Olumo and his agboro in lagos has done just that. No state in Nigeria is as backward as South west in terms of transportation, you guys can only deceive those who are not traveling out of their state

MyVILLAGEpeople:
This guy is working well, even with the meager revenue Ebonyi gets from the FG.

Awkabigboy:
i have passed through this mountainous place in Edda on my way to Ohafia in Abia state. This bridge is well needed. It will prevent the accidents on the top of that hill. Infact Abia people stand to benefit as much as Ebonyi people because it will make going to Abribra, Ohafia and Arochukwu to either calabar or Enugu easier

OreMI22:



Hehehe...lol....fulani guy preaching against Islam?

Abeg, let Umahi borrow from Islamic bank and improve the lives of Ebonyians! After all, [s]many Ebonyians are practicing good Muslims.
[/s]
By the way, the dispute in Nigeria WAS NEVER and HAS NEVER been about religion. Its just a tribe in Nigeria that wanted to hide under Islam to dispossess others of their land.

A Nigerian practicing whatever faith they like can live with other Nigerians. AS LONG AS HE DOES NOT GO INTO THE BUSH TO ANNEX LARGE SWATHES OF FARMLAND AND CALL IT A "RUGA-CALIPHATE"

SmartPolician:
How is a state government supposed to give jobs, please? This mentality is the reason all states' civil service is bloated with workers who do nothing but chew gums and discuss politics and sports in the office every morning.

Even though they are the most unproductive people, you dare not owe their salaries. Most of them don't even come to work but ask for salaries every month. Salaries for doing what exactly?

What governors do is to build capacity and create enabling environment for businesses to thrive. Governors have no business creating jobs, unless there is employment gap in the state civil service.

Sheggy13:

Seriously, this is what I like about him even though I'm not from the South East. This is a state that is not oil producing like Abia and Imo with idiots as governors, a state with meagre revenue and yet Umahi is in his second term when most governors tend to be complacent but he isn't and has commissioned 15 flyovers, not owing salaries in small Ebonyi that is meant to be the poorest state in the South-East. This is what only visionary leadership can produce. It's people like these that should be talking about becoming President.

GenBuhari:
He doesn't engage expensive foreign construction companies and uses direct labour so he is able to complete projects at a tiny fraction of the normal cost . If you see some of his mega projects he uses bamboo instead of expensive scaffolding rods and he uses human labour where others are hiring or buying expensive machinery.

Artisticity1:


I can tell you this... This is the best tructure you can get from any sitting governor. Dave doesn't take shit. In as much as I hate him for his cruelty to workers but as a civil engineer who have worked in some of his contracts, I tell you this... It is at its Ultimum strength.

Devil1Messenger:

Please try to do fact findings before commenting. That man is basically the best of these sets of govs that will be going with buhari. How much is ebonyi getting that this man is using to work, from university of medical science, to international market to international airport to computer village to several road projects with meagre resources.
He has created enough employment

Eastcaostboy:
None in Enugu State isn't the same allocation or is Ebonyi own in dollers

anonimi:


How many teachers has he employed and how much did it change the ratio of teachers to students in schools? How has the number of children in government schools changed?
Can you please answer

Ebubu2:
He is employing over 10,000 civil servants by the end of 2nd quarter of this 2022; that is by the end of august.

anonimi:


How will the governors do all these without an adequate civil service
Is there no gap in the civil service of our 36 states and 774 LGAs? Are they still the same ratio to the population as in the 1970s and 1960s? Are all government works done as in the past?

Hello OP
Please, where precisely is it sited?

Randomgist:
Respect to this Governor. I wonder where he gets the money from that the rest of South East Governors cannot get from

MEGAWATCH:





Hahahaha, you are a true son of a Yoruba man with a Yoruba blood. The envy you have for the Igbos did not start from you, it started in the time of your grandfather Awolowo and it later cost him his presidency, I hope this your generation will learn from him.

Grgton:
Where is the traffic?? I thought flyover is built to contend traffic flow

Tomek09:

This una Igbo Muslims claims only exist on Nairaland.

Like you will tour the whole SouthEast yet you won't see a single Igbo Muslim faithful abi dem dey hide dey practice am??

If you still check many mosques across Igboland, na still aboki and mallam you go see there.Bro you lie in south east ebonyi State has the highest indigenous moslims, come to enohia Etim in Afikpo north local government that's where u will locate the Islamic world about more than 40%of the igbo indigenes in that community are moslims

Make una just end this Igbo Muslim narrative abeg.

IKBARUTEN11:
Dave is overrated.

I'm one of those overrating him

ariesbull:
abịa and ịmo is even producing small.. What about useless states like Delta, Bayelsa, Ondo, Edo that is producing higher oil....

You can see the quantum of stupidity there

Nwiboazubuike:
bro that place is hilly, there is a curve there and it causes accidents to vehicle because of the backwards gravitational movement, that flyover now is to help vehicles pass straight to avert that curve instead of going uphill not really for traffic that's why is the longest

LeoDeKing:
East still at the level of flyovers when other states are almost done with automation of transport system.

Anyway, Okezie Ikpeazu knows the east far better than I do and he has this to say:

Ebubu2:
You’ve said it all. I’m an Ebonyian and you’ve exactly described how he builds his projects. Moreover Ebonyi has enormous limestone so that material for labor is very cheap for him to access coupled with cheap laborers and cheap machinery. No foreign contractor to collect millions of dollars.

This was how china started till they revolutionalized their country, by doing all engineering works the local way.
