PoliticsRe: Indorama Junction at Eleme: A Nightmare For Road Users. (Pictures) by TropicalOne: 12:31pm On Aug 04, 2016
A drone footage would have made anyone who hasn't been held up in that traffic to appreciate what commuters go through on that road.
One spends needless hours on the road to or from daily business.
A trailer park should be constructed in the interim to de-congest that road, while a fly-over should also be in the minds of the urban planners for that spot.

I rest my case.
PoliticsRe: FG Kick-starts Resuscitation Of Ajaokuta Steel Company by TropicalOne: 7:28pm On Aug 02, 2016
This news will only be a repeat of what we have heard from previous governments unless there is a meticulous planning and execution by this administration.

If there is commitment, we will achieve the industrialization sooner than later.

The rail line to connect Ajaokuta to Itakpe and to Aladja should also be in the pipeline.

Long Live Nigeria!
PoliticsAnambra Attracts $1.65B Investment,as Stella Oduah Heads Anambra Airport Project by TropicalOne(op): 11:54am On Dec 29, 2014

In keeping with his avowed commitment to achieve increased investment in flow into the State, Anambra State governor, Chief Willie Obiano has said that the State has so far attracted about one billion, sixty-five million US Dollars investment from investors since March 17th, 2014 when the new administration was inaugurated.

These investments he said, were attracted to key areas? covering agriculture, hospitality and tourism industry, power generation, trade and commerce, among others.
Obiano who addressed journalists on the various programmes and achievements as well as challenges facing his government, also disclosed that he had appointed former Aviation Minister, Princess Stella Oduah as head of Anambra State Airport Development Agency based on her wealth of experience and track record of turning around the country’s aviation industry.

Noting that his administration had distributed high-yielding seedlings to farmers and encouraged the formation of cooperative societies for easy access to farm inputs and credits, the governor stated that through the Anambra State Investment Promotion and Protection Agency, ANSIPPA, investments have flowed in from the Coched Farms 175 million US Dollars, Ekcel Farms Limited (150 million US Dollars) and Grains and Silos Llimited (11 million US Dollars).

Others are Delfarm Limited and Songhai Regional Centre from Benin Republic with 200 million US Dollars investment, West Africa Inter-continental Trade Centre (320 million US Dollars) and Cardinal Developers and Trust which took over the completion of Anambra’s 4-star luxury hotel in Onitsha, among others.

He stated that the investment feat recorded by his administration in a few months in office was made possible by well-deserved appointment of competent professionals especially in the areas of financial investment and banking as Board members of the Anambra State Investment Promotion and Protection Agency (ANSIPPA) led by Cyril Enweze, traditional ruler of Umuoji and an accomplished professional of international repute.

The governor pointed out that consideration was being given to an idea of expanding Onitsha Main Market to the River Niger River, stressing that four other Urban markets have been proposed for urban settlements of the State.

He summarized his achievements, asserting “We are bringing in lots of investments and other relevant and critical things that would improve the general welfare of the people and the economic fortunes of the state”.

On the challenges facing his government, he cautioned Nigerians to brace up to the challenges arising from the dwindling oil revenue, caused by the falling oil prices world wide.

He revealed that having foreseen the ugly development he had initiated the move to improve the internally-generated revenue windows and has so far upped it from N500 million to N1,1 billion per month.

The governor stated that his ambition was to ensure that internally generated revenue hits the target of five billion monthly, stressing that such an increment would be reciprocated with increase in the monthly wage bill of workers.
He stated that the hope of Anambra State joining oil producing states under the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) could not be realized even with the pronouncement of President Goodluck Jonathan in 2013 that the State has become an oil producing State, saying it would only be possible if the production capacity of 55,000 barrel per day was achieved.

Governor Obiano further disclosed that he had not abandoned any of the projects that were initiated by his predecessor in office and assured that he would execute all of such projects fully and to a successful end.

Obiano stated his administration had done very well in the areas of enablers like the provision of adequate security, health, youth and sports, education, environment, among others, which are propellers of the four Pillars of Development of his administration anchored on Agriculture, Trade and Commerce, Oil and Gas and Industrialization.

The Governor also announced that his government is procuring good waste disposal equipment to boost a healthy environment across the major cities.

Obiano who disclosed that two armed robbers were killed on Christmas day and that two others were arrested while trying to escape, stated that a kidnap attempt was also foiled within the period.

He expressed the readiness of the government to successfully confront security challenges in the coming months, revealing that his concern was to improve on the achievements already made in the coming years, beginning with the year of 2015.

Said he: “And in less than three weeks, we were able to win a very good battle and that is the relative peace we are enjoying now and we will continue to improve on that high record. We will sustain the patrol we have at Upper Iweka and I have engaged a retired commissioner of police Aduba as the head of the vigilante, we are re-organizing it all and recovering arms from those who are not real vigilante operatives”.

HealthEbola Virus: Is Nigeria Immuned From This Epidemic? by TropicalOne(op): 10:34pm On Jul 04, 2014
A lot has been going on in foreign media concerning this deadly virus without a cure, no vaccine with a very high fatality rate.

Ebola virus was first discovered in 1976 in the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire). The virus was named after the Ebola River where one of the first recorded outbreaks occurred. The largest-ever outbreak was in between 2000 and 2001 in Uganda, with 425 cases, about half of whom died, according to WHO estimates of about 90%.





It was Uganda,
PoliticsRe: My Stand On Who APC Should Field For The Presidency/VP - Femi Fani-kayode by TropicalOne: 12:23am On Jan 08, 2014
surprised how someone would sit down and write this piece of crap and how did it even make front page?

Why is ffk whipping tribal sentiments here? the last time I checked Yoruba produced a president that lasted 8 yrs and could only achieve gsm.

Now, the ranting of a sacked former minister on the grounds of incompetence and gross corruption cannot becloud our thoughts and vision.
Nigeria is bigger than any tribe or religion and national interest should come above other things.

I can only support any party that fields credible candidates like Pat Utomi etc, not anybody because he came from a certain region or religion.

Agreed PDP is full of corrupt politicians but APC is not the solution cos they are a dumping ground for disillusioned PDP members. just like selling my dog to buy a monkey.. all domestic animals.

I am sure the pro-APC moderator will try to block my comment mana ka chineke mezie okwu!

Car TalkRe: Transmission Related Problems by TropicalOne: 11:53am On Mar 26, 2013
Please, I use a Toyota Sienna CE 2001 that rides pleasantly until I had a shaft noise problem. I had the Constant Velocity Joints (Shaft ends) changed by a mechanic two weeks ago on a friend's recommendation. On starting the car after the work, I noticed the "ABS" and the "Tire Pressure" Lights were on.

I complained to the mechanic immediately, and he asked me to stop the engine, which I did. Then he removed the battery head for about 5mins and fixed the terminals back. The ABS Light continued to show, but the tire pressure light came up after some distance.

Now, the major issue here is that since then, my vehicle speedometer stopped reading, and then my gear selection is very erratic, and annoying cos my car engine revs longer before the gear changes.

I am actually clueless on this, but more so the mechanic. I am feeling blue cos this is my first experience with Toyota so my friend introduced this mechanic to me.

Please, can anyone help me with the solution to this?
I will appreciate guys.
SportsMikel Obi: Is He A Victim Of Racism Or Just Squad Rotation Policy? by TropicalOne(op): 3:16pm On Feb 18, 2013
I have observed with dismay the continual neglect of Jon Mikel Obi by the Chelsea Interim Coach, Rafa Benitez since the Ex-Liverpool coach took charge at Stamford Bridge last November.
It is obvious that the Nigerian midfielder is no longer a favoured candidate in Chelsea's double pivot system. It is either David Luiz/Ramires, Lampard/Ramires, or Lampard/Luiz. Even after helping the Super Eagles to a CAF Nations Cup success, he is still being sidelined.
Maybe we are seeing the end of a club legend, who has at least 2 premier league titles, 3 FA cup titles, not to mention the Almighty Champion's League, and medals too numerious to mention.
While Lampard's contract saga has continued to generate so much heat and debates in England, Mikel's travails have been taken so lightly.
I wish Jon Obi Mikel luck as he is still being a good professional that he is.
