ecoli: you know nothing about Akpabio. Only meaningful project are road and airport, the others done by Akpabio are useless and substandard. There is no company functioning optimally in akwa ibom, 60% of akwa ibomites are jobless.

This is what i've been trying to tell them but they don't listen. They keep believing in the delusion that Obi is the best thing since fried rice. They keep naming the fact that he has connected all the rural areas with roads and i find that laughable because a state like Anambra should be thinking farther than donating sowing machine to women. This is the reason i keep clamoring for Soludo because when i saw his manifesto in 2010, i was convinced that the man knows the potentials of Anambra and knows how to tap into these potentials. We have our eyes at Onitsha and Nnewi to be counted among the new emerging cities with huge industries to show for it. We want Anambra to take it's place as the most urbanized territories in Africa and the world. Is that too much to ask?
as a man wit potential, lets assume u wil succeed obi in 2014, wat wil u do 2 make anambra compete wit other african cities?

Next time when making analysis like this, base it on the south strictly, that way, it would be more understandable. Nairalanders constantly make the mistake of relegating the north whenever they post stuff like this and i ask why? If you dont travel, simply leave stuff like this for travellers. Northern governors like jonah jang are doing great based on the nigeria standard at least


Abegi!!!

There's nothing happening in the north and you know it. In Kano, Kwankwaso is busy arranging marriages for widows under Islamic Law and wrangling with transport companies over land. Kaduna has stagnated ever since Ahmed Makarfi stepped down. There's nothing going on in Kebbi. The kind of development you want us to celebrate Jonah Jang for is the type that loses you an election as a governor in other climes. The old man is busy and neck-deep into the tribal wrangling in his state. Niger State has never had it so bad and the loud-mouthed and unprincipled governor there has to be one of the worst state governors around.

At any rate, no one really cares about what goes on in the north tbh. Keep the agricultural produce coming and we be cool. cool

The issue is that none of those things has been noticed by any outsider that visits Anambra State. Obi's roads are known as NDDC roads and that is why nobody will show the pictures. Here are some of the roads. He is said to have done only 600km of narrow single lane roads with few having open drainage, no streetlights and no walkways.

Don't bother yourself with that clown. He is suffering from complex over non performance of roches even after heaping so much debt on the poor people of imo state with nothing on the ground to show for it.
Abagworo fyi: Imo state remains a rural state when compared to Anambra state. Till today 1/3 of imo state population are living and earning a living in Anambra. It is a known fact that there is no single Anambran living in imo state nor anywhere near it. This simple analysis will show where there is development. Today over 1/3 of young imo graduates are working in Anambra courtesy of Obi industrialization drive. While roches is busy painting roads built by Mbakwe 20yrs ago. Borrowing heavily to enrich tinubu and his hausa cousins to the detriment of gullible imo people like this clown called abagworo.

Obi' achievement will take Roches 28yrs to reach. That is a bitter pill you have to take.

Abagworo:

Maybe on individual basis "yes" but with reservations. More than half of Anambra live outside their State. In fact they are the most displaced Igbos followed by my own Imo(Mainly the Orlu area). However standard of living is much higher in Imo.

Like I said earlier I've withdrawn my criticism of Obi because I recently discovered that Anambra and most Nigerian States do not have the resources. I was erroneously comparing him with Rivers, Akwa-Ibom and Lagos who are earning 5 times more than other States and having same level of responsibility. Truth be told the quality of roads done by Obi are poor but still good. He has managed his little resources better than Akpabio. Imagine if he gets 16 to 20billion a month like Akpabio.

You are making personal assumptions based totally on sentiments and not reality. The pictures are from Lilu and Awka-Etiti for the free minded ones. FYI there are far more Imolites in Abia and Rivers than any other states. Maybe few Orlu drug dealers at Head bridge is giving you a false feeling. Meanwhile majority of Igbos outside Igboland are from Anambra and that does not make Anambrians poor or undeveloped.

What I keep saying is that Peter Obi failed woefully. Theodore Orji also did exactly the same type of roads as Obi and attracted more industries and investments than Obi but both of them made no impact on the physical development of their States.

You are right because one cannot compare 30billion with 3billion. That's impossible. Most States have recurrent expenditure of over 1.5billion with Akwa-Ibom inclusive. Anambra has only 1.5billion to work with while Akwa-Ibom has 28.5billion.

If T.A. Orji is given 30billion monthly, he'll be the best Governor.

It is on record that Anambra has more road infrastructure that touched entire community, making the state a one-city state due attendant rapid urbanization. On the othe hand Anambra has attracted more investment than all the SE put together.

It is on record that imo state population in Anambra state ranks 3rd after Rivers and lagos. It is on record that imo state people see Anambra as there greener pasture- (where they can survive economically unlike dry imo state), the same they see othe major states as Rivers, lagos and kano.

It is on record that Roches failed intoto in all areas of development in imo state despite massive debt he has incurred with nothing to show on the ground except ofcos clueless projects like bring civil servants to march under heavy sun.

The question I want ask you ..why is it that your graduates don't stay back to develop your imo state , they rather jump unto a bus head to PH, Onitsha or lagos?

Today some neighborhoods in Onitsha has been overtaken by your people who are invading and relocating to Anambra on daily basis. This is a sign of developed and evolved state unlike imo state. Till today there is no single Anambra living in imo state

Obi has touched all sectors: industrialization/employment, education, roads, health, agriculture, etc. Today small town as Nnewi alone has more banks than entire imo state, let's not mention Onitsha which only second to lagos in cash mobilization and bank branch network.

In all fairness Anambra is in the same league with lagos,Rivers and kano. Imo state is rated alongside Gombe, Ebonyi, ekiti, oshun etc.

If you read my post well, you'd admit I clearly stated that he worked on over 600km of roads. The only issue is that the roads are narrow single lanes without walkways, few with drainages and most without streetlights. I responded to "why people are not showing pictures from Anambra State". Even if you show the entire stretch of roads, they won't still look appealing to the eyes.

Quite unlike what you tend to think Orji has worked greatly on rural roads too but none is appealing to the eyes. Examples are these ones in Obikabia and Umueze-Agbor.

I'll open another thread on Orlu (2nd largest city Imo) vs Nnewi (2nd largest city Anambra) if you continue with this kind of sentimental remarks. There are more banks in Orlu than Nnewi today. Maybe 2 years ago it was different.

I've never met a graduate wanting to live in Onitsha all my life. You can create a poll here on Nairaland. Its Owerri and Enugu that most graduates prefer in the Southeast.

Imo and Osun are probably the brightest States in Nigeria today. Lagos is on a league of its own while Port Harcourt is on another level. It is not for petty traders.
