Posting it to the government notice to see the extent it have reached
This is as much a catastrophe as the drying up of Lake Chad that Buhari is so passionate about and discusses with heads of gov'ts and world financial institutions as he looks for funds and partners to tackle the problem. However, this is where the similarity ends as the erosion menace in Anambra gets no more intervention from the federal gov't than the token gesture given by the relevant federal agency concerned.

Just google Buhari and the drying up of Lake Chad and i'm sure you get enough reading material to engage you till tomorrow!

I hope you can all now begin to appreciate why i despise this country Nigeria! We're in Nigeria but don't seem to be part of it!

Afam4eva:
I kinda believe that Anambra is not making enough money from the businesses in it's domain. Obiano should adopt the Lagos model and see the IGR rise and take it's rightful position.
I've wondered the same thing as well. By rights, Anambra and Abia should be making IGR returns of nothing less than 4 billion naira per month!

You hear of Abia attracting FDIs of more than a billion dollars in just one quarter and you just can't square that amount with the miserable 1 billion or so they purport to collect every month. It's obvious some bastards are stealing a huge chunk of the ones collected....something they've been doing for decades and so feel it's now normal.

Also, quite a lot of workers, private businesses, tenants, properties and even established blue-chip coys are slipping through the tax net, yet they all expect gov't to perform wonders with the pittance they manage to collet. I reckon up to 80% of tax is either stolen or uncollected. There's this belief that Igbos can be too stubborn to pay tax and i'm starting to think there's some truth to it...though gov'ts laxity in doing it's job is also a contributory factor.

This area is really beautiful. This is still Independence Layout of Enugu.
There's a part of inner Independence Layout with exquisite mansions and steep roads. The place reminded me a bit of some neighbourhoods in San Francisco! smiley

Maybe that's part of the area in this pic. The roads could be fixed up a bit better though.

Sadly it ain't gonna change anytime soon! Nigeria is a country that does politics (esp' national politics) based mainly on ethnic and religious sentiments!

biafranation:
Nigerians in general with exception of maybe Enugu will never take landscape seriously. The only way to enforce strong landscaping culture is for the State or City building department to enforce it...see a landscape design plan before issuing a building permit and subsequently to inspect the building completion along with the landscape before issuing Certificate of Occupancy. The landscape design in the submittal for building permit must show boundaries, type of materials: natural stones, interlocking/brick/concrete, lawn/grass, e.t.c., drainage type and irrigation source if lawn, e.t.c. I'm prepared to do this job for free for Anambra province only if Biafra is restored. I won't do anything under demonic Nigeria setting!

Cjrane2:
APC is mindlessly looting Nigeria and we are all watching it happen and doing nothing about those mortgaging our lives to poverty through stealing our commonwealth.
The western country where the money was repatriated from would obviously have asked for cast-iron guarantees that the money would not enter voicemail but be spent judiciously!

Problem is, they didn't know the crafty people they were dealing with! Buhari must have told them with a straight face that the money would be used on 'social welfare' schemes to help the poor! wink Social welfare schemes for the poor in a country like Nigeria? Does Nigeria have a credible database of its citizens, not to mention the hordes of illegal immigrants used by some for political and economic gain?

A lot of that money has gotten into the pockets of some sleazy gov't officials that would invariably provide thousands of ghost poor people, or would produce thousands of proxies who they would pay a pittance to stand in as the so called poor recipients of the cash transfer, after which the crooks will shove them aside and collect subsequent disbursements!

It's equally a possibility that a lot of this money is being used to 'finance' the 2019 elections and used to buy votes in the recent state elections!

That is the effect of "rich people poor state" syndrome in anambra. Primitive Capitalism
Exactly!

This is true of all the other states in the south east as well. Individual effort is miles ahead of gov't effort. Our govt's just don't have the required funds to take governance to where it should be....and we're talking of billions of dollars worth of infrastructure that needs to be put in place!

You see, this skyscraper really look nice but the problem is, a tree can never make a forest. Why not onitsha city center with its already established skyline? Development is not anchored on strong individual but on strong government institutions. Anambra govt should have shown this man the appropriate place meant for his type of building. If he does not consider other parts of the state as home then he is not a true son.
There are tens of Anambra sons and daughters a hundred times wealthier than Dr Maduka. Let them go and build their own in Onitsha!

Have you seen pics of Dubai in the 80s? It looked something like this.

We're in this mess and the butt of all jokes mainly because a people who have proved they have nothing to offer have a stranglehold on the political-economy of Nigeria! And they have hordes of ill-informed zombiefied minions to call on for votes or violence!

It is worthy of note to commend the expansion of roban stores, they spreading their tentacles tryna crisscross the south east, I think at this juncture, they got to also factor in the contemplation of expanding beyond South East and gallantly moving into other regions.

The world is theirs for the taking,
The mandate has been on us all along, from the epistle of St. Adam Smith, in the gospel of wealth of nations,
Chapter 1 verse 1, it says thus : GO YE INTO THE WORLD AND MAKE WEALTH OF NATIONS. grin grin grin
