I AM NOT SURPRISE OF THE DILAPIDATED LEVEL OF INFRASTRUCTURE IN ABA. THE CITY WAS THE SETTING OF A BITTER FIGHT BETWEEN BIAFRA AND NIGERIA. I AM HOWEVER AMAZED BY THE WAY IN WHICH THE PEOPLE OF ABA HAVE COPED AND THRIVED WITH 50 YEARS OF FEDERAL GOV NOT INVESTING OR ALLOCATING ANY APPROPRIATE REVENUE FOR INFRASTRUCTURE ON THE SAME LEVEL WITH CITIES LIKE LAGOS. IGBOLAND IS THE EMERGING GIANT OF AFRICA, U CAN QUOTE ME ON THIS IN THE FUTURE. ![]() |

How come I did not see all this when I visited Aba. |

afam4eva: can post pictures next time you visit. |
Re: Welcome To Aba by Afam4eva(m): 4:32pm On Jul 02, 2011 |
I even asked my guide to show me the dirty places in Aba that I've been hearing about.Aba is just like every other Nigerian city. |

chino11:Haba my best friend, we are all one and we are only highlighting the areas our leaders need to do something on , at least it was because of one Nigeria that Ironsi introduced unitary system!! My friend i greet you Eze Chino |

If you are really my friend in one Nigeria, then do a balanced reportage |

chino11:dont mind that guy! who dont know what he is for! |
Re: Welcome To Aba by FACE(m): 5:17pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
chino11: You don't know what you are talking about Umuahia. The Umuahia on the express is the out skirts and it is better planned and bigger than Awka and you can confirm the population from 2006 census figures. You talk very carelessly and I wonder if you have actually been outside your cocoon. Onlytruth: The truth is that Mbakwe did a very good job with Umuahia,Owerri and Aba. Those three cities are well planned with straight and wide roads. Our buildings are mostly in line and you don't find houses facing east,west, north and south on the same street.There is extensive underground drainage system in Owerri and something of lesser scale in Umuahia. Next to Abuja, there is no other place in Nigeria as orderly and well planned as Owerri.(maybe we should all start posting pictures of our cities) We don't do flooding in those two cities and we don't do narrow and winding roads either. De Sam was on Aba's case before the military struck. What Aba needs is a facelift (road repairs and declogging of the drainage). The outline is already in place and it's a shame that our silly governor does not realise that Aba is Abia's cash cow. |

Re: Welcome To Aba by mensdept: 5:25pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
Aba is going to just be fine. Afterall, they have Theo Orji as their governor, and who knows, PDP may make him the Igbo candidate in 2015. And if for some reason he still cant perform since being selected as governor way back in 2007, then surely the all PDP returnees in state assembly will turn Aba into Africa's first class city. If that doesnt work, we got the entire PDP legislators in Abuja that all "won" their re-election, and they already promised international airport and dry ports from 2003 till now!!! |
Re: Welcome To Aba by EzeUche(m): 5:39pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
Aba is the opposite of Umuahia, but that is because Umuahia is the state capital. |
Re: Welcome To Aba by EzeUche(m): 5:42pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
Sam Mbakwe was another Igbo politician who cared deeply about his people. ![]() |
Re: Welcome To Aba by ezeagu(m): 7:14pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
EzeUche: It's because Umuahia is not as industrialised and Aba is with more people. Umuahia has always been a quiet clean market town, well until recently. |
Re: Welcome To Aba by chino11(m): 7:53pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
FACE: You arguement is baseless and devoid of any facts. Why in the world will you compare Awka to a small Umuahia. However nothing could have taken me to umuahia few months back except for a traditional marriage of a friend. On approaching Umuahia one hardly know its a state capital. I can tell you that umuahia is more like an improved local government council. You mentioned population, apart from state civil servants in Umuahia nothing more is happening in the town. Awka is more balance, organized, planned and bigger 3x the size of the umuahia. Awka has the much needed population from civil servant to the students population that add to bolstering social life to it. If have been to Awka recently you won't have the moral justification to post trash on this thread. Back to the topic: I think your gov need to wake up, Aba is a major disaster in the SE and I think it calls for collective efforts of the citizenry. |
Re: Welcome To Aba by chino11(m): 8:15pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
^^^^ See the 2006 census result before start frustrating yourself. http://www.nigeriamasterweb.com/Nigeria06CensusFigs.html Abia state is the least in population in the southeast. |
Re: Welcome To Aba by ezeagu(m): 8:22pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
chino11: I don't really see, in terms of infrastructure, what Oka has over Umuahia. Umuahia has always been known as one of the cleanest and most peaceful towns in Nigeria, until the recent problems in Abia. The Umuahia you're even talking about is on the outskirts which is surrounded by several villages. Even the villages are becoming more advanced with gsm masts and better improved roads. Have you visited Library Avenue or the world bank? Have you seen the new housing and recent developments there? Oka may be bigger than Umuahia in terms of land size and population, but it is hardly bigger than it in terms of advancement. |
Re: Welcome To Aba by ezeagu(m): 8:25pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
chino11: The census says Ebonyi is the least. The census also says there are 500,000 people in Onicha so you should really ask yourself how seriously you want to take this information. |
Re: Welcome To Aba by kasiem(m): 8:29pm On Jul 03, 2011 |
Bia ezeagu, if this a joke better stop. How can u in ur wildest dream compare any part of abia state to anambra? This like comparing ghana to usa. |
