Soludo is judiciously implementing his manifesto. Not giving silly excuses like Politicians do. Pleading that there is no money or other blah blah blah! Everything in his manifesto including making education free in all Anambra public schools (from primary 1 to JSS3) is being systematically implemented! That is how you know a leader who honors his word as his bond!
For those of them who say he only talks without following it up with action. If we can get more SE governors to empower youths with productive SKILLS rather than dash them bags of rice and yams, the unemployment and poverty in society will gradually disappear someday. A certain Igbo state needs this type of program urgently rather than building elitist airports where citizens cannot fly. But this isn't to bash anyone as airports are also good investments, but investing in one's people is what makes the entire society better for all of us!
All the sorry youths in this thread writing lies in the interest of the shady politicians they are trying to help come to power to simply begin stealing, lying, and blaming the previous regime while amassing unbelievable wealth for themselves should learn from the lamentation of "Emi lo kan" youths now chanting a new slogan "ebim m pawo"!

Dirty aba pig go and jump into river Niger because you are useless in life and nothing is happening in your life except jumping from one thread to another spewing nonsense. Your abia state is the worst and most backward state in Nigeria but you walk around and post nonsense everywhere to deceive yourself. Miserable ibibio man
Nigercity: Make you no go drink sniper on top Igbo matter, am not from Abia, and The thread is not about Abia or igala But continued I betNothing much is going on, in your life except this So enjoy Carry on
Learn how not to explain yourself to people. This poster is from Enugu state, you need to start by asking him if his backward useless worthless dirty Enugu has such machine . Learn to know how to ferociously enter envious bitter people and not explaining anything to them because they don’t mean well
Jcoleworld911: How much does one machine cost and how many of them are they going to buy??
This is a welcome development, same policy should be enforced in onitsha as soon as possible
Stop explaining yourself to people. Awka has ten lanes superhighways already. The guy you are quoting is someone from the backward Abia state that his state capital Umuahia is still a glorified rural and worst capital in Nigeria.
Jcoleworld911: 10 lanes isn’t going to be possible again in Awka axis, so many buildings ie hotels, industries, churches will go down and I don’t think that Anambra has such money
Dirty abia man from the dirty abia state. Umuahia is a glorified rural but instead you are here deceiving yourself mumu haha
Nigercity: What concerns umuahia in this thread now ; You must be thinking am from umuahia l I look like someone you know before ?;You igbophobic folks over here on Nairaland Have a very funny way of reasoningD
Umuahia which has continued to be a glorified village should emulate Awka in having signature infrastructures like flyovers, multi lane highways, beautiful well planned estates , etc
Nigercity: Awka is not doing bad What soludo needs to do is expanded that onistha-enugu federal road to 10 lanes like Peter Obi did on the onistha section plant tress around it, with the already 3 repainted flyovers on that road awka will automatically become 10× more beautiful
Onye Uchu you have never called out your incompetent Enugu state governor, that was how gburu gburu wasted eight years while you keep fooling yourself
Enugu is still a dirty slum but you are not using the same foreign equipments you are yapping about .
This is how you bigoted ediot will always camp in Anambra related thread while your useless worthless dirty Enugu is still in shambles with no government presence.
christejames: And they are still using crude implements? What happened to machines that sweep the dust of roads? :-Our leaders love traveling abroad and seeing all these cutting edge implements but once the return to the country the breeze at the airport will return their brains to that anachronistic factory setting, doing things the odd way with all glee. Ndi uchu!
Nairaland billionaire, your wealth is always in nairaland while in reality you are struggling to eat once a day . Tufia
lol
Abagworo: I get my photos from online and nobody pays me to post them. I've been a millionaire in Dollars since my 20s and I am now in my 40s so I do not need and have never needed anybody's money to air my views. My views are based on my own knowledge of events and not influenced by sentiments or monetary inducement so if I discover more facts and change my views on any issue it remains me.
This is a factual statement coming from an imo indigene, not the lies and propaganda being peddled here .
Owerri is a ghetto ? Hahaha
marshman293: Since Rochas left,Owerri has become a ghetto filled with dilapidated infrastructure and filthy environment. Nothing is going on there, insecurity has driven alot of potential investors,night life is dead ,poor sanitary condition and infrastructure has crushed the state emotionally and psychologically.
Shut up your dirty smelly mouth. The only reason you don’t like chino is because he won’t allow you spew any nonsense without you getting a well deserved response. Useless cursed envious miserable destitute. Without chino you ediots would have over run Anambra with lies and propaganda. You can’t have your way here
Unbiased1: Bros abeg don't start anything. For like 10 years now we have known Chino to be the only destitute and useless entity on this platform disturbing all the Igbo threads, we can't afford to have 2 people doing it. Let's just ignore Chino. He has quoted my comments twice already but I did not respond, that is how it should be done. There is no benefit in destroying the Anambra thread because of a lowlife who is not even from Anambra.
Why are you pained that Owerri is a glorified village ? Mumu as if your nuisance with your numerous monikers can change anything. Keep crying. I am still waiting for you to bring up the debate so we can compare Obiano, Soludo and Okezie projects
Trollronaldo: Anambra people, I am going to tear this thread apart because of your silly brother. I swear. If you can tame your animal, he will put you in trouble.
Miserable inferior cursed ebonyi people are slaves to Anambra people. Anambra people regard you ebonyi people as their slaves. Go to Anambra and see how ebonyi people are treated like donkeys. Ebonyi state is full of illiterates and miscreants that’s why anyone from Anambra is see like America by ndi ebonyi. You people are third class igbos
Ebubu2: Get out of here. Gov Nwifuru is greater than every man in Anambra bar in Ebonyi state. So whenever any Anambra man comes to Ebonyi state, he must bow to Governor of Ebonyi state.
Just look at how you are pained and hyperventilating because of a simple comment lots of you wawa people make all the time in the cyberspace. But once someone from Anambra makes such statement it becomes an issue. Bunch of bigotic hypocrites . You can now see how it feels when you guys make similar comments about Enugu . See how you jumped in to fight like a hungry tiger and trying to defend your state because of a simple post . As for the airport traffic , Chinua Achebe international airport is the busiest and best in igboland. It is bitter but deal with it .
Unbiased1: Another conspiracy theory without proof. Celebrate the progress in Awka in peace without making it look like other states are retrogressing. This is the same rubbish we always complain about Yoruba people who believe the East is barren because there are many Igbos living in Lagos. You can't be condemning the Yoruba while you are doing the same thing. So you mean to tell us that real estate developers in Enugu are leaving and moving to Awka but the cost of land in Enugu and Nsukka are increasing on a daily basis due to high demand And the airport point you mentioned is flawed because Enugu state's airport is the 2nd busiest Airport in the east after the Owerri Airport so why should someone leave Enugu because of Airport wahala?
Total gibberish. You are well known for posting nonsense. You will write America and write Anambra beside it, why not write America and write Abuja or Lagos beside it ? You know that will expose your stark hypocrisy and stupidity.
You all want Anambra to compete with America now because you have seen that the state is a huge construct site that’s advancing more than all the states in igboland and among the best in Nigeria. Why not tell us any state that has all that you are yapping about in Nigeria?
Anambra is still part of Nigeria and every time you show up here pretending as if the state is a country. Other states are worse off when it comes to overall infrastructures and basic amenities.
My happiness is that just like Obiano was able to put you to shame over the international airport, Soludo is equally doing same to you with his massive infrastructural projects.
Overall, Anambra is the best and most developed state in igboland .
abuzz33: Most of New York City infrastructure was built when their GDP per Capita was around the same as Nigeria's. Same thing you saw with China in the 80s and 90s.Why is that? Because most of the expertise and labor is local. Meanwhile Nigeria everything costs more because of forex and the reputation of Nigerian government. Anambra State government needs to think better when it comes to infrastructure. One is that a lot of costs can be localized by partnering with capable local engineering companies. Not the likes of Paul B whose roads in Awka all have collapsed due to poor soil stabilization. The second is involving foreign engineering companies working already on federal projects in the state. RCC that's doing Enugu-Onitsha should have been involved in state roads because they already have machinery and people committed on ground. Third is that the state needs to prioritize its infrastructural investments. American cities spend a lot of money developing commercial areas. Manhattan has storm drains, underground electricity cables, underground rail, planned urban transport, lots of bridges, wide avenues but you will not see that in Brooklyn or Queens. Meanwhile, go to Onitsha.The downtown of Onitsha has been left to rot and remain primitive. You have people selling timber and glass on the streets of Onitsha Downtown, open air markets, absolutely zero sophistication. Onitsha a big trading town has chased out sophistication in catering for primitive traders. So the banks are tiny branches to collect cash and go, the big transport companies are no better than keke outfits, DHL, UPS all operate tiny branches. Insurance companies are few and far between. For a city full of goods, marketing outfits, advertising companies are tiny or nonexistent. Primitive organization begets poverty.Manhattan boasts big retailers and businesses on fifth avenue, finance companies and a big stock market called Wall Street, an advertising area called Madison Ave, a tourist haven in Times Square, a huge railway terminal called Grand Central Station, a huge bus terminal at Ports Authority. All from just organizing Manhattan with interconnecting roads, traffic lights, drainage, sewage system, train system, bus system and proper policing.Anambra we lack proper organized business downtowns in cities. From Onitsha to Awka you see chaos in city centers due to lack of regulation and planning. Avenues are avenues in name alone. They are not wide nor beautiful. Transport is delivered by primitive untrained shuttle and Keke drivers instead of by a city bus service. How many streets have basic things like traffic lights or signage? Markets overflow into the street and remain haphazard constructions with little effort at beautification. The government has a lot of work to do.
You are talking absolutely nonsense. Just shut up your mouth. You are more concerned with how Anambra is building infrastructure. Is it a crime and an abomination if your own useless worthless backward state build its roads with covered drainages? Why are you expecting something from Anambra when your own useless state is yet to even have good roads like Anambra?
At least Anambra is building decent roads with walkways . Which one is your state building ? None
Unbiased1: You are actually suffering from the negative mindset you are talking about. I will use Lagos and Abuja for as examples. A friend of mine who lives in Lagos mainland visited Abuja, when he returned, he told me explicitly that he actually had to adjust his way of life during his short time there. He stopped dropping waste on the road, he stopped honking his car's horn unnecessarily just like he normally does in Lagos because he found Abuja to be more serene and sane. Now where am I heading with this? As long as the government of a state has refused to improve on its standards, the government should not also expect the residents to improve on their standards. No matter how you view us, we are also human beings in Nigeria and we can adjust to better standards more quickly than you think. During the time of Donald Duke in Cross River, he met Calabar as just one ordinary nigerian city. Duke singlehandedly improved the standards in Calabar. It got to a point where if you throw dirt from the window of public bus and driver notices, he will stop his bus and ask you to go and pick up what you threw on the road. The people saw that the government was moving Calabar to a higher standard and they quickly adjusted. In Lagos, you can't see people dropping waste on the streets of Banana Island, Ikoyi and Victoria Island because the standards are high in those areas and even people who are visiting from poorer area like Iyana Ipaja quickly adjust to the new standards.
This is 2024 for goodness sake. Constructing roads with open gutters does not send the right message to the residents in any way. An open gutter is a clear invitation for waste disposal because anybody walking on the road will see an open gutter as an easy dump site. Let's not even begin to talk about the health consequences, growth of mosquitos and houseflies and the dangers of children mistakenly falling into these open ditches while trying to cross over them. In terms of aesthetics, open gutters are completely horrendous and disgusting to look at and does not protray any city as a modern city in this century. Are you telling me that it is an abomination for Anambra state government to cover the gutters and provide waste bins for residents to dump their wastes in? I remember vividly when Fashola was the governor of Lagos and he was hell bent on cleaning up the state. He began covering all the gutters and fitting manhole covers so that they can easily be cleaned. There was a threat then that any place where waste was dumped on the road, the electricity distribution company will be ordered to switch off power to that area untill the residents did what was right. This prompted Lagosians to always wait for the waste agency to arrive before disposing their wastes. The Lagos state waste management agency was always moving from street to street at least once every week to clear waste from people homes. If Anambra state's Government is serious, they can cover those gutters in Anambra and give that state a better look.
What nonsense are you talking about ? Tell us what’s in imo state except ashawo business and brothels . Show us companies in imo stare that provides employment opportunities. The last I checked most imo indigenes are running to Anambra and Enugu states to live , but you are here deceiving yourself when you know that imo state is backward , useless and worthless
Aren’t ashamed? In all honesty you know that there’s nothing in imo state to support it being even in the top twenty. You don’t have industrial complexes, no commercial presence, etc, except brothels and commercial se.x hawking . You are deceiving yourself
These people are driven by envy and bitterness. They thought they would hijack this thread to spread their lies and propaganda but we shall never allow them have their way here
Jcoleworld911: Really You’re not seeing the new government house/roads leading to it?
You’re seeing the solution fun city??
You’re seeing Ekwulobia flyover and road dualization?? Including modern car park
You’re not seeing the ongoing ochanja dualize roads??
You’re also not seeing ongoing okpoko roads dualization and the general hospital??
You’re seeing so many road construction going on in the state??
Portharcourt road has been recently completed with streetlights
Akpaka gra has been long completed with streetlights??
Miserable frustrated envious bitter fellow. Keep camping here like an evil spirit, it won’t still change the fact that Anambra is the best and most developed state in igboland and Soludo is the best Igbo governor , while your backward useless worthless shithole state is in shambolic condition
cadmanspize: Very blind to see substandard mediocre 1km paths under construction since 2 years ago. Modern 1 plot keke park you mean? And ofcourse, slowudo is not dualizing any road in Ekwulobia! just maintaining APGA mantra, "uzo otu okpa" with his 100 feet culvert.
There’s no one in Enugu state that has ordinary camera phone. You guys keep living in denial, that was exactly what you guys did here until the fat ugjy nsukka man wasted eight years. Now this one that stole someone’s mandate is even worse than gburu gburu but you guys will always come here to defend failure and backwardness. Keep camping in Anambra thread instead of kicking your incompetent governor to fix your backward state
christejames: I heard Mba is really into construction and reconstruction of some roads in the city and I also watched a video where the completion of the abandoned International Conference Centre is being carried out...
Even though I have my reservations against this govt, the govt should try and at least get some of the things they are doing into the media to keep the people abreast.
