DMerciful:
You look at development as patching of roads.What Jonathan did for Igbos is treating Igbos as first class citizens and providing business atmosphere that made them more successful. He gave freedom which the average Igbo man value more than anything else because we are Republicans by nature. He also gave Igbos strategic positions including COAS. The second Niger bridge is Jonathan's project with funding planned for. Igbos knew that Bubu is bad business and Igbos are never wrong in business assessment and Bubu as failed woefully as predicted. You know nothing, just like John Snow!
Aside from the position of the COAS he gave to Ihejirika and who was to be retired in some months time, can you give us links to the rest of the lies you spewed

You just dont want to accept it due to your deep hatred for Buhari.

The way you people have constantly accused me falsely here of being non Igbo and having several nairaland accounts here tells me a lot about how you guys have lied against Buhari severally. Jisie nu Ike but the truth cannot be hidden for long.

Umuahia to Okigwe express that was reconstructed with the Sukkuk money is what you people are claiming that Jonathan did. Na wa for una o.
Let them call you all sorts and say you're not Igbo, forget it, na their way, just continue to hit them with the truth with facts

Yes, the heavy construction including that of 2nd Niger Bridge that Buhari is doing in the South-East is Greek Gift. Now, what do we call the commissioning of the 2nd Niger Bridge on the drawing board which Goatluck Jonathan did some years back? Is that Ijaw Gift?
Weeks to an election for that matter, he promised to construct that bridge in 2011 in 4 years and nothing, if he had been elected in 2015, do you think he'd have done anything?

WHy didnt Jonathan give us railway?

He didnt give us road, he didnt give us rail and he didnt give us second Niger bridge.

Now somebody is trying to give us road and second Niger bridge yet he is being condemned as if he is doing nothing at all for us.
This happens when one's heart is filled with hate and bile

1) Ex- President Jonathan supported himself by Igbo professionals/ politicians. He himself once declared that Ndigbo were the pillars of his administration. Indeed, the Igbos felt proudly to be deeply entrenched in the Government of Nigieria for the first time since the end of the civil war.

2) However in terms of infrastructural developments, he didn't do much even in his native S/South and in his support base of S/East despite having reasonable billions of Petrodollars.


3) In my own personal opinion, most Igbos (at least those on Nairaland, Twitter and Facebook) seems to prefer the first point above and uncomfortable about discussing the second point.




Nwadiuto247:
NO SIR.

Obasanjo was the one who worked on Enugu to PH expressway.

In Jonathan's time the road became bad and nothing much was done till Jonathan left it in a horrible state.

It was Buhari that started working on it pls. Stop lying for Africa.

That was how Lonathan kept promising us of second Niger bridge till he left wihhout doing it

Now Buhari is doing it as we all can see. Jonathan failed but you guys dont want to accept it..

You are right my brother, others have several kilometers of road and railway.

Yorubas have the follow among others;

1. Lagos-Ibadan expressway construction which was abandoned by PDP for 16 years
2. Oyo-Ogbomoso expressway construction which was abandoned by PDP for 16 years.
3. Apapa-Oshodi-Iyana_Oworo expressway construction which was abandoned by PDP for 16 years.
4. Contract for Ikorodu-Sagamu expressway has been awarded.
5. Lagos-Abeokuta-Ibadan railway construction is about 90% completed. PDP never dreamt of that.
6. There are several South-West roads captured in 2020 budget.

Politics is investment, you invest your votes and reap infrastructure. You cannot work in UBA and go to GTB to ask for salary.

The 2nd Niger which Buhari is constructing is very very wrong and unfair to other regions that voted this administration. It is purely robbing Peter to pay Paul. Igbos should have tied Goatluck Jonathan down to the poles of the old Niger Bridge until he constructs the 2nd Niger Bridge.

In democracy the government however elected is the government of all. The tension you see in our today is because those who are in power have decided to treat certain parts of the country with extreme marginalization. Mind you a large chunk of the money comes from oil proceeds from the Niger Delta.

Pls lets put sentiment aside as we are returning home this season. kindly take a look at the work that Buhari has done so far in Igbo land and report here. Its an infrastructural assessment.

1. For me i observe serious reconstruction of roads from Umuahia to Enugu,

2. Another serious road work ongoing from Enugu to Anambra.

3. Serious work on second Nigeria is going on too.

Jonathan spent almost six years in power without working seriously on these projects but Buhari came and today we can see big progress being made on the various projects.
Pls nobody should abuse the president here pls. Just comment decently. thanks.

i will post more as i travel from one part of Igbo land to the other

Let's be sincere. Infrastructure wise, GEJ was a monumental failure as far SE is concerned.

I don't think there's anymore strategic road other than Enugu-Onitsha, yet for 5yrs of GEJ, and unprecedented inflow of petrodollars, it was a eyesore.

I passed Umuya stretch a few days ago and found myself saying a silent prayer for PMB. What would take close to 30mins aching gallops and dust inhalation (those familiar know what I'm talking about), I breezed through the newly asphalted road in less than 5 mins.

Just that PMB too dey fall hand sometimes. . .

Oga you are wrong,

Buhari campaigned in each state of the south east both in the 2015 and 2019 election because they are important to him.

Except you are trying to say that Buhari was foolish to have done that.

Dont talk ignorantly, Its better you condemn a post with facts than what you ve written.

Your comment here is capable of derailing this thread and the whole discuss will go back the usual tribal war and i dont want it .

pls maintain discussion in line with what is being discussed.. Thanks

Ok..what are your sincere thoughts about Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB?

What do you think about buhari's appointments?

How do you feel about the fact that when national security matters are discussed, not a single Igbo man sits on the round table? A tribe of more than 50 million people worldwide are not considered to head COAS, CDS, CAS, CNS not even paramilitary like NSCDC, Immigration, Prisons, Customs?

Tell us how you feel about that. I also present the question to Mr netpro and okoroawusa.

Like someone said here blood is thicker than water, a mother hen will always recognise her own chicks in a multitude of chicks. It is not magic.

I'm waiting.
Nnamdi Kanu started his mission abuse of the north, the southwest and some other tribes.
He failed to keep to the bail condition thereby heating the country.

He was cautioned by Ohaneze and SE governors to take things easy but he refused. Some other Igbos tried to control them but they refused

Gradually they formed their army.

Buhari had to do at that point what he did being an ex General to save the country from plunging into war. A civilian leader may take different steps.

The problem of IPOB is that they are too stubborn and behave like touts.

They hate to be opposed but they like opposing others. The ones in nairaland and motor parks are the worst. So filled with hatred.

As for Buhari's appointments i will say its lopsided.

The one of security heads appointment is bad.

You seem to have harsh words for IPOB for being reactionary but soft words for Buhari their chief instigator. Yes nepotism, cronyism, irridentism are big instigators of political inflammation and violence.

People have gone to wars for less, govts have been toppled for far less.

A Motherhen will always identify it's chicks. Use your tongue to count you teeth.

GEJ actually did a lot for the SW and the North infrastructurally because they were on his neck from day one. We still got an International Airport and he not only approved the Second Niger Bridge but put enough funds down to build the thing through the NSIA.

I do not agree that appointments lopsided against us Igbos any more than one would expect from a region that delivered very few election victories for the ruling party should expect.

You see even if Buhari wanted to be completely even-handed in appointments and allocation of projects it would be an uphill task if not near impossible.

Why?

Because who have got his ear? The people closest to him from his region that worked hardest for him to win election.

The elected APC lawmakers would also carry more influence in advising president on appointments and prioritising projects.

The APC members of NASS Buhari will need to be on-side, for smooth implementation are almost all from North and SW. So these people got more bargaining power and influence, to suggest who Buhari appoints to juicy positions such as minister of works.

The SW who helped deliver the ruling govt, got the minister of Works and consequently have the most Road construction.

Even with the railway Amaechi who is minister of transport comes under pressure from APC filled with elected Northern and SW politician and bigwigs, to prioritise railway construction in N and SW.

Was the Lagos-Calabar rail project not removed by NAss leadership from the 2016 budget proposal and Buhari had to insist on its inclusion before assenting to the budget bill?

Your not saying the truth, the second niger bridge was started late 2013. Little journey used sand excavated from underwater pile by juliius beger, to fill up his flooded lands at atani Rd. underwater rod layerings started early 2014, and by end of 2014, the pillars you see today have already been erected. if gej had continued in power, the completion of the bridge would have been history by now.
