globemoney01: You didn't elect so don't say we elected. Ndi Anambra did and will do it all over again if given the opportunity. They know better than an internet rat like you. In any case, why didn't people vote party when Obi contested against Ngige even when Ojukwu physically campaigned for him with his last wish, he struggled to win. Even the election that brought Obiano in 2013 wasn't easy but Obiano came and won all of them in their own LGAs twice and got 21/21 landslide victory which will probably be the first and last of its kind in the history of the state. Your not from Anambra so keep quiet and take your 1 trillion nonsense to your state.
Mktinsight the demonic frustrated night owl. You are a drunkard, you are even older than Obiano but he became governor and delivered to Ndi Anambra, but you are still on nairaland running around like a bastard. Mktinsight go back to your elderly home. Your nonsense cannot stand here. Obiano maintained roads in Anambra especially Onitsha and Awka, built international airport, ICC, roads, bridges, flyovers, mall, 5 star hotel, etc. Mktinsight your evil cannot stand here. You are a devilish enemy of Anambra, it is not about Obi or Obiano. You are only taking sides because people against you here are talking good of Obiano.
abuzz33: People vote for party. APGA is the party of ndi Anambra Too bad we elected a drunkard who blew over 1 trillion and did not maintain a single road in Awka, Nnewi or Onitsha.
globemoney01: and yet when it was time for election you losers where no where to be found? Obiano went to Agulu and won, Went to Alor and won and won by landslides in those places too. Where were the singers? Even if Anambra is to elect a Governor between the three today Obiano will not only win but win in their households too....
Mktinsight you are a jobless frustrated pampers wearing old miscreant. You are a paid vagabond. You are only supporting Obi because the same people that stood against you here are supporting Obiano. Mktinsight you are a pure definition evil incarnate. Devilish night owl. No one needs your evil opinion.
abuzz33: Ride on. Nobody except hungry hyenas and touts mentions Obiano because he was mediocre. Obi on the other hand has made his name. Okwute ndi igbo. Let them land at any event. People will sing for Obi, chant for Ngige but Obiano silence.
Nwanne you have done well for getting us all these updates. Anambra international airport is the international gateway to the SE and also the only airport in Nigeria that sales aviation fuel in Nigeria with the exception of MMIA and PH international airport.
OreMI22: Obiano deserves a hero's welcome each time he is back home. His vision is still gradually unfolding for Anambra.
Imagine that a pilot told me that the airport was one of the few in the country where aviation fuel was constantly available. To top it up. They don't play with safety while refueling aircrafts. They even pull out a crash tender to stand by even for just refueling. Talk about doing things by international standards.
God bless Willie Obiano and may God help Soludo to suceed even more than Obiano!
This is really the biggest and best infrastructure that SE has seen since 1999. Anambra has set the benchmark for development as the leader and best state in Igboland. Soludo will do even better
OreMI22: As much as some people deny the astounding accomplishments of Obiano especially in the Anambra International Airport, it is just impossible to wish away these very tangible things!
Meanwhile lettable shops have been completed and Stanel mart already operates daily at the airport for all your edibles while awaiting your flight.
The avio bridges are being completed and all other facilities are already functional.
The only thing remaining is to lobby one European or Middle Eastern airline to begin scheduled international flight services to the airport. In fact, the facilities are better than the current so called international airports in Nigeria. Except perhaps only Abuja airport.
Again, as much as some faceless characters would like to lie that these things don't exist or downplay their HUGE significance in the economic development of Anambra, i will continue to commend Obiano for his service and huge accomplishments! The same way that i would commend Soludo when he begins to make his own marks in the sands of time.
enugu is an overhyped jungle, lets not deceive ourselves. No meaningful development in that backward town. I was in enugu recently, it is all hype because the reality on ground showed a town and a state begging for attention. Go to Asata, Obiagu, Uwani, Abakpa, Ogui, etc, all littered with dilapidated roads, filth, etc, we are not even talking about water scarcity that has almost rendered the town useless and worthless. Ugwuanyi has wasted almost 8yrs doing nothing, but just accummulating debt. Enugu is a failed state
I must commend the state gov't on the improved level of environmental cleanliness and tending of greenery in the areas shown. It wasn't this neat and clean before.
However, i also noticed some traffic lights weren't working....and some that were working were being ignored by motorists. Catching and fining the arseholes running red lights could be a veritable source of IGR for the state gov't! There should be a zero tolerance for flouting traffic regulations!
Also, some of the street lights looked about to be tipping over or the lights damaged.
Besides the few aforementioned issues, i can say the Ugwuanyi admin has done well from the little shown in the clip. Also noticed new rubbish receptacle bins placed where rubbish used to be dumped on the ground.
Enugu and Owerri so far are the two most scenic cities in the south-east. Though Owerri needs to up its game in environmental sanitation and tending to its greenery!
Basilio101 the bitter envious frustrated nwa nsukka. Your backward useless enugu state has thrice more debts than Anambra but there is nothing to show for this massive debt, but you are worried about Anambra with its low debt but delivered big ticket projects like the international airport, ICC, flyovers, bridges, etc. What has your backward enugu state delivered with its huge debt. Ugwuanyi the fat illiterate nsukka pig has wasted almost 8yrs with nothing to show. Stop fooling yourself everywhere because of envy and bitter.
XerXers: Obiano has set Anambra on a borrowing cycle that will soon render the state insolvent. See how much soludo has borrowed before settling down just of Obiano squandermania
Basilio101 the bitter envious frustrated nwa nsukka. Your backward useless enugu state has thrice more debts than Anambra but there is nothing to show for this massive debt, but you are worried about Anambra with its low debt but delivered big ticket projects like the international airport, ICC, flyovers, bridges, etc. What has your backward enugu state delivered with its huge debt.

XerXers: Obiano has set Anambra on a borrowing cycle that will soon render the state insolvent. See how much soludo has borrowed before settling down just of Obiano squandermania
OreMI22: Only crooks with zero regards for facts will type the type of rubbish you typed.
Your aim is to irk Obiano to use him in Destroying Obi's ambitions.
While Obiano would have been justified to go gun blazing exposing the assets and liabilities he inherited, he is a decent man that will rather allow bygones be bygone if Obi would learn the art of statesmsnship and forgiveness too.
globemoney01: Shut your ignorant mouth, what is ANIDS? What did ANIDS achieve? The only thing we knew of ANIDS was ANIDS transport which disappeared after Obi tenure, because Obiano didn't bother to investigate that fraud, ANIDS suddenly turned to Ben Flo. Maybe instead of mentioning ANIDS, mention Ben Flow.
The secretariat was substandard and refurbished by Obiano, the Amaku Hospital was empty and equipped, accredited by Obiano, with oxygen plant, doctors quarters and other facilities.
Mktinsight the demonic night owl, no one needs your evil opinion. You are a rejected fellow. Get out
abuzz33: You are very stupid and deluded. I know both Obi and Obiano not Internet knowledge. From their days at fidelity bank. Obi and Obiano are friends until tommorow. I will criticise both. Obi for his substandard roads and business interest in Hero Breweries and Obiano for his corruption.But Obiano was a big disappointment because he was given so much. Obi did a lot with little. Old Road, Secretariat, Headbridge to umunya, Harbor Layout Onitsha, New Tarzan flyover, Amaku Hospital. He did first GIS mapping of Anambra, setup ASWAMA, ANIDS.
Just shut up your dirty mouth. How many times did you make your opinion known on your abia state? Abia your state is the worst and most backward state in Nigeria but all you do is dodging discussions concerning your state while jumping on every thread concerning other states.
NwaforIgbo: Some times there's no need wasting effort to reply people like you. U deserved to be ignored. I will continue to make my opinions and if you mention me I'll simply ignore u. As they say, silence is the best anser for a ............
globemoney01: We all pray for Soludo to surpass Obiano for the interest on the state but aboki omanambala want to keep us stuck in the past with his every other day Obiano whining. Very obvious whatever his grouse is with Obiano is not about governance but like his fellow lunatic abuzz33 they will never have their way in this thread. I have been advising them to open another thread to sell their nonsense but at this point even they open another thread I will meet them there
We must always stand against their evil intentions here
You are very correct. It's a fact that Obiano left the state with big ticket projects like the airport, ICC, flyovers, bridges, etc, I know Soludo will try to outdo Obiano in big ticket projects, overall infrastructural development, etc, that way Anambra wins. So the competition becomes a vicious circle. That's good for development and advancement of the state.
OreMI22: We seriously hope that Soludo will concieve and deliver the Anambra light rail network system.
Phase 1 will be from Onitsha to the airport.
Phase2 will link phase 1 at the airport and reach Awka.
Phase 3 will connect Ekwuluobia to Nnewi to the airport and
Phase4 will connect Aguleri to the airport.
Thus, the airport will be the major interchange for traveling to other parts of the state.
It will be as ground breaking as the airport. If not better.
Obiora it is time to go to work. You are now sounding like a cracked CD plate.
Omanambala: Who is this knucklehead, bikonu. LMAO....I dont know where to begin from but I am not here to write good English , neither did I ever claimed my English was perfect. That's one. Secondly, I dont give a flying ffuck if you like my written English or not. I say what I need to say and people like you dont exist in my mind. My position never shifted in the last 10yrs.
Finally, there is a little thing called interpersonal communication skill. You don't have that , you have no manners , no public etiquette and you are bitter.
That your commas, present and past tenses and shove it down your throat.
If you had any sense, you would have addressed the point I raised and not resort to these infantile tantrums.
And yes , I live in America and passed my English classes with high scores. Just read that garbage you wrote and tell me where your commas are missing. I am here to deliberate on what going on in my state not to impress a nobody.
globemoney01: Peter Obi the thief who stole Anambra dry and wasted our oil boom period without any meaningful project will continue to be associated with lies. He has finally been exposed for not having any project to his name after 8 years while leaving behind debt and abandoned projects for the state. This is a man who couldn’t afford to build a mall in Abuja but used Anambra money to build the largest one in Abuja while abandoning the ones he was building for us. As fate will have it, karma visited the mall and burned everything to the ground. A man that opened offshore accounts as governor and was stacking Anambra money through proxies of which you were one. The reason you rant about Obiano everyday is because he refused to continue the racket that’s why you are now broke and stuck abroad… Ndi Anambra will forever thank Obiano for investing our money in visible projects than stacking it in offshore accounts.
NwaforIgbo: Me I don't believe airport should come last sha. AIrport is long overdue in all SE states. We can do this things side by side,
What is your backward abia state waiting before they have their own airport? I have told you that you people from abia shouldn't be talking in public, because your state is the worst and most backward state in Nigeria.
Mktinsight aka abuzz33, your opinion is useless and worthless. From day one, the airport has been traumatising you. Now Anambra has the airport, a standard international airport for that matter. Cry more.
abuzz33: Obiano mjnus the airport and ICC presided over armed robbery of the Anambra treasury. He sold off all the US bonds Obi bought with Anambra savings. He collected over 40 billion refund from the FGN for the expressway Obi fixed from head Bridge to umunya and the old enugu Road from Nkpor to Awka. He collected FAAC of 90 billion every year for 8 years plus IGR. And his legacy was oil rig bridge, airport, awka flyovers and icc all which cost less than 100 billion in total.
Nwokem you are yarning nonsense. I asked you a simple question, does all those states that own airports have better and cleaner cities than Anambra? The answer is no. So your point is baseless. Anambra is the only state in Nigeria that maintains 3 major cities. Anambra boasts of the best road networks at least in this region
Omanambala: You didn't see me compare Anambra to any state in Nigeria and that is for a reason. All the states in Nigeria are in third worlds status. So, stop the comparisons.
Again, airport is good but look at Awka, Nnewi and Onicha. Are you not ashamed you built a mansion in a latrine pit ?
If I were Obiano I would have spend my time cleaning our major cities, planting not less than a billion trees a year , set up an efficient waste management system , invest more in our state University, teaching hospitals, College for teachers, build massive internal roads in Onicha, Nnewi and demolish that disgraceful eke Awka. Airport will come last because we can use the ones from neighboring states.
Take this from a person who has lives in the US for over 15yrs. I am very exposed to good governance.
Security? Road? Health care? Which state in SE has it more than Anambra?
Nwokem, Anambra needed airport like yesterday and more than any state in SE.
My happiness is that we have finally got and international standard at that.
Omanambala: Oga , airport is not the most important facility. The most important is security ,roads and healthcare because less than 10% of Ndi Anambra travel by air. I know how excited you are about the airport, but in Anambra we reason properly.
All the states that own airports are not better than Anambra in organisation, clean planned cities, serenity, etc. Even a particular state in SE that has perennial water scarcity has airport, they should have used the funds to fix water issue that has kept the state backward among other challenges like bad roads and general under development particularly in the rural areas. No matter what anyone thinks, Anambra is the most developed state in igboland in all facets of development and having an airport in such a state is a matter of necessity which has already placed the state where it rightly belongs as a first rate economic hub.
Omanambala: We can have an airport but I want things to be well planned. You shouldn't build an airport in the midst of squalor. Build your roads, clean your city, organize it , plant trees/grass etc then you venture into other things. What is do hard to understand about this. Again, stop engaging the ofu ogoli..
Every administration comes and focus on some areas. Obi came with his ANIDS and that made some improvements on the rural roads, though some of them had to be retouched by Obiano administration. However Obiano came with big ticket projects like flyovers, bridges, airport, ICC, etc, even completion of 5 star hotel, mall, etc. All these placed Anambra among the first rate state in Nigeria. Improved massively the capital city with flyovers, roads, ICC, Awka Millennium city, etc, Onitsha equally got other improvements but no single administration can fix everything, so that's why APGA is very key in Anambra politics because of continuum in development. Soludo has come with his own agenda, he is not going to be building airport because it has been built, no more ICC, because it has been built.
Omanambala: You have known me long enough to know my character is never changing. I have praised Obiano for the airport but look at the condition he left Onicha, Nnewi and our capital, Oka. Those were the first places he should have started.
Look at the tonne of garbage lifted from the gutters at Onicha, look at Eke Awka. I know where Obiano lived at Spring Cypress and how much his house cost and recently he moved to a palatial home at the Woodlands in Texas. You need to go the USA and see The Woodlands and how much houses cost there.
Now, look at Awka , our capital and compare that to Obiano's recent acquisition.
Obiano robbed Anambra and enriched his friends that is why he pulled out all our savings and used it to build those airport and ICC. Without Obi's savings Obiano would have ended with absolute nothingness.
I am not here to kiss anybody ass. If this is Chino then you should know me well , because you have called me from Nigeria some 10yrs ago. I love and breathe Anambra more that any walking human and I will do anything to make Anambra proud.
Except that, because I was shocked that someone said that the economic hub of SE like Anambra doesn't need an airport. Today, Anambra international airport is the most developed and busiest in the region with avio bridges as the latest addition amongst other worldclass facilities
globemoney01: He's not from Anambra, you should start treating him like other enemies of Anambra.
The only reasonable post you made is the first paragraph.
How dare you say that Anambra doesn't need airport and ICC? Is there any state in SE that needs airport than Anambra? None.
Anambra is the most developed state in SE with 3 major progressive cities. Soludo is now on the steering wheel to take the state to another new level. Anambra represents to the SE what Lagos and Rivers states represents to the SW and SS.
Omanambala: You no dey rest. If you are serious about Anambra not being real Igbo why are you constantly here joining words with us the Igala and Bini ?
Anambra may not be perfect but we are very proud of our state as you can see and we will make sure Anambra becomes a first world society in 10yrs. Obiano was a big mistake because he failed at Onicha, Oka and Nnewi. If Obiano had put in the kind of planning. cutting cost of governance, unearthing roads , waste management, city/town planning etc that Soludo jumped on immediately he was sworn in , by now Anambra would have become so beautiful and heading to become one of the choicest destination in Nigeria.
Today, we have infrastructural deficits with an empty treasury. And all his useless defenders could come up with is that he built ICC and Airport. Meanwhile, it was Obi's savings that was emptied to build those two infrastructures we really didn't need. Obiano knows very well he failed so after over 6yrs in office he sneaked into our savings and used over 100 billion to build those two projects and saved his failure. This billions should have been used in building roads infrastructures we lack in Onicha , Oka and Nnewi. Obiano took us back to Egypt and people are praising him.
Whilst Obiano was in office, Anambra never won number one in waec, something we won three times under Obi. Obiano abandoned our most pressing needs and wasted our resources in building airport and ICC. Today, he is with that awful wife of his in the South America getting drunk.
