God bless u. I laugh when I see all media propaganda exalting that governor. No body builds a new house here unless you are of his dynasty.

Are you serious? So these new structures I see springing up everywhere are linked to his people? As an occasional visitor to Abakaliki, I would have sworn that the governor is well loved by everyone because he is working.

The tax levied on the state residents has been huge, disproportionate and wicked. Before he was advised to temporarily halt the taxation, many small scale businesses had left the state. You can imagine where indomie noodles fast food sellers, roasted yam/plantain sellers, women selling fairly-used clothes and other peasant and struggling businesses were levied between NGN14,800 - NGN120,000 per year, and you have to pay in arrears of 3 years. Dave Umahi has so many negative sides, especially his quick temper, selfishness and above all, his lust and love for money. It's terrible! He has done well in the area of infrastructure alone, that is roads/flyover bridges. I don't know where else he has done well. He sold the state vehicle inspection office (VIO) to his illiterate uncle and they have bn chasing motorists around in the state, to the extend of pulling a truck down which killed a passerby. Umuoghara Quarry site stopped functioning after his nephew who has no crusher took over the entire Quarry site as overseer. The stop directive announced on taxation Is just to enable him secure another term after which, Ebonyians will see hell. What could one say of a man who built over 20 duplexes in his father's compound, annexing nearby homes, few months in office? A compound that had only two (2) mud houses plastered with cement.

Interesting. I need to engage you guys physically to discuss and learn more about these eye opening perspectives. I used to think the whole state was in love with the governor. Maybe cos I don't know the grassroots in the state as a visitor.

An average Nigerian wants everything free, no taxation and yet they want to be enjoying American easy life forgetting that in U S death is sure but paying your tax is surer than death .

In Ebonyi state, petty traders are taxed. Pure water hawkers are taxed. Very small scale businesses are closed down because of tax. Lately, most shops open only on Sunday when the tax force don't work. But then, We have our PVC, I can't just rant alone without my PVC.
But some of your people said they will vote for him because he has built flyover in abakaliki and empowered them with keke napep to navigate the flyover.

The Governor can build any form of structure he wants, after all, the company handling all the contracts is still his own. He's an Engineer, So all the money still flows back to his account. That's why he's springing up needless flyovers everywhere.

Rubbish!!

Devil umahi is a complete beast and worst than Fulani herdsmen. Ebonyians are dying in silence. If you doubt engage any of them in private and they would open up.
People are only scared to talk because in every street and beer parlour, he has his thugs who can break your head or even kill you if you speak ilk of the devil.

Our PVC is our only hope

This is just a deliberate attempt to discredit gov.U MAHI. I am an Ebonyian, live in Abakaliki and do my businesses here too. No such taxes. This group, I am sure, is used by opposition. If he returns in 2019 or leaves is none of my business. The truth is that U mahi is the best thing that happened to my state since its creation.
Re: Residents Slam Governor Umahi For Unfair Taxation by Asiri1991: 2:35pm On Sep 07, 2018
Can you tell us the exact location of your business please? I am a trader at 94 Gunning Road, Abakaliki. I sell electronics and electrical appliances. I have never been surcharged.
