₦airaland Forum

One of the threads on this forum are about posting pics of Obi commissioning projects. There are hundreds of pics of him doing exactly this so if someone wants to look for them, they are abundant.

But pursuing this (facebook development pictures) will make you miss why people love Obi and what makes him a good governor.
Obi did not concern himself with elephant projects and self promoting photo-ops. Most of what he did great were things that were not for publicity. Actual good governing, rather than taking pictures near a ribbon. Here are examples.


Privatizing Mission Schools - Long ago Igboland was dominated by mission schools. Church run schools that helped close the education gap in the region in a very short about to time. These schools were well run, efficient and effective. After the war, the government adapting a 'government must do all' mentality, took over these schools.

Like everything else the government holds in Nigeria, the schools rotted. Anambra fell off the rankings of best educated states. The mission schools became the exact same thing as all of the other public school in Nigeria.

Obi, rather than building new schools for the rich while the old ones rotted away for the sake of photoops played it smart. He took the entire education budget, and seized it. Then he gave the schools back to the churches who were doing a better job of running them. Then with money other governors use for photoop projects, he equipped these schools with computers, technology labs, science labs. Etc.

Imagine if the entire education budget of any state of solely dedicated to improve the quality of schools on ground, rather than wasted on 1-2 new schools. Today, even village mission schools are the highest standards in Nigeria and for this reason Anambra went straight to the top for Waec, JAMB, and all other educational metrics in Nigeria.



So when you're looking for photos, you will find several of him equipping these schools with what they need to reach an international standard, rather than building a big 'international school' that once campaign season ends, will rot.

So now, the government budget is surplus, the schools are improved, and the schools are run by competent hands. Imagine improving all schools in a state by spend less money than you would have used to maintain them without improvement?
Next, with the extra money, he quietly added new schools.

My school, Queen of angels secondary school Nnewi benefitted even though it was a private school.

Obi made public schools to be sought after. Check girls high school Nnewi, Maria Regina Nnewi,okongwu grammar school Nnewi, Nnewi high school.

I'm mentioning these schools because I witnessed their transformation. Till date, these schools moved from your regular school to schools with high standards. To gain admission, you really need to struggle and be very brilliant
