Governor Willie Obiano Has Revealed FG Owes Anambra State N25bn, by safeguide: 7:16am On Nov 01, 2015
Obiano made this revelation while inspecting the erosion sites along the Onitsha and Owerri Expressways on Saturday, October 31, 2015.
He reiterated that the Federal Government owed the state N25billion accruing from construction of federal roads in the state.

"This is the reason why we must get permission from the Federal Government before embarking on palliatives on the eroded site.
"It is very clear from the gravity of the erosion that the state alone cannot handle the project with its meagre resources because it will run into billions of naira’’, Obiano said.
Thus, the governor called on the Federal Government to save the Onitsha/Enugu Express Road and Onitsha/Owerri Expressway from imminent collapse due to erosion menace.
The Onitsha-Enugu road has caved-in at the foot of the fly-over at the new parts Nkpor, Idemili North Local Government Area of the state while erosion has cut-off one lane at two points at Okija-Ihiala axis of Onitsha-Owerri road.
Obiano said erosion posed danger to human lives and business activities in the area.
He said he had made contact with the Presidency after inspecting the site recently.
He said he had mandated IDC Construction Company to mobilise to site and start palliative works to save the road.
The governor, however, advised Anambra people to bear with the state while it persuades the Federal Government to come to its aid and save the people from danger posed by the bad roads

Obiano should have told us who owed the money instead of just saying federal govt.
However, state governors in Nigeria are the most docile people one can ever think of. Its either federal allocation or they are stranded. If our states don't do anything about IGR and fast too, we have a great danger ahead.

Crude oil prices fell and Nigeria is at a standstill. Our politicians have been busy playing politics over 16 years and the people still don't see reasons to hold those who messed up the nation responsible for their deeds.
I am beginning to feel that this nation doesn't politics because it has become too unproductive.

Anambra state is not asking for a bail out but rather they are pleading with the federal govt. to give them their due right.
.....but i will also suggest the state should also ask for a bail out,Since the APC govt at the top,has choosen to squander our common wealth,by giving bail out to his thieving governor friends without making them to account for the allocations given to them on monthly basis.
