Your Sense of judgment is so biased and has been Clouded by the fact that ikpeazu is an ngwa Man... The simple fact there is that a puppet only works the directions of the puppeteer.. The PDP governorship candidate for abia is a puppet Selected by The incumbent governor to rob the treasury.. Better search for a better candidate not a poor man that might spend the first tenure settling his godfathers.. Argue with facts

I am born and brought up in aba. (nwa aba) and like we say, he who wears the shoe knows where it pains.

Since the era of PDP government in aba, a city that used to be the pride of the east has turned to a laughing stock for the whole federation. Aba is now synonymous with bad road. "are your roads as bad as aba's? " This pains me greatly because I know that aba used to have the best roads in the east as a whole. Azikiwe straight to faulks road then to aba owerri roads where model roads that had no patches. Built in the 80s yet lasted, even without maintenance into the 2000s.

I remember when Ariaria market was an international market. people used to come from Lagos, Kaduna, calabar , Ghana, Togo, Cameroon... all west Africa to buy goods from aba. Most companies had their major distributors in aba then.

Then the companies too. in the whole of the east, in terms of industries, after Enugu, you count aba. we had PZ, May baker, Nigerian breweries, Unilever (dad used to work there), aba textile company, vita foam, and many others too numerous to mention.
if you are really a nwa aba you would know that these things I'm saying is true.

Then the housing schemes were working. As long as you are a government worker, you are entitled to own a house if you want. You are given a free land to develop in the world bank estate. You can even borrow a loan to build your house from the mortgage bank. That is how my dad was able to build our home. I mean a poor man is entitled to a house.

We used to have free tap water in those days.

Now what have we seen since after PDP?

Bad roads everywhere you turn. its a fact that no single road in aba is up to standard. Na only wait and take road you see here.

The one that annoys me most is power. you see I live in the middle of two power plants. Geometrics and Alaoji. And I could tell you that since last month, ive not seen any power in my house.

Why the heck is geometries not in operation yet? A 450 million dollars project. Is wickedness Jonathan's nature or is he just a pure badluck?

I'm not an APC supporter but i m sick and tired of PDP and what they are doing to my beautiful city.

Ibusho:
IBO people will always disappoint me, when ur son whom I expect u to support and follow in d person or Rochas is in APC clamoring for change and working for the interest of ur people u are here saying u want to support GEJ. well am not surprise ur brains are IBO made. Even ur revered father mbaka tried to liberate to from the sharkels of shallow thinking all to no avail. I beg make una all park well for this election, third class citizens.

shachris03:


So true. Many of them inter-married with the Ngwa people of Aba. Most of them have come to live permanently in Ngwaland. But i still thing that their allegiance is more with their SS brothers than with us. When push turns to shove, do you think they can still stand with us against their own brothers?

Trigunz:


Mister..if the "push turns to shove" comes will you stand with the south south against your brothers?...pls let me know

Collynzo9:

Shodeinde Ibukun Paul if Igbos are third class citizens, what do you call Yoruba guys hawking poisonous agbo under hot sun all over the country?

shachris03:


no I won't.

shachris03:


Yoruba would never hand over to the north, unless they want to kiss goodbye to one Nigeria. udo.

Trigunz:


and then u want the SS to do the same..
guy life is reciprocal if can't do against ya brother don't expect dem to do it against theirs

maxwell530:
I don't think you stay in nigeria,where is obasonjo from when he hand over to yar adua,or is yar adua not from the north?better think before you speak.

9jaIhail:


And you think igbo an igbo person stand a chance to be elected president in the next 8yrs if APC win? This is where most of you lacked rational and comprehensive thinking..
Igbo does not have much stake in APC. There will never be a time APC will present an igbo man as their presidential flag bearer after buhari that is if he buhari win. After GMB yorubas will surely take it up from the North and if you are a good mathematician you will know how many years it will take for an igbo man to be presented by APC as their flag bearer. But i am not here to assure you that PDP will offer the chance to eastern Nigeria after GEJ rather i want you to remember that GEJ has only 4 yrs tenure to serve and he will hand over. I am sure of an igbo person becoming president or VP after GEJ. Igbo chances as it stands right now is more promising under PDP than APC.

fuckluv:
What majority of the igbos don't understand is that, jonathan is already using their slot by proxy. With their constant "our brother" and his adoption of the name "Ebele and Azikiwe" syndrome. Even the ijaws didn't lay claims to him much as the igbos.it is glaring that igbos will not smell the presidency seat for a long time to come should Gej be re- elected.

9jaIhail:
I might have gone a bit tribal in my submission above but mind you, Nigeria politics is all about tribal/regional interest and it's a high time we igbos think more about igbo interest rather than nationalist.

9jaIhail:


I was reading and was enjoying your writeup until i detected Buharism in you. Listen young man/woman, I am not an Aba brought up but as a confirm nwa afo, every little investment i own today are in aba and owerri. We all feels the pains but do not blame GEJ for the bad leadership in abia because we have a Governor who have served nearly 8yrs in office without achieving anything. It doesn't make sense when you allow your frustration to blind your sense of reasoning. A sensible igbo person will never prefer GMB ahead of GEJ. Igbo people that are supporting GMB are either for their personal gain or party interest. Inasmuch as GEJ failed igbos and other Nigerians in so many areas, i can assure you that igbo interest cannot be better serve under GMB than GEJ. Can we be reasonable enough and not use our hands and fetch an infested fire wood and you know what the consequences will be.

How do we forgot things so easily. Sometimes i feel like to ask, are igbos the most silly and confused creature in the whole universe. How suddenly did we forget our past experiences? How we have been treated by the past presidents and military head of states in Nigeria GMB inclusive until GEJ came on board. Even here in NL, you as an igbo person hardly exchange argument with other tribes without the person calling you a third class citizen. Today, if not for anything GEJ in one way or the other gave igbos some sense of belonging.
My take on Abia state is, we should vote out PDP in Abia and vote massively for GEJ despite hes shortcomings.




U said it all

shachris03:


understand the contest brother. what i meant is this, if buhari wins and goes for 8 years, he is likely to hand over to a Yoruba who would go for another 8 years. and In the spirit of fairness, the yorubas should then hand over to the ibos so that it can go round. its not fair if they hand it back to the north that gave it to them.

shachris03:


I pray too. I believe we are too enlightened to support a candidate based on blind sentiments.
