It's not a Dangote company or investment, and yes it is very true even though from the outside it looks like one of those aabondoned projects by government, but it's actually a manufacturing automobile company silently in function, one of our staff was opportune to be there on 3 occasions for maintenance of 4 of our Vans bought there, I also was opportune to be given a tour of the production line by the Indian engineer at that time, to top it all up I got a commission also for directing a client of mine to purchase 2 Vans, I guess this is a valid testimonial of me and NTM Zaria road Kano. Lastly I had asked the Sales rep and engineer why they aren't loud but they just laughed it off and said we are very much on ground......

Why would they blow their trumpets ? Thanks you said that youvwere given tour by an Indian engineers ..so why blow the trumpet when the Indian is giving you tours

So don't bet your chest yet till it's wholly owned and operated then conceptualised by any Hausa Fulani dude

For now,i think it's will be nice if we leave them in oblivion

Jazzlite:
Dangote is hinged upon government and devilish waivers that can pay up our national debt

That's why I don't respect him
He was spoon-fed

saintdennis:
Sorry bro...please elaborate

When you in the big leagues you play to win...

You can't go nationwide without govt support...ask yourself how come others are not enjoying the support?

I mentioned the example of innosson, a yoruba friend of mine last week told me he saw an innosson car in lag, he commended the design...he was amazed.

Nigerians are determined to patronise MADE IN NIGERIA. Look @ our movies, music, fashion, cement etc. It's booming only a matter of time before our vehicles too become the in-thing...after all forex scarce.

It behoves on mr innosson to go and rub minds with politicians to ensure his businesses get public backing...charity begins at home I guarantee you if okorocha, obiano, nqwanyi, umahi, ikpeazu drive an innosson car give it 6months 1-in-5 cars will be innosson (in southern nigeria)

He needs to learn to liase with govt. Even Ben Bruce a bayelsan is pushing the product pass easterners dem in govt

If innosson fails don't be surprised another igbo man, or even any other tribe with govt connects will spring up a factory and b4 you know it he takes over the lion share of the market.

He will not fail and mind you most business are not hinged to government

Allow forces of demand and supply to determine

May he rest in peace


One reason I am scared of working for people and even Nigerian government...you que to collect pension

But in self employment your business grow with you and you sit on the group head calling the shots


It's unfortunate

Unapologetically igbo man here

ehikwe22:
You only saw one Igbo name which is Nduka, is Obaigbena an Igbo name? is Irabor an Igbo name? is Ovia an Igbo name? one Igbo name makes all the names become Igbo?

Do you know that we have ovim village in ebonyi
Irabor is an Igbo name and has igbo meaning
And it also have Edo meaning

AgentOrange:
This thread will never be complete without mentioning the legendary Babyosisi, arguably the most powerful woman to have walked on nairaland, only rivaled by Desola..

Naso

pazienza:
Just as you you get banned for supporting Odua republic?

Oh wait, the Yorubas are not after Odua republic, they are allergic to independence like their Islamic masters up North.

nwanne dalu rinne


we will miss u...pop by though am not always here again

thank you for the recognition....we have seen it all here and we have decided to slug it out...though I gave it my best but I have toned it down now due to kids around

no more intellectual discuss but I watch them and I appreciate the people and the new dudes from ugomba to adaure4eva then also I appreciate the brotherliness between igbo in East and that of west or anioma ...the etche are also back but ikwerre the HopeAtHand people learnt he isn't even ikwerre are sore not all


but NL is a fun place to be just that I rarely visit again due to comitnent and ban

you know how notorious I am and I am not ready to open another Monika

Nna, you still don't get it. Have a bird-eye view of the matter and not judging them from the text content of a single post. What Sterling (and you) did is like jumping onto a trending hashtag without full knowledge of the origin. Check the trend of their communication (creatives inclusive) and see the consumer personality reflected then come back and apologise to your oga.

I think I like u

omonnakoda:
Some people lack sense so let us lend them a little.
Ikwerre Youths say they denied being Eboe. Really? Where were these youths at the time of denial? Had they been born? The War ended 46 years ago. A 46 year old man is not a youth and a 46 year old man would only have been told what happened ,never a witness. It is the Elders that denied that should come out and recant the denial.They should come out and hand over the abandoned property they coveted. Let Elechi Amadi and his coeval recant

I have always detested your submission...but this is the first time you are logical

HopeAtHand:
Very lame analysis. There is no correlation whatsoever between that Bible parable and the Ikwerre situation.

You can allow misguided elements like Ezepromoe to continue fanning Igbo optimism but i'd state it clear for all to note that long before the civil war, during and after colonial era, Ikwerre had through several medium sought a distinct identity from Igbo.

The defeat of the Igbos in the civil war afforded us a window of opportunity to achieve our demands. To us, the civil war was only a means to an end.

Taaaaa mechionu...onye mbamiri
Proximity to fish has a lot to do with your reasoning

Ugomba:
Even the last Oba of Benin warned ikwerres to stop claiming Benin in his last book. "my humble self at your service"
wetin connect Julius Agwu to benin?
Lol. The pathetic benin wannabes.

Don't mind the lousy lots

Adaure4ever:
oh pls shut up! What the funky hell re the ikwerres feeling like?
Comparing Igbo and ikwerre is a punishable insult because you people are not worthy enough to compete with Nnewi talkless of Anambra alone.
I just hate it when Rags try to feel as if they are important..

Nwanne eziokwu ka ikwuru


Who are the ikwerre ...is it the kaikai drinking people

Ugomba:
Ikwerres- the pathetic benin wannabes.
Hahahahaha.
Even the last oba of benin warned them in his book " My humble self at your service" to stop claiming benin origin.
Who wants the lazy drunkards with identity crisis in their history.
Ikwerres will stain Benin history.
Cc: HopeAtHand

HopeAtHand is a foregone alternative....tats the way we put it in economics ... ezepromoe took him to cleaners lately and I was a witness to that


We don't need them...they should drink their oil ..are they even up to 10000000 in population....we can easily annex them
We are okay with ndoni, etche ,ohaji and mgbirishi and ubani

Ugomba:
which Anioma are you talking about?
Pls don't display ignorance in public, deniers are in the minority.
Aniomas, we are proud Delta Igbos, we are not ikwerres.
We know our roots.

Nna chefuo beremx ..she is a loner in a Looney biko

In advert there is what we call niche market and target market...well if diamond bank is doing esusu stuff...the lingo is wrong because those that do esusu are not that educated...i think pidgin and local lingo will suffix


ighotago

donigspain:
Check my signature kid. I have managed leading corporate accounts and still doing so. I have planned digital campaign you might have engaged in. Why do "corporate" bodies create ads in pidgin? Don't you listen to jingle and TV commercials? Free lecture, your consumer insight controls your communication strategy (voice/tone). Do you need more lectures on branding, digital marketing, social media management and PR?

When you marry a riverside man that has a lot of kaikai in his blood stream ...you will always get high because the ejaculation in your blood is 88%Vol



Now bounce..Why are you like this



Anioma is not igbo....well it is ugomba that will deal with you,Not me

Beremx:
My dear, are you talking on behalf of Ikwerre people? are you sure they agree with you?
Well, i am yet to see any Ikwerre man or woman who says he's Igbo. Same as Anioma.

Honestly, this kind of topic breaks my heart.

IIkwerre are not igbo...they have disowned themselves...now that oil has become so cheap that almost all igbo states has oil...now they want to claim igbo


They are Ikwerre petriod

Igbo have nothing ..absolutely nothing to do with them...ask ugomba

ewwhere




where is that my ikpu atulu known as hopeathand and where is oyim ezepromoe...make i come gbawa uzor hopeathand...usu rakwa......hopeathand

people and stupidity..a woman killed somebody and you are blocking the road.../does that make any difference

may the soul rest in peace

its a pity

iamtewwy:

Source:me

I doubt if you ever worked in a corporate setting before and as a PR expert...he will tell you


Language matters. Corporate language doesnt take that UR and U english


Its globally unacceptable


grow up!

donigspain:
I beg to differ. This is about brand communication strategy (voice and tone) and understanding of the uniqueness of Social Media platforms. Unfortunately, Sterling Bank Plc is using Gen X language on a Gen Y platform and that will create a disconnect between them and the TG. On the other hand Diamond Bank Plc is using the right text language/format to sell to the right TA on the right platform. SMS Text format is excusable on Twitter. This shade backfires on Sterling Bank.

Diamond Bank is selling "esusu" banking. Who is the Target Audience of this package? Millennial youths who are fun-loving, energetic, social and trendy. This TA communicates in abbreviation. I think this is a strategic communication plan by Diamond and should not have been viewed as spelling deficiency. Sterling should not judge Diamond from its (Sterling) brand perspective.

BUT HOW CAN A BANK USE U FOR YOU AND YOUR FOR UR


TERRIBLE MISTAKE...

When you give jobs to all these girls that Bleep their way to garduation...this the embarrasement you get



Thats a big PR gaffe

Yankeeboi2:
So y'all will think its only Nigerian entertainers and Politicians that know how to shade,well you got it all wrong.Lol. So here is what happened Diamond posted the tweet above which had some grammatical issues and immediately Sterling bank saw it they went to Diamond's page to shade the heck outta them.

I AM IN TOTAL SUPPORT OF THIS...BUT MIND YOU...HIS BROTHERS MIGHT TALK HIM DOWN

ezeike31:
Wanna correct a few mistakes.
Alex Iwobi is from Delta state.
Mike Ezuruonye is from Abia state and Chinyere Udoma is from Enugu state.
My fellow Igbos,remember this is thread to celebrate igbo sons and daughter of Anambra origin,it's not a thread to cause division,rancor or mock other Igbo states. Whatever we have achieved in our respective states,is for the collective advancement of the Igbo race.
Ndewo nu.
Chinyere Udoma is from Umuoma, Eziama in Nnokwa, Idemili south L.G.A. The daughter of Nzenweofor Onweleani.

Alex iwobi is from Onitsha pls he is a cousin to okocha..


Arsenal FC manager Arsene Wenger who managed former Super Eagles captain and two-time African Footballer of the Year, NwankwoKanu, wants young midfielder Alex Iwobi to choose England over Nigeria, the player’s father has disclosed.Chuka Iwobi who is a nephew to former Eagles captain and mercurial midfield wizard, Austin ‘JayJay’ Okocha and his father, Chuka, arrived the Dream Team, U23 national camp few days ago and revealed to the media of how Wenger tried persuading his son to play for England at the expense of Nigeria.However Chuka Iwobi, who hails from Onitsha, Anambra State and his son’s uncle, Jay Jay Okocha, a relative to his wife, persuaded Alex, a youth international at the U15 and U18 levels for England to play for the U23 Nigerian national team.

itstpia8:
The Igbo meaning has a similar one in Yoruba where Ara means lightning.

Ara can mean breast also in igbo

daretodiffer:
Try Yoruba culture It is allowed.


Also, this is the 21st century. Women can be anything.

Nice one

I think that they said that it's only cowards that commit suicide
