Nice one Governor Willie Obiano.

This man taking giant strides in Anambra.

This man has a lot of APC qualities, hopefully he changes his party since he seems to be in conformity with what the APC stands for. Continue with your good works, and you might be the Eastern man that will be projected for the Presidency.

Nice one Governor Willie Obiano.
APC qualities? You be clown bros

I am wondering how they will detect fake POS? ie If the agents wearing the specially branded uniforms and ID cards bring a POS that is linked to another bank account, how will they know?
Had to sign in to answer your intelligent question, It is possible but it's not sustainable, cyber thieves are always look for a sustainable model. These POS are connected to accounts, so it won't take time to weed out corrupt officials. Now, the most dangerous issue here is that if these government officials are smart enough to know how to use skimmers, then it's fair to say Anambra State residents are in trouble.

Each of the POS meant for IGR will be customized and it'll be indicated on the receipt.

Smart Chick..


I would be very impressed if Governor Obiano actually thought that far..

The one problem of Nigeria is not lack of good initiatives, but rather poor implementation.


See as you have already found a loop hole that Oga governor did not bother to explain.

A whole Anambra boy like you have refused to see anything good in your state -Anambra because of
your love for PMB and affiliation to APC.
Keep making mockery of your state and continue following Buhari and APC like zombie.

As a measure to avoid the over dependence on federal allocation and flush discrepancies encountered in revenue collection, the Anambra state government today launched the Banks' use of point of sale (POS) for Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) collection.

Flagging off the project at the Alex Ekwueme square Awka , Governor Willie Obiano stated that the process is geared towards sealing off the leakages in IGR collection. He said that over 10,000 Ndi Anambra will be gainfully employed with the introduction. The governor listed the levies to be collected to include market stallage fees, sanitation, market development levy, traders tax, decongestion, loading and offloading levies, among others. He urged the banks to show great sense of commitment in the project. Obiano noted that the state's IGR when he assumed office was 500m but currently at 1.3 bn adding that the state is targeting 2.2bn with the launching of the system. The governor expressed confidence at the banks and the agents readiness to work. He urged Ndi Anambra not to pay cash to anybody not fully identified.

Earlier in his remarks, the chairman, committee on the use of POS for IGS collection and deputy governor of the state, Dr. Nkem Okeke further explained that this is to ensure that revenue gets directly to government account so as to enable it develop all infrastructures in the state. He disclosed that 8 banks identified to partner with the state in the use of POS for IGR collection. He listed the banks to include Diamond Bank, First bank, Skye bank, Zenith bank, Fidelity bank, UBA, Sterling Bank and Stanbic IBTC Bank. He posited that the state was divided into zones and each of the banks were allocated zones of collection through the ballot process. He further added that the POS also enhances data collection thus increasing the state's data bank.

Explaining how the system works, the consultant for the system and managing director of Oliswarren group, Chief Olisa Anyauno said that the POS system reverses the system of cash collection. According to him, the system is watertight and is aimed at blocking leakages inherent IGR collection. He explained that the POS system requires the use of the Debit card (ATM card). He posited that all field agents are equipped with POS terminals and will be wearing specially branded uniforms with ID cards. He advised those who don't have ATM cards to pay cash to the agents who will in turn use their ATM cards to make the transaction on their behalf and issue electronic slip. He warned against accepting manual receipts for transactions. Chief Anyauno further disclosed that Anambra is the first state to launch this.

In his vote of thanks, the commissioner of Trade, Commerce and Industry Hon. Ifeatu Onejeme expressed gratitude at the fruition of the process and launching.

The event was graced by the speaker of the state house of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Rita Mmaduagwu, top government functionaries, traditional rulers, Bank managers, member of public.

Obiano is a technocrat managing human and resources is his forte in fact he is embodiment of good leader as was witnessed with his programs and policies and also we shouldn't forget to appreciate the effort of the former governor Peter Obi in identifying Obiano as his successor, it is an attested fact that both men are the drivers of a new Anambra that is emerging

If you think you have to be very litrate to operate a POS machine then you are more clueless than our president.

Let me also add I think a narrative of transactions will be on the receipt. So it would be hard for fakes.

Good initiative. The state Government still need to disemminate this information to the grassroots through its ministry of info.

But come to think of it, Anambra one of the smallest states in terms of Land mass is one of the biggest in terms of initiatives and development.
b grin
account name and number will be indicated on the electronic receipt and the payer can verify if it tallies with the one announced by the government

Bone o, with government officials, i don't trust them at all. They are very smart when they want to rip someone off. They might have the skimmers already so it is a case of multiple streams of income for them. This issue of POS being linked to a different bank account was discovered in Lagos state with LASTMA and all that was done was to dismiss the staff and their head involved.

Imagine giving those officials POS machines. You will see them everywhere terrorizing citizens because they know that the money is coming to their own pockets. Just cough and they will jump on you.

No he doesn't have any APC character, like presenting a juicy budget in the day only to come back and steal it in the night like Buhari did.
