I on the other hand have no such desire as I am unlikely to profit from such commerce. It will be a total waste of my time

aribisala0:
Your parable makes a lot of sense TO YOU!!

aribisala0:
No I did not Anambra is the ONE QUEUING into it because other states ARE ALREADY EXPORTING without noise FOR YEARS Ogun exports ugu to the UK already but did you miss this part?

WHERE DOES THAT FIGURE COME FROM ? [/b]
,,


It is at best FANTASY and at worst a STUPID LIE

aribisala0:
That is a LIE it did not say that. YOU FOLK LIE A LOT

The word "EXPECTED" did not appear ANYWHERE

Go and read it and come back and apologize

Other Places are ALREADY doing business exporting Ugu with NO NOISE and NO FANFARE
There is frozen okro and ewedu and Ukazi and bitterleaf all over London for years
Frozen snails and all sorts Even Orijin and Nigerian Guiness. No one makes noise about these things so do not let anyone deceive you

aribisala0:
even if they are planting cannabis or coca leaves it won't generate that much

Cuche:
Obiano is doing well and very soon the State will not be relying on Fed Allocation, however,
only Ugu can't be cultivated and sold to generate $5 billion. It is not possible even if the whole of Anambra becomes a farmland for Ugu and the world consumes only made in Anambra Ugu.
Not even rice can cultivated in Anambra can generate that per annum. I will really like to know how they arrived at that projection.

gabicon:
I applaud the initiative, I just feel the numbers don't add up, $5billion with pumpkin leaves as the major cash crop doesn't make much sense. How many people or companies in the world consume or use pumkin leaves as raw material? Or better still who is the targeted market? If it were cassava as a major cash crop I would have believed it since it can be used to get starch and even alcohol. Good initiative by his Excellency at least he is doing something irrespective of if the numbers add up or not.

thundafire:
dy truth is dat dy car dnt have good spacing insyd too tight nd

tunisbaba:
It is a good thing to buy made in Nigeria things and i love what this man is doing but my concern is that, are Innoson Vehicles fabricated and assembled in Nigeria or the parts are shipped and assembled in the country. If the vehicles are not fabricated in Nigeria by Nigerian engineers, then there is nothing worth celebrating about Innoson Vehicle

Smh. My goodness gracious. You obviously think you are dealing with Alaba marketers coz you are not clever at all Mr. An indigenous company appoints a CEO of a foreign background and you are here displaying your ignorance. Ownership of a company is not determined by the CEO boy. A corporate entity's ownership is determined by who the founder is an his stake in the amount of shares. The board can fire and replace the CEO any day. Only a founder with controlling shares of 51% can remotely boast of ownership. Ifeanyi Uba's capital oil is in receivership coz he obviously lost control of the company he founded owing to debt financing and stuff. Unless you can prove that Tunji didn't found GZI and that he doesn't have controlling shares you have no right to tell me he doesn't own the company. Na bad belle dey worry you.

Flyoruboy:
You see, this is why you folks from your region will always remain fraudsters and will never be taken serious. You went from claiming the company is owned by foreign investors but managed by a Nigerian to listing the owners which 'group of foreign investors' are merely a component part of, to absolutely and mischievously excluding the Nigerian investors on the list. Word of advice: you are embarrassing your tribe as a bunch of immature and hopelessly bitter lot, all in your failed attempt to show a superiority that only exists in your infantile minds.

Flyoruboy:
Why don't you quote where it says that? You can't because you put your spin on it to mean what you want it to, which is a typical igbo trait. You all will shift goal posts/switch standards/even insert words that don't exist whenever you're exposed for the fraudulent species that you are. The Chairman of the Company is a Yorubaman. If you don't like that, go and ....

Flyoruboy:
I'm sorry but you're daft. How can an 'indigenous' company be 'owned' by foreign investors? That is an oxymoron dude. You people chose to redefine definitions and shift goal posts after you've been embarrassed by facts. You must be a product of those WAEC expo centers. Smh

forgiveness:
Bros, why you give me pictures without address and address without pictures ?

6) Premier Breweries: Bear (who is the owner?=prince eze)

7) Orange pharmacetical: Drugs (who is the owner?=tony ezenna)

eyeview:
Apart from Lagos and a few Ogun towns that border Lagos,the rest are still rustic and rural in setting. Ibadan which started out well,somehow entered on a reverse mode.
Objectively,on a regional level and even spread,I give it to south-south. A region that has Ph,Asaba,Warri,Yenagoa,Uyo,Benin city,Calabar,Ikot Ekpene,ughelli etc. Most state capitals in the south west don't come close to these towns.
Op,Let's be broad in our reasoning

DiademSh07:
LOL!
Are you arguing against what the whites wrote about their encounter with the ibos?
Secondly, are you refuting the well Known fact that Jaja was sold as a slave?
What about the kwashiorkor menace and cannibalism in ibo land during the civil war?

DiademSh07:
LOL!
Ibos were the only tribe that has no contact with each other. But rather lived in scattered hamlets where they were found naked and seen to dance around pot of boiling human meat, not to mention selling their fellow brothers as slaves! Case study is Jaja of Opobo!
The coming of the Whites is the best thing to have ever happened to you cannibalistic cave men!
No wonder they couldn't feed themselves and resorted to cannibalism during the civil war! Kwashiorkor! Hian!
