jbaur24: It is better late than not done at all..

Obi has been consistent with his program, though he may be slow a bit but he remains a moving train of accomplishments.

That he is working even at the tail end of his administration is a novel idea for Nigerian politicians who uses their last lap in the office to mark time and do nothing.

Obi has succeeded in spreading development to all corners of the state. He never restricted himself to a particular place. He made sure that every part of state is benefiting in one way or the other. I was wowed the day I went to Otuocha, Anam, etc, these are places you could not access before but I saw bridges, roads etc. Now he is doing two brand new bridges in Agulu that will access the Agulu Lake Resort, equally expanding and reconstructing the roads from Awka to Agulu for easy access.

If I must say, Obi lifted the state and set it on the path of consistent growth. Investors both foreign and local are now scrambling for land to establish there facility and create the much needed employment. This situation was not there before, but I took creating enabling environment for all these to be achieved now.

ik4life: did ngige bring out any manifesto of his own there,at least the guy tried because he knew that you cannot govern people without a laid down guideline but what we hear from him is that he will come back to finish what he started;then I asked them is anambra still the same way he left it,you know the answer

Ujujoan: There is a clear distinction between the roads built by Ngige and the ones built by Obi.

Referenc - - Idemili roads (built by Ngige) and Aguata roads (built by Obi). I am from Ekwulobia region and recently returned from my sister's intro. I can tell you that my Car went straight to the Mechanic when I returned. Quote me ANYWHERE!

I don't want to call you a liar but i visited Oko and Ndiowu some weeks back and my car is still in perfect condition. Stop lying Nne biko.


In comparison, are you saying that Anambra communities are ALL developed. Has Obi developed ALL of Anambra

In comparison to what Chime has done to other Enugu Communities, Obi stands way above him. Most Anambra communities are now very accessible and we can witness visible developments even in the most rural places in Anambra. Go to the forgotten Ayamelum LGA for instance and see the development there.



Ngige has proven that he is no man's puppet . . . politics or no politics - reference to the Uba family saga. Yea, we know Ngige is a strong man, he cannot be used by ANYBODY. Anambrarians are sure of that!

Ngige has proved that he cant stand on his own ever. He needed Chri Ubah as a godfather to rig him into power and now he needs Tinubu as a godfather too. Ngige is being used by the West and anambrarians are sure of that.



Obi recently handed over all the schools back to the Missionaries and gave them grants to develop them. He wasted 7 years of government without acheiving anything and only recently accepted defeat by giving the schools back to the missionaries to run. At least he knows when to quit.

To bad that all the MDG funds put into the education sectors all these years have been squandered for nothing. Go and ask Obi what he did with MDGs funds since 2006 . . . . He succeeded in awarding the contracts to his friends (don't let me mention names because I assure you that I can), who helped him squander them!

Arrant Nonsense! Obi renovated 90 percent of the schools, equipped them before handing them over to Missionaries(a feat we are all grateful for in Anambra). I don't give 2 fvcks who got the contract as long as the jobs were done.


I agree with you on this, there is no basis for comparison at all . . . Gov Chime has a plan, Obi doesn't!

Don't make me call you a kid! Even constructing roads in Enugu City alone and attracting Shoprite is what makes Chime a great Governor, then i think i am arguing with the wrongest person here. Do you know how many communities we have in Enugu State and have you been to most of them? Damn! Take a tour round Enugu State(not the city), come back here and tell him BS about Chime again. FYI, Obi is already building a Super Mall in Onitsha(Since that is the yardstick for measuring development in your mind).



I'll give him that, if anything Obi is a good business man. At least he uses the State business to enrich himself. Do you know he owns SabMillar . . . or are you that ignorant?

He owns sabMillar? This shows how ignorant you are? Please, are you a trader?. FYI, SabMillar is a multinational brewing and beverage company headquartered in London, United Kingdom. It is the world's second-largest brewer. Jeez!! Such ignorance!

As for foreign donor agencies, I can tell you that the EU (who is the pioneer of donor work in Anambra), came into Anambra as a result of the SEEDS review conducted during Ngige's tenure . . . Ngige had only 2 years so you really shouldn't compare him with Obi who had 7 years (and counting)!
Beer Parlor lies. Kindly prove this with facts!

We all know Governance in Anambra State started with Ngige . . . .
No, we all know our destruction stopped with Ngige. Responsible Governance started with Peter Obi.



If you knew the security situation in Anambra State before Ngige, you won't be saying what you are saying now. Ngige single highhandedly ridded Onitsha of the high crime rate. I'm not taking kidnappers (who Obi has done nothing to control), I'm talking highway robber, house to house robbers, even traffic robbers. Any true Anambrarian knows what I'm talking about.

What Obi did was to give young men guns in the name of Vigilante . . . The other day, a 12 year old girl was shot to death by these brutes over something irrelevant.

Everyday I hear cases of Kidnapping . . . my office doesn't even let me move around town without Mopol escorts . . . and yet you talk about security

Last night my husband and I did not sleep cos we kept hearing gun shots . . . I wonder what poor family was robbed. And we live in the heart of the city!

Bullcrap! I know how security was during Mbadinuju and Ngige! It was so bad people don't even come home for Xmas. Now under Peter Obi, Anambra is such a quiet place to be in. Kidnapping happens everywhere...Enugu ooo, Edo ooo..you name it.

Maybe he trashes Ngige . . . Maybe he will make a good leader . . . But Obi's support has blinded us to his worth as a credible Gubernatorial candidate.

I'm all for the best man winning this election and the fact that he is Obi's anointed candidate makes one wonder . . .

Yes he thrashes Ngige by far and being Peter Obi's preferred candidate changes nothing. We shall never go back to Agbero politics introduced by the Okija shrine master Ngige. We are way past that and nobody will bring us back.




Thisis a lie from the pit of hell . . . Ngige did a lot for Anambra before Obi came into the picture. Which is why after all these years, he still remains a credible candidate in the state . . . have you ever asked yourself why

Ngige did nothing for Anambra except tarring of Idemmili roads. Quote me!!! He WAS loved because he played the victim during his fight with the ubas. Ngige constructed no single road in my LGAs in Anambra for almost 3 years and you are here spewing thrash.



I've said it before, Ngige is not my first choice, Soludo is . . . but Obi out of his own selfish agenda ruined his chances.

So No sir, I don't want his 'continuity'!

We don't care about your candidate, but if truly you are on ground as you claim, then you would know that Willy Obiano and APGA will comfortably win this election. Keep your emotions in check and reason with FACTS!

Ujujoan: This contest is not between Obi and Ngige? And yet most of the campaign materials have Obi's face boldy printed on them . . .

Look at the pictures on the clothes Willie and his wife have on . . . . I thought they would bear Willie's face and not Obi's!

Make no mistake about it . . . voting for Willie is voting for Obi . . . again. He'll serve as a tool to propagate Obi's agenda, and we all know he has his own agenda completely different from the State's!

The fact that's he's a Technocrat doesn't make him a good leader . . .

Anambrarians want to see candidate who is a man on his own and not a tool of the outgoing Governor. What does Willie wan for Anambrarains personally . . . not what Obi wrote down fro him to say!

Please what network of roads are you talking about? All I see are roads built during Ngige's time . . . .

The ones shabbishly constructed by Obi are now a sorry sight.

The Orumba/Aguata road he started working on since his first year in Government is still not completed. . . . After almost 8 years!

Ekwulobia had death traps as roads, same with Nnewi and Onitsha.

If I beging with Awka you'll say to leave Awka out of it . . .

Abi Obi goes through Enugu and sees what his colleague has achieved there in less time than he had?

A state capital should look like one abeg . . . .

I pity you Anambrarains that have been brain washed by this Government!

cashkid18: nna nwanne,those children dey sharp n well fed in their skul uniform..sumbody shud post pics frm d sw lets compare cuz i knw igbos no dey carry last

Zona.com:
Chino chino ekeleem gi. Nice pics. Reminds me of my primary and secondary school days.

Ujujoan: For me, Ngige is the lesser of the two evils . . .

The thought of Obi's 'continuity' for another 8 years makes me want to scream out loud. I'm not impressed by his diversionary tactics. If anything, it insults my intelligence.

A government is supposed to be acocuntable and transparent . . . this Government is NOT!

Giving away cash and Cars like we are in Somalia . . . . Things should be done the right way. If buying the Traditional rulers is how he wants us to 'continue' then I only feel sorry for Anambrarains!

SOludo would have taken Anambra to greater heights but out of his own selfishness, Obi deprived Anambrarians of that opportunity.

Soludo would have stood a better chance if he remained in PDP but Obi coerced him into joining APGA only to have him disqualified for flimsy reasons. Once a con . . always a con!

It's silly why anyone will want to continue such folly . . .

So yes, I vote for Ngige, the lesser of the two evils.

If you have anything to say, say it intelligently and stop mumbling incoherently . . .

bushwailo: U think this is the time for false propaganda.
U seem to be suffering from typhoid.

If Dora is unknown is it Obiano that is well known ?
Obi sponsored Dora and lost in his own senatorial zone.
Now he has come out with Obiano who is way more an unknown than Dora.

Just keep dreaming.
Please you and your folks should not go anywhere near main market because you will get beaten up

iykak47: So having a national conference means dividing the South West? Are you forbidden from using your brain?

Guy, Nigeria does not begin and end in South West.

slimghost: Am willing to place a bet with anybody on nairaland. APGA will comfortably win in the November 16 election. Who has the guts to make a bet?

Antivirus92: Kingbang and bestviewer pls don't insult our sister state enugu because of that refuse heap called freeglobe.

Dkobo: nt my own anambra.

bestviewer: Mercy for that guy. He is a big time clown..

FreeGlobe: insecure fvctard, who is the chief security officer of the state.You have no problem 38 Anambra youths were extra judiciously killed and dumped and no investigation till today! I hope it becomes your plight very soon. How is that I don't have a job and you that have a job is replying ALL my posts. Peter obi is a fraud. hang yourself

FreeGlobe: you are talking security where fresh human heads were found in a hotel, where 38 bodies were extra judiciously killed and dumped in a river, where a former deputy governor was kidnapped ransom paid and he was killed without the culprits being apprehended till this moment until now unlike in other states where kidnappers are most times apprehended with the Mike ozekome kidnap a recent case. Or a governor that built a beer factory he owns to employ Anambra youths in 8 years? what are you if not daft!

bestviewer: I have told you to ignore that boy. A state where a serving police commissioner was assassinated is what he calls safe. A state where cult war is cutting people down in there prime is what he termed safe. He must be one of these area marauders that are taking weed all over the place.

ifyalways: ^ ^ Gbam.
