Don't despise your days of humble beginnings.

Nice PR Work ahead of 2027....!!

If the electorates perceive you to have failed and Undeserving of a second term,you find other tactics to use and work up their emotions to your favour.

Which one will Tinubu use now?

Something simple and suave and persuasive...

Anyways,Make I write ideas send Tinubu.

Him need am badly...!!

The guy looks has always given him away as someone who is coming from obscurity and poverty, umahi just handed over a whole state to his most loyal servant who will cover all his corruption tracks in office and also do all his biddings not because nwifuru is the most educated and most qualified in ebonyi for the job this is the main reasons why we hardly hear about any major significant thing that's happening in ebonyi since umahi left office over 3yrs ago.

What is wrong with being a bricklayer?.
The people you call building engineers what are they?.
What is the difference between a mechanic and Automobile engineer?.

Stop worshipping certificate and face reality

There's dignity in labor... No shame in starting small... Don't just relax in the ace of little.... Keep doing your legitimate job

the guy ugly Sha, even with all the money .

meanwhile, the shoes umeahi left for him in eboyin seems too big for him....

one hardly hear anything about him or Eboyin this days
The guy just lacks class and professional experience for the job not because he is ugly, umahi is just a very selfish politician who is only thinking about himself and not about the future of the whole ebonyi.

Umahi is probably still the governor of Ebonyi. The former bricklayer is only fronting for him. The Sharing Formula for State Allocation and Internally Generated Revenue has been agreed on. Present Governors should learn from Umahi. They should pick former Akara sellers, Corn roasters and Kulikuli hawkers as their successors.

He still looks like a bricklayer, forget the nice clothes.

These kind of people will never help the poor, whenever you ask for help they'll tell you to sort yourself out because they've been there before.



When you dig deep to know why some people are heartless you'll find out they were from poor backgrounds.

There's dignity in labour even though Peter Obi supporters wants to make it look degrading. It's better than showing his throwback committing crimes.

Each time I hear the name Ebonyi, I wonder if it's truly a state in Nigeria 😂
And why is that. Ignorance or what. It a state and very big one at that with a lot going for it.
Re: Throwback Picture Of Governor Nwifuru As A Bricklayer by alezzy13: 6:41pm On Jul 04
Well congratulations to him. Such rise is commendable and inspiring.

The unfortunate thing is we know how the politics of absolute loyality plays out in such godfather - godson relationship: basically this is Umahi's third term. If you know, you know.
Re: Throwback Picture Of Governor Nwifuru As A Bricklayer by Nnamdipapa(m): 6:42pm On Jul 04
As a governor, he still looks like a bricklayer. Not that there is anything wrong with being a bricklayer

It's very obvious that the guy does not even know his left from his right. Meanwhile , I just think Umahi fixed him there because he can easily be controlled. Simple

Governor Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru of Ebonyi State has come a long way. Many people dont know he was once a Bricklayer.

Here he is with 'leveling stick', chilling with his fellow Bricklayers on a building site.

How did he go from being a Bricklayer to becoming a Governor? The story goes that Nwifuru became a loyal aid to an up and coming businessman and aspiring politician called Dave Umahi

Dave Umahi would go on to become deputy Governor and Governor, and took Nwifuru along. Nwifuru became Dave Umahi's annointed political son and handed over to him when his tenure ended

Nwifuru is now Governor of Ebonyi State while Dave Umahi is Minister of works.
Humble beginning. It doesn't matter where you start, where you are going to end up is the real deal

Mr governor please you should remember your other friends in that picture
Good one.

But it all depends on how they treated him in those days.
