Calabar1stSon:
How you found a way to defend this is really baffling. Nigeria isn't a western country! Your leaders are thieves who loot and stash in the US and the rest of the world.

Regionalism brought to the fore the wonderful capabilities of the Yorubas.We have doné it before and we will surely do it again.

Well the facts are there that with the huge IGR Lagos generates the state is still in debt and very much underdeveloped!

Rather than always supporting ineptitude leadership style of ruling, learn to speak the truth at the same time. Ain't saying you shouldn't defend your region but if you must do so, apply wisdom.

LadyExcellency:
Actually, you don't know much about Orji Uzor Kalu and his Administration.

Forget politics, he was among the best.

Just consult USA diplomatic cable to learn more as much have disappeared from the Internet.

Orji Kalu was the only one the cable agreed was paying for project mobilization with his private money.

Lies! Uzor Kalu is a thief and the foundation of Abia state financial problems. you should thank God for my brother Gov. Ikpeazu the man that is cleaning the mess an paying all the debt that his predecessors left for Abia State. By the time he leaves office Abia will be in a strong financial footing for the first time since Uzor kalu and his gang happened to Abia.

Stop being deluded.

Listening to political propaganda to pull down Kalu is nonsense.

I will help you with one fact. Obasanjo was deducting N1.2 billon per year from Abia State allocations from a made-up Federal debt when the annual budget was insignificant compared to today. All in a bid to stop Orji Kalu from challenging his third term and eventually contesting for presidency.

SpecialAdviser:
Yes bro. I have always told people South east has the best leaders in Nigeria.

Did i hear you say the South East has the best leaders? THIS GUY IS A COMEDIAN ASWEAR.

uzor kalu was not the only governor that was opposing OBJ in fact most of the governors were in opposition of OBJs third term, Obong Attah was the arrow head of the opposition to OBJs third term as the chairman of the powerful Nigeria's Governors forum at that time. what happened at that time is well gazetted, so don't obfuscate facts, as if Uzor kalu's thiefery of Abia state funds was as a result of opposition to OBJ it was not, he stole Abia state public funds and he has been indicted and convicted to that effect.

OBJ used EFCC to witch hunt all the gov. that opposed his third term it was only the guilty like Uzor kalu, Ibori and Alams etc that were caught up, infact uzor Kalu hates OBJ because obj caught him red handed , OBJ is not a saint but he didnt make Uzor kalu to steal from Abia people, that was gov. Kalus choice.and he has to live with that choice!

Tell me why Buhari, Babangida and others opted for Orji Kalu should Obasanjo gets third term?

Please, don't mention Attah in the same sentence with Orji Kalu when fathers of return to democracy is mentioned. Tinubu is in that grade.

As at 1999 through 2003, US Government quoted Orji Kalu as making $20 million every year from his international businesses according to US diplomatic cable.

Stop believing Obasanjo's EFCC accusations against Kalu. They are all wash.

USA owes Japan,China etc.They have mostly domestic debt just like Lagos. Anambra has the highest external debt that they cannot repay in 100 years because all SE states cling to FG to exist.
You can see that USA owes China more than 1 trillion dollars and according to experts, it is a good investment.
Almost all the billionaires of the world are indebted.Rich people just like rich states are mostly indebted,They are given these credits because they can pay back unlike Imo,Ebonyi,Anambra etc that are poor states that financial entities are afraid of lending them money

Stop getting erection from the craps cull from Internet. Do you go into a trade war with a person whom you are indebted? USA has engaged China in bitter dragged out trade war. China is seeing all red from the trade blows USA under Trump had delivered. Japan owes its well being to USA.

US is not the richest nation on Earth

You know a rich nation by its per capita income
US per capita income is not even among the top ten in the world


US is just the biggest economy
Not the richest
You can't be indebted and claim to be rich
It has no meaning in business terms


There are many countries there citizens are living better than Americans


Just like American passport did not even make the top ten of the most powerful passports in the world

You need to read your economics book on the section that dealt with wealth of a nation. Your so-called "per capita income" yardstick is very elementary. There is more to rich country than the silly per capita income. A country that could easily go under the heap for standing up good army is richest because it is lucky to have beeen endowed with natural resources and tinny population. USA is the richest country on earth all the ramifications.
