The electioneering period has come and gone in grand style, and now is the time for good governance_Hon Oninna Onwubuariri.
Hon. Engr Obinna Kingsley Onwubuariri is by grace, the youngest Federal house member, representing ISIALA MBANO/ ONUIMO/ OKIGWE Federal Constituency in the Federal House of Representatives. He's a renowned business mogul with interest in Importing, Retailing, Hotel, Real estate and Building. He defeated Hon Matthew Omegara and Mama Sure-P (Mrs Princess Mirian).
Recently, his office pulled a massive win, when he won the tribunal case against him. It could also be remembered that this case has constricted the level of progress this young man has in stock for Okigwe Northerners. Notwithstanding the parity between part lines, he has risen above hate, by helping all and sundry who come to him with problems.
Today, being the 2nd day of November 2015, Hon Obinna toured the three (3) local governments under the umbrella of his constituency.
1) VISIT TO THE ABANDONED COMMUNITY NTA SERVICE, OKIGWE
The Project, which was sited at Okigwe LGA, has been in moribund since seven (7) years now, following the refusal of past administrations to attend to the primary needs of this Television transmitting station. The management of NTA OKIGWE, led by Obi Okoro was seen smiling when the young, vibrant lawmaker walked into their office, because he's well known as a problem solver. The manager of the branch, Mr Obi Okoro narrated the ordeals the station pass through in the hands of hoodlums who vandalize their properties and cart away with them, and the absence of Federal support to them. He furthered by showing the young House member around, where pressing issues like the replacement of Generating sets, provision of Transmitters and the provision of electricity to the "NEWS" HOUSE was given “green sleeks”. Hon Obinna, noted all the requirements enlisted by the NTA director and promised to do all in his power to make sure that the project is finished before February 2016.

2) VISIT TO THE ABANDONED SILO PROJECT, SITED AT EZINNACHI, OKIGWE LGA, IMO STATE.
Hon. Obinna's second visit, was another abandoned project located in Ezinnachi Community in Okigwe LGA, Imo state. A Silo storage project, which store about 100 Metric Tons of grains. The said project was started by H/E Musa Yaradua, who died before the project could be completed. This project can take as much as 4.7billion and 2.6billion has been disbured to the Company operating it. The company’s branch manager thanked the locals of Ezinnachi for their Hospitality for the past five years . The young, development hungry House member, Hon. Obinna Onwubuariri, promised to bring up the issue of this abandoned project to the proper channels of the Federal government, in order for adequate funding and mobilization to be made. He furthered by exploring the large project, which sits in almost 15Hectares of Land.

3) VISIT TO CASSAVA PROCESSING MILL IN ONUIMO LGA.
Hon Engr Obinna Onwubuariri also visited another project, that was abandoned by the past administration. Here, he promised to build a road for them, because of the unavailability of goods roads in the area. He will begin the roads once the rains stops coming. The garri mill, which can provide Okigwe Northerners indigents with a 15metric ton of Garri, has also received resuscitation as the Honorable member asked the assigned company to begin work immediately inorder to complete it before Christmas .
This and many more is what this vibrant young lawmaker has in stock fir Okigwe Northerners.

The Chairman,
Economic and Financial
Crime Commission (EFCC)
Abuja.
Sir,
COMPLAINT AGAINST THE ILLEGAL PROCUREMENT, FRAUDULENT DIVERSION, STEALING AND MISAPPROPRIATION OF THE SUM OF N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION, TWO MILLION NAIRA) ACCRUING FROM N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) LOANS TO THE TWENTY SEVEN LOCAL GOVERNMENT COUNCILS IN IMO STATE, FROM ZENITH BANK PLC
COMPLAINT
1. It has come to our notice that between September, 2014 to December, 2014, Imo State government who overseas the affairs of the twenty seven local government councils in the state, fraudulently procured a loan of N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION AND TWO MILLION NAIRA) accruing from N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) obtained from MESSRS ZENITH BANK PLC as loans to the twenty seven local government councils in Imo State, respectively.
2. Sometime between September-December 2014, the immediate past Imo State Commissioner, for Local Government Affairs, Professor ADAOBI OBASI, who currently is the present Acting Vice Chancellor of Imo State University, constrained the 27 Transition Committee Chairmen of 27 Local Government Councils of Imo State and their Director’s of Administration and General Services DAGS to bring their various LGA letter headed papers to Owerri.
3. The 27 Transition Committee Chairmen and their DAGS were invited by Professor ADAOBI OBASI who incidentally is a relation of the Governor and serving as Commissioner for Local Government affairs at the time, to come to her office. The reason was because the TC Chairmen and their DAGS are the two signatories to the local government councils.
4. Upon bringing their letter headed papers, the 27 TC Chairmen and their DAGS’ were constrained to sign a Finance and General Purposes Committee (F&GPC) Resolution for a loan request drafted by the office of the Commissioner for Local Government Affairs, Professor ADAOBI OBASI.
5. The Finance and General Purposes Committee (F&GPC) of the twenty seven local government councils in Imo State, never met and at no time did they make a Resolution for a loan request of N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) as presented to Messrs Zenith Bank PLC.
6. Upon presenting the forged Finance and General Purposes Committee (F&GPC) Resolution for a loan request to Messrs Zenith Bank PLC, the state government procured the sum of N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) respectively on behalf of the 27 local government councils in Imo State, amounting to N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION AND TWO MILLION NAIRA).
7. Despite using the allocation of the 27 local government councils in Imo State as collateral not even a kobo of the N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) got to the various Accounts of the 27 local government councils and none was disbursed by the Council.
8. The entire N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION AND TWO MILLION NAIRA) were moved into a specially dedicated Zenith Bank Account only accessible to the Governor of Imo State and the management of Zenith Bank PLC made the account a top secret.
9. As a reward for signing the forged Finance and General Purposes Committee (F&GPC) Resolution for the procurement of the loan former TC Chairmen were induced with sums between ranging from N50Million to N85 Million.
10. To retire the monies given to them, the former TC Chairmen embarked upon a project of the renovation of their various LGA secretariats.
11. The monies for the renovation of the 27 LGA Secretariats in Imo State were paid directly into the private accounts of the former 27 TC Chairmen by Professor Adaobi Obasi’s office. None of the funds hit the various Accounts of the local government councils, no tenders were conducted and the LGA Treasurers and DAGS did not play any role in the execution of the contracts for the renovation of the 27 local government secretariats.
12. The Governor and his entire administration made the details of these N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION AND TWO MILLION NAIRA) loan a top secret and have used up the funds the way they deemed fit even with the tacit connivance of the Speaker and members of the 7th Imo House of Assembly.
13. There was no day the procurement of N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) formed part of the deliberation of the 7th Imo House of Assembly in line with Section 7 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended, which empowered the House of Assembly to make laws for the smooth governance of the local government councils.
14. Since the inception of this administration, the various local government councils in Imo State have not executed any project directly, hence they did not need N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) loans.
15. Worst still is the fact that the local government Council officials never presented any project to the management of Zenith Bank PLC for which they sought to borrow a N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) loan in December, 2014.
16. It is clear that the Governor of Imo State, OWELLE ANAYO ROCHAS OKOROCHA merely used the 27 local government council Allocations as collateral for the procurement of N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION AND TWO MILLION NAIRA) he collected and squandered for his own private business. A situation that has made Imo local government councils incapable of paying their staff salaries up to date.
17. The N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) Zenith Bank loans granted in December 2014 was against the CBN regulation that Banks don’t grant loans to state governments six months to transition period.
18. Almost all the local government councils in Imo State have an average of N30 Million wage bill, but consequent upon the bourgeoning loans forced upon them by Governor Rochas Okorocha, Imo local government councils have become a pawn to Zenith Bank PLC and can no longer pay their wage bills. Even today the workers are owed June and July salaries, while the state has slashed the salaries of some departments, citing bankruptcy of the local government councils as reason for its inability to pay.
19. That in mid July, 2015, which is just few weeks ago, Imo local government councils received a total of N5,365,201,309.29 (FIVE BILLION, THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE MILLION, TWO HUNDRED AND ONE THOUSAND, THREE HUNDRED AND NINE NAIRA, TWENTY NINE KOBO) as revenue accruing from the Federal Allocation Account and none of the said monies entered the account of the various local government councils. Attached to this petition is a distribution of the total amount received by each Local Government Council in Imo for June allocation for ease of reference.
20. The June local government council allocation received in July, was a Jumbo Allocation from the Federal Allocation consisting of amounts from the Statutory Revenue, and the local government shares of Value Added Tax, NLNG Funds etc. Despite the massive amount accruing to them, the state government only paid just one month salary arrear for May 2015 to the workers of the 27 local government councils in Imo State. Reason being that Zenith Bank gulped greater percentage of the money as recovery of the N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) loans upon which ISPOs were placed on the Local Government Council Accounts.
21. That under the 1999 Constitution as amended, the Local Government Councils are distinct bodies, and totally different from the State Government, and both cannot share liabilities.
22. That by virtue of the 1999 Constitution as amended, the state government is under obligation to contribute a percentage of its internally generated revenue to the local government and not to deduct, divert or even use the local government council statutorily allocated funds as collateral for loans.
GROUNDS/INDICTMENTS
1. Sections 162 (6) and (7) demands that all revenues accruing to local governments must be put in a special Account called “STATE JOINT LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACCOUNT” and sub-section 7 demands that once that is done, the monies must be transferred to the various LGA Accounts. It is our humble submission that the disappearance of the N5,365,201,309.29 (FIVE BILLION, THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE MILLION, TWO HUNDRED AND ONE THOUSAND, THREE HUNDRED AND NINE NAIRA, TWENTY NINE KOBO) June allocation accruing to the 27 Local Government Councils in Imo State at Zenith Bank PLC is tantamount to corruption.
2. That nothing in Section 7, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124 or 126 of the 1999 Constitution as amended, or the extant Imo Local Government Administration law empowers the Transition Chairmen of 27 LG Councils of Imo State, or the state government on their behalf to procure a loan of N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) each upon the allocation of each local government Council in Imo State. It is our humble submission that the procurement of N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) loan from Messrs Zenith Bank PLC against each of the 27 Local Government Councils in Imo State, amounting to N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION AND TWO MILLION NAIRA) is evidence of massive corruption and misappropriation of public funds.
3. That the procurement of N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) loan by each of the 27 local government Councils in Imo State without the approval of the Imo House of Assembly first sought and obtained in accordance with Section 7 of the 1999 Constitution as amended is evidence of corrupt practices and deliberate moves to misappropriate public funds.
4. That the diversion, movement, conversion or stealing of the N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) loan from Messrs Zenith Bank PLC due to the 27 Local Government Councils in Imo State, amounting to N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION AND TWO MILLION NAIRA) into a special account for the use of the state government is clear evidence of massive corruption and misappropriation of public funds.
5. That the granting of N926,000,000.00 (NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION) loan by Messrs Zenith Bank PLC against each of the 27 Local Government Councils in Imo State, amounting to N25,002,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE BILLION AND TWO MILLION NAIRA) in December 2014 barely six months to the end of the administration and their criminal diversion, movement or conversion of the said funds to a special account for the use of the state governor and making same top secret is a massive indictment on the management of Zenith Bank PLC Owerri Regional Branch.
6. That forging of the 27 Imo local government councils’ Finance and General Purposes Committee (F&GPC) Resolution for a loan request by the office of the Commissioner for Local Government Affairs, Professor ADAOBI OBASI, which she coerced the TC Chairmen and the 27 DAGS to sign, is criminal and should not go unpunished.
