Khalessi:
Too bad her igbo mother didn't teach her how to speak our language properly.

She speaks Igbo more fluently than Yoruba.
Even her songs are more Igbotic.

This sounds like gossip.
Assuming it is true, that is 12 votes for Buhari and nothing else.

Simple solution.
Vote APGA.

Ngwakwe:
Let me tell you the truth, I am not against Alex Otti but the truth is that he is not from Abia South and moreover the Ngwaphobia I referred to has to do with Ancestry and not Locality.

Had Alex Otti being of Ngwa ancestry, his proponent won't prefer him to Uche Ogar.

Isiala Ngwa is not Abia South but Abia Central

So it is no longer about Ngwa but Senatorial zones, it is no longer about ancestry but locality.
Seriously is this all you can come up with?
Take a deep breath and read all your posts so far on this thread and see if you are proud of them.
SMH!

Ngwakwe:
Bros, avoid the personal attack. That said, I don't know the percentage ratio of Ngwa people living in Owerri to Owerri people living in Aba. I believe your guess is as good as mine.

The Ngwaphobia masquerading in Aba and by extension Igboland must be exposed and eliminated, once and for all time.

It is the reality, people who live and work in Abia state are saying they are tired of T.A Orji and anything that has to do with him, you sit in Owerri and say something different, why not move there and face the same problems they are facing? T.A. Orji's incompetence wouldn't have been so noticeable if those he placed in charge of keeping the state clean were able to do so and your man Ikpeazu was one of them. He is the main reason why Orji is regarded as the worst governor so far and you want to reward him by making him the governor?
Alex Otti of APGA is an Ngwa man so your Ngwaphobia crap doesn't sell one bit.

Ngwakwe:
This is no longer about party politics in Abia State but a rejection of a people by the so-called stranger elements in Aba.

Gov T. A Orji wasn't in PDP in his first term

We are voting Dr Okezie Ikpeazu as a political bloc and that's our choice.

You are only speaking for yourself.
A more qualified Ngwa man in the mould of Alex Otti will take over from T.A. Orji next year. Abians and Ngwa people will not vote a man who turned Aba into the dirtiest city in Nigeria and possibly the world.
You are sitting somewhere in Owerri enjoying good governance, why not go and live in Aba or anywhere in Abia state and enjoy Orji and his stooge's governance?

berem:
Peter Obi performed well in Anambra and his stooge Obiano is equally performing even more than Obi. T.A.Orji who is a total failure is presenting a stooge too and you expect Abians to vote for him? someone who couldn't clean the dirts in Abia state as the dustbin man? How can be manage a who state then? Just because he is an Ngwa man,then you're clamouring for him to be voted for?
Ngwakwe,stop playing politics of religion,ethnicity and clan. You should be wiser by now!

Perfectly put.
I have nothing more to add

Buhari should continue to grant more interviews please.
Comic relief!

This is a flagrant disregard for court order.

cramjones:
[size=20pt]In this book Obasanjo revealed that there are 5 presidents in Nigeria in the following order:

1. Patience Jonathan

2. Ngozi Okonjo Iweala

3. Deziani Allison Madueke

4. Stella Oduah

5. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

He further went on to say that President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan comes a distant fifth in the hierarchy of things. He described how weak, incompetent and corrupt President Jonathan is.

Well, recall that Femi Fani-Kayode said exactly the same things about 4 months ago. Did Femi Fani-Kayode help baba compose parts of his book, or is it just a coincidence? [/size]

[size=20pt]-CramJones[/size]

That exact thought went through my mind early this morning when I saw the excerpts.

How many billion and who got the contract?
Paid from loans or state's revenue?

Buhari said he took a lan to buy nomination form, GEJ is using someone else's form to contest,

APC plebs said Buhari's inability to pay for his form proves that he isn't corrupt, I want to believe Jonathan's case isn't different.

Ikengawo:
Hopefully Abians steer away from PDP but idk why that land is curse to be run by fools. This guy has no credentials outside of being a political thug. Anyways, let Abians make the right decision and say no to Ochendo and his boy boy

Just real Peleson's comment above and you will understand why Abia always ends up with bad leaders.
It is due to the dormant nature of the people, they prefer to cry, whine and complain all over instead of making a statement with their votes.

peleson:
GBAM! Only God can save Abia and I wonder why GEJ is keeping quite to the cries of Abians!! Even Emeka wogu would v been better

Must you vote PDP?
You better believe it, GEJ has no interest in who becomes Abia's next governor, he has his own re-election to occupy himself with.

Diamond bank

“We are pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Uzoma Dozie as the new Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Diamond Bank Plc in consonance with the Bank’s succession strategy and in recognition of Mr.
Dozie’s wealth of banking knowledge. Expressing that the outgoing GMD/CEO will be sorely missed, Igwe Achebe extolled Dr. Alex Otti’s enviable achievements in the Bank, describing his tenure as “the brightest years of Diamond Bank’s 24 year-history”. Under Dr. Alex Otti’s stewardship, Diamond Bank made a remarkable return to profitability and has continued to record impressive growth across all performance indicators year-on-year. After writing off toxic risk assets which resulted in the loss of N16 billion in 2011, the Bank posted a profit before tax of N28.36 billion in 2012 and N32.5 billion Naira in 2013. The Bank also saw its total assets rise
from N564.9 billion in February 2011 to N1.18 trillion by December 31, 2012 and N1.52 trillion on December 31, 2013. Dr. Otti is credited with creating the office of the Chief Risk Officer and designating an Executive Director to head the department. He also spear- headed the expansion of the Bank by doubling the full staff count from around 2,000 in 2010 to over 4,000 as at mid-2014 even as he vigorously grew the Bank’s footprints from a network of 210 branches in 2011 to over 265 branches 3 years later. It was also under his watch that the Bank established an international subsidiary in the United Kingdom, in addition to expansion in Francophone West Africa (Senegal, Togo, and Ivory Coast). It is to be noted that the Central Bank only recently classified the bank as one of the eight systematically important banks in Nigeria under Dr. Otti’s watch. “Dr Alex Otti is a fine gentleman with an outstanding career in the Nigerian Banking industry. We are pleased with the time he spent at the helms of affairs of Diamond Bank Plc and wish him every success in his future endeavours”, commented the Bank’s Chairman.

xtanburg:
Otti was forced outta Diamond Bank his hands are not clean, he tried to buy over Diamond Bank by contracting a foreign technical partner. He fell outta favour the same way he did when he was the Executive Director, Public Sector and gunning to become first banks GMD. Abians Be Wise... Another future mortgager in the Making.

Fantastic job he did at Diamond Bank, but twas FBN's Strategies he took there when He couldn't emerge GMD.

Have U asked yourself if he (Alex Otti) is really an NGWA Man? Reason he couldn't make the PDP's final list and hence his defection to APGA, a dead party in Abia where Akomas and the rest could even win an Election.

They have started the character assasination already. People should get ready for more propaganda posts like these by paid goons all over the internet, that is what T.A. Orji does.
Alex Otti did not leave Diamond bank until he bought his nomination form.

xtanburg:
Why would you forbid APC in Abia... To me I still prefer the Candidacy of the APC to the PDP and APGA... I am not an APC man but i know what I am saying...

Who is the APC candidate and how does he compare to Alex Otti of APGA?

You guys should ignore that thing and concenterate on the theme of this thread.
It can always create another thread for its lofty ideas.
Please do ignore it.

Olaolufred:
THE SAME APPLIES FOR ALL POLITICIANS.HOWEVER, THE NEGLECT LEVEL VARIES.IN YORUBA LAND, NO PDP GOVERNORS HAS PERFORMED LIKE ITS APC COUNTERPART.
HOWEVER THEY CAN STILL DO BETTER.
IF PDP IS TERIBLY RAPING YOUR STATE, DO NOT CONSIDER APC, BUT AT LEAST YOUR HOME MADE APGA IS THERE.
UNLESS YOU VOTE THEM OUT, THEY WILL NOT SIT UP WHEN NEXT THEY HAVE A CHANCE.
YOU CAN CALL YORUBA ANYTHING.
THAT IS NOT THE TOPIC.

Your first post was totally off key, this one makes more sense.
Chime performed for Enugu, he is in PDP, Obi performed and Obiano is performing for Anambra, they are in APGA, Rochas was voted in as an APGA member before he defected to APC.
So it is more about individuals than party.
Right now APGA has the very best candidate for Abia governorship position and I believe they will vote for him.

jumu:
does it means igbos did not love there town, why eyeing others people state, this is sad.

Mumu untravelled Yoruba man.
Delta north as a whole is made up of Igbo villages.

ICHINONYE:
Are u from Abia if I may ask,do u want us to die in 8yrs time, cuse death wil bfal us if Orji n his cohot continue in that state,kindly spread the gud news . Thanks

Your vote is your power.
There is nothing to spread, every Abian home and abroad knows that T.A Orji falied woefully.
Vote APGA's Alex Otti, he has a proven track record.

Even T.A. Orji came to power through little known PPA, so there is nothing to suggest that another party cannot win in Abia state.
Vote APGA and save us future lamentations.

Eziachi:
Can anyone name just one Bill sponsored by Ihedioha and was passed that benefit people of his constituents talkless of the whole state through out his stay in that doing nothing legislative assembly?

None.
That is the reason why captain Iheanacho of APGA will win Imo 2015 gubernatorial elections.
If I had my way, even that dormant senator in Enugu now contesing for Governorship under PDP will lose too.

asha80:
that your website is not showing anything.

Remove the last dot.

Bishop4bella:
See your mouth free and fair election. Have you forgotten what happened in Ekiti and Osun state?
Do you know the numbers of military force that was deploy to these states just for PDP to win the states or you have forgotten number of trailers that brought in rice and kerosene.
Free and fair when military force attacking and arresting APC top members in the two state a day to election and election day.
To rule Nigeria is not by force.

The military were only there to ensure free and fair election as witnessed in both cases (you can add Edo and Anambra too). The era of people being threatened by thugs in a polling booth to vote a particular candidate or get killed is gone with the kind of security provided during elections now. I just wish we can have enough of them to go round during the general election.
Only APC riggers and those who oppress voters using thugs complain when they see security men.

There is a whole world of difference between a few party delegates with personal interests voting in a primary election and the masses voting in the main elections.
If the masses voted in Ebonyi primary for instance, Prof Chukwu would have won.
In any case, APC fanatics are just desperately clutching at straws, they keep looking for non-existent faults to capitalise on and give themselves hope.
How does the fact that Abia PDP delegates voted for Ikpeazu instead of Wogu translate to the people of Abia voting Buhari instead of GEJ?
Desperate plebs.

eagleeye2:
Alex is not a Saint...... that's how everybody was shouting Ebele, today see where Nigeria is.
I am not for any party, I am for track record. Give me cogent reasons why otii is a better candidate?

Ebele and Otti have absolutely nothing in common.
Alex has proven himself in the private sector as a great manager of people and resources.
You were the one talking about evil, tell me one thing Alex has done to warrant being branded with such a word.

tawa89:
The perpetual whinning is beginning to piss me off, they keep whinning about TA Orji and PDP's rigging machinery like PDP doesn't lose elections again, the same PDP has lost elections in Imo, Anambra and even Abia before yet Abians go to sleep everyday after whinning. Sometimes I wonder if this is the same state of the great Aros, Ohafias etc... is this the same Abia that revolted and fought against imposed taxation by the Colonial masters? is TA Orji stronger than the British that Abians revolted against in 1929 in Aba? The Warriors of Aro and Ohafia will be turning in their graves at what their children ve become.... Elections ve changed a bit from 2011, now votes are counted at polling booth and pasted there, so after voting ppl are advised to stay back and count the votes with INEC Officials and escort the counted votes to the collation centers, that's how it is done everywhere and rigging is reduced to at least 30%. Okezie Ikpeazu's job was to manage the waste in Aba but the man failed woefully only to be rewarded with the governorship ticket, with TA Orji positioning himself for Senate and his son for speakership position, it is time for Abians to kick out PDP from their state.

You cannot begin to imagine how annoying it is. If the Ikpeazu guy managed to turn Abia into one of the dirtiest states in Nigeria as the head of the waste management agency, I shudder to think of what he will do as governor.
In addition to all you wrote above, people now post the results of different poilling units on social media, so the likely results even flood the internet before INEC's official announcement. The posting of results on social media makes rigging almost impossible.
If PDP wins again, it is because Abians want them.

The good thing is that they are helping us to reduce our population of criminals and useless people by killing them from Thailand to Malaysia.
No more imprisonment and release, kill them all.

Ifeanyi Ararume is about to be announced as the winner of the ticket, beating supposed heavy weights like former governor Ohakim and deputy house of representatives speaker Emeka Ihedioha.

MaziOmenuko:
Its common in states where there's no strong institutions; all the small structures available have been hijacked by the government; vis-à-vis NBA, NLC, NURTW, TUC, ALGON, NMA and what have you.

I am sorry, it seems like you are just giving excuses.
Please Abia state people should not disturb us with their incessant online and offline whinning again if they allow another T.A. Orji in disguise to rule, you guys should suffer and die in silence this time.
I just hope not many Abians are thinking like this anyway.
