Be Obident With The Figures . by Afamed: 10:43pm On Jun 13, 2022
1. Chief Willie Obiano has revealed that contrary to the sanctimonious posturing of his predecessor, former Governor Peter Obi, the state was saddled with a huge domestic debt of N127 billion when heleft office in March 2014.

2. the N127 billion debt came mostly from the 101 road contracts that the former governor hurriedly awarded at the dying minutes of his regime without making any provision whatsoever for them in order to create probles for his administration from the very first day.

3. He mentioned the last minute employment of 6000 workers without provision for their welfare as well as the various hotels and independent power projects which he had no plans to complete.

4. Obiano’s revelation came on the heels of the growing inconsistencies in the figures being thrown up by Obi which have left many discerning observers wondering just how much the former governor actually left behind.

5. Obi’s sudden volte-face from his earlier declaration that he handed N75 billion cash to his successor and his declaration at the flag off of the PDP campaign in Onitsha yesterday that the actual amount he handed over was N48,626 billion.

While delivering an address that has been mostly dismissed by political analysts as suicidal, Obi was caught on camera saying “when I was leaving this place, we left in savings N26bn. We set aside for important projects, N23,629 billion. If you put the two together, it will come to N48, 626 billion.”

6. For instance, Obi’s reportage of the 16.5% equity stake in emenite, a fibre cement roof and ceiling manufacturing company set up by the premier of the old Eastern Region, Dr M.I. Okpara, which was shared between the five states that made up the as part of the trumpeted investments he had handed over to Obiano is nothing but pure fraud.

7. Observers also complained that it speaks volumes about Obi’s vaunted integrity to realize that he also reported that he had invested the sum of N3.5 billion in Interfact Beverages Limited, when in reality what he invested was N1.4 billion only. This followed Obiano’s announcement that his administration would soon revise the discrepancy to reflect the actual equity stake of the state in the company.

8. Other dead bodies buried in Obi’s handover note include the N9 billion involuntary investment in the Nigerian Independent Power Project, conceived in 2004 by the Obasanjo regime which the Federation Account was charged to fund on behalf of the 36 states. One wonders how this investment could have found its way into Obi’s phantom savings that he handed over to Obiano in cash.

9. Other components of Obi’s “famous” N75 billion cash handover include the N4 billion estimated value of the land resources of Anambra State on which the oil installations of Orient Petroleum Resources stands which he “cleverly” converted into the state’s shareholding in Orient Petroleum Plc and quickly reported as his own wise investment while in actuality, the only investment in the company when Obi handed over was the N100 million invested by former governor Chris Ngige who also issued the C of O for the land.

10. Another embarrassing falsehood reported as part of the N75 billion cash handover is the Federal Government refund to Anambra State on the repair of federal roads in the state which stood at N10 billion during Obi’s regime.

It smacks of utter mischief to report this debt owed the state by the Federal Government as a part of the cash handover as the Federal Government has yet to clear the debt while the Obiano regime has responded to more distress calls on federal roads in the state, pushing the debt overhang now to N43.8 billion to date.

Peter Obi is so honest that some of his detractors are starting to believe his successor whom they called a drunkard and who was locked up by EFCC to the general applause of most Nigerians? grin

This news article and many others are mere fabrications by brown envelope journalists who has got frustrated after digging fruitlessely for bad news about peter Obi for the past 4 years.

Peter Obi is honest, just, meek, humble, gentle, kind, compassionate, tough, morally upright, firm and yet decisive against corruption.

We all should vote for Peter Obi. Nigeria will experience a massive boost to its economy which will translate to more profits which will create more infrastructure for the masses and provide the enabling environment to do business and make profits.

God bless Nigeria.

FUNDAMENTAL ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE (PARTIAL LISTING)

1. 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.

2. For the first time in the history of Anambra State, Ambassadors and High Commissioners of notable countries such as United Stated, 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.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. The Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria rated Anambra State as the most financially stable state in the country.

7. 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.

8. 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.

10. 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.

11. 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.

12. 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.

13. 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.

14. 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.

15. More than 700 buses were provided to secondary schools in the State by our Government.

16. Boreholes were provided in schools all over the State.

17. Numerous classrooms were built in all the 177 communities of the State.

18 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.

19. 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.

20. 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.

21. 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.

22. His Administration conceived and built, from scratch, the first state-owned Teaching Hospital, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu teaching Hospital, Awka.

23. 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).

24. His Government attracted the World Bank support on erosion - National Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP) - to Anambra State.

25. His Government was the first to do Poverty Mapping in Nigeria, as a guide for the effective implementation of our poverty-alleviation strategies.

26 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.

27. During his tenure and with his Government's support, Anambra State became an oil producing State.

28. He built the first Secretariat Complex to house State Government Ministries that were hitherto scattered around the State.

29. 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.

30. 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.

31. 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.


*PRUDENT RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AND SUPPORT OF LOCAL ENTERPRISE GROWTH.*

*1*. Peter Obi stated that he supported INNOSON by ordering 1000 Vehicles from his factory. These facts are verified. I expect the social media trolls to learn from Peter Obi and replicate this in abuja and the 36 states in order to grow local production and consumption.


*2.* Peter Obi stated that he reduced his convoy from 22 to 5 vehicles and you cannot buy fuel unless he is in the car". These facts are verified.

*3*. If I sleep in a hotel and have to pay N250k a night, I will be awake all night...feeling like I was robbed". - Peter Obi. verified fact . Tell your governor to stop blowing your state funds in expensive hotels with his aids . Let them learn from Peter Obi.

*4.* "We handed schools back to Churches and by 2013, we were number one in WAEC."- Peter Obi . This is a verified fact . Rather than hate Peter ,put pressure on your governor to improve education in your state and make your public schools habitable and decent to learning. Some of the public schools that Peter Obi helped Missions to fund , produced kids , who went to the US to win global science competitions . Facts .

*5.* Peter Obi stated that he did not allow his wife and children abuse state funds or engage in pay to play as First Lady and Children . These are verified facts. His wife was hardly seen parading the corridors of power . Peter Obi's only daughter is more beautiful and educated than some of those kids of the powers that be who spend tax payers money to attend UN functions. Peter clearly separated/ shielded his office from family meddlesomeness, unlike those who could not keep to their campaign promises to put their wives and children under leash . Peter never alloted anambra lands to himself, his wife, children and inlaws. It is on records. Facts !!! Unlike the Bandits that converted state lands into private estate . Go to Imo and Lagos and see for yourself what land banditry means.

*6.* Peter Obi built infrastructure, attracted conglomerates and new enterprises into his state , paid all outstanding salaries , wages and gratuities as at when due and still saved N75billion in liquid assets and cash . This is verified fact . Pressure your governor to at least pay salaries to poor workers before you come on facebook to run your stinking mouth on Peter Obi.

*7.* Peter Obi paid down up to N35billion of the huge debts he inherited and never borrowed neither did he owe anyone.

Peter Obi did not sell any state owned assets to raise chop money for politicians , rather he added more . Rather than hate Peter Obi pressure your governor or those in Abuja to account for what they did with all the homongous funds they borrowed without any commensurate infrastructure to show for it .

*8* Anambra state is the most poverty free state in Nigeria (not Lagos), under Peter Obi reign. According to national bureau of statistics, Peter Obi maintained that record and won awards from MDG for the sustained growth.

*9*. On several times and occasions, Peter Obis mandate was stolen and truncated. On each occasion , he fought his way to the supreme court to reclaim his mandates . He never threatened anyone with the blood of baboon and monkeys . No one was killed defending or opposing his mandates . As a true democrat , he abided by the rule of law .

*10.* Peter Obi revoked a N400m contract to build a Presidential mansion in Anambra state , when most states profligately wasted funds on such jamboree . He abolished state houses in Abuja and Lagos . He used N150milion that was supposed to buy him two bullet proof vehicles to as deposit to buy 50 Peugeot 406 cars for the executive , and Judiciary . Please instead of hating Peter kindly ask your governor and the Political Bandits you worship to go to him and learn Prudence.

*11*. Peter Obi was presented a budget of N32million for him and some people to attend the World Igbo summit in the US but he threw it out and mandated only one person to attend at a more reduced amount . But under the current FGN one minister took same amount to go to China . Please send these men to Peter to learn common sense in prudence.

*12*. Finally, for some of the poverty minded jesters ,( who assume that every wealthy man is a rogue) and who accused Peter Obi of building a NEXT mall in Abuja as evidence that he looted Anambra state , kindly note that as far back as 1993. Peter Obi was already very wealthy . He learnt entrepreneurship from his mum , who is a well known wealthy woman in Anambta state .

*13.* The Next Group of companies he owns is over three decade old . Peter Obi as far back as 2004 was the highest shareholder and Chairman of Fidelity Bank PLC. He did not borrow money to fund his campaign or buy Party nomination forms. He did not depend on roguish looters to fund his campaign , unlike those in Abuja . He funded his own campaign hence , was able to avoid looters or godfathers stealing anambra money unlike the current jamboree in some states and Abuja.

*14* Peter grew his wealth prudently and did not depend on governments as his source of wealth , hence , he knows the value of Money and how to grow money .

*15*. If you desire to know how the likes of Peter Obi, and other very few development minded political leaders leveraged on their positions of influence to support their enterprises without looting their state FAAC, JAAC and IGR allocations like some of the demented kleptomaniacs we have in our states , I can help you with free tutorials . Not every politician is a mindless looter. There are still few that create wealth for their states and people .

*16*. Note also that Peter Obi did not set up any private SPV and tax consultancy outfit to rip off 20% from every IGR collected in Anambra state , neither did he appoint/ force his daughters and wife into public places to be harassing and slapping innocent and helpless citizens.

*17.* Peter understood the importance of education and knowledge, hence, his constant quest for more . Thus , he attended some of the best schools in the world and supported quality education in his state , unlike the fossils and gerentocrats , who never added one jot of knowledge in years and do not know the importance of education .

*18 .* To a majority of the ignorant and sentimental folks , who are all over the social media to discredit an apt and timely message to us as a people , I leave you with this parting words from Okwute himself ....

*"I beg you to participate more in politics, the society we help them ( the oppressive political class ) abuse today will take its revenge tomorrow"* - Peter Obi

*19*. Peter Obi has offered himself to serve. He is not going to force himself on anyone . 2,000 years after , it is still very glaring that the current generation have not yet learnt their lessons . They will still choose their barabasses over those, who came to save them . Please go ahead to nominate and elect your bandits ... but kindly note, remember and let it be at the back of your minds, that the day the terrorists stopped the Abuja to Kaduna train, they did not ask those they killed and kidnapped if they were Igbos , Yoruba , Hausa , Fulani,Ijaw , Muslim, Christian, Hindu etc, before they gunned them down or abducted them . Whatever you wish Nigeria and support will surely happen to you one way or the other

27. During his tenure and with his Government's support, Anambra State became an oil producing State.

28. He built the first Secretariat Complex to house State Government Ministries that were hitherto scattered around the State.

29. 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.

30. 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.

31. 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.


*PRUDENT RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AND SUPPORT OF LOCAL ENTERPRISE GROWTH.*

*1*. Peter Obi stated that he supported INNOSON by ordering 1000 Vehicles from his factory. These facts are verified. I expect the social media trolls to learn from Peter Obi and replicate this in abuja and the 36 states in order to grow local production and consumption.


*2.* Peter Obi stated that he reduced his convoy from 22 to 5 vehicles and you cannot buy fuel unless he is in the car". These facts are verified.

*3*. If I sleep in a hotel and have to pay N250k a night, I will be awake all night...feeling like I was robbed". - Peter Obi. verified fact . Tell your governor to stop blowing your state funds in expensive hotels with his aids . Let them learn from Peter Obi.

*4.* "We handed schools back to Churches and by 2013, we were number one in WAEC."- Peter Obi . This is a verified fact . Rather than hate Peter ,put pressure on your governor to improve education in your state and make your public schools habitable and decent to learning. Some of the public schools that Peter Obi helped Missions to fund , produced kids , who went to the US to win global science competitions . Facts .

*5.* Peter Obi stated that he did not allow his wife and children abuse state funds or engage in pay to play as First Lady and Children . These are verified facts. His wife was hardly seen parading the corridors of power . Peter Obi's only daughter is more beautiful and educated than some of those kids of the powers that be who spend tax payers money to attend UN functions. Peter clearly separated/ shielded his office from family meddlesomeness, unlike those who could not keep to their campaign promises to put their wives and children under leash . Peter never alloted anambra lands to himself, his wife, children and inlaws. It is on records. Facts !!! Unlike the Bandits that converted state lands into private estate . Go to Imo and Lagos and see for yourself what land banditry means.

*6.* Peter Obi built infrastructure, attracted conglomerates and new enterprises into his state , paid all outstanding salaries , wages and gratuities as at when due and still saved N75billion in liquid assets and cash . This is verified fact . Pressure your governor to at least pay salaries to poor workers before you come on facebook to run your stinking mouth on Peter Obi.

*7.* Peter Obi paid down up to N35billion of the huge debts he inherited and never borrowed neither did he owe anyone.

Peter Obi did not sell any state owned assets to raise chop money for politicians , rather he added more . Rather than hate Peter Obi pressure your governor or those in Abuja to account for what they did with all the homongous funds they borrowed without any commensurate infrastructure to show for it .

*8* Anambra state is the most poverty free state in Nigeria (not Lagos), under Peter Obi reign. According to national bureau of statistics, Peter Obi maintained that record and won awards from MDG for the sustained growth.

*9*. On several times and occasions, Peter Obis mandate was stolen and truncated. On each occasion , he fought his way to the supreme court to reclaim his mandates . He never threatened anyone with the blood of baboon and monkeys . No one was killed defending or opposing his mandates . As a true democrat , he abided by the rule of law .

*10.* Peter Obi revoked a N400m contract to build a Presidential mansion in Anambra state , when most states profligately wasted funds on such jamboree . He abolished state houses in Abuja and Lagos . He used N150milion that was supposed to buy him two bullet proof vehicles to as deposit to buy 50 Peugeot 406 cars for the executive , and Judiciary . Please instead of hating Peter kindly ask your governor and the Political Bandits you worship to go to him and learn Prudence.

*11*. Peter Obi was presented a budget of N32million for him and some people to attend the World Igbo summit in the US but he threw it out and mandated only one person to attend at a more reduced amount . But under the current FGN one minister took same amount to go to China . Please send these men to Peter to learn common sense in prudence.

*12*. Finally, for some of the poverty minded jesters ,( who assume that every wealthy man is a rogue) and who accused Peter Obi of building a NEXT mall in Abuja as evidence that he looted Anambra state , kindly note that as far back as 1993. Peter Obi was already very wealthy . He learnt entrepreneurship from his mum , who is a well known wealthy woman in Anambta state .

*13.* The Next Group of companies he owns is over three decade old . Peter Obi as far back as 2004 was the highest shareholder and Chairman of Fidelity Bank PLC. He did not borrow money to fund his campaign or buy Party nomination forms. He did not depend on roguish looters to fund his campaign , unlike those in Abuja . He funded his own campaign hence , was able to avoid looters or godfathers stealing anambra money unlike the current jamboree in some states and Abuja.

*14* Peter grew his wealth prudently and did not depend on governments as his source of wealth , hence , he knows the value of Money and how to grow money .

*15*. If you desire to know how the likes of Peter Obi, and other very few development minded political leaders leveraged on their positions of influence to support their enterprises without looting their state FAAC, JAAC and IGR allocations like some of the demented kleptomaniacs we have in our states , I can help you with free tutorials . Not every politician is a mindless looter. There are still few that create wealth for their states and people .

*16*. Note also that Peter Obi did not set up any private SPV and tax consultancy outfit to rip off 20% from every IGR collected in Anambra state , neither did he appoint/ force his daughters and wife into public places to be harassing and slapping innocent and helpless citizens.

*17.* Peter understood the importance of education and knowledge, hence, his constant quest for more . Thus , he attended some of the best schools in the world and supported quality education in his state , unlike the fossils and gerentocrats , who never added one jot of knowledge in years and do not know the importance of education .

*18 .* To a majority of the ignorant and sentimental folks , who are all over the social media to discredit an apt and timely message to us as a people , I leave you with this parting words from Okwute himself ....

*"I beg you to participate more in politics, the society we help them ( the oppressive political class ) abuse today will take its revenge tomorrow"* - Peter Obi

*19*. Peter Obi has offered himself to serve. He is not going to force himself on anyone . 2,000 years after , it is still very glaring that the current generation have not yet learnt their lessons . They will still choose their barabasses over those, who came to save them . Please go ahead to nominate and elect your bandits ... but kindly note, remember and let it be at the back of your minds, that the day the terrorists stopped the Abuja to Kaduna train, they did not ask those they killed and kidnapped if they were Igbos , Yoruba , Hausa , Fulani,Ijaw , Muslim, Christian, Hindu etc, before they gunned them down or abducted them . Whatever you wish Nigeria and support will surely happen to you one way or the other

Afamed:


1. Chief Willie Obiano has revealed that contrary to the sanctimonious posturing of his predecessor, former Governor Peter Obi, the state was saddled with a huge domestic debt of N127 billion when heleft office in March 2014.

2. the N127 billion debt came mostly from the 101 road contracts that the former governor hurriedly awarded at the dying minutes of his regime without making any provision whatsoever for them in order to create probles for his administration from the very first day.

3. He mentioned the last minute employment of 6000 workers without provision for their welfare as well as the various hotels and independent power projects which he had no plans to complete.

4. Obiano’s revelation came on the heels of the growing inconsistencies in the figures being thrown up by Obi which have left many discerning observers wondering just how much the former governor actually left behind.

5. Obi’s sudden volte-face from his earlier declaration that he handed N75 billion cash to his successor and his declaration at the flag off of the PDP campaign in Onitsha yesterday that the actual amount he handed over was N48,626 billion.

While delivering an address that has been mostly dismissed by political analysts as suicidal, Obi was caught on camera saying “when I was leaving this place, we left in savings N26bn. We set aside for important projects, N23,629 billion. If you put the two together, it will come to N48, 626 billion.”

6. For instance, Obi’s reportage of the 16.5% equity stake in emenite, a fibre cement roof and ceiling manufacturing company set up by the premier of the old Eastern Region, Dr M.I. Okpara, which was shared between the five states that made up the as part of the trumpeted investments he had handed over to Obiano is nothing but pure fraud.

7. Observers also complained that it speaks volumes about Obi’s vaunted integrity to realize that he also reported that he had invested the sum of N3.5 billion in Interfact Beverages Limited, when in reality what he invested was N1.4 billion only. This followed Obiano’s announcement that his administration would soon revise the discrepancy to reflect the actual equity stake of the state in the company.

8. Other dead bodies buried in Obi’s handover note include the N9 billion involuntary investment in the Nigerian Independent Power Project, conceived in 2004 by the Obasanjo regime which the Federation Account was charged to fund on behalf of the 36 states. One wonders how this investment could have found its way into Obi’s phantom savings that he handed over to Obiano in cash.

9. Other components of Obi’s “famous” N75 billion cash handover include the N4 billion estimated value of the land resources of Anambra State on which the oil installations of Orient Petroleum Resources stands which he “cleverly” converted into the state’s shareholding in Orient Petroleum Plc and quickly reported as his own wise investment while in actuality, the only investment in the company when Obi handed over was the N100 million invested by former governor Chris Ngige who also issued the C of O for the land.

10. Another embarrassing falsehood reported as part of the N75 billion cash handover is the Federal Government refund to Anambra State on the repair of federal roads in the state which stood at N10 billion during Obi’s regime.

It smacks of utter mischief to report this debt owed the state by the Federal Government as a part of the cash handover as the Federal Government has yet to clear the debt while the Obiano regime has responded to more distress calls on federal roads in the state, pushing the debt overhang now to N43.8 billion to date.

You have no shame nor fear of almighty God....rufai! Despicable evil soul!

Obi spent 10 billion to build federal roads in Anambra ,which was refunded to Obiano so tell me why he should not add that. That's a whole ten billion thrown at Obiano from nowhere.


Obiano squandered all savings left for him in building airport and ICC. These projects up to date we don't know how much was spent.

The same Obiano you people dragged and ridiculed is your source of these trash of a report....lol.

Let me tell you , everything Obi stated he achieved is verifiable....go verify
