Debunking The lies of James Eze, the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Obiano on his write up celebrating the Governor’s 5 years in office titled:
Obiano’s 5 years: What we don’t often remember.

James Eze blocked me because I always punctured his lies, and because he couldn’t engage me in any intellectual discourse.

I would want anyone who can, to convey this to him.

Obiano had no clear plan when he was coming in as the Governor of Anambra state, as he jettisoned the 4Cs that was used to campaign for him immediately he assumed office.
His vision was already blurred by excessive consumption of alcohol.
So I wonder where James got Obiano’s concise plan and blueprint he talked about.

Insecurity stood between Anambra and greatness for 2 decades and half of its existence?
There were security challenges in Anambra state, and the entire Southeast at large, but they were solved and Obiano inherited a peaceful and secure state, which he hasn’t been able to build on the gains he met, as crimes have returned in full force in all the cities of Anambra state.

Obiano refocused Anambra state from Commerce to Agriculture?
This is actually the most laughable thing in the write up, as Commerce and Agriculture had always ranked high in successive administrations in the state.
Meanwhile, James didn’t list the things Obiano did in Agriculture and how he refocused the state from commerce to Agriculture, other than mere rhetorics.
Is it the Ugu, nchuanwu, and yam exports that were outright lies?

How did Obiano adopt proactive measures to insulate the masses from recession?
Is it by selling off all the dollar savings that Obi kept?
Meanwhile, it was Peter Obi who foresaw the recession, and saved for it in line with Okonjo Iweala’s advice and left almost a 100 billion naira for Obiano in the coffers of the state.

When Boko Haram terrorists were moved to Ekwulobia medium Security Prisons, Obiano was silent, and it was the cries of the Anambra masses and the alarm we raised on the social media that brought the matter to the fore.
We have not forgotten!

It’s on record that Obiano didn’t pay any visit to the flooded communities, except when the Vice President Osinbajo came, and he had to accompany him to assess the impact of the flood.

Obiano was the only governor that rolled out realistic Economic stimulus package to stave off agony and squalor from the people?
Can James please tell us the economic stimulus package because Ndi Anambra are not privy of any?

Obiano was the first to arrive the scene of the Ozubulu massacre?
So this is an achievement too?
Why then is he the Chief security officer of the state?
Meanwhile, Obiano issued a statement at the scene of the massacre, even before police investigation, telling Nigerians it was a drug war that spilled from South Africa, and later denied it again.
No smart leader would say a thing like that before police investigation.

So going to Tanker explosion scene at Upper Iweka, accident scene at Finotel Junction, and fire outbreak scene at DMGS Roundabout Onitsha are all achievements of a Governor in 5 years?
You guys are really shameless!

There was no deep gulf between the two major Church denominations in Anambra!
Anambra churches were all flourishing and relating well before Obiano came in, hence he was overwhelmingly voted.
He has actually caused a rift In churches, as the Anglicans protested over his high handed abuse of power in the state.

We still remember vividly how Obiano handled the herdsmen killings in Omor, as he mandated Omor community to pay compensation to the herdsmen, when their cattle ate up the crops cultivated by the farmers.
Was that a recommendation of the committee he set up?

Under Obiano’s watch, age long disputes between communities have been managed?
Like fraying the nerves and nearly igniting the Umueri/Aguleri war again, by trying to annex Umuleri to Aguleri his town because he is the governor?

Obiano has even created more problems as regards the Traditional stools of communities, as he threatens the withdrawal of Certificates of Traditional Rulers who doesn’t support him.

All in all, The write up of Obiano’s Chief Press Secretary marking the 5 years of the Governor was empty, and filled with outright lies and fabrications.
Where are Obiano’s achievement in 5 years as the Governor of Anambra state?
Those are the things Ndi Anambra needs to read and see, not just mere rhetorics on the internet as usual, while there is nothing on ground and in reality.
Willie Obiano is a colossal failure!

THE SECOND COMING OF TYRANT BUHARI:

A murderous dictator Buhari has risen again!
The affliction rose yet again, but we that believe in the powers of the Almighty God knows he won’t last forever, and that joy comes in the morning.

We tried all we could to have his claws nicked, but just like the popular say: “giving the monkey water to drink is not a problem, but retrieving the cup from him”; he rigged his way out.
Just like a dictator he is, he subverted the will of the people, and clutched tightly on power.

He successfully sacked a democratically elected government through military coup, and he has bastardized our democratic institutions once again.
It’s not a new thing for him to hold on to power at the detriment of the lives of Nigerians.

Buhari’s rise is but momentary, because he must be removed through the courts.
Nigeria must forge a New Democratic path, and the last hope of the common man would be the decider.
But before he is removed, he would definitely continue from where he stopped.

People like us that have opposed him from 2015 are already immune to the sufferings that comes with him.
Those who thought he was fighting corruption, and those whose eyes are just opening should tighten their seatbelt!

There would be more killings, as they have already started.
Job losses would definitely get to the next level.
Businesses would fold, as the stock market lost hundreds of billions of naira immediately he was announced winner.
There would be penury and Nigeria would slide further down as the poverty capital of the world.
There would be brazen looting by the saints!

There would be a lot of surprises, as the cabal will ruthlessly deal with even their allies.
They have nothing to lose again, and they would unleash evil and wickedness on the people.

He has already said his second tenure would be tough, and he meant it would be tougher than the first.
He would show why he is a dictator, as he has nothing to lose again.

Just like every tyrant, Buhari’s end would be terrible!
Just like a Downpresser man, there would come a time Buhari would run to the sea, and the sea would be boiling.
He would run to the rock, and the rock will be melting

The land he is standing upon will cave in and swallow him.
He would be driven away like the wind blows away the chaff.
He would be melted just like the wax melts before the fire.

That’s when he would realize that:
Power is transient, and no power lasts forever!
Kingdoms crumble, and empire falls!
Tyrants, and dictators fall never to rise again!
