The Anambra thread going back as far as 2009 is still here to access and it shows how many of the obidient dunces today we're lamenting about Obi being a disaster.
cheesy

Akpabio was one of the best governors during his time...

Many infrastructures and legacy projects were built by him in akwaibom. Including the world class international stadium that still hosts football matches till today and regarded as one of the best in the country.

Long and short is Akpabio was a better governor(but also the worst senate president...but let's stick to the governor comparison which is the matter of discuss)

Peter Obi is a lot of hype with nothing really to show for it as governor of anambra state.

Nothing really spectacular did he achieve as governor!

A South Easterner will not appreciate a good governor when they see one because they never had one and so it will look as if everyone must be bad to be even with them.

Ugwuanyi
Okorocha that built over 500 status at N500m/1
Obi
Obaino still try
Emeka Ihedioha
Orji Kalu.

I can't think of one. Even Soludo in his magesty will learn from Akpabio. I never met any Akwa Ibom man or woman say to Akpabio the things Anambra indigenes said about Obi during his tenure. They literally couldnt wait for him to round up so he could go.
You are very ignorant. What you are comparing is allocation not achievements. Akpabio was swimming in money yet achieved very little with billions in dollars. Hate is a deadly disease

And yet akwaibom has one of the highest rate of poverty in the country.

A state with very great number of dilapidated schools and hospitals.

So what did akpabio do with near unlimited oil money at the height of high oil prices.?

Health, poverty rate and education are the three most important factors affecting the masses.

If he couldn't make the state one of the best in any of those three areas then what did he do?

Should we compare Anambra with akwaibom in those three areas?

For someone like akpabio and with the level of corruption that he displayed when he was minister , there is no question in my mind that the reason he spent billions of naira building roads and Bridges is because of the high rate of kickbacks involved.

That guy does not give a damn about the masses.

Ok. I will assume hes from Ogun State

Since 1999. They've had Osoba, Gbenga Daniel, Amosu and now Dapp Abiodun.

Is there any of these people you want to compare with any governor from SE?

Though they could be better but all these people floor Obi in governance.
Ogun being the industrial hub of Nigeria is a testament to this. The only thing going on in Anambra is fake drugs.

We'll wait for NAFDAC to finish with them and see what's left of the Alambla

Check out the aerial view of Enugu and check out an aerial view of ogun or osun, and then come back and delete this nonsense.

Obi is in the class of lucky igbinedion, diepreye alamieyeseigha, and immediate past Abia governor. Akpabio is a legend.

Obi didn't built a single classroom in 8 deplorable years. You know how many Akpabio built?

Akpabio built stadium, Obi built beer parlour.

Don't compare the two, please

Peter Obi is far better than all the governors who have ever ruled your state combined.
Oga Akpabio was far better than Peter Obi as a Governor there is no argument about that
