SIR,
greetings on another Tuesday ,a day we all know that brings a weekly
report card to you free from all charges and from the heart with a
passion for your political survival.
Today Sir, I want to complain
and it is about patronage of local manufacturers ,I wrote a piece on
DECEMBER 1, and here is an excerpt
“Onye isi, not attending that
unveiling function of INNOSON sent a blur message and it is not
encouraging to say the least ,but that is by the way ,your Deputy who
held brief for you promised that the state will continue supporting
INNOSON and patronizing him ,but Sir ,Currently we know that instead to
patronize INNOSON ,you bought over 50 CARS from TATA MOTORS INDIA ,and
we know that INDIA products are sub standard to compare with our own
INNOSON ,who is available to service the Cars he made, contrast that
with TATA bought from INDIA ,shipped to Nigeria ,cleared in LAGOS and
enrich LAGOS STATE ,hired YOROBA drivers to bring it back to AMAOBIA .If
you add all this Logistics to the actual cost of the TATA Car ,you will
see that it is economic waste.
Under your predecessor INNOSON
enjoyed a great patronage ,all the Schools in the state are testimony of
how good those Buses are ,they are durable and humming like HUMMER
BUSES.The Hilux truck was good enough for the federal government to
bought them and send them to our Soldiers who used them in Somalia or so
.Enugu state is using the Luxurious buses for Commercial services in
the state ,but our own state is buying TATA from India ?”end of quote
Sir yesterday the 6th of February you commissioned 40 TATA BUSES once
again for within the state transportation ,a very good idea but faulty
in so many ways ,I will tell us what is wrong with it Sir.
The Buses
you bought from TATA India will enrich the economy of Indians ,put food
on their individual and government table and INDIANS has no investment
nor idea where Anambra state is located in any giving Map ,but contrast
it with INNOSSON motors who we all know manufacture same BUSES and his
quality is Far higher than that of TATA ,not only INNOSSON is more
Durable ,it will cut cost ,such as –SHIPMENT from INDIA ,we all know
that the VESSEL THAT BROUGHT BACK THOSE BUSES will charge each one the
price of 40 Footer container ,then we multiply it by 40 pcs ,pay
Government duties for them ,pay the clearing Agent that will clear them
and pay the drivers that will drive them from Lagos to OKA .Sir ,had we
bought those Buses from Innosson ,I can guarantee that we would,ve cut
off all those silly cost and the best advantage of buying it from
Innosson is that ,we get maintenance free ,but if this TATA ever start
problems ,either we give out another contract to who will go to INDIA
and buy the parts or we will start seening the Buses litter along the
roads and causing havoc to traffic.
That brings me back to the
previous TAXIS that we bought which I complained about , Let me quote
that one also “Born Again Tuesday Report Card: A 2015 Rebirth “
“TRANSPORTATION -
Sir,I am sure you did not know that the Taxi you launched for easy
transportation in our state is going through the pipe line and which we
know that it may not serve the purpose it was bought and launched for as
long as it is in the pipeline.
Take for instance ,all the Taxis
were ceded to serving commissioners who took them off the Government and
sub-lease to others ,I heard that some got up to 5 and few 4 , the
question is, what are they doing with 4 Taxis , what will a serving
commissioner do with Taxi ? . Many packed theirs in there houses or
country houses ,waiting to change the colors back to private ,which is
not the reason the TAXIS where bought in the first place,obudu onye kwue
eziokwu anara ya IPAD ya ?.
The Taxis are suppose to be giving
directly to Drivers who will be direct beneficiaries, they will be
paying the state the mortgage as agreed ,that way the dividend will be
spread to the lower class ,but giving the Taxis to already made
Commissioners does not make any sense in the long run.”..end quote
Sir,the Taxis as we speak cannot be sighted any where in our state ,it
is not serving the purpose of the purchase but, the worst is that many
of those BIG MEN that bought them or should I say Take them ? I will use
take them for the simply fact that ,it seems the state GAVE 2 of the
Taxis to the Boss of MELOCH HOTELS ,same hotel that we accommodated the
40 THAILAND visitors that came to our state which we paid for their
flight ticket,accommodate them,feed them and may be give them envelope
too and at the end of the day they singed another MOU ,which we all know
can never be executed because the people akwunwuro ego Plane fa agaghi
ekwo agu afu onu. Moving on -The question buru zie ,ejiri the Taxis welu
me nmezi ?,I wonder why we should give such to a Rich man and he added
it to his fleet of Private Cars ,while the reason it was bought in the
first place was to ease transportation difficulties in the state.
Sir ,go to ABS OKA and you will see many of those Taxis that you flagged
off packed ,left untouched and abandoned at the premises and what are
they doing there ? how are they going to be useful packing and wasting
away ?.Sir ,those TAXIS are not TAXING ANYTHING,it might end up been a
wasted effort unless it is handled right by giving them to those that
will make use of it and it is only in Anambra state you cannot sight a
Taxi running inter city or within City ,if you ever see anything painted
with Taxi in Anambra it is ANIDS brand and the only language they
understand is DROP ,then ask them to drop you in your village and they
will ask you to pay the price that will be enough to buy a plot of Land
na OGBUNIKE,but I Digress.
That reminds me Sir,we have ANIDS
TRANSPORT ,TRACAS,ANAMBRA EXPRESS and now ANAMBRA MASS TRANSIT all with a
different board managing it ,but that is not the problem ,the main
problem is that ,THERE IS NO SINGLE PARK IN OKA the state capital for
this BUSES to make a stand or the Taxis to stand, so if one wants to
hire them or make use of the services ,where can one go to get the
services ?.
I heard that OCHA BRIGADE will be responsible for the
management of the NEW TATA BUSES and I wonder ,is OCHA BRIGADE no longer
working as sanitary outfit ? How can they handle something they were,nt
equipped to handle ? that is gross usurpation of function that will
fail as usual.
Sir ,lets look at states in ALAIGBO and see how they
handle this Transportation business ,ENUGWU has ENUTRACO and they have a
Giant park .
ABIA has her own and a big Park ,same with DELTA,IMO
STATE and one uniform thing is that they have only one state owned
transport company but how many do we have and what purpose are they
serving ?
MOVING ON –
Sir ,as we work toward election and
success of APGA candidates sorry I mean SIR VICTOR UMEH,S CANDIDATES
because it is only those he anointed that are running and if God Forbid
he wins ,he will become a SENATOR and also control all other elected
candidates and that will be when you will understand what is called god
FATHER ,he will make sure you sweat blood serving him and answering him
YES SIR ,I am not saying it might happen ,I am just telling you what
must happen but moving on,,,
Sir ,I know we are spending or we
mapped out 5 billion Naira to be used for this election ,which is good
and fine but sir ,I will not forget to mention to you that there are
CIVIL SERVANTS that are still being owed months of Salaries and just
imagine how they will feel that the state is burning so much money on
politics and yet they are not paid , moving on to ---THE PRESS CORP of
your own CONVOY are still been owed for 3 months and counting ,Sir ,this
men and women are the ones that will be with you where ever you go
,they must be at the Lodge before you wake up and left at later dawn of
the day ,they followed you to occasion and saw how good you are to
people and how much were spent on donations ,they witness how much we
are spending on this election and yet we still owe them STIPENDS that
cannot buy 1 CTN OF INDOMIE ? ,Sir, that is unfair if you ask me and
like I pleaded last time ,take out time and attend to this folks .I will
advise that this is same mistake our Rich men are making ,they treat
DRIVERS,SECURITY that Guard them ,Gate men with dis respect ,they don,t
pay them well ,they don,t even know their names or they have never
called them to ask them how are your family.
This same people
has our life in their own hands ,especially the security personnels ,the
Gate men and Drivers they are the ones that can save our lives and also
the ones that can be bought if neglected . We should pay this people
very well ,take care of their problems and treat them as humans ,so that
they can be proud of whosoever they are working for . Imagine the face
of your security if you call him by his name and ask him after his wife
by her name and his children by their name ,I bet you that he will mow
down any idiot that stood on your way ,but if you continue calling them
BIA DRIVER ,GATE MAN,MOPOL,SECURITY you are making them enemies within
,let them feel LOVE from you and they will
love you back .
POLITICAL SIGN ON =
Sir,from the onset of your tenure ,I begged you to get rid of the TOMB
RAIDER that he meant you no good.I told you that what he wanted is to
take away any political cloth you may have and left you naked and it is
happening now as we speak.
Imagine under one year you,ve gathered
enough powerful enemies that will bring waterloo ,imagine first it was
declaration of Cold war against the man that made you ,not only that he
brought you out from obscurity to place of honor ,from place of
retirement to utopian height .You should remember that even far back in
Fidelity that he took you out from 6th in Command and place you at the
Top of the Food Chain ,that alone would,ve made you to be ever grateful
,but I digress once again . He used his personal fund to make you the
Governor single handedly , which instead to refund him you start
un-necessary war that will do you no good ,my old man will say “onye isi
racha cha udara ozotara na ukwu,nya jee ka ozota ozo”[when ungrateful
blind man finish leaking the local apple called Udara which he got by
placement of his leg,he should go again to fetch another one ],what Tomb
raider wanted desperately is to make sure you are a one term Governor
and the agony of it is that you are singing AMEN with him .
Sir ,I will tell you frankly that Eze gburu Dibia na agworo ya ogwu ,na
ndi iro ya agwubero [The King that killed his witch doctor should know
that his enemies are not into extinct ].Moving on ,you subtly waged a
War against Abia state governor ,a man that has put in his days in his
tenure ? and you that is just coming wants to start a War with him ? ,I
will say ,that kind of war is not necessary at all because that may
take out time to hunt your tenure even years after you may have
forgotten .
Then back to Okwute ,you went to his own hood to
taunt him ? ,Sir ,now that his people has replied you by using stone
,pure water and pellets to drive you out of town ,what other message
will be more pronounced ?
All this is because you adhered to what
Umeh wanted or to help and project Umeh,s ambition and truly I tell you
the greatest mistake will be if Umeh became a Senator ,6 months after
you will dig up all my warnings and cry ,,CHEI this man advised me
oooooooooo and I kept deaf ears . My old man will say na anu obuna
tagburu Agu na ata ajo aru [any animal that bite a Lion to death must be
canine king] .Umeh has a catalogue of those he used and dumped and
adding you means nothing to him ,if he can do that to IFEANYI UBAH ,I am
sure he won,t think twice doing it to you with a smile
Signing off –
Sir ,I noticed that during this campaign your people and candidates on
campaign speeches always use words like “APGA GOVERNMENT HAS DONE
GREAT THINGS FOR YOU AND FOR THE STATE ,THEY BUILD YOU ROADS ,GAVE YOU
LIGHTS AND ALL THOSE STUFF, Sir,the state are not stupid ,they know that
CREDIT MUST BE GIVING to PETER OBI who did that ,even if you are in
enmity with him but there are things you can,t take away from him and if
you do ,the same thing will take away your political capital.
Those towns know that it was Peter Obi that did those things ,the best
part of it is to give him credit and move on ,that way it will make you
sound more understanding and people will not sneer behind you .I am
telling you all this because I like you and want you to succeed while
those pack of Ikwurigbas that always sing WILLIE IS WORKING are simply
after what they can get and they will only sing to you the song that
will make you put food on their table but my own song is the one that
will make the state better under you maka na obalu isi ,obalu aguba.
With the above submission ,I beg to go off and simply stay ON as usual
Mazi Odera
Truth is our standard,accept it in good faith or
we shove it down your throat.The Choice is yours.
I am off but on
