People attract their kind of government; no be PDP? Even if shekau contests with PDP, he go win in abia!
LEAVE ABIA STATE ALONE!!!!!

Since Abia isn't your business, why drinking their 'supposed' medicine?

the source of this news isn't reputable, yet morons and zombies jumped in and started vomiting their hate.

APC can NEVER have Abia state.

When there is good news, you losers keep mute, but when an unsubstantiated claim against abia is made, "concerned commenters" jump in like its their calling.

let's even assume its right, is that enough to write off ikpeazu? I hate hypocrites.

This is how they suck every living cell out of developing/emerging economy.

Get foreign judgments that wipe out the foreign reserve.

Servicing loans, debts, interest and penalties.

Oxford, London School of Economics and Harvard train economists will soon flood here telling Nigeria to pay and settle business dispute in favor of the suckers.

When OBJ paid off Paris Club odious loans, it was good for the Country. Nigeria was asked to borrow by the same advocate that paid of the loan claiming loan had cheap interest rate and good for credit rating.

Prof. Soludo had to put her in her place when she started believing her false assumptions. If OBJ and Jonathan knew better, she could not have been right in both cases - pay off or borrow again.

Sometimes you have to wonder who loves this Country except those poor men and women toiling day and night to trade in needed goods and materials, sell and buy while fat cats bundle their sweat equity out through forex.

You posted a 2017 article to support your post that they've fixed the road, but the above is the reality from just a few months ago, 2019.


Instead of you trying to convince me or proving an unnessary point, you should be raising your voice, you should be pressuring the authorities in Abia to do better.

When WS won d Nobel laureate in 1986, he won it as a result of his work, not as a Nigerian, and definitely [b]not because he is an Omoluabi. Though I know where all ds craziness is coming from.

I could remember when he won it, ALL NIGERIANS (including ur 'clan') hailed him for making Nigeria (not Yoruba) proud!

Just 30 something yrs down d line, this unique feat is now seen as a 'Yoruba thing', 'our son vs their son' thing. So, so smh.

Nowadays, ur 'PhD' lots have conditioned d minds of d average Nigerian to first look at the tribe of anyone b4 commending/ rebuking his heroic feat/crime.
Smh!
I am not attacking soyinka . I am not. I just want to correct an impression about people's work being "superior" to other notable works because of a Nobel prize.

I have stated it from the beginning, Soyinka and Achebe are both greats. yet your kinsmen keep attacking that standpoint, citing Soyinka's Nobel prize as making him superior above Achebe.

Even if you have an Award body made up of angels, criticism will still arise. So your link(s) above is inconsequential.
my friend, the Nobel prize is a prestigious prize, arguably the most prestigious prize reward for literature. but its not a PERFECT AWARD. It has its own shortcomings. that is why you don't ALWAYS define a literary work by its award but by its global impact

Yasunari Kawabata - Japanese (1968),
Shmuel Yosef Agnon (1966) - Isreali.
Naguib Mahfouz (1988) - Egyptian (Arabic)
All the above mentioned won the noble laureate by not only being "non eurocentric" but they wrote in their native languages and still won. So your Eurocentric arguments is only good for the trash can.
Must of Achebe's appraisals, approvals and accolades came from this same Europeans. Just last week BBC listed him as one of the Top 100 Authors in history (Excluding Soyinka) with nobody shouting one Eurocentric nonsense.
I'm not surprised though, it's normal for our friends across the Niger to accept/chestbeat over anything that favours them but quick to cry foul, play down or or summarily claim persecution when it doesn't favour them.
pls do yourself a favor. Google through the "criticisms about Nobel prize". The prize being eurocentric has nothing to do with one using native language or not, neither does it affect the prestige of the prize.

J. K Rowlings, the author of the Harry Potter series, despite becoming the first billionaire writer, with her works being translated into several languages is yet to win a Nobel laureate. It might interest you to know that majority of the top 100 most popular book authors (including those with far more Eurocentric views) are not recipient of the nobel laureate and you're making a mountain out of Achebe's work (he's a very good novelist though).
Popularity doesn't determine the quality of literature and that's why laymen like you will forever argue in vain. Literature icons all over the world voted for Soyinka... who are you to disagree?
1. Nobel committee draws literary works from the pool of eurocentric works, so its understandable that not every Eurocentric work will win the prize. its just not possible.

2. secondly, harry potter series does not share the same literary theme with "things fall apart" though it being a work of fiction
. it rather shares the same theme with Amos tutuola's "palmwine drunkard" because they both are under fantasy subgenre of fiction.
