Cherez: Im not saying it is impossible for Mbaise people....thats my new gehfren people....to donate money to town development. In fact it should be applauded. Im proud of my in-laws for coming together to uplift their community. What im saying is, this record has no authenticity or certification to the credit given to it. This could be a contribution to the Igwe's mansion. It could be a contribution to buy land for church. It could be a contribution to dredge river niger....it is a contribution for thousands of likely causes. How do we certify that this contribution is for airport? This is my contention. Are you in Mbaise? Kindly tell my inlaws I will be travelling soon to see them. Cc Adaibeku Imhotep Ibo Amaka! 1 Like 1 Share |

Cherez: Prove that this fund raising is for the airport, and not for purchase of land and cement to build a palace for the Igwe. Show me... |

gwafaeziokwu: Gwafa, I dont care how long you have lived amongst civilized people in Yorubaland this ya village life and mentality cannot be cured. Shey, na my Yoruba people you dey talk this thrash to? . Orisirisi! Where I come from, the great Yoruba people, founders of civilizations and world orders, creators of Empires and Kingdoms.....it is abomination for government to pass its sovereign duty and financial burden to its citizens. When the citizens have to fund a big budget project like an airport the government is no longer solvent. Its budgets are meaningless and it has lost credibility and jurisdiction, it should be dissolved. A state governor in any Yoruba state will not dare ask people to contribute money to build road...much more an airfield, not to come talk of an airport! If Yoruba community ever thought of need to improve state budgets they will not donate money. Instead they will approach the government to raise tax. Cover your face in shame for coming out in public to support this act of shame in Imo. It is a discredit that people will contribute money to build airport in 1983 Nigeria when oil money was flowing yanfu yanfu. You are backward over there. You have a huge deficit in your assessment of your govt and their contract and responsibility to citizens. They exploit your lack of knowledge and pump you up with false ego....the Igbo spirit! Igbo spirit that is not aware that it is uncivil for citizens to donate money and fund govt budget. No make me talk and loose my new gehfren in Mbaise o. |

Cherez: I presented multiple facts and supporting documents that counter the thread's position. First, I gave authentic status of the airport from FAAN records. Here I give you article on who built the airport and commissioned it and the year it was built. I maintain that the contributions posted in this thread was not for the purpose it is claimed. Could it be that this contribution was one of the popular village efforts back in the 80s to fund spare parts business for apprentices relocating to Lagos for new markets? We know in the late 70s and into 80s many Ibo people did crowd funding for new opportunities in Lagos markets. They sponsored boys from villages to apprentice in Lagos and Kano and expand spare parts business. Isnt this document an evidence of that....rather than some bullshyyte about an airport? As it stands, authentic materials show the airport was built by state.

GavelSlam:Bros be humble to accept what you don't know N2k wasn't a crazy Biggie those days Let's quantify it; N2k then was equivalent to maybe $2.6k. Let's say due to inflation the value of the money currently is now $5k Are you saying an some Nigerians don't have N5m? Bros, every single Nigerian leaving this country for studies abroad and not on scholarship pays hugely upto N4MILLION |

MetaPhysical:GOD!!!! Bros I thought you were cerebral enough Now I understand the main reason Nigeria is so backward; even intelligent people loose this property at the touch of tribalism. Yes the airport was built by the state govt (who else would the donation go to? LGA, traditional rulers?) with donations from individuals See the reference I have you The donation was made public so this ain't news as people massively donated then. The OP even opined so that the records were done by the state commissioner of finance then Mr. Idika You don't have to go far; In some locations in Lagos you'll see Town Union buildings built solely in donation from a single village. My village has town unions in every major city in the SE & in Lagos and in each of these locations, they have a 1/2-storey building on a 2plot land built by the union 2 Likes |

Some years back I was cleaning my late mother's belongs and I saw the community contributions card, inside the card was airport building project contribution paid by my mom on behalf of our family. This contributions were collected by the various community town union and further remitted to the state government airport building project. This was during the military, if it was now the thieving politicians would have looted the fund. This should be during Ike Nwachukwu military governorship era. 1 Like |

This information is supposed to be classified.... Seriously, am tired of our obsession with praises from other people.... This information is supposed to be for the personal consumption of the Igbo tribe why bring our sacrosanct information for the public to spit on...where is our dignity as a people,where is our secret, where is our pride. Some one in a hurry to get likes published such high level information....Am highly dissappointed. |
