*TRENDING WRITE-UP ON FATHER EBUBE MUONSO'S PROPHECIES*

The above write up trending on some social media handles should be ignored, even though it has inadvertently addressed the unfortunate issues raised by our respected and most revered clergy man, the Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministries, Uke, Rev Fr. Obinma, popularly called Ebube Muonso.

Governor Soludo would not be distracted from delivering good governance to the good people of Anambra state.

Prof Soludo, at all times, has respect for the clergy, the church and indeed all men and women of God and will not join issues with them

The Governor further enjoins the good citizens of Anambra State to go about their lawful duties without fear of molestation, assured that the security of their life and property is the main priority of his government.

Signed:

Christian Aburime
Press Secretary to the Governor.

Lastly,for the miscreants quoting and insulting their lame fathers concerning Anambra state Jobs...we will continue to state it that Anambra state jobs are for Anambra indigenes FIRST. And if u feel you’re not okay with that,pls go and tackle your respective lazy and incompetent governors on that.

Incompetent Abia gov has been given free ticket to the senate
Enugu gov same.

Pls go and tackle ur state govs on their incompetencies and leave Anambra state alone,,use same energies u use to nose poke into Anambra affairs on ur various states.
With that,we can be proud of a much more better south east region.

wizzyvibes:
Nah bro. This isn't right. The jobs should have been made open to Everybody. Look at Lagos for example, many igbos are government teachers there. It wouldn't be a good thing if Lagos had made these teaching jobs for their indigenes only. The anambra teaching Jobs should be for everyone as far as you are living in Anambra state.

The news I have been expecting for a long time. I also love the time line from bid to award of contracts. I hope the contractors would mobilise and start refuse evacuation immediately.

Well done Prof. Charles Soludo.

Anambra’s journey to officially becoming an oil-producing state began in 2013 when Orient Petroleum Company, a private firm enterred into partnership with the state government, and started producing oil in the Aguleri basin. But it is the Obiano administration which gave it impetus by designating Oil and Gas as his fourth Pillar of economic development.

Flowing from the governor's vision to make Anambra State the first choice investment destination and a hub for economic and commercial activities and the mission to create a socially stable business friendly environment where indigenes and non indigenes alike can engage in wealth creating opportunities. The state's passage of the Oil and Gas Development Agency bill and the setting up of Oil and Gas Advisory Board facilitated policy formulation for the sector and steadfast pursuit/ resolution of boundary issues, sustained negotiations with oil prospecting firms and relevant agencies of government as well as security of personnel.

In practical terms, Governor Obiano committed resources to stop the practice of accessing some oil prospecting facilities and wells in Anambra through neighboring states with the construction of the 280 metres Aguleri Otu bridge across Omambala river and the Umueje bridge. At Ogbaru Local Government Area years of illegal operations by Sterling Oil

Exploration and Energy Producing Company of India in Ogwuaniocha and Ogwuikpele were checkmated while at the Anambra East Local Government Area end, claims by Kogi State over some of oil wells are now subject to a fifty-fifty sharing formula, pending final resolution of the boundary claims.

Anambra's journey to oil bearing status is by no means easy, but the tough battle was surmounted thanks to Governor Obiano's wealth of experience in the sector, his doggedness, and deployment of competent hands on the task, the State is now officially an Oil Producing State. Consequently, in the books of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission, the state is entitled to 13% of the sale of petroleum resources from 11 oil wells in its territory, namely, Nzam-1, Alo-1, Ameshi-1, 2, and 3, and Enyie-1, 2 , 3 and 4.

There is no gainsaying the positive impact of the new status on the revenue profile of the state as well as the anticipated boost on infrastructural development programme of the government in the years ahead.

Interestingly, the Pillar One: Economic Transformation agenda articulated in The People's Manifesto by the Governor-elect of Anambra State, Prof Chukwuma Soludo keys-in perfectly into the next phase of consolidation on the achievements of the four pillars of economic development of the Obiano administration. According to the Governor-elect:

"We aim to transform Anambra State from a dorminantly informal commercial state to a Formal, Productive and Competitive Economy underpinned by rapid industrialization, Agriculture, Commerce, Entertainment/Leisure, and The Creative Economy, and Technology and Innovation, Solid Minerals and Oil and Gas."

All told, the building blocks of development for a safe and secure Anambra State laid under Obiano's blueprint for economic development
where everyone has opportunity to create wealth

It seems you don't understand what I'm saying. I'm just saying that government jobs FOR EVERY STATE shouldn't be for only indigenes of a state, it should be for everybody. Go around the southwest states (I'm sure of these states, can't say for others), you would see igbo people holding government jobs in the state. If these southwest governors decided that the jobs would only be for their indigenes, many igbos would be without a job. I have so many igbo friends and even family members that are employed in the civil service in these states, and they even hold big positions there.

Another thing you should understand is that if you want a state like anambra to be much more better than it is now, it must be able to accommodate everyone irrespective of your state or tribe or religion. As far as you are up to the task, you should be employed. Jobs should never be based on states but how well you can deliver.

Anyways, I've said mine. You can always counter it. We can as well agree to disagree. Thanks.

Landmack:


Has ur state governor finished accommodating u and her indigenes that u want Anambra to accommodate u. Charity they said begins from home. When last did ur state gov publish state vacancies for employment?

I’m sure u can’t tell me. These are d issues,this is why southeast youths are busy joining ugm and kidnapping for ransom,setting food trucks ablaze,rampant cult activity here and there. Me and u can’t come home in peace because of the insecurity in our region...our youths are jobless and now looking towards crime/fast way.

If every south east gov should sit up like Soludo,don’t u think things will be better for d region? Ediots like Ekpa will lose relevance as well.

Soludo Flags-Off Distribution Of 3.8 million Free Of Cost Mosquito-treated Nets

By Ejike Abana (ABS Government House Correspondent)

Anambra State Government has flagged-off the distribution of three-point-eight million insecticide treated nets to Ndi Anambra.

Governor Soludo performed the flag-off ceremony of nets which will be distributed free of cost at the Dr. Alex Ekwueme Square, Awka.

The distribution is carried out in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Health and Malaria Consortium.

The exercise will be door to door after the flag-off.

Professor Soludo, in his remarks appealed to Anambra residents not to take the exercise for granted

Governor Soludo who appreciated the magnanimous funding from the partners, said that it is a way to start the campaign and sensitisation program as a fore-runner to the distribution.

Governor Soludo said that it is part of the efforts to ensure healthy living.

Governor Soludo who stated that the lifespan of the net is about three years, revealed that the vaccination against malaria is being rolled out in the journey to zero malaria in Anambra state.

As a wake up call for everybody to get involved in the campaign, he called on women, Traditional Rulers, and Presidents General who he said will play a major role in mobilising the communities in the distribution process to minimize malaria, saying that there are several households who may not need the nets, but directed that households that need them should receive more than a net when the distribution commences.

He appealed to the distribution team to ensure equitable distribution of the mosquito nets.

Wife of the Governor, Mrs Nonye Soludo who was decorated as Net Ambassador, expressed delight in the honour and that households will be registered and given nets and asked everyone to make themselves available, by providing the relevant information for the distribution exercise which will commence from 2 - 17 August, 2022.

While enumerating some of the achievements by the present administration, the Commissioner for Health, Dr. Afam Obidike rehearsed that the distribution exercise is a fight for zero tolerance against malaria and pointed out that studies show that the use of nets is low in the state.

Dr Obidike explained that choosing such a time is informed by the fact that malaria increases during rainy season and stressed that Governor Soludo is determined to provide quality healthcare to Ndi Anambra.

While pleading with the government and people of the state to receive and make use of the nets, the West and Central Africa Programme Director of the Malaria Consortium, Dr. Kolawole Maxwell spoke on the public health impact of the malaria burden, saying that if the menace is eliminated, the economic benefits are immeasurable.

He stated that Nigeria is committed to elimination of malaria by 2025, just like other countries have done.

Symbolic presentation of nets to a few beneficiaries, featured at the event which was attended by the Ministry of Health, United Nations agencies in Anambra State, Wife of the Deputy Governor, Mrs. Oluchi Ibezim, Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Uche Okafor, Secretary to the State Government, Professor Solo Chukwulobelu, Head of Service, Barr.

Owo terror attack: Ohanaeze begins preparations for burial
By Osagie Otabor, Akure On Jun 8, 2022


The Ohaneze Ndigbo in Owo local government area has begun preparations for the purpose of taking corpses of its members who were killed in last Sunday’s terror to the Southeast for burial.

Four gunmen stormed the St Francis Catholic Church and killed many people while over 50 are receiving treatment for gunshot injuries.

The gunmen also threw dynamites into the church out of which two exploded inside the church.

Chairman of Ohaneze in Owo local government, Anayo Okorie, said they have commenced meetings to discuss on how to convey the bodies to their various states of the Southeast region.

“We are here to discuss the way forward for those that died. We cannot give you the actual figures of the Igbos that died because they were many.

“We are planning on how to take the bodies back home. It affected everybody that is why you see shops are still not open.”

Mr. Udo Blessing said the meetings would soon reach a conclusion on burial arrangements for the Igbos.

Business activities were still paralysed in parts of Owo community especially at the Owaluwa Street where the church is located.

A resident in the street Eugene said the shops were still closed because of the number of victims.

“Many of the shop owners are mourning ot taking care of love ones at the hospital. I was at home when the attack occured. I just hide myself somewhere.”

Go and rest this cowardly IPOB instigator!
Didn't you read how their own yoruba unknown gunmen went and took revenge on those killing Yorubas? Can IPOB do that for Igbos that were killed? Hell NO!

Silly noisemakers! All you know is to somehow find how to blame Igbo people, or manipulate them to take their money. You guys are truly bloody scammers!

Alaba int market traders have embarked on a ‘get your PVC’ holiday.
Yesterday Enugu youths cued up to get their PVCs
Same happened too at Owerri.


But Simon Ekpa the chief terrorist of ndigbo is busy threatening on how ndigbo won’t cast any vote come 2023.

I said all what Ipob has successfully done is to punish,kill,scam,intimidate ndigbo to the extent we have lost the remaining relevance we had especially at the national level.

Tinubu visited states for his presidential talks and left out southeast states. And I think more surprises will be coming for d region. Which is to tell us that our own way of politicking is clouded with bitterness and hatred. Those ediotic as even sane politicians no longer regard the region because of Ipob and their brainwashing of ndigbo.

Sleepy Igbo eligible voters are finally out there in d sun and under d rain fighting to collect their PVCs and all what Simon Ekpa the demonic saboteur of ndigbo could say was there will be no election in igboland.
My pple if that happens,that will be another eight years of super marginalisation of the region. Spread this message to wake our sleepy/brainwashed bros and sisters to go fight for their PVCs. It’s becoming obvious that we are losing politically and economically. Even as business minded pple, If u don’t get involved in electoral activities,a rogue will be installed who will dish out unfavourable business policies...and then finally u will shut down that ur business and hunger will strangle you.

Events of yesterdays has shown us that if u don’t work for it,nobody will freely/willingly dash it to u.
