Ibeto is not serious about manufacturing. As a matter of fact he has never produced 1kg of cement before.

.

Nigeria has 4 cement companies, 10 plants. 22 lines.
Dangote
Bua
La farge
Purechem.

With one soon to be commissioned.
Mangal

With one seeking funds to build.

Madugu.

The cost of is cement is driven by 3 pointers .
Cost of gas which continues to increase.
Cost of hauling both for direct production and indirect.
Cost of spare parts which is forex denominated.

Some people think to grind marble and limestone is like a blender grinding tomatoes. This plates are very expensive and dollar expensive. Besides you will need to protect your profit margin at all cost.

Solution to bring the price down.

An additional building of 10 new cement companies could do the magic. Encouraging private sector to participate more like the governor's leading the charge.
Stop issuance to cement companies with more than 4 plants from acquiring new mining license.
Involve flsmidth and sinoma in building and training and transfer of technology to the locals.
A new policy on modular cement plant can encourage the building of 50 modular plant with annual capacity of 50,000 MTTPA Yahoo boys can be encouraged to do this.

10 new companies can have the site in the following area.

1.Ogun makun area
2. Ondo okeluse area.
3. Ebonyi effium/nkalagu area.
4. Abia arochukwu area
5. Enugu
6. Cross River.
7. Nasarawa
8.Gombe
9. Adamawa
10.sokoto.

The key is simple in order to stop crony capitalism in the sector or oligopolism. We need to stop the existing 5 players from having more than 4 plants.

Then areas with lack of sufficient limestone can look into LC3 type of cement.

The answer is No.
1 The same person who is the president is also Chariman.
2 Two persons are in focus namely the president and the chairman.
The two examples are problem areas in the concord as a syntactic concept.

Please note that in "Two third of Nigeria Ghana Morroco South Africa. Uganda, the Gambia, Mali, Guinea and the USA are needed , we imply that 2/3 of the nine countries are needed. Article"the' before the Gambia and the USA does not make them special.It only makes them unique in terms of meaning. .The same thing applies to " 36 countries and the FCT ..." FCT requires article because it the only capital city of Nigeria not any other city. So 37 states are in focus in the Nigerian constitution.
Base on your concord rule .
24 state and FCT.
24 state and the FCT
should be treated the same while the insertion of the article THE has no bearing on agreement with the Intial clause is more of claiming an exclusivity to a compound word. The right legal geographic name of Abuja is FCT and not The FCT. When The is used in legal geographic naming it denotes a use of sovereignty that is exclusive in commonwealth realms.

This implies that two third of 9 people mist come. Daniel is not special and no emphasis is placed on him
Any Six of the Nine persons will make 2 /3 majority.
That is what the B section of the constitution refers to. FCT is added to the 36 states making 37states. Please note that AND can show addition separately or in togetherness. The latter is our focus here..
1. Taiwo and Kehinde are here. 2 persons in separation
2.Two third of Taiwo Kehinde ,John Yemi Ade Micheal Femi Grace AND Daniel must come tomorrow....9 persons in togetherness are our focus
3. The Ooni of Ife and President of Osun Council of Obas is here.1 person is our focus here.even when AND is used to connect the two titles.

Strafudeen:


It is necessary because of the lopsided distribution of States. The south east has been shortchanged and has fewer States than others and so a person whose base is in the south east has the short end of the stick already. But with the fct which contrary to what you say, must indeed be populated by federal civil servants selected by federal character , every tribe is adequately represented almost equally by virtue of that federal character . So it neutralises the effect of the lopsided distribution of States, and acts as a real test of the popularity of rhe candidate across the nation.

Your argument is baseless and not substantial. First the constitution doesn't recognize geopolitical zones. They where created just for political exigences. Nothing stop a rearrangement that puts Benue in south east and move kaduna to north central.

Some things varying does not change what the constitution has designated it as which is FCT is like other states.. No advantage..

😂 You are comedian. The constitution specify that no matter the landmass number of LGA or population that each state is entitled to 3 senators with FCT an exception. By landmass fct is bigger than Lagos, Anambra, imo, ebonyi and abia. So your argument holds no water. How many times was the word Kano mentioned in the constitution and compare it with the number of times FCT was mentioned.

What do you think the minister of the FCT is? If you even claim Abuja is not a state, then only states are eligible to vote for the President and that makes Abuja votes null and void. This is why the constitution includes Abuja as a State which any candidate can also get 25% to add to the overall votes. Otherwise Abuja 25% will not count as it’s the seat of power. For electoral purposes the constitution wants it to be seen as a State so the votes count equally and, citizens are not disenfranchised with their votes.
.

If we follow your thoughts process then fct deserve 3 senators and more House of representatives members. If not why make it a territory when it is not given special status. Besides is it included in the schedule list of state

Nigeria has 7 limestone deposits that has not been exploited. If they are 7 new cement plant can come in to kick the price downward.
It cost 700 million USD to build a 6MTTP cement plant.

7 multi millionaire in USD can build a cement plant.
Even 700 yahoo boys 😂 with a million dollar in contribution can build a cement plant if they trust themselves. Nigeria Profit margin on cement is the highest in the world. At 200% of the cost of production. The truth is that we have a lot of portfolio investors mindset in Nigeria.

5) Ikwerre
6) Ekpeye
7) Obigbo

EDO STATE
10) Igbanke/Igboakiri
In fact most people do not even know that Arch Bishop Benson Idahosa and his wife are Igbo from Igbanke in Uhuonde Local Government area of EDO state that was formerly in Orhionwon LGA .
The mother of the late Samuel Odaigbovo Ogbemudia is Igbanke!
Most indigenes of this town just like Ika people bear hybrid names that most often could just jolly well pass as EDO because of their names like Nduka Irabor, Jim Ovia, Omorogie Nwawanne, Collins Edumaruse etc.

DELTA STATE
11) Ika
12) Ndokwa
13) Ukwuani
14) Aniocha

BAYELSA STATE
16) Osekwenike, Abuetor and Eke Okpokri villages, all in Sagbama area of bayelsa, are all Igbo of Ukwuani stock, and as such, are of the Anioma igbo clan of the Igbo ethnic group in BAYELSA
.
.
CROSS RIVER STATE
17) ISOBO , even Liyel Imoke former CR governor and wife are igbos from ABI LGA – CROSS RIVER
.
.
AKWA IBOM STATE
18) Ikot Udo Ika in Ika Local Government area of Akwa Ibom is an Igbo community.
.
.
BENUE STATE
19)The Igbos in Benue State particularly those in Ado, Oju, Obi and Okpoku LGAs of the state were in existence before the advent of Christian religion in Nigeria.
The Igbo found in Benue are: Umuezeokoha, Umuezeoka, Oriuzor, Umuoghara, Amaekka and Amaezekwe all in Ezza communities, Izzi, Ezzamgbo and Effium, these are the people who would have been in present-day Ebonyi State but due to the fact that the Nigerian government then carved them into Benue in order to suppress the population of the East.

Apart from the Ezza-speaking clan, particularly the people of Umuezeokoha that has over 300 villages, if you are to calculate the number of Igbo-speaking villages in Benue State, outside Umuezeokaoha, you would be talking altogether about over 600 villages.

Three of the biggest markets in Benue are all in the Igbo-speaking part. The markets are Inikiri Ichari, Iddah, Iduokpe. There are also some Igbo speaking Idoma towns in Benue State.
.
.
KOGI STATE
20) THE indigenouse Igbo-speaking communities in Kogi state especially in Ibaji and Igalamela/Odolu LGAs are Eke Avurugo community, such as Nwajala, Umuoye, Ubulie-Umuez, Ozara, and Umuoye and many more.
© Alaigbo

Me: Let's talk about this...have you been to these places and did you observe Igbo culture and language particularly in places on the list which exist outside the Southeast?

.

Add all this together taraba is still bigger than it. State creation is not done to Be equal nowhere is such done even in India and Brazil. We continue to make noise about marginalization. If we are sincere to our selves the population of all the south East is equivalent to Ogun and Lagos population yet the 2 state has just 40 LGA, 6 senate seats while the south East has 99 LGA and 15 seats. We just like deceiving ourselves.

DOTian:
Whenever the South East talks about the need to create a state or two in the East to sort the injustice in this area , since the other regions have more, they're quickly reminded of how there are no resources to carter for already existing ones. All of a sudden, chronic state looters will start vomiting all sorts of crafty reasons to make the case for more states look out of place and greedy.

But if you ask the same people arguing against more states because of meager resources to remove one state each from their zones together with some local governments too, so we can "cut down on government expenses", they will all disappear! They don't want to hear that! Vehemently, they refuse... Essentially, they want to keep their states and Local governments, while preaching to the East to have less. Cunning much?

This is how 2 states in the North,(Kano and Katsina) ended up having almost the same amount of Local Governments with the whole South East... Kano municipal alone has almost the same amount of LGAs with Bayelsa state!
Sick people..

Ezeama400:


The bolded is not true.. Gowon abolished regional government and created 12 states.. Your lies and propaganda can never be true despite repeating it million times..

[b]Before Gowon became head of state in August 1966, Nigeria was a federation of

1) 4 semi-autonomous Regions
2) Each Region had resource control
3)Each Region kept 50% of whatever accrued within it, paid the Federal Government 25% and the rest 25% went into a General account that all the Regions including the Federal Government could use for developmental purpose.
4)Because the 4 Regions were semi-autonomous, it made the centre week and prevented any Region from dominating another

Today, we have

1)36 states that have little or no resource control
2) A powerful Federal government that now pays the states
3)Fiscal federalism is dead

How did we get here? It was Gowons promulgation of Decree 14 on the 27th of May 1967 that caused it all. It was this same decree that forced Ojukwu to declare the Eastern Region a seperate country called Biafra 3 days later and this led to the war. It should also be added that decree 14 was a violation of the Aburi agreement that both Gowon and Ojukwu signed in Ghana.


Decree 14, abolished the 4 Regions, replaced them with 12 states, took away resource control, reversed fiscal responsibility and made the federal government all powerful

It was seen for what it was by Ojukwu and the Eastern Region, a calculated attempt by Gowon and his Northern cohorts to dominate everyone.

Suddenly, the North that was one Region, had 6 states while the South that was 3 Regions had to share 6 states between them. This effectively made the North the dominant partner[/b]


Subsequent military administration's led by Northerners subdivided the 12 states Gowon created, and gave the North more states and local governments than the south

Today, the North that was one Region has overwhelming advantage over the South that was 3 Regions

1) The North has 19 states while the south has 17

2)Of the 109 Senators in Nigeria, the North has 59 while the south has 50

3) Of the 360 house of rep members, the North has 191 while the South has 169

4) Of the 774 Local Governments in Nigeria, the North has 419 while the South has 355

This undue advantage given to the North, starting with Gowons decree 14 which changed the structure of Nigeria, is what led to war and created the mess Nigeria is in today

Know your history..

I am done with you.. Bye

Don't be annoyed oh.
But is the landmass the same.
Even in USA the headquarters of the so called democracy still have some state having more than the others. Mokwa and Toro LGA is bigger than Anambra state.
