Extreme poverty in India has dropped to negligible levels. This is a wonderful achievement. It is even more impressive because the country managed it without an industrial miracle. We explain how https://t.co/evZqxo2xeF

Africa's Business Leaders are taking ownership of their continent's development in a manner that is pragmatic, demonstrates capacity for scale and captures value for long-term interests and the policy and market environment should support this momentum and not kill the progress

Let me take this moment to congratulate Geometric Power as it plans to commission its Aba power station. The tenacity the team led by Prof Barth Nnaji has demonstrated is legendary. I also commend His Excellency, Dr Alex Otti, the executive governor of Abia State, for his focused intervention, with a mindset of whatever it will take to get this power plant operating within a year of inauguration.

To the members of Abia State Government Transition Council, I also commend everyone of you, because during all the meetings and strategy sessions, everyone zeroed on this: Geometric Power must begin operations within 9 months of inauguration. Men and women posited that for Greater Aba Development Authority (GADA), as proposed by the Council, to be meaningful, Geometric Power must be working. By the action of Mr. Governor, GADA is now the law of the land, and the Authority is tasked with overseeing the development of Aba, the Enyimba City.

The British established a military post in Aba, Nigeria in 1901 and In 1915, a railroad was built to connect Aba to Port Harcourt, to move agricultural goods like palm oil and palm kernels. By the 1920s, Aba had assumed a position as one of the most important cities in Nigeria, post the Lord Lugard amalgamation. But Aba, after the Biafra War, began to fade, due to structural negligence.

Good People, I am excited that Aba is BACK, and Nigeria will be back stronger and bolder, because when Aba thrived, Nigeria rose to the mountaintop.

Let me also use this moment to say that Abia needs more new cities. Yes, we have opportunities to build new cities. If your firm specializes in such, please connect. The Government of Alex Otti will provide any support you will need. We want to have mini-Abas, modern cities of innovation, across Abia. Reach out to me and I will connect you to our special assistants, commissioners, and if the vision is big, to Mr. Governor directly. In Abia, we like investors; no person will give you troubles. #InvestInAbia

Ms. Greatness was a great lady, mentee & professional colleague.
She was pushed out of a moving vehicle by criminals in Abuja.
She was taken to Maitama General Hospital.
The hospital didn't attend to her. She died.

🌱 According to the Federal Ministry of Environment, Nigeria generates over 32 million tonnes of waste annually, but only 20-30% of it is properly collected. Shocking, right? 🤯

The rest ends up clogging our drainages and polluting our oceans, causing harm to water bodies.
