The flyovers might not be substandard, but they are not fit for purpose. A roundabout under the flyovers would have been a better design, as the present designs are constituting holdup they were meant to address.

Please when did Obi said we do not need an airport?.He was the one that acquired and paid compensation for the airport land of today

My humble piece of advice to Soludo is to never fight Obi again, whether now or after election. Obi has the goodwill of Anambra and he is like Buhari of the South. Soludo should be careful with Obi, otherwise, no trace of APGA will be left in Anambra.

Armon:




My brother you are Right!!!! He can’t forget Obiano… who made it possible for him to be Governor, because of Soludo APGA split in half … but Obiano kept on and supported him all through the way… then for Peter Obi … is a must to put him there. For all reasons, and also for the fact Peter Obi brought Obiano that also brought Soludo… so therefore he is Peter Obi’s descendant.
Biko Any update on the concessionaire of our river port?

GBAM! I hate the way the Obi people want to continuously demonize Obiano in order to claim his solid achievements as their own!

If Obiano was a failed governor as they had hoped, they would have dissociated themselves from any of his projects! It is clear that the Taraba Governor was just lying through his teeth that Obiano told him mockingly that it was Obi's money that he utilized to build the Anambra Intl. airport! Let's face it, Obiano could never have said that. Remember this false statement was purportedly made during Obiano's second term when his relationship with Obi had become so dreadful. To the contrary, Obiano made it public that he actually inherited about N10 billion naira in the Anambra accounts, but had a liability of more than N110 billion naira in debt owed!

Moreso, another piece of evidence that Obiano never told the Taraba governor that silly lie is that he began building the airport in his 2nd term! At that time, he had a very adverse relationship with Peter Obi due to numerous attacks on his person by the former. Not to mention that if Obi had left anything in the preceding 6.5 years before the airport construction was started by Obiano, that resource would have long been used to complete the Agulu Lake Hotel in his hometown, the Onitsha mall, and numerous roads and bridges abandoned at the time!

Willie Obiano is truly a juggernaut! So he decided not to ruin Obi's chances by coming out in public to expose the lies told by the Taraba governor. I hope Prof Soludo will learn Obiano's method of KEEPING QUIET and WORKING HARD for the progress of the people that elected him instead of writing letters. Ultimately, it is Ndi Anambra that will decide if he did well or not as their governor. Not the faceless social media goons that have no PVC!

IDENNAA:


Shut up , you lying bbastard. I remember your post very well and you were staunchly against Obi but you just beginning to realize you are going to be a loser for the rest of your life and now you are backtracking... disgusting fool. You insulted me on many occasion because I love Obi.

As for Obiano, the press are waiting for him....he has many questions to answer. Airport and ICC will not save him. As for calling the Taraba state governor a liar, it shows how desperate you are. Let Obiano counter him

michlins:
Why not ask him for funds to start your own administration just like Obi did for him.

You go about borrowing and taxing Anambra people

IDENNAA:


You are a faceless nobody on Nairaland and as much as I know you are not Obiano's press secretary. Obiano and his press secretary are there to answer questions.

Why is Obiano running away from press.
He is scared to answer two questions: 1) What happened to Obi's savings and, 2) How much did you save for Anambra.

Obi has already proven he saved the money the onus is on Obiano and his team of liars to come meet the press.

Replying you is a waste of time because your are a broke ass nonentity online writing nonsense.

Nwokem gbafuo

IDENNAA:


Why hasn't Obiano and his surrogates countered why the Taraba governor revealed. And where is Obi's savings?

abuzz33:


Busy airport with 4 flights a day? You are a joker. Lagos has over 80 flights a day. Abuja 65. Port Harcourt 23.

You have nothing upstairs and are full of lies and deceit changing moniker like ashawo.

IGBOSON1:


I seem to remember reading where the Taraba state governor said Obiano told him he financed the project from the savings Peter Obi made for the state. Surely that’s better than borrowing and i reckon Obi should be commended for his fiscal prudence.

The airport is surely coining it in, but i think 500 million per month is a tad overly optimistic! Just wondering the kind of sharing formula being used between the federal and state gov’ts to share revenue generated from the airport? I ask because i don’t remember the federal gov’t contributing shi-shi towards its construction.

Whynotthetruth:


Aside what you said, I think he initiated and funded the feasibility study that shifted the airport to that side due to expansive table land, spreading infrastructure etc ...Same reason for which he relocated and built Igbariam campus of ANSU... Remember, Oba was the initial host and hope for the airport before Peter Obi came...

post=119170405:

Peter Obi acquired the land for the airport and he saved money for the state

ChimaAdeoye:


Biko, which taxation? Why can't they publish taxes on buses from Enugu, Asaba, Lagos or Port Harcourt to compare if the Anambra taxes are higher? It is very annoying when people who totally REFUSE to pay their taxes are often the most vocal people demanding good roads and lamenting poor infrastructure in the state. It is even more annoying that the same bus owners refusing to pay monthly taxes in Anambra are doing exactly the same in Asaba, Enugu, Lagos, and Kano! So why do you gladly pay taxes in other states, but refuse to do the same in Anambra? The idea that Anambra is a fiefdom where no civil rules apply and therefore nobody is obliged to pay their taxes must be dropped.

Gov. Soludo should not bulge in his determination to create a sane society where taxes are paid DIRECTLY into the state coffers than using touts and criminals to collect taxes that are never remitted to the government.

Cjrane2:


Las Las, we all should be very GRATEFUL to Obiano for his giant strides in Anambra.

I can confidently say that he would probably be the most development-minded, critical thinker that ever occupied government house Awka. The only thing was that Obiano was not a noise maker and did not use the media to hype himself.

All the same, I am grateful for the magnificent work he did in Anambra state!

Shampoo77:
Only five flyovers in 8 years compared to 12 in
8 years? APC members need mental and psychological check up.

Chikeluba25:
It's good seeing the airport more beautiful day by day. New developments comes to the airport almost everyday. This shows the level of maintenance and attention ANSG is giving the airport just like Agulu lake result.

Pacesetterz:


Obiano was aguleri best chairman and was never fit to be called a governor. He only employed only aguleri backward pple in d civil service but forgot to fix infrastructures in his zone. And now aguleri pple are busy crying all over that they need roads and infrastructure. Obiano was a big failure and that’s why Anambra pple are crying today. Soludo can’t probe the drunkard that installed him there he rather punish Anambra pple for Obiano’s sins. Foolish pple

cally10:


As someone that was born and grew up in Anambra State and did witnessed the tenures of this Governors. This poll is purely convoluted, illogical, off mark and quietly frankly at best idiotic in my opinion. Nonsense poor hatchet job. Lmao Obiano best kor, mbadinuju best in security gbawo.

ChiefOtunist:
Why didn't they go to Maiduguri to ask between Tinubu and Ambode who did better?

The immediate past governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano, has been rated as the best chief executive of the state in the past 23 years, particularly in the areas of infrastructure, agriculture, trade and investment.

Obiano’s administration was reportedly focused on introducing leadership reforms for optimum social impact, devoid of media fanfare that beclouds the real performance of state governors while they are in office.

In a survey conducted by a financial literacy and content platform, Financial Street (financialstreet.ng), which targeted project funding, impact and scale of investment as well as security of projects, the immediate past governor was credited with excellence in the three areas.

Speaking on Wednesday, in Lagos, while releasing the result of the survey, the Director of Operations at Financial Street, Mr Ifendu Iwenofu, explained that the firm decided to embark on the poll to gauge public perception on government performance and project relevance to the people.

He said researchers from the firm went round the 21 Local Government Areas of Anambra and administered open-ended questions to a random sample size of 1,000 persons in each of the three senatorial districts.

Iwenofu said those targeted were adults of voting age, working class men and women as well as business owners and traders that are/were Anambra residents.

“The researchers also went round four major markets in Lagos State, which are, on the average of 83 per cent, dominated by traders of Anambra extraction,” the operations director said.

He added, “Financial Street decided to pick Anambra as a state of interest among three others that were selected. Similar polls will be conducted in Ekiti and Osun states in January or February 2023.”

Iwenofu disclosed that while 79 per cent of respondents rated Obiano above former governors in the area of agribusiness, 71 per cent and 66 per cent said he performed better than previous administrations in investment/trade and general infrastructure, respectively.

Findings from the poll show that about 61 per cent of respondents rated Dr Chris Ngige as number one in the area of road construction and maintenance, with Peter Obi (who succeeded Ngige) and Obiano scoring 20 per cent and 18 per cent respectively.

A graphical presentation of the poll results shows that the administration of Obi came tops in education with 69 per cent. Dr Chinwoke Mbadinuju scored 51 per cent in security, while Obiano got 38 per cent.

“In rating Obiano high on the three sectors, projects that the respondents easily identified were the signature flyovers, the Anambra International Convention Centre and the Anambra International and Cargo Airport. Those polled recalled the former governor’s exploits in enhancing the Anambra Ricebrand, as his administration introduced the first digital databank for Anambra farmers and active situation room for progress monitoring and evaluation,” Iwenofu stated.

On Ekiti and Osun states, he disclosed, “Financial Street is collaborating with development partners to examine the impact of democratic governance on the socio-economic development of Nigerians.”

He said the essence of conducting the surveys after the administrations had wound up was to allow the respondents exercise ultimate freedom to give unbiased answers.

The platform’s director maintained that eight months after the last administration in Anambra, it was easy to reckon with public recollections and ratings of previous administrations, which he said showed that incremental progress was being recorded as Nigeria’s democracy endures.

“By May 29, 2023, Nigeria’s democracy would have clocked 24 years and we, at Financial Street, believe it would be time to do a practical evaluation of various trends and tendencies in states.

“In Anambra, we were able to analyse the data and found that a world of difference exists between actual performance by governors and what the media celebrate during their tenures.

“The outcome of the poll is interesting, because the former governor was not active on the media. Real public perception about programme relevance and impact can only be gauged after the life of a particular administration,” he noted.

IDENNAA:
As much as we all know Soludo is very brainy remember I warned you guys during election the man is arrogant.....lol. Soludo better perform otherwise Valentine Ozigbo will take him out. And Val Ozigbo is a solid Peter Obi's disciple....lol

Soludo, you are the Professor, so do your wonders

onumadu:
The long swords are out for Soludo.
He will regret ever lying against the Lord's anointed.

PrinceOfLagos:
Soludo has succeded in disgracing himself

For every hateful attack on Peter Obi, there is always a consequence

There is this special grace following Peter Obi, all the people that tried tirelessly to pull the innocent man down end up being disgraced

Conner44:
The finance minister once assured us that the exchange rate of the Naira against the Dollar will get to N1,000 by December and just watch how it must happen. All this fluctuations we are experiencing now will surely level out in a few days time.

In another news . . .

Soludo was a very terrible CBN governor. He single-handedly destroyed the Nigerian banking sector.

Why couldn’t he learn from the German model of banking evolution? After a long time battling with their own banks they decided to practice the regional banking model which has strengthened their own banking institutions there thereby making it an envy to other countries around them. Why must one bank have branches in every local government of the country? Can’t we have regional banks that can cater to different parts of the country? In other countries with better financial systems you’d hardly find such a model. Over there you’d see banks that only operate in a state or part of the country and can’t be seen in other parts but they’re customer care and deposit/withdrawal systems are all linked together.

Soludo’s N25billion useless reserve policy killed off 90% of the regional and micro finance banks in Nigeria thereby adding to our growing unemployment rate.

See the police micro finance bank in ikeja that year with steady deposits that crashed. They had trillions of naira streaming in and out as deposits and withdrawals before that useless policy of his came about. When I knew there was something wrong with his policy was when small tiny Standard Trust Bank took over a whole UBA Standard Trust just rushed to sell off their shares anyhow to get the capitalization for their wuru-wuru takeover. Today you see mushroom banks starting and failing anyhow. How many times has Skye bank/Polaris bank been sold and resold within the last 15 years?

I still wonder how Nigeria allowed Soludo who studied Economics to head the country’s banking industry. What a big goof on our leaders part.

Grgton:
ignored! I only respond to reasonable comments

Grgton:
Why is soludo busy attacking Peter Obi ??

Since he assumed as governor, he hasn't been able to commission a single road! How many months now Shame

Pacesetterz:


I hate that obi is d one collecting all d grenade caused by obiano. Obiano is the snake here. Obiano is the enemy of anambra. Under obiano ,anambra became a shithole. Under obiano anambra was looted massively.
Obiano and his gangs knows that if obi wins tomorrow,the environment is going to be too hot for them. Reason why they must pull him down now.

As for solo we give him just two years to start seeing his track records

Magnoliaa:


Yeah, I have gone through it, and I think you are being clever in a very comical way.

Obi was Governor from 2007 to 2014, but you're bringing up a data for the year 2010 alone to nail Obi to the cross?

Shoko brought up that fact, but it seem you surreptitiously avoided that.

I was following you guys' argument and I'll like it if you could address that fact.

Now, on these figures...why are you singling out Obi to haggle when other states are recording 52, 56, 64, 70, 74, even Lagos and Abuja has 48 and 55 per cent respectively for the same year.

So I am forced to asked; Anambra's poverty rate IN COMPARISON to what?

If you're going to drag Obi, drag other and put them to the chopping block. If Obi is responsible for that, other Governors are very much culpable.

EVERY OTHER STATES has more than 40% absolute poverty rate for that year.
