ABOUT KETAMINE Ketamine was developed in the 1960's as an anesthetic for surgeries. It is closely related to PCP. Both are called "dissociatives." Which means that they cause a splitting from reality. Ketamines is legal for use by veterinarians.
EFFECTS of KETAMINE Ketamine causes unconsciousness, hallucinations, loss of body control, and numbing. It can also cause agitation, confusion, and difficulty communicating. When people awaken after using Ketamine, they have amnesia. Overdose can be fatal.
Some of Ketamine's street names are Special K, Vitamin K, Ketaject, and Cat Tranquilizers.
Ketamine is found in a white powder or a liquid in small pharmaceutical bottles. It is odorless and tasteless. It works super quickly, so if someone put it in your drink you would lose consciousness in less than a minute!
hopefulLandlord: Would you be so kind to tell us the chemical that would knock someone out so fast?

falcon01: Fake nonsense 1. The acting was horrible (over acting especially the lady Outside) 2. Which chemical spray would make someone pass-out withing 3 seconds? chloroform takes at least 5 minutes plus you'd be aggressively shaking and vomiting. GTFo with your Low Iq bullshit tape!
Ignorance is indeed a disease, just because you lack knowledge of something doesn't mean it doesn't exist...stop disgracing yourself in public.
SmartPolician: Why that may not easily work in Nigeria is due to our population. Lesotho, according to him, is a country of 2m people with 1.5m registered voters. In Nigeria, we have 200 million people with a voting strength of nearly 100 million.
If this election was only happening in southern Nigeria, Peter Obi would be writing his victory speech by now. Unfortunately, we have unexposed Northerners to deal with - a people who will gladly vote for their son even if the politician would lead them to hellfire.
PS: If just 2m people can make up a country, then Nigeria should be a continent.
Delusion is written all over your face, have you forgotten how APC used social media to preach the Gospel of change and how social media was instrumental to their Victory?
Is same thing not happening now? Hasn't the obedients hijacked social media now?
If population or geography got nothing to do with with the outcome of 2015 election, what makes you think it would in 2023? wake up to reality and stop giving illogical excuses.
You are definitely not a smart politician to me judging from your post.
creolehunt: Lalasticlala seun. How do you guys allow so much brazen ethnic hatred on this platform
I have reported him to the mods, Is this how Tinubu supporters intend to convince Nigerians to vote for their candidate? Spewing divisions and hate? Dude is not even talking about the topic but just off topic, Lord have mercy.
lhordspy: Let me say a little about this game Tinubu and kwankwanso are playing...
It is called Non-zero-sum situation
Non-Zero-Sum situation involves a situation whereby one person's win doesn't really and necessarily means another's person loss, and also one person loss does not really means that the other person wins. Vice versa. Which translate to that in Non-Zero-Sum Game or situation all parties could gain, or all parties could lose.
This is the situation of Tinubu and kwankwaso... It is very obvious Kwankwaso can never win 2023 . I think all this crowd-pulling can just be likened to story of a man who wants to atleast show is political strenght or put his political influence and might on display OR maybe a man who is trying ro pull the greatest political strategy of all time. We call it the Last card method . The one pulled by Aminu tambuwal. But this seems way way different, something brutal and 'Finishing' .
It is 98% sure that Kwankwaso will never move to Atiku's camp at the end. So, that tambuwal strategy cant really work for atiku in the person of kwankwanso this time, it is completely off the table because it will be hard for a certain shekarau and kwankwaso to be in same party. It has always been a battle for supremacy between both.
Since, shekarau is already with the main opposition,PDP with Atiku abubakar as the presidential candidate. That is where, the Non-zero sum situation comes into play. Tinubu winning doesnt mean kwankwaso will lose, and Tinubu losing doesnt mean kwankwaso will win.
Kwankwaso is left with no other option than to join Tinubu's camp.... And that is definitely what will happen at the end. The signs are there, it is just a matter of time.
Now the question is not will Kwankwaso eventually align with tinubu,that is imminent. but the question is What are these guys cooking? What is their game plan?I think Tinubu is going to make Kwankwaso his Last card, i see kwanwaso declaring for Tinubu just at the eve of the election. And that will be game-over .
Jabagan, king of strategy. Just give it to the man.
You talk like a baby in Politics, when was the last time Kwanwaso stepped down for anyone during his years of contesting an election? He has never done that and wouldn't for anyone not even his northern brother and here you are talking about Tinubu.
You guys just keep giving yourselves false hope. Tinubu is distant third in 2023 election, deal with that.
BATified2023: We should run away from a candidate who invest state money in his family business n feign ignorance
We should run away from a clueless governor who couldn’t increase igr for 8 years whereas his antecessor quadruple it n increase workers salary by 15%
We should run away from a candidate who doesn’t care about d life of his citizens that ignored striking doctors for good 13 months
We should run away from a candidate who increased tuition fee by 100% n even made lecturers go on strike for 6 months only to tell us education isn’t meant for the poor
We should run away from a candidate who happens to b the chief security officer of a state but keeps telling us he doesn’t know anything about a 100 people killed n dumped in a river
We should run away from a candidate who went to study electricity for 3 days n later didn’t know anything about green energy
We should run away from a candidate whose kinsmen made it clear he was d most useless leader they have ever seen only to suddenly become a messiah today What has changed??
You should be ashamed all the red flag points to your paymaster Tinubu but instead of you to give reasons and convince us on why we should support your candidate you focus your entire energy on Peter Obi.
Is the post about Peter Obi? No, but here you are with your daily obsession with the people's choice Peter Obi.
Peter Obi is obviously living rentfree in your head.
Advocate500: because the polls are conducted by Southerners,some of you are too myopic to reason beyond sentiment,obi is the most populous candidate down south,you can't take that away from him,it doesn't mean he will win the election, conduct same poll down north, Atiku will carry the day is that simple,the only unpopular candidate is tinubu, reason they are busy turning the polls upside down.
Are you saying there's no internet in the north? The way some of you reason makes me question your mental state.
FalseProphet1: Obi isn't the only presidential candidate, you guys should give him some breathing space...this hatred for him is becoming annoying, and would compel heaven to work in his favour next year.
This I have seen.
It proves he is the chosen one hence the attack, they have abandoned promoting their candidates and now focus on giving Peter Obi a free promo, is God not wonderful?
ganisucks: Bashir Ahmad has released another attack against Peter Obi. He claims that Peter Obi was wicked to opposition when he was governor of Anambra state.
Throwback: We Nigerian youths have turned our back on Peter Obi's deceptive attempt to paint himself as a new politician.
Oga speak for yourself, who are the we you are referring to? You mean the selfish and senseless youths who want to choose between a sick Thief (Tinubu) and a serial looser and crook (Atiku).
Or the sane youths who will take back their county, the movement is giving all of you sleepless nights, 98% of Nigerian youths are behind Peter Obi and self funded, the remaining 2% are rented crowds like you.
Do a throwback on Tinubu Drug Activities then we will take you seriously, do another one on Atiku Privitation Thieving, Why only Peter Obi? Because Peter Obi is your nightmare and your next President...deal with it and have peace.
lhordspy: Just look at what i picked from the news. Brillant, just spot-on....
“Before then, the former speaker had spearheaded a campaign of vitriol and hate against our party, using religion as camouflage, after he lost the vice-presidential candidacy to a better qualified Senator Kashim Shettima”, he added.
No truer sentence i have seen all my life... Dogara and babachir lawal two corrupt thieves that all of a sudden realised they are now christians fighting for the interest of Northern christians.
Even ants and chickens can see beyond their fake as* charade and deceptive,selfish campaign of hates and calumnies.
But ofcourse the ants and chicken aforementioned are wiser than some of our people from a specific region. The region of children of hate, afghanEASTERN. Who likes swallowing every hook, line and sinkers from bloody deceivers, selfish and religious bigot like Peter obi, yakubu dogara and Babachir lawal.
People who believes buhar! died and he was replaced by El-sudani. Very funny empty-headed clowns.
They are now thieves because they left APC weeks ago, how many thieves are still remaining ooo? Nigerians want to know.
femisplash: How did he repay APGA and Ojukwu who supported him to become Governor against all odds and stood by him all through the court processes?.. Such an ungrateful fraud. He has taken his fraudulent proclivity into Labour party in an attempt to siphon caimpaign funds through a private account as against a legally constituted party's account. That alone is currently brewing huge crisis in the party.
You must have cried at least 16 buckets of tears since Peter Obi declared to be President...ehya sorry.
don't forget to buy a bottle of sniper for safekeep till when Peter Obi is declared your President, you will surely need it.
Ignorant Reno Omokri should read the below CV with a chilled bottle of sniper, please read to the end...ok?

*He was the first Governor in Nigeria to legally challenge his wrongful impeachment and was reinstated by the Courts.

FUNDAMENTAL ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE (PARTIAL LISTING)
1. Anambra was the first State to commence Sub-Sovereign Wealth savings, the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa. At a time many other Governors were leaving huge debts, I left the equivalent of $500 million Dollars in investment as well as local and foreign currency, including $156 million in Dollar-denominated bonds.
2. For the first time in the history of Anambra State, Ambassadors and High Commissioners of notable countries such as United States, Britain, Russia, European Union, South Africa, Belgium, Israel, the Netherlands, Canada, among others, visited the State. Before my tenure, Anambra was practically a pariah state blacklisted by the Diplomatic Corps and international development partners.
3. Development partners such as UNDP, UNICEF, the World Bank, DFID, the European Union etc., which hitherto were not in Anambra State started working with the State. Anambra was consistently adjudged one of the best states in development partnership and commitment to reforms for good governance.
4. He was recognised as Best Governor by the Millennium Development Goals Office (OSSAP-MDGs) and the UNDP in the implementation of their programmes in Nigeria.
5. The Nigerian Debt Management Office (DMO) rated Anambra as the least indebted state in Nigeria. In spite of visible and measurable achievements recorded in various sectors, the State under him did not borrow or raise bonds for her various projects.
6. The Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria rated Anambra State as the most financially stable state in the country.
7. The State's ground-breaking return of schools to their original owners - Voluntary Agencies (Churches) on 1st January 2009, and subsequent partnership with the Agencies in Education, saw the State move from 24th position out of 36 States to Number One in National Examination Council (NECO) and West African Examination Council (WAEC) examinations for three consecutive years. This made the World Bank to commission a study, led by the renowned Prof. Paul Collier of Oxford University, on this revolutionary partnership and phenomenal achievement.
8. The State also entered into strategic partnership with the Churches in the Health sector. This symbiotic relationship resulted in a tremendous boost to health care because of the services offered by health institutions owned by Voluntary Agencies, while the State restored grants to the agencies and made available to them more than 50 million Dollars in various types of support.
10. Through partnership with the Church in the Health sector, his Government funded the transformation of -:
a: Iyienu Hospital, Ogidi; b: Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Ihiala; c: St Charles Borromeo Hospital, Onitsha; d: Holy Rosary Hospital, Waterside, Onitsha; and e: St. Joseph Hospital, Adazi-Nnukwu. His Government also built the Joseph Nwilo Heart Centre in St. Joseph, Adazi-Nnukwu, where heart operations are now being performed.
11. His Government won the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (1 Million dollars) as the best-performing state in immunisation in the South-East. With complementary funding from our Government, they used the money to build 10 Maternal and Child Care Centres across the State, particularly in rural communities, in partnership with the Churches.
12. The State was the first to procure and distribute more than 30,000 computers to secondary schools, including 22,500 from HP. The Managing Director for Personal Systems Group HP Inc, Mr. FabriceCampoy described the deployment as the biggest of such projects in the Middle-East and Africa.
13. Anambra State Government provided Microsoft Academies to more than 500 secondary schools, which the Head of Microsoft in Nigeria (Mr. Ken Span) described as the biggest such deployment in Africa so far.
14. The State provided Internet access to more than 500 secondary schools, which the CEO of Galaxy Backbone (Mr. Gerald Ilukwe) characterized as incomparable to any in the country.
15. More than 700 buses were provided to secondary schools in the State by our Government.
16. Boreholes were provided in schools all over the State.
17. Numerous classrooms were built in all the 177 communities of the State.
18 As part of the efforts to turn around the economy of the State, a number of companies were attracted to build their facilities in the Anambra State. A case in point is SABMiller, the 2nd largest brewery in the world, which built their first Green Field facility in the State, which is today one of the most successful facilities they operate globally.
19. A number of other companies followed the SABMiller initiative and were all supported and encouraged under our Government; a good example is INNOSON Motor Manufacturing Company, from which our government bought more than 1,000 vehicles.
20. Anambra State for the first time started close collaboration with recognized government security agencies (the Police, Army, Navy, Department of State Security, Civil Defence, among others), offering them various types of support including provision of more than 500 security vehicles. The improvement in security was phenomenal, such that the former IG of Police (Abubakar Mohammed) lauded Anambra State for not witnessing any bank robbery in my last three years in office.
21. To further enhance security, Anambra State provided at least one security vehicle to each of all the 177 communities in the State as well as various organizations such as markets and Churches.
22. His Administration conceived and built, from scratch, the first state-owned Teaching Hospital, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu teaching Hospital, Awka.
23. His Government commenced the planned development of the Igbariam Campus of the ChukwuemekaOdumegwu-Ojukwu University, including the fencing, construction of internal roads, electrification, construction of the Faculty of Law, Auditorium, Administrative Block, Faculty of Agriculture, Management Building, among others).
24. His Government attracted the World Bank support on erosion - National Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP) - to Anambra State.
25. His Government was the first to do Poverty Mapping in Nigeria, as a guide for the effective implementation of our poverty-alleviation strategies.
26 His Government, for the first time, undertook the aerial mapping of Awka as well as the production of Structure Plans for Awka Capital Territory, Onitsha and Nnewi.
27. During his tenure and with his Government's support, Anambra State became an oil producing State.
28. He built the first Secretariat Complex to house State Government Ministries that were hitherto scattered around the State.
29. His government commenced the development of the 'Three Arms Zone' comprising Government House/Governor’s Lodge, Legislative Building/Speakers Residence, and Judiciary Building with Chief Judge’s Residence.
30. By the end of his tenure in 2014, more than twelve (12) health institutions, including two hospitals, had secured accreditation; when we took off in 2006, no health institution in Anambra State was duly accredited.
31. Anambra State was the first to undergo national peer review, which scrutinised State Governments for good governance, through the State Peer Review Mechanism (SPRM), an initiative of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum in collaboration with the DFID..
He was hopeless for Anambra and never quite turned around the limping economy of that state better than what the brilliant Medical Doctor Ngige did in just 3yrs compared to the consistent Olodo Peter Obi managed to achieve in 8yrs.
Lagos was already a former capital city of Nigeria before Tinubu dreamt to be Governor hence Lagos was an already developed city while Anambra was created few years after that and was NEVER a capital city, next time you are making comparison please use your head.

31. Anambra State was the first to undergo national peer review, which scrutinised State Governments for good governance, through the State Peer Review Mechanism (SPRM), an initiative of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum in collaboration with the DFID..
Throwback: Is it by his promises, having proven that he can promise out of desperation and his words mean nothing besides his greedy and desperate ambition that he sets as his priority?
He betrayed APGA He betrayed PDP
He was silent and unseen during the EndSARS protest. Instead when called upon to give testimony at the EndSARS panel, he went to court to get an injunction to prevent the panel from summoning him.
Where was he as Governor, when all the Awkuzu SARS massacre was ongoing, despite being a friend of the federal PDP in charge of the Police and a close confidant of President Jonathan?
Read this with a chilled bottle of sniper, try to read to the end...ok?

FUNDAMENTAL ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE (PARTIAL LISTING)
1. Anambra was the first State to commence Sub-Sovereign Wealth savings, the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa. At a time many other Governors were leaving huge debts, I left the equivalent of $500 million Dollars in investment as well as local and foreign currency, including $156 million in Dollar-denominated bonds.
2. For the first time in the history of Anambra State, Ambassadors and High Commissioners of notable countries such as United States, Britain, Russia, European Union, South Africa, Belgium, Israel, the Netherlands, Canada, among others, visited the State. Before my tenure, Anambra was practically a pariah state blacklisted by the Diplomatic Corps and international development partners.
3. Development partners such as UNDP, UNICEF, the World Bank, DFID, the European Union etc., which hitherto were not in Anambra State started working with the State. Anambra was consistently adjudged one of the best states in development partnership and commitment to reforms for good governance.
4. He was recognised as Best Governor by the Millennium Development Goals Office (OSSAP-MDGs) and the UNDP in the implementation of their programmes in Nigeria.
5. The Nigerian Debt Management Office (DMO) rated Anambra as the least indebted state in Nigeria. In spite of visible and measurable achievements recorded in various sectors, the State under him did not borrow or raise bonds for her various projects.
6. The Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria rated Anambra State as the most financially stable state in the country.
7. The State's ground-breaking return of schools to their original owners - Voluntary Agencies (Churches) on 1st January 2009, and subsequent partnership with the Agencies in Education, saw the State move from 24th position out of 36 States to Number One in National Examination Council (NECO) and West African Examination Council (WAEC) examinations for three consecutive years. This made the World Bank to commission a study, led by the renowned Prof. Paul Collier of Oxford University, on this revolutionary partnership and phenomenal achievement.
8. The State also entered into strategic partnership with the Churches in the Health sector. This symbiotic relationship resulted in a tremendous boost to health care because of the services offered by health institutions owned by Voluntary Agencies, while the State restored grants to the agencies and made available to them more than 50 million Dollars in various types of support.
10. Through partnership with the Church in the Health sector, his Government funded the transformation of -:
a: Iyienu Hospital, Ogidi; b: Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Ihiala; c: St Charles Borromeo Hospital, Onitsha; d: Holy Rosary Hospital, Waterside, Onitsha; and e: St. Joseph Hospital, Adazi-Nnukwu. His Government also built the Joseph Nwilo Heart Centre in St. Joseph, Adazi-Nnukwu, where heart operations are now being performed.
11. His Government won the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (1 Million dollars) as the best-performing state in immunisation in the South-East. With complementary funding from our Government, they used the money to build 10 Maternal and Child Care Centres across the State, particularly in rural communities, in partnership with the Churches.
12. The State was the first to procure and distribute more than 30,000 computers to secondary schools, including 22,500 from HP. The Managing Director for Personal Systems Group HP Inc, Mr. FabriceCampoy described the deployment as the biggest of such projects in the Middle-East and Africa.
13. Anambra State Government provided Microsoft Academies to more than 500 secondary schools, which the Head of Microsoft in Nigeria (Mr. Ken Span) described as the biggest such deployment in Africa so far.

I'm surprised to be honest because I don't expect this from the Biden administration, even the current US ambassador to UN is a black woman.
But domestically, the Biden administration has shown the willingness to end racism and white supremacy. Some high ranking black men and women serving in biden's cabinet include.
1. Michael Regan, the first Black man to lead the Environmental Protection Agency
2. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, the first Black person in the post
3. Housing and Urban Development Secretary Marcia Fudge
4. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield
5. Cecilia Rouse, chair of the Council of Economic Advisers. Rouse is the first Black woman to lead the council.
6. Shalanda Young, acting director of the White House Office of Management and Budget.
7. Karine Jean-Pierre, white house press secretary
8. Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States.
9. The current US vice President Kamala Harris is also a black woman, Joe biden picked her.
The list is endless
President biden also signed executive order on the second anniversary of George Floyd's death directing federal agencies to revise use-of-force policies, banning tactics such as chokeholds, restricting practices like no-knock warrants and promoting de-escalation techniques.
This is why I'm still a fan of Biden, Donald trump didn't appoint a single black man in his cabinet, he remains the most racist president in US history
Is not a shame that these set of blacks in the Biden administrator fail to use these golden opportunity to end racism once and for all? Why? They are still much in love with the chains of oppression and stupidity.
Being black is beginning to look like a curse...and these blacks just proved it.
HonNL: The 51st session of the UN Human Rights Council (held between 12 September - 7 October 2022) considered issues including systemic racism, enforced disappearances, climate change, water and sanitation, the rights of people of African descent, and colonialism, amongst others.
Obviously, the US and Uk both benefit from racism as a tool of continued dominance, oppression and division.
They so shamelessly pay lipservice that they condemn racism in words and it ends there, what stopped them from matching their words with action with a simple vote of YES to take action against the very racism you condemned with your words?
Bunch of evil hypocritics...now the world knows the US and UK are the worlds greatest decievers and crooks.
This information age has really exposed these western decievers.
trutharena: That was in 2013 when Peter Obi was still governor. The video was taken in 2013 and the Labour Party official Twitter page tweeted it back then.
The man in the video said he demolished their billboard and stopped them from campaigning at Ekueme square while other states like Ondo where Labour Party is the ruling party allowed other party to campaign.
This is almost the same thing Peter Obi did to El-Rufai, told him to go back to the North.
Peter Obi is a serial pretender, a bigot, and a hypocritical man.
What manner of confusion is this? Using that bolded line means you don't even know what you are talking about....nearly cannot kill a bird braaa.
Why are you crying? Is it not the same LP you are helping to cry the ones who wholeheartedly gave their Presidential ticket to Peter Obi who has now made the Labor Party the party to beat...
Name one candidate since the creation of Labor Party that has made the party so popular and a serious contender.
N3TRAL: Peter Obi placed El Rufai under house arrest and released him at the airport with the order that he should go and campaign in Kaduna.
Peter Obi swore with the life of his wife and children that he will never leave APGA, the party that will transform the South East, to a "Yoruba" or Fulani political party.
Peter Obi swept the massacre of almost 100 dissidents whose corpses were dumped in a River under the carpet.
Peter Obi denied Local Government Areas in Anambra State autonomy and refused to conduct Local Government Elections.
Peter Obi destroyed Labour Party's billboards as Governor of Anambra State. That time Olusegun Mimiko was the Governor of Ondo State under the platform of Labour Party which was seen as the 2nd Yoruba party (after ACN) that period.
Peter Obi is an autocratic Marxist ruler. He hates opposition and will go to any point to silence those who ask important questions.
Peter Obi is the ocean from which Obidense fetch their dictatorship and hope of a one-party state - an utopian democracy where an electorate is not supposed to support another candidate.
Fact still remains that Peter Obi is a lesser evil compared to Atiku and Tinubu, that's the reason the masses is supporting him and will make him President...So, you need alot of money and energy to sharpen your propaganda skills...what you typed up there will only make people love Peter Obi more.
No volume of propaganda can bring Peter Obi down, you all will keep wasting your time, effort and money...the masses already made their mind on who to vote for and that person is Peter Obi.
It appears you guys are the one laboring in vain already.
LeoDeKing: You mean Ipob candidate meets almajiri Sanusi Lamido ?
You are free to weep on the below...let me know if you need more handkerchief.

FUNDAMENTAL ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE (PARTIAL LISTING)
1. Anambra was the first State to commence Sub-Sovereign Wealth savings, the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa. At a time many other Governors were leaving huge debts, I left the equivalent of $500 million Dollars in investment as well as local and foreign currency, including $156 million in Dollar-denominated bonds.
2. For the first time in the history of Anambra State, Ambassadors and High Commissioners of notable countries such as United States, Britain, Russia, European Union, South Africa, Belgium, Israel, the Netherlands, Canada, among others, visited the State. Before my tenure, Anambra was practically a pariah state blacklisted by the Diplomatic Corps and international development partners.
3. Development partners such as UNDP, UNICEF, the World Bank, DFID, the European Union etc., which hitherto were not in Anambra State started working with the State. Anambra was consistently adjudged one of the best states in development partnership and commitment to reforms for good governance.
4. He was recognised as Best Governor by the Millennium Development Goals Office (OSSAP-MDGs) and the UNDP in the implementation of their programmes in Nigeria.
5. The Nigerian Debt Management Office (DMO) rated Anambra as the least indebted state in Nigeria. In spite of visible and measurable achievements recorded in various sectors, the State under him did not borrow or raise bonds for her various projects.
6. The Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria rated Anambra State as the most financially stable state in the country.
7. The State's ground-breaking return of schools to their original owners - Voluntary Agencies (Churches) on 1st January 2009, and subsequent partnership with the Agencies in Education, saw the State move from 24th position out of 36 States to Number One in National Examination Council (NECO) and West African Examination Council (WAEC) examinations for three consecutive years. This made the World Bank to commission a study, led by the renowned Prof. Paul Collier of Oxford University, on this revolutionary partnership and phenomenal achievement.
8. The State also entered into strategic partnership with the Churches in the Health sector. This symbiotic relationship resulted in a tremendous boost to health care because of the services offered by health institutions owned by Voluntary Agencies, while the State restored grants to the agencies and made available to them more than 50 million Dollars in various types of support.
10. Through partnership with the Church in the Health sector, his Government funded the transformation of -:
a: Iyienu Hospital, Ogidi; b: Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Ihiala; c: St Charles Borromeo Hospital, Onitsha; d: Holy Rosary Hospital, Waterside, Onitsha; and e: St. Joseph Hospital, Adazi-Nnukwu. His Government also built the Joseph Nwilo Heart Centre in St. Joseph, Adazi-Nnukwu, where heart operations are now being performed.
11. His Government won the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (1 Million dollars) as the best-performing state in immunisation in the South-East. With complementary funding from our Government, they used the money to build 10 Maternal and Child Care Centres across the State, particularly in rural communities, in partnership with the Churches.
12. The State was the first to procure and distribute more than 30,000 computers to secondary schools, including 22,500 from HP. The Managing Director for Personal Systems Group HP Inc, Mr. FabriceCampoy described the deployment as the biggest of such projects in the Middle-East and Africa.
13. Anambra State Government provided Microsoft Academies to more than 500 secondary schools, which the Head of Microsoft in Nigeria (Mr. Ken Span) described as the biggest such deployment in Africa so far.
14. The State provided Internet access to more than 500 secondary schools, which the CEO of Galaxy Backbone (Mr. Gerald Ilukwe) characterized as incomparable to any in the country.
15. More than 700 buses were provided to secondary schools in the State by our Government.
16. Boreholes were provided in schools all over the State.
17. Numerous classrooms were built in all the 177 communities of the State.
18 As part of the efforts to turn around the economy of the State, a number of companies were attracted to build their facilities in the Anambra State. A case in point is SABMiller, the 2nd largest brewery in the world, which built their first Green Field facility in the State, which is today one of the most successful facilities they operate globally.
19. A number of other companies followed the SABMiller initiative and were all supported and encouraged under our Government; a good example is INNOSON Motor Manufacturing Company, from which our government bought more than 1,000 vehicles.
20. Anambra State for the first time started close collaboration with recognized government security agencies (the Police, Army, Navy, Department of State Security, Civil Defence, among others), offering them various types of support including provision of more than 500 security vehicles. The improvement in security was phenomenal, such that the former IG of Police (Abubakar Mohammed) lauded Anambra State for not witnessing any bank robbery in my last three years in office.
21. To further enhance security, Anambra State provided at least one security vehicle to each of all the 177 communities in the State as well as various organizations such as markets and Churches.
22. His Administration conceived and built, from scratch, the first state-owned Teaching Hospital, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu teaching Hospital, Awka.
23. His Government commenced the planned development of the Igbariam Campus of the ChukwuemekaOdumegwu-Ojukwu University, including the fencing, construction of internal roads, electrification, construction of the Faculty of Law, Auditorium, Administrative Block, Faculty of Agriculture, Management Building, among others).
24. His Government attracted the World Bank support on erosion - National Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP) - to Anambra State.
25. His Government was the first to do Poverty Mapping in Nigeria, as a guide for the effective implementation of our poverty-alleviation strategies.
26 His Government, for the first time, undertook the aerial mapping of Awka as well as the production of Structure Plans for Awka Capital Territory, Onitsha and Nnewi.
27. During his tenure and with his Government's support, Anambra State became an oil producing State.
28. He built the first Secretariat Complex to house State Government Ministries that were hitherto scattered around the State.
29. His government commenced the development of the 'Three Arms Zone' comprising Government House/Governor’s Lodge, Legislative Building/Speakers Residence, and Judiciary Building with Chief Judge’s Residence.
30. By the end of his tenure in 2014, more than twelve (12) health institutions, including two hospitals, had secured accreditation; when we took off in 2006, no health institution in Anambra State was duly accredited.
31. Anambra State was the first to undergo national peer review, which scrutinised State Governments for good governance, through the State Peer Review Mechanism (SPRM), an initiative of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum in collaboration with the DFID..
Lp is low budget PDP and failure( PDP) begets failure (LP).
Nobody, I repeat, NO NIGERIAN should take both HE Atiku of PDP and his former running mate, HE Obi of the mushroom party, serious on their vote splitting battle in Igboland.
SW, NW, NE, NC and some parts of SS are already in the kitty for Asiwaju Tinubu so PDP and its baby should stop disturbing Nigerians with their puerile and shameful roforofo market square fight.
Chew on this and don't chew alone, you might need therapy..
