Granted, ...

Willie Obiano deserves commendation not condemnation.

Everything this OP said is true. Obiano also boosted rice production to visible degree. It's everywhere in our state. You don't need to read Audio.

But Obiano failed in internal security. Onitsha evening criminals had surged to a diabolical degree just before Soludo came to tackle them.

But OP, unemployment in Anambra State was reported at 44% in NBS' most recent national unemployment statistics.
Anybody that passed Anambra would have noticed much higher poverty in the state.


But it's Igbos turn: Whether Amaechi or Obi, one must rule. And I know their worst case scenario. It will still be a good one. Osinbajo can go and be Ogun State Gov. They need him.

Obiano Boosts Education With N2bn Scholarship For Physically Challenged

Gov Obiano took ICT a step further by ensuring that Anambra teachers became ICT compliant. It is worthy of note that 40% of school teachers in Anambra State became ICT compliant in 2014/15 academic year. More have gained requisite training since then. At a time ICT compliance became a prerequisite for promotion of teachers. The Obiano administration also provided laptops for teachers in the state.



In 2015, Governor Obiano sent 28 teachers to Singapore for further training in ICT and other critical areas to enhance their skills. This has become a standard in Anambra State and has improved the quality of education in the State. The Obiano administration also instituted the policy that teachers in hard-to-reach areas will be given 20 percent of their salaries as incentives to encourage and ensure that students in such locations are not denied quality education. This policy has been in full implementation for over seven years and has encouraged teachers to give their best at all times.

More achievements in education.

The Commissioner for Education, Anambra State, Prof. Kate Omenugha, has explained reasons why the state is succeeding in the educational sector, noting that Governor Willie Obiano had through a three point thrust in education- infrastructure, teachers’ and students’ welfare, given education in the state the best attention.

Speaking during the 27th Edition of Anambra Scorecard, Prof. Omenugha explained that the blueprint of Gov. Obiano is very clear with the strategic objective of making sure that the learning needs of all are met through equitable distribution of resources.

Prof. Kate Omenugha
Taking her time to dissect the three areas Governor Obiano has excelled in education, Omenugha, talking about Infrastructure said through ASUDEB, the governor has renovated schools, both at the primary and junior secondary levels and over a thousand classroom blocks have been provided across the 21 local government areas in the state.

She further stated that there is a total revamping ongoing in all technical colleges in Anambra, which hitherto were non-accredited and near moribund.

Omenugha explained the import of the revamping taking place in the technical colleges, saying that that will create employment because youths will be trained on technical know-how and then be able to contribute meaningfully to the state’s economy.

While speaking on teachers’ welfare, Prof Omenugha said that “this is one area Governor Obiano has done exceptionally well”, citing that as a son of a teacher, the governor knows what it takes to keep teachers happy.

Prof Omenugha who highlighted teachers welfare packages to include; increase in their salary, paying of 20% of basic salary to teachers who are posted and retained in some difficult-to-access areas of the state and also giving of stipends as incentives to teachers who teach core subjects.

According to Prof Omenugha, a lot of capacity building has been done for the teachers example of which is the Singapore trip where good number of teachers were selected to learn the Singaporean model of education.

Prof Omenugha, while thanking the governor for clearing the backlog of salaries, arrears and pensions owed teachers, told the story of her experience in Abuja recently, where she had gone to present a paper on how to enhance teaching quality in Nigeria.

She said of all the things that kept churning out were chunks of arrears of salaries owed teachers across the federation but that Anambra became the toast of all present.

When asked if her mandate was only for primary and secondary schools or it includes tertiary institutions, she has this to say, “No, our mandate includes the tertiary institutions… Since governor Obiano came on board, what he has done in the state owned institutions is to ensure transparency. He set up governing councils for these institutions.

“He also increased subvention of these institutions, more than 200% increase, so that they can pay their salaries conveniently.

“We know about the medical students of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University who had been there for 10 years, they were recently graduated and given automatic employment by Willie Obiano,” she added.

On why there are no educational competitions in our tertiary institutions, Prof Omenugha mentioned that tertiary institutions do claim autonomy and it is hard to dabble into such but promised to look into that to see if there is something the ministry could do.
