Enugu state... Sullivan Chime he wears the crown till tomorrow!









For my mother's side, Gbenga Daniel

The People's President for a reason






So passionate about human capital development

Cjrane2:
I have been looking for who to ponder this issue with me.

I’m so uncomfortable with Peter Obi’s policy of focusing on only the northern poor people to provide them with water. In my own hometown of Aboh, we don’t have boreholes and would gladly love to get water courtesy of Peter Obi’s benevolence.

The idea that if one could only be a “nationalist” if one prioritized and solved only the problems of the northern poor. Both northern or southern Presidents except perhaps Tinubu prioritized northern Nigeria to their profound miscalculation and folly. Goodluck Johnathan tried the same strategy and also failed woefully like Zik before him. Peter Obi must understand that Nnamdi Azikiwe was born in Zungeru in northern Nigeria. He spoke Hausa better than he spoke Igbo. He prioritized the welfare of northern Nigerians and willingly gave the Prime Ministerial position to the north and took a ceremonial President role. After all that, it didn’t make any northerner not to see Zik as Igbo and still supported even the least competent northerner instead of Zik.

Someone should point out to Peter Obi that many communities in Ekwusigo,Ogboji, Achina, Umunze, Ogbunka also have severe challenges with portable water and would be happy to benefit from his boreholes benevolence. Not to mention some communities in Opi, Ede-Oballa, Ehamufu, Ezzamgbo, Okpanku, in northern Igboland where portable water has been a challenge for more than 60 years. These people are frustrated that they are neither remembered by the FG nor our own Peter Obi. Instead it is the same northerners favoured in every Federal government project in the Nigeria that again are the benefactors of every good thing offered by even non-northerners like Peter Obi! Please we should stop taking the southern communities for granted!

Meanwhile it is clear that Peter Obi won the 2023 presidential elections. Till date, the tallied votes on Rivers State IREV portal shows Peter Obi won in Rivers State. Yet his mandate was stolen by INEC and given to those who the Godfathers of Nigeria wanted. What guarantee is there that in 2027, even if Peter Obi wins by a bigger landslide than in 2023, INEC would not do the same thing and the Supreme Court of Injustice would cement the heist.

What I expected was a concerted effort to ensure that INEC only conducted elections but cannot declare winners because that role is outside their legal role as an election umpire.

Interesting observation there but PO doing this is not just for his political ambition because he himself has made it a challenge for other wealthy Nigerians to build at least one borehole in a community, how many people have taken up that challenge?

The communities you mentioned in Igboland, I believe each of those communities have at least about 3 very wealthy individuals, how many of them have drilled a borehole for those communities. I applaud the benevolent ones amongst them though...


And for you to know, this is also a political strategy which is now changing the views of some northerners about the Igbo political elites. Before Tinubu finally declared to contest the last elections we all know what he did just to curry favours from the north, donating money to every gathering, embarking on some 'philanthropic' gestures, even his yearly colloquium that was always organized in Lagos was moved to the north just to make them see him as someone who is in tune with them, this is the same Tinubu that once blasted northerners and even declared he doesn't believe in one Nigeria. We can't just wish it away, the north wield some electoral values in today's Nigeria.



I just hope INEC will be reformed before the next general election just like you said, if not it will be another effort in futility.

Good one Kabieyesi

Very sad...





Here in Nigeria, we don't experience much of natural disaster even though we careless about our environment but we experience the worse form of disasters; Political Disaster

Good one

Congratulations to Onne Port




Rear Admiral Ogalla doing a great job

The siphoning of the Lagos to Calabar road was a success

Nd' banyi juru nwabe!

Thank you Mr Emmanuel Ogalla, you are indeed a shining light in this dark govt.

The People's President

But a commissioner earlier refuted the claim 🤔








CORNfused 🌽 govt?

DMerciful:
Why are you defending Bello? Did he pay your fees upfront too?

If you don't know, that guy is Reno Omockry

Just like someone rightly pointed out, no one should take this OP serious, that is Reno Omockry with his sponsored post by Bello

melodyogonna:
That by itself won't improve power. But it also gives the state the power to generate its own electricity. We have a lot of coal in Enugu, it should be relatively easy for us to find investors willing to invest in our power sector.

Basically, it depends on whether the state government can attract investments to the power sector

We have an illustrious son who is already in that line of business already; Barth Nnaji, what stops the state govt from luring him to invest in the state now both in gas and coal...




Do you know that the Geometric Power Plant was initially conceived for Emene Industrial Layout in Enugu?

Make e no fail you though

Honestly, APGA is a big disgrace with elements like this...


I cringe anything I see them. The party needs serious rejigging...

atiku4President:
PO has never missed the point.

So articulated in his speech

PO sees through the shenanigans of the average Nigerian politician, he knows their modus operandi that's why they are fighting him , but PO is now more embodened and ready to wrestle power from them for the masses...





The People's President for a reason!

Afamefuna is a masterclass!




More of such movie which carries the real Nigerian cum African story.

The list is not fair to Nigeria, she should have made the top ten

SoNature:
This is wrong; you cannot shut the school down. EFCC should go and deal with Bello who paid tuition fees in advance. If your father decides to pay your tuition fees from year 1 to final year in the university, why would you call that aiding and abetting crimes? So, it's not the school's fault that Bello used public funds to pay for education services.

In countries like the US and UK, EFCC may not even receive the full amount. The school will deduct tuition fees for services rendered so far and taxes on the sum received. Afterwards, they refund the balance. That's why some UK schools don't refund tuition fees in full if their embassy rejects your visa application.

Wrong as in how?


Why does the law talk about and also charge accomplice?


Like they say, ignorance is not an excuse before the law ⚖. The school should be sanctioned to serve as deterrent to others...







Unfortunately, there is no law in Nigeria 🇳🇬

The school should be shut down for aiding and abetting corruption






But alas, we are in Nigeria where almost everyone is corrupt!

Thank God for their safety

Digitron:
Well, we can also say what we want but he is the best senator Enugu North has produced and the 2nd best in Enugu state After Ike Ekwemadu.

May God bless his soul.

Can you put us on the know on what made him the best senator?

Congratulations to them...







Ume Eno, I came to Uyo last Friday for my Happy Hour but the price for a bottle of beer 🍻 was not happy , when are we getting our Happy Hour Mr governor.

Mba is a monumental failure though

Zombies 🧟‍♂️ in the mud again

Objectivist04:
A former Enugu North senator has passed on

Details will be out when official announcement is made

And you didn't drop the person's name?

Christie171:
Arrgh!!! 😳😨
I tried this last night, the pain stopped immediately but after an hour, it came back with forceful fever 🥵 🤢🤯 If not for pain relief...😰

Sorry about your experience, but you should have continued to chew it... You can take that with the pain relief, if possible, get full treatment for pyrexia (fever) also.
