Wetin be this??😫. A local government chairman should be doing this.. he should focused on better things.

What are the better things?

osuofia2:
Soludo is really trying. Obi should be ashamed , after 8 years he had nothing on his name aside the Hero brewery

You reasoning shows how deluded you are.

mrjoeblinks:
Ehen?
.
All these with our zero maintenance culture go still result to nothing at the end of the day.

Is the zero maintenance culture enhanced by our zero expectation for governors to employ civil servants who are well paid, relative to politicians for doing the maintenance? This is in addition to our own disregard for maintaining personal things like houses, schools, mosques, churches, shrines etc.

Very impressive only a reasonable governor will think about this kind of place where the less privileged who can't rent proper shops will do their business

What are the better things?

Better things like employing teachers ANNUALLY to have every single Anambra child in quality primary and secondary schools that are free.

Better things like employing technicians, administrators, engineers etc to ensure pipe borne water is available in all building for every Anambra town and city.

I guess you are unaware of markets being LGA responsibility, right

Solu Solution

Why did Peter Obi ignore Soludo's solution to avoiding ebilokan's continuity of APC shege in 2023

jameshankss:
Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has said he is sure the candidate of Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, would lose the 2023 presidential election. Soludo said he would not submit to the bullying of Obi’s supporters, who recently descended on him for addressing issues in the state.

The governor made the comments in a lengthy write-up personally authored, with the title, “History Beckons, and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1).”

Soludo said Obi was inadvertently making the pathway to victory much easier for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and at the same time, toying with the destiny of millions of Ndigbo.

But the chief spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign, Yunusa Tanko, accused Soludo of being sponsored by some unknown persons to weaken the base of the party in the South-east.

The former CBN governor had been under intense attack for close to a week for dismissing Obi’s investment in the state as amounting to nothing, during a television interview.

Soludo said in the write-up, “My attention has been drawn to some of the tirades on social media following my frank response during an interview on Channels TV regarding the ‘investments’ Mr. Peter Obi claimed to have made with Anambra State revenues.

“Sadly, several of the comments left the issue of the interview to probe or suggest motives, inferred from my response on ‘investment’ that I am opposed to Peter Obi’s ambition and, therefore, committed a ‘crime’ for which the punishment is internecine abuse and harassment, even to my family.

“Everyone knows that I don’t follow the winds or one to succumb to bullies, or shy away from a good fight especially, when weighty matters of principles and future of the people are involved.”

Soludo said he had urged Obi to return to his former party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), to actualise his presidential bid. He added that he had always told the LP candidate to his face that he was not capable of winning the 2023 presidential election, especially, under LP, which had neither a councillor nor a local government chairman.

Soludo said Obi was not just his friend, but also his brother, but despite that, they have their political differences.

He stated, “For full disclosure, let me state that Peter Obi and I are not just friends, we call ourselves ‘brothers’. But we have political differences: he left APGA for PDP after his tenure as governor, while I have remained in APGA since 2013.

“During the last two governorship elections in Anambra in 2017 and 2021, he led the PDP campaigns but APGA won landslide in both elections. By the way, in 2016, he visited and proposed that I defect to PDP and contest the 2017 election against the incumbent Willie Obiano, but I declined.

“After my victory in November 2021, he called to congratulate me, as I did to him in 2010. That is the Anambra way: we fight fiercely during campaigns but share drinks at the next social events. After all, it was the Great Zik of Africa, who taught us that in politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies but only permanent interests.”

Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”

Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.

He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.

Finally the indigenous Igala people of Anambra state has witnessed development after decades of abandonment by previous administrations.

He’s entitled to even a 3rd term .

mecuries:
We've been messed up as a country that's why. Can you point out anything the governor of your state has done?

Oponu, you think every governor is as uselèss as igbo governors

Nice one. The name no make sense though.
It should have been named after the town or renowned indigene of Aguata LGA.

chatinent:
He is paid to work. I don't know why we should be grateful to a public official doing his duty that he is paid to do!


The reason they are there is to work! The corruption in Nigeria has become so bad that we have to praise public officials doing their duties because we can actually do nothing to those who don't.

is your governor doing same? I don't understand the bitterness

prolade:
So, what exactly did Obi accomplish in that state over eight years? Just look at what Soludo is doing now. We really dodged a bullet.

Obi laid the foundation only a dunce will dismiss all his contributions to what's currently happening in anambra state. Obi met anambra in a very sorry state, he saved billions for his predecessors and also fought and defeated god fathers that wanted to turn anambra to their cash cow 🐄 just like what's it's currently happening right now in lagos this is why obiano and soludo have the freedom to do their work freely without any interference from anywhere they don't have to be paying some percentage of anambra's monthly allocations to one dementia old man every month.

Kudos

You did well sir

Very Laudable project from His Excellency but hope this our brothers will not turn the Market into organise factory for production of fake DRUGS AND FOODS

Oponu, you think every governor is as uselèss as igbo governors

Your upbringing is really messed up if insult is always part of your conversation

Nigeria & substandard products are 5&6
How long can this edifice last?

Soludo and low quality projects.

No vacancy in Anambra Government house until 2030. No evil party should come and share rice to deceive the people.

And the Mr. Know all that want to rule Nigeria can not boast of one landmark achievement in Anambra as a Governor!

SocialJustice:
Soludo and low quality projects.

Anu this is for petty traders selling under the newly constructed Ekwulobia flyover, this is shopping mall he is building

You are right. They were elected and are being paid to do their work.

But many of them are not doing so, instead diverting state funds for their own peronal use.

So praising those who are at least working is good, as more praise begats more workings.

Kudos to those doing the work, as posterity will still judge allbof rhem in the near future.

Everybody can point at what Gov Soludo is doing in Anambra state just within four years of his governance. But the Agulu fraud spent 8 years as the governor of the same state without any notable project in the state except the lost making brewery he built for the criminals to get drunk in increase their crimes.

No be small modern market O
You're mediocre for calling these market stalls a modern market.

Bestmanfornow:
The governor of Anambra state, Prof Charles Soludo, has completed 510 shops in Ekwulobia for petty traders, and those loading under the newly constructed Ekwulobia flyover has been completed.
