You call this a mall?

NNDC Shopping Mall

Your first paragraph is referring to a mall as a sign of societal development? smh... Why don't they tackle issues that need immediate attention... (hospitals/helth centres schools, roads)

And how many people will be able to afford the shops in this malls?

Third paragraph... I will avoid the road you are directing me to...

Conglomerate run by who exactly? At the end of the day will the northern society be better of with the activities of this commission?

*drops pen*

NGpatriot:


Factories are not development, they create jobs and produce things, but malls reflects developments like developed societies and on top of that, they create more jobs than many factories and even generate more IGR that states build roads, bridges and other public infrastructures with.

Next time you visit a mall, count all the shops, the owners, the workers, the vendors that supply their goods and services and so on, I'm sure we are talking about hundreds, more than a lot of factories.

Factories are mostly build and operated by private entities, no state governments, I'd even love to see your own developed communities with factories built by your state governors, please show us.


NNDC is a conglomerate with interests in a lot of areas with more workers than whatever factory you are talking about.

Beats me why some of you criticized so much, but end up sounding illogical and off the wagon.

IGR from such investments is what they build all the things you listed with, without IGR from diversification, states can not build anything, elevate your thinking.

And how many people will be able to afford the shops in this malls?

The fact that you can not afford to buy anything doesn't mean others can not or that the states involved can not generate any IGR to develop with.

Third paragraph... I will avoid the road you are directing me to...

Don't be scared, say what's on your mind.

A sad reflection of your own ignorance, of course.

Meanwhile, exactly what are they doing in your own states with nothing to show?

Tomide007:

Lol....its either u're not a northerner or u're just being mischievous.......

Shakespeare - as you like it.

This building is over 5years old...

So the monies gotten from the investment of the conglomerate why are we not seeing them in the things I listed?

I was referring to paying for the shops not buying from the shops... How many can afford that?

You are once again directing me to that road and I refuse to travel on it..

You can not see anything because you are not looking and the fact that you can not see or look doesn't mean they are not doing anything.

I was referring to paying for the shops not buying from the shops... How many can afford that?

Paying for the shops is the business of the people paying for the shops, some people go to the market to sell, some go to the mall to sell, where people sell and what they can afford is their business, not yours.

You are once again directing me to that road and I refuse to travel on it..

They why not just keep quiet and move on if you can not express yourself like grown adult.

Lmao... Really there is no point taking this further...

One can even share his mother with his father, no problem. just make one trip to Malaysia or India, when you come back successfully with your throat intact you become egwe. or you can join dem Evans or Invectus Obi business

To start with, it beats me why such project if sited in any other place outside Nigeria is a good thing, but in Nigeria or outside your own state, it's a bad thing or something that must be criticized in Nigeria.

This is the kind of backward mentality killing Nigerian youths, all they do is cry, moan and criticize, I mean, what's there no badmouth and criticize in a money generating and job creating investment, just what?

Risingblue008:
Wetin North wey no get oil take affect NDDC,when northern states don begin to get oil for dier state?

We are not talking about NDDC - Niger Delta Development Commission, the topic is New Nigeria Development Company (NNDC).

Don't count yourself among lezy youths.
'the New Nigerian Development Company (NNDC).''
not
Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).

Human beings.

At the end of the day will the northern society be better of with the activities of this commission?

Ask the northerners living inside the housing estates they built, ask the northerners selling and making a living inside the mall, ask the thousands of northerners with jobs working in all the 5 hotels they own and in all the other businesses they operate from agric to mining, oil and gas and so on.

Sometimes I just wonder why the average Nigerian youth is so shallow and shortsighted.

MikeBetty:
