TheGoodJoe:


Understand which position? Tell me in one sentence what your point is? Is it not Amaechi stopped the building of a University in the Niger Delta?

It is mere Propaganda. Amaechi said we can achieve the same aim with the Institution in Oron? Oron is in the Niger Delta. Improving it to achieve the same aim of a University is nothing short of Genius.

It will save the country and the Transport Ministry Billions of Naira, achieving the same aim. If you are not biased and Partisan, you should applaud the Brilliant move.

SkyBlue1:


I will ignore your first few questions because I think that deserves a whole other discussion, in saner climes universities generate their own money through research and other means and invest it in building up capacity and improving themselves as insitutions. I will also ignore your last question because it shows you miss the point that was being made.

Now to the crux of position on this particular issue:

Your question should be why the Minister of Transportation thinks a specialist maritime university is not needed in Delta State, not nonsense about Niger Deltan scoring own goal which IRONICALLY stokes more of the uneccesary dischord you claim his actions will. At the end of the day each ministry has a budget to spend and that means prioritising what needs to be done. I am not against Maritime University if we had unlimited funds but are we saying we can't upgrade one of our already decrepit universities with the required facilities to deliver what this proposed project will?

Standing5:
State is not suppose to offer things directly, persons are suppose to. So what does the average Warri person offer the presense of a govt owned institution?

TonyeBarcanista:

I won't be hypocritical here. Every relationship has to do with interests of the people involved. The reason why the constitution demands 36 ministers(minimum) each per state is because those ministers though servants of Nigeria, they sit in the cabinet to represent the INTeREST of their states. It has nothing to do wt tribalism.

@your first, contract was awarded by the last administration.

I HAVE BEEN GOING THRU UR COMMENTS IN PREVIOUS THREAD THAT HAS TO DO WITH AREWA COMMENDING AMEACHI FOR CANCELLING NMU WITHOUT REPLYING U. NOW U'VE STARTED AGAIN. UR TYPE IS THE REASON SOME NIGERIANS KEEP SUFFERING.

CANCELLING NMU IS THE GREATEST DISSERVICE ANYONE CAN DO TO ASPIRING SEAFERERS IN THIS COUNTRY. SOME OF US TRIED SEVERAL YEARS TO BE ADMITTED INTO MAN, ORON, BUT COULDN'T DUE TO LIMITED SPACE AVAILABLE PER DEPT PER YEAR. MAN, ORON, DOES NOT ADMIT UPTO 100 CADETS(STUDENTS) PER DEPT IN EACH YEAR ESP MARINE ENGINEERING AND NAUTICAL SCIENCE DEPTS . BUT MORE THAN 5000 PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS APPLY FOR ADMISSION IN EACH OF THOSE DEPARTMENT YEARLY. THIS NUMBER IS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE OF ELECTRICAL, MARITIME BUSINESS STUDIES DEPTS. IF THEY CAN ONLY ADMIT MAXIMUM 100 PER DEPT, WHERE DO U THINK OTHERS WILL GO?

SOME OF US HAD TO GO THRU MUCH PAIN SEEKING MARITIME EDUCATION ELSEWHERE. MY FRIENDS WHOSE PARENTS ARE RICH ARE NOW STUDYING IN GHANA, EGYPT, INDIA, MALASIA, PHILIPPINES, ETC, AND PAY HUGE SCHOOL FEES IN US DOLLARS. MIND U, SOME OF THIS COUNTRIES HAVE LESS MARITIME BOUNDARIES THAN NIGERIA. DUE TO LIMITED SPACE, TO GAIN ADMISSION INTO MAN, ORON, U NEED TO KNOW A BIG POLITICIAN IN ABUJA.

THOSE OF U SUPPORTING THIS CANCELLATION NEED TO UNDERGO BRAIN SURGERY.

BTW, I AM FROM ORON

hey you, have you coe t=with this your saving scarce resources bullshit? I asked you before if you're not aware how much has been kept to waste in the desert of the north in search of oil? Be careful you this bold lettered writer.

TheGoodJoe:


Do you think Nigeria is in the position of running such a project now? Crude is at $27 a barrel. For now the project can go on. Upgrading the one at Oron is the best thing to do now we are trying to get out of a financial mess. When the institution at Oron is upgraded, there won't be limited spaces available. It will be completed in less time.

Rose2014:

Look who is here!!! I was just thinking about u

id911:



IT IS NOW I FULLY UNDERSTAND THAT MOST OF U COMMENT ON NAIRALAND PURELY ON IGNORANCE.

UPGRADING MAN, ORON, WON'T INCREASE ADMISSION QUOTA. IT WILL ONLY INCREASE THE NUMBER OF COURSES OFFERED THERE WHICH THEY CANNOT INTRODUCE DUE TO ITS PRESENT STATUS. IT WILL ALSO ALLOWS THEM AWARD DEGREES. THAT'S ALL.

MARITIME EDUCATION WORLDWIDE IS REGULATED BY IMO AND IS NOT UR CONVENTIONAL EDUCATION. IN FACT THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO ADMIT UPTO 50 CADETS IN EACH OF MARINE ENGINEERING AND NAUTICAL DEPTS. IF IMO BECOMES AWARE OF THIS ADMISSION SURPLUS, THEY MIGHT BE SANCTIONED.

PLS AND PLS, STOP MENTIONING OIL HERE WITH RESPECT TO THE PROJECT. THOSE IN THE INDUSTRY WILL LAUGH AT UR IGNORANCE. FUNDING MARITME EDUCATION IN NIGERIA IS THE DUTY OF NIMASA. CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OF WHAT NIMASA MAKES YEARLY GOES TO SUCH PROJECT AND IT IS BY LAW. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH OIL PRICE BROTHER.

SO NEXT TIME, COMMENT ONLY ON WHAT YOU HAVE AN IDEA OF

Oh really? That means I must be special then.

Just manage A trailer load of kisses

TheGoodJoe:


I guess the Federal Government is after the NIMASA bosses for spending their money. Or are you saying the funding of the NIMASA does not come from Nigeria. Or what.

I do not get your point. Amaechi said he wants to achieve the same aim of the University proposal with the Oron Institution.

Simple, achieve the same aim of the University with the Oron Institution.

I should stop mentioning Oil here because of what? Our revenue comes from fishes and NIMASA does not get money from the National Budget.

TheGoodJoe:

[color=#000099]
From where did you get the idea Amaechi is talking only about admission quota?[/cololr]

id911:


GUY, SORY TO SAY THIS. U GO SCHOOL AT ALL? WHICH AIM U WANT ACHIEVE WIT ALL D EXPLANATION WHERE I GIVE WIT ONLY MAN, ORON? U MEAN SAY U NO READ ALL D THINGS WHER I WRITE UP THERE?

AGAIN TALKING ABOUT OIL AND BUDGET, SO U NO NO SAY FAAN, NCAA, FIRS, NIMASA AND D LIKE ARE REVENUE GENERATING AGENCIES? Y U THINK SAY SOME PEOPLE WANT WORK FOR SOME GOVT PARASTATALS N DISLIKE OTHERS? Y ARE SOME PARASTATALS PAYING THEIR WORKERS HIGHER SALARIES THAN OTHERS?

ALL D SHIPS WERE DEY NAIJA WATER, WHO REGULATE THEIR ACTIVITIES AND WHO COLLECT MONEY FROM DEM? NO BE NIMASA? DO U KNOW HOW MANY BILLIONS NIMASA MAKES YEARLY? IS THAT FROM OIL?

NA THE LAST TIME I GO QUOTE U BE THIS. GUDBYE

id911:


Chai! Some people sha. Me mentioned Ameachi n admission quota?

I dey tell u say if dem upgrade MAN, ORON, it's only that more COURSES will be introduced and they'll now be classified a DEGREE awarding institution. Courses like Maritime law, Maritime Insurance, etc, dem go introduce to add to the ones wher dem dey offer there now and they will also award degrees but dem no go increase numbers of students being admitted to each dept.

Abi, Ameachi na IMO to oder dem to increase admission quota. U think say Maritime Education na ur normal higher education. U think say d school dey under Ministry of Education.

Abeg shift

I receive it all. No crumbs for anyone.

How are you swthrt?

Amaechi missed it in this one but the structures are unbelievably ugly.

I am waiting for you. Explain your position in one line. Mr GEJ's mouthpiece.

BiafranAvatar:




For how long will you realize that Niger Delta is not a tribe and for that does not represent any



You're only typing this poo cus you think Ijaws are been short changed by An Ikwerre/Igbo man... In as much as I'd like Amaechi to be politically annihilated, I'd commend him for something, GIVING THE PAINS YOU'VE BEEN WISHING ON IGBOS...



Karma you know nowadays doesn't wait long to strike back...

TheGoodJoe:


Amaechi is running his ministry and he has a lot to do with limited funds. People can overlook projects that are seen as lasted but someone like Amaechi who we know carried out a lot of work as a Governor has plans and things to do with money.

He has said he will achieve the same aim with Oron. Let us wait and see what he will do with the money he will save.

He already talked about also upgrading the institution in Zaria to a University. That is killing two birds with one stone and there will still be leftover from the money.

How someone can tag this a wrong decision baffles me.

greatiyk4u:
Hmmmmm..............I think the best action would have been to suspend the project and ensure due process is followed before continuing to ensure a sustainability as a result of all the shady deals exposed recently associated with the project.

dollyjoy:
What is the point of building a new one when the existing ones are substandard?whatever happens to upgrading the existing ones?
