Obi didn't put a single fly in Awka , the state capital for the good 8 years he spent.

The 2 flyovers in Awka were built by Obiano.

The Pandora fraud did nothing for 8 years

ylordy:
is not a most a government will build flyover

Afamed:
Then why did the first project project Obiano did was the construction of fly over at Awka?

You must defend your Pandora fraud at all cost
