No be unknown Governor like Kogi state governor sha.

So long as you are satisfied with the level of job done, no problem, in life mediocres will always settle for less afterall, some of us after first degree didn't bother about education anymore, some got MSc, PhD etc.
it is up to you to raise your standard of acceptance or continue accommodating mediocrity.

Sweetguy25:
It is possible If the expenditures of the state were constant, which implies stagnation and underdevelopment.

PassingShot:
Whatever you're saying is another story entirely because not everyone who takes loan end up looting it.

There are many economies out there who have used loans to benefit their citizenry. And I am not here to defend any of those guys you keep mentioning at all.

Besides, whatever you're saying now could have been useful during the last campaign.

chumakk:
It is either he didn't do big projects like Lagos state government or he is a good spender

PassingShot:
You failed to get my point which is that it's not a problem for a state to have debt provided it has put it to developmental purposes.

For example, if state A has a debt of N5 billion naira but has many projects adding values to its citizens' life, it is better than state B with no debt and no developmental projects to benefit the people.

jpphilips:
when you say "work is ongoing" it is too vague to be employed in a meaningful discussion.
Is the level of work commensurate with the 4yrs that just elapsed, yes or No?
Remember there is a video evidence already.

efilefun:
Thats a nice step, but for real he was among the unknown governors, sure he wont want to leave the office with debts cuz he knows GMB is from that state and he might have to account for every dime borrowed and how it was spent.

Sweetguy25:
How is that possible?

PassingShot:
Good one there by Shema.

As it's important and commendable not to leave behind a huge bag of liabilities for your successor, it's equally important to know how much development you brought to your state.

We need to know the following:

How many industries did you start and finish.

Provision of low cost housing for the citizens.

Improvement in the literacy level of the state.

Provision of portable water, good roads and other infrastructures all go a long way in determining your performance in office.

Lalasticlala and Ishilove ooooooh

barcanista:
Very well, I will do that asap

PassingShot:
Of course nah. Trust babaonechance to deliver on his promise and outperform babanochance.

I checked the video you posted and I can tell it's still at between 10 and 20% progress. Only form works and foundation works I see there.

You want to counter a claim regarding status of a project, you opted to dig the messenger other than taking a trip to the project site, are you ok!!

I was there early this year and I saw nestoil dredger with some pilling work on going, that is a failure for an administration that made that promise in 2011.

Also Jonathan did a rail project and forgot to connect one of Africa's biggest sea port with the biggest market in west Africa, ironically it was the truck ladden with container on that route that destroyed the first bridge.

Jonathan scammed the Igbos, no doubt about that, I don't need Ohaneze to tell me what I can clearly see.

I didn't see the river niger end from your video, I didn't see the dredger

@ whynotthetruth and barcanista... am so glad that this particular piece of news is back to our subconsciousness, because APC have thunderously kept silent and always hoped this nobody will hear about it... for the past two weeks I have being trying to bring it to the fore....CHANGE!!!!

barcanista:
Thank you for the reference. Let's watch...

OneNaira6:
This does not come as a surprise. APC is propaganda personified and ngige is becoming the okorocha of Anambra state. I swear I feel sorry for Anambra people. They have to deal with a short man trying to create problems within their state.

OP don't forget the article where it stated that the ex ohaneze leader went to Buhari to beg him not to disregard igbo people made front page on NL in a speed of light. Ironically, when the real ohaneze leader spoke and loudly stated they neither asked or had anyone go to buhari to beg for anything nor do regret supporting GEJ, funny enough that article faded away in the back. The APC media disregard to carry it while NL, which I've noticed have turned to an APC propaganda machine, equally avoided to post that article on the FP; unlike the one from the so called "ex leader".

I swear that political party is rather annoying. The same way they are trying to cause problems and disunity in rivers and Akwa ibom is the same thing they trying to do in SE and igboland. Smfh!!!!

barcanista:
This is the article that you are talking about
www.punchng.com/news/ndigbo-wont-beg-buhari-for-appointments-says-ohanaeze/

The Real Ohanaeze made it clear that they are not begging anybody for appointment. The media and the APC impostors should stop deceiving people.

PassingShot:
As I said, I don't care which the real faction of Ndigbo is.
As for the bridge, you know how we prove things here nah.
Picture or .......

PassingShot:
He started this thread and at first I was not going to even say a thing. But when he referred us to a thread of "the 2nd Niger Bridge" and I discovered it to be wrong, I made it known to him and that's how we're here.

PassingShot:
Stop being unnecessarily defensive!

In 2011, GEJ promised the 2nd Niger bridge before the end of his tenure. Did he deliver it? NO

In 2015, a faction of Ndigbo claimed that the 2nd Niger Bridge is a scam since no appreciable work has been recorded.

Now, if anyone wants to counter that submission by the faction, shouldn't the person come with evidence?

At first, Barcanista referred us to a thread purportedly of the said 2nd NB but was discovered to be wrong as the bridge in that thread was of another project.

His other evidences were a call to his friends in Asaba who confirmed that work was ongoing and another news report that JB was disturbed by a set of unemployed at the project site. For all I care, these evidences are not reliable and even if they are, it still validates the claim of the Ndigbo faction that GEJ scammed them with the bridge because it's a project that should have been completed by now.

If completion on that bridge is close to 50%, pictures of it would have been everywhere especially during the last campaign. So, why trying so hard to discredit what the Ndigbo faction said?

BlackMaria:
So those,who support jonathan are the real ohanaeze right. If that is what u b'liv in,I can't help but laugh.
So who are dose issuing igbo ppl visiting GMB all this while,APC members ryt. Obiano,arthur eze,nd co are APC members. Ok oh,contunu in mama piss voice.
Take a poll among igbo ppl with the questionnaire 'How has the south-east gained from the GEJ administration' and see the results.

BlackMaria:
Let me ask you. Who truly are the real Ohanaeze,cuz we just dey hear of different igbo groups and association visiting GMB.
Is Arthur Eze not a pdp money bag.
Guy leave matter jare,weda u lyk or it. Gej has scammed igbo ppl big time,it's high time dey put deir house in order or else dey will never smell the number 1 position of this country.
By the way,who made u d spokesman of the igbos,u don turn FFK ni.

PassingShot:
I didn't say or give an impression that no work was/is ongoing. After all, a project which has achieved only 5% completion even after four years is still work in progress!. My point is GEJ promised 2nd Niger Bridge during 2011 electioneering campaign and he failed to deliver it; hence the Ndigbo faction saying he failed them was correct.

barcanista:
Had to modify that post after reading till the last page. However, work is on ground from personal enquiry I made to a friend in Asaba. Sorry for the misleading Chino thread.. However, in March 2015, there was a report that Unemployed Graduates stopped work at the Second Niger Bridge.

If Work wasn't ongoing, tell me which work was stopped?

Borrussia:

Kolade354:

temitemi1:
Can u imagine such statement my brother!

Borrussia:
Peoples like temitemi1, Barcanista, ichidodo, mizmycoli, seun, truckpusher.

Your attention is needed

As for me, corruption is mostly based in the oil sector and that's what I'm gonna tackle, I might also find a way to get rid of peoples like obasanjo and Tinubu from all form of government.
