The f**k are you? The f**k are you on about? and Who the f**k mentioned biafra here? You sound like a moronic paranoid schizophrenic I swear. Listen good, I don't care about you, your saviour kanu, your biafra or your Nigeria. You can all f**k off into the abyss. NEXT!

Choi...see rant!

Moro'n you invited the issue of Biafra when you implied Igbos are giving your darling 'one Nigeria' a bad name!

Now you have two options before you: either actively support the Igbo in their quest to be detached from hateful schmucks like you , so you wouldn't have to bear the 'indignity' of having them sully the spotless reputation of your 'one Nigeria'....or you can shut da fuc/k up and accept them warts and all!

Cheers!

kramer:
Well done to the young lad!

On the other hand OP, I think you're overselling the award itself. Nobody knows about it and it's certainly not prestigious (Nobel peace prize comes to mind)

In any case, well done again to the lad for attempting to fix Nigeria's image overseas, which his people have damaged severely.

Choi...see bad-belle!

This particular Igbo-hating bigot just couldn't help himself....he just had to rain on the boys parade out of pure hate!

I'm sure this same fool has done nothing to support the Biafran secessionist agenda so he and his tribe of 'saint's can keep the country to themselves!

nnamdijonathan:
mtcheeew. As if Obiano even constructs sidewalks at all.

Hehehehehe

Abagworo:
Imo Government is really trying in terms of what I will like Nigeria to look like in near future. It is always good to start from somewhere and expand gradually.

Well this looks promising!

It's like there's a spirit that takes hold of the governor sometimes and he wakes up to do decent stuff that's aesthetically pleasing! And then there's other times the spirit leaves him and he reverts back to default settings....building ugly, substandard rubbish!

ckenneths:
A new bypass created in Owerri.........

This Rochas sef! Just look at how ugly that new road and its surroundings looks!

This man is littering the whole of Owerri with ugly, substandard roads and structures! The problem is that he's spreading the little resources the state has too thinly! Compare the rubbish roads he constructs with the ones done in Port Harcourt and Uyo, then you'd know just how much this man is disgracing us and pulling us backwards!

The problem with doing a cheap whack job in road construction is that after one or two years you have to come back again to spend even more money fixing up the damaged portions! This is penny wise, pound foolish! It would have been better to spend decent money to build a durable road that can last for years...using competent contractors that would first study the topography of the area to know where to build a road, where to build a culvert and where to build a bridge! It's not rocket science for crying out loud!

Metuh:
Useless and Brainless leaders that we have in the South East are our problem not Yoruba or Hausa.

Were the idiotic leaders waiting for sense before they will ask for the development of their region? Ohanaeze ndi oshi.



Are this not the idiots that will rule us in the phantom Biafra? It's just pathetic.

Just leave Biafra out of your useless rant! Your darling 'one Nigeria' that has the worst leaders on earth, why don't you likewise ask for it to be dismembered! Or idiotic leaders are only permitted in your 'one nigeria'?

The system and mode of governance in a new Biafra Republic would not give room for the type of characters and mediocrity we see in governance in Nigeria today!

If the story is true, it could be Mazi kanus' family included many names and the embassy wasn't comfortable with that. They should whittle the names down to one or two people.

I wish them well!

see shallow reasonin abeg. if GEJ startd it must u continue it. u've just said dia is no difference btw APC & PDP

The man is so annoying!

gidgiddy:
It is IPOB's intention to boycott the 2019 election. They going to ask everyone in the SE/SS area to boycott the 2019 elections. Personally, I think the boycott next year will be successful in the SE and some parts of the SS.

No doubt that such a boycott will help APC, however, IPOB does not care about who wins or loses elections in Nigeria. They don't care about Nigeria, period. Who can blame them? Things will only get worse in Nigeria no matter if APC or PDP wins. So what is the point of going to vote?

As if votes count anymore when APC or the northern oligarchs are determined to 'win' an election at any cost...esp' one as strategic as the presidential!

If SE like they can deliver 15 million votes to PDP next year. APC and the core muslim north will be watching you by the sidelines, leaning relaxed on the wall with a smug grin on their faces! They'll see your 15 million, turn round and reach into their strategic vote reserve to pull out 50 million votes for the NW alone, drop it on the table and tell you you're learners in the game!

Sall:
Why the FG? Ipob should come to mind.

If IPOB comes out now you'd be the first to scream for python dance to go and shoot dem all!

Let them first get Biafra before you can say they shouldn't bother your FG!

Inspiration007:
oga stop quoting me and read the article again. Let me explain it to you in pidgin:

On August 26, Mr Malami talk say oga jona been agree to pay the lawyer 20-30percent.

But the lawyer dey talk say all his life as a lawyer he never charge above 5%, and even sometimes he dey charge less.

Was going to correct him, but you beat me to it! These APC/Buhari minions are just clutching at straws in an attempt to salvage a reputation that's already deep in the sewer!

AnambraDota:
It's all lies and excuse to justify incompetency.
The four areas inside the upper Iweka interchange have scanty trees planted there and they don't produce enough oxygen to balance the human activities around the upper Iweka axis.

On the hand is Eastern Academy, look at the school and see how bare it is, the school is so arid and dry that you think Sahara desert is encroaching on the land. Why can't trees be planted in the school.

Opposite the school is Toronto Hospital with little or no trees, why don't Anambra State government mandate areas like this to plant trees like Lagos is doing.

Now the stretch from down flyover to Moore Street have no single tree, if Obi and Obiano were human enough they would know that the road need to be dualized continuing from the flyover, they will plant trees in the middle like Rochas would have done.

From Relief Market to Obosi flyover is bare, the park Obi built before Tiger Industry, dude covered everywhere with concrete, no trees and no buildings, the intensity of the sun there na die.

From Obodoukwu Road to Uga Junction, the place is so disgusting not just with bad road but dirts, if Anambra State government is a little bit serious like the e-urchins make us to believe, they would have give so road facelift.

The show of shame Obiano did at DMGS roundabout, if Obiano have an eye for aesthetism Oguta Road, Awka Road would be dualized and trees planted in the maiden to compliment the roundabout. He went there dump the tacky job and start making his usual noise

I like how you say it as it is no matter whose ox is gored! There's a lot of mediocrity going on in the SE and someone needs to call our gov'ts out on it!

They're not! They are just more devious and more cohesive as a unit thanks to Islam.

Having a horde of zombies at your beck and call doesn't translate to being more politically aware!

Feeding children with N35 per head?

Only Jesus Christ could pull off such a stunt!

investnow2013:
I personally don't believe anything is happening there until this land agent guy in Umueri send this to me claiming that he took it early this year!

Dude must have been high on burukutu!

AnambraDota:
I don't know your this gullible, you think any airport project is going on at Umuneri?
Obiano is one of the serial fraudulent politicians we have in Nigeria. If any project is going on there his media urchins in facebook will sleeping in the site daily and be updating when a bag of cement is opened.

from the onset I know the gimmick of an airport was a ruse, he didn't deceive me, he deceived those that have hope in him.

This is to show you how useless the governed are in Nigeria...most especially the press! Shouldn't they have followed up on actual work being done after the launch last year that witnessed eminent personalities in attendance?

In Nigeria, it's quite easy to get away with lies and deceit in governance because no one asks questions! You can see how they're giving Buhari an easy ride when in saner climes, he'd have been impeached and tried by now for all the misgovernance and illegality happening under his watch!

I remember seeing a YouTube clip few months to the last elections in the state showing a gov't official giving an interview on site. He was assuring that the whole thing wasn't a ruse and that, as could be seen by the bulldozers earnestly working behind him, work was ongoing at a frenetic pace!

Can someone in Anambra help confirm that post on Umueri int'l airport? I have my doubts it's actually Umueri, but you never know!

This man, as much as i like him, is just wasting his time! Unless he's doing all this to get exposure and recognition for the subsequent elections....that's if Nigeria still exists by then!

In Nigeria there are many things that come into consideration before one can be said to have a decent shot at the presidency...sadly being educated, intelligent, focused, visionary and erudite ain't among!

OreMI22:
I am of the opinion that private entrepreneurs interested in real estate should invest in decent multistorey buildings than building just duplexes or bungalows. I know duplexes look better, but not everyone can afford them and the space of land to accommodate 1,000 families in duplexes will accommodate 5,000 families if you built multi-storey buildings.

But, the essential amenities as water, parking and decent environment should also be provided for the multi-storey residential areas.

I seem to remember that some of the real-estate MOUs Obiano signed about three years ago had renderings of sexy looking high-rise apartments.

OreMI22:
EXACTLY!

The little progress they have seen has annoyed them immensely as "So we didn't stop these useless Igbos afterall?"

They are not relenting though. That is why nobody should be under any illusion until Nigeria is either restructured or Igbos are allowed to live decently in their own country - Biafra.

Those that like real-estate should consider these types of apartment complexes used in Ethiopia like below. It is how places with high population density and small landmass provide decent houses for the masses. Since electricity is scarce in Nigeria, perhaps limiting to 5 storey floors will be appropriate adaptation for our clime.

The saddest part of the Igbo renaissance is that most of our people simply swallowed the enemy's bait Hook-line-and-sinker with no questions asked. In their minds, Kano or Lagos is their hometown. i thank God for the Governors in these places that continuously remind them about this folly.

Please don't tell me all those nice pics of well laid out high-end high-rise apartments are all in Ethiopia....the same Ethiopia that hunger wanted to finish barely three decades ago!

It's suddenly dawned on me just how far we have to go to make our cities truly world-class!

Lipscomb:
this thread is not for you get lost. Nigeria is belong to all of us.

If this thread is not for me a Igbo man, then who is it for?

Still trying to figure out how the mind of a demented Igbo-hating bigot works. I mean, you sat at your desk and felt you haven't seen pretentious and ill-intentioned threads on Ikemba in a while and so decided to sink into the gutter and start this one?

You left those that devised economic and food blockade on the Biafran territory to starve Biafran women and children when the plucky Biafran soldiers proved too hard to defeat via conventional warfare; you left those that said they'd shoot at anything moving in Biafra if that's what it'd take to keep Nigeria one; you left known war criminals that rounded up all the teen and adult males they met on ground in Asaba and had them summarily executed....you left all these and more and felt it's good to zero in on Ikemba who was only fighting defensively for the survival of his people? You know how many Nigerians, now with the benefit of hindsight, if given the option to take their people out of this cursed entity would jump at the opportunity? They would do the exact same thing Biafra tried doing in 1967-70 if given half a chance and you know it!

And i'll tell you something else....if i was around as a 14 year old in the build up and during the Biafra/Nigeria war, i'd lie and say i was 18 if that's what it would take to have a chance at defending my people against you murderous and hateful bastards!

Lipscomb:
keep quiet my friend. How many of your family lost to the war?

No, you shut up and face the murderous actions of your Nigerian gov't and troops that continue to this day!

What's the purpose of this thread? For you to cry crocodile tears for Igbos....a people with their backs to the wall and fighting for survival against an Arab and British enabled murderous federal gov't!?

HardMirror:
I have been reading comments here on nairaland politics section and at this point i cant just help but conclude that 90% or more of buhari supporters are dishonest paid posters.

They may call themselves patriots but they are parrots.

How is it possible to never ever find fault in buhari? This is the epitome of dishonesty. No matter what buhari does, they shout 'Sai baba!!!' indeed the future of nigeria is bleak with such mindless zombies called the nigerian youths

There's two groups of people giving rise to two sets of reasons why Buhari has this zombiefied and blind support!

First set of people are core northern muslims who support him for ethno-religious reasons. These people see it as their birthright to own and rule Nigeria, and they see submitting to the will, desires and rule of the pesky southern and middle-belt Christians as haram and a betrayal of their faith! They may shout 'one Nigeria' out in the open, but the sentiment doesn't pass their throat never mind reaching their heart! For them the interest of Islam and Arewa come first before Pan-Nigeria gets a look in!

The second set are the Yoruba, who support Buhari also mainly for selfish interests. Their son is VP, and to them that's as good an excuse as any to support Buhari and APC. Also, their leader Asiwaju Tinubu is a leader of APC and has successfully sold the narrative that the interests of Yorubaland are better served under a APC gov't....and to be fair to them, APC/Buhari is doing more for them (in terms of physical infrastructure) than the past 16 year PDP rule. There's also the belief by some Yoruba supporting APC/Buhari that after he serves his term that they can get another shot at the presidency. There's also a feeling by the few Yoruba that don't like the Igbo that Buhari is marginalising Igbos and showing them pepper......to these set of Yoruba, the Igbo are only getting their just desserts (for a myriad of reasons we wouldn't go into for lack of time) and they need to be taught a lesson!

I think it's necessary to point out that politics in Nigeria has hardly ever been Pan-Nigerian in outlook and has hardly ever been about the issues! Since the whites left, it's been marked by greed, thuggery, ethno-religious inspired brinkmanship, backstabbing and double-talk! This is as a consequence of us not being a proper nation and having a national ethos and outlook....it's all been about what i can grab for myself and ethnicity/region before Nigeria is considered! All ethnic groups are guilty of this be they Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa/Fulani! Some of us have recognised this fact and have tried or are trying to do something about it, but we're up against very powerful and entrenched interest!

THIS IS NOT MY PROBLEM AT ALL...
My problem now is how to rewind the time back
to 1930s
To locate Buharis father and give him condom.

Bros, condom can fail....esp' after the rigours of time travel!

Best thing is to travel back to the night of conception with a very sharp knife, match Buharis' father to the bathroom and spell out his options: he either beats it out into the sink with his hand and a good helping of Vaseline....or you cut it off! It's his choice!

mktinsight:
Dr Maduka has ZERO experience of Nigerian government. He has been in the USA for the past 30 years. The Nigerian civil servants and politicians will eat him alive with their corruption.

Look at Obiano for example. He had plenty private sector experience but in government just look at his impact. The entire savings of over 20 billion under Obi was wiped out in the space of three years. The less than 3km road between Amawbia and Amansea was quadrupled in cost from 3 billion to 13 billion or almost 5 billion per kilometer. His ATMA and OCHA brigade are collecting salary from ANSG and bribes from Anambrarians.

Soludo on the other hand is a government person. He knows how these criminals in govt operate because he was at the CBN and Finance Ministry.

My sentiments on who between Maduka and Soludo is best suited to be the next governor of Anambra state have been oscillating like a pendulum with each subsequent cogent reason given. But i never thought of the character of the individuals (private individuals and civil servants) the governor will be working with and his capacity to keep them in check and see through their shenanigans. I think Soludo is better suited and equipped to handle some of these rascals, so i'm finally settling for him!

Cjrane2:
This is good that they are making the road surface stronger.

The problem with our engineers is that they have not learnt the principle that drives erosion, so they always focus on road surface instead of reducing the SPEED OF WATER RUNOFF.

Americans and people in advanced countries their engineers already know that flood water must NEVER fall from a height to a bare ground, else it will lead to a massive erosion. In Nigeria, our half-baked engineers build roads and channel the drainage water to the bush knowing that there is a valley in the bush and water runoff will probably drop at great speed on that portion. They abandon that it and only after a few months of rain, the erosion created is enough to threaten the roads.

Our engineers need to know that once the see that water will drop from a height, that areas the water is expected to drop must be reinforced with concrete encasement and effort made to slow the speed of the runoff flood water.

We must learn how to slow that runoff water in gully erosions in the second picture

Makes you wonder if our so called engineers were paying attention in class!

PDP you guys carry for head like Gala were in power for 16 years and even made Stella odua an igbo cougar aviation minister under the presidency of your self acclaimed igbo son Jonathan, Why wasn't the Enugu airport transformed to Heathrow airport then? Abi igbo people sef dey marginalize igbos because of civil war? You people are your greatest enemies. Until you hold yourselves accountable erosion and under development will keep holding you backwards. You expect an average hausa/yoruba man to leave his region and build world class infrastructures in the east while your leaders wear red caps and apoche dress in the senate doing nothing You go tey for there.

The fact majority of Igbos prefer PDP to that anti-Igbo party APC does not translate to Igbos carrying PDP for head like gala! Yorubas and Hausa/Fulani who according to your logic carry APC for head like agbo, are their regions El-Dorado?

No one is asking you guys for more than their due....just treat all regions equally, and give all regions their fair share of the countrys' commonwealth that's all they ask! If you find it hard treating Alaigbo equally with Alayoruba and Alafulani because they don't want to vote for a bigot party and president that despises them then no wahala...just stop sending your evil soldiers to the SE to gun down innocent protesters agitating for Biafra and throw you weight behind the calls for secession. This way you can get rid of the Igbos and keep Nigerias' resources for yourselves!

Nobody is saying Alaigbo was transformed during the eight years of PDP, just like you guys can't say the common man in your regions and APC states are faring better than they fared during the 16 years of PDP! If you really want to know the feelings of the average Igbo...whether they prefer PDP, APC, restructuring or secession then conduct a referendum. You can't deny them a referendum and then turn round and accuse them of supporting PDP over anything else; preferring PDP over APC i'll agree with you, but asserting they prefer PDP over anything else is false!

The thing with Senator Oduah is that as minister of aviation she was well on track to deliver infrastructure upgrade on ALL the major airports but her tenure was cut short by accusations of 'approving expenditure above what she's authorised to approve'! Some were desperate to get her out, and the liverless GEJ that should have stood his ground was pushed to sack her because he stupidly thought he would get votes from certain regions come 2015 elections! If she was sacked for anything else, could you tell me what this is? Funny thing is that as we speak, elected and appointed officials from your party of saints (including your darling Buhari) have been accused or caught with their pants down doing much worse than what Oduah was accused of yet they're still sitting pretty with their jobs! Talk about hypocrisy and double-standards!

If you were to accuse other aviation ministers during the PDP years (including Osita Chidoka) of not doing much to improve the aviation fortunes of the country, i'll agree with you, but zeroing in on Oduah who started the transformation in the sector but was edged out by wicked machinations is being disingenuous at best! Perhaps if she had been as bigoted and hateful of other regions like Buhari and Sirika are of the SE and concentrated most of the funds on AIIA then probably she could have done more before the backstabbings set it!
