lol.... The dude was already a billionaire before he became a governor, his the only source of South African win in Nigeria called two Oceans, he also supply other brand of S.A wines, his the only source of ovatin chocolate drink in Nigeria, he owns Fidelity bank, he own chain of stores and mall in S.A before he became a governor. Regarding the story that his media was caught with money was true but not that amount, it four million in cash but the media wrote 250 million which the EFCC HAS drop the case which they say is the media personal money.
Regarding the LGA fund, would u prefer that he used LGA funds to transform the state and also make public school more via and attractive than Private school or u just prefer him to give it to LGA chairman to pocket?.

Realisticman:
Why are you people so allergic to criticism? What is the meaning of ' we dealt with gbewe'? The igbos are so irritating I swear. Must you support all ills so far it is coming from your kinsmen? If Ekweremadu has done wrong let him face it. Honestly a country with such kind of people is far from development.

Yes, we are aware of all the garbes you posted now.


Peter Obi was never a poor guy before he contested Governor!

Accept the fact that he wasn't a saint, yet he left the state on a better stage more than he meet anyone else.

Coming to your allegations of 250million naira.. We still need an evidence.
Coming to his Mall at Abuja, go back to your drawing table, and check when the project started.

Oh mpa at Onitsha, is a public-private gov't business.

Peter Obi remains the best Governor in the fourth republic of South Eastern state.

Well, I haven't heard of EFCC following him with these your assuming watering mouthed guttared diarhoea mouth.[/s]

Everybody knows you're are a hypocrite and a shameless one for that, except your fellow bigots, Yorubas on this forum are utterly ashamed of you.

Save your cookie for your sons who will soon deny you publicly!

clevadani:
Who gave these people the right to speak?
What have they done to advance the yoruba race?
How have they affected the life of the average yorubaman??
You claim to be elders,yet you came out abusing everybody without proferring a single solution. What a bunch of jokers.

So jagaban a local champion in ludo got over fed and challenged his Chi to a game of chess? No wonder! The gods are wise.

“Bola Tinubu, who plays ludo game in Lagos, now went to Abuja to play chess, only to be defeated and watched the inauguration of the 8th Assembly on television. That can never be a Yoruba leader”.

Yinka Odumakin, national publicity secretary of Afenifere, a pan-Yoruba socio-cultural group, has said that whereas the late Obafemi Awolowo, former premier of the western region, was arguably a leader of the Yoruba nation, Olusegun Obasanjo, former president, and Bola Tinubu, former Lagos State governor, did not fit into the mould of leaders of the Yoruba race.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with BD SUNDAY, Odumakin alleged that Obasanjo and Tinubu were lacking the integrity and moral values to assume leadership role of the Yoruba race.

The political activist frowned at the claim in some quarters that the duo have since stepped into the “big shoe” left by Awolowo and insists that Obasanjo and Tinubu were only pursuing their “inordinate ambition”.

“It is an insult on Awolowo for Tinubu and his likes to claim to be ‘Awoist’. Awo would turn in the grave when Tinubu or his followers begin to compare him with the likes of Tinubu. In what area is the current politicians in the south west are like Awolowo? Is it in vision? Is it in character? So, when he comes to leadership, we will now move from Awolowo to Tinubu?” he said.

He said painful to “true Yoruba” in the current political dispensation was that the seat Abraham Adesanya occupied while in the Senate, is the same seat that Buruji Kashamu, who is fighting to halt his extradition to the United States over drug offences allegation is occupying in the 8th National Assembly.

“These are some of the tragedies that Nigeria has visited on Yoruba politics in terms of assaults on our value; where leadership is about character, about integrity, about vision. In Yoruba land, leadership is not bought; bent; is not something you rig or achieve through judicial pronouncements. To these set of politicians, it is a game of money. But in terms of values these people do not represent Yoruba people; leadership that is devaluing our people on daily basis. Ninety (90) percent of lawmakers in the south west cannot even express themselves; people with criminal background; people without pedigree; people who are uneducated; semi-illiterates; and that is the leadership somebody is promoting deliberately,” he said.

According to him, former President Obasanjo represents negative influence on the Yoruba politics, and that given the opportunities God has given him to preside over the affairs of the country for 11 years, and that by now, Obasanjo should have been an institution people would go to and blossom at his feet.

“Obasanjo should have been Nigeria’s Lee Kuan Yew, but he messed up on the altar of inordinate ambition, ego and squander-mania. His history balance at his twilight is negative because at the last meeting between President Muhammadu Buhari and the governors, they were talking about Excess Crude Account. Obasanjo started it. When you know that the likely project is that oil will sell at $60, you now benchmarked at $40. All the differences that now come between what you have used as benchmark you go and put in an account you don’t need any appropriation before spending and call it ‘excess’. But we know it is excess corruption. He was petroleum minister in this country for most of his eight years. What happened? We know how much he sunk into the power sector. What happened to the money? It was under him they were displaying money on the table of the National Assembly; bribing money. We saw how money was flying at the National Assembly over Obasanjo’s third term agenda,” he said.

Asked to comment on the power tussle currently rocking the ruling APC over the emergence of Bukola Saraki, and Yakubu Dogara, as Senate President and Speaker of the House of Representative respectively, he said: “Bola Tinubu, who plays ludo game in Lagos, now went to Abuja to play chess, only to be defeated and watched the inauguration of the 8th Assembly on television. That can never be a Yoruba leader”.

Odumakin, who also said that party politics was dead in the country, explained that the desire to serve self had blighted the essence of service to the people of Nigeria, adding that some individuals had turned political parties into avenue to amass wealth and influence.

According to him, “Half of PDP decamped to a party and you called it APC! Before the elections all of them raised a bunch of broom and shouted ‘change’. But it is no longer a bunch of broom. It is rather, one stick of broom. Where is the change coming from? Who is giving change to whom? We saw the characters that were talking change; most of them have been in power for over 16 years. We know their system and where most of them are coming from. What binds them together was the common hatred for Jonathan. Anybody that says Jonathan is a fool is a ‘progressive’. Now that there is no Jonathan anymore, the weapons that were used against Jonathan have to be used against themselves in sharing the loots. We have only seen them boxing themselves. In due course, we will see them carrying cutlasses and bazookas. There is no party in Nigeria at the moment.”

[s]These clowns have still not lent to speak for themselves than claiming to speak for the Ibos.
So because Ekweremadu is Ibo he should not be prosecuted if found to have forged a document?Yeye dey smell.
These fools should ask themselves what 8years of combined Ibo presidency of the senate and another 8years of Ekweremadu deputy presidency brought to the east other than lining their pockets,building mansions for themselves and partying while scamming the southeast with a never ending 2nd Niger bridge.
While the average person in Nigeria is demanding equal justice for all and an economically viable nation where individuals can get their daily bread and fend for their families;some disgruntled and misguided Ohaneze Ndigbo are fighting to keep one individual in an office that won't yield one single economic benefit to the the region and they claim to be speaking for the Ibos?Tah!![/s]

the truth is that Peter does not share public funds to politicians, I know this for sure because I stayed at government house during my study days at NAU, his favourite car is 406,he does not move with too much entourage and only blows the siren at Unizik Junction because heavy traffic there. I met him one day at a small normal restaurant at Aroma eating, from story i heard from his entourage he hate first class and luxurious Hotel Rooms, his commissioner for works has only Toyota Hilux as official car, That guy is a leader.

Bleep,

I don't do hate dude, I don't hate Obiano neither do I give any phuck about his wife but what both do with the power given to him will always arouse my interest attract criticisms from me aswell.

If you check back you will see where I praised him for the ASBA innovation and gave him the ovation such idea deserves.

Am not blinded by any sentiments, I face issues squarely and rationally, what Obiano is doing in Anambra State is no longer palatable if we must cure ourselves of blind loyalty.
Saying that I hate Mrs Obiano is the highest degree of hypocrisy, the woman is just another Mama Piss in the making but you guys will always keep blind eyes. She need to shown that isn't nothing but domestic appendage and should know how to comport herself in the public glare.

This government is the most nepotic and clannish government I have witnessed since I started following Anambra politics starting from old Anambra State.

Yes his side of Anambra State is underdeveloped to compare to other side, am not disputing that but developing one area in negligence of other areas should also be condemned. Some of the towns your saying that developed more than his side were as a result of individuals and town unions who pool the resources together to develop their land not actually necessaryly government aided development.

I lived in a river community in Anambra State, what most river communities in Anambra lack is the sense of community development. This is why their areas remain the most underdeveloped areas until strangers started buying lands, which they sell to marry many wives and eat fresh fish and pounded yam.

Please I don't hate anybody, I hate people's actions, decisions and attitudes to others and myself inclusive, I don't criticize Mrs Obiano because she wears Christian Dior or Louis Vuittion while Omanbalas kids go to bed on empty stomachs rather am against her comments and decisions as they pertain to Anambra affairs.

[s]Buhari has become too soft and kind by all standards,even that as low as Nigeria's.
For him to have allowed Marilyn Ogar to remain in service is an uncommon valour rarely seen.I hope he doesn't continue this way.
Marilyn ogar shd have been summarily dismissed with no terminal benefits,tried and jailed.
Anyone against this kind move by PMB is a compound fool.
Anyone who reads any sentimental reason into this move by PMB, like the op is a compound lunatic and shd be confined to Yaba left.
Unfortunately there are many psychos roaming nland since PMB was sworn in having lost their crumbs from d tables of thieves that held us down.[/s]
