It's Correction2017-ngige Speaks About Anambra Gubernatorial Election by Kingsley10000: 7:14am On Jan 04, 2017 |
Like the last three government before it, the present
governor of Anambra state in the person of willie obiano
has been very busy – doing absolutely nothing for the
improvement of the state. A state with hard working men
and women driven by desire and passion to excel in
their fields of endeavor. An Anambra based journalist
once said that “the present governor is sitting on gold
chair and foundation casted by his predecessor enjoying
state funds on frivolities.” I have to agree by that
assertion and even more.
Anambra state has in the past been known as a state
commercially poised to be the best in sub-Saharan
Africa. With this great feat comes a challenge that needs
to be tackled so the status quo can remain. Such
challenge comes in the form of security lapses, bad or
non existing basic infrastructures, social vices,
hooliganism and cultism among others. The present
government is saddled with the responsibility of seeing to
perfection, the opposite of these challenges; but reverse is
the case.
So much noise and hype has been made in the media
about improvement in securing the lives and properties
of people living in the state. I throw out a challenge to
anyone who is willing though, to oppose me with facts,
that in terms of security, positive change has been
achieved.
Cultism and cult related killings are on the rise in the
state. Just the other day, three able bodied young men
were gunned down at the Obosi-Nkpor axis of the state
by cultists; even more and heinous killings have
occurred. To nip such ugly development in the bud, the
authorities need to re-orientate the youths on the ills of
cultism. Also, secret agents should be drafted into those
Red areas to furnish the appropriate authorities with
detailed information – as they unfold.
The issue of Agriculture in the state is moribund, as no
vital agricultural policy has been initiated by the present
government since inception into office. The man at the
helms of affairs takes pleasure in media propaganda and
public deception. We were all aware of the recent hype
and falsehood being peddled in the media about the state
exporting vegetables to foreign countries and earning
forex for the nation; and the mass production of rice.
The government thrives in such propaganda.
Until the Willie Obiano led government begins to focus on
revitalizing the Agricultural sector through policy reforms
and provision of Agricultural grants, we will continue to
see food – just on the pages on newspapers and
televisions. I implore Obiano to go learn such from his
northern counterparts.
There has been varying degrees of protest in the state on
reforms targeted at destabilizing the livelihoods of its
citizens. Recently, the fruits and vegetables traders at
Upper Iweka in Onitsha has been in the news protesting
of the ill treatments meted to them by the government.
Their nightmare started when the government, in the
name of cleaning the state, relocated the market and
chased the traders to a new site at Atani in Ogbaru
Local government area of the state, without putting in
place, structures to house the traders. On a visit to the
new site of the market by our correspondent, nothing
could be seen on ground in terms of development. No
physical structure is on ground, except for the fence and
gate put in place by the local government authorities and
the market executive.
The issue of multiple and over taxation as being
witnessed in this regime is well enough to make any true
business entity seek for relief elsewhere. During the first
quarter of the year, there was a stern warning by Banks
and other financial institutions operating in the state to
the government, threatening to go on strike if it does not
rescind its policy geared at extorting huge sums from
them – all in the name of tax. The poor traders in the
state are feeling the heat the most, as they must comply
with the wicked directive; else, their daily source of
feeding and livelihood will be shut down. From Eke
Awka to Oye Nimo, from Ose to Akuora, the story
remains the same; people are compelled to fund the lavish
lifestyle of the chief executive. Pure water hawkers,
okada men, barrow pushers, artisans all inclusive in this
excessive show of shame by the government. I urge those
in charge of policy making to take into consideration, the
plight of the common man. These people should be
considered first; not just during elections and
electioneering period. Willie Obiano is indeed a square
peg in a round hole.
Mr Obiano should get his acts together and strive to
make the state great. He should surround himself with
intellects and not the vultures hovering around him, to
scavenge on the commonwealth of the state. source: http://www.dubemnaija.com/2016/10/willie-obiano- square-peg-in-round-hole.html 1 Like 1 Share |

I don't think Ndi Anambra will fall for APC scam. If Ngige is too proud of his party, let him point at one Federal project that he has brought to Anambra that will help him oust Obiano. Any other party can win Anambra but not APC. 4 Likes 1 Share |

who's ngige? ngige should first resign as minister then contest I'll be glad to see him loose both the election and the minister position. to Obiano no grudges but am beginning to hate him because of his useless bastards media team like nonsobaba am sure he cannot afford to provoke anambarians sentimentaly because that's what people like ngige did that rendered them useless in anambra politics. Obiano needs to review his media team and tell them to focus on selling him online instead of creating unnecessary hatred among igbos. proudly ezigbo onye onicha proudly Anambarian igbo bu ofu (igbos are one) 3 Likes |

Anybody saying that obiano is not working is not telling himself the truth. Besides what has Ngige drawn to the state with his ministerial position? And before he starts eyeing the highest seat in Anambra state he should resign, only then will he be taking serious. All these ones he is ranting are just flimsy noise of rumors. 5 Likes |

apc can never win anambra but obiano is under performing compared to Peter obi plus over taxation and he's widely seen as a drunk and chronic womanizer.anambra election would be highly interesting as another pdp or another party might win depending on the strength of their candidate. pro biafra sentiments is against apc and might likely work against obiano. |

greenermodels:over taxation? i thought he abolished taxes....he said" In response to their plight we came up with an Economic Stimulus Package that seeks to make critical interventions in four broad areas, namely – the Tax Relief Programme, the Special Intervention Programme for Small and Medium Enterprises, the Social Intervention Programme for Low Income Households and finally the Intervention in Infrastructure-for-Jobs. Madam Speaker and Honourable Lawmakers, in pursuit of this, we effected the following: We suspended collections of wheelbarrow and hawkers taxes across all markets in the State. We suspended the sale of consolidated emblems across the State. We reduced taxes for Okada and Keke riders to N50 and N200, respectively. We banned all illegal levies across all Government owned primary and secondary schools in the State. We offered employment to over 250 physically challenged graduates into the State Civil Service. Through our Partnership with United Nations Development Program, we trained and empowered 200 persons living with disabilities. We provided low interest facilities totalling N1.5bn through Anambra State Small Business Agency to support Small-Medium Enterprises and Micro enterprises. We have also reached advanced stages in our quest for additional funding to scale up our efforts in this regard. We catalysed domestic productivity and are creating jobs and stimulating our local economy across 181 communities in the State through our highly applauded N3.6bn Community-Choose-a-Project Programme." |

Ngige can never, will never ever govern Anambra state. Even if he's ordained by the pope. His time in Anambra politics is over and out.. And he knows... Apc just want to test their popularity in the east to prepare for. 2019 rigging. But they've failed. Oh mpa is still hanging on his gun at bridge head. So long that stature is there..APGA will keep ruling the state. |
