‘How I Spend My Bribe Money’—Gov Obi

https://www.nairaland.com/238375/how-spend-bribe-moneygov-obi

Governor Peter Obi of Anambra state has said unlike other public officers, he channels his bribe money into bettering the lot of the people of his state.

Obi, who spoke with journalists in Awka, the state capital, last weekend, explained that since contractors would always want to part with some percentage of their profit, he has devised a means to channel the “kick-back” into welfarism programmes.

In less than three years in office, the governor said he has been able to save N350 million through this process, proceeds of which, he said, are pumped into the acquisition of 50 taxi cabs and 50 buses donated to the people of the state to alleviate transportation problem.

“They will always come to say ‘thank you’ with huge sums of money. At first, I was rejecting it, but I gave it a second thought and came to the realisation that the money is the state’s money and can be beneficial to the people of the state. Today, the 50 yellow buses and 50 yellow taxis you see plying various routes in Anambra state are as a result of this effort,” he explained.

The governor, who said he rejected the proposal of two bullet proof vehicles valued at N150 million upon assumption of office, explained further that it was the money that he used in acquiring 50 Peugeot 406 cars on direct purchase from PAN, at a cost of N3 milllion each.

The vehicles, he said, were given to his commissioners and permanent secretaries who had no official vehicles as at the time he took over. The Anambra state governor is, however, changing his mind on the use of bullet proof vehicles, an idea he earlier jettisoned, especially as another election year is approaching.

“I have ordered for a bullet proof car valued at N25 million and have been paying the money since June last year and very soon, the car will be delivered to me,” he said.

He also said it has become necessary to acquire the bullet proof car because of the turbulent and peculiar political climate in Anambra state, adding that, “with election approaching, I can’t afford not to acquire the bullet proof car.”

Speaking on the forthcoming election, governor Obi said it is time for Iwu to go. “We can’t trust Iwu’s INEC to conduct elections in Nigeria in general and Anambra in particular. I suggest we hire the Ghanaians to come and conduct elections for us. That is the only time we can be sure of a free and fair election in Nigeria. If we can’t emulate America, let us, at least, emulate Ghana,” he emphasised.

On the issue of godfatherism in Nigerian politics, he said “we must gang up to kill godfatherism in Nigeria politics, adding that it is for the purpose of those who gang up to loot the common wealth of the people. The only weapon which they have and which they have always used is rigging.”

According to him, in a free and fair election, he would win his opponents clean and clear because the downtrodden, grassroots people of the state have identified with him following his development projects and road construction across the length and breath of the state through the Anambra State Integrated Development Strategy (ANIDS).

Unbelievable !!!

This self-admitted, certified Anambra thief, Obi, and his running mate, international thief, Atiku, want Nigerians to trust them with our national treasury?

That will never happen.

These two thieves, Obi and Atiku belong in jail and if they are in China would have been executed by now, and cannot come back from the grave to insult our intelligence, that they want to be trusted with our Commonwealth.

Wailers may be in sane, but Nigerians are NOT insane!

A madman or insane is one who wants to keep doing the same thing and keeps expecting a different result.

Your country have been stolen dry by the likes of Peter Obi, who admitted collecting bribes and his partner in looting, international thief, Atiku and you still support them to build your roads, hospitals, refineries, power, etc.

Are you not in insane?

Anambra born and raised.

Obi is the biggest crook governor in the history of Nigeria.

All his fake roads, he admitted collecting bribes from his contractors all collapsed in 6 months or less.

The real icon of Anambra development is Fmr Gov., Dr Chris Onwa Ngige. Virtually all the roads Ngige built are as solid as new.


In addition...

In China you collect bribe as public official and they will cut your head off and you cannot come back to collect another bribe!

Yes you' re right Obi cannot change after publicly admitting to collecting bribes.

Well you can hire Obi & Atiku to guard your resources, but Nigeria will never ever allow these two thieves to guard our Commonwealth

There is something people don't understand anymore....

We have less than 25% people to convince before the elections....

Who want to vote buhari or Atiku has made up his or her mind...
And the common man on the streets will be the determining factor........
Those 25% aren't here....they are in the rural areas.....

Most of Anambra people loved Ngige more than Peter Obi. Anambra state have a good road today is all because of Ngige, he paved the way, but Ngige has lost his popularity since he joined APC.

You're correct.

However, why should we continue supporting a patently corrupt pdp that cannot boast a single motorable federal road in the greater Eastern Region states of South South and South East?

The west hedges their support to almost 50-50 on APC and pdp.

Why must our people all our eggs in one corrupt pdp basket?
