Obiano deserve 2nd term –ex-commissioner

Speaking to Daily times in Osumenyi, Nnewi South Local Government Area of the State, the ex-commissioner said if people critically examine what Obiano has done in the last three and half years he has been in Office, they will know that Obiano is a winnable candidate in November 18, 2017 election.

Dr. Akubuogo said within two months of mounting the saddle, Obiano was able to dismantle the kidnapping and robbery, assassination, 419 in the State, stressing that Upper Iweka in Onitsha which was impassable has now become sanitized with 24 hour street lightening.

He said “Obiano is one of the few Governors that pay workers and pensioners, salaries and even local contractors their debt. He is paying Local Government workers. Recently, he signed the gazette for the payment of pension and gratuities of retired staff of Anambra State Broadcasting(ABS) and National light”.

In the provision of infrastructure, said the former Commissioner who is a chieftain of All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) in the Local Government, Obiano has no rival, asserting that Awka has been elevated from a rural capital to a metropolitan city found in the first world countries.

“He has given 279 communities N20 million each to build projects of their choice. He is giving out the second round of N20 million for those communities who have finished their first projects. He has also given N10 million each to all the markets in the state to build a project of their choice. How many governors in the past have done that” he said.

In the area of agriculture and education, the governor has done tremendously well, with Anambra producing such items as vegetables exported to Europe and rice sold outside the state, while pupils and students for the state school system are doing well in all the external examinations due to sound educational policies of the state.

“I don’t know who again that is more qualified for this position than Obiano. He is a good leader, good manager of men and materials. He has managed our money very well. I recommend him for a second term. He is qualified more than any other candidate in this election” said Dr. Akubuogo.
