FG Committed To Sending Nigerians To Space –onu by Islie: 8:01am On Jan 17, 2020
Minister of Science and Technology, Dr.Ogbonnaya Onu,yesterday, assured that the vision to launch Nigeria into space was still on course and would be achieved in no distant time.

Onu said with the support of President Muhammadu Buhari, the ministry would continue to work towards achieving the dream no matter how long it takes.

The minister spoke in Abakaliki, Ebonyi state, while delivery an address in his alma mater, Izzi High School Old Students Association (great COSCO)’s national convention.

The event was held at the old school ground, presently occupied by the Faculty of Education,Ebonyi State University,Abakaliki (EBSU),Ishieke campus.

Onu urged students of the school to take interest in engineering and science courses, especially as they proceed into tertiary institutions.He said without trained engineers, the nation’s dream of going to space would end as a mirage.

Onu was reacting to after students of the school during a welcome song, took turns to mention the professions they would love to pursue, but surprisingly, none of them mentioned engineering.

He said engineering was vital to the development of any nation,and called on the management and teachers of the school to take urgent and sustainable measures to encourage the students to show interest to science and technology.

The minister donated 10 laboratory kits, 10 HP laptops, two desktop computers and copies of 12 different books he authored to the school.

This Onu had been dishing us lately some appetites that might not happen even in his own lifetime

Just to mention a few Promises from the Uburu man

-‘Nigeria to start methanol production soon’

--FG inaugurates committee on establishment of science data bank

-Nigeria to produce agric machinery soon, says minister

-Minister explains FG’s strategy for saving N3.6tn from raw materials


This is just to mention a few.... but nothing is forthcoming from that ministry, but waste of Salary on a "soon" minister.

Now if My president decides to reshuffle and sacks this man, and replace with a competent person, some will begin to cry marginalisation

That would probably be in fifty year's time. We dont have the least it takes to execute such a project, besides, it should be the least of our priorities.

We need to conquer poverty before contemplating conquering gravity.


Meanwhile, saw this on fb, can anyone confirm? Did his running mate really decamp and took the appointment? shocked

cheesy Guess Nigeria is done with producing toothpicks, pencil and aircraft spare parts as this Minister of Science and Technology once said? Does he even know how much it cost world powers to carry out projects of this magnitude?

With the state of Nigeria today, let's never be delusional with this useless, clueless, hopeless and irresponsible regime.Space ko moon ni.

Ogbonaya Onu should please remain silent and enjoy the ride. He has failed as a Minister!! I can't seem to attribute any success recorded by this man since his emergence as the minister of science and technology. Alas! He's not alone,so many incompetent heads. Tufiakwa!!

Onu, meshuonu! Shush!
Fly to Space in this Abokinized country?
I doubt it, the caveman President and his cabal will never let that happen. They'll rather employ Cattle style of Leadership over Scientific.

NB:

Only Tell Us About Vision South Nigeria.

Just imagine a United Country with Yorubas & Igbos, it will be dope right?
Imagine what our Music, Football, Movies, Politics, Innovative productions, Industries will be like!

I swear, South Nigeria will experience massive growth within a short period of gaining her freedom, South Nigeria shall become the most developed country in Africa & of course, the most Powerful.


After all,

Nah South Nigerians get Nollywood while Abokiis have Kannywood.
Nah South Nigerians plenty pass for Nairaland, how many Abokiis dey here? Only abokii propagandists.
Nah South Nigerians dem knw for Naija Music.
Nah South Nigerians dem knw for Football (Igbos especially).
Nah South Nigerians dem knw as most educated.

Nah South Nigerians dey carry this yeye corn tree, make Abokiis and Niger people become one corn tree Biko.


The only thing wey Abokiis take pass South Nigerians be Terrorism, Abokiis love being useless.

South Nigerians are Ready to take the World by Storm but the Abokiis are holding us back.

Have you noticed how stupid this government is sometimes?

Yet this government wants to go to space ....
