Rusted roof and slum dwellers will always want to die on top Igbo issues. What concerns those in the waste with what happens in the SE and SS?

They behave like witches and that’s why they’ve remained the most backward region in Africa. Imagine people that dwell in slum settlements.

Putindbutt:
How can Rivers be an ibo state and during the war, you ran away from Rivers to your core ibo states?. Be like say theft dey una eye.

I wonder why most people from the waste lack common sense. Didn’t Igbos evacuate Onitsha, Enugu and Owerri at some point during the war? Does it now mean they weren’t part of Igboland?

Foolishness at its peak. Spit!

holuwhagbenga:
you can't be in Abuja and you still want to control governance in Rivers...

The foolish man thought Rivers people are Mumu like the drug lord’s bambiala tribe where ordinary humans are worshipped like deities. In SS and SE, every man is seen like the mere mortal they are.

Both Wike and Tinubu are going down at the same time. Very useless and stupid bunch.

Akpabio is becoming more stupid with each passing day.

Lol. Wetin dey pH? Everything bought in pH comes from Aba.

Lol, when you see post from an ignorant person, it’s not hard to detect. Most things they use in P.H, both goods and services come from Aba but how will that know when he has never stepped out of Obomosho village.

paramakina202:
I understand the hate is real but too much hyping,boasting attracts envy and jealousy just as Prof Chinua Achebe mentioned in his last novel 'There was a country' we should learn how to manage our success with maturity[b].We should rather be advertising and projecting Aba in more positive way for investors to take advantage of current situation of 24/7 electricity in Aba.[/b]Peace!

And where exactly did I boast or try to bring others down? If you haven’t noticed, a particular set of Nigerians always get envious and angry anytime there is signs of progress in the East. Trying to hide your potentials instead of projecting it for investors to key in is cowardice, especially when you do it because you don’t want to offend some people.

This project isn’t even from FG, so what exactly are you scared of?

Keeping Aba in the news for the right or positive reasons is what Igbos should be doing. There has been decades of bad news about Aba, so the city needs all the positive news it can get to override that!

paramakina202:
Our people do know how to manage success without noise unnecessarily attracting envy from friends and foes.
If Peter Obi had won na so dey go dey buy enemies for him from far and wide with too much boating and noise.

Lol, Nigeria’s oppressive mentality is finally getting to you guys. They want Igbos to remain subdued and timid ones are already falling for it.

If Obi had won, it is not necessarily any boasting or whatever will make them to hate him or bring him down, but same hate they have for you since before independence. Do you think Obi will do 5% of the evil Tinubu has done without the same North and west conniving to bring him down just like they did to Jonathan?

Stop trying to be timid to impress who will never like you regardless.

SMH.

Aba GDP per Capita is higher than Lagos (Aba city not Abia state)
You said hype is not necessary yet you said government should promote in the media. You are confused

He is confused. They don’t know the potential that been unleashed in Aba.

Now that the massive chains holding back the great elephant has been broken, the Enyimba city is about to assume the greatness it was destined to be.

Smart people are already making moves and positioning themselves and their assets/investments so they could benefit from the expected windfall.

When Ngozi Okonjo Iweala visited Aba, alongside the then Wolfensing, the two world renowned economists were shocked to discover that Aba was no different with the Asian tigers in terms of productivity and skills. However, unlike the Asians, Aba was suffering from gross infrastructural decay which frustrated their output. NOI then met Barth Nnaji and they discussed how Aba could be provided with 24/7 electricity, outside the ubiquitous & redundant national grid. Barth Nnaji, one of Nigeria’s greatest engineers took up the gauntlet. Despite decades of sabotage to frustrate the project by enemies, Barth Nnaji persevered. Today, Aba has taken away Nigeria’s shame of being a generator republic. At least, we can now argue that some places in Nigeria enjoy 24/7 power supply!

The number of containers leaving Onne seaport to Aba and other parts of East has witnessed an upsurge but it’s going to skyrocket soon. P.H is going to reap massive windfall from Aba.

Aba skyline is going to change in just 16 years from now. Don’t be shocked when you see bulldozers demolishing 4 storey buildings along Azikiwe road or other roads in main town to pave way for 12 storey blocks of flats. Neither should you be surprised when you see 20 storey hotel being built around the city. If Aba people could have the courage to build 5 storey residential apartments with epileptic power supply & no lifts, what do you think will happen now that there is 24/7 power supply? Your guess is as good as mine!

The first three pictures is Aba 2024.
The last picture is how Aba is going to be in 2040.

Two of Nigeria’s greatest footballers of all times in one picture. Putin likes being in the midst of Blacks, that’s one thing I like about him.

Olachase:
work day Abia?

Lol, the number of yorubas working in companies in Aba will shock you. Back in the early 2000’s, after my WAEC, we used to go to industrial layout to look for manual labor work and I know the uncountable number of yorubas I usually meet. Unilever, Nigerian breweries, Pfizer, Niemeth, Vitafoam and many other factories were located there. Now, that’s just one industrial estate in Aba, there were others at Osisioma, Eziama etc.

Aba has always been among the most industrialized cities in Nigeria. I guess it’s going to witness a boom now.

Site Your Business In Aba for Quick Return On Investment.

When the 4th Turbine of Geometric IPP is switch on by the end of April everything will be complete.

Site your Hotels, Fastfoods Restaurants, Factories etc in Aba and you won't have anything to do with running cost on dieseling and servicing your soundproof generator and thereby making more profit.

No loud am bro. Smart investors are already moving their production plants to Aba en mass. Do you know what constant and relatively cheap power supply can do to any business?

Lol, watch how the slum dwellers from the waste will start crying over this piece of good news from Aba😂😂

Very senseless people with witchcraft mindset.

Spit!

This same old man has continued fooling himself since 20 years now. Spit!

No Dey jonze yourself. Fabian Nwigbo is even the most realistic by quoting the lowest figures. Those demanding for those high figures are only playing to the gallery.

If minimum wage is close to a million naira, how much will those higher up earn? Has Nigeria suddenly become very wealthy?

Even the paltry 30k minimum wage, many states are yet to implement it. Very unserious country!

This country is gone. I have never seen any normal country where government policy is always aimed at impoverishing the masses. Other progressive countries take pride in the number of people they take out of poverty but in this worthless country, the cursed rulers only enjoy seeing millions going down the abyss of poverty.

Spit!

Putindbutt:
Una don start with this drone pictures again, no be from Abia one papa take kill his son because of food, feed yourselves first before bringing out your dick for measurement.

Unlike the slum region where over 90% of their houses are decayed.

Na them, people with no morals nor decency. Imagine how the foolish minister was congratulating a criminal. Same way they support Tinubu because of tribalism.

Spit!

heniford2:
Akuko not possible

Hater, can you say why it’s not possible?

Igbos or Igboid groups are probably the largest ethnicity in the SS, yet when the term SE and SS is mentioned despite other factors like geography and demographics aligning both regions, the same insecure buffoons from the slum region will start foaming in the mouth.

Spit!

Tellmeastory:
Same thing I’m wondering, my brother.

We set up something like this, and the first thing we think of is to fill it up with foreigners.

What about our own people?

How will they grow?

When the Chinese and Indians set up these facilities in their countries, they don’t look for foreigners to fill up the place. It’s for their own local industries and business people.

Lol, you talk like it’s not Igbos here. We take competition to others in their home turf and win them hands down yet you believe we can’t compete with Indians in our own land?

No country or region in the world can truly become an economic giant by doing it alone. Even China that once closed its borders had to eventually open it and that was when they became the most enterprising and most economically prosperous nation in the world. We need the Chinese and Indians to come and invest while we watch and compete in any areas we can.

We are not oftenmanu people that will live in slums and do agbero while outsiders dominate everywhere .

Lol, it’s a free world so he is entitled to join any group he wants but without Obidient movement, he will become obscure and forgotten in no time.

OfficialAPCNig:
Yoruba man rest, go get your information right before you disgrace yourself.

The project covers 9 LGAs not 7. It needs 100MW to be FULLY powered, the excess 88MW will be offloaded to the national grid. So, we have extra 88MW to cater to new industries and again the plant is upgradable to over 500MW.

Geometric is not waiting for gas. It already built a 27KM gas pipeline to supply it from Owaza.

It’s really a comic relief watching them exhibit their hate and bigotry for all Nigerians to see.

I’m really enjoying how they’re making a fool of themselves here😂😂

OfficialAPCNig:
You even have time for all these people. Their almight LAGOS has 6 IPP and all combined generate 47MW and these guys want to shame a city that is generating 188MW from a single plant and 9.5MW from another IPP.

Although it would have been better to ignore them considering how naive and ignorant they sound. However, the arrogance they exude even in mind-boggling idiocy ought to be punctured otherwise they will deceive gullible people.

Imagine that boy saying that IPP that uses gas (in one of the world’s most prolific gas regions) has become obsolete? Only large doses of hate and ignorance will cause this.

Putindbutt:
The only saving grace of Geometric was that he completed the project at the time electricity bill has already been passed. Lagos govt does not need to generate power itself, investors, communities, individuals, companies, tertiary institutions would do that. ignorant folks should pick up the bill and read.

Aba is already off the national grid and has become Nigeria’s first modern city to enjoy 24/7 power supply yet this boy said it’s not worth celebrating and in the same breath saying that Lagos will achieve same in the future😂😂

Only bigotry will make one to sound so foolish without even knowing 😂😂

I repeat, your ignorance is quite disturbing and you keep disgracing yourself and whatever you represent. So, an independent power plant that uses gas is not good enough? Gas Nigeria has in abundance, particularly Igboland? Do you know what it means to have an IPP in Aba and huge gas reservoirs just a few miles away? What other sort of power generation could be more viable than that?

You said no sensible state will use IPP now they have full control of power generation and distribution, so can you tell us what they would use? Please tell reasonable Nigerians what your states will build that won’t be IPP? If you fail to do that then you’re sick and should be totally ignored.

TopBanter:
IPP are not required anymore. Gerrit? Where do you see IPP being default electrification solution in nations of the world that had not boxed itself into a corner like Nigeria did with centrist government control of processes the FG should have deregulated decades ago to place in the hands of direct stakeholders and end-users i.e Nigerian States and people?


No sensible State will use IPP now that they have full control of generation, transmission and distribution of power which means they can devise comprehensive power solutions for a whole State instead of have cumbersome IPP schemes all over the place.

Just swallow your pride. IPP is not and cannot be in the mind of ambitious Nigerian States led by ambitious leaders given how the power sector is fully and completely deregulated today.

No wonder the country is dying and millions are totally hopeless. Imagine this one trying to justify why Dangote is importing crude oil from the United States?!

This country really deserve to be where it is now.

Spit!

ahaz:
Oga I have noticed that since the news of Aba power breakthrough came up you have lost sleep ever since, I will advice you to brazen up and write your will cos our achievements will definitely kill you before your time, take this from me.

Since any good news from Igboland gives them high BP, they should ready for untimely deaths because more good news are coming from the East. By the time Shell and Nestoil completes West Africa’s biggest gas production projects in Imo State they will be dead. At least the projects are worth more than anything in their states except no man’s land😂

Yet the $1 billion USD power generation investment by Geometric was made in Aba and not Lagos. Can’t you see the joke is on you?!

LegendHero:
Nonsense statistics that Nigerians project. Which GDP per capital? Where Abia or Aba wan see the GDP per capital? Which statistical agency talk the nonsense?

If you have a $1bn investment to make, where will you situate it? Aba or Lagos?

Which of the two states has the most purchasing power?

Another page filled with rubbish and no substance. After writing the trash, you couldn’t even provide any tangible evidence except a senseless analogy.

Okay, since IPP has become obsolete, can you tell Nigerians what replaced it?

Ignorant and crassly insecure lots that are always triggered even with things that doesn’t concern them. Hausas saw the post and remained calm because they’re not insecure. Same with the middle belt, SS etc but the perennial insecure ones jumped in and started pouring spit everywhere.

Is there anywhere they mentioned your tribe, region or states? Are you the only ones in Nigeria?

Pathetic and primitive people.

TopBanter:
You're a coward. I am one of those who took you to task for your misinformation, driven by your inferior complex and insecurity, so stop pretending to be a victim.

You hailed something as Nigeria's "saving grace" and I simply tride to tell you to tone down your ignorant megalomania and backtrack.

IPP today is as much a saving grace as the phone shown below has anything to teach an iPhone 15 or a Samsung S23 currently.

I don't know why you people lack humility so much. You offend by deliberately peddling misinformation so you can praise the ' messianic' capability of the Igbo man yet when corrected you begin to play victim of envy and bad belle from others.

When the DAWN commision identified the joint electrification of the SW as a gamechanger as far back as 2013 and Tinubu, in 2000, had already delivered a pacesetting IPP project, does it make sense any Yoruba will envy you people obsessed with celebrating mediocrity?

Just learn to curb your ignorant megalomania abeg.
