Abia state has been in the forefront of states increasing local manufacturing capabilities while the other parts of the country falters.

We praise the sterling leadership qualities of their leaders, especially Okezie Ikpeazu.

People may criticise you but your works are showing to ashame them all.

Nice one from Abia state. More local production is needed to boast our economy post covid

Good one

2 big headed people are not using face masks and not maintaining social distance in that picture..

2nd picture

Hmmmm

nice

Yes... So that it can be standardized

Igbo to the rescue again.
Aba amaka.
Biafra amaka
97% think they're punishing 5%,not knowing that 'dem de do themselves'.
If not for this global lockdown, d so called owners of d zoo would've headed to China to import this,wasting scarce forex,even when it can be produced in Aba.

SON should go and sit down.

Nice one from SON.
Kudos to Abia and Rivers.

Some of all these so called mask would infect you if one is not careful sef.

Nice one, but I no understand, we go talk sey we go inspect or commission product or an activity or event, na only pix of those wey dey Der go full everywhere, there won't be detailed pictures of the product or event itself.
Is it the cameramen or the media handlers that do not sabi their work?

Abia state may be poor in terms of infrastructure but economic wise, the state is more viable than 20 or more states..
Namely; SE..(Ebonyi, Enugu, Imo).. SW..(Ekiti, Osun).. NE..(Adamawa, Bauchi, Borno, Gombe, Taraba, Yobe).. NW..(Jigawa, Kastina, Kebbi, Sokoto, Zamfara).. NC..(Kogi, Kwara, Nassarawa,)

What saved SS states from this my unbiased list is their oil..

Meanwhile states like Anambra, Rivers, Edo, Lagos, Ogun, Kano Kaduna are way above Abia state..

This is what we should be celebrating, not appointment that won't help uor ur family in any way...

Good one
I hope after this situation we would continue to look inwards and use more made in Nigeria goods.

Meanwhile in America
A nurse without an N95 mask raced in to treat a 'code blue' patient. She died 14 days later

State should focus on what they have comparative advantage...

Good job.

Only Son? What of Daughter

4. The company had just received an order through the General Theophilus Danjuma Foundation to supply 200, 000 units of the barrier masks to Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps in the North East of Nigeria.

How many philanthropists, big men, States or LG in the SE are patronizing this company as well?

No be by shouting FG every time
We’ll all progress if charity begins at home too.

It boosts job creation and improves IGR for the State.
Nice one the GTD Foundation.

u11ae1013:
90% of masks worldwide are fake

What’s the meaning of this?

This is highly commendable
