Oga stop living a fallacy... I am an Igbo guy....
Am let me echo this to you ...ANAMBRA CAN NEVER SURPASS LAGOS

Lagos GDP is over $130bn...forget that old report from Wikipedia...
War or no war in anambra...u simply don't know what Lagos is..
And pls quit this self illusion and deceit that all the major imports are carried out by Igbos...the major imports sucking Nigeria's forex are done by NNPC by importing fuel, BUA, Dangote, FMN, food and chemical processing factories, and other major companies in Nigeria...even in cars and some machine importation are done directly by companies and multinational brands like bajaj, hisense, aliade and many more before they recouple them in their warehouses Only a small percentage especially the tokunbo goes to traders(Igbos)..and in total the worth isn't up to what those companies import...


And if u are using the Igbo's entrepreneur spirit built on business dominated by importing and reselling as a yardstick then ur delusional... Importation don't build an economy or add to GDP growth....but the state level of industrialisation and manufacturing is what adds up

Onitsha inland water port is not a sea port...Onitsha river remains a river ...no matter how you dredge it....a river remains a river and can not allow large Merck container ships to safely navigate through it hence can not host a deep sea port...
All the market in the SE including aba and Onitsha isn't up to all to all the market in Lagos put together...
Anambra hosting an international airport can never pose a threat to Lagos airport..the only airports at risk is IMO and Enugu airport....

Because you said you are an Igbo person doesn't mean I believe you....

wiseoneking:
You know quite in your heart that without Anambra people esp the biz men , there is no Abakeleke. Moreover, you are comparing a widely less educated, less industrialised and less developed Ebonyi to Anambra. Is there any major developed towns in Ebonyi apart from Abakeleke? Ebonyi today still remain the most illiterate state in the whole of southern Nigeria. I think the governor should focus on massive primary and secondary education for Ebonyians.
I truly commend him esp in the college of medicine.... King David University but I bet you, the University will be dominated by non indigenes of imo and Anambra because of two reasons; Merit cut off mark as well as the outrageous millions tuition that he put for it. Many families of Ebonyi may not afford it. Mark my words, that's what you gonna see there. Go to your University and see the there are more IMO and Anambra State Lecturers than Ebonyi people. Ebonyi is actually the least developed state in the south but I am happy they are coming up. After Lagos State in terms of Ubarnisatiom is Anambra. Yet, in the whole of Southern Nigeria after Lagos is Anambra while Ebonyi is actually the least with states like Ekiti, Bayelsa topping it.
I know people are just carried away with the fly overs and street lights of recent, and the big market, development center etc, that those not com close to the established Anambra State with multiple towns and cities.

I'm sorry to say that the Airport started by the governor is a misplaced priority because you gonna see low patronage. But look at what's gonna happen in Anambra airport, I heard is starting tomorrow band already booked up. I personally like Ebonyi as a state and have been involved in doing some charity stuff there through mission, build bore hole in izzi area through All saints Anglican Church, support some ministers that are living in abject poverty but for you to compare Anambra with Ebonyi is more than laughable. Hold it there and stop that division.

Ayade is constructing another airport..international, in Obudu where he comes from and has told his people to ostracised him if he doesn't finish the project before leaving office


This project ends any calculation of Enonyi hoping to corner the market up to Benue and even now Benue has restarted the airport in the airforce base just last week


Everybody is tapping for more job opportunities for their people looking inward and I don't see how the ebony airport can compete...no domestic patronage that will keep it profitable, as I see it

What I stated is facts DAT anyone who is ready to understand without sentiments will admit..u don't have to believe it today..but just know that u saw something like this today..cuz eventually u will believe it someday

But Yorubas have theirs naaa. Like Ijebu and Egba rivalry, also Aworis and Yelwa rivalry and so on

Rivalry is great but dirty old tribalism is something else.
I am not sure you would find any tread on Nairaland where a Yoruba is using derogatory language on another simply because they come from different parts of yoruba. Only the Igbos are capable of that. Biafra ga di egwu.

Obiano's Glittering Legacies: The International Convention Centre

The International Convention Centre, Awka nears completion. It is one of the outstanding legacy projects of the Obiano administration.

With capacity to accommodate over 10,000 persons, the ICC is rightly positioned to be a convention hub that will enable social and economic growth and drive development in specific areas of the economy.

In the video, attached, Commissioner for Housing - Hon Michael M. Okonkwo provides insightful details of the architectural masterpiece and explains the benefits to Anambra State.

Gov Obiano is committed to completing the ICC to ensure that ndị Anambra enjoy the benefits envisioned in its design and construction. His passion for the development of the State drives the impetus for the delivery of impactful projects even to the end his tenure.

Anambra state shall be great again.

Cmarketer:
Unbelievable. How can they import 49 forty feet containers when we can handle such iron works here. My company can handle it. It's a pity that they are undermining our abilities for chinese

Point of correction 69 of 40ft containers, the main auditorium have no pillar, its massive we have to import standard iron to avoid calamity in future

Thanks bro, I really appreciate.

globemoney01:

What I'm I coming to do in Ebonyi with over 80% poverty rate, when Ebonyi people are already cursing Umahi and running to Obiano's Anambra for economic survival. Obiano met Anambra poverty rate at over 55% and reduced it to 14%, while Umahi increased Ebonyi poverty rate from over 70% to over 80%. Besides is it the cement roads you want me to come and see. ezi

Oga stop talking ignorantly like all those afonjas.
GI to Ebonyi state n see the wonders umahi is doing there.
In terms of infrastructure ebonyi state n akwaibom are the best in Nigeria

TimeTraveller:
What's with Anambra and ugly substandard projects?
The airport looks like a giant warehouse.
The stadium looks like a high school playground.
Now, this conference hall looks like a scene from the book of Eli.

Anambra, you guys can do better o! Don't you guys see what's happening in Kaduna and Borno?

I don't want to mention Lagos before dem say Afonja. But take a look at Borno and bury ya heads in shame.

Jealousy will not kill some ppl
What's happening in Lagos apart from hold ups, end SARS panel n mysterious deaths.....
Oga park abeg

Asgard73:


8 years of Soludo will see Anambra buy out all those states like osun Ekiti ogun kogi .. ..abia .. to build igr..
Anambra agaba go..

oga you are looking for trouble.make we just discuss ANAMBRA matter only..if the indigenes of those states you mentioned begins to react in abnormal way, don't blame them!

Bros I have seen so many instances on nairaland. Please stop falling for this bullshit to talk low on igbos. You just type rubbish. I have lived in the North and igbos look for each other irrespective of which part of Alaigbo you are from. Again when Imo airport was to be built the funds for the airport during sam Mbakwe era were donated by all igbos. You guys should stop falling for this bullshit talk that igbos are not united. Nnamdi Kanu isn't it not the whole ohaneze body of all igbos that are on his case. Where is Sunday Igboho who has spoken on his matter? Abeg take a chill pill and don't comment on things you have no knowledge of.

You make me laugh. You areally basically defending igbo tribalism. If you really love your people and want their progress, you would have condemned the internal tribalism. Instead, you feel the best you can do is attack me.
Like I said before, you would never see this kind of internal tribalism among any other tribe in Nigeria.
I never said igbos are united or not, my post was about internal tribalism among igbos.

I love the guy. Has never seen one as calm as him here when takling haters. He always come with facts. For all my years of being here, I have learnt more from him than the entire forum. He doesn't look for trouble, not until you come for his state and her people. He will just ripe you apart with facts and figures. All other igbo states representatives and image makers should emulate him instead of childish rants. I know some non igbo pretend to be igbo here to sow discord. If I can recognise them, they should and come together to deal with them using facts and figures.

Igbo people are very progressive in nature so envy and bad bele is allowed.

What facts are you talking about? I am talking about internal tribalism among the Igbos. I don't understand how anything you wrote proves that there isn't huge internal tribalism among the Igbos.
But if you seek facts look no further, In this very thread, there is a dirty online war between Anambra and Ebonyi. I can show you many more nasty examples of Igbo tribalism if you want.
You would never see an Ogun man calling Ekiti undeveloped on nairaland. Igbos need to end this internal tribalism if they want to grow.

It's funny that you see me as the enemy here while the real enemies are the millions of petty Igbo tribalists. These are Igbos who think very poorly of other Igbos who are not from their towns or villages.

that is untrue. i dislike the way you are falling for the cheap trick. We have our issues as a tribe no tribe is perfect, but you are also denigrating igbos online with your comment so what makes you different from others?

The difference is clear, I am condemning a social ill among the Igbos but you are on the other side. You actually seem to be enjoying the petty tribalism. Yes, no tribe is perfect but no other tribe in Nigeria plays the internal tribalism card like the Igbos. I keep saying it, You would never see any Yoruba discrediting another Yoruba community on Nairaland or Twitter. If you even care about your people, you should be on my side not fighting me.

Yes i have seen cases where Yelwa and Egba people have had spats on Nairaland. You guys just fall for cheap propaganda abeg this won't work this time. There is no difference in what igbos are doing.

obynzo:


You do not denigrate your tribe like that Yorubas don't do that. Except guys like you, we know how Yelwa and Egbas drag themselves here on nairaland, but no one drags the matter like how you are doing with Igbos. Anything igbos is always what people like you masturbate on, whereas an igbo man even though loves money can do anything for it cannot be bought easily when he believes in an ideal

Keep supporting tribalism. I obviously cant help you.

Bros what are you trying to prove. In what way do Anambra people denigrate Ebonyi? where are your statistics? What percentage of Anambra population denigrate Ebonyi people? I am Anambra and my best friend that i trust so much is from Ebonyi Afikpo for that matter. You are overblowing things that shouldn't be.

My prove is in this very thread. I noticed that Anambra and Ebonyi were having a tribal war on this thread, I spoke against it but you were the only person who came out in their support to criticize me. If you love Igbo as you claim, you would have immediately condemned such bad actors but instead, you took on the only person condemning the nonsense.

Dude you were not condemning anything abeg. You wanted to use it as another means to thrash igbos, when other tribes do the same thing. No big deal after all they yab Anambra guys as traders nobody died as a result of it

It was your friends that were thrashing the Igbos not me. They started an Anambra vs Ebonyi war on this thread and you were enjoying it until I tried to stop it then you came out to defend. You are on my matter for condemning Igbo internal tribalism. I guess you support stuff like that but some of us are against it. You really hate your own people.
