Abagworo:
Chino please stop giving yourself sleepless nights because of your own fellow Igbo State of Imo. Our development should be a thing of pride to you and not a thing of envy and hatred. All Nigerian States have the same problems but at varying degrees. Owerri is one of the finest and most modern city in Nigeria and God blessed it with good sandy soil which makes it pleasant to the eyes and attractive to the affluent.

If Anambra develops its a good thing for me and not a cause for envy. For example I keep recomending the Nnewi model for Igbos in general because I see it as successful. However government played little role in Nnewi and it happened in the 70s and early 80s after the civil war. It did not happen because Peter Obi became Governor or after division of old Anambra into two in 1991.

Awka has been a capital for 24 years and therefore not really that young. I am glad you boast of plans or ongoing constructions because you believe the future is bright and not that its already uhuru.

Anambra has its fair share of very disgusting roads right at the heart of cities like Onitsha and Awka as well as highways like Enugu/Onitsha. Stop spreading falsehood and face that reality.

thank you well done..............he is nw in yaba left....na chain they use hold am nw

Many who know Nkiru Sylvanus
regard her as one of the best things
that has ever happened to the movie
industry. In this exclusive interview
with ANTHONY ADA ABRAHAM , the
director general, Imo State Film
Academy speaks on her relationship
with the Imo State governor and
other issues. What have you been up
to lately especially since the premiere
of your much acclaimed film, The
Voice?
I’ve been busy with a couple of other
movie projects since then. Of course,
you know that entertainment is my
first love. So it’s always dear to my
heart; you can never let go of your
first love. I’m working seriously, so
you are going to hear from me
soonest. I’ve got a couple of projects
lined up for the year, but as you
know, it’s the election season and
there is a kind of lull. But trust me, as
soon as we get over the election
fever, I’ll swing into action.
You were the Special Adviser (AS)
Lagos Affairs, to the government
of Imo State, SA on public affairs
and now the Director General, Imo
Film Academy, what do you think
are the chances of the governor in
the coming election?
The chances of His Excellency Anayo
Owelle Rochas Okorocha are non-
negotiable. In fact, there’s no other
candidate as far as Imo people are
concerned. This is a man that has
come to be adored by the people of
Imo state. He has achieved way more
than any governor that has led Imo
state in the past. His works speak for
him and the people of Imo know that
Rochas Okorocha is a man that
represents progress. Imo state has
moved forward under him, the state
has developed in all ramifications.
From health to education,
infrastructure to empowerment and
what have you! So, Imo people
definitely want the governor back
because they don’t want to go
backward. Rochas Okorocha within a
short period has taken Imo people
miles ahead. They are now proud of
their state.
In most of your interviews, you’ve
always expressed passionate
views about the governor. It was
even rumoured that you were
dating him. What can you say?
Rumours are what they are, baseless
rumours! The governor is my boss,
but it will be unfair to see something
good and not mention it. I speak
passionately about him all the time,
because of his good works, his belief
and his passion for positive change.
This is a man whom the people of
Imo generally love for his good
works. Since Okorocha became
governor, the number of dualised
road networks has increased,
creation of new access roads are
uncountable, while old dilapidated
roads have been repaired and rural
roads are uncountable. Positive
impacts have also been made in the
rehabilitation of public utilities,
health, agriculture, youth
empowerment, infrastructure
improvements, etc. I can list his
achievements from now till
tomorrow and it won’t end.
But where do you think these
negative rumours are coming
from?
They are all lies. Propaganda fueled
by those who are enemies of the
state. They’ve realised that
Okorocha’s achievements cannot be
faulted and so resorted to
propaganda by trying to massively
misinform the people about his
person. Another disappointing aspect
is how people are sacrificing good
governance and credibility for
religious bias. Even some men who
are religious leaders are now
pitching their tents with different
politicians because of selfish gains
and have joined in fuelling political
propaganda across the country. We
face the same issue here in Imo
State. Where is the love of God in all
of this? It’s disappointing that
discrimination has entered and taken
root in Christendom.
But can we really separate religion
from politics?
It’s not about separating religion
from politics now. The problem is
that churches are now involving
themselves in partisan politics; one
would begin to wonder how it got
this bad. I know churches as a place
where we live it all for God but what
went wrong? Nigeria is a religious
country and there is no way you can
insist on a particular religion only
being in power. I hear some pastors
say “we can’t vote for a Muslim; we
must vote a Christian,” my question
is, when will that end? How do they
intend to achieve that always? Or is it
just for now? APC has a Muslim-
Christian ticket, PDP has Christian-
Muslim candidates, so what’s the
confusion here? And after PDP’s four
years more, that is if they get it,
under their arrangement, power
goes back to the north, what next? I
think we should pray more for the
unity of this country. Religious war is
such that never ends and we do not
want to go there. We shouldn’t allow
these power hungry politicians
destroy the church and this country.
My advice to Nigerians is to look
before you leap, think before you act
or talk. While Christ tarries, let us try
to love our neighbours as we love
ourselves! That’s the word of God
and love is the greatest of all.
What’s your opinion about the
shift in dates of the 2015 election?
For me, it was a huge disappointment
because by now, the nation would
have left the corridor of uncertainty
to the path of moving forward. The
postponement is a big setback for the
nation and democracy but anything
for the peace and progress of Nigeria
is okay! So we patiently await the
holding of elections on the new
dates.

I am telling u the truth that is why u are really pained. Imo state is a rural state I can prove it with pics that covers the length and breadth of ur useless good for nothing state. .lol

hahahahhaha my man dey vex cause I call I'm state village........abeg why u come take am personal nah

oneeast:
It pained you so much. .lol yes Awka is better than owerre which only has prostitutes and brothels as its achievement..lol

Don't ever call that an airport..it is a motorpark come to Anambra and an airport under construction so that u will know what airport looks like. Owerre and parts of imo state has no roads..do u want me to prove it with pictures?

any ways this is the only way u can give ur myopic mind hope ......atleast make dem no say u come from the bush

oneeast:
Yes Donatus Awka is a city and it is more decently developed than Owerre that has only brothels as its pride. Awka is the fastest developing city east of the niger.

Orlu is more or less like Ekwulobia.

Nnewi by all standards is far more developed than Orlu. Okigwe is a complete slum settlement.

Owerre is filled with old ikwerre-type-house settlements, there is no meaningful thing in that town.

You people should reason like millionnairman because he appears very realistic with genuine intentions for imo state to find its bearing.

now u are saying this out of envy and greed ....dis awka dat I know na I'm beta pass owerri ....awka is a forgotten city no road no aiport

Una well done oh

Yes. Buhari is the perfect alternative with the options on the ballot.
- He has the training (schooled in Nigeria, India, United Kingdom and United States).
- Has the Character to lead by example and the political will to effect the needed Changes need without any fear that someone will call and start intimidating him.

- Has the experience to understand when a dubious ideas are proposed to him and insist on a better proposal to be reconsidered.
- He is 72yrs, amazing wealth is not his goal in life. Apart from sustaining his family, Buhari do not have need to be desperate. He didn't when he was young and had the opportunities. Is it now that he have to leave a legacy to his name? Remember when your Oga is not stealing, all those under him will be extremely careful not to used as an example.

- Buhari is not a fanatic nor vindictive. While he will not be kidding around, he relate well with everyone around him. And he is a bridge builder. With the current structure of the the APC, all the geo-political zones have stakes on the affairs of the party.
- While Buhari will be leading and be responsible for the outcome, the success of the party will depend largely on appointing very competent Nigerians to various tasks and business of the Federal Government.

- APC will not repeat the failures of PDP as that will help PDP return to power immediately. And if you look at how APC has conducted its affairs, you will see creativity, and good leadership in play.
- And many more.

I repeat Buhari as President is far a better alternative to President Jonathan. God bless Nigeria.

I hope so

Officer, no mind me. Happy Sunday.

the same to you ooh

GEJ till 2019

where is ti?

egift:


Just one problem = Cluelessness.

That is the very reason:
- He did not prosecute cases of corruption.
- He did not appoint competent hands to work for him, even when it was obvious.
- Took 19 days to even accept #ChibokGirls were missing.
- His decimal achievements in all sector.
- The very reason he was telling us he do not give a dam.
- Reason for not visiting Chibok.
- It is why he dismantled NGF and any one that critically advised him.
- Why you hear "Jonathan Said" only to find out it is Okupe, Abati, Omokirikiri insulting and attacking Nigerians.
- The reason he gave us Fuel increment shocker on the first day of the year.
- It is also why he always form deaf and dumb when there is misadventure in his government.
- Why he collected $1b loan and gave fake Boko haram for cease-fire.
- The same reason he is still defending that Stealing is not an act of Corruption.
- And many, many more....

It is called Cluelessness!

ur points are good but is buhari a good alternative?

I think the best thing for nigerians is to advice our youth to go into politics

But what are the major sins of jonathan

President Goodluck Jonathan has reiterated his
administration’s commitment to the provision
of stable electricity in the country.
Speaking at the inauguration of Unit 4 and Unit
6 of the Egbin thermal plant in Lagos, Saturday,
Mr. Jonathan said he would not rest until
Nigerians begin to enjoy steady power supply.
“For government, there is no going back until
we surely stabilise power in the country,” Mr.
Jonathan said.
“The Egbin power plant and the result shown
today demonstrate without doubt that we have
made a strong foundation upon which we are
building a sound and sustainable electricity
industry.
“Let me restate that we are committed to
irreversibly reposition the Nigerian power
sector as a pivot for the attainment of our
nation’s development targets.”
In January, the Egbin Power Plc announced the
completion of its rehabilitation of a Steam
Turbine generator, raising its capacity by
220MW (megawatts) and bringing the plant
back to its installed capacity of 1,320MW.
The generator, which was commissioned in
November 1987, had been grounded for over
eight years after suffering a boiler explosion in
2006.
Though the company had stated in January that
the rehabilitated turbine would bring about an
increased power supply to Lagos and its
environs, the areas have continued to witness
poor power supply.
On Saturday, Mr. Jonathan restated that the
restoration of the plant would be beneficial to
the Lagos industrial layout and its environs,
leading to job creation.
The president further noted that the
rehabilitation would extend the life span of the
power plant by 20 years, adding that the power
sector privatization had yielded more dividends
to the country.
He also said that his administration is exploring
various options to diversify energy source in
order to remain the largest economy in the
continent.
In his remarks, Chinedu Nebo, the Minister of
Power, said that the company’s new investor had funnelled over
N50 billion to rehabilitate the plant.
Mr. Nebo said while other operators in the sector had failed to
hire or employ any engineer over the past 16 years, Egbin plant
had hired over 100 engineers in training.
According to him, work in the other power generation
companies has boosted the nation’s power generation capacity,
noting that Ughelli had increased to 600MW, Shiroro 600MW,
and Kainji 230MW.
The minister also said that a minimum of 5,000MW would be
added to the grid at the completion of the coal turbines across
the country.

Four weeks to the March 28 presidential
election, indications emerged that there is
growing uncertainty among some members
of the Board of Trustees of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), on whose platform
President Goodluck Jonathan is contesting
the election, over his candidacy.
The reception the campaign team of the PDP
has so far gotten from a sizeable number of
Nigerians since the commencement of the
presidential campaigns for the 2015 general
elections is said to be responsible for the
growing uncertainty in the president’s
kitchen cabinet.
This is particularly with members of the BoT
from the northern part of the country, who
say they are experiencing unimaginable
difficulty in campaigning for the president in
their home states.
A ranking member of the PDP (BoT) from
the northern part of the country who
confided in LEADERSHIP Sunday, said the
reactions of people, especially in the north
to the second term aspiration of Jonathan
had created serious tension among top
members of the PDP who according to him,
are at a loss how to market him or tackle the
situation.
Reacting to the report, national publicity
secretary and national secretary of the PDP,
Olisa Metuh and Prof. Wale Oladipo, in
separate telephone interviews dismissed the
existence of such a situation, saying the
party’s presidential candidate enjoys
nationwide acceptability and would be
elected for a second term in office.
While noting that Jonathan enjoys support
in the North, Metuh insisted that it was not
true that there was a problem campaigning
for the president there, emphasising that he
would get more votes in the North.
“We don’t have any such problem, director
of the campaign is from the North, deputy
director is from the North and we have a lot
more campaign directors from there also.
We also have our governors who have
consistently campaigned for the president.
As a matter of fact, I can tell you that the
bulk of supporters are in the North and we
will have a lot more votes from the North,”
he added.
Oladipo on his part described the
insinuation as most untrue, adding that it
was figment of the imagination of those who
say the situation exists.
He said, “It’s a figment of imagination of the
proponents of such tale. It is most untrue.
We all, irrespective of zone or state of origin
are most proud of our humble,
cosmopolitan, focused, accessible and well
educated president and presidential
candidate and his loyal vice. By the grace of
God and with Dr Jonathan’s nation-wide
acceptability, we are set to beat our
perennial customer…Pa Buhari once again.”
Despite the insistence of national officers of
the party that Jonathan is the candidate to
beat in the election, the BoT source told
LEADERSHIP Sunday that even though the
issue has been discussed among a few of
them from the North, based on the
reactions they have been getting from their
people, it had not been tabled as an official
agenda before the president in all their
meetings with him or even among top
members of the PDP.
In addition, he said that the situation has not
also been openly discussed among the
kitchen cabinet members because of its
sensitivity and the possible reaction of the
president to it or that of his die-hard
backers.
“Let me tell you that the PDP is starring at a
situation it never thought it would
encounter. We never thought we will get to a
stage where our own supporters will turn
their backs on us. We now have a situation
where we don’t know what to do with the
candidature of the president who seems to
have lost a lot of support from the North
and South West. It is even disheartening that
he has lost some valuable votes within his
south-south and south east region –
something unheard of in the 2011 general
elections,” the BoT source said.
He added that since it is constitutionally
impossible to even attempt changing the
pair of the president and his vice, they have
resorted to exploring other avenues of
ensuring that the president wins.
However, he said the keen interest shown by
the outside world to the postponed elections
means that they have to be very careful on
how they go about ensuring victory for
Jonathan.
The BOT member also said most of the
northern chieftains of the party were not
really in control of their states – contrary to
what they had been telling the president. He
further lamented that cabinet ministers
from the region were also not in control of
their states.
“Look at what happened in Kaduna when the
president went to campaign. Those people
in Kaduna told him they are in control only
for the president to go and be almost
embarrassed by the kind of crowd that came
to the Ahmadu Bello Stadium,” he said.
Meanwhile, in Katsina state, despite having
firm control of the state machinery at their
disposal, the state chapter of the ruling PDP
is having difficulty selling the Jonathan
candidacy, according to further findings.
Our correspondent reports that in most of
the PDP campaign outings in the state, little
or no mention is made of the party’s
presidential candidate.
But the public relations officer of the party
in the state, Alhaji Salisu Sukuntuni, refuted
concerns that the party was having difficulty
campaigning for its presidential candidate.
However, our correspondent reports that
when reference is made to the party’s
presidential candidate, the response from
the crowd is often a resounding “ba mu yi” a
statement in Hausa language which when
literarily translated means “we are not part
of it”.
Most of the PDP members have hinted that
they will vote for the party at other elections
but won’t cast their votes for the party’s
presidential candidate in the forthcoming
presidential poll. It is observed that some of
the PDP candidates openly campaign for the
election of presidential candidate of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), General
Muhammadu Buhari.
Views are being expressed that unless
serious fence mending actions are taken,
the presidential candidate of the ruling PDP
may record very low number of votes at the
28th March presidential poll.
But Sukuntuni said, “it is a lie to say we are
having difficulty as we have been consistent
in seeking support for all our candidates
including the president. We are very
confident of winning majority of votes for
President Jonathan just as we are certain of
victory for all the PDP candidates.”
It will however be recalled the angry youths
stoned dignitaries with stones and slippers
during Jonathan’s campaign rally in Bauchi.
They also destroyed canopies and campaign
materials during the campaign. In the same
vein, the president’s convoy was stoned by
some aggrieved youths in Jalingo, Taraba
State, during his presidential campaign in
the state.
His convoy had earlier been stoned in
Katsina when he went to seek votes for his
re-election bid. It was reported that the
windscreens and windows of some of the
vehicles on the convoy were destroyed
before security operatives used tear gas and
horsewhips to disperse the youths.
