still talking off point....

Go and entertain yourself watching Tom and Jerry...This discussion is way beyond what you can handle. You prefer to discuss only what suits you...

Couldn't read more comments, as thoughtless ZOOMBIES have taken over the thread..

Not relevant to the discussion......here is something that is relevant to the discussion

Did Ojukwu and his cohorts stole nothing less than £50 million from Nigeria's Central Bank to fund their ill-conceived Biafra.

When will that be relevant? Forget it. Your treachery which is well embedded in your DNA, is well known. Even devil quotes scriptures for his purpose...

CltrAltDel:
The Chest Beaters will use the excuse of the length of this wonderful and revealing write up to shout lie. .lie. .
Read and and be educated.
Awo did them a big favour of giving them £20 pounds
Once again. ...revealing! !

Treacherous, and coward parasites...Did Awo also offered John Holt, UAC, Lever Brothers, and other industries to them?

MayorofLagos:
Yep! The truth is we now know that Awolowo did not give them ᤾20pounds as a substitute for their bank savings. There were no savings...whatever they had, it evaporated with Bank of Biafra. Awo was very kind to give each Ibo a new start in life with 20pounds. Each one was worth less than 1pound, out of his generosity he gave them 20 anyway.

What did you do with John Holt, UAC and other industries, Awo offered to you? Did he also offered those to the Igbos? Your lack sense to interpret issues, mister.

focus7:
op you are jobless, Olise Metuh (the goat) is not the first Nigeria to be handcuffed. About the bail charge, the source of loot were different, many lives were lost as result of Metuh loot, he deserved to be hung on the tree.

If Metuh should be hung on a tree, what then would happen to Lamorde, Tinubu, Amechi and Atiku...and others...?I believe your father is hanging on a tree as we speak...hopeless bigot.

One was once a governor who had access to money and was alleged and not yet guilty until court does.

Another one is a spokesman of the worst party in Africa that produced the President worst than Idi Amin in term of spending {ONÍ ÌNÁ ÀPÀ} Olisah Metuh is/was not a public servant but collected fraudulent cash from both SAMBO and prodigal son of Bayelsa.

I SEE HYPOCRISY AND SENTIMENT IN YOUR CONCLUSION.


@eligibility you are a shameless and wicked bigot...Where is Lamorde and his I trillion naira loot?

EFCC’S ALLEGED DIVERSION OF TRILLIONS: Lamorde and the schism in the Senate ( Vangurd AUGUST 30, 2015)

One Nigeria my foot. How can the successive governments swore to systematically subjugate and humiliate the Igbo people...? I wonder why people, especially the people from SW, more than the Northerners, are happy to see Igbo people suffer and humiliated... For me, I prefer a northerner far more than the a Yoruba person...and that's the truth...

But EFCC and Buhari are above the law.

Yorubas have a complex problem. I remember when GEJ was asked to probe OBJ on the Halliburton issue... Most Yorubas said that GEJ should not try it as he GEJ should not bit the finger that fed him, as ObJ picked him from nowhere and made him VP and president. I don't know why our SW brothers are so treacherous...

Powerful statement from Coal City...

Igbos invest in alaigbo. It is not true that we don't have enough land...I have visited most areas and we have land...

Houses springing up beside NCC region HQ in Nike Enugu

Happy New Year!!!

Fast developing area of Enugu...

Network Estate Nike owned by ESHD...Five minutes drive to Nike Lake Hotel. Other structures nearby are NCC regional HQ, ELIM estate and Vivian estate. There are other three or more developing estates around...

Network Estate has beautiful natural environment. I love the plots on the hill top. You can see as far as the NCC office from there. The estate roads are being tarred by the state government. Plots now are going from N4.0M, depending on the size and the individual owner. Contact me if you are interested.

Afam4eva:
Enugu has one of the largest and highest growing residential estates in Nigeria. Can the Enugu government make an attempt to come with business districts especially in the proposed centenary city. We need to move away from building residential houses. We need l dot our skyline with skyscrapers or at least well thought out business buildings.

That has been on my mind and I am doing a proposal to the state government...The only small set back here is lack of constant power.. for the lifts as to go as high as 15 to 20 levels...But it is a good idea..

Dnacode:
Abiama is Arochukwu deity.
Do not be deceived.
It's like calling something like Chukwu-Okike Zeus or something like that.
The only Chukwu-Okike I know is Chukwu-Okike Jehovah/Jesus.

Can you give a link or where you got information that Abiama is a deity in Arochukwu. Even Jesus is not His Jewish name. His real name is Yehoshua. You believe everything a white man writes. But when they support gay you reject it...

Dnacode:
Well I belong to Jesus/Jehovah alone.

I can help you with what Abiama related to. It is no longer news that Igbos and Jews have something in common. Abiama is the phonetics pronunciation of Abraham...the patriarch of Israelis. So Chukwu Okike Abiama simple means, God of Abraham the creator. I will let you know when am able to get some links to web literature on this for you.

Contractors Back to Sites in Enugu


There was visible excitement among residents of Enugu State when as heavy duty equipment of construction companies have moved back to sites at the eight roads recently awarded by the Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi’s of Enugu State.

This came as the members of the Enugu Urban Renewal Committee led by its Chairman, Mr. Chris Offor, on Friday visited some of the sites to ascertain the level of commitment of the contractors in mobilising to sites to commence work.

Addressing the residents in the areas visited, the Committee Chairman told them that their visit was in line with the directive of the State Governor to ensure that contractors handling the roads mobilise to site to commence work immediately.

He disclosed that the governor was in a hurry to commence action on the roads and was equally committed to develop the entire state through aggressive urban and rural development programmes that would open up economic opportunities in the state as well alleviate the sufferings of the people.

He noted that the early commencement of construction works at the eight awarded roads was a welcome development which proves the seriousness of the present administration to bring meaningful development to the doorsteps of the electorate.

Residents said that the commencement of the reconstruction of Abakpa-Nike and Nike lake roads, the Opi-Nsukka dual carriage road, the 9th mile corner bypass, among others, was a good omen for the state and an indication that Ugwuanyi meant business and was sensitive to the plight of the people.

They assured the governor of their readiness to make sacrifices and collaborate with government to ensure the success of the projects, to ease traffic congestion in the area.

Spyder Nwoke Ike, God bless you, for all your good works. Please can you send update on what is happening at Network Estate Nike. Many thanks in advance.

Ugwuanyi bridges Enugu infrastructural deficit with N14.2bn credit facility

Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi is taking the Federal Government N14.2 billion loan facility through the Central Bank of Nigeria,CBN,to spur infrastructural development of Enugu State.

Ugwuanyi approached the state House of Assembly, last week, for approval to procure two separate loans from the CBN.

The details show that N10 bn is for infrastructural projects and N4.207bn for the payment of the arrears of pensions and salaries owed public servants.

The loans are part of the arrangement of the Federal Government to assist state governments out of their financial challenges arising from the global glut in the oil market.

The decision to give loans up to N10bn to state governments interested was reached at the June 2015 meeting of the National Economic Council,NEC. Following that decision, the CBN, on September 1, wrote to the Nigeria Governors’ Forum,NGF, requesting the governors interested in the loan to file applications.

STEPS TO PROCURE LOAN

The Enugu government began the process to procure the loans through two separate Executive Council,EXCO, memos from the state Commissioner for Finance and Economic Development, Mrs. Eucharia Offor, deliberated upon during the council meeting of September 21 .

Same day, the state House of Assembly sat and, among other issues, deliberated on a motion on notice presented by the Leader of the House, Ikechukwu Ezugwu, seeking the approval of the loans.

The House, through a Motion on Notice,HM/03/2015, passed a resolution authorising the state government to obtain the N14.2billion loans.

The loan carries single interest rate of nine percent and 20 years repayment period.



CRITICAL AREAS OF INFRASTRUCTRAL NEED

Penocks-NOWAS-Timber Shed-T-Junction-Ugwuogo-Nike and Abakpa Junction-Liberty-T-Junction roads, earmarked by the governor for rehabilitation and dualization, are a sore point in Enugu metropolis.

Ugwuanyi had, in his maiden tour immediately after assumption of office, announced the intention of his administration to end motorists’ pain occasioned by traffic gridlock on both roads.

Major artery to the Enugu-North senatorial zone following the construction of the Ugwogo-Nike-Opi Junction-Nsukka road, the roads, if rehabilitated and dualized,will reduce manhours wasted in transit, cut the cost of farm produce and increase the cost of landed properties along that flank and open the area as an investment destination when compared to the saturated metropolis and trigger economic activities along that corridor.

Sunday Vanguard checks revealed that a journey of 10 minutes from T-junction to any part of the metropolis takes an energy,economic and time-sapping hours.

A cross section of Enugu residents interviewed expressed support for the governor’s resolve to rehabilitate and dualize the roads. Whereas Enugu Capital Territory Development Authority,ECTDA, has posted notices on walls of owners, asking them to remove property that may obstruct the project,residents are itchy to see earth moving machines mobilized to site.

Meanwhile, Sunday Vanguard learnt that Enugu Transport Company,ENTRACO; Institute of Management and Technology,IMT; Water Corporation; Daily Star,among others, will benefit from the bail-out funds.

Funds from the bailout will also be used to complete the Enugu International Conference Centre,ICC.

Having reached 80 per cent completion,the ICC commissioning promises to boost tourism,hospitality and culture in Enugu.

Poultry farmers smile as Gov. Ugwuanyi commissions hatchery

For poultry farmers in Enugu State and the South-East region – their major headache – travelling far distances to get day-old chicks has been completely cured.
Before now, the farmers had relied on hatcheries in the South-West and other regions of the country for their farms.
But last week, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State and other relevant stakeholders officially commissioned the ultra-modern Animal Health Farms and Hatcheries, a privately-owned hatchery built in partnership with the state government through the Commercial Agricultural Development Project (CADP) and the World Bank.
The commissioning of the hatchery has seen poultry farmers in the region now heaving a sigh of relief.
This is as the hatchery, which is capable of producing 30,000 eggs in a week, would reduce the hardship experienced by poultry farmers in the state and the South-East geo-political zone in travelling far distances to buy day-old chicks from other regions.
Speaking during the commissioning ceremony and first roll out of Day-Old Chicks (DOCs) of the hatchery, Ugwuanyi commended the establishment, describing it as a laudable gesture which would greatly enhance poultry farming in the state.
The governor, who was represented by the state Commissioner for Agriculture and Water Resources, Mike Eneh, noted that aside relieving poultry farmers in the state of the stress of going to the South-West to procure DOCs, the hatchery would also help in providing jobs for the teeming youths of the state.
His words: “This is the second hatchery in the South-East and also in South-South and from what we have seen so far, I think people from Kaduna and Kano also take their own chicks from this direction. Apart from reducing the stress witnessed while going to buy DOCs from outside the state and the risk of transporting them, another thing it did was that it reduced the cost of day-old chicks from 250 to about 180. So, we are quite delighted. We thank the World Bank and commercial agriculture project for their support in this too.
“Initially, poultry was nothing in Enugu. But thank God that today, it has grown in leaps and bounds, being the fourth in the country and second in the South-East and South-South. Last year, I recall that the net addition of the poultry industry, outside hatchery, to the economy of Enugu State is about 1.48 billion. The reason is simple; Enugu has one of the best weather conditions for poultry industry in Nigeria. So, we hope to invest more in poultry production in the near future.”
The governor also disclosed the state government’s plan to initiate policies aimed at the overall development of other areas of farming such as cashew production.
According to him, “Enugu State has one of the best cashews in the world in terms of quality. There are two important things we need to do. One is the aggregation center which we proposed to build in Obollo Afor and the second thing concerns geo-products.”
He said that he would “support any community that is willing to give us land, so that we can train these farmers, give them seedlings so that they can plough them in five hectares as an enterprise and also create jobs”.
Also speaking, the National Coordinator of CADP, Dr Babandi Amin, praised the management of the company for deeming it fit to establish the hatchery, pointing out that it would go a long way in boosting poultry farming not only in the state but also in the entire country.
Dr Amin harped on the need to sustain the venture, saying that the issue was not really on establishment but in making efforts to sustain what was already on ground.
“We should also be looking at the results we are getting. Are the results commensurate with the inputs we are making or are they below the expectations? We should also look at the demand of poultry in the state and be able to determine whether what we have on ground already is meeting these demands or not. It is when these things are considered that we will be able to say we are reaching our goals of making these poultry products available to our people accordingly,” he said.
Also speaking, the Manager, Animal Health Farms and Hatcheries, Dr Benjamin Oguejiofor, explained that part of why the hatchery was established was to compensate for the treatment meted to day-old chicks distributors, especially those from the South Eastern part of the country by already existing hatcheries that are mostly located in the South-West.
He noted that due to the fact that over 80 per cent of the hatcheries in the country are located in the South-West, people from the state while going to purchase DOCs, usually involve in great risks which he listed as threat to lives occasioned by night travels, exposure to armed robbery, road accidents, chick mortalities, among others.
According to him, the vision of setting up the hatchery was actualized with the emergence of the state Commercial Agriculture Development Project (CADP), which he said has played a great role to seeing that the hatchery was established.
“The success story of CADP intervention is why we are here today, to celebrate dream come true”, he said.
While pointing out that the hatchery has a total egg capacity for 95,040 with a multi-stage setter capable of handling 30,000 eggs every week, Dr Oguejiofor expressed hope that the hatchery would not only provide poultry farmers in the state with quality and viable day-old chicks, but would also provide over 100 jobs mostly to natives of Enugu State and others by extension.
He, therefore, called on the state government and other relevant stakeholders in the state to key into the idea of improved poultry production in the state, adding that “if we are able to improve on the little we already have now, Enugu State will soon emerge as one of the best states in terms of poultry production”.
Also commenting, the state Coordinator of CADP, Mr Robinson Nduaguba, expressed optimism that the hatchery was a sign of more good things for farmers in the state, adding that “this is a form of provocation to the youths in Enugu State to go into a project that will keep them very busy and make the state to be a food security zone.
“I know that Enugu State is already creating an enabling environment for private sector investors and the example shown by this establishment is quite challenging. We will do everything possible to make sure that this establishment doesn’t relax. Instead, it will continue to improve and by so doing meet the expectations of our people.”

We are seeing loads of new real estate, especially residential and hospitality sub-sector, coming up. Now we need to do more in industries and office spaces.
