Afam4eva: Osazie doesn't have any swag even if he has, it's not as much as Jim Iyke. And as far as money goes, it's an insult on footballers to compare a Nollywood Actor to a footballer. Osazie's weekly salary is Jum Iyke's decade salary.

achi4u: You can only say what you know, in all the eastern markets theres no yoruba presence.
If they can develop /own any portion of the market(in the east) then they are free to elect their market leader.

To my igbo brothers, this is a wake up call for you to think wisely before committing a huge investment in the foreign land.

Think wisely!

Think EAST!!

Vice Chairman, Senate Committee on Power and Steel, Senator Chris Ngige, Monday, said concerted efforts by the committee to salvage epileptic power supply in Nigeria had started yielding dividends, following the celebration in Awka, Anambra State, of three consecutive weeks of uninterrupted electricity supply.
Residents of such places as Agu-Awka, Ekeh Awka market, have expressed relief from the air and sound pollution of power generating sets.
Speaking with newsmen in Awka, Senator Ngige, who represents Anambra Central senatorial district, explained that the development was part of his developmental programme for the zone.

He added that the new transmission line at Agu-Awka power station was being test-run and would officially be commissioned in no distant time.
Ngige also said it was part of the IPP programme being carried out by government to alleviate suffering of Nigerians over the epileptic power supply in the country and save small and medium scale industries from closing shops.

He said: “This is part of the IPP programme of government on the power sector. What we have in Agu-Awka power station is a new transmission line that is under a test run and that explains why in the past three weeks, major parts of Awka have been enjoying uninterrupted power supply.

“As a result of this, the load in those areas has reduced and also improved power supply in places as Nibo, Mbaukwu, Umuawulu and Amawbia towns of Awka South local government areas.
“When the issue of IPP and transmission lines were being put in the front burner at the National Assembly, areas such as Onitsha–Nnewi were included as well as Awka –Enugu-Abakaliki.

“So, that of Awka has come on stream and I am happy to tell you that this is one of my constituency programmes for Anambra Central.
“Due to my position as Vice Chairman, Senate Committee on Power and Steel, I was able to network major towns in Anambra State, including the Ala Oji power station in Abia State, and also towns like Onitsha-Ihiala Owerri- Oguta –Aba and Nnewi areas.
“It would be recalled that when the Senate Committee on Power started its oversight functions it was discovered that 21 containers of transmission lines imported by the Federal Government’s contractors were auctioned by the Customs to unknown buyers whose addresses could not be identified.”

Ngige noted “that the probe on power and customs over the auctioned transmission lines had yielded dividend and that is why Awka has witnessed a major boost in power supply.”

He hinted that in less than three months, the improvement in power supply would be more, lamenting that no fewer than 16,000 small scale and over 20,000 medium and large scale industries had closed shop due to failure in the power sector in the South East zone since 1999.

The President Monday said
politicians who are desperate
about power want to distract
him from delivering on the
mandate given to him by
Nigerians to move the country to
a greater level because of their
ambition in 2015.
Special Adviser to the President
on Media and Publicity, Dr
Reuben Abati who state this
while appearing on a Ray Power
Radio Programme monitored in
Abuja noted that the president
has consistently state that he is
determined to deliver on the
mandate given to him by
Nigerians and will not allow
himself to be distracted the
campaign for 2015.

According to Dr Abati, ” the
President has never at any time
discussed 2015. He has never at
any time say this is his position
on 2015.
His position has been consistent
and straight forward and that
has been the president saying
look let’s focus on governance.
“If the Nigerian people have
given you an assignment it is
your assignment to deliver and
move the country forward, that is
what we want to focus on.
And that was the statement
about the mid term report that
was publicly presented. Two
years down the line the President
presented to the Nigerian people
scorecard of what he has been
able to do.
He said I took over and now two
years down the line I have
moved the country forward, this
is the evidence. Nobody has been
able to dispute the evidence.
