For example this is Chelsea farms, one of the MOUs signed by Anambra state government. The investor started out planning for huge farmland but now is now building a whole brand new Agroeconomic city. These are the types of investments pouring into the state that people don’t know about.

This city when fully built will be a new economic hub.


There are so many other mini cities in the plans in anambra state that people have no idea.

Lots of investments is coming into the state by indigenes.

Chest beaters have come again
Why not say London

I'm sure this obiano will show his flat head side

clarocuzioo:
I am an Igbo man, and am proud of Anambra for what they have been able to achieve, but for now this statement is a fallacy.

There are a lot of things that favours Lagos state.

Lagos was once a Federal Capital Territory

Lagos is a commercial town.
Lagos is an Industrial town
Lagos has Airport
Lagos has seaports
Lagos is still being favoured by the FGN as it sees it as the commercial headquarters of the country.

I accede to everything you have said.. You're very correct.

Someone up there said his statement could be alcohol induced.. Hahahahahahahahahaha

mrakeli62:
Anambra State Governor, Chief Willie Obiano, has said only Lagos stood ahead of the state in terms of investment drive and opportunity to net big investors from outside the country to Nigeria.

Obiano, who spoke during the opening ceremony of the sales outlet of a soon-to-be developed estate in the state, Awka Millennium City (AMC), said the state has been positioned as one of the top states in the country.


Represented by the Secretary to the State Government, Prof Solo Chukwulobelu, Obiano, in his address, said: “We are happy to say that things have moved quickly since after the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding in June, between M-P Infrastructure and the Anambra State Government.”

“This shows that M-P Infrastructure people are prepared for business. I encourage you to continue and I look forward to the ground-breaking ceremony for this tastily estate, in the next four months, whose kind can only be found in Abuja, Lagos, London and America.

“This administration is business-friendly, and we have been calling on sons and daughter of Anambra from all over the world to bring a part of their investment home.

“We are building a world-class state, and our people are speedily heeding our calls and bringing home their investments. With this speed, we are sure that no state in Nigeria can compete with Anambra in terms of attracting investments from outside.

“Our major competitor now is Lagos State, and we are sure that at this pace, we are going to take major investment opportunities from Lagos very soon,” the governor said.

Obiano added that with security in the state, and massive investments, Anambra sons and daughters from all over the world have no reason to remain outside as good infrastructure from residential areas to amenities and business-friendly environment have been made possible.

Earlier, Group CEO, M-P Infrastructure Ltd, Dr. Clem Nwogbo, stated that his company was poised to give Anambra an exquisite residential area for top class citizens, promising that the yet-to-be developed city would habour all top amenities found in top cities of the world.

“In developing the master plan for AMC, we have had to engage some of the best consultants in the world, to ensure we have the best infrastructure designed, using best in-breed specialist in road and drainage, power, water, sewage, environmental, access control and security solutions design.

“In the next four months, we hope to have completed the access road into the Awka Millennium Estate, fence wall, monument gate and have a fully operational concrete fabrication yard.

“Your Excellency, we did promise you at the conception of this project that we will move fast on this project and today’s opening of the sales and marketing suite and handover of some of the key assets for delivering Awka Millennium City is part of that commitment,” he said.

It will overtake Lagos without any airport in Anambra state, the investors will be landing in other states, proceed Anambra with Taxi?? Alcohol is not good in Obiano, system.... I swear

seguno2:
Before we go gaga with premature celebration, is it possible to have an update on the ugu vegetable exports that were supposed to yield $5 million



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0KjjWwbXOs&feature=share

Farmers are making their money from Ugu and other vegetable export business as I am typing. He has established what is needed same with Rice farming, or you want him to focus all his Eight year tenure on telling you about Ugu export.

This is good news. The other day I read about another Eastern states as the fastest growing financial center in Nigeria.

Before we celebrate the way we did when the capital was being move to Abuja, we better wait. Lagos got even denser not lighter as we expected.

All this not by mouth or plans on paper, it takes dedication, hardwork and determination.Kudos to them on there prospective grand achievements.

Someone up there is ambitious and has lots of self belief.

Just curious. Can someone list some of the investors or we should check the Forbes list of billionaires

No, I don’t want him to focus all his eight years on whatever.
Nevertheless thanks for sharing the information that you have.

Will you go return mom's phone before she wakes up and go shower to get ready for school little Segun.
Knocks!

Speaking from your own experience with your mom

Nice development. Anything that can send them back home I appreciate. Lagos should not only be destination economy wise. Anambra, Rivers, Warri, Ibadan, Ogun, Kano, Abuja. We can all do better. This can be done if there is zeal. Rivers should make his security state top-notch, it has everything at his disposal on pal.

Wetin I know self.

WHY NOT IF NOT

BUT FOR NOW

LAGOS IS THE 5TH LARGEST ECONOMY IN AFRICA AND OVER 60% OF NIGERIA'S ECONOMY

IF YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW!

I am Igbo & I agree with you so what.

60% of Nija biz is in Lagos.

90% of Nija revenue na Niger Delta or South East

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this statement.
It is purely of healthy competition.
Lagos is a pride to the Yorubas and every wise governor in Nigeria should use it as a standard for now in certain areas.
Overtaking Lagos in investment destination doesnt mean economically too and these are just aspirations. And people are just making a huge mole out of it. However, Obiano should be wary of the kind of monies he spends on himself these days else people go beat am for Aroma junction one day

gwafaeziokwu:
The kind of investments pouring into Anambra state is scary. If the momentum is maintained then I don't see why they won't give Lagos a run for their money. Healthy competition is good for our economy and I appreciate his humility.

nna Let them overtake ogun state first before reasoning Lagos matter. Pipe dreams all the way. So he thinks other states will just fold hands and do nothing àbí. Talk is cheap.

Ogun will overtake Lagos as investment destination before Anambra can ever dream of overtaking lagos.

He wants to compete with the best economy in Nigeria which is Lagos state. If you want to aim high then target the best not the second or third best. That is the mentality of champions. I thought the fact that he acknowledged Lagos economic supremacy would have save him from you guys scathing attack. I don't really have the strength for unnecessary argument. If you are mad at his statement, buy koboko go to the government house Awka and flog him. Smh

Amen

Do you have seaport?

Actually Anambra GDP is already bigger than Ogun according to the latest data by NBS.

I don't think he took time to read your post, that's the only reason I believe someone would reply what you wrote with the trash that this guy posted

well who doesn't believe in miracles. It will be better for lag coz the congestion is getting out of hand. In my neighborhood air conditioning is now the most bought electronics since even fans aren't doing well enough against the heat.

post=81484551:
It is good Mr Obiano is using Lagos as a yardstick for greatness,
The Holy Book told us to be imitator of good things.

We all know why Lagos state remains the best state in Nigeria already...........!

Because it was federal capital until 1991 and enjoy heavy federal investment till date.

I didn't even factor this report in my earlier submission. The truth is that the governor have his facts and know which economy he want to use as yardstick. We can only wish him well.

laurel03:
better so that they will leave lagos for us.. but I know they can't let Anambra be no mass land.
Talk is cheap sha... because of small estate investment that not value one acres at Eko Atlantic city. Anambra can overtake New york or Shanghai no problem..
Lagos get cable bridge and Anambra too get

Easy ooh
Hmmm
