Politics / Moment Ex-governor Obiano's Wife Was Seen Trying To Pacify Man Who Refused To Sh by AnambraPeople: 12:29pm On Nov 11, 2023
Moment Ex-Governor Obiano's Wife Was Seen Trying to Pacify Man Who Refused To Shake Hands with Husband


Ebele Obiano, the wife of former Governor of Anambra State, was captured on video trying to pacify businessman, Chief Okey Ezeibe who disgraced her husband in an event by refusing to have a handshake with him. The incident took place at an event in Houston, Texas, where Ezeibe refused to shake hands with the former governor.

In the viral video, Ebele Obiano can be seen jokingly holding onto Okey Ezeibe, attempting to pacify him and begging him to forgive her husband. Ezeibe makes it clear that his issue is solely with Former Governor Willie Obiano, and not with Ebele Obiano herself.

This encounter occurred at the same event where Okey Ezeibe declined to shake hands with Willie Obiano. Anambra People Magazine previously reported on the incident, which took place in Houston, Texas.

There have been several speculations regarding Ezeibe's refusal to shake hands with Obiano. Some believe it may be due to unresolved business matters, while others think it could be related to Obiano's treatment of his predecessor, Mr. Peter Obi, who happens to be a friend of Okey Ezeibe.

Politics / Soludo Demolishes Olulu Eke Deity In Ekwulobia, Anambra (Video) by AnambraPeople: 12:34pm On Nov 09, 2023

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iqnxjYHEc0?si=ixyd6xNVHkN0bPOP

Soludo Finally Demolishes Olulu Eke Deity in Ekwulobia(Video)

The Anambra State Government has successfully demolished the popular "Olulu Eke Deity" in Ekwulobia in order to make way for the construction of a flyover at the town's roundabout. This comes after Governor Soludo had previously threatened to remove the deity, which was met with resistance from worshippers.

The Udo Olulu Eke deity holds significant reverence among worshippers in Ekwulobia and the surrounding area of Aguata. Even the Chief priest of Udo Olulu Eke Ekwulobia, known as Okenye (the Ancient One), had challenged the government's intentions. Okenye argued that if Governor Soludo believed the government owned the site of Udo Olulu Eke in Ekwulobia, then he should attempt to destroy or remove it without following due process. He emphasized the potential repercussions that the forceful demolition may have and disclosed that he was merely delivering a message as instructed.

From the viral video of the demolition, the driver of the caterpillar operating the machinery was seen dropping a kola nut on the ground as a sign of respect to the deity before he could proceed.

The demolition of the Olulu Eke Deity was executed as part of the government's development plan to facilitate the construction of Ekwulobia flyover. While the plan is viewed as beneficial for the town, Governor Soludo has faced opposition and warnings about the potential consequences of removing the deity.

Politics / How To Replace You Is Now A Major Point Of Discussion Among Anambrarians, Ubah by AnambraPeople: 4:48pm On Nov 08, 2023
How to Replace You is Now A Major Point of Discussion Among Anambrarians, Ifeanyi Ubah Hits Back at Soludo.

Senator representing Anambra South in the Nigerian Senate, Ifeanyi Ubah has hit back at Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo for using what he described as his "attack dog" in running a smear campaign against his person and equally insulting his Nnewi constituents.

Recall that Chinedu Obigwe, founder of APGA media warriors,had recently, reacting to a write up where Senator Ifeanyi Ubah boosted it was the turn of ndi Nnewi to govern Anambra State addressed the Senator in a condescending manner.

Speaking through his media aide ,Chuks Kamen, Senator Ubah describes Soludo's leadership in the State as lackluster and noted that Anambrarians have started discussions on Soludo's replacement just 2 years in to his administration.

In a statement released by Chuks kamen,He wrote:


"My attention has been drawn to the above-captioned tirade from a notorious media attack dog on the payroll of Professor Chukwuma Soludo’s government, by the name Chinedu Obigwe, alias Akpaekpuchionwa, whose penchant for running smear campaigns on eminent personalities and stakeholders in the state, on the orders of the State Governor is well-known and well documented on this media space.

"It is worthy to note that this unprovoked state government-sponsored media attack on the distinguished senator of the Federal Republic as well as the entire members of his community, Nnewi, is purportedly in response to a little-known blog’s news item that neither emanated from the Senator nor from his media office.



"It is also worth noting at this juncture that this is the third state-sponsored media attack on prominent citizens of Anambra in the last few weeks, the first being the media attack on Chief Obiora Okonkwo, the CEO of United Nigeria Airlines.

"This was closely followed by another series of state-sponsored social media attacks on the Chief Executive Officer of G.U.O Transport, Chief Dr. (Sir) Godwin Ubaka Okeke, MON, whose only sin was his demand that his company driver who was thoroughly beaten and dehumanised by state government thugs be given fair treatment and compensated.

"One may ask, why request prayers for Governor Soludo?

"It has become a thing of great concern to every reasonable Anambrarian that our dear Professor and one term Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) cannot point to one completed road project almost two years into his tenure and neither has he made any tangible attempt to curb the growing disenchantment with his governance style by introducing any groundbreaking reform(s) nor has he made any concrete effort aimed at changing the existential quagmire that Anambra represents which renders the popular question by a former Governor of the State, Mr Peter Obi, still relevant and unanswered till date.

"Is Anambra cursed, or are we the cause?

"Secondly, Professor Soludo is a governor who came into office riding on the back of huge expectations from Ndi Anambra and Nigerians in general but the question is, has that transformed into any tangible results and which one of his electoral promises has he fulfilled almost two years into his tenure including the promise of conducting local government elections within six months of swearing in.

"Of course, the answer is NON.

:Is this a case of “onye agholili, ka agbalu”? (A deliberate hoodwink on Ndi Anambra.)

"Prof Chukwuma Charles Soludo must have realised that he currently holds the record of being the first democratically elected Governor of Anambra whose would-be successor is already being actively discussed in almost every gathering in Anambra less than two years into his tenure which is the clearest exhibition that the people are already in search of a replacement having realised their error so soon in the day.

"But is this reason enough for the state government to prefer running smear campaigns on the towering personality of the Distinguished Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Ubah, CON, when he can easily opt to adapt his widely acclaimed security solution in Nnewi, apply it to the entire state and take the accolades.

"It is probably when the efficacy of the solicited prayers start working that it will finally dawn on the Erudite Professor (who believes he knows it all) that retaining and paying for the services of media attack dogs with government funds is a pure case of the Professor fiddling while his Rome burns.

"Please spare a moment of prayer for Professor Chukwuma Soludo, the former one-term governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria".

A Must Read: How Ebonyi State Government Is Oppressing Me, Because Am From Anambra – Man cries Out

By: Aka Jean-Philips Ifeanyi

Fellow Nigerians. I want to specially appreciate God the Most High for the grace of life and health. I pray that God restore health to the sick and help our leaders to look in the direction of fixing this country. I also want to salute the good work of Ebonyi State Governor, Rt. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru for the good work he is doing in Ebonyi State. He is the most mentioned Governor as regards his good start.

My name is Aka Jean-Philips Ifeanyi, from Anambra State and am the CEO of AKAJEAN & COMPANY/BN: 2018666. On August 2022, My Company had an Agreement with Ebonyi State Government to Supply and Install 200Kw (276HP) EBARA FIRE PUMP PACK (Electric, Diesel and Jockey), 2-SETS at Ebonyi State International Airport Onueke. The total Contract sum is Sixty-Eight Million, Eight Hundred Thousand Naira only and that the payment was to be made in parts which is 70% of the contract sum shall be released for the mobilization, 15% shall be released upon supply of the equipment to site and the final 15% shall be released upon the installation and Testing of the Fire Pumps Sets. And I was given five (5) weeks to deliver.

As someone who wants to establish a working relationship with the Government of Ebonyi State, I went to Bank and took loan so as to be able to deliver the Job. I contacted my partners in Turkey and begged to accept part payment from me and Freight the necessary equipments required to produce a quality Fire Pumps and they accepted.

I have supplied the pumps and was paid the 85% which was for the mobilization and supply to site. I have also Installed with Steel Pipes works fabrications and we have Tested the Pump Sets and confirmed that it is performing optimally, with attestation letter requested by the government for my final payment approval.

The Government of Ebonyi State under the Former Governor His Excellency Sen David Nweze Umahi has APPROVED my Final Payments in May and has asked the Accountant General to pay me. Ever since then, they have refused to effect the payment and I have written to them on several occasions and have made huge financial commitment to realize that money. I have been to Ebonyi on right (cool different occasions from Lagos and on the invitation of the various Government functionaries ranging from Commissioners, SAs, PA and others. I have stayed in a hotel in Ebonyi for 42 days just to make sure that the government pay me this money but to no avail.

The most worrisome thing about this is that the bank I took loan from has clamped down on my business. I don’t have money again to finance the new jobs which I got and things are not funny on my side. None of them at the government house is picking my calls again.

One of those days I was staying in Ebonyi State, one of my guy came and told me in confidence that I should leave the state. That my continued disturbance of the state government over my money may cost me my life. I quickly took to my heel.

All I beg Nigerians is to come to my aide and assist me in begging the Ebonyi State Government to pay me my money so that I can pay back the loan I took from bank even if I did not make anything from the job.

All the documents needed to prove and support every of my claims are with available.

All my efforts to get my payment failed.

Education / Lightning Strikes 9 Students Playing Football In Anambra, Kills 3 by AnambraPeople: 6:14pm On Nov 05, 2023
Lightning strikes 9 students playing football in Anambra, kills 3



Lightning has killed three Senior Secondary School (SS3) students in Awka South Local Government Area of Anambra.

The incident happened on Saturday.

An eye witness told our correspondent that the lightning struck nine male students who were playing football with their peers on the school pitch barefooted.

“The students were practicing on the football pitch with their coach preparatory to a football tournament.

“The coach had ended the training session before rain started, but some of the students stayed behind to continue playing football.

“Lightning, accompanied by claps of thunderstorm suddenly enveloped the area and the boys were struck in the process.

“A teacher heard the students screaming and running. He ran to the field and saw at least nine students trembling and jerking on the turf.

“That was when he raised the alarm and people gathered to help. The boys were immediately rushed to the school clinic, from where they were taken to hospital in Awka.

“Six of the nine boys were resuscitated and are currently receiving treatment, but three did not survive. Their parents have been contacted,’’ the witness told NAN.

A resident, Mrs Hope Egwu, told our correspondent that news of the accident went round on Sunday and everyone had been held spellbound.


At the hospital in Awka, parents and sympathisers trooped into the ward where the survivors were receiving treatment.

A doctor, who requested anonymity, told our correspondent that three out of the nine boys were brought into the hospital dead, but six others were revived.

“As of now, parents of two of the dead boys have taken the corpses away, while one is still in the mortuary.

“It is sad that they were playing on the field barefooted. If they had boots on, the impact of the lightning would probably have been minimised,’’ he said.


When contacted, police spokesman in Anambra, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, said the incident had not been reported to the police.

Speaking on the incident, Prof. Chukwudi Okani, Consultant Pathologist at the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital, Awka, said it was a natural disaster and not spiritual.

Okani said lightning could kill by electrocution through direct strike, side splash or ground current strike.

He advised that people should install thunder arrestors in their buildings to stave off electrical current in the event of lightning.

Politics / Okey Ezeibe Refuses To Shake Obiano In Texas (Video) by AnambraPeople: 7:44pm On Oct 27, 2023

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0SX2tWu84g

Anambra billionaire and founder of Legacy Motors , Chief Okey Ezeibe, disgraces Obiano in an event in Houston Texas.

Chief Okey Ezibe was seen refusing to accept handshake from the ex governor at a public function.

Okey Ezibe who is a PDP Chieftain, is a die hard supporter of former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi.

His refusal to have a handshake with Obiano might not be unconnected with the way Obiano treated Peter Obi, his friend ,when he held sway as governor.

This incident in Texas seems to be a manifestation of the political differences and personal grievances between Chief Okey Ezibe and ex Governor Obiano. The refusal to shake hands can be seen as a symbolic act of protest against Obiano's actions towards Okey's friend, Peter Obi. It also highlights the divisions within the political landscape of Anambra State.

Politics / Is Prof Soludo Becoming A Tyrant? by AnambraPeople: 11:37am On Oct 21, 2023
Is Prof Soludo Becoming A Tyrant?



There has been so many brutal incidents that have happened in the administration of governor professor Chukwuma Charles Soludo since his assumption of office on March 17, 2022 that the governor has refused to condemn.

These brutal incidents were perpetrated by his Aides and political appointees but the governor's silence and refusal to investigate, suspend and sanction the Aides and appointees involved in those acts shows they have his support to carry out such brazen impunity.

1. On June this year during the teachers recruitment exercise by the Soludo’s administration, there were inhuman treatments and verbal abuse of job seekers by the Commissioner for Education, Prof Ngozi Chuma Udeh. There was a stampede at the venue of the recruitment due to improper planning, but rather than take responsibility for poor planning, the Commissioner transferred her failures to the applicants

Sadly, Prof Soludo backed her action and refused to sanction her.

2. On July 2022, Prophet Chukwuemeka Odumeje was manhandled and physically beaten by the Anambra state task force while demolishing his church at Onitsha.

The video footage of Prophet Odumeje attracted condemnation online. Prof Soludo in his official Facebook handle condemned the assault but hours later, the post was deleted and pulled down from Facebook. It was gathered that the governor was unhappy that one of his aides could condemn the act with seeking clearance from him.

His administration backed the assault and physical beaten of Odumeje.

3. On September 2023, one Peter Uduekwelu from Agulu was killed by the Anambra state revenue collectors. The state govt has not publicly condemned the act nor arrested the culprits for prosecution. It took a daily protest of Agulu community for police to order for investigation.

4. Yesterday, there was a brutal attack with matchet on the driver of GUO motors. The attack was supervised by Hon Ossy Onuko, the ACTDA boss.

While the public was condemning the attack, the office of the governor issued a press statement backing the brutality and claiming that the GUO driver was reckless while overtaking the ACTDA boss on a high way.

This is a sign of tyranny. Prof Soludo should refrain from these excesses and restrain his boys to the tenets of democracy where human is treated with dignity.

Politics / War In Anambra As Soludo's Aide Adichie, Hits Hard On Obiora Okonkwo, United Nig by AnambraPeople: 6:51pm On Oct 16, 2023
War In Anambra as Soludo's Aide Adichie, Hits Hard on Obiora Okonkwo, United Nigeria Airline Boss


I grew up knowing Obiora Okonkwo as a man of every election in Anambra state. He has come to be addressed as a serial contender and a serial election sore loser, contesting everything that is contestable and losing woefully all the time has been his hallmark, losing even to the weakest Co-contestants such as Valentine Ozigbo in the last PDP primary election before jumping into ZLP in the last election thereby finishing 36 out of 36.



Wearing the toga of a serial election contender and a sore loser, and becoming an emergent TV analyst, Obiora Okonkwo hails from Ogidi, an election season philanthropist. It is shameful that having contested a series of senatorial and gubernatorial elections and spent a huge amount of money, he has not deemed it fit to construct a road that leads to his house or his father’s house nor even have a toilet built-in his name in his community.



Obiora Okonkwo is considered miserable in Anambra politics and has never achieved anything politically because of his inconsistencies and lack of vision. He has no followers to deliver him and has no clout to deliver anyone politically, even in his ward where he has continued to fail woefully. He should be reminded that his 2025 gubernatorial ambition which he has kick-started with his “Media Aide” -Uloka leading a very weak and cheap fake news on state institutions is a pipe dream.



For now, Ndi Anambra deserves their peace and the normalcy that Soludo’s administration has restored to all parts of the state, including the sanity he has brought on our roads and markers, free and qualitative education in all the public schools, free antenatal and free delivery in all the government hospitals, the over 350 km of roads currently ongoing across the state, security of life and property, prudence and open and e-governance, and among others. Ndi Anambra doesn't deserve doesn't deserve this madness from Obiora Okonkwo’s pipe dream ambition, he should totally be ignored by concerned citizens.

Travel / Yuletide: Peace Mass Transit Drivers Get Road Safety Refresher Training by AnambraPeople: 12:49pm On Dec 21, 2022
The over 3000 drivers in the employ of Peace Mass Transit (PMT) have been receiving refresher training on safe driving at the Emene, Enugu, headquarters of the company.


The training, which has been ongoing since the onset of "Ember Months," takes the drivers through conventional safety drills and basic customer relations expectations.

PMT safety and customer service departments regularly oversee these rehearsals, which are designed to keep drivers properly grounded in matters of safety and customer handling.


The general manager of Peace mass transit, Ifeanyi Enete, has been impressing it on the drivers to make use of the opportunity of the refresher to update themselves with the rudiments of defensive and safe driving.

"Sometimes, doing the same thing regularly can make you take things for granted," he explained. "This exercise is meant to test them afresh and remind them of their obligations to our passengers and other road users, particularly during this busy period when there are more vehicles on the highway, many driven by amateurs."

"We keep doing this regularly because that is the only way to go," Enete pledged.
