The Restructuring has started.

Meanwhile, graduates of Agriculture Engineering, Crop Science, Animal Science e.t.c. Should be making millions in the Farms, not going to queue up for Bank interviews. Tinubu will force Nigeria to reset whether you like it or not.

Yes well supported its time to start shifting our food security away from the North claws especially food production, enough is enough.

SW have the best soil in Nigeria where you don't need fertiliser to grow anything, no erosion issue, no oil spillage, no contaminated water, good land texture and topography very ideal for food production.

Nice one and I want this to be extended to some SS area and SE I swear Al those useless bandit and boko animals activities will be the curb at least on farm produces that created food shortage we are seen today.

Show me the truth. By pasting the first appointment he made after becoming the head of State in 1966 And the permanent secretary appointment list during Aguyi Ironsi regime and also show me list of those he promoted to the Supreme Military Council immediately after he has assumed the office. . ..

And let see if there is any iota of Federal character in the list ....

people need to take notice when the devils says they are building dam, cause that is how they are causing the floods going on around the world, they are turning the dams into weapons to wipe out towns and cities.
In many of the recent floods around the world many are reporting the water that destroyed their town did not come from the sea, it came from the dam.

Pay attention Nigerians, the dams are to be built only in southwest states only by the government at the center. There is flooding all over Nigeria, why is it expedient to consign the projects to southwest only?.

These projects will be financed with South East and South South would and gas money, including the various taxes they and others pay to the center.

Is this the Nigeria you wanted?.
South East isn't financing anything

How can I know the meaning of GDP?

All I know is the GDP of the SE is low compared to the rest of the country. Not much is produced in the SE.
If you have contrary evidence of much higher GDP for the SE, the post it here for all yo see.
What and what are produced in the SE, how much does services and products from the SE adds to the National Gross Domestic Product?

Dude, he who asserts must prove!

Imagine….the same Ironsi Igbo view as naive for being too ‘Nigerian’ and unaware of the danger lurking around him! You lot are something else walahi!….Attempting in 2024 to ‘justify’ the nepotism and exclusion in the Tinubu gov’t using the perceived actions of a Igbo man in 1966! Assuming, without conceding, that Ironsi was nepotistic in his appointments and siting of projects/infrastructure, what of the other ethnicities/regions!? What offence did they commit against una!?

God bless you bro. Your likes are thinkers that view things on merit as your insight on the propsed dams show...unlike the lots on nairaland who are so miopic in thought and only see everything with negativity/tribalism. They made nairaland so disgusting lately.
DeLaRue:


Dams are built for specific purposes if the conditions are right.

Over the years, more dams were built in Northern Nigeria than any other part of Nigeria, and rightly so since they have larger rivers, that are suitable for dams, and they need irrigation far more than others.If they need more, then build it there.

I don't know how many rivers in the South East can accommodate a dam, and whether such dams will deliver much benefits. If there are, then dams can be built there.

But it should not be that because a project is going on in one region, other regions must get same project whether or not they need it.

As for the South South, while I am.not an expert in dams, many areas of the Niger delta are too flat for a dam. And do they need dams. If yes, then river basin authorities the South South (every region has a river basin authority) should make the business case and submit to the relevant ministry.

You can't beef the South West on this.

Contact your region's River Basin Authority and ask them why they are not proposing dams for your region.

That's is Ogun-Osun River Basin MD...we have other River Basins in Nigeria..

Benin-Owena, Niger-Delta, Sokoto-Rima, Cross Rivers, Anambra -Imo, Upper and Down Benue, Chad Basin ..etc...

What are the MDs of these River Basins doing That's the question...they are the ones to manage these Rivers and provide adequate Dams...not only to control floods , but to provide irrigation facilities for farming.


They should get to work!!!

Simply brilliant. You educated the crude, divisive and unrefined hacks always touting themselves "developers". As if topography and end-user needs does not matter. Just build dams in the SE because some are planned for the SW. These people's reasoning is so unbelievably crude, feudal and clannish. Have a fab weekend baba.

Under Obasanjo, Mukthar Shagari built dams in northern states nobody made noise. Did you hear River Osun something development? What about Niger Delta development Agency? Let them present their own agenda. I know this agency is doing its best in Niger Delta.

Abeg tell your people to wake up to their responsibility.
I was reading here in the morning how Ekiti State is embarking on Independent power supply. Soon South West will have network or rail system. Biafra will continue to kill themselves and illustrious sons and daughters, Northwith BH, banditry and kidnappings, South South one the hands of Wike and other incompetent governors.


This is why we need regional governments.

Leave southwest alone. They will teach the rest how and what to develop.

The way you are defending ur nepotism today is exactly how Igbos will defend theirs. No matter how far it is, Presidency must come to SE and una go hear nwi. Highest 12 years from now. Every appointment must be from SE and SS then few crumps of bread soaked in water will be shared to other regions.

Indeed. Let the IPOB lot, with the worst and most irresponsible leaders In Nigeria, continue to wail. I have always said it that the Igbos, because they are in reality lovers of 'one Nigeria' pretending to be seeking Biafra, are the least prepared for the Nigeria Tinubu wants to create where everyone will use what they have to gain what they want without being drawn back by the parasitism of 'one Nigeria'.

Tinubu is delivering on all promises made before the election. He said he would create regional development commission to help all region develop adequately commensurate to their unique endowment and capacity. He is doing that currently.

They now have SEDC. South East development commission. They won't lobby their leaders to provide what the SE needs. Instead they will wake all day to obsess about what Yorubas are doing. I really pity them.
