dayokanu: Show us any stats that shows Anambra ahead of Oyo. ANY stats whatsoever

Who gives a flying fhuck about stats when there is nothing in this world that suggests the worst Anambra town is not better than the best Oyo city. In statistics I can beat Manny Paquiao silly in 10 seconds but come to the ring, Manny rules. Anambra will continue to rule Oyo in everything abeg.

dayokanu: Google Nigerian states by GDP

And who gave the fools those lazy stats, you?

queensmith: where did u get that from?

From dipping his fingers into his anus, smelling it and then typing anything that comes to his deranged brain.

queensmith: I even want to know where these GDP figures and stats are coming from, and if you people arent just trying to measure states by the number of tall painted buildings it has. . . . . . .

The stats is rubbish, and in dollars? abeg!

You can see the position of Oyo in top 4. The highest state without Oil or a Federal Capital while Anambra is languishing below Osun, Ondo and benue

You and me know the truth, those dollar denominated GDP figures is just a wash, American states were substituted with Nigerian states to present that doctored statistics. Welldone Dayo, your mumuness is gaining momentum.

I admire the style of Rochas a lot, very charismatic and energetic form of leadership with a view to make the biggest change possible and to show, not to talk of changes like Obi, who is just talking and talking like a market woman.
At the opposite of Rochas style of leadership is Sullivan, but with same impact on the ground, government is all about delivering on people's expectations and not acting like Peter Obi who thinks he can save the money while the people suffer. The next governor better not be Andy uba or esele, they will just scatter the little money obi may have saved, if he even saved at all.

Syncan: Agu Ukwu,thank you very much, it's time enlightened people start to tell the rest what governance is all about. Old OMATA ideologies should not be allowed to form the peoples view in such a great state.

Alas! But I even respect OMATA thinking to educated illiterates running the state now and not remembering that government is all about popularity of your action and the most people your policies impact on, positively.

The OMATA group were better, G.U. Okeke would have made a better governor than Peter Obi.

Syncan: You are a true son of your father. Say it as it is,enlighten the ignorant.

He is a true son of his mother, his father will be very ashamed of him right now.

There is no way you can hide a pregnancy with your hand.

@ chino and your claim of unemployment in enugu state, now consider this.

Nigerian breweries in Enugu state has employed at least 30,000 people both directly and indirectly, senior staff, junior staff, temporal staff, casuals, contract staff, drivers, outside haulage companies, drinks distributors, beer palour owners, suppliers of raw materials, spare parts, waste disposal companies, cleaning and fumigation companies etc, etc.

The same is happening in Nigerian bottling company enugu (coca cola)

The same is happening in 7up bottling company enugu

The same is happening at Shoprite Enugu

The same is happening in the whole hotels, parks and entertainment outfits in Enugu state

But you may be correct to say there is unemployment in enugu, the influx of Anambra graduates to look for jobs in the nearest 'city' to them is to blame for that your wrong logic.

Syncan: I suggest you stop speaking, you're exposing much ignorance or you're simply being mischievous by attracting bashing on our sister state.

Thank you my man, I may shut up, I dont want a state where i have relatives to be exposed like this. Its a very big shame.

chino11: @ van bonatte


You make me laugh so much so that I started shedding tears for you..

You heard someone saying that I dignified you by responding to your comment, because of where you are coming from. Your enugu state benefitted from the old eastern region and still up till today there is nothing to show for it. Today there is heavy insecurity in your so called state; few days ago a US based economist from Aku was murdered in your same enugu rubbish. This happens on daily basis.

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/12/xmas-shocker-how-us-based-nigerian-economist-was-killed-in-enugu/

Most of Anambrans big boys has since relocated to Awka. Some of them I know by virtue of my job has either completed or at various stages of completion. Soludo, Akunyili has completed their mansions in Anambra. I will take a snapshots of Ngige and Andy's edifices for all to see soon. Even Ekwunife has since moved into has own personal house at Iyi-Agu estate. Akunyili completed her magnificient hotel in Awka recently.

You can only die in denial, because we have since left you timid people behind. enugu state is busy resurfacing the same old roads constructed in 50s and 60s. Show me new development in enugu state since 1991. Show us pictures of Nsukka, Udi, Oji river etc. are those ares not part of glorified enugu state? Show me single FDIs or any investor seeking to come to your enugu state; this is because your state is a dry land where nothing works. Unemployment has overtaken the state like a wild fire, while the gov is busy deceiving you fools with road resurfacing. This is the same fraud that chimaroke ran in the same and now efcc has been after him since 2007. This is the same way the present will become a regular visitor to efcc once he steps down.

Anambra has best network of roads traversing entire state. We are not only interested in the urban center just like you fools are doing window dressing. Anambra is becoming a one-city-state, from Awka to Onitsha to Nnewi to Ihialla to Ekwulobia to Uga to Oba to Obosi to Otuocha to Anam etc. Mention another enugu state town outside enugu urban..none.

The biggest lie of 2012 is to say thast any Anambra man is relocating back to Anambra from Enugu.

The traffic is in the opposite direction, and we all know it. Part of my family that is from Anambra will never agree to go back there because of the orderliness of Enugu town. Call it resurfacing of roads, true but this is the smoothest roads in Nigeria, I was told you can close your eyes and drive in the day and night, zero potholes, bright streetlights, no crime even till 3am everyday. I will stay there whenever I come in. Please dont say your state till you know where I am from, are you sure I am Igbo at all?

Let me show you examples of brand new roads going on in Enugu, I heard and saw pictures of new roads being created to dualize the road that leads into Enugu from Ebonyi state. I saw pictures of this somewhere in this forum. I have not been to Nsukka since I left school but the town beats Awka hands down. Tell yourself some truth and hide your face in shame for your underperforming governor. The excuse of not borrowing money is a lame one, please apologize to the poor masses of Anambra for that, the state is suffering with so much bad road like onitsha to awka and you are here talking about prudence when people are now afraid to visit the poor state. That is stupid prudence to me.

So let me end by showing you the new development enugu since 1991

The new university (esutech)
The new ebeano tunnel crossing (road created for the first time through the bushes of GRA)
The new state teaching hospital at parklane Enugu
So many housing estates to many to count (
The multi storey office complex
The new teaching hospital for UNN
Nigerian breweries (i heard chimaroke was very instrumental to the siting of the brewery in the state)
Shoprite
Innoson mega factories
oakland park
The brand new road created in independence layout to connect that area with port harcourt express road (dual carriage)

I wish I can remember more, but the talk among igbo boys here is the innovation of enugu and Imo states, we all agree here that Obi is a huge failure.

chino11: You should start by asking whether your sullivan is good enough to vie for Councillor in Anambra state. Listen little man, the stakes and standards are very high in Anambra state. We don't go for mediocres like chimaroke and chime, both are not even qualified to get commissioner's position in Anambra. You guys are too local mehn..

Not holding brief for Chimaroke, but he constructed a whole university in Enugu state (Esutech or something like that). The last Anambra man to have ever built a whole university is the great Zik of Africa. Just equate Chimaroke with Zik, simples.

chino11: nwanne mu I wonder oo..

Who is Sullivan? Was it not the same gov who has been away for 5months now. Has he achieved 1/10th of Obi's achievement. How many FDIs has he brought to his state? How has he tried to solve heavy unemployment plaguing enugu state today.

Anambra as the core SE state needs a caliber of a gov who can only be found in Anambra state and not elsewhere. For me the likes of Soludo, Nnamdi Uba, Dora, Ngige are the people to watch in 2014. Peter Obi is actually going for VP if not presidency in 2015. GEJ has marked him for either of the top jobs because of his closeness to Jonathan. Peter Obi has actually laid down the framework and foundation for speedy advancement of Anambra to be able to go up along side its two mates in Nigeria as Rivers and Lagos states.

Sullivan cannot even agree to set foot in Anambra, reason? The dirty nature of the state

@ chino,

Really, there is no need comparing light and darkness. I may not be an Anambra or Enugu indegene but the world is a global village where every little fact is out in the open for people to see. Imo, Enugu and Ebonyi are beating Anambra state hands down right now in terms of every developmental indices used to judge good governance. I was surprised at even Ebonyi that people criticise, and the efforts of Elechi and co.

Coming to Anambra, I am ashamed each time the state is mentioned. Maybe the state is not very backward in comparison with many nigerian states, but the expectations here are so high that the current state of things is a crying shame. The human and material blessing of the state has not started to reflect as benefits to the common man. The only thing that is saving this government is the various philantropic acts of so many rich people in the state. Obi has done nothing as a governor, except making noise and investing in fidelity bank and beer factory. I have relatives that are from this state.

THere is little wonder why Enugu stste is the home of rich anambra people. The secret is infrastructure and security. Chime comes top in infrastructural achievements, maybe Rochas even beats him in that. Obi has done nothing, I repeat, nothing to justify his 8 years. word on the street is that ojukwu was the only reason obi still stays as governor. The ikemba asked the FG to just leave his state for him to control, and that is why Good people were manipulatively removed or frustrated in the elections. The fame of Ngige looms large here, obi is just a paper tiger.

Ekiti? just another shithole like Oshun.

Confession time, beg the nation to forgive your lootocracy.

patttcom: fix the damn road . You are here wondering what people will say. what a stvpid comment.

We 'll say, what took the fuuls so long?

Nightshift: Chino11, Nwa Aguata(or Orumba) Merry Christmas! Enugu State has good administrators, don't worry for us, they will fix things accordingly.

Chino is like a mad woman who spreads her legs, looks at her naked toto and laughs heartily each time she peeps.
His underperforming governor is ready to gon after 7 years of emptiness, only promises and the goats are clapping for him? PATHETIC!

SEUN, JARUS AND OAM4J ARRESTED BY SSS FOR ETHNIC BIGOTRY.

People keep on decieving themselves that they know more than they really do.

The simplest way to get into naija politics is to...... put your head on the ground and raise your two legs up, that way you can reason at par with our politicians.

chino11: I don't know why Mr. GLOBE has chosen to be used by enemies. Dr. Andy Uba is from my town Uga, he is my kinsman. I should support him first before anyone else. But I have also seen the good works of Obi. Obi has drawn major economic players to Anambra and as at now more are still trooping to the state. If not for anything Obi was instrumental to coming on stream of Orient Petroleum and listing Anambra as an oil producing state, which OBJ couldn't do for Ndigbo. Obi brought Sabmiller, Krisoral Group, Orange Drugs etc. that has provided the much needed employment in Anambra. Obi has laid the framework for economic advancement of Anambra to join its leagues and economic mates as River and Lagos state. Infact am a direct beneficiary of it, my in-law got the high paying job at Orient Petroleum Refinery here in Awka. I have a cousin and a friend that got jobs at SABMILLER in Onitsha. You can see it goes round, one way or the other it will affect you. In the same vein so many other families are also beneficiaries.

I understand you, as your kinsman he must have grabbed una lands and bleeped a lot of your relatives. Sorry but Obi is a glorified failure.

chino11: nwanne mu I wonder oo..

Who is Sullivan? Was it not the same gov who has been away for 5months now. Has he achieved 1/10th of Obi's achievement. How many FDIs has he brought to his state? How has he tried to solve heavy unemployment plaguing enugu state today.

The truth is..........

There has never been an Anambra Governor that will be up to Jim, Chimaroke or Sullivan.

All you guys has been able to muster are mere charlatans and mediocres in the midst of plenty of human resources. Una dey craze? Cant you see? Is there any of you that is not ashamed of your dirty Onitsha or Awka village? Upon all una blessings in markets and parks, rich towns and billionairs and you are still the second to last Igbo state, only beating Abia only!

Charles C. Soludo for governor!

nagoma: Only the Catholics can do this for the country. The Pentacostal Pastors are Queueing up for their jets.

The catholics can do this ........ and other despicable acts too.

Pikin wey use him mouth to utter abomination will boast he told the elderly to his face.

vanstanzy: Haven't u heard of psychological battery. Physical battery is a waste and will only end up disfiguring or killing the woman.

If she doesnt kill you first.

OCTAVO: Pls tell them sir. I wish the men can think like this.

Just because he sounded like a woman wrapper?

tomzman: Some men prefer it to raising their hands to beat their wives.It's sort of a way of punising her.I mean after spending hours in the kitchen to prepare food for you, you then refuse to eat.That would hurt any woman.

Raising your hand to beat a woman, you will be surprised how many ladies are secretly taking karate lessons. Just try anything funny and you will spend the next few days in the hospital
