Chief Anthony Anenih is dead. May his soul rest in peace.

Former Minister of Works and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Tony Anenih is dead

Mr Anenih, 85, died on Sunday evening at Cedarcrest Hospital, Abuja, where he was receiving treatment for an undisclosed ailment.

According to wikipedia Mr Anthony Akhakon Anenih was born in Uzenema-Arue in Uromi. In 1951 he joined the Nigeria police force in Benin City. Working at home, he obtained secondary school qualifications.

He attended the police college in Ikeja, and was selected for further training in the Bramshill Police College, Basingstoke, England in 1966 and the International Police Academy, Washington DC in 1970. He served as a police orderly to the first Governor General of Nigeria, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe.

He worked as an instructor in various police colleges, and in 1975 was assigned to the Administrative Staff College (ASCON), Lagos. He retired from the police as a Commissioner of police.

Mr Anenih was a state chairman of Nigeria’s then ruling party, NPN, between 1981 and 1983.

Mr Anenih was also the national chairman of the Social Democratic Party in 1993 under whose platform Moshood Abiola won the June 12, 1993 presidential election. Mr Abiola was later imprisoned by the Sani Abacha dictatorship with many of his supporters accusing Mr Anenih of betraying the June 12 cause.

Upon return to democracy in 1999, Mr Anenih was also a founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party and was appointed works minister by then President Olusegun Obasanjo. He was accused of masterminding the mismanagement of tens of billions of naira while he held sway as works minister.

His death should be a reality check for those politicians who think they will live forever... This man was relevant even when he was age stricken... If I hear his name my mind flashes back to NPA...
now he's no more and as the good book says after death JUDGEMENT

They should pack bales of money inside his coffin. Sebi that's what life is all about?

This man was among those that raped Nigeria to a point of comma. May God forgive his shortcomings and restore the damages he has contributed to this nation.

Though I’m obliged to say RIP to the dead; but this man was one of the problems we had in the country. I guess ‘Mr fix it’ can’t fix death

The World is just a phase. Eternity should be our focus. I live not for now but for God who created me

Mr. Fix it. Weather rich or poor, dead is a common denominator for us all and we'll must answer our creator one day how we lived the gift of life He gave us all.
Nobody is IMMORTAL!!!

But e never too tey wey him wife die na.
