ifyalways: lol
Ngige get "sharp and bad " mouth.

I expected someone from yhe audience to have used the opportunity to ask him where and when he ever practiced medicine

theoctopus: The election is not going to hold on NL. You people should stop saying crap. Your comments or opinions will not count. Just go about your regular business and stop having BP for something you have absolutely no control of. You will hear the result on TV and radio!

Chino48:


I have told my wife, that she should give me a break until elections are over. I have been spending both time and resources to make sure that the Islamic APC is humiliated. No Islamic Party is allowed access to the Zik's Place (Anambra Govt House).

NRI PRIEST: Ngige is a fraud and his association with apc made things worse. He stole Anambra mandate and set us back two yrs. He was never duely elected as a governor and he is one of the reason why Anambra is still where it is, today. I m getting unease and I can't wait for Anambra to put his political career to rest.

me_for_you: Why are yoruba people with their lagos-ibadan press axis forcing ngige on anambra people? Ngige did well as gov last time, no doubt. But he stole d senatorial seat from prof dora with the help of fake medicine sellers at onitsha head bridge. And his senatorial record is zero. If the good people of anambra can't get soludo solution, they should at least get some one else. APC has no root in the south east and that's QED.

[size=14pt]Ngige, Obiano Disagree over Anambra’s IGR Profile[/size]

27 Oct 2013

By Charles Onyekamuo 


All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the November 16, governorship election in Anambra   State,  Senator Chris Ngige, and his All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) candidate, in the same election, Chief Willie Obiano, at the weekend sharply disagreed over the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) profile of the state.

While Ngige said that the state’s IGR has nose-dived from the about N400 billion annually during his 34 months stint as governor to between  N 300 and N350 billion in the last seven years plus of the APGA administration in the state, Obiano said it has improved to about N 600 billion. The occasion was the Anambra 2013 governorship debate organised for candidates of political parties participating in the election by Silver Bird Television (STV) at Emmaus House Awka, the Anambra State capital at the weekend.

Besides, the  two other  candidates who participated in the debate included Prof. Ogochukwu Akanegbu of the United Progressive Party (UPP) and Barrister Godson Okoye of the United Democratic Party (UDP).

Ngige, who was answering    a question on what will be his source of generating funds internally outside allocation from the Federation Accounts traced all the revenue windows open to the state through which he said he was able to raise the state’s IGR profile to over N 400 billion yearly and pledged to create more windows.

He said he only earned about N 100 billion from the federation account in all his budgets as Governor and was able to tar about 120 kilometres of durable roads in 34 months, up graded and equipped hospitals and got about 13 courses accredited at the state owned University by the National Universities Commission (NUC) as against the over N3 trillion he allegedly said was collected by the Peter Obi administration, yet was not able in the last two years to complete the tarring of Onitsha – Atani road that would have taken just six months to execute.

Afam4eva: The way i see it, Obiano doesn't have a plan for Anambra. he just wants to get in and then try his luck. It can be seen in the way he answers question using evading tactics by only giving bland answers to questions. I inferred this when he answered questions on Twitter yesterday. As far as this debate goes judging from what i'm reading here, i think Ngige nicked it. But we know debates don't win elections in Nigeria as majority of the electorate are not even aware that a debate took place. What will determine the winner of this election is their popularity and that of their party. Ndi Anambra, unu jiri ire unu guo eze unu

Afam:

I think you missed the point. Willie Obiano never wanted to be the governor. He was drafted by Gov. Obi for some reasons best known to them.
How do you expect him to have some plans when he never planned to be in the position anyway?

We know those that want the seat---Ngige, Ubah, Uba, Soludo, Obaze, Nwoye, Ukachukwu and other charlatans.
When I think of Obi and Obiano, it reminds me of Obj and Yar'Adua. The semblance in the character of the predecessors and the
ignorance of the successors is very glaring in both the federal and gubernatorial elections.

Obiano just wants to wing it to the government house. That is wobble and shuffle to the coveted position with the fund donations (bribery ) prowess of Gov.Obi

Ngige's greatest undoing is running under the banner of APC which Igbo people are viewing with suspicion considering the top echelons of the party who are mostly northerners, muslim or Yoruba. Had it been that Ngige is running under LP or PDP or even freaking PMP, he will cruise straight to victory.

info@lpf:
Senator Ngige showed up almost 30 minutes late for a nationally televised debate! If it was a job interview, I would have shown him the door!
I don't know about you all, but to me that is disorganized, at best, incredibly disrespectful at worst!
Either way it is unacceptable, under any circumstance, from a Chief Executive candidate.

SMH.

sagombugo: If its true that the IGR of Anambra as at now is even N600m in 7yrs that Obiano calls it...that is very poor because even Osun that is not as commercially developed as Anambra currently does 1.5Billion in 2years from N700m that Oyinlola left it

sagombugo:

So it is a sin to be a muslim or a Yoruba and a Northerner? The problem is that some people cant see beyond the immediate. Despite the fact that it has been proven that Igbos also have 9 slots in the 35member APC exco and a ratio 18 muslims to 17 christians yet some people rather than cross check all these facts will choose to hold on to falsehood

You advised Ngige to contest under PDP,the same party that is gasping for breath at the moment and a party that does not allow their brilliant and best candidates who are independent-minded to taste power without being teleguided in a Godfather-like situation?

It is a great pity that rather than the Igbos to start thinking about having alternatives to PDP/APGA alliance by having a leg in another NATIONAL political party,you continue to denigrate your sons and daughtas who have foresight to see what most of you are not seeing

Since the last time Dim Ojukwu contested for Presidency under APGA which you people even refused to vote for him up till now the NdiIgbo have continue to allow ethnic bigots and selfish,corrupt politicians to hold you to ransom by perpetually keeping you under political servitude using this same weapon of seeing the Yorubas and Hausas as your enemies whereas they know how to make their own money

God bless you my brother you nailed it there.

OMO THE LAND SLIDE GO MADT

nyabingi: APC (Arewa Peoples Congress)knew that Ngige is marketable so they used him to perfect their plan of extending their Jihad to Igbo land, Ndi Anambra pls shine ur eye and avoid the mistake Imo state made by voting Rochas who had a northern agenda, he spent all his life in the north some even say he converted to Islam.

Chuksphil2go:

ewu ofe manu...Anambra is making N600M monthly while Osun is making N1.5B yearly ur here comparing ur poverty heaven to Japan of Africa

kapai: If you check your record, you will realize that the famous Igbo sons and daughters were born and brought up in the North such as Eze Igbo gburugburu and Owelle of Onitsha (ZIK OF AFRICA) and so many others. During those days, there is nothing like tribalism .I pray u faze d fact over the credible candidate to govern our state instead of politicking the whole issue over party APGA.if APGA as stated were for the interest of igbos,what could have stopped them from producing presidential candidate in d last election instead of endorsing a ready made package PDP candidate....Dont be far from the truth

FreeGlobe:
well unlike rochas, Ngige was born in Anambra and has spent all his life there. APC is not our problem, bad governance is

fellory:

Young man Anambra's igr hovers around N350m monthly.3 times lower than Osun state's 1.5b.He is only saying Anambra has a potential to do more.See link below

kapai:

...so despite the 8 yrs successive effort of Mr OBI,[undertone cameleon]i guess ur claimd relation in office still left the workdone zero....
OBIANO / OBI = A No
this is the lastest equation
Better wakeup &
say no to APGA

eeeh yaa!.

chocopearl:

would u rather prefer Anambra to be in a mess for d next 4-8yrs to being mocked for a year at most??
Vote obiano/ngige/uba/others according to their capabilities and nt based on their political parties.

highmood: Ziks place ko Ziks place ni. How does Ziks place looks compared to Awolowos place in the west. I thank God Ngige made mentioned of the three places in Anambra that could make Anambra great. ONITSHA, AWKA, NNEWI, AGUATA in addition. But in this present admin, how does this places looks like? Nothing to write home about. Mr. Ngige is a son,of the soil and I believe no Ibo man in any party whether from the west or north will sell us to them even if they are blind and we deaf. And if I may ask, how does this APGA of a party bettered ur lots since its formation? Mind u, u have a wife and just like a title of one of Chukwuemeka Ikes novel "our children are coming". What would u tell them when other states have gone beyond growth and are heading towards development? Would u blame the politicians or would ur blame ursef for canvasing for a wrong party rather for the right person.

naptu2: Ngige: to the professor. You say you are the most educated because you have a PhD, I don't know whether it's in music or what. You did a course that's 4 years, while I did medicine, which takes a longer time. How can you say that you are more educated than I am?

Odenigbo Aroli:

You are kidding me! They want APC to win Anambra so they can mock us.

opalu: Ngige is d real man!!!!!! Meeeeen
