dangermouse: While we the common Nigerians condemn in strong terms, the dastardly attack on Kuje Prison and the attack on our dear and lovely President's advance convoy by bandits, we the common Nigerians urge the president & his aides to remain calm, law abiding & go about their normal duties/businesses. We also urge them not to take laws into their hands as the perpetrators of the evil act will soon be brought to book by we common Nigerians.
Chikeluba25: Granted, Peter left N75 billion in the Coffers and N127 billion debt. Perhaps that’s his forte. He had No idea on what to do with those Billions. He was scared to sanction big projects that will bring Anambra to limelight. All he did in eight ( years of Oil boom and strong economy was save money in the Bank. When he left, he had no much project to his name aside money in the Bank. Perhaps, that wasn’t the reason he became Governor.
In eight ( years, Willie Obiano changed the narratives. He acknowledged that his predecessor left money in the State coffers. Obiano wasn’t an expert when it comes to saving money in the Bank. Instead, a project driven and resulted oriented Governor.
In just 4 years, Nigerian economy went on decline, dollar surged, FAAC and JAAC dropped. While many other State Governors trooped to Abuja for bailout funds and trimmed their wage Bill and workers who they described as redundant. Willie Obiano employed more ndi Anambra into the civil and public service and never owed anyone their salary. While the state of the Nation’s economy was in comatose, Willie Obiano didn’t stop constructing projects and providing succor for the ordinary.
He may not have done so well in urban roads, but he was discerning enough when it comes to rural roads. Many communities never knew what road constructions were prior to Willie Obiano administration, but today, the story has changed. Aside rural roads, He rehabilitated PHCs across Anambra State. He came up with community choose your project initiative and operation light up Anambra State which impacted the entire 180 communities in the State.
In the eight ( years of Peter Obi, he struggled with insecurity, we remember him for the innocent lives of ndi Anambra he ordered Csp James Nwafor to dispatch to their ancestors in his bid to fight insecurity. The dead bodies of Anambra and ala Igbo young youths were thrown into Ezu River and Amansea River, yet the insecurity didn’t stop. Dr. Willie Obiano took the reigns and restored the hope of the ordinary man and would go on to make Anambra the safest State in West Africa for a long period before the recent collapse as a result of IPOB agitation and #EndSARS infractions.
And just like Soludo who said his administration will take off from Okpoko, Willie Obiano did start from Upper Iweka and till date, the effects are still visible in Onitsha and its environs.
In 2014, Anambra had a population below four (4) Million people, but in less than four (4) years, the population surged. There were influx of people into the State as a result of the opportunities that was made available by Willie Obiano administration. Today, Anambra is the second most densely populated State in Nigeria after Lagos state yet with the lowest unemployment figures. You obviously didn’t ask how Willie Obiano did the magic and sustained it for a period of eight ( years.
Anambra IGR was a mess when Obiano took over from Obi. In just two years, Willie Obiano performed the magic and would benefit from the ease of doing business and safe environment he created in the State; Anambra became a leading pack in Internally Generated Revenue. I will still blame the Governor for not being in charge and would only trust a few men with the State Revenue who created windows and would pocket Anambra money; the EFCC must not spare these guys. They were the real virus in Obiano administration.
Willie Obiano sustained the legacy of Peter Obi in Education and even did more. For eight ( years, the standard set by Obi didn’t drop. Money were constantly allocated to Missions to manage schools under their care. This act alone, reduced Private school dominance in Anambra State and returned the glory of public schools.
While you still feel bitter and would want the world to know that Willie Obiano had over 2000 aides; don’t forget to add that thousands won the fight and battle against poverty through that singular initiative. Graduates and bright young population who would have added to the long list of criminals and syndicates in our society were instead absorbed into governance to add their quota to the development of our dear State and in so doing earned values that would last them a lifetime. Many of those are today CEOs, Business developers, political leaders and lots more. Willie Obiano understood so well that in mixed economy and in a society where there are no much opportunities, the Government steps in to shoulder responsibilities. This he did without noise. You may choose to disagree that appointments are not for charity, but let it be on record that the human capital development is not defined by your school of thought alone.
In as much as Governor Soludo wasn’t clear about what he met in the coffer, let it be on record that Willie Obiano left many projects in place that will account for the moneys Obi left for him and these projects when utilized, would yield immediate returns to the State.
Anambra is today an Oil producing State and due for the 13% Oil Derivation entitlement. All were made possible by Dr. Willie Obiano.
While Soludo is declaring the liability he inherited, let him also declare assets he equally inherited. Let the discerning public juxtapose the Assets and Liabilities and be the judge themselves.
The EFCC ordeal of Willie Obiano is a political issue with those he stepped on their toes while in line of service and governance of our dear Anambra State.
Dr. Willie Obiano was rather an introvert who seldom discuss issues and challenges in public media. He would instead take the blames of another’s wrong and shortcoming. If he was an extrovert and microphone friendly, the narratives wouldn’t have been the same, but then, I won’t blame him for things he had no control over.
Willie Obiano deserves commendation not condemnation.
Exactly my observation! I was in Anambra for some months. Obiano was far more better than Peter Obi. Saving money when they are enough projects to be done. He was lucky he didn't save it for an embezzler. @Obiano has made travel & other business enhancing activities easier for everyone. Qudos to Obiano! Obi ws just there
greatseed: I understand you, the logic is an old brain that will add instant value based on expectations is better than a young brain that is experienced around managing a party as a leader, served as a senator in the past, a performance governor, National party leader who built APC from the scratch. Peter can't even manage Apga alone & work through the ranks to build it & be a leader there, which is a supposed Igbo Main party. Jst look around it. Only him has been in 3 parties.
emmyloved: My brother that man is old for crying out loud. Tinubu might have superceded the performance of Obi while in office but c'mon you reason am na. He isn't strong enough any longer. Imagine an old man like buhari is helping the presidential flagbearer of APC carry their party flag.

Nigeria will rise again under the leadership of peter Obi.
If given to that confused druggie
Nigeria will break in two many regions .
You are really a pussy lick as your moniker says it all. All this gathering of 100 pple in solidarity for LP is not d way to go yet, may be if it's consistent, then by 2031 Peter obi might hv a chance. Check facts & records. Peter obi never & can never achieve what Tinubu achieved performance wise in both private & public sectors.

onojaintegrity: Yahaya Bello, the governor of Kogi State, has once again sparked conversation on social media, this time among Ghanaians as well as Nigerians, as the governor's standards for Kogi projects are being used by Ghanaians online to disparage their former president, John Dramani Mahama.
Bello's mobile clinic was utilized in a tweet by a Ghanaian named Kay with the handle @Kwesi Agyei_ to draw the former president's attention to the fact that the governor's mobile clinic is the benchmark required in Ghana.
The governor is currently being portrayed in the viral tweet as one of the best African leaders, making several Nigerians regret not backing him to become their country's next president. The post has received hundreds of replies.
Bello has publicized a number of his projects and accomplishments in Kogi State during the last few days. Nigerians and other Africans consider the majority of the projects to be of the highest caliber and the benchmark for contemporary society.
Due to this, some Nigerians have taken to social media to apologize for not supporting the governor during the primary elections when Bello ran for the position of the nation's next president.
captainamiedi1: have you demystify the $25,000 too? let's start from there
We're you given or did you see anyone who received such amount to vote ? Desist from ff the crowd or what they say if you were not a 1st hand witness! May be your day is coming when they say trash about you, you didn't do & others like you peddle such rumor, except of course you were witness. It is better to keep mute than to talk or say what you didn't see. My 1kobo
Kingpele: Servant governor, what happened in this A PC convention is similar to that of PDP .both bribed delegates with stolenfunds,truly osibanjo would have been a better candidate, because it is morally wrong to have another Muslim as a president after the tenure of another Muslim..this will hurt APC at the polls ,Christians all over the country must vote a party with a Christian as a candidate..I voted against gej 2015 though am a Christian because i believed it is the turn of a Muslim northerner..2023 is the turn of a Christian from the south ..I see another party taking over next year..as for that thief atiku his case is even worse he is a northern Muslim
Quit being religious in all matters! Focus more your attitude & good way to life! We are all imperfect! But God decides victory in all ramifications. I am not in anyway or can talk for God, but I know with God, everything works out for good!!! Either way we all see it good or bad!!!
Please, if someone presses his or her nose and this thing like “Egusi” comes out, what does it mean? I’m implying it is not something healthy, so I want to know what can be done to stop seeing something like this?
Please, I need inputs of most especially people in the health sector or those with experience that can give me first-hand information. Thank you very much.
It's a normal phenomenon, it has no treatment. Composition of fat. As d nose is a fatty area too
GLeesMODEL: Abuja Standstill As Kogi First Lady, Obi Cubana, Empress Njamah,Others Thrilled At MC Bob Magnificent Comedy Show
One of Abuja finest comedians MC Bob who marks his birthday today recently thrilled top dignitaries and the residents of the nation's capital with his 'Magnificent Comedy'.
Among those who graced the epic comedy show which took place at the prestigious Transcorp Hilton Abuja include First Lady of Kogi State, Hajiya Rashida Yahaya Bello, socialite Obi Cubana, Youth Leader of the ruling APC Isreal Dayo, Empress Njamah, Abba Bichi, Sir Uyi and many others.
Top entertainers who performed at the show include, Shortcut, Oga Sabinus, Dan D'Humorous, Destaker, MC Papi, Koboko Master, Efe Warri Boy and so many others.
The First Lady of Kogi State has recently been on the spotlight following massive empowerment schemes she has rolled out in Kogi and other parts of the country targeted at enhancing the living standard of youths and women.
Not long ago, she was caught on camera doling out N1m each to some of her domestic staff and security aides.
- We cant be ahead while being poverty capital - We cant be ahead with insecurity and terrorism - We cant be ahead with debt to revenue at 86% - We cant be ahead with ASUU on strike - We cant be ahead recycling those that have kept us here - We cant be ahead with 12m out of school children - We can be ahead where the accountant of the federation walks out with 3 years FAAC allocation of a state.
What are we ahead of sir?.... we refuse to go ahead, how worse can we go..
Vote right, Vote Labour, Vote peter Obi...
You actually started your comments well but ended badly with the mention of Peter obi!!!
Please kindly highlight what he achieved based on infrastructure, security, innovation & etc when he had the opportunity to rule in his home state or any other parastata he has managed before!!! Simple question pls
The D Day is here . The day Nigerian Youths that have been neglected will storm out on the street all over the country with Just one demand, PDP, give Us Peter Obi or you will lose the election. Is not a thread, it is a promise. The delegates won't win the election for you, the Electorates Will.
Listen to them or you will be going against the tide .
Follow this Thread as we bring you different pictures from different states of the federation.
Let's go
Lekki
. 1,000,000 divided by 100,000 is what's happening! Stop deceiving the man jor. If they make him a minister & he performs, then one can start considering him to rule Nig. He didn't do anything spectacular in Anambra while he was gov.
To whose lost or detriment ? The Govt? or the hardworking, peaceful, good citizens trying to survive in a harsh economy mostly of that same South Eastern entity
He is a piece of shit but he is better than Lee pen. She was foolish to list all the evil things she would do when she became president. E.g banning hijabs, deportation of African migrants etc. Why can't people learn from daddy bubu
It is advisable not to misquote people. She said deportation of 'illegal' immigrants & not deportation of African immigrants.
Again, Nigerians have started talking about the mammoth crowd seen at Eagles' Square Abuja during Alhaji Yahaya Bello's declaration of interest in the 2023 presidential election following the release of a video by a supporter.
It is believed that the governor known for his giant strides in security and other sectors will be provided with his party's nomination form by thousands of supporters, especially the Nigerian youths.
Pscheew! Why are u guys, politicians, his family & friends deceiving this guy like this.
I find it intriguing that you have to buy a form of N100M to contest just a primary leading to contesting with other parties to serve your country!!!
Now why won't this people /politicians steal or make the money back when giving the opportunity to rule ?
Is this not madness It doesn't even exist in developed countries that you have to pay through your nose to wanting to serve your people if u have the will to do so!!!
It is unimaginable & the main crux of our problem is bad mentality to life!!!

years of Oil boom and strong economy was save money in the Bank. When he left, he had no much project to his name aside money in the Bank. Perhaps, that wasn’t the reason he became Governor.
