I spent the new year at Ogidi, I hate to admit it, but Obi is second to none in road construction, the whole of Anambra is now interconnected with good road network, it is amazing. I guess Ngige did some of the roads too.


It won't be an exaggeration to say that no state in Nigeria has better inter-town, road network than Anambra, and what made it spectacular was that Obi wasn't advertising those roads in NTA or AIT like some states were doing, so most of us that don't visit Anambra often, came to think he was doing nothing.

Please how many snakes or scorpions have you seen on the road or in the woods, since you started living in England? If have not seen one before, ask yourself why. Granted that here in England, people keep snakes in their homes, but it is by choice and the owners take proper care of them. I grew up in the village and I can tell you how many times I had scorpion sting while growing up there. I know a lot of victims of snake bite as well. If we want to embrace modernity, it should be in all it's entirety. We cannot accept everything that civilization has to offer and not think of improving on our environment. The white people especially here in the UK move freely in the woods or forest because they are not afraid of being bitten by any dangerous reptile. Can you comfortably move around the bushes in our villages without seeing all manner of snakes. The answer is no. Our environment needs to be cleaned up and if you want snake, you can keep them in your house or in the zoo, that's what people do here in the UK. By cleaning up our villages, I don't mean falling all the trees or paving all the roads but at least the government should help in making our villages properly maintained and rid it of dangerous snakes. It's all about sustainability.

The teachers that taught me in primary school were mostly from Ikeduru and Urualla.

Even in secondary school we had more Imo Teachers than Anambra in my school then, the former LG chairperson of Ogbaru LGA was an Mbaise woman Chief Mrs Calister Nwachukwu 1999-2002, even as of now in Ogbaru there more Mbaise people in the LG than Ogbaru people then because she filled most of the positions with her kiths n kins from Mbaise.

Sometimes if i listen how these Igbo states insult Ndi Anambra i will like breaking the egg to make an omlet.

Anambra State government owned commercial transport company ANIDS have no park in Onitsha because government sacked them from Upper Iweka open space they were staying before.

GUO a transport company own by Anambraman was prevented from using a space in Upper Iweka as park because Anambra State government banned it, they even won Anambra State in court but the government is yet to heed the court order, if this were to be another person from sister state we know now.

Yet in Upper Iweka, Peace, Enugu North, ITC, Abialine, etc are loading without any harrasment or disturbances from Anambra State, can this happen in those states.
Go to Peacepark, speak Nsukka they will not charge you for loads but once your onye awaraku(Anambra) they will cut your throat with charges.

I have been pretending as if am not seeing or hearing all the anti-Anambra sentiment going everywhere in Igboland, i have been quiet for a long and must go on and spill the beans no matter whose Ox is being gored.

They are just conspiring to bring people that did nothing to them down, one wawa dingbat said during Old Anambra they were dominating Ndi Anambra in politics but the Okpahead didnt remember that Anambra were the face of Igboland in national politics, Zik adopted Jim, Ekwueme adopted Ono, many Anambra like Edwin Umezoke were gunning for speakership while Akwaeke Orizu have been the Senate president.
They said they are wawa people but when you call them wawa they will be scheming for a fight yet those they called ndi agbaenu are going about their normal businesses without blushing with fury.

Its not my intention of writing this but the anti-Anambra sentiment in Igboland is becoming more and more popular among the elites from sister states so i must let everybody know that we know what is going on.

Road marking is missing here. It would have gone a long way in bringing out the beauty.

In the end, everyone suffers, some people may still be trapped here till tomorrow, and they wake up on Christmas Day in a traffic jam. The whole traffic offenders will go free, just to repeat this somewhere tomorrow.

The condition of the federal road is atrocious. Horrible horrible roads. By the way, this is Ninth mile corner, Udi local government area of Enugu state.

Bump!!!! I shall comment tomorrow. Merry Christmas to everyone.

Golden Tulip Hotels group with many great hotels have entered Nigeria and already have hotels in Abuja, Lagos, Benin, Asaba, Awka, and Ibadan.

I am sure they will like such an edifice in the heart of Enugu to manage.

Enugu is a very huge city, although this style is not so popular in the city, we have a lot of adaptations and even some buildings that may look more sophisticated than this building. Most of the housing estates in Enugu has a good number of unique architecture inside them. Are you planning to 'import' and plant this building in Enugu soon?

spyder880:
Who was telling us about some works going on in Hotel presidential?

The only way this road can help to Abakpa is that there will not be any hold up at the usual junction where PH express road joined the Abakaliki express road. Apart from that, the new road is only to cut into the Abakaliki express smoothly.

Kieran Gozie Enechi is the legal adviser to Lagos-based Adada Media Forum, a collection of media professionals of Enugu extraction with a commitment and drive to cross fertilize experience and exposure in order to meaningfully contribute to the social, political and economic advancement of Enugu State and her people. He speaks on issues of interest in the state. Excerpts:
By Chinweoke Akoma
What is your honest assessment of the current administration in Enugu State ?
Something beautiful has happened in Enugu in the past seven years and is continuing. The man in the saddle, undoubtedly, has brought the actual delivery of democratic dividends, home, to the constituent parts of Enugu, a clear departure from the frenzied rhetorics of yesterday. This is a natural progression in the growth process of our democratic practice and the people of Enugu are glowing with joy, especially, the ordinary man.
Gov. Chime
Gov. Chime
I remember the enthusiasm in the voice of a commercial cab operator I boarded while on a private visit to Enugu sometime ago.
“Anyi eji gi kwe Governor Anyi achi” (we revere our governor highly), he enthused. Upon further enquiry on why they hold him so dear as to bring out a unique ring of passion in his voice, he explained that the people of his states never realized governance has the capacity to undertake transformational infrastructural developments as witnessed since the coming of Sullivan Chime’s administration.
Enugu State now is beautiful. The evenness of the distribution of infrastructure and the rapidity of focused completion recommend Enugu as first among equals in that top class of four performing states. What accentuates the rarity is that the Enugu government is quiet about these positive developments, rather directing its steam on target completion dates for more and more projects for public good.
I call this the Enugu example. It is shinning for all to see upon a passing visit. Expectedly, the mind behind this unique kind of leadership direction will
necessarily be imbued with a keen sense of fairness and good conscience. A fallout of this mature approach from leadership heights was the pronouncement on zoning and rotation of elective positions. As you know, this was widely received by a grateful and overwhelming majority of Enugu people across the state but not so for a few with certain interest.
We can safely situate the current political developments in Enugu against this backdrop especially after the emergence of the obvious popular candidacy of Hon. Ngwuanyi as the PDP consensus candidate and inevitable possessor of the onerous, challenging legacies of the Chime administration. Another springboard for the current developments was the governor’s wise decision to yield to the yearnings of his constituents to be of further good use to the people of Enugu in a strategic electable platform in the coming dispensation.
Since then, the few, who felt threatened, have made all manner of desperate moves, including character smearing in an opposition newspaper. The trend is not just sad but tragic. Sullivan Chime is unarguably PDP’s poster person for the successful delivery of dividends and a ready electoral asset in all the composite parts of Enugu today.
How do you look at the attendant positioning of Nsukka people in the emerging scenario?
The zoning of the gubernational slot to Nsukka zone to contribute its quota in the concerted efforts towards sustainable up-building in Enugu is in harmony with the notion of equity and good conscience. Simply put, it is the right thing at the right time. No rational Enugu person will have issues with this except out ignorance of our geo-political dynamics.
On the flip side is this serious duty imposed on Nsukka to raise the bar of excellence set by the sterling performance of the current administration. This is an onerous duty that Nsukka people must discharge.
What is the position of Adada Media Forum on the current happenings in Enugu State?
Adada Media Forum is a collective of media professionals of common Enugu extraction with a commitment and drive to cross fertilize experience and exposure in order to meaningfully contribute to the social, political and economic advancement of “Enugu anyi” and her people especially, the generations closely following us.
Therefore, as a stakeholder, the Adada Media Forum has taken a well considered position in the unfolding events in Enugu. It is only natural that the weight of the forum’s full support will be behind the governor’s breath-taking transformational strides in infrastructural developments and provision of amenities. The Forum also calls on all well meaning Enugu indigenes to massively support, with votes and voice, the governor’s transparent bid to enthrone equity and fairness through the constitutionally entrenched principles of rotation and zoning entrenched in the PDP constitution, entrenched in the Nigeria constitution.
The inner maturity, transparency and integrity which Chime has brought to governance in Enugu eminently presents the state as the next destination for any meaningful field study of the modern benefits of ideal philosophic statesmanship.
As a body, Adada Media Forum joins all other well meaning stakeholders in Enugu to send out loving prayerful thoughts for this phenomenal governor, and pray that the right of divine grace may bring him creative solutions to all emerging situations and produce benevolent outcomes for him and the state.

Educate me on how one can steal billions of Dollars with oil selling at 9 DPB. Thats just the reason I doubt most of the accusations. How much is the cost of production; the profit margin and amount accruable to Nigeria? What was our production volume: I gues it was around 1.5 million per day.

The Naira had stable value, All the roads being done today was done then as well. Every community in Nigeria got primary and secondary school buildings.

What magic did he perform to raise the billions which he stole lets repeat them and have surplus of 50 dollar per barrel of oil we sell today.
