AnambraDota:


They are not covering many loopholes money generated from taxes are being siphoned in the state.
Anambra tax collectors are the worst in Africa, they are corrupt, greedy and selfish.

The best is digitalizing tax collection and using single account to monitor payments and withdrawals.
I suspect even the state governors overtime. It's possible that they declare the small amount they announce as IGR so as to make people believe that the govt don't have much money to run the state. Just imagine a case where the state gov declares say 6bn naira as the monthly IGR, people will begin to ask what the money is being used for.
No wonder a lotta Anambra big men want to become governor

Peter obi for one should as a matter of fact and urgency refund all the billions of IGR he stole in Anambra for 8 years. I wonder the heart someone will have to declare just 500 million as IGR for the entire Anambra State when only Nnewi can pull far more than that comfortably. Anyway, I'm happy Buhari has just relieved him of his short lived appointment

I knew from the beginning that should Buhari decide to probe money laundering in the past administration that there was no way Mr Obi will escape being named as the specialist banker in most of those transactions. Now that Madam Iwela, Dieziani and the rest are negotiating their way out through cooperating with the Buhari Crew. I don't know what people like Obi who were instrumental and consultants in the gigantic laundering of billions of dollars will be doing

To say that I'm proud of Anambra state will be an understatement. I thoroughly enjoyed myself this evening seeing FKO81's pictures. We should support our able governor in the way of prompt payment of our taxes. We should also endeavour to carry other igbo states along. Nothing will give me greater joy than seeing by beloved Igboland develop independent of Nigeria. Let's succeeded in Nigeria. Let's build the Igboland of our dream. On a final note, Let's maintain decorum on this thread. This constant back and forth argument about Obi should be avoided at all cost. I really appreciate all who have sworn to make this thread a success especially FKO81. Udo diri unu nile.

Veteran Nollywood Actor Pete Edochie Commends Gov. Willie Obiano For His Strides In Repositioning the Media and Entertainment Sectors In Anambra State.
Veteran Nollywood actor, Chief Pete Edochie has commanded the Anambra state governor, Chief Willie Obiano for his giant strides in repositioning the media and entertainment sectors in the state.

He made the commendation when he paid the Governor a courtesy visit accompanied by the Managing Director and CEO of the Anambra Broadcasting Service, Mr Uche Nworah. Chief Edochie praised the governor for investing in digital broadcast equipments in the state broadcasting organisation as well as introducing other measures aimed at improving the picture clarity and reach of the radio and TV station.

He said that the governor has demonstrated that he is a friend of the entertainment sector by appointing known practitioners from the state including Bob-Manuel Udokwu and Chido Obidiegwu as his assistants and promised that on their part, entertainment practitioners from Anambra state will always support his government and will use their various movie roles and other platforms to promote Anambra state.

While welcoming the Nollywood veteran, the Governor praised Chief Edochie for making Anambra state and indeed Nigeria proud through his professional conduct on and off the screen. He urged him to always be a proud ambassador of Brand Anambra.

Chief Edochie later presented a painting of the governor to His Excellency.

Since I started these tasks, Harbour industrial layout is the area that shooked me, I'm still short of words till this moment I never anticipated I will see site like that in Anambra, I have spent years in Lagos before I relocated late last year ever since then I've been trying my best to explore Anambra state, I will repeat again Anambra is lacking behind in media coverage, I believe what gave Lag edge to Anambra are Federal infrastructures, Sea port, international airport, and administrative head offices, Harbour is just one out of many industrial area in Anambra, they are other areas like Ogbunike/Ogidi, Obosi/Nkpor, Nnewi, Agu Awka, Ozubulu also trying to join, I explored Harbour I was very impressed, good road network and power station and trucks garage, Harbour industrial Layout Onitsha is just industries and companies residential areas (RA), They are more than 150 industries both large and medium in Harbour area and Ogbaru LGA, I took lots of pictures, i couldn't cover all, some areas their security men didn't allow me.

Mass media can make a great impact like APC used media to greater advantage!. See also the impact Radio Biafra is making in mobilisation of Igbos to 'Think-Home' in choosing where to invest their money & also the impact on exposing Nigerian govt false 'One Nigeria' claims where as there is no one Nigeria!.Anambra govt can also use Media to project our Cities better!

OBIANO OPENS UP OGBUNIKE CAVES


Anambra State Governor, Willie Obiano said he will open up the ancient Ogbunike caves for tourism development and revenue generation. The governor said this in Awka at a one-day workshop for stakeholders on tourism in the state organised by the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation (NTDC).

A statement by the NTDC quoted the governor as saying: “Ogbunike Caves has 11 entrances, but only one has been explored. We shall open up other entrances to the unique tourist site, build a 5-star hotel and a game centre, among other world standard facilities around the site.”

Ogbunike Caves is a tourist destination located in Oyi local government of the state. Obiano also said the state is ready to support NTDC’s Green City project, to ensure its success in the state.
“The Green City project is a viable catalyst to creating employment in the state and the country at large and also ensure a clean environment,” he said.

Speaking on the project, the NTDC boss, Sally Mbanefo said it is designed to deliver the Green City initiative as a differentiating platform for Nigeria’s Eco-tourism credentials with features, such as: a bio-fuel refinery for conversion of waste to wealth, demonstration farms, botanical gardens, hotels, housing estate, sports facilities, industrial parks, solar farms, water parks and health malls.

Serious am tired of we will we will until I start seeing us doing it.

I was at Nsugbe on Tuesday to be sincere any Anambra person that is still investing outside igboland needed his brains rechecked.

33, Akpaka, Nsugbe and college communities are all sprawling neighbourhoods.
Development in Anambra is underrated and under reported.

But my pain is that individuals are doing what government is suppose to be doing, you see landlords sandfilling their streets, buying electric wires and poles to make sure light got to their homes.
My dad was responsible for all the sandfills on our streets as back as 1994 when we were developing our land at Iyiowa behind Ideke Girls, he bought wooden poles and cables to make sure electric light got to our house which took 5 wooden poles and more 1440 ft of electric cable from the mainroad to our home the 8th plot from the mainroad.

The reason why am pained over the development is that when I got to Nsugbe the dude I visited was telling me how they are contributing to make sure there is light in the area. I saw the wooden poles they bought and huge coil of cable wire yet they need to bribe EEDC officials for those things to be fixed.
He told me the landlord was responsible for the street sandfilling.

Our government is not trying at all, this is not just Anambra peculiar problem but a generic Nigeria ineptitude.

Anambra State should be proactive, the scene of the tanker disaster is still like that months after the ugly even, beggars and hawkers have taken over the pedestrian bridge at Uga Junction, what is our government actually doing about street begging

When Northern states that are home of beggars are banning it, the beggars are finding their ways to East in a very disturbing ways.

Why is it difficult for Anambra State government to say no and mean it

Moore Street, Okwei, Iweka, Sanniez, Venn Road etc have been turn to market places and parking lots for traders who built houses without space for parking of cars.

Am sad to conclude that Anambra State government is weak and lack foresight.

Visit Niger Street and see what sand dredgers have turned the road to, just visit this street and see what is happening under this and previous administrations.

Sobs
