Still it will take many years to challenge the oil sector

But we must start from somewhere

yaki84:

We don't want it to challenge any sector.
Industrialization in akwaibom isn't for competition or game of challenge.
Na for the economy of the state.

If the industry cannot grow beyond akwaibom state,then its just like any other small scale business

abanihenry:
I don't know what is happening to Abia state, irrespective of the abundant resources that the state is endowed with, The God own State, has just been blessed with leaders who are fantastically corrupt. A state where the ex Governor made sure his son who has over 80 different bank accounts is made the speaker by the present Governor who is his stooge in order to continue the looting. No good road in Umuahia and Aba the commercial nerve center of the state. Aba is one town you see the residents carrying their shoes in their bag or hand whenever it rain and they are going to the Church. On reaching the entrance of the church you see them remove their slippers and put on their shoes. God come and deliver Abia from this cabals in Umuahia. We will be crying for marginalization whereas we are the architect of our own problem. The most backward state in term of infrastructural development on the whole of south eastern Nigeria. They should go and see the transformation in Ebonyi state their neighbouring state. I don't know whether Nnamdi KANU is seeing this crooks called Governor in his own state.

What's your old moniker?

Abia and Ogun states are way more Industrialized than akwa ibom by far....the only problem this two states have is roads and especially roads in Abia both Federal and state

merit455:
Abia or Ogun state

I love this, not those who are planning to feed school children who are sitting at home with 13 billion naira. Build what will provide job

But, where are the coconut trees? Let this not end up like other beautiful but unusable plants (Nwobodo's carpet factory that took millions of dollars loans). Believe, for me, that there should be ready and sustainable plantations before the factory. This is because, most times, these plants are just built as a means of justifying some stashed away billions, while meaningful and yarning needs of the society are overlooked.

Why not learn from Dangote tomato paste error? Where's the raw material that'll ensure continuity?
It's not about setup, it's about carrying out comprehensive feasibility studies before embarking on such enterprise

Kudos to visionary leaders like Akwa Ibom past and present leaders. Haters should go and hug transformers

JAMO84:
This is the kind of things that can take Nigeria out of poverty, not by Buhari snapping his fingers and poverty should be gone.


I AM DONE TALKING

IT cant. I will tell you why because it's government-owned, except it privately owned or some form of joint ownership between government and private individuals where the private individual owns more stakes. You see government-owned companies are known for their inefficiency and cronyism.

Nice

Do you know the cost of coconut oil in the international market?

israelmao:
If only FG would leverage on this and will not turn blind eyes to it as it did to Prof.Iwu's medicinal solution to Coronavirus.

That's why is private not government (ppp)

YungLasaint:
The project is 70% privatize

Ok.

We are developing gradually

Johnson baby oil and others are imported from Europe,with this coconut oil factory coco-dollars

It all depends on the angle your seeing

Oga,try to read,don't just jump to a conclusion
Coconut plantations are in ikot abasi,eastern obolo and mkpat enin
Likewise in other LGA

Massive as in thousands of stuffs like this and the Nigerians should stop ideas of thinking of embezzling them

Tookool:
I'm not impressed with the works Udom is doing ...he has performed below expectations. I won't be surprised if I later hear the coconut factory is co-owned by a Swedish company

Shouldn't it be better to be completely private, remember one thing for sure is that it will give jobs to the locals

Papijoe6666:
How sure are?

On what?

YungLasaint:
Chie!!! You know say if it's 100% government owned the will not manage it well...

Okay ... but he isn't doing well. His manifesto stated 1 industry, 1 LGA ... atleast. But that's not what we're seeing

Kennydoc:


What's the economic importance of that Monorail especially when you factor in the cost running into several billions?

If everybody think like you, honestly Nigeria wouldn't even have an airport or amusement park. Must you build everything for profit , meanwhile the monorail can be manage by private company ok

PortHarcourt1st:
Very commendable. While Rivers state youths like kinematics are joining cultism.

Not everybody please sir

wink2015:
NORTHERN NIGERIA IS STILL WAITING FOR CRUDE OIL MONEY.

They won"t think of diversifying their economy.

They will wait for so long.

The honestly need to wakeup

Tookool:

Okay ... but he isn't doing well. His manifesto stated 1 industry, 1 LGA ... atleast. But that's not what we're seeing

Yea you're right... Maybe the have boycott everything...

matrixme:
This is a great one from AKSG. Anytime you think of coconut in Nigeria, just refer to Mkpat Enin Local government. No better place to site the company than there. I pray they don't politicize this great project

Is PPP that's why udom is different

Hunchogee:


God bless you sir for your kind words. I felt in love with this state precisely when I discover the level of industrialisation mindset the state carries.....akwa ibom really want to be industrialized. Lalala abeg take it to the top

oga all this things are fake this akwaibom govt lai too much all is fake not existing

Hunchogee:

If everything like you, honestly Nigeria would even have an airport or amusement park. Mist you build everything for profit , meanwhile the monorail can be manage by private company ok

Listen, Nigeria is a poor country. The resources are limited, and the focus should be on building things with economic potentials. By the time the country is as rich as some of the First World countries, we can start spending money on aesthetics. What is the value of iPhone 11 to a man who needs 400k to start small scale business?

That PH Monorail was a waste of funds in the first place.
Another thing, remember Calabar was the first to build Monorail. When last did hear about it?
Apart from Lagos, I sincerely don't know any other state that deserves monorail as a critical infrastructure now.

Igbosmoker:
Obaseki God will punish you. See how akwa ibom are developing their state, we are the 5 most developed state in South south because of you.

Where's Benin central park
Benin port
Emotan garden
Industrial park

Etc?
