The most unhealthy thing a man over 40 can do is to drink every evening. If you need to drink, do it occasionally (max 2x a week). Or drink in the morning/day time, it is healthier than at night.
Yesterday, we were pleased to receive a delegation of investors led by Dr. Oko Jaja, alongside Mr. Dennis Madu Nwakanma, CEO of MD Nwakanma Nigeria Limited. Dr. Jaja briefed me on the significant progress made towards the establishment of a $145 million solar manufacturing plant at Umuelele, Isiala Ngwa South LGA, in partnership with their Chinese counterparts.
I am delighted that the project has reached the Final Investment Decision stage. This is a resounding vote of confidence in the improving business environment we are building in Abia State. It further validates our vision of making our State a preferred destination for local and international investment.
We remain committed to providing every support necessary to ensure businesses thrive and investments are protected. We have done everything required to make the land available for the project, and we stand ready to provide every necessary support to ensure its successful implementation.
Beyond the investment itself, the project promises jobs for our young people, skills development, increased economic activity, and greater prosperity for our State.
I commend Dr. Jaja, the investors, and MD Nwakanma Nigeria Limited for their confidence in Abia. I am particularly encouraged that the first tranche of funding is expected by September 2026, with factory construction projected to commence before the end of the same month.
I am also pleased that young Abians are already being trained in solar installation and related technologies, with plans for selected workers to receive advanced training in China once operations begin.
Educare received this special recognition from the International STEM Olympiad, Rome.
We will continue to build the right technology that powers education and also support our children to shine on global stages.
@FarmwellOFCL Selective breeding and proper fertilizer do wonders. Not every large or shiny crop is GMO. We need to start having supermarkets for just farm produce produced in Nigeria.
@austex63@creation247 Imagine defending a measurement system where 12" make a foot, 3 feet make a yard, and 5,280 feet make a mile, just because you're afraid of multiplying by 10. The rest of the world is living in the 21st century. You're still measuring things based on a medieval king's left thumb.
Germany earns 2.2 trillion euro annually. Half of it is paid back to people (welfare, children, pensions, etc). Basically, the German government is a massive money redistribution engine, taking money from tax payers and giving to people. A socialist system.
@ToheebAyomide2 The insusance company might not be profitable. There will be a lot of false claims. There will be a lot of illness cases that will drain the insurance purse.
@asemota Nigeria can only get better if the system of government changes. It has to be structured in such a way that decisions have to be truly made by the people.
