Gbawe:You miss the point once again... I care not if Ajimobi, you or Clifford orji are technocrats. My worry is your attempt at painting everything that comes from ACN white and everything that comes from PDP black. And pls let's not throw insulting words around cos there are people here that see us as role models. Let's not dissapoint them. |
Re: Oyo, UK Firm Sign Agreement On Soya Milk Production by Gbawe: 4:11pm On Nov 09, 2012 |
ayinba1: Mr Gbawe, What are you talking about? Don't you recognise what this forum is also? I.e an Aluu-like arena where frustrated and bellicose folks are always ready to find prominent targets to attack. Do you not see the 50 page long thread where they are attacking poor Ogugua88 merely because she is one of the stand-up and honest forumers we have here? I have not changed but I don't believe it is fair to keep tolerating open mischief against my person either. The point is that I called Ajimobi a technocrat correctly. If this forum is not what it is, then anyone in doubt of my use of the term should investigate before besmirching my character (as Afam4eva does) or making wrong assumptions as you clearly do below. As has been pointed out to you a few times, Ajimobi being referred to as a technocrat has nothing to do with his work as a Governor. If you are MD of UBA for many years and led the bank to growth and success with technocratic finesse, and you go on to become a Senator, would it be right for me to now ask what you have done as a politician for anyone to be calling you a technocrat? Would Fola Adeola (former GTB boss) stop being described as a technocrat if he had become Vice President alongside Ribadu? Ajimobi is a technocrat and I used the term correctly. Admit that and let us move on beyond this egotism. With all due respect, I would like youto tell us what Ajimobi has done for Oyo state that qualifies him to be regarded aa a technocrat? |
Re: Oyo, UK Firm Sign Agreement On Soya Milk Production by Gbawe: 4:20pm On Nov 09, 2012 |
afam4eva: Stop this disgraceful show of dishonesty. Once again I ask: was I right to call Ajimobi a technocrat? If yes, were you not wrong and mischievous to suggest I did so because he is an ACN Politician? Please give straightforward answers and stop this distasteful exhibition of dishonesty and hypocrisy you insist on persisting with. |

Paul John: 9 November 2012 , By Yemi Bamidele, Source: Daily Trust I am sorry folks, but this report begs a number of questions. Inquiring minds would like to know if the Oyo state government who appear to be no more than a partner in a joint enterprise - certainly judging from the other reports copied in below - is taking an undue amount of credit here.

Karma Foods to establish $20m new factory in AbujaSource |

Paul John: @gbawe, why not just overlook some posts at times. My brother, I do 99.9% of the time but some will just never give others peace here. Even when you speak 100% correctly they are trying to make points that does not exist because of their own prejudice and ignorance. It is totally annoying and uncalled for. Is Ajimobi not a technocrat? why should some show open egotism and ignorance to make an issue over a term I used correctly? |

Gbawe: Can we just stop all this... Bro he said sorry..Acually he told me to help him say sorry. Please...shikena |
Re: Oyo, UK Firm Sign Agreement On Soya Milk Production by Gbawe: 4:45pm On Nov 09, 2012 |
tedfx4life: My brother, I have no interest in pettiness but it is annoying how some conduct themselves here by derailing thread through their focus on personalities. Afam4eva is a prominent and liked member of this forum who should not engage in such behaviour. Whether I support the ACN or not is not reason for anyone to begin attacking what I write especially when it is 100% factually correct. Doing such simply amounts to practising what is ruining this forum i.e folks preferring to blindly attack the messenger while totally ignoring the message. Simply terrible. 1 Like |

Paul John: 9 November 2012 , By Yemi Bamidele, Source: Daily Trust This is what state governments should be doing - creating environments which are favorable to investors, so that those investors/businesses, such as Kama Milk Industry can come in and help create jobs. There are a few questions which were not addressed in this announcement. (1)Is Oyo state providing $25million to this company as a grant, loan, or what? (2)Why are we being told that Kama Milk will "gulp" $25million? What does this mean? (3)What is the monetary investment by Kama Milk company. (4)How is it possible to create 100,000 jobs through the activities of a single company (this seems like an impossibility or outright deceit, but I stand to be corrected. I sincerely hope that this Kama Milk does not end up milking Oyo state. I am truly concerned about the barrage of announcements such as this without much details. In this case the only sure thing we are informed of, is that Kama Milk will gulp money. Would someone please help make me feel better by clarifying these issues? |

Re: Oyo, UK Firm Sign Agreement On Soya Milk Production by MT: 7:19pm On Nov 09, 2012 |
It is really sad that some people are arguing about Ajimobi being technocrat or not while not addressing the main issue. What is the essence of being a technocrat when it is not reflecting in the governance of the state. Right questions need to be asked. The details of this deal are so scanty. At what cost is this deal to Oyo state govt ?. What are the terms of this partnership ?. Is this fund to be used budgeted for ?. If not, how will Oyo state fund her own part of the partnership ?. Must a governor make uncountable trips abroad before such a deal could be sealed ?. Let's call a spade a spade, Ajimobi has performed below expectations. All talks no actions. I hope one day, his interview prior to his election will be played to him. No major infrastructural projects. Sad! |
Re: Oyo, UK Firm Sign Agreement On Soya Milk Production by spiaggia: 7:26pm On Nov 09, 2012 |
Any investment that can create jobs is good for Nigeria but 100,000 jobs? Please, please let's try and give factual and realistic estimates. We are not all fools |

ayinba1: There is nothing impressive about this. "Foreign/abroad"does not automatically translate to "better". The leadreship in Oyo state has really fallen short of expectations. This appears to be a desperate attempt to show that Ajimobi is doing something. I searched for the company now on company house website: http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/f9d3268d3d95eb07881e807ff4fc6b9b/wcframe?name=accessCompanyInfo AND FOUND NOTHING! except the company uses a different trade name there is no such company called Kama milk industry in the UK. I hold no brief for any political party but as an Oyo state indigene, I am earger to see developments in my state, enough of all these window dressing. I was in Ibadan last month and to be honest there was no govt presence in terms of infrastructural developments and job creation. All i saw are few young men making nuisance of themselves in the name of enforcing traffic rules, apart from that there were some work going on on beautification of some roads like Ring Road but to be honest these beautification works are already being washed away by rain due to the low quality materials and possibly unqualified personnels being used. Also in the course of carrying out this 'beautification' the contractor is creating hazard everywhere by leaving concrete and building stuffs all around the major roads. Gov Ajimobi need to wake up and wake up fast Oyo state youths need jobs and not unnecessary 'beautification', the authenticity of the so called Soya milk factory will be confirmed later, what I'm sure is that you can't cover smoke very soon we shall see whether this is another form of window dressing by oyo state govt. |

"Soy(a)" milk; wonder where people will get money to buy the product. Hope economy would have become easier on the people by the time it hits the market. |
Re: Oyo, UK Firm Sign Agreement On Soya Milk Production by Nobody: 9:50pm On Nov 09, 2012 |
tunnytox: I've just finished serving a ban for an earlier post containing a url that looked iffy, so will go straight to the point. You did not locate a company called "Kama Milk Industry" because it simply does not exist! Karma foods Ltd on the other hand is a Nigerian-based Indian company which appears to be closely tied to Miroche Europe Ltd and Miroche Nigeria Limited Karma Foods Limited, a Nigeria-based firm, is to establish a $20 million (N32.40 billion) factory that will take delivery of locally produced soybeans at the end of this year’s harvest. I remain unconvinced that 100,000 jobs would result from this venture - if ever - in Oyo state alone, given that Benue state also appears to be a major player. There are of course other concerns too, but I would hold off from laying these on the line till the dust has settled “We see Benue farmers as key stakeholders in this project because the state plays a leading role in soybean production,” states Mirchandani. As for the UK-angle mentioned in the original article posted by @OP, I think we need look no further than this : Miroche Europe Limited was registered on 17 Apr 2002 with its registered office in London. The business has a status of active. Their founding director was Dipak Mirchandani, who is Canadian, aged 52. Miroche Europe Limited have a single shareholder; Miroche Nigeria Ltd. They have no known group companies. The company has assets totalling £226,179 plus liabilities totalling £182,488. They owe £182,488 to creditors and are due £222,041 from trade debtors. As of their last financial statement, they had £4,138 in cash reserves. Their net worth is £43,691, and the value of their shareholders' interest is £43,691.
