Let the pictures keep flowing...............

Oraeri-Akwaeze road...................

Anambra has the best road network traversing all corners of the state...

Cool!

It is not true. Owerre airport is more or less a motorpark. Owerre airport can never even be #15 in the country. Those stats are very inaccurate..

Ikengawo:
Owerri airport is #4 more successful in Nigeria and I can tell you now that there are several Imo indigines in the US that don't even know their state has an airport so the success hasn't even begun. While the SE has an abnormally high concentration of airports, Igbos do an abnormally high amount of traveling. Enugu Airport is booming from recent numbers as is Imo and I'm sure Asaba and Port are doing well. These airports are ironically the least well advertised in Nigeria (we Igbos aren't good at advertising). With good advertisement we would probably need to add one in Aba and Anambra to meet demand.

New pictures loading Oraeri, Akwaeze etc....................

Buddah do you have this sort of road in Okija? Below is Osumenyi....................

You are not making any point. Let those airports shut down so that the air space will not be tight because whether enemies like you want it or not Anambra International Cargo/Passenger airport will stand soonest!

Bringing in billions? Where will that billions enter? Are we still operating regional government? Or you want people from another state to drive traffic for you just because you don't want them to build theirs. Let every state which wishes to build an airport build at the end of the day some of them will naturally shut down because there will be no customer traffic nor business to drive it.

mensdept:
Seriously? Another airport in a already tight airspace. Asaba get airport, Enugu get, Owere, Port Harcourt, Uyo, they all get.

Why not make (and perhaps the one in Enugu is in process) one of these airports World Class and well managed, thereby bringing in billions in the region. Let other areas focus on other things

Anambrans doing Africa proud all around the world...................

The Anambra born novelist, political columnist, and essayist, Okey Ndibe has been named as the African Writer of the Year 2014 by USAfrica.

Okey lives in West Hartford, CT, with his wife, Sheri, and their three children.

Okay we don hear. Have a nice time..

Ikengawo:
Question 1: Crude Oil, Palm Oil, Consumer Goods
Question 2: LOL
Question 3: LOL

This is Phase one where they built only bungalows. The fencing are still low and see through..

Myluv1:
The height was to deter criminals. Hopefully it starts changing as from now that aura of security is being felt. Govt can as well help enact such laws prohibiting high perimeter fencing at certain places. I could remember when Obi mandated all fences along main roads be pulled down, I witnessed some of them being bulldozed.

Do you know what is GDP= Gross Domestic Product?

What does Imo state as state produce?

Development indices? Since when has proliferation of brothels in all the streets become development?

My friend you are insulting and embarrassing Imolites here by making people to say what they should have kept under the table..

Ikengawo:
Higher GDP and GDP Per Capita as well as higher development indices

Richer in what sense? Isn't clear to you that you are goofing around here? Someday a jaywalker like you will come and say that Osun is richer than Lagos. That is what you are implying here. It is very laughable to say the least..

Ok we don hear, oya go with that 'notion' if that will make you sleep well tonight..bye

Ikengawo:
It's because we're intelligent lol. Nna I'm not going to be a part of this Igbo vs. Igbo fight but if you tell me the sky is pink I will say it's blue and that's not an insult to the color pink. Imo state is richer than Anambra state, I'm not going to concede this to spare your feelings because it's the truth.

But Ngozika estates fencing still exposes the beauty of the houses..

OdenigboAroli:
I think our people just lack ideas,because there are other mean you can use to safeguard your home,which is even cheaper. Like security alarms monitor. When trespassers touches your fence/door it comes on with red and blue light and wakes the whole neighborhood. This to me is more reliable than 20ft fence.

Ngozika estates is a gated villa. They have a spec concerning fencing..usually very low fence with iron grill..so you could actually see the beauty of the house.

OdenigboAroli:
And they make ot so high that it hides the beauty of the house and thats not good for the city aesthetics. Even if they want to fence the building why cant they design a more fanciful type that will reflect to the streets. And what about wire fence with bushes and flowers planter around it to radiate beauty.

Anambra is the SE biggest economy. Whatever you feel cannot change that fact which even the World Bank is aware of..

Ikengawo:
The do the same in Aba/Abia, to arguably a greater extent.

Hmm! Phyno na real big boy oo..

It was even my friend that stays in that estate told me, that was why I took a snapshot. Well you could be right though..

Is just that I think Phyno being an Anambra boy may decide to build it as 'Aku luo uno'

OdenigboAroli:
I hear you....But I think Phyno is renting that house. That is a castle ooo. Even P-Square cant afford that house.

Next time you won't say am not anywhere near Anambra..

cjrane:
Bro,
Thanks a lot for your efforts.
Biko,Keep it rolling. Don't be distracted again.

Iwe ga egbu ndi anya ufu

You have my permission. Go ahead..

MOBJECTIVE:
I hope that's a positive okay. If you like i could begin the thread with your permission, using the pictures you already posted here. So you dont need to go through the hassle of reposting all over again. Whatever you decide

Okay!

MOBJECTIVE:
Even better, you can team up with spyder880 to make a share your Christmas in the southeast thread based on your pictures. Then maybe others will follow your leads and contribute to make for an interesting thread.

*modified*
Really nice pictures so far. Im surprised at how much you're putting into this

Lets pause for a commercial break!

I saw this as I stepped out in my village to see some cousins..

I don't want my brother to go to Senate but I want the best candidate to be there. If Andy Uba is the best then let him return to the Senate...............

Nigerians like fencing like peppersoup..

Udoka estates continues................


Udoka estates is fully bought and built but they are opening up an extension of it..

OdenigboAroli:
Those big fences make Nigerian houses ugly and the inner streets need to be edged up and marked.

Below is Udoka estate, I think Ngozika estate beats it..............

Imo state has got nothing. The only place they are ahead of Anambra is brothel business, outside that nothing more..

cjrane:
What that Ikengawo guy likes is ATTENTION.

Please let us ignore him. Read his previous posts and see where he is arguing with Yorubas that Federal allocation is the reason why SW states appear to have greater GDP than SE states.
Now he is preaching against his own principle because it concerns Anambra?

Biko, stop responding to the drunkard!

Remember how he tried to derail this thread here https://www.nairaland.com/1930337/anambra-state-light-nationeconomic-political/107#29006427

Do not mistake brothel and prostitution business for tourism. People rather go to Calabar and Akwaibom for tourism for now..Anambra will soon join when Agulu Lake Resort is completed!

Anambra has a broad based economy from Industries to commerce to auto manufacturing and now oil and gas, a refinery to go by. We equally have good tourism sites that are being developed to a world class standard. Again Anambra has the largest number of banks outside Lagos and Rivers in Nigeria, which mean there are as much as corporate workers in Anambra as much as Rivers and Lagos.

Orlu-Imo state people are 98% of traders at Headbridge drug market..

Ikengawo:
No, Anambra has the most bank branches outside of Lagos.

I think the issue is that most of Anambra's economy, or a sizeable amount, is in trading, which recycles the same money where as Imo has things like Oil and tourism that brings new money in. Both states have industry as well.

Do you know that 1/4th of Imo population are resident in Anambra where they earn their living? And you will search like American visa before you see a single Anambran in Imo state. So how could Imo state be richer when all of them are running out of the state like hell? lol

Stop embarrassing yourself here..

Ikengawo:
notice how I haven't resorted to insults lol. Tomorrow you will all say I was insulting and hate Anambra because I said, as the facts show, that Imo is richer than Anambra.

Post all the link you want it does not change the facts on the ground. lolzzzz

There is even a link that says that Imo state has more banks than Anambra and Rivers..lolzzz

Ikengawo:
lol ok [/img]

As for Greenwood, you need to stuff your bag with ego igwe..well I will like you to buy from both areas.

That place will be the biggest thing to happen to Nigeria..going by the type of infrastructures they are doing there.

Below is Phyno's mansion at Ngozika estates..I just found out yesterday when I was discussing with my friend!

OdenigboAroli:
Lol...Am a big boy?
We will talk later.....Remember what I told you about Greenwood. But Olisa ka odi na aka.

I wonder oo. He just want to feel good..

OdenigboAroli:
Ekwulobia and Ihiala probably has more banks than Imo. Nobi where money dey wey bank dey go ?

Yes. Email me here so I can send you my number: fanfan725@yahoo.com

vanbonattel:
can we meet in awka?
am still around

Ikengawo, Anambra GDP as at 2011 was over a Trillion. Show us what your Imo state was as at then..




AWKA — THE Minister of National Planning Commission and Minister of State for Works, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda, has commended Anambra State for the impressive rise in its Gross Domestic Product, GDP.
Speaking while presenting the pilot survey findings on the state GDP to the members of the State Executive Council at Governor’s Lodge, Yuguda attributed the phenomenal rise to purposeful leadership of Governor Peter Obi and viability and efficient implementation of Anambra State Integrated Development Strategy – ANIDS.
According to him, the state GDP grew from N735.80 billion in 2009 to N1.005 trillion in 2011, representing about 40 per cent growth.
On the pilot survey, the minister said the scheme conducted by the National Planning Commission with the National Bureau of Statistics in seven states selected from the six geo-political zones, was being implemented in two phases to be completed by December 2014.
He said data were generated based on production and income approaches, with agriculture recording 30 percent; industry, four percent; and service sector, 66 percent.

Stop posting rubbish just to feel good, we all know that apart from brothel business there is nothing more happening in Imo state..

Even Nnewi alone has more banks than Owerre. Fact!

Ikengawo:

Stop replying that thing..he is on drugs. How many times will I tell you this? Haba!

OdenigboAroli:
Okpo fa ndi azu...ayi akolibago nu.

Odenigbo please when next you come to Nigeria, I will like you to buy a land at Ngozika estates..it is a place to be. The neighborhood can only be compared to VGC. The Phase Two is on another level altogether..

This hood is strictly for big boys like you..

OdenigboAroli:
And you are correct ; Obi did more roads in the north because the" poverty mapping" carried out during his first tenure revealed Anambra north is the poorest region and the reason why. These people are mostly farmers with very fertile soil but they have no means of transportation. I.e roads and bridges. They were also mainly subsistence farmers,hence the resolve to build roads to these farming villages,give them tractors,seedlings and soft loans. And my nigga,THATS CREATION OF WEALTH RIGHT THERE.
