Very talented unlike that billionaire lady, what's her name self... That will be disturbing my eardrums with wack beats

dangoteinlaw:
if you are so such of that let's stake on it, not much just 10k...winner takes all

I'm game man. Bring it on

greggng:
Another opportunity for Mr ibu to beat hell out of joshua

Walai!!! Another ass whopping of AJ loading

dangoteinlaw:
He will still woop his asss again then those of you screaming "fixed match" will see that boxing is not wrestling

It will surprise you that will whopp his ass back to back

I wonder he opted for Everton. But he was a good amount of playing time in Arsenal

I wonder why Jumia didn't list on the Nigeria stock exchange. Jumia is largely a African company trading largely in African currency, how do you list on stock exchange that is largely dollar dominant?

Chaii!!! Nigeria is no where to be found. What about Abuja?

SolarKing1:
When it comes to desiggns and shapes, Nissan is king. When it comes to affordable, useful and durable cars Toyota is the king. When it comes to Luxury cars Mercedes Benz is the king.

Nissan products are also durable. My mum still uses a 'Nissan Primera' and it's still in good condition. She bought as far back as 2010 in second value

Nemesis909:
I'm assuming you extend this argument to the yam and tomato farmers ?

those yam and tomatoes sellers are all paying taxes. it's the local government that is in charge of that. haven't you seen all those staff in uniform going to the markets places to sell tickets to those market women? Isn't It a form of taxation...

Ultimus:
I wouldn't be surprised if this includes card payments on the government Remita platform. Imagine paying tax to the government because you want to "pay" them.

Although I dislike this government because of its lack of direction. but we have to admit that advanced countries like the UK, France, Germany and even in some African countries like South Africa, Botswana and even Ghana employ these sort of taxation to raise money for the government to carryout infrastructural development.

Akanoaaa:
Yes, the one at ijede is #350

That's if you are commuting to Ajah axis. But if you are heading to Lekki or Island, you'll certainly pay #800

NaijaRoyalty:
Sowore is on his own

He's paying for all the insults his raven lunatic self hurled on my daddy, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan .

We Igbos no send am

The fight is between Yoruba people and Buhari men.

Please don't ever use that phrase again. You don't speak for my family, my home town and certainly not me. You can take your bigotry and hate elsewhere. Not all Igbos share that sentiments with you

IwilseeUincourt:
Worst Big Brother episode so far. All they do is eat , eat , eat again, drink, gossip, dance ,fvck and quarrel.

Unfortunately, that's the idea behind it

Okay let's agree it's not an achievement. Uriel are you happy now?

YorubaHero12:
Here you go again chestbeating over nothing, can we actually say this is some form of disability embedded in you guys DNA.

Do you know Onne port has been functioning even before now it’s just that it has low patronage?

Can you tell me where the market for goods is concentrated in Nigeria ?? Lagos right

If you import cars or other goods through the Onne port
Where are you gonna sell it at, mostly Lagos right considering the spending power of the people in Lagos.

If I import goods through Onne port, I still have to use ground transportation to take them back to Lagos right thereby incurring more transport cost and other miscellaneous. That form the major bulk why people prefer Lagos port.

Well let’s give it 3 years and we’ll all come back to see if your analogy is right or wrong judging by your last sentence.

Let's get one thing straight. Serious economic activities are taking place in Eastern cities like Aba, Onitsha, Nnewi and PH. Those merchants would no longer have to order goods from abroad and have it shipped down to Lagos only to transport by road to their warehouse, with the functional port at Onne, distance time and expenses will be cut down considerably

TundeBricklayer:
According to the report The WACT is determined to becoming the new hub of economic activities in Nigeria, being the gateway to major markets in Onitsha, Kano, Abuja, Nnewi, Enugu, Aba, Ogidi and Port Harcourt which will in turn boost the nation’s economy.


I'm clad Ogidi, home town of Chinue Achebe is taking her rightful position in Commerce, Ogidi now host of many markets including famous Ogidi international building material market in Anambra, the largest building materials market now is located in Ogidi, Ogidi international building materials feed many building materials markets in the East, middlebelt and North, my Aunty that built commercial house in Port Harcourt, I was surprised that she bought the building materials in Ogidi and transported them to PH.

You have to learn to rise above ethnic sentiments. It's people like you that make people think Igbos are a disgruntled ethic groups. Stop chest-beating over nothing, it won't take you far in life

TundeBricklayer:
If feel your pain, I know people from your region will not be happy reading this report

Tunde can't you just inform people without having to be tribalistic in your comments. Nobody is witch hunting anybody. We are all glad that the eastern ports is now open to traffic.
I'm igbo too before you start to spew tribalism as usual of you

Originalsly:
Hmmm....Industrial Park....great development. What concessions did the State give to the company? How much tax would the State be collecting? Why would taxpayers be paying for the security of the Private Park? Industries generate industrial waste.... most carcinogenic/cancer causing and hazardous to health.... what measures are in place to safely dispose of the waste and prevent environmental contamination? Many jobs... paid in time.... but how much?....what would be their hours of work and conditions?
These are what need to be addressed.Is this really development?...or exploitation?

Oga no time to type trash. Let's thank God that sitting governor is doing his job. When we finally get it industrialized then we can begin to look into the other issues you raised

mrAMG2:
See them o!

Vanity crew.

Since he won’t wear the chain to heaven, why don’t you bring something you bought with your own $20k that you can carry to heaven.


Mtchewww

It's obvious you are slave to money. Money truly can buy out your happiness. Listen. There are some things in this life that's far more important than money

Aldebaran:
He is free to buy anything with his money...

But I hope he his saving for rainy days...

Cos typical Nigerians are Daft...

Imagine having N20m in account...

Instead of buying N1.5m car, a typical Nigerian artist will buy N10m car just to impress his enemies that are disguised as friends

If you invest that 20 million in ARM mutual funds, I'm brother you don't need to work again in your lifetime. Just the interest alone is enough to keep you balling. Sadly our entertainers don't understand the concept of wealth management

This year's Bbnaija is the weirdest ever. Please they should restart 'Guilder Ultimate Search' atleast that one teaches how important endurance is

Amakavula:
We all know what Happened. Besides look at the man, he can't even look at the camera right, the uneducated Igbo man( obviously someone with self esteem issues) He is someone who can't grow but rather stay infatuated for years, poor fella.

Who told you he's uneducated?

goaldynboy:
I'm a big Buhari critic; I'm tempted to say he has tried small on this bridge! But I will only praise him if he completes it! If he can also be detribalized enough to build a railway from Lagos to onisha or Lagos to pH to onisha, I will rally the Igbos to apologize to him for not voting him! I don't care if he didn't give the Igbo's appointment!!

By the way Obasonjo is the biggest fool and a scammer to have played politics with this bridge!!

Yes PMB should be commending for continuing the project as planned. What I'm against is people is rubbing it on GEJ's face is that he did nothing for the southeast. GEJ actually ensured financial arrangement were adequately taken care so as not to be termed 'abandoned projects'

SaintLucia:
That is why Buhari is making it physical shorter unlike PDP that made it longer on paper. Sha don't destroy or damage the bridge in the name of Uzobu Uzobu Biafra we want.

You are just a dummy

freshMallam1122:
an this bigot region voted Atiku an money.. why APC an buhari is giving them lasting projects.. yet u still see this migrants shouting Atiku is coming.. may they remained blind until 2023 since they can't see wat bubu is doing

And so what if they voted Atiku? Regardless of who ever won the elections, the project would have continued nonetheless. The most important aspect of the project had been sorted out as far back as 2013

Bighead9:
We Igbo's are pleased with President Buhari. We remain loyal to him and we are ready to do his bids. Buhari is the only President that takes the plight of the Igbo's serious since 1999. He is doing what PDP couldn't do for us in their 16 years reign. We also thank the North for giving us an integrity leader as Buhari.

Buhari Amaka.
North Amaka.

You are truly a clown of epic proportions

MachadoPreto:
I thought GEJ had completed this bridge

Gej perfected the financial arrangement for the construction to commenced without any hitches. What's so hard to understand in that

Simplyleo:
From the aeriel view, the bridge wouldn't even be as long as 3rd mainland bridge. But what exactly has been stopping successive administrations from constructing this bridge?

Anyway, thanks to buhari for his commitment in ensuring that the dream of having this bridge is brought to fruition.

Pls, children of perdition who will rather give credit to that one whose only achievement with regards to this bridge is a drawing should not quote me, my hand is paining me.

That's why you need to be more informed before spewing trash online. Go to the website of NSIA to seek a more detailed information

obailala:
Partly funded the project?.... The explanation Fashola gave during the screening was that there was difficulty getting the private investors for the project, so the project is currently fully funded by FG through the NSIA (whatever that is). Too many complicated grammar involved in all these...

Don't worry your head about Fashola's grammar. What should you know is that the financing arrangement has been concluded as far back as 2013. NSIA and JB Co-own the project. Are you aware JB is also partly funding the project. That's why I can bet that the Second Niger Bridge will be tolled as planned.

Why are you informing us about this bitch? Is this a major breaking story across all media platforms?

Godoverevery:
stop acting delude...... **construction started 2014**isn't that 5yrs after been a presidentd more you try to defend Gej over the bridge d more it sounds irritating honestly.

What's the fuss about the actual time the construction work started? The most important thing is that they adequately took care of the funding arrangement to ensure that project doesn't suffer any setback financially.
Even if Gej won his election, construction work would have been still ongoing until the end of his tenure in 2019. Buhari came and met an on-going project still in the works and continued from there. As we know, the project is still taking Buhari five years and... To complete. So biggie!! I ain't holding brief for anyone mind you
