Yes but not Elected

IdiAmin1:
We in Anambra are used to such gimmicks. It was used in 2011 elections. No one is stepping down for nobody believe me.

dcaliph:
Proudly an Edo man, Op shey you know also that the Obi of Onisha is also from Bini lineage. Does that make Onisha a no man's land?

naijamark:
Look at this unfortunate wannabe lawyer frustrated by JAMB, an half-baked graduate of Political Science from world number 11,169th university calling me a low life. As sub-class as all you represent. You will soon run out of MTN cheat or whatever you use in spewing out those rubbish. Hater! You hate Muslims, you hate non-Anglican, you hate non-Igbos, you hate 1st Class graduates, you hate all you can't be and will never be! NYSC is over, go get a job.

naijamark:
This thing will drag on till you learn to shut up. What has Yoruba got to do with my definition or any of my previous comments? I intend to advise the OP and at the same time educate @steppin and others. I know Onitsha like the marks on my palm, and I could define slum too.

naijamark:
I'm sure you're too broke to even place a bet. I insist (for the benefit of OP) Onitsha is a slum right from the collapsing Niger bridge to Upper Iweka to Obosi (Owerri road), Awka road nko? Slums all slums. No street beautifications, pitch dark at night. I can go on and on. I forgot to mention the so called biggest market in Africa (main market), don't even go there if it rains. Major means of transport in that town is okada -Bros, you can't flag a taxi because there's non. Shall I continue?

wristwatch:
Lagos, Porthacourt, Abuja is already a developed city/state.

We are talking of developing states

Opinedecandid:
You keep on mentioning 'one this', 'one that' and you conclude that Akwa Ibom does not deserve to be named amongst that fastest growing States in Nigeria. An Intl. Staduim of no mean repute is what you refer to as 'football feild'? The Nest of Champions that was picked amongst the best three stadia in the world in 2014?
Before I favour your prejudiced position with a reply, I think you should answer some obvious questions which should inform an informed position. Do you live in Akwa Ibom? Have you even visited the State in the last 3 years?
If your answer to any of those two questions is yes, then you deserve to be asked the third, who paid you to misinform the ignorant?
Now answer this rhetorical questions: are you aware that Akwa Ibom has @least 3 Public/private hospitality Facilities: 5 star hotel in Uruan, 4 star hotel in Ikot Ekpene and a 3 star hotel behind the cinema you mentioned?
Heard of Akwa Ibom International Airport with Maintenance, Repairs and Overall facilities?
Are you aware that Akwa Ibom has a Specialist Hospital, A Teaching hospital and Several General hospitals? Are you even aware that Akwa Ibom doctors are well motivated with brand new cars and other incentives like special allowances? Are you aware too that medical students, law students are treated to special allowances, like Law school fees, laptops, etc in addition to the general Scholarships and bursaries? Are you even aware that Akwa Ibom is the first state in Nigeria that has implemented the Judiciary Workers special Salary scale? Do u know of the employment of staff into the state services? Have you heard of the 13 month salary paid to civil servant every December, popularly called, 'Akpabiomba'?
Back to infrastructures and job opportunities, my friend do you know that Akwa Ibom has more than 10 Tertiary Institutions, including the recently approved Ritman University, and that about 8of those 10 are Public Institutions?
Have you heard of the deep sea port, heard of gas processing plant, heard of independent power plant, different training and skill acquisition centres spread across different nooks of the State, some public, some private?
Do you know of the facilities the Tropicana entertainment centre is built to house: the shopping mall and others?
Do you know of the cassava, sugar and other processing mills under construction in the state?
Are you aware that contrary to.the picture you are trying to paint, the development in Akwa Ibom State does not just start and end in Uyo, the state capital, but spread across over 70% of the LGAs in the State: Ikot Ekpene, Oron, Eket, Abak, Ikot Abasi, Essien Udim, Itu, Ikono, Uruan, Ibesikpo, Ibeno, Nsit Atai, Etinan, Nsit Ubuim and others?
Let me pause here for now.
Read, learn, admit

firetrap:
then I gladly refuse to take that sort of advice

dave2meek:
Chukwunonso means God is near me/around me...
Dats my name

sanc2s:
Ugochukwu means Gods pride. Not Gods grace. God's grace is Ebere Chukwu- Gods grace or Gods mercy

Whynotthetruth:
My identity isn't the issue here but we've a date with destiny, posterity,truth, conscience and most importantly God for whatever we say, do and/or fail to do.

Denigrating Obi with falsehood and propaganda seem to be a hobby to some people now for whatever reason of theres. But like bird's feathers spread from the top of a mountain; we won't be able to gather back such ungrateful and ill-words against him. How much we will answer before God; only time will tell...thanks

Whynotthetruth:
Emeka Anyaoku; (former Commonwealth secretary-general) has this to say about Peter Obi;
“Peter Obi is the Governor of My State, Anambra, which is one among the 36 federating states. In the most recent rating, Obi is acclaimed as one of the best performing Governors in Nigeria. This is not hear say. Even
recently, Bunmi and I were in the State to celebrate the
Christmas and can attest to the transformational activities taking place in the State under Peter Obi. At 80, this gives me special joy.”


Dear, if I am lying; will this honourable man worldly acknowledged from Anambra state be lying too I didn't say he solved all of Anambra problems, but he laid a solid foundation and took us far away from where we used to be to a more glorious future...He also made a good succession plan by not handing over to a career or desperate politician but to a true professional... God bless Anambra state...ka Chukwu mezie okwu...

firetrap:
my reply to this is still the same as the one you quoted but I'll add a little more for you. people come here and quote passages from the bible to suit their agenda. the bible does not say the woman must attend the mans church, the bible didn't say the woman must do everything her husband tells her even if it is against her belief.

Families like yours are the type where women are to be seen and not heard because it seems that if a woman says something she believes in its either she gets shouted down or gets beaten up.

you said I may not be as lucky as my mother in marriage and I tell you that a good marriage doesn't need luck what it needs is understanding and mutual respect and Gods good grace and neither of those is lacking in my household.

firetrap:
how stupid can one be by saying because a couple don't worship together means that their home is divided.

my parents have been married for 40 years, pray together every night, have businesses together and all my siblings are happily married save me. So you want to say that governor fashola whose wife is a Christian and he a Muslim have a broken home abi.

guy use your brain sometimes, that's why God gave you.

firetrap:
@op please and please it is not a must that you attend the same church as your husband to be but if he insist after you both have discussed the issue and you feel that you can make the switch then for the sake of peace, you can switch. but make sure you talk it out before you marry and not after he's married to you.

I'm Catholic, so are all other member of my family except my father who's Methodist. we only attend his church when he has family harvest and same goes for him when we have family thanksgiving in the Catholic church. not every family or couple can come to that understanding. my dad even went as far as getting baptised in the Catholic church just so he could marry my mother.

Whynotthetruth:
Where were the plans? what measures were put in place? who made the plans?

lots of empty rants in your post that I find it difficult responding to you without having to insult you which I don't want to do again...

God bless me and thanks to his name that I was found noble enough to be hired to defend Obi here...who in your lineage has ever gotten any government appointment even to carry portfolio for your village pg...they are nonentities like you spewing trash and propaganda online and wishing men they can't even confront their gatemen evil...

As you blackmail & malign Obi here for his performance as governor for which the big and mighty in anambra and even masses honour him, bless him and follow him; he's moved on to presidency...who God bless no man can curse...Have you seen aso rock even in your dream olodo...mpama...ka chi foo jare...

Whynotthetruth:
Yes I repeat again, Nocen was comatose with no road even...Making it a university of education was one of the empty promises made by Dr Failure Mbadinuju...

Whynotthetruth:
Peter Obi built the road to the school, got the IT centre there; built about four different storey building and bungalow classroom blocks...hostels and toilet system (they used fly system; some schools call it shotput before Obi came), connected them to national grid...improved staff welfare...solved protracted leadership tussle there etc...

Whynotthetruth:
I came from a background of civil servants...I can count pensioners who are related to me bro...I am no politician bro...I don't dig lies plz...Obi turned around the system that when my mum retired her pension and gratuity was assured and waiting for her within weeks of completing her documentation...

Whynotthetruth:
So how come Mbadinuju squabbles with Obi back then when Obi refused to pay his own pensions as former governor till he has cleared all arrears accumulated by Mbadinuju

Whynotthetruth:
If hiace bus is common and not a substantial achievement; how come I haven't seen them in public schools even in a state with big IGR as Lagos How come it hasn't been that way in anambra since its creation in 1991

francizy:
I'll take the bolded as an exaggeration. Although I'll have to make enquiries myself.

Thanks..

Whynotthetruth:
Is either you are liar or not in Anambra...You said Obi did less in education
1)Who built at least one school block in all primary schools in anambra state?
2)Who gave new hiace bus, new equipped computer centres with generators to ALL secondary schools in Anambra?.
3)Who returned schools to their respective owners especially missionary schools?
4)Who revived the comatose Nwafor Orizu college of education Nsugbe?
5)Who built the new permanent site of Anambra university with roads etc and moved students there This is after Ono moved them to Neni...Mbadinuju moved them to Uli and Ngige moved them to Alor... Instead of Obi to learn from this bigoted tradition of moving the university to governor's town...He set up a committee that selected Igbariam hence he moved it to Igbariam instead of Agulu like others use to do...
6)Who cleared pension and salary arrears of civil servants and teachers?
7)Who implemented the minimum wage increments in anambra...

How can you guys spread hatred and animosity and ignorance publicly without qualms of conscience

OdenigboAroli:
A thread was opened to rate southeastern governors and losers turned it to Obi vs Obiano..
Anybody that is slandering Obi's name will die a tragic death!

And to compare Obiano to Rochas or Chime is complete stupidity. They are world apart; Obiano is an Nnukwu nmuo an Ijele.
