Obiano is just pilling up debts, Anambra domestic debts is now almost equal with Enugu while Ebonyi is now the least indebted state. I marvel when you chestbeating Bushmen keep claiming that obiano did not borrow

Why do you guys always think nobody has access to Microsoft excel to type any crap they like as debt of states and post it to misinform folks? Why don't you always provide a credible source so that people will see it from a credible source like NBS? I can also type in my own excel and say Enugu state owes 7 trillion naira. Does it make it true just because I typed it and posted it?

All that is left now is to increase the sitting capacity of the Awka City stadium and complete the car parks according to the specifications of the second phase.

No need to start replicating sporting facilities again because Anambra already possessed all sporting facilities at Alex Ekwueme Square to host any national or international games.

There is no way Anambra would have hosted a huge sports event as the 2020 Nigeria Police games if it did not have all the sporting facilities.

Very soon, the state will also possess a FIFA standard stadium to host FIFA soccer events such as international matches.

The stadium is a FIFA GOAL project. It is a field for training and development not full capacity crowds. The state government is following a pre specified design. It is a MINI stadium. They should use the rest of the land there to build other sporting facilities like basketball courts with support of NBA Africa, Tennis courts, Boxing/wrestling gym, Volleyball, swimming to make the place a mini sports complex for sports development. A full capacity stadium can be built elsewhere.

Oga,
Say what you know.

Anambra already has a sports Arena with all sporting facilities. From Volleyball, Olympic swimming pool, basketball etc. The ONLY sports facility lacked was a FIFA standard stadium for soccer and athletics events.

That is why last year's Police Games hosted by the state only used Rojenny stadium for soccer and athletics events. After the event, Obiano promised to build a FIFA standard state stadium in the state, as well as launch a state male and female football team.
1. Anambra Bombers (Male football team)
2. Anambra Babes (Female football team).

the way you guys hype this millennium city. I expect to see buildings.. If they can't concentrate on the landscaping and opening it up for people to build they should ease on the hype..

I don't think they are hyping the Awka Millenium City. I think the project facilitators have planned a truly world-class city there.

I am watching to see the Awka Millenium city, HELIU Gardens and Enugu Golf & Centenary city which will become the true choicest city in the southeast and south-south region.

Obiano should have added construction of more pavilion to the contract I don't know how much it will cost him to do that, I'm not surprise no body is even proud enough to post it here on nairaland, if it was the other way round the post would have hit front page by now

This is the first phase of the stadium. Which is to create a FIFA standard pitch, Floodlights, Public address systems, and able to transmit LIVE matches from the stadium will be completed this year.

The second phase of the project is focused on increasing the sitting capacity. I prefer the phased construction approach so that the stadium can continue to be used for sporting events and sports development in the state, while more pavillions are gradually added. Than to leave it abandoned for 10 years until a 30,000 - 50,000 Pavillion is completed. Like many stadia in Nigeria today.

As far as you have contributed to the wasting of innocent souls, posterity will judge you.

The bible made it clear that it will visit the sins of father's on their children and generation to come.

You are contributing to Terrorism and all forms of vices.

Go and collect your own share of human meat and eat.

Alu melu.

I can reveal to you free of charge that Igbos global financial network are still intact. All the Fulani herdsmen, army and DSS childish propaganda that ESN are cannibals and unknown gunmen is TOTALLY ineffective. You guys can continue burning people's houses in Izombe, Awo or Barr Ejiofor's home and say its ESN. Nobody in the entire world is decieved one bit that the perpetrators of these crimes are Fulanis in Nigerian security forces.

The grudge any of us have with IPOB is simply on the tactical duties of ESN. Some of us strongly believe that Biafrans MUST have the freedom to hold political opinions and religious beliefs without any fear. I don't like APC, but Biafrans that love them should not be made to live in fear. The same way Biafrans who are jews or Muslims cannot be discriminated on.

While i understand there are some criminal elements who infiltrated ESN. Your FG masters silly attempt to frame IPOB or ESN by killing people and forging stories or videoed "confessions" is an indication of your childish mindset. No fool in the world is deceived about the activities of Fulani militias in the south-east zone under the guise of Nigerian army and DSS. If you doubt me, ask your ambassador to sample US diplomatic intelligence on who is behind the killings in south-east Nigeria. Even North Korean government does not indulge in the type of extremely childish propaganda of Nigerian federal government. I don't even think that the Nigerian federal government understands the word "duress". So let them stage more drama to discover where IPOB stationed people who would be suicide bombers or who would be blamed for the bombs the army and DSS would be planting to kill Igbos. Nobody is fooled one bit with these silly dramas.

I truly don't have time to join issues with hateful abokis who are sworn to destruction of Ndigbo. A typical aboki does not care about Igbo life. That is why you use the strategy of killing innocent people in the east.. But i just want to let you know that your cover is already blown. So quit trying.

U be calming down

I think I get what oremii is saying. If u don’t know,oremii once said here that he used to be a strong financial contributor to the coffers of Ipob till d group started going beserk. He stopped totally. I once read that here about him. So it isn’t about the ipob nonsense.
I understand his point well.

Besides,MelesZewani...I still haven’t forgotten the nasty reply u once gave me on this thread sometimes in d past about the useless sit at home? I will revisit that when I am in d right state of mind.

And finally,so on this thread,they say you’re me and I am you? Lmao

Yes, I contributed MONTHLY to IPOB financially for so many years! In fact, many people here know me as the person that reminds them to pay their monthly dues. Infact, another member of the forum here started contributing because I persistently urged her to contribute to the safety of our region by supporting the ESN vigilante.

The only reason I stopped contributing was using ESN to stop elections in Biafraland. Which is TOTALLY against their one and only role of securing our forest from the rampaging herders killing farmers and raping our women. The politics of election or no election in Biafraland should be decided by our people and not anyone abusing the ESN mandate to scare our people from participating in elections if they choose to. That was an unpardonable redline that forced my withdrawal from IPOB. It underscored that some people could also abuse the ESN mandate and turn it into Boko Haram if they felt that is where their interest was.

Exactly. Immediately Yorubas took it from then, they maintained their Yoruba Movie trademark and never integrated it into the main stream Nollywood thus claiming ownership and maintaining their turf.

Same with the Northerners that most people think they are senseless . They maintain theirs and trademark it as Kannywood, receiving exclusive enforcement, recognition and aid for it.

It was after our kinsmen have realised that they have lost the game that they started acting funny, most of them realised that they are third choice in endorsements and awards in the movie scheme. Instead of them to shoulder their utter defeat like men and women, they are looking for a way to smuggle themselves back home and expect us to give them heroes welcome. They think we are ignorant, that we don't know their condition.
It is now obvious to their ignorant selves that there was never a Nigerian Nollywood but Igbo Nollywood

The game became obvious to them when Africa Magic launched Yoruba Channel and still use both the and new for Yoruba films with different percentage of Yoruba language in it. They begged for Igbo channel but by then it was already too late.

I swear eh, If someone else try to package that rotten Nollywoods defeat as return for us here again I will break bottle on his/her head.

In the past, one used to be saddened with stuff like this. These days, it gladdens me so much!

You know, Igbos are one of the most stupidly stubborn groups in the world. So, I have seen that their nature is neither to learn from the experience of their parents nor the experience of other Igbos. For them, personal experience is the best teacher. So, let them suffer the bitter personal experience and learn the hard way.

I heard some of them went back to buy lands where some of their fellow Igbos buildings were knocked down in Lagos! Okay, like the person re-selling your brother's land to you is so brain dead that he does not know you are also Igbo abi? In your mind, you are buying an Imo man's land or Anambra man's land, but you forget that the person selling the land to you sees you all as 'IBOS"!

In a few years' time, when they return with bulldozers to knock down the same buildings, you will start making videos again calling on southeast governors to scold the Lagos state government not to knock down your buildings. They suddenly realize too late that they are not Imo, Anambra, or Ebonyi, that they are simply "IBOS"! You can just see that sometimes, they simply deserve the hard lessons they are taught so that they will be a little tactful in Nigeria.

I love the saying below because it's precisely an accurate depiction of our people's deep sedation and lack of awareness of what "One Nigeria" is really about.

See these ones. This is not worth celebrating because Nollywood lost her relevance the very day they left Igbo land, now when they are at the verge of being anhilated by Yoruba Movies in Lagos, they want to bring it home so that we will all share the disgrace together.

No, no, no, they should enjoy their defeat and disgrace in peace.

Ọ dị mma, a gbakwuru ndị iro mana ọ Diba njọ e bunata ya ụnọ. Ndị ara.

They think we all don't know about what they are facing in Lagos. Nonsense, they didn't learn from our musicians when they lost music to Lagos and fell for the same stupidity. If they can't fight Yoruba home movies in that Lagos that they ran to, they have no businesses in bringing their defeat home. No Apologies and accolades from this angle. Nollywood is dead.

I need to buy you a bottle of Hero beer! One thing about the Igbo person is that he/she desperately wants to be accepted as a "Nigerian" if there is any true word as "Nigerian". However, whether they pretend or are genuinely ignorant about what Nigeria truly is about, they will all get the same treatment by Nigeria.GUARANTEED!
So it is better to understand Nigeria and act according to the realities than play ostrich all the time.

Igbos are the only ones that carry the "One-Nigeria" mantra on their head like a burden that has been killing them. Nollywood practically started in Iweka road, Onitsha and Pound Road, Aba with the early movies such as living in bondage, Nneka the pretty serpent, etc. The Yorubas quickly set up their own "Nollywood" in Lagos and the north quickly set up its own version in Kano. Shockingly, the Igbos decided that they needed to "UNITE" Nollywoods and moved theirs to Lagos and started the English movies! The Yorubas used their money and Infrastructure to set up another specific Yoruba movies version in Ibadan, while Igbos were still too ashamed to continue Igbo language movies like Living in Bondage that gave them fame in the first instance! They said that they didn't want to make "Igbotic" movies. Whatever that meant. In time, those tactless Igbos seeking a "UNITED Nigerian Nollywood" have gradually learned that there is nothing "Nigerian" that can survive or have support from other tribes.

It is the same thing that they did to some Igbo Musicians that thought that if they sang in Yoruba language or English, somehow those people will not remember that they are Igbo. grin Well, such idiocy! None of those musicians exist today. It is the artists that understood their audience and understood that in Nigeria, it is only your people that will promote you first before others will appreciate you. So they sang mostly in the Igbo language that are still around today and doing very well. All the "One Nigeria" artists that preferred singing in strange languages than their own have all been liquidated.

Anywhere in the world, what I have written here will be considered extreme nationalism and distasteful. But Nigeria is not a normal place. It is a place where people ask your name and your parent's tribe before they decide if your art is good or not. Those "Lagos" Igbos and others that would like to play the ostrich and pretend that what has been said here is untrue should continue to delude themselves. From knocking down their houses and markets in Lagos to other practices they have faced, I am just glad that some of them are beginning to smell the coffee and understand the true nature of the space called Nigeria. That is just the bitter truth. They can continue to ignore it at their own peril.

Do you think governors of south-south will mobilise support for a southeast candidate in APC and not support Atiku or Tambuwal having wike as running mate in PDP. See the best bet for APC is to have Osinbajo on board with a northern Muslim running mate.

Oga,
You know very well that your analysis only makes sense in an environment like America where elections are free and fair. In Nigeria, only Jonathan ever lost an election because he was too afraid of using federal might and the army to impose himself as all the others do. 2023 will not be different from 2019 or any other previous election in Nigeria for that matter.

You are on a long thing thinking that PDP will defeat APC without a formidable nationally popular northern candidate that APC knows they cannot just write results and it will stand. Which Igbo politician can the entire country riot for if he is rigged out? Peter Obi or Sam Egwu?

You already knew in your mind that picking a soft Igboman as the PDP candidate is the surest defeat on arrival for the PDP, and nothing can be done about that. Else, the APC federal government will call out the army on innocent protesters as they always do.

Good suggestion, but is there enough space for a 4-star hotel? It’s good to have a nice open space so the landscaping can have the desired scenic impact...not to mention space for the car park as well!

I think the gov’t could consider buying out whoever owns that unsightly looking warehouse next door. It doesn’t fit in with the plans for a world-class convention centre and lowers the tone of the area! If they can acquire the adjoining land then they would have more than enough space for the hotel.

I think they have already reserved the space for the hotel. If you watch the video below, at 11:50, the commissioner stated what the reserved space was for. I think they are planning a multistorey hotel. Perhaps upwards of 5 floors so that international hotel franchises will be attracted to it due to the number of rooms. I am sure they will have enough space behind the building for a swimming pool.

@ bolded GBAMEST!!!
A few months ago, I personally compared mktinsight's grammar and Abagworo / JohnBullMyson's style in the Imo thread. They have a deep-seated hatred for Anambra and Anambra people, but they will always claim to come from a silly location that they don't even know the LGA it belongs in Anambra.
Then they try to hide their hatred by first blaming the Anambra's governor or its religious leaders or other Igbo leaders as though those are his real target. Then he will denigrate any progress or projects in Anambra by posting the picture of Paris, Washington DC, or Tokyo as what Awka should be. For example, he will prefer not to post Imo airport, but post London Heathrow airport as what Anambra airport should be. Meanwhile will not tell you that London is the capital of a superpower that colonized Nigeria. Besides, Abuja the national capital does not even come close to Aberdeen infrastructure-wise, but he demands that Awka which is a sub-national capital must look like London! cheesy

In between the lines of "suggesting the "standard" Anambra must surpass", he will denigrate Anambra and her people while at the same time trying to gloss over the insults as being objective. Like saying no Anambra city has dual-carriage roads like Aba. While at the same time not mention that all the said roads in Aba are impassable swamps! While you cannot find such roads in any Anambra city! He will tell you that Kano contributes more VAT than Anambra, but will not tell you that Kano receives double of what it contributes as VAT from the federation account, but Anambra receives less than half of its so-called "little" contribution to VAT.

If you take time to do the comparison, you will see exactly the same manner of expression and building fake arguments by citing only beneficial data and leaving out glaring contrary data. As if everybody here is so brain dead that they would not notice the big gap they omitted in their usual mischievous writeup.

International Conference Center, Awka nears completion.

Designed like the famous American B52 Bomber, this 10,000 sitting capacity event center will change the cultural landscape of South East Nigeria on completion.

It is one of the iconic landmarks of Governor Obiano’s glittering legacies.

This is truly going to be an iconic building. I am so so worried about its maintenance after completion and commissioning unless they build the proposed 4-5star hotel in that compound quickly. So that the same gardeners and janitors of the hotel can maintain the ICC and prevent dust and cobwebs from gaining traction in any of its vast rooms. Our people are just not skilled in keeping these types of massive public facilities clean and well maintained except under some type of private sector hotel environment / management.

Since we already have Golden Tulip in Anambra, perhaps they should approach the Protea group for partnership in building the hotel. Even if the state needs to fund some percentage of the construction and furnishing of the hotel so that they will reap a certain percentage of the profits too.

Based on how iconic this building is, they really need to Fastrack the completion of the accompanying hotel to ensure it does not fall into disrepair before a hotel to guarantee its proper daily maintenance is built.

We have already seen the Nigerian army commit crimes against humanity in IZOMBE and AWO-MMAMA. They are not afraid of killing innocent poor civilians in the southeast for nothing. But they will all answer for crimes against humanity as these pieces of evidence as well as the names of the local commanders in charge of these operations are being collected and taken to the right court rooms globally.

…Says issue will soon be history

*Flags off Ingrace Water-on-Wheels enterprise

Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State has assured the people of the state that water supply challenges will become history as soon as the AFD (French Development Agency) supported water projects come fully on stream in a few months time.

Gov. Ugwuanyi’s administration is participating in the AFD (French Development Agency) Support to 3rd National Urban Water Sector Reform Project, which will deliver end-to-end water supply solution in Enugu metropolis.

Speaking during the inauguration of the Water-on-Wheels enterprise, an initiative of Ingrace Group designed to deliver potable water to points of need through mobile application order and other ancillary services, to complement the remarkable efforts of the state government to ensure steady supply of potable water to Enugu people, Gov. Ugwuanyi disclosed that within the AFD implementation plan, the Detailed Engineering Design of works component of the project is in progress.

The governor, who highlighted the progress made by his administration in providing potable water to the people of the state in spite of the heavy challenges it met on ground in the water sector, added that “the tender for rehabilitation of Oji and Ajali water schemes (including water treatment plants) and other works would commence by the end of this year”.

According to him, “the dilapidated water pipeline networks in Enugu metropolis will be replaced with new ones while new estate developments and unserved neighbourhoods will be connected to the public water supply system”.

Gov. Ugwuanyi who stated that at inception he met a heavily challenged water sector especially at the production end, revealed that “the Oji River and Ajali water schemes were decrepit with daily water production far below their installed capacities” and “the 9th Mile Crash Borehole Programme was comatose and its major installations had been vandalized occasioning grossly inadequate potable water supply to Enugu city”.

On progress made by his administration in providing potable water to the people of Enugu State, the governor listed as follows: “Emergency rehabilitation of Oji and Ajali water schemes resulting in improved water supply to most parts of Enugu city including GRA, New Haven, Asata, some parts of Independence Layout, Achara Layout, Trans-Ekulu and Coal Camp areas, etc.

“Construction of additional five (5) functional water boreholes in Nsukka and this has led to great improvement in water supply in Nsukka Urban; construction of water pipeline extensions in many streets and communities in Enugu Urban and Nsukka due to increased water supply; complete rehabilitation of 9th Mile Crash Borehole Programme that is fully powered by solar energy.

“Eight (cool water boreholes are already productive in this scheme and soon, with the imminent inauguration of this project, water supply to Enugu metropolis will receive a significant boost.

“Rejigging and retooling of Enugu State Water Corporation to ensure a competent, well-equipped and well-motivated workforce; bidding process for drilling of ten (10) new solar energy-powered water boreholes in Okwojo Ngwo is on course; and Enugu State government’s participation in the AFD (French Development Agency) Support to 3rd National Urban Water Sector Reform Project will deliver end-to-end water supply solution to Enugu metropolis”.

Appreciating the complementarity of the Ingrace Water-on-Wheels initiative, Gov. Ugwuanyi congratulated the President of Ingrace Group, Mr. Chinedu Onu for the business venture, describing him as “one of our illustrious sons, a young and bold entrepreneur, imbued with uncommon courage and the willingness to take the plunge”.

In his remarks, Ingrace Group President, Mr. Onu expressed gratitude to Gov. Ugwuanyi for honouring the invitation to flag off the enterprise.

He explained that the scheme was designed to complement the laudable efforts of the state government at providing potable water to Enugu people, stressing that “there is no state in this country the government has sufficiently provided enough water for the people”.

Mr. Onu pointed out that Enugu State has grown in population under Gov. Ugwuanyi’s administration, adding that the friendly investment climate the governor has sustained in the state “has made it possible that investors troop down to Enugu for investment. Hence the high demand for potable water in our state”.

Dignitaries at the event include the Deputy Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Enugu State, Hon. Innocent Ezeoha, the Chairman of Udi Local Government Area, Hon. Ifeanyi Agu, the Executive Secretary, Enugu State Pilgrims and Welfare Board, Barr. Nestor Ezeme, and the Chairman, Enugu State Local Government Joint Account and Allocation Committee (JAAC), Hon. Engr. Hyacinth Ngwu, among others.

I think Obiano might somehow be frustrated at the pace of work by the contractor because they always will say they pleaded with him to come back and see that something he expected to have been completed will be completed. Hopefully, the guy will complete laying the pitch as promised.

Onitsha Fire Incident: Anambra State Government Takes Possession Of Site

By Ejike Abana (ABS Government House Correspondent)

Anambra State Government has sealed and taken possession of the fuel station, Chris Tee and Silver Fuel Station which was gutted by fire last night.

Governor Willie Obiano who gave the directive when he visited the scene, directed law enforcement agencies to close down fuel stations in the state where gas skits are cited.

The governor explained that he got Intel that the fire was ignited when the dealers were in the process of offloading and discharging cooking gas.

However, he expressed happiness at the response time by the fire service and security agencies and warned dealers to desist from building gas skits within their premises.

The member representing Onitsha Constituency 2 at the State House of Assembly, Mr. Eddy Ibuzo, Transition Committee Chairman for Onitsha North, Mr. Patrick Ayamba, Anambra State Fire Chief, Mr. Martin Agili, Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Petroleum matters, Mr. Peter Nwosu as well as heads of security agencies, were at the scene to recieve the governor.

Recall that on Sunday, December 12, 2021, at about 7.30pm, the fire broke out at one of the petrol stations (Chris Tee) around Borromeo roundabout, Onitsha.

Thankfully, no life was lost.

Has Another commercial flights landed/take-off after the first commercial flight

Yes, flights have been landing and to and from Lagos and Abuja since last week. The current Airpeace 5-days schedule is:
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Saturday and
Sunday.

One hopes that the airport road is used to jump-start a modern business district in Anambra state. The types of buildings and hotels allowed along that road, as well as the trees, flowers, and road markings should all be done at the highest standard. Like the picture on the left.

One hopes that someone in government will get around and properly mark the road for a start. Then the state ministry of lands and urban planning will mark out the plots on that road for the types of buildings and services expected on the road.

Every effort must be made to prevent this road from becoming another Ziks avenue with Eke Awka type of market buildings allowed along this airport road. There are already A LOT of shady developers claiming to have land for estates and trading stores along that road! One hopes the state will jealously protect that area to help launch Anambra as a state that has modern central business district areas.

It's probable that the materials for the shops will be light weight imported products. It's likely they are waiting for the materials, if not they should have completed the shops months back.

Yes, they'll probably use light weight materials. I have looked at the initial pictures and it showed that they intend to use glass partitions for the shops instead of walls.

EBONYI State International Airport is speedily becoming a reality.

The runway, taxiway, apron, terminal building, control tower, hangar, parking space are all simultaneously going on as can be seen in the picture attached.

The Airport Runway is constructed with 1 ft concrete pavement and promises to last beyond 50 years.

At the Airport completion, it will comfortably compete for the Best Airport in the country, both in size and quality delivery of services.

It is EBONYI TO THE WORLD.

*See the last picture.

Dave Umahi must do everything within his powers to complete this airport next year!

He must commission it before by December 2022 so that this does not become the biggest abandoned project in Nigeria if he ever leaves office without completing it. I am only pleading, I am not ordering him.

This Ebonyi state international airport has very great potentials for the future of Ebonyi state and should be prioritized by every means necessary to complete it at least 6 months before May 2023!
