Which Ekwueme?... so he gave himself five States...
It's the northerners
They only used him just like they're using Rotimi Amaechi today...

The South are known to parade fools as politicians... Just look at the Enugu Governor... A known fool

So Stella Oduah that turn Imo Airport that was experienced flood since it was built into a seaport after billion dollar renovation when she was a minister should take credit for airports renovated long after she was long gone ?!

Someone needs to give the OP a Zombie antidote, seems our darling daddy has instructed them to tarnish GEJ's good works in the country in a bid to take attention away from his incompetence.

This is very commendable and I believe that when completed, it will increase economic outputs from these three big states. It is also very helpful to local content capacity development.
Curiously, on a quick search of the companies that won this multi billion naira contract, I am pleasantly impressed that it is Icomtel Nigeria Limited , an indigenous company owned by an Igbo man in partnership with a publicly listed Chinese company.


When here on Nairaland some of our Igbo brothers complain against this administration, all I see his hatred and bigotry against others not the truth.

Today, the multibillion naira (about N10billion) contract for extending power to the North East states of Yobe, Borno and Adamawa state was approved by the patriotic duo PMB- PYO( both hated mostly by some Igbos) administration on the recommendation of the Minister of Power , Engnr Saleh, a northerner, and the contract was given to an Igbo man.

Be good is not the meaning of bosere. It's actually an adage. Bosere, boosere, wa ba eru e nibode. You do good, you don't do good, you will surely get your reward at the end. We had like 4 dogs then (early 90s), Bosere, Kaleoda, Efin and Maforoloka. There wasn't a single day we don't eat bush meat then. Wonderful memories. Those dogs are the real hunters I have ever known.

It's almost impossible to enter into a Family in Imo and not get a PhD holder.

Imo might just be retaining the top spot for 7more years if not for ever.

It's just so painful that we have not been blessed with visionary leaders.

A state with such maximum high level of man power, should be in the forefront of development in every sphere.

God bless Imo state
God bless Ala Igbo

On a lighter note


From knowing someone's name/surname, you can know his tribe. This phenomenon is very noticeable especially of you want to tell what somebody's tribe is. But so you know that even within tribes like Igbo and Yoruba, by knowing someone's surname, you can actually tell the person's state of origin. They are certain Igbo and Yoruba names you hear and instantly know the state of Origin of the bearer.

I'm Igbo and so I'll use Igbo as an example since that's the one I'm conversant with




For example: Kalu and Kanu are mostly bore by people from Abia (and the Afikpo South people of Ebonyi like gospel singer Sinach Kalu)

Arinze, Emeka, Okoye, Okolie is mostly Anambra people

Nwosu is Imo and Anambra

Okocha is Anioma (Igbo from Delta)

Egwu and Ekuma are most Ebonyi



My encounter with this phenomenon in Yoruba land was when I told my friend about my boss and how my boss has a rebellious nature. When I told him the surname of my boss is Onifade, he said and I quote, "No wonder, he is an Ekiti man".

Another example is Adeleke which is mostly Osun

Can you give us more examples? Let's enlighten ourselves

jaxxy:
Nope Igbo President. We don’t want old men that are barely active. Nigeria’s issues are to many are inactive old men. We have seen it with Buhari. Cabals start to run government.

jaxxy:
Jagaban shud give us a young president of Igbo extraction come 2023 and he will be remembered as a father of democracy in Nigeria.

Obalatule:
We yoruba people are the problem of the country honestly

chatinent:
So that the fraudsters will find delight in another person's sweat?

Easternmind:
Thanks for this.
But most top politicians in Nigeria,will not think properly or act like reasonable humans,only self gratification and how to steal more from national budget.
I don't judge,but God will judge some people with wrath and destruction.
