,000 bopd, with an additional 450 MMcf/d and 450,000 barrels of injected water per day. Daewoo Shipping and Marine was contracted to provide the FPSO for a consideration of $1.1 billion. Daewoo subcontracted to KBR, which provided the topside design and procurement services for the FPSO. The vessel has a storage capacity of 2.2 million barrels of oil and is designed to be on location for 20 years. Weighing in at 30,000 tons, 13 topsides will generate 75 megawatts of power and have living quarters for 100 personnel. Development required 6,500 tons of fabrication, as well as 300,000 man-hours of engineering and services. The field is expected to produce more than 100,000 bopd initially, and by the close of 2009, production increased to 250,000 barrels of crude oil and natural gas liquids per day.

deomello:Thanks a lot for this post. It is such an inspiration. This woman Oyenike Monica Okundaye literally put Adire (the Nigerian tie-and-dye batik fabric) on the world map of the fashion industry. She is from Ogidi in Kogi state. She had no formal education because she dropped out of school, after she lost her parents. She was only given an informal type of training, in the form of weaving, dyeing and fabric design. Today, the batik artiste has lectured students at Harvard University, and has held workshops in several foreign universities, from Columbus to Edmonton, Ohio in the United States. Not bad for a lady without a first degree. Her works have been patronised by former American presidents such as George Bush and Bill Clinton. Providence has been kind to this hardworking lady. May divine Providence favour us all.... https://answersafrica.com/nike-okundaye-designer-harvard-lecturer.html 1. In 1974, Nike was one of the ten African artists who toured and taught arts in various crafts institutions in the USA. These tours were sponsored by USIS, Lagos. These trips took Nike to the fifty (50) states of America including the ice region of Alaska and the Virgin Islands of America conducting workshops and delivering lectures in schools and community centers. 4 Likes

Olajide Rosiji is a man with his fingers in many pies. And like the proverbial Greek god 'Midas', almost everything he touches, turns to gold. He was born in Ibadan and studied Zoology at University of Ibadan, before going on to study accountancy at Kilburn Polytechnic, in England. His late father was Chief Ayo Rosiji, the former Minister of Health, in the first republic. Even though he came from a prominent family, Ola still worked hard, to achieve success in the corporate sector. Olajide Rosiji cut his teeth at Nigerian Distilleries Limited (NDL), one of the oldest firms in the country. He worked through the ranks, and rose to become the Managing Director, before moving on to establish other subsidiary firms. NDL started business on the 6th of March 1961 with 100% Nigerian ownership. It is currently the largest wine and spirits producing company in Nigeria, manufacturing and marketing 14 different brands of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages in 35 different pack sizes, with over 1,000 employees. Under Ola Rosiji's leadership, the company started producing 10 million litres of beverages per year, with distribution outlets spread across the country. Some of its' well known products include Calypso Coconut liqueur, Dark Sailor Rum, Seaman's Aromatic Schnapps, Swagga, Regal Gin, Lord’s Dry Gin, Bacchus Tonic Wine etc. As the years went by, other allied companies were set up in a bid to diversify the corporate base of the firm, and bring in additional business. Supreme Distilleries, Grand Oak Limited, Lexcel Packaging, Allied Atlantic Distilleries Limited (AADL), Lexcel tech and Green Fuels Limited were set up, in conjunction with some Asian businessmen. Today, all the firms operate under the umbrella of the Lexcel Group, which has become a pan-African conglomerate, with Olajide Rosiji as its' Chairman. One of the companies Allied Atlantic Distilleries Limited (AADL) made history under his watch, when the company produced ethanol from cassava at its' Igbesa factory in Ogun State. It currently produces nine million litres of ethanol, from a local raw material to meet world standards. Ogun State governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, has commended Allied Atlantic Distilleries Limited (AADL), an ethanol manufacturing plant for making farming attractive in Ogun and Oyo states by hiring 8,000 cassava farmers for its operations. 7 Likes 2 Shares

TundeBricklayer: You this Obiano houseboy, why are you so dumb? When will you quit acting a fool? You couldn't even coherently disprove its ownership. A building goes by the name 'Adunola (a Yoruba name) House', yet you are here trying to contest its ownership without any shred of concrete evidence to the contrary? It's not 'Okeke House', neither is it 'Obiano or 'Okorocha House', but Adunola House. I know that in your typical fashion you must have done some digging in an attempt to disprove its owner's Yoruba affiliation but you were disappointed, only to come here to embarrass yourself , talking about some fictitious collabo with Pieach Ltd which happens to be the architect of the edifice. When will you ever receive sense you this foolish boy? You are a disgrace to yourself and the igbo ethnicity you represent. 14 Likes 1 Share |
