Hahahahahaha it's obvious they have nothing against this man. the mai gaskiya himself nwoke obi ya di ocha mr "go and verify"
They tried using tribalism card, that one has already failed because this youth movement is WAZOBIA they tried using fake news and information, faa faa foul because the man himself is "mr go and verify" they gat nothing against him on corruption because Nigerian ROCK is the mai gaskiya and incorruptible man. they now result to childish tantrums. hahahahaha. we told you guys before that they have no manifestos to campaign with apart from their usual old tribalism and tribal card. they would have had an easy campaign with Osinbajo on the ballot because I wonder how a sane person will be campaigning against Osinbajo. the only thing you can have against Osibanjo is his party and nothing more. but few times he headed things he proved himself within same party. Nigerians would have has a tough choice to make between Osibanjo and Obi but they made the choice easy for the youths and the youths have chosen to pull themselves out of suffering from those who wish to molest this country "TURN BY TURN" Suffering knows no tribe or religion THE YOUTHS ARE COMING!!!
Anambra was the first State to commence Sub-Sovereign Wealth savings, the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa. At a time many other Governors were leaving huge debts, I left the equivalent of $500 million Dollars in investment as well as local and foreign currency, including $156 million in Dollar-denominated bonds.
For the first time in the history of Anambra State, Ambassadors and High Commissioners of notable countries such as United States, Britain, Russia, European Union, South Africa, Belgium, Israel, the Netherlands, Canada, among others, visited the State. Before my tenure, Anambra was practically a pariah state blacklisted by the Diplomatic Corps and international development partners.
Development partners such as UNDP, UNICEF, the World Bank, DFID, the European Union etc., which hitherto were not in Anambra State started working with the State. Anambra was consistently adjudged one of the best states in development partnership and commitment to reforms for good governance.
He was recognised as Best Governor by the Millennium Development Goals Office (OSSAP-MDGs) and the UNDP in the implementation of their programmes in Nigeria.
The Nigerian Debt Management Office (DMO) rated Anambra as the least indebted state in Nigeria.
In spite of visible and measurable achievements recorded in various sectors, the State under him did not borrow or raise bonds for her various projects.
The Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria rated Anambra State as the most financially stable state in the country.
The State’s ground-breaking return of schools to their original owners – Voluntary Agencies (Churches) on 1st January 2009, and subsequent partnership with the Agencies in Education, saw the State move from 24th position out of 36 States to Number One in National Examination Council (NECO) and West African Examination Council (WAEC) examinations for three consecutive years. This made the World Bank to commission a study, led by the renowned Prof. Paul Collier of Oxford University, on this revolutionary partnership and phenomenal achievement. The State also entered into strategic partnership with the Churches in the Health sector. This symbiotic relationship resulted in a tremendous boost to health care because of the services offered by health institutions owned by Voluntary Agencies, while the State restored grants to the agencies and made available to them more than 50 million Dollars in various types of support.
Through partnership with the Church in the Health sector, his Government funded the transformation of:
a: Iyienu Hospital, Ogidi;
b: Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Ihiala;
c: St Charles Borromeo Hospital, Onitsha;
d: Holy Rosary Hospital, Waterside, Onitsha; and
e: St. Joseph Hospital, Adazi-Nnukwu. His Government also built the Joseph Nwilo Heart Centre in St. Joseph, Adazi-Nnukwu, where heart operations are now being performed.
His Government won the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (1 Million dollars) as the best-performing state in immunisation in the South-East. With complementary funding from our Government, they used the money to build 10 Maternal and Child Care Centres across the State, particularly in rural communities, in partnership with the Churches.
The State was the first to procure and distribute more than 30,000 computers to secondary schools, including 22,500 from HP. The Managing Director for Personal Systems Group HP Inc, Mr. FabriceCampoy described the deployment as the biggest of such projects in the Middle-East and Africa.
Anambra State Government provided Microsoft Academies to more than 500 secondary schools, which the Head of Microsoft in Nigeria (Mr. Ken Span) described as the biggest such deployment in Africa so far.
The State provided Internet access to more than 500 secondary schools, which the CEO of Galaxy Backbone (Mr. Gerald Ilukwe) characterized as incomparable to any in the country.
More than 700 buses were provided to secondary schools in the State by our Government.
Boreholes were provided in schools all over the State.
Numerous classrooms were built in all the 177 communities of the State.
17 As part of the efforts to turn around the economy of the State, a number of companies were attracted to build their facilities in the Anambra State. A case in point is SABMiller, the 2nd largest brewery in the world, which built their first Green Field facility in the State, which is today one of the most successful facilities they operate globally.
A number of other companies followed the SABMiller initiative and were all supported and encouraged under our Government; a good example is INNOSON Motor Manufacturing Company, from which our government bought more than 1,000 vehicles.
Anambra State for the first time started close collaboration with recognized government security agencies (the Police, Army, Navy, Department of State Security, Civil Defence, among others), offering them various types of support including provision of more than 500 security vehicles. The improvement in security was phenomenal, such that the former IG of Police (Abubakar Mohammed) lauded Anambra State for not witnessing any bank robbery in my last three years in office. To further enhance security, Anambra State provided at least one security vehicle to each of all the 177 communities in the State as well as various organizations such as markets and Churches.
His Administration conceived and built, from scratch, the first state-owned Teaching Hospital, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu teaching Hospital, Awka.
His Government commenced the planned development of the Igbariam Campus of the ChukwuemekaOdumegwu-Ojukwu University, including the fencing, construction of internal roads, electrification, construction of the Faculty of Law, Auditorium, Administrative Block, Faculty of Agriculture, Management Building, among others).
His Government attracted the World Bank support on erosion – National Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP) – to Anambra State.
His Government was the first to do Poverty Mapping in Nigeria, as a guide for the effective implementation of our poverty-alleviation strategies.
His Government, for the first time, undertook the aerial mapping of Awka as well as the production of Structure Plans for Awka Capital Territory, Onitsha and Nnewi. During his tenure and with his Government’s support, Anambra State became an oil producing State.
He built the first Secretariat Complex to house State Government Ministries that were hitherto scattered around the State. His government commenced the development of the ‘Three Arms Zone’ comprising Government House/Governor’s Lodge, Legislative Building/Speakers Residence, and Judiciary Building with Chief Judge’s Residence. By the end of his tenure in 2014, more than twelve (12) health institutions, including two hospitals, had secured accreditation; when we took off in 2006, no health institution in Anambra State was duly accredited. Anambra State was the first to undergo national peer review, which scrutinised State Governments for good governance, through the State Peer Review Mechanism (SPRM), an initiative of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum in collaboration with the DFID.

Can you bring all this to Twitter for intellectuals and Facebook, for proper enlightenment. But I'm still studying all this, ọshe for bringing this out.
JAMO4REAL1: U can't compare the work of obiano with Peter obi, obi didn't nothing in anambra the best Governor in anambra so far is obiano if u talk of infrastructure education salary charity etc
You are just an Olodo who hasn't been to Anambra state, Anambra progressed because there was continuity btw Obi and Obiano, Obi laid every foundation Obiano enjoyed during his tenure...Infact, Obi worked magic in Anambra state to the point when he presented an unknown Obiano to the masses as his successor there was literally no objection apart from desperated people like Tony Nwoye of PDP...
post=113795506: Peter Obi built Anambra state university Igbariam from scratch and was fully accredited before he left Office, Obi single handedly built Anambra state university teaching hospital Awka, with other projects he did all these without borrowing or owing workers, pensioners or gratuity, still invested billions for Anambra in different companies and saved 75billion in different banks, Anambra state university is the only state university that's not on strike because of how Obi positioned before he left office.
Aje...
You started well but ended it like make I see u and dash u slap... University of ilorin dey go strike.

Your choice of words are giving you away. Say what you can defend. Exaggerating these so called achievements doesn't achieve anything.
You said "...a number of companies were attracted to build their facilities in the Anambra State". The only company you mentioned is SABMiller. What are the "number of companies that were attracted to build their facilities in anambra"?
Again"A number of other companies followed the SABMiller initiative". The only company you mentioned is Innoson. Pls what are the other companies?
All I am saying give us a credible report That Anambra used to be 27... Give us a report WAEC sent to the state board that proves Anam is 27..
Any governor or politician cud come out and say anything abt his tenure..... It is allowed but show us the report atleast...
If I see it, I wunt question u further
Lol see them, tomorrow they will say dem de top SE in education. They don de see contrary facts, they are now asking us to help them prove that Anambra was doing badly in education.
Doing excellently is no more an achievement to them, na carrying last
JAMO4REAL1: U can't compare the work of obiano with Peter obi, obi didn't nothing in anambra the best Governor in anambra so far is obiano if u talk of infrastructure education salary charity etc
U better remove that cobweb covering your eyes...with all those facts listed above, goan bring Obiano's achievement and let's do a quick comparison from how PO met the State and how Obiano met it... U people will just want to hate for nothing, i no know wetin u wan gain
You started well but ended it like make I see u and dash u slap... University of ilorin dey go strike.
Na u gan gan be otu wey no wise....He said the only State University, shey UNILORIN na State University. Always read to understand before u open mouth and attack people's submission. Lazy yoot
JAMO4REAL1: U can't compare the work of obiano with Peter obi, obi didn't nothing in anambra the best Governor in anambra so far is obiano if u talk of infrastructure education salary charity etc
maestroferddi: Ogbeni can you disclose how many accounts you deplore to disseminate falsehood and defeatist propaganda here?
Is it not a grievous tragedy that a person like you who ought to know better allowed primordial sentiments to becloud your sense of objective evaluation?
You know that Peter Obi has sterling qualities and hands-on practical skill set to change the political and economic fortunes of Nigeria...
The only grouse you have against him is that he is an Igboman for whom you have a mortal fear.
One would expect you to help in disabusing the minds of your kinsfolk given your relative exposure but whosai!
Surprise us Ogbeni and be a detribalised Yorubaman.
Peter Obi"s will initiate a cycle where the best among us emerge to be our leaders.
Awolowo made his name as an intellectual...Can you say that about Tinubu?
Do you see we Igbos extolling the likes of Rochas and Orji Kalu?
tiree gbosa for you. thanks a lot. dudue is aa tribalistic bigot that thinks his bullion thiefing thiefnibu can be shoved down our throats the way they shoved him down the throats of Lagocians. we are Igbos, we know what we want and we go for it, not like yolobas who are d biggest psychophants and 2faced humans who only stands with money and fake respect. problem is we know your type, but keep deluding yourseld. even if Tinubu wins d elections, does it truly transform to victory for Nigerians? Really? The only thing that can make him win is if the election is rigged, because, i cant just imagine pple voting a candidate who can barely stand on his feet. una never see something you are telling us that a man who masterminded the killings at the lekki toll gate that claimed the life of many of our youths should lead us, and not just just, he can barely move his hands without shaking, how do you want him to carry Nigeria, we will certainly crash. enough said, you better go n clear your brain of all the webs tinubu has loaded inside it or you no soon recognize your face in a mirror
He s in Egypt in the quest for more knowledge. You people in ekiti are looking for money to grease your palms. And una no go see am.
Who is in Ekiti? Mr man are you these dumb?
Oh heaven when did average igbo became this senseless for God sake? Bia Nnwanne read what you posted. *He is in Egypt for more knowledge*. Which knowledge is in Egypt?
So in islamic country is where he is seeking knowledge? Biko knowledge about what? Oh sorry or you don't wanna be Jewish again but Egyptian now baa?
Bia nwokem kindly go search and bring back your senses wherever you threw it off or sold it off to because you sound so unstable pls.

Crixxx: For urchins to be measuring Lagos achievements with that of Anambra an ordinary state with no federal presence speaks volume. I'm proud
No mind them, most people are just gullible of facts and truths. Imagine comparing a former Capital of the Federal Republic to a messed up State b4 Obi took over. Me i will always say it, any Aboki man will do well as a governor in Lagos State bcoz every structure and plan has been in existence b4 the 90's.
Everything Governor Obiano achieved in Anambra during his tenure were made possible by Peter Obi. He saved-up the funds that Obiano used. OBI left 1billion Dollars in reserve for Anambra State; Obiano left N300m. Just compare
I am a strong critic of Peter Obi, but this you have posted....I want to study it. I am angry with your fellow supporters cos non of them has ever published this. Even Peter Obi himself kept talking like a m0r0n ...branding himself like a saint.
Once again, thanks for this. Now, we can start evaluating Obi.
But hope you know you're a fool for quoting the whole thread. Why are you people so moronic in nature?
Reading this thread still shows the same deep sated ethnic issues you all always fuelling online..the same way nnamdi kanu made the mistake of thinking he can achieve biafra alone.he abused yorubas called them animals in a zoo before he realised it to late that unity and love is key.. You all saying obi is good and the best thing right now,is it only ibos that will make him president?? You all abusing anyone you deem is against your obi thinking they yorubas,are you saying all ibos will vote obi?? I can tell you with a fact that 50% of ibos will vote pdp.. instead of you all to cajole,unite,placate so as to have the majority votes that will destroy the northern cabal,you ibos choose to abuse,denigrate and count as inconsequential anyone who tries to have a discussion on here. there are sane yorubas,highly placed and educated with millions of followers put together that wont vote tinubu, but you ibos attitude both here and on twitter( which is even worse ) is what will make those yorubas just stick with the tribal card.
They angle for a fight at the outset....But when they get thoroughly beaten, you still hear some suppressed noises they make in a futile attempt to save face.
Do us a favour....Go call your dudes who have been asking of Mr Obi's scorecard only to avoid this thread like a plague...
You're the one dragging the issue.
Also you just describe what you're doing.
He simply asked you where is the evidence pre-obi tenure that shows Anambra is 27th. So simple and stop this story
