Ben Kalu? I laugh in Obasanjo's tone.

Leave am make him come, make him try.

At the moment in Abia State, anybody contesting against Otti is on a long thing. Not because he is the best thing after agege bread but the odds will definitely be against you.

If I am a politician, I won't contest against a sitting Governor talk more of someone whom his people believes is delivering on his policies. Otti is deliberate and intentional - this is where his popularity seems from.

Ttipsy:
Aba in a come back lol

This is Ogborhill. The uncompleted building overlooking the bridge is the popular Enyimba Hotels which the current istration plans on turning to a resort. Converting the waterline and environ to a hub for luxury and recreation. Enumeration of property that already encroached into the Government acquired land has already begun.

Aba is alive now!

IGBOPROMISE1:
That pic is DMGS roundabout, Onitsha.

This is Aba. The righthand side of the road is a gas plant NIPPCO while the left hand side is Margaret Avenue GRA where Tonimas Headquaters is located, in-between the Avenue is Ecobank facing the road. If you head upwards, you will meet the railroad from Portharcourt while if you walk backwards, you will meet Abia poly now Dr Ogbonnaya Onu poly.

Boundaries are boundaries for a reason. Nothing justifies it being bend cos you have automatically create a lacuna.

A governor can not go anywhere without an advance team. It is the president we are talking of here. In a volatile area? Unless he meant, there was no glamour from political class which most often forms the entourage but if it means no advance knowledge of his arrival! That is not the protocol.

Real demon can't be recorded.

He was build and groom for the cause. He has a military wing under his control that works in synergy with security outfits in this country.
The jihadist aim from the "......." is now his assignment to achieve.
Expect subtle ethnic cleaning of the resistant bloodline under any of these guise - IPOB/apologist, boundary conflicts etc..all these are aimed to intimidate Christians in this region.

Doubt me? Ask what his men are doing in South-East under the guise of fighting unknown gunmen. Don't be bias and leave social media reports and how innocent youths are extrajudicial killed

In Jumia and Amazon they have cheap sense for people like you.

The guy you quoted can not afford Jumia and Amazon sense. Temu is for people like him.

Werey on the loose.

EmperorIsaac:
She will understand what "In character and in learning" means soon!

I think na only UNN get that motto.

Once you dey UNN, you go know say it is in character and in learning. Make she just forget graduation for UNN; if it was there she tried this, infact she can't! Them no born her well ni. As her mama na lecturer, na there dey akpo go sweet die.

Stories abound how the whole departmentl lectures gave a student F9 for 1st and 2nd semester exams. The F9 graduate reach faculty level. Though the guy later became lecturer in UNN, after him don calm down.

My set was told straightforward, "no first-class is coming out of this set" unto say, we sabi book but character far from us.

Then imagine when you come do this one...just follow Odim gate enter Ogbukpa dey go your Papa house.

Omo...Bobos can't wait for these transgenders ...they will vote for Trump again for this kind gesture

PS: But why is it only the male that transited to females scared?

There's something she knows about her husband that may have triggered her to be scared of birthing a loin that will continue in such life pattern. Demographically, religiously and socially analysis will make you understand her actions. A good detective should not be swayed by her actions but the intent of it; which emotionally is not justifiable cos she will definitely do the time. Engage the services of a good psychologist and use her to uncover a heavy crime happening in that vicinity and beyond.

She is a pointer to unravelling many ills her husband might be involved.

To those abusing her of opening her "smelly puxxie" to be f^rked...have you imagined that she might have been constantly abused by the husband ( you know how their religion view the freedom of women in marriage).

PS: Killing (not under the law) cannot be justify.

Wife of organ trafficker.

Welcome back.

If they don’t traffic coca*ne they will traffic babies

If they don’t traffick babies, they will traffic organs.

Cursed tribe of Africa .

Animals!!

I wonder the kind of life you live outside here. After spilling this bile, I became ashamed of you. Are you normal?

I hope Igbos kind gestures at any point turns to pains to you in this life because like you said they are "cursed tribe of Africa".

Why are the Obama's having more prominence in this inauguration than the Bidens? Is it a custom or evidence of the Obama influences across party lines?

Good radiance to a bad rubbish. Reno should have been picked since for instigating hatred towards Igbos.

ajailer:
Is this his own way of taking the country back to regional govt?

Jagaban na truly omo ogbon o.

In as much as I didn't vote Tinubu or any other candidate, what the president is doing is systematic regionalism. He is decentralising everything the North holds as bargaining chip. I believe by the time this istration finishes, any region that didn't see progress should hold their Governors ransom for not knowing the difference between politicking and leadership, not knowing how to bargain to get the right thing for their state above party lines; in this regard, I salute Alex Otti of Abia State

Skydivine:

Anambra basin or Anambra sea port?
Why is he short of using the word seaport?

It think is the strategic engagement of the State Governor might metamorphosis the basin to sea port. Take for instance, Abia State was offered Air strip, the Governor accepted it but went further to engage BAT and concessions were made. Today Abia is on the path of having an international Airport in Nsulu.

Charles Soludo should engage the presidency further if the state can shoulder parts of the responsibilities of having a sea port and turn the basin to it.

It think this thread should be voted as the most sane thread in Nairaland for the past 10 years. The demure and steeze too much jor. Only if Nairaland could be this civil in argument.

I have nothing to contribute but to enjoy the thread...

As a married man, even if I am making out with my wife and I notice that she is not there emotionally, I stop everything.

Once a woman is emotionally detached, give her space before you're accused of what will make you go gaga

Avoiding talking to her again on the matter. It shows insecurity which she will definitely explore in this marriage.

Don't engage the EX, it will be like El-Rufai and Reno (stooping so low).

What do you have to do? Keep your distance and plan your exit.

buckeyemedia:
It is this kind of low mentality that has caused the vast majority of citizens to still remain in the darkness of knowledge.

Poor people don’t understand the impact of economic sanctions on a nation, because poverty is all that they know.

Anyone that's quick to call someone poor, is truly poor.

Let me rephrase: Anyone who throws tantrums in a discourse is not just a child but an immature person in an adult body.

Sir, choose your words wisely while in public, others are reading to either shape their worldview or for citation.

I am a super lion...I am naturally ahead of you.

Some generalisation do run weird in my head. I have this female friend till date. Works at same establishment, goes home and dates together when we were singles. She comes to my house we play chess and other games yet till date nothing happened. Is she pretty? Yes!
Is she from a wealthy family? Yes! Even more than my family.
Was I a playboy? Unless you didn't enter my room.
Sometimes as married folks, she will ask me the question...Dude! How did I escape your room when we were singles? We just laugh it off.. it got to a point she christened my bed "altar of destruction".

Most times we hanged out as married folks na the hubby dey drop her for location. My wife knows her...both even got pregnant and birthed same period.

I think we need to outgrow some thinking pattern and behaviours. It is immaturity at play.

Unless you don't have value for humans, friendship and discipline. Our friendship started from our Dad to us then possibly our kids (now), you want me to loose that just for few minutes gratification? Funny enough, I was the one who approved her hubby and same to me...when I was dating one lady, she said that girl can't be my wife but the moment she saw my current, she said this is your wife. For pretty, my wife is even prettier than her.

Now you see why it is weird to me when people say, one can't have a male bestie. Learn to program your mind to be responsible and decent to a friend. Have limits to your philandering not every food one should eat.

My wife.

erico2k2:

So as we speak trust a domestic plane in Nigeria than Train?
Do you or have you taken into consideration that a train line will be far cheaper and serve everybody instead of those who are rich and can fly?
Let me even shock ,I dont fly in Nigeria I drive everywhere that I realy need to be when I visit.I drive from PH to Benin or Okada to the west, and I can drive to Aba and Onitsha to the east, I do that often.Im always on teh East west road when I land Nigeria

The security architecture of this country right now is not worth risking your life enroute Bush path all in the name of cheap rail transport, Sir. Like you stated both are needed and choices are to be made.

englishmart:
750 billion for a population of approximately 4.2 million people amounts to about N182k or $116 per head, if the money were to be shared.
$116 can't feed a 6-month-old child for one year. The budget is very poor.

In context. The US budget for 2023 was $6.7 trillion on a populationof 334 million. Each person gets at least $20k or or #34 million if it were to be shared.
That's what a budget looks like

You said US sir not New York City. This is Abia State, tiny among the dots. Criticism should it be linear or curved? Wait for Nigeria budget, then draw proper comparison.

Humbly submitted for your critical reasoning.

erico2k2:

How about establish Rail Lines instead, cos this wil be cheaper than an Airport.and it will benefit everyone

The system of Nigeria transport system is trajectory. Get what is been offered first that will aid development and then wait for supplement. When this project came, it was as an airstrip but the Governor knows what best suits residents of his state.

Rail transport system is not off the book but both does not serve same purpose and same class of people. Someone like me won't trust my life on a fast track than an airplane. Limitations also a bound in rail transportation as it is not easily connected within the federation.

Edygrin:


There's an airport in Anambra and Imo, an International Airport in Enugu, another one in Uyo, Akwa Ibom which are all neighboring states, why then does Abia state need an airport again if not that the government is looking for a way to loot.

Let me buttress the above observations from you and state why Abia needs it own Airport as follows;
1. Anambra Airport is more than 2hrs:00 mins drive from the closest boundary of Abia to its location while Owerri is more than 1hr:15mins drive from Umuahia (The state's capital not even Aba the economic hub of the state)

2. Enugu Airport and Akanu-Ibiam Airport are both more than 2hrs drive from Umuahia..

3. I am stating facts because I use them...

4. You asked why the State needs an Airport, right? Firstly I can tell you that more than 50% of OWR and UYO engers are from Abia state..we service these airports, raise internally generated revenue for them at their own credit (Don't forget the new tax bill may see the heavens soonest). Now if you are a business man, does this values lost on transit a better option to an Airport that will service you within 45 mins drive from any part of Abia?

5. Prior to the siting of the Airport, considerations where made regarding how the airport will serve the mega city (Aba which is business hub) and the service city (Umuahia the capital), bringing a bridge development that will aid in the creation of new city within the Mgbarakuma axis down to Umuikaa. This is to ensure that both cities are not choked with the rapid developments happening.

6. The Airport is more of a cargo Airport with the mindset of ensuring that ease of doing business is achievable in the state.

Abia needs the Airport for more numerous reasons because it will equally lead to job creation, enhance tourism and travels. Trust me with the recent happenings in Abia, the Airport is not an elephant project nor that which will be short of engers when finished. Only Aba residents down to the business areas in Ukwa will keep the airport busy.

The only problem here is OWR and Uyo will be greatly affected as more engers will use Abia airport but it is all about the citizens of the state, internally generated revenue and development.

PS: As it may be a cargo Airport some pioneer airports will be decongested.

This guy is really arrogant. Study his body language. The manner with which he dropped his speech note, his lips movement and gesture shows that he want this charades to end quickly so that he can truly make the uber driver disappear.

There's nothing Honourable about this human. Let him be recall.

Heard this guy is very wicked and had issues with travellers along Enugu express that yesterday. How can someone confidently hold motorist ransom for over two hours because you know your right and refused giving egunje? That same yesterday someone gave him a good slap while others threatened him. So it's no suprise that he will cough out all the illegal money he has been collecting to motorist.

Kill the guy and burn his corpse. Leave ni traces. With just 200k, you will get perfect job done.
