for a live Twitter
chat on Wednesday November 6th
from 6pm-8pm. Dr. Ubah will be
engaging with Anambrarians around
the world and answering questions
about his vision for Anambra State.

pls throw you question to him

tank u sir
i am ready

ifeanyi uba all the way

ngige have pay part of the deal to andy uba before they get problem in 2003

then is better for you to go and do resarch before openning your mouth. he can not be trust with his empty promises

vote the man with god father Dr partrick ifeanyi uba

say no to godfatherism of anambra state:
Ngige and tinibu,
willie and peter
the will share our money among themself


VOTE DR IFEANYI PARTRICK UBA

Initially i said if anambra votes Ngige or
obiano we have not voted wrongly. But as
the elections draw near, i have been
reading alot of propaganda from all parties,
seeking to tarnish each others image.I also
read alot of promises, including alot of free
stuffs promised. Finally i said to myself this
is an election time, people will pretend to
be saints, each time they appear before
the media this time around they will be
prepared. So i decided to investigate them
when they were not all about politics, i
wanted to know how they behave on a
normal day. Because when they win, they
will go back to being who they really are.
For this reason i sneaked up on them on
youtube, to take a close look at their
personality from the past. My primary
objectives were 1,to know which of these
men is capable of bringing foreign
investment to Anambra state. 2, to know
who was more eloquent and presentable
as the next governor 3,to know who is a
technocrat 4, to know who has more
managerial ability, because governance
requires using the little resource available
to you and making the best use of it. 5, i
also looked at the issue of integrity, who
can be trusted among them? Not just by
the people of anambra state, but people
from other states and
countries. ///////////////////////////////
//////////// When i dived into Youtube i
first typed ifeanyi ubah , from the video he
scored very low in my expectation for
eloquence ( he was not so composed and
fluent in his command of english )
Secondly, in the area of integrity he scored
very low( he was accused of fraud and his
statements were not pleasing). I would
not trust him after watching the video and
reading the comments on the page.
Thirdly, in the area of foreign investment, i
dont think any body that watched his video
will be interested in investing in a state he
governs. fourthly, the area of
management, i dont think he will do so
well judging from his own investment and
the resources committed to him by
others. ///////////////////////////////
//////////// Then i put Ngige on my scale.
Is he eloquent and composed? yes he is.
Has he been tested ? yes, he tared roads
and paid civil servants. Now if he did that
out of free will or under pressure i cant
tell. Is he capable of bringing foriegn
investors to the state ? The answer
unfortunately is NO. Why do i say this?
most foreign investors will always follow up
and a persons profile, they want someone
they can trust, someone who can stick to
his part of an agreement. Ngige Rigged an
election, to us it is nothing, but to the
western world it means alot and his
integrity will be in doubt. I am not being
sentimental or campaigning for anybody
here, i am just being objective. You can see
i am talking about yoruba party this or
that. it is insignificant. Can we trust Ngige ?
The answer is NO . dont get sentimental
here, lets be honest. Ngige agreed to
rigging an election, that makes him a
person of questionable character.Secondly,
he agreed with Uba to give them a large
percentage of anambra state allocation .
He did not keep his part of the bargain .
Am i saying he should have done that? No,
but an agreement is an agreement
whether good or bad. So it means he does
not keep to his promise whether good or
bad. Now, people will say he is a hero, he
saved anambra state from the uba
godfathers . But the true question should
be, what went wrong in their agreement?
Trouble broke out when he failed to remit
a certain amount to the godfathers. Now
ask yourself, how much did he pay to them
already before they started having issues?
If the ubahs had accepted the amount he
was remitting to their account, would
there have been any problems? Like i said
earlier, governance is about managing the
resources allocated to you and making the
best use of it. Can Ngige manage our
resources ? Does he have the managerial
skill required ? Has he been entrusted with
anyone's resources in the past ? People
will say he has managed anambra states
resources in the past. But the question is,
do you know how much he spent ? do you
know how much was paid to the ubahs
already before the problem? he did not
finish his tenure in office and nobody can
tell what happened. He is not yet on the
sit, he has no idea of how much we have in
our account, and he is promising free
Education. For someone who will manage
resources to make such promises, it makes
me question his motives and managerial
ability. Finally, He is separated, in the
western world to be honest, nobody will
vote a single separated man into office.
Foreign investors put these things into
consideration. I am not trying to tarnish
anybodies image here, i am just being
objective and opening your eyes to facts. I
want your judgement to be factual and
objective and not based on ethnicity and
sentiments. ///////////////////////////////
//////////// Then i put obiano on the scale.
Is he eloquent ? YES, he is composed,
calculated and marketable. Is he capable of
bringing foreign investment to Anambra
state? YES, As you can see from the video,
he was wooing foreign investors into
Nigeria even when he is not governor. Can
he be trusted ? YES, i have not heard any
allegation against him, of mistrust or fraud.
from the video, whoever sent him to woo
investors into the country, must have
considered his character before sending
him on such a task. Can he be trusted with
our resources ? YES, If First bank trusted
him, Texaco trusted him as the first African
Auditor and Fidelity bank trusted him, i
think we can as a state. Can he manage
our resources ? YES, he managed that of
those listed above. He is still married to his
wife which is a plus. If you have any
objections to these points please bring
them forward. ///////////////
//////////////////////////// NOW I WANT
TO LOOK AT THE CANDIDATES AND THE
PROBLEMS PEOPLE SAY THEY HAVE.
IFEANYI UBAH 1, he is not elequent ( they
said he is not well educated) 2, He has a
dubious character( they said he defrauded
coscharis and others) 3, Lacks managerial
ability ( They say he could not manage his
own business and AMCON took over)
TOTAL = 3 ISSUES ...........................
............................ CHRIS NGIGE 1, they
said he is in a party that is against igbos
and an opposition . 2, they said he does
not keep to agreement( he broke his deal
with ubahs) 3, he has a questionable
character (he agreed to rig an election). 4,
is separated without a wife TOTAL= 4
issues. .............................................
.......... WILLIE OBIANO 1, he was picked
by peter obi TOTAL = 1 ISSUE ...............
...................................... NOW obiano
and ngige have something in common
(sponsorship). Tinubu is sponsoring Ngige
and Obi is sponsoring Obiano. Now people
say obiano is obis stooge, what then will
Ngige be to tinubu ? Now the issue of a
past governor picking the next person .
Tinubu picked fashola and fashiola is not
doing bad. Chimaroke Nnamani picked
Sullivan Chime, Chime is not doing bad, as
a matter of fact, Chimaroke could not tell
him what to do as soon as he ascended the
throne. The Ubas put Ngige on the throne
and they could not tell him what to do .
Why then do we think that obi can tell
obiano what to do when he gets there. WE
HAVE WEIGHED THE CANDIDATES, AND
SEEN THAT THE ONLY ISSUE WITH OBIANO
IS HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH OBI. HE HAS
VERY LITTLE BAGGAGE COMPARED TO
OTHERS.

Beverley Hills Hotel Stadium, Nnewi, Nnewi
North LGA, Anambra state will host a an
all-star match Saturday when numerous
former members of the Super Eagles will
stomp it once again and remind the
expected capacity crowd of the wonders
they used to orchestrate in their hey days.

The stars of yester-years who brought
honour to Nigeria as they made their era in the Super Eagles the golden age, the
unquestioned grande epoch of Nigerian
soccer in the early to late 1990s and mid
2000s have not only indicated interest in
answering the Labour Party’s gubernatorial
candidate for the Anambra election, Dr.
Ifenayi Patrick Ubah’s call to come thrill his
campaign supporters in this start-studded
gate match that will be played for free, and
help get out the votes for Ubah.

At press time most of the soccer super
stars have already arrived Nigeria and were
connecting their flights from Abuja, Lagos,
Port Harcourt and other international air-
ports to Nnewi, Ubah’s home town where
hotel accommodations have been made for
them. Ubah a long-time friend of many of
them is treating them like royalty.

For instance when Austin Jay-Jay Okocha
arrived the Asaba International Airport
Friday afternoon, he shook his head and
identified Ubah’s aides who had come for
him a long motorcade, ever humble former
world-class star exclaimed: “all these cars
just for me? A member of the welcoming
party replied: “You deserve this and more;
you are Jay Jay Okocha remember”.

Waheed Akanni too, who played for the
Super Eagles from 1985 to 1993 was
already in Nnewi Thursday afternoon. By
mid-afternoon, a large crowd had gathered
by the Ubah’s sprawling compound trying
to catch a glimpse of some of the stars
whom they have heard were in town.

Some of them told journalists that they
never expected to see some the stars in
flesh and blood. To them the icing on the
cake was that they were seeing them right
there in Anambra state.

In all 30 ex-Super Eagles players including
Peter Rufai, Aloy Agu, Ben Iroaha, Taribo
West, Augustine Eguavon, Uche Okechuku,
Emmanuel Okocha and Jay-Jay Okocha,
Jonathan Akpobore, Victor Agali, Henry
Nwosu, Yisa Sofoluwe, Bright Omokaro
Edwin Bazuaye, Emeka Izuougu, Tajudeen
Disu, Emmanuel Olisadebey and Kanu
Nwankwo Samsom Siasia and Motiu
Adepoju (the Headmaster) will be in the
field. In fact the 1994 (USA 94 World Cup)
Team will minus just four players will file
out for the match. John Obu, the Under 20
Coach will play his normal coaching role.

Waheed Akanni explained why he and
other soccer stars are playing for Ubah in
support of his governorship bid.
He said that they have decided to give back to Ubah by supporting his governorship ambition in the only way they know how for Ubah has been supportive of many footballers and athlectes over the years.

According to Akanni, “many not know that
Ubah played supportive roles in Jay-Jay’s
and Kanu’s testimonial matches, and has
brought international stars like Eto, Drogba,
Michael Essien, Yaya Touare to help inspire
young, up and coming Nigerians. Ubhah is
a great Nigerian, a soccer lover too. With
him as Governor Anambra will be in for a
golden age – at least in sports”.

LP PART WIN AND I WILL VOTE FOR THEN BECAUSE THEIR HAVE BETTER PLAN FOR US


ebe eselu mmadu

pls anambran i think the debate will still hold 2morrow

Willie Obiano forgot the name of his
Deputy while speaking during ASA US
Convention.

Chief Willie Obiano the presumed front-
runner in the election came across as stiff,
programmed, unprepared and dis-
oriented.

Chief willie Obiano during his speech, was
un calculated, was not able to address the
people on what exactly the needs of the
people of Anambra State.

Being overwhelmed and intimidated by the
people, he forgot the name of his running
mate his deputy and called him DR. NKEM
UMEH instead of DR. NKEM OKEKE.

There was pandemonium all over, Mr.
peter Obi was busy saying that Anambra do
not have much avenue to generate money,
But Dr. Ubah made it clear that we need
to make this money ourself and laid down
several methodologies of how Anambra
can be self money making.

In a clever bid to help Willie Obiano during
the debate, Governor Peter Obi who was
sitting among the audience in the hall
attempted to join the debate arguing that
Mr. Uba made false accusation about his
government which he wants a chance to
correct. But Uba’s team strongly resisted
governor’s attempt to join the debate.

Tempers flared up, Governor Peter Obi
attempted to stage a walk-out, but was
persuaded to stay on.

It is now clear that Gov. Obi has presented
to NDI Anambra his choice of successor
who has got all DEGREES and
QUALIFICATIONS-but lacks leadership
skills, lacked comportment, who do not
know his left and right in politics to handle
OUR GREAT State Anambra.

ASA US convention has revealed it all as
the entire APGA representatives in US and
the great audience were thrown into
shame for the disgrace Chief Willie Obiano
has brought to APGA Chieftains and
Anambrarians he is being pushed to
govern.
To the extent that he couldn't
remember the name of his running mate
and called him Dr. NKEM UMEH.

Information revealed that he was consoled
to take heart that he will get use to it by
the leadership of APGA.

Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah campaign group has done
a great job by picking up the problem
facing our great State and have also laid
down a fantastic strategies of tacking them
which ASA US Convection organisers took a
special time to commend them and also
seek a special and personal time to speak
with Dr. Ubah who eventually got
exhausted and slept after the long debate.

Another Debate is being scheduled in
Nigeria, we are expecting Chief Willie
Obiano to acquire more training from his
boss.

IFEANYI P. UBAH has got it all, from
understanding the needs of his people, the
best way of solving them.

His presentation, his composure, eye
contacts, emotional demeanor,
appropriately well-measured gestures,
delivery of points after points, common-
sense solutions one after another were
very impressive.

He laid out his vision and plans for
handling grave development issues facing
the state: total transparency and
accountability; reduction of crime,
generation of power supply, clear plans to
turn the state into industrial hub, massive
industrialisation (4 factories in each local
government area) to create jobs and cut
down crimes, creation of wealth;
aggressive development of grassroots
democracy through conduct of wards,
council and local government elections;
simplified credit loans for start-up, small
businesses, and less fortunate; massive
investment in education, health, facilities
and infrastructures: roads, water,
sanitation, etc. He also laid out his
numerous charity efforts helping less
privileged in the society through his
foundation.

He also addressed mis-information and
smear campaign against his education,
businesses and partnership ventures with
Nigerian federal government.

Vote Ifeanyi P. Ubah, Vote Labour Party

What really happened at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Parish in Fegge,
Onitsha where Anambra state Governor
Peter Obi and Senator Chris Ngige, the APC
governorship candidate for the state
congregated to worship with the Catholic
Archbishop of Onitsha Diocese, His Grace
Most Rev. Valerian Okeke on the occasion
of a Holy Mass to celebrate
the Archbishop's 60th Birthday with
prisoners?

Elombah.com received different versions of
the clash between Obi and Ngige and the
facts depends on whom you are speaking
to.

Here is Valentine Obienyems’ - media aide
to Obi - version
Obi, Ngige at Onitsha Prisons today -
Valentine Obienyem
Gov. Obi and Dr. Chris Ngige were at
Onitsha prisons today.

The event was
another insight into the character of both.
Do you know that while Ngige was coming
in, when it appeared to him that he was
not noticed, he tossed his walking stick up
repeatedly.
Rather than sit down quietly,
he started shaking people from seat to
seat.
Meanwhile Obi was seated and was
praying.

Ngige was still going round greeting and
waving to people just for them to shout
Onwa and take him to ninth heaven. He
was still doing this while the procession for
the mass was completed and the mass
started.

Angrily, Archbishop Valerian Okeke
announced that the Church is not for
politicking and prompting people to shout
one's praises. At this point, Ngige now
went to sit down.

Haba, what type of man is this?
Here is Chibuzor O. Obiakors’ – Senior aide
to Ngige - version
Gov. Obi Instructs Reverend Fathers to
Stop Ngige From Approaching the Alter
To Offer Thanksgiving - Chibuzor O.
Obiakor
Gov. Obi continues his divisive and very
dangerous religious politics in Anambra
State as he instructed Reverend Fathers at
the Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic
Parish in Fegge, Onitsha, to Stop Senator
Chris Ngige from approaching the Alter For
Thanksgiving Offering.
Senator Ngige had
gone to the Church to worship with the
Catholic Archbishop of Onitsha Diocese, His
Grace Most Rev. Valerian Okeke on the
occasion of a Holy Mass to celebrate
Archbishop's 60th Birthday.

As Senator Ngige, along with his followers
went towards the alter down the Center
Isle, while dancing to the beat of the
Church's Choir, to give thanks on behalf of
the Archbishop's Birthday and Bishop's
Sunday, not less than three Reverend
Father blocked his path and told him to
take his followers down the side Isle
because Mrs. Peter Obi, Chief Victor Umeh
and Mr. Willie Obiano are in the church,
and that the Center Isle, on instructions
from Government House at Awka, is
reserved for the First Lady, Chief Victor
Umeh and Mr. Willie Obiano.

With all due respect to the Office of The
Governor, the Governor himself, the First
Lady, Mrs. Obi and Mr. Willie Obiano, the
Church remains the Lord's House that
knows no difference between the rich and
the poor; the high and the low; the sinners
and the righteous.
In the church, ALL God's
Children are just that, God's Children.
Some ought not to be allowed through one
door or Isle and others through another
door or Isle.
Even as we come down to the
Governorship election on November 16,
2013, Anambra remains The Light of the
Nation that is lagging behind in her Human
Capital, Natural and Material Resources
Development because of this type of
microscopic thinking and segregation.

This unfortunate situation that we find our
dear State in needs Experienced Hands to
salvage it.
The church congregation upon
sensing this marginalisation, exclusion and
injustice even in the Lord's House, busted
into a chorus chant of APC! APC!! APC!!!

They were led in this spontaneous show of
support by the church's Choir.

Ndi Anambra understand that Experience
Counts.

Revealed!
Another Okija
Shrine
Resurfaces In
Anambra
State As APGA
Forces Willie
Obiano To Sign Secret Document…Umeh
To Be Paid N576 Billion If Obiano Wins
Nigeria is going to be treated to another
round of Okija shrine saga, as witnessed in
the
days of Mr. Chris Ngige and Mr. Chris Uba
during Ngige reign as Anambra governor.

An agreement we can report has already
been entered between the All Progressive
Grand Alliance (APGA) candidate, Mr. Willie
Obaino and the APGA National Chairman,
in the event that he gets elected as the
governor of the state.

The agreement [see below] copy of which
was seen by elombah.com reveals that
upon his election as the successor to Mr.
Peter Obi, who has brazenly looted the
state treasury, Obaino will pay the sum of
One hundred and twenty million Naira
monthly to Umeh while he will pay another
whooping Thirty million Naira monthly to
Umeh’s National Adviser, Chief Austine
Ndigwe, who was the witness in the
agreement.

The agreement which was fast forwarded
to the date of Thursday the 20th day of
March, 2014 confirms that Chukwuma
Soludo disqualification was just to pave way
for Obaino, as it noted that Obaino agrees
that his emergence as the party candidate
and ‘governor’ was solely the handwork of
Umeh.

The criminal agreement which is meant to
loot the state also reveals that all political
offices, both executive and appointed
which shall be carried out by Obaino shall
be determined by Umeh and Ndigwe
throughout the duration of his tenure.

Another part of the agreement is that all
members of APGA board of trustees shall
be appointed by Umeh in consultation with
Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu, without any
interference from Obaino.

A plot was also hatched in the agreement,
that six months into the leadership of
Obaino, he shall withdraw the certificate of
recognition of HRH Igwe Gibson Nwosu
(Eze Uzu Awka) as the Igwe of Awka and
give the position to his ally, Austine
Ndigwe.
Obaino was also made to sign that
the current APGA Deputy National
Chairman, South, Chief Onwuka Ukwa will
become the National Chairman, upon the
expiration of Umeh’s tenure.

With this action, Anambra State has already
been sold to Umeh and his cohorts with
ample support from Peter Obi, who is also
expected to get kickback from various
contract executed in the state.

Obi of Onitsha Snubs APGA team, rejects
Peter Obi choice of Obiano against the
wish of Anambra North.

More Trouble In APGA.

(Why Peter Obi Insists on Obiano – Fidelity
Bank to buy Orient Petroleum)..


The Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka
Achebe appeared to have snubbed the
campaign train of the All Progressives
Grand Alliance, APGA when they paid him a
courtesy call in his Ime-Obi palace on
Wednesday, before moving down to their
campaign rally at the All Saints’ Anglican
Church Catedral Field, Onitsha, Anambra
State.

The APGA campaign team, comprising the
National Chairman of APGA, Chief Victor
Umeh; Governor Peter Obi and his wife,
Margaret; the Deputy Governor of the
state, Mr. Emeka Sibeudu and his wife; the
the APGA Governorship bearer, Mr. Willie
Obiano and his wife had gone to Achebe’s
palace for a scheduled courtesy call but
they discovered to their chagrin that Obi
Achebe was not around to receive them in
person.

However, the Ajie of Onitsha, Engr. O. C.
Adibua, a member of Achebe’s cabinet who
received the team briefly at the palace on
behalf of the Igwe, told them that Achebe
was not readily available to receive them.
A source from the palace told newsmen
that Achebe was occupied in another
engagement which could be more
important to him than the APGA team,
more so, when the team might have
missed the time scheduled for the visit.
Another anonymous source hinted that the
royal father was not happy with the
manner with which Governor Obi single-
handedly brought out Obiano as APGA’s
flag bearer, after tasking the traditional
rulers in Anambra North Senatorial District
to produce a consensus candidate from the
district for APGA.

The sour relationship between Achebe and
Governor Obi over the handpicking of
Obiano came to lime light last month when
the royal father threw in the towel as the
Chairman of Anambra State Council of
Traditional Rulers, explaining that he had
other more important assignments to
attend to.
It was gathered that Igwe Achebe like
other traditional rulers in Anambra North
Senatorial District were slighted that after
undergoing a rigorous search to pick Chief
Chike Obidigbo as the consensus candidate
of Anambra North, Gov. Obi made a last
minute somersault on his earlier promise
and personally handpicked Obiano, his
fellow director in the Fidelity Bank and
foisted him on the party barely two weeks
to close of entries of governorship
candidates by the parties.
Gov. Obi was said to have promised the
people of Anambra North that he would be
succeeded by a candidate from the zone.
The zone through a group known as “Olu
Na Adagbe”, chaired by Chief Shedrack
Anakwue and an 18-man committee set up
by Gov. Obi with Prof. Sylvester Anika and
Felix Ekulide respectively as chairman and
secretary, respectively, worked together to
select and screen 14 aspirants across party
lines and Chief Obidigbo was also chosen
as the consensus candidate.

After the Committee’s recommendation,
another committee of Igwes from Anambra
North, including Igwe Achebe and
Presidents-General of Town Unions in
Anambra North, equally confirmed Chief
Obidigbo as their preferred consensus
candidate, but during the APGA primaries,
the Governor was said to have splashed
money on the delegates and requested
them to vote massively for Obiano, a
strategy which worked out as planned.

A source close to the monarch revealed
that the Onitsha monarchs and other royal
fathers are disturbed that after such a
rigorous search for a credible candidate
from Anambra North zone, Gov. Obi
betrayed them and rubbished the entire
process by foisting his business partner on
the party.

Commenting on the development, a
cultural organization, Ndigbo Voice, led by
Dede Uzor A. Uzor, noted that if it was
true that Governor Obi foisted Obiano on
the people, after under going rigorous
search and setting committees led by
Achebe, then the governor was not fair to
the royal institution.

Uzor however advised Achebe not to be
too disappointed by the action or else
people will at a stage begin to interpret his
action as being partisan politics, instead of
being neutral as a father to all and sundry.
