College of Medicine,
Best and brightest brains go to. In a democratic setting, our governor is supposed to be from amongst us (unlike Milad that could be posted from hellfire).

Against that background I asked, how can we have a democratically elected governor and our best kids will spend 10years in medical college without graduating? What sort of doctors will they become? Traumatised doctors?

And you post your rebuttal (in bold) that they have graduated after over 5 years of delay.

Who is lying here? You actually admitted a worse carnage because 6years of normal medical college plus over 5years delay is 11plus years!!!

Bro where did I wrong you?

centje: Which sentiments, please I countered every of your post with prove. I am not sentimental my dear. I refuted your lies on Enugu state college of Medicine. If i don't have facts i don't post, my dear. And whenever, i want to criticize Chime administration i do so with facts not lies. I just wish we could get pictures of the said college. It quite difficult to get pictures, the college is outside Enugu, even the Iwollo, i had only visited it once. I know for sure that the college of education, which is in the city centre, is getting some touches.

See below

I am not yet done Sir.

The pride of any institution is its administrative building. In 2009 a designated admin building was being worked on ind in 2014, see below the status. Pls ask Unemad who you claim is from Iwollo to go snap it today and post.

Does it show any deep interest by your idol, Chime? But there is N467million to give to Carlos the Mexican solve it all.

And you say it is a lie? Show your facts and stop hiding behind sentiments.

Upgrade of ESCAI to polytechnic.

Do you know that it is an Nsukka man that is pushing that? Do you really know the motive behind it or should I educate you?

wow! Wow! I've been dealing with small small masquerades. Centje the real big one has entered the scene. They must have run to call you in to save the situation. wow! The govt propanganda machine is on this matter now just because I asked some specific questions. Egwu di kwa!

Ok lets take the 'lies' one by one.

On agriculture, good photos of Mexican magic man, San Carlos. I thought You were going to show the Songhai farms. The promise of rural green cities in every local government and a bigestest mother farm, how far? Did it become a scam? That's the govt's flagship agric programme. I pray that this is not another front for some big man behind. You guys are actually giving him all that money N467million? What did he bring while coming? His brief case?

Now, I said no capital release, not a single one to Enugu College of Agriculture (ESCAI) and say you what? Diversionary articles. I've read all that from Afam Okereke. That earned him mayor of Nkanu West.

I show you below aerial ESCAI in 2010 and as it is today, just downlloaded and tell me if it looks like where govt focus is. You are showing me pictures of a lucky oyibo man's private venture, who succeeded in getting a mumuish govt to fund his business while the Agric College which should generate and disseminate knowledge is ignored.

Can you spot the difference?
Essential history:
Oct 2009 –Opening of The College
April/May 2010 Staff Recruitment

centje: If the next governor can improve on Chime's style then we did be very close to the type of democracy we've always dreamed of.

You can call above our point of departure. Every other thing is embellishment.

I say, let next governor recognise the failure of Chime's utopian policy of undue concentration on Enugu city centre beatification and show deft effort at core issues of ndi Enugu State -employment, food, healthcare, education and spread devt, howbeit to our hinterlands.

Mind you Sir, since next Gov will be of Nsukka stock, improving on Chime style of leadership means take Nsukka township, make obodo oyibo and ignore Enugu city (of course Chime ignored Nsukka), ignore Oji, Agwu, 9th Mile, Agbani and all of our over 360 communities.

That possibility scares me. I can't tell you how scared I am of that. And guess what, a precedence has been established. That is why we must all come out and say noooooooo, that's not the right style of leadership vis-a-vis what we need as of today.

"Say the truth today in Enugu State and you are branded Ekweremmadu. But the truth shall surely prevail" -Otil1

Yes

passion007: ^
Centje, my jaw actually drops with each sentence of otil1's posts. He started out well but has since caught propaganda fever from spikesC.
When people start to resort to falsehood to make a point, then it's best to leave them be.
Not to mention that this is all about Ekweremadu.

Your co-Otimkpus have been held down here for empty propaganda and self deceit.

That's what it is. Anybody in Enugu State of today claiming any progress is engaged in self deceit.

And here you are pumping in more propaganda.

Question: of the amount you pasted for the college (now to be polytechnic), how much has been released?

Another Question: I asserted that since the commencement of the College, no single capital release to it. Can you pls refute that?

I stated that since commencement, no new block of building added except the old TTC buildings which the college provost sells smoked fish to get in IGR to refurbish. Can you refute that?

Announcing money approved is not same as money released. People are awake now.

Dumping packaged governor's profile here says nothing bro.

And the eye-service picture of a little maize farm is for what purpose, Centje? Even a blind man can see that it's just a photo op cos u don't need that many people in that small farm at any point in time.

Centje, pls try another trick.

Centje, you are welcome.

I believe the only way to wake you, Unemad, is with a little jolt. Quite against my principle, I'm forced to say that you sound like a fool saying things you have no idea of jus to maintain your support for your paymaster.

Sullivan gave Iwollo what??!!!

Iwollo was a TTC town before I was born.

The College of Agriculture and Agro-Entrepreneurship inherited all the buildings of TTC Iwollo with a promise for renovation. But today what is the situation? No single new structure!!!!!!!!!!

No take off grant! And since the college was established, Sullivan has refused to fund it: no releases of its capital vote (budget allocations). Not for a single year. The provost is just fighting and sweating. This is the only higher institution in West Senatorial Zone mind you. I can txt you the no of the Provost. Call him and confirm this. Sullivan get issues o!

I'm shocked that it is your community and you did not see that the college is not what it should be. Shame on you Unemad!

What is blinding you to the many failings of this govt?? Emere gi ya eme?

I catch you here you shift there. So determined to continue to push a failed project.

Let me ask you Unemad, the mad otimkpu. Has Esut College of Medicine got accreditation? The foundation medical students are now going to year 10, Unemad! and you say you have a governor.

See neglect and decay everywhere:
Water supply, education, rural areas, food production, healthcare, industry/employment

Unemadu: yeye long story. u said Chime is Mayor of Enugu urban meanwhile he has opened up my community by giving us a brand new higher institution.
i have seen an exponential rise in business activities just from this move.

I just dey laugh u because im in my village now and can see for myself.

What I will not do is to compare worse to bad and then reach a conclusion that bad is good.

I've explained my position: that a 16iyear old is old enough to say I want indomie and not ogi.

We've had 16 about of uninterrupted democracy. Chime's performance is far from what can be called "good" and as a benchmark for next administration.

Comparing him with Chimaroke is Shere mischief and a cheap way to continue to wallow in self-deceit that a duly elected governor of Enugu State Nigeria ended 8years as Mayor of Enugu city.

Chimaroke clearly had his shortcomings. He also operated in a time capsule, inheriting the mess created by the military junta of that era. So let it be there.

because going there will open worse issues, like Chime inherited a better system of mgt. And should have done better. Plus budgetary allocation bigger today than then.

Chime's performance is making Chima look good despite the many shortcomings
Btw: GS101

Criminal | Define Criminal at Dictionary.com
criminal (ˈkrɪmɪn ə l) —n: 1. a person charged with and convicted of crime

Unemadu: I have asked u Chimaroke foot soldiers wat he achieved but you cant come up with anything. Even ngozievergreen his mistress cannot point to anything.

Now its obvious wat u guys will point to as his achievement which is Esut and parklane, two institutions that existed since Anambra State.

only diff is he moved one to his home town and built a few blocks which the present administration still continued to upgrade

please tell me what he achieved again

Unemad!

My mad otimkpu.

Thot there was an unwritten code to let this matter rest.

2nd pix not Enugu State. Op pls clarify. We dey ground o! No hanky panky

spikesC: Oga, i don't believe i insulted you anywhere. Infact you were the only one who had a normal convo with me.
Bu[b]t if you believe you were let down of any kind, i am sorry.[/b]



lol, i insulted you too. Like seriously?
Even if i did, you defo deserved it.

I gave you my points and all you could do was call me a southwesterner, a tribalist, etc. etc. just cos i countered you from all angles.


Yes, i came back on peeps here.

I am not sorry, it was premeditated

Ya'll killing the south east people you think you're defending
Ya'll killing the supposed matured debate that should be happening here
Ya'll killing Nigeria as a whole

I always visit this section without commenting. But today, i got my chance to tell ya'll the truth.
And am happy i did

This quite a mature response and should be emulated and encouraged. Pls guys, no harm intended. I can completely disagree with you and still share my (now hard to find eba) with you.

Spyder880 and Passion007 pls do the needful. I humbly enure you to accept (or at the very worst acknowledge tendered apology). Check out his misty puppy eyes, oh dear. Pls just accept.

One day, it is possible that we agree

Yoritsekiri: You guys said he wasn't attracting private investments, didn't you?

Pls sir, leave matta.

If u read the last paragraph, Ugo Chime's COPEN haas now completed and launched 3 private estates namely: Bethel (2007), Goshen (2010) and now ELIM (2014). Do you know which Govt allocated COPEN those estate lands?

Ugo Chime was Chairman Housing Corporation in Chimaroke Govt. You get the pix?

No false claiming pls.

We insist, we are serious that current administration is a sham! And it can be empirically proven.

Can anybody get geniun land allocation in Enugu state today? When the hon Comish, angling for house of rep is busy collecting bribes and giving double allocations. Ask anybody in Enugu.

The last thing Ugo Chime would wish was for Enugu Govt to near his project cos dey hate him with passion out of sheer envy.

In Goshen Estate, he had to construct a road across a cliff beside cattle market just to access his estate land, all by himself, no help. From ndi govt dat long declared him persona no grata.

Leaf matta o. We get packs of facts just waiting for the right time.

spyder880: So what? The benefit is to the masses, more housing units in the city outskirts, deepening and de-congesting the city of Enugu.

That I agree kpomkwem

What should not happen is the "claiming" of the achievement by ndi govt, cos Enugu has been made a DIY state due to absence of leadership.

I will give indepth analysis.

The Gov was there merely as a matter of protocol, cos the VP came. The VP came because it was an FMB success story (rare) which they wanted Oga on top to know about.

Otherwise it's Ike otu onye, Ugochukwu Chime struggling and sweating it out

NonFarmPayrol: is this not the same Governor jweeds were saying is not doing anything this morning
so what is this one

ELIM Estate is 100percent private sector development by Ugo Chime with Estate Devt Loan from Federal Mortgage Bank.

spyder880: I will take a short nap, wake me up when you find the name of the leader in this world who made everything right or who was never criticised.

Bros, na run u day so.
To be totally frank, its very difficult to defend poor performance. I'd hate to be in your shoes bro.

My advice is, don't attempt to come a forum like this and throw wool over peoples eyes. The world is too interconnected now for that. When we delve into who's behind the contracts for roads, handrails, road marking and street lighting, the only things happening in your Enugu city, you know that we know what's gwan.

@Unemad, the mad otimkpu. U av surreptitiously conceded that your has man performed below bar and you are shifting the blame to budget.

let me tell u. For a right thinking leader who knows he has a lean budget, repainting and coating Enugu metropolis ought to have been a low priority item. Egwu focused on education. Okpara used agriculture to lift the eastern region.

Let me also burst another fallacy of Chime's Enugu ga aburiri obodo oyibo: million markings of Enugu city roads without educating drivers and commuters is a waste of public funds. Who knows what those markings mean? I've yet to hear a radio or tv jingle educating the masses on those.

Chime that has never been overseas b4 becoming governor is now so oyiboish, using his small state allocation to pursue pipe dream at the expense of his peoples healthcare, education and well being. A complete buffonistic policy.

No sir. Doing the right thing and cutting your coat according to your clothe cannot be equated to going to school in Uk. Unemad, your still as mad as ever

Unemadu: So many children on this thread.

u are asking your father to send you to uk for studies but u didn't ask if he can afford it.

pls all these children tell us what u can achieve with 90 billion budget if u were to be governor

@ Chritjames. you deserve not admonition for you spoke kindly and from your heart.

Amaechi (Rivers) once said that we (political leaders) steal cos you allow us.

looks like he is right afterall.

now when can we as a people feel begin to feel bold to say to power, no this is not right.

you advocate that we take whatever is thrown at us and be joyous.

so how can things change?

Sullivan has succeeded pattering and painting the roads in Enugu metropolis only, where he will be plying his powerful armoured range rovers. and if you live off this race track like inside Emene or Nsukka town or our various villages, whatever u see u take.

is that what we need in a democracy. a mild from katsina or bornu can as well continue ruling us and we just sit and hope for the best.

education, healthcare, agriculture, industrial sectors are in crisis answer all a governor could boast of in 8years is beautofication? and for that he is best performing?

we don't even know when we use our mouth to invite bad omen.

think it brought/sis

Dear Passion, I praise you for being honourable in this matter, admitting issues not addressed in healthcare and education when our focus has not even reached there.

To be honest with you, this exchange should not be about Sullivan. Sullivan's administration is going to be history in a few months. He is just a reference point for us as residents and citizens to begin to engage with whoever wishes to ascend to that post.

The matter therefore is: should Sullivan's performance be a model for next governor to follow? Not fail or pass mark.

There's water in New Haven and no water in immediate adjoining Independence layout; is that the sound of depth is provision of utilities?

There is 4-point agenda of which infrastructure is 1 of and taking stock of work done it is only is Enugu metro. Is dat a model to copy and propagate? Just infrastructure o.

Now Rural Devt cum Rural Industry is another of the 4-point agenda. How far?

You helped to showcase that core and essential Social Service -Healthcare and Education are below mark.

So where is the performance? Announcing 4-point agenda and scratching on 1 in a whole 8years, is dat what next administration should deliver to us? There is an integrity issue here.

On the 3km, yes I intended to be definite and I truly am serious. Try and encircly Enugu urban, and from any point from the fringe, do 3km and let's see.

E.g. Start from the airport junction, head to emenite. From across the rail, total absence of road magic. No attn to Emene town. From base of Ugwu Onyeama, head out you hit 9th mile, a lost opportunity. From Nike lake, you are heading out to Nsukka via Igbo Etiti. Nsukka is a shame. Why would there be no proper medians and street lighting in Enugu rd and all thru Nsukka town, d no 2 city in Enugu?

So pls, next team needs not copy failure.
We need to be more demanding than making excuses for obvious lapses and total lack of drive.

passion007: Your grouse is that you have to buy water---that's stressful.
In New Haven, just adjacent to Independence Layout, water flows from our taps, and I mean water from Water Corporation.

But you mention that 3km away from Enugu, one is confronted with poverty and decay... Hmmm. That's the sound of propaganda.
3km is a precise and small distance, so I assume you were speaking metaphorically. But what do you mean precisely?

I agree Sullivan has underperformed in Education and Healthcare. But that's not enough to fail him. Keep in mind that in 2014, Enugu State will be getting the least allocation of all states in the SE--yes, even lower than Ebonyi!

I also give u this from Enugu USA commentators sent to me by a friend:

" Yes, all is not welll. The earlier the Governor kicks some butts, the sooner others wake up. Things are not going as they should. It pays often to listen to some "opposition" that is constructive.

AGAIN, many of the Governor's men have let him down. Bribery is rampant, and his stock is taking a dive while they watch their backs. Trust is at near zero. It is not looking good in the media war either. Ukpaka reporters appear to be sticking it to him. He can counter and stop defending... "

Home and abroad, only few are impressed.

I'm not of chimaroke stock, but the past regime was clearly more strategic in deployment of state's scarce funds, having a new prei-urban university town from virgin forest land, brand new roads, relocated judiciary, etc.

Development and progress is abt something new and positive. Dear brothers and sisters, the shining of Enugu city centre will wear in a few years.

It has started already cos d pictures in d main article are of roads earlier coated by current administration. They are failing and giving way even b4 the exit of the administration.

eaglechild: Water is supposedly a basic amenity, however, that statement you made shows you know nothing about Enugu.

Enugu has a very peculiar topography which makes it perhaps the most expensive city in Nigeria to access potable water.
Not only are most parts of the city significantly elevated, making boreholes almost impossible, you have to factor in the coal which makes the ground water often unsafe.

Tap water actually comes from Oji which is several kilometers away from the city and this is at a tremendous cost.

This is unlike for eg PH, Owerri, Aba, etc where even though the govt has done nothing about water provision, the populace careless because private boreholes are very cheap to dig.

That is the matter- excuses and excuses for not addressing the core matter in Enugu.

I live in independence layout and I buy water!

Since you know Enugu more than everyone else (collect ya honour badge), you will know that Iyioku river was to be havested to create a supply point thru Nike into Enugu. How far with that project?

Once it seems tough, Chime and his bunch run.

So if you come to position of influence in Enugu, become Gov or head of water ministry, you pref to spew above rubbish instead of finding solution.

Enugu has tough terrain, yes. Deal with it! That's why you were elected.

No depth in Chime's efforts I insist.

Btw: all shd notice how defenders of Chime always try to create a diversion. Why bring in Anambra? We are talking about Enugu State where if you do 3km off the city centre ur confronted with horror of poverty and decay.

mej67: Investigation has however revealed that Chime could be running away from being noted as governor who only concentrated efforts within two out of the seventeen local government areas in the state.

Gbam!!!

Something as basic as water, Enugu doesn't have. Water tankers everywhere you look. No single new water source in Enugu city, just coating and painting roads. Tufiakwa!! 8yrs

Contract for water pipes digging and laying for no water. Is distribution more important that water production? Odeh govt.

When I said dat last time, lttle did I know that others were watching too.

And nwanemad, d mad otimkpu will want us to shut up. Never! We will say d truth bros. U can't fool all of us

spyder880: Emene old road, around penoks filling station

Mtchew. Road to Emene

Guys I dey enter church now.

I summarise by quoting Amaechi (not his fan tho)

"We are saying to them (other Govs), we don’t play to the gallery. The problem of Nigeria is beyond road construction. Most Governors construct roads so that you will clap for them. We think that you need to address education if you must run away from poverty and that is why just as we are addressing education here, Lagos State is addressing education,..."

http://news.naij.com/67322.html

It was also on Nairaland.

Keep clapping guys. I will not, when my grandma can't get panadol from my village dispensary and must come to parklane for the minutes ache.

Chime wants all of Enugu ppl to come live in Enugu city centre. Good. That's where he lives too, on a popular bus stop, cool. All of una should just work out how to keep rent that is currently spiralling out of control, low. because the ordinary Enugu man is being forced to vacate the city by deliberate govt policy.

Happi Sunday to you all!

Otimkpu.

Which road paved in 9th mile? The bypass that would have permanently decongested 9th mile or which?

Milken hill-Ngwo rd, senatorial campaign for ndi Ngwo who have long vowed against ya man.

9th mile-olo-umulokpa: You ought to know how much Ezeagu LGA and Uzouwani LGA put in for that road.talk another thing bros

Unemadu: it shows u don't know Enugu very well. so u don't know that most roads in Ninth mile are paved save for the express which is a fed road. Do u know that the road from milken hill to ninth mile is even a federal road? Even that orie Emene road is a federal road.

i put this to u that most state owned roaf are in good shape.

bros if u know the number of roads Sullivan opened up u will be amazed. the other day i drove to Olo town without realizing i was already in the town because it had never had a tarred road in its history

@Passion, pls don't get me wrong. I live right here in Emene and I feel it real.

I guess your close to them. Pls it's not yet late. Can you pls direct their attn here. We seem 4gotten.

B4 I come out to those palatial cleaned up roads, my bumpers are all unhooked or torn.

Pls help, even if it's all we achieved by this lovely interchange.

Abeg na. Rgds always

passion007: Heh heh heh
You're a clown, I swear!

After the rail I say.

Yes.

spyder880: What about Emene old road, I can drive to Emene now. The airport road is for show and old road through thinkers corner is also for swow.

The road that gave value to their family land in thinkers corner

Bros, kindly go to Emene and start from Nigersteel, cross rail. That where pll stay. Anything b4 airport is for them, not for for us.

passion007: Otil1,
I'm watching to see how you'll move the goalpost... The pictures are rolling in per your request.

Bros, we are on ground.

We don't call that place Emene. It's Abakiliki Rd, from where you go to Emene.

spyder880: Did you say Emene?
The new airport bypass road done by Sullivan.

I said 4get the Emene airport road which is part of the show.

In Emene, nothing nothing.
