FreeStuffsNG: On whether the community will reverse its decision if the right persons from the community are met by the Abia State government concerning the airport project, Echezolam reiterated that there will be no compromise.
Abia State Government should please respect the wishes of these people. There may be other communities that may be interested in having the proposed airport located on their own ancestral lands.
May God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!
The government of Abia will proceed with airport project no turning back.
There is always resistance whenever land is involved in Igboland but the community will later come on board.
I am honestly amazed how beautiful and well organized and developed Ivory Coast is.
Take a look on what these guys did with Cocoa money I do not know exactly what Nigeria did with our oil money.
Then Ohaneze should refute the guy statement if he is not the authentic spokesperson for them.
he leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo cultural organisation, has drawn the attention of the general public to one[b] Okechukwu Isiguzoro, who claims to be factional secretary of the organisation.[/b]
Ohanaeze, through a statement by the national publicity secretary, Dr. Alex Ogbonnia, Sunday, called on the general public to discountenance Isiguzoro who they described as “a usurper, impostor and an interloper.”
The statement said anybody who knows Isiguzoro’s whereabouts should report to the relevant authorities because in spite of several warnings and a subsisting court case, he is still parading himself as the secretary general of Ohanaeze Ndigbo worldwide.
The statement reads: “The general public is hereby notified that one Mr. Okechukwu Isiguzoro, who has been parading himself as the secretary-general of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, is not and has never been the secretary-general of Ohanaeze Ndigbo. He is both a usurper and an impostor, an interloper who has no authority or mandate to act or speak on behalf of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.
“It will be recal that on January 11th 2021, the General Assembly of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide convened at the Dan Anyiam Stadium, Owerri and overwhelmingly elected Ambassador Okey Emuchay, MFR as the secretary general of the apex Igbo socio-cultural organization.
“It is regrettable and also embarrassing that shortly after the Ohanaeze election, Messrs Chidi Ibeh and Okechukwu Isiguzoro, who never participated in the election declared themselves as president-general and secretary-general respectively.”
Think about it, most Igbo leaders I know have not yet antagonized the bill. Same as SW, SS, & NC.
Infact, Dogara was all out in of the reform today in that Channels townhall.
The thing here is that, the Northern leaders are also divided in this. Some are pro and some are anti.
The point is that Isiguzoro who issued that statement does not represent authentic Ohanaeze ndi Igbo personally I do not have issue with the proposed tax reform bill.
If Tinubu is bad, don't you think it will be madness to replace him with someone of his type? Shouldn't we have a change of mindset? Why should it be the same if the same every time?
I am not advocating for Atiku presidency.My point is you can't be a Tinubu er and castigate Atiku due to his age,Tinubu is older than Atiku forget his forged and falsified age and identity..
0koro, you can search for it here using the search button . Type "vat distribution to states".
I am not your errand boy.
By the way, the reason I am hammering on your yeast is so you idiots can finally realize that Nigeria has been feeding you .
Without Nigeria and Nigerians Lagos is nothing if you think you are self sufficient why not go for separation since you have political power to do so and eat all the VAT money coming from Lagos alone?
I told you that your yeast is the least productive and number 1 federal government pikin and all you can think of is trying to measure your clit you call prik with the Yorubas.
Ha!
Let satistics speak for itself.Why is that so hard?
Give us the complete satistics.
Why is it that you guys talk with so much audacity as if you're a custodian of secret information that stands as the greatest truth. How do you think Russia can stand NATO? That the USA and allies are not ready for any major war because of the catastrophic consequences doesn't mean they are weak and cowards. They knew Putin is mad, and are trying to wear him out gradually. Putin is exactly like the way Adolf Hitler was, before he was conquered. History shows that men like Putin end disgracefully.
One thing that's certain is that, he will certainly fall. His end is coming gradually. Ukraine ing NATO is not negotiable if that's what you don't want to hear.
That was the plans of the West to wear Russia out and defeat them but unfortunate the west is worn out already and Russia is still standing and very soon Ukraine will have no option than to surrender.Russian military industrial complex is out producing all the NATO combined in weapon production and secondly Ukraine now lacks foot soldiers to continue the war that is why they are falling back in all fronts.Russia is not Iraq,Libya,Somalia,Syria or even Afghanistan.
It's this foolishness that is fueling ineptitude in that your barren yeast that has added terrorism to its basket case of troubles.
If your governors had to rely on their own tax base to run their states , do you think they will not do everything to keep the peace and attract investors ?
Take Zamfara that has proven gold reserves that for some reason successive governors are not willing to attract investors to come and mine it. Instead the governors have been accused of aiding bandits and illegal miners to mine the gold . This has led to Zamfara being one of the most terrorised states in the country. The governors don't care because at the end of the day , Tax from the productive south will come in the end of the month for them to further loot.
Same thing your own governor in Imo is doing as you go about terrorising yourselves down there. Your terrorism has no bearing on state finances as long as it keeps flowing from Abuja .
So if you like continue. Your crooked governors are there for their pocket and pockets only.
If they had to rely on their own tax base do you think your Biafra nonesense or all those rag tag terrorist groups up north won't disappear ?
Forget whataboutism I need facts about sadwaste states lets compare if Imo state is the only state benifiting from VAT sharing formular.
I referenced your Imo and yeast because they get far more than they contribute by a wide margin even compared to what the north contributes and receives.
Your governors and legislators are all silent because if they make noise it will expose your yeast as the least productive and contributive region and the biggest welfare queens in the polity.
I am sure sadwaste states except of Lagos and Ogun are not doing any better I challenge you to post their imput here.
They are contributing far more than any of your yeast states but getting far less.
Oyo is up there in the top 3 tax generating states after Lagos and Rivers.
There's a thread here on NL that broke down the tax generating states and how much they got back from the FG.
The yeast remains the least contributing zone in the federation but has the highest return from federal allocations ranging from 800 to 1,000% among the five states.
I need detail analysis of those states as the case of Imo state.Thank you.
But what I know which is what I have been posting here for years, is that you in the SE are the greatest existential threat to the south.
Come clean and tell us that the bill will make you parasites more poorer .
A situation where Imo contributes only #325million as VAT but gets over #34bn as its share through the current sharing formula will of course be staunchly protected by you in the SE.
At least , northerners are not ashamed to cry that the parasitic sharing formula if ended will leave them bankrupt.
0koro like you are all jumping around the issue without coming out straight to defend your parasitic life line.
How much is Oyo,Ondo,Ekiti and Osun state contributing and how much are getting in return?
Skooltynz:
Zelensky has finally agreed that he is willing to let go of Eastern Ukraine territory on the condition that Russia allows it to NATO, if the reach a agreement with putin then a new nation will be born in Europe but I doubt if Russia will allow western Ukraine to NATO
I know NATO cannot liberate Eastern Ukraine Russia is too strong.
Ukraine ing NATO is a dream that will never happen it is because of that Russia İS fighting war to stop them from ing NATO.
