That officer should be dismissed and his kind should not be found near the police... Such ethnic profiling and hates makes us want to demand our exit from the Nigerian state...

Strengthening Democracy Through Inclusive Voter Registration

Yesterday, after attending the graduation ceremony of the Millennium College of Nursing Sciences in Awka, I visited an INEC Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) Centre in Enugu.

I was pleased to witness an orderly and well-organised registration process. I also met a number of people patiently queuing to register, demonstrating their commitment to participating in our democracy. I commend the INEC staff for their dedication and professionalism.

I, however, urge INEC to extend the Continuous Voter Registration exercise to at least 90 days before the General Elections to give more eligible Nigerians the opportunity to register and participate in the electoral process.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

The Fulfilment of Investing in Education

I was delighted to attend the maiden graduation ceremony of Millennium College of Nursing Sciences, Awka, an achievement that reflects the power of vision, commitment, and investment in human capital.

What gave me the greatest joy and fulfilment was learning from the Provost, Mrs Chisom C. Ezulike, that the initial support I provided served as the seed funding enabling the institution to commence operations seamlessly.

I was equally pleased to learn that my subsequent interventions significantly contributed to making today’s historic graduation possible. There is no greater satisfaction than seeing a small act of support blossom into an institution that is transforming lives and strengthening our healthcare system.

Nothing is more fulfilling than witnessing a modest investment in education grow into a thriving institution. Today, that same institution has graduated 116 pioneer students, who achieved a remarkable 100% success rate in the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria Professional Examination. This serves as yet another reminder that investments in education and healthcare are the most reliable investments in our nation's future.

I commend the pioneer graduating Class of 2025 and extend my congratulations to the Proprietor, management, faculty, benefactors, and everyone whose dedication and sacrifices have made this notable milestone possible.

Let us continue to invest in education, healthcare, and human capital development, for they remain the most assured paths to national progress and sustainable development.

They are unpatriotic and shameless

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

I struggle to understand public officials who proudly celebrate sending their children abroad while the schools they oversee are collapsing.

It's not about whether they can afford it. They have every right to spend their money however they choose.

It's about emotional intelligence and leadership.

Publicly celebrating your escape from a system you are responsible for fixing sends the wrong message to millions of families who have no such option.

The goal of public service shouldn't be to build an exit plan for your own children.

It should be to build a country where every parent's child has access to an education so good that leaving becomes a choice, not a necessity.

That's the standard we should demand.

PRESS RELEASE

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

One of the reasons I share almost everything we're doing in the South East is simple:

I want you to copy it.

If a strategy gets more children learning, gets more students excited about STEM, raises academic standards, or inspires excellence, don't admire it from afar or criticize Alex. Replicate it in your region. Improve it. Scale it.

Africa has spent too much time protecting ideas instead of spreading what works.

I don't want the South East to be the exception. I want it to become the template for Africa civilization.

Imagine every region in Nigeria building its own Olympiads, ranking schools, training teachers, identifying talent, and making education a public movement.

Imagine every African country adapting the same ideas to fit their own realities.

That's how continents change.

Education is Africa's greatest opportunity. If something works, copy it.

Today, we received a delegation from Utopia, an Egyptian pharmaceutical company, led by Dr. Kamel Mohamed and facilitated by Eze Apostle Gift Chibuzor Chinyere.

I am excited about their proposal to establish a drug manufacturing plant in Abia State. Beyond selling products, this is about production, job creation, technology transfer, and boosting our State’s GDP.

As a government, we are committed to supporting this investment. Land will be provided, and we encourage consideration of the Ukwa or Osisioma axis, where steady power supply from Geometric Power is available.

This partnership has the potential to make Abia a hub for advanced pharmaceutical technology in Nigeria and West Africa. Our administration will give every necessary support to ensure its success.

"As a governor and as an individual, you can't speak for everybody."

Governor Alex Otti says Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State can only express his personal support for President Bola Tinubu's re-election and cannot speak on behalf of other South East governors or the people of the region.

Yesterday, we commissioned the second Smart School in Abia State at Umuomaiukwu, Isiala Ngwa North LGA, alongside our Special Guest of Honour, renowned writer, scholar, and poet, Prof. Okey Ndibe.

I reminded our pupils that, with world-class learning facilities now available to them free of charge, they have every opportunity to excel. I encouraged them to embrace hard work, ask questions, remain curious, and strive for excellence—assuring them that outstanding performance will be rewarded with local and international scholarship opportunities, as well as other incentives.

Our Smart Schools are strategic investments in the future of our children and our State. Equipped with artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality, adaptive learning technologies, renewable energy, 24-hour internet connectivity, CCTV surveillance, and a dedicated wellness room for girls, these schools are designed to prepare our children for a rapidly changing world.

I also warned against the vandalisation of public facilities. Every Abian has a responsibility to protect these investments, and anyone found destroying government property will face the full weight of the law.

I appreciate Prof. Okey Ndibe for his inspiring remarks and kind words of encouragement. I also thank Hon. Collins Iheonunekwu, Pastor Caleb Ajagba, Elder Goodluck Ubochi, Mrs. Lydia Ezihe Onuoha, and Chief Mrs. Orieji Okwara-Emele of Blue Giraffe for their contributions and steadfast support for our education transformation agenda.

Education remains our greatest investment. Through these Smart Schools, we are nurturing a new generation of innovators, problem-solvers, and leaders who will shape a brighter future for Abia State.

Why the voter registration exercise should be extended.

As we continue to encourage Nigerians to participate actively in our democracy, I respectfully appeal to INEC to consider extending the voter registration window to the latest practical date that still allows adequate time for the preparation of a credible voters’ register before the 2027 general elections.

Every day, more young Nigerians attain the age of 18 and become constitutionally eligible to vote. They are not just our future; they are stakeholders in our present. It would be unfortunate if many of them were denied the opportunity to exercise their civic responsibility simply because the registration process closed long before the elections.

Moreover, this position is legally supported by the High Court judgment delivered on 22 November 2022 in Anaja Salmat & 3 Others v. INEC (Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1342/2022). In that decision, the Federal High Court held that voter registration should continue until 90 days before a general election to protect the constitutional voting rights of eligible Nigerians.

I appreciate the enormous responsibility placed on INEC to deliver free, fair, and credible elections. I also recognise the need for sufficient time to clean the register and make the necessary logistical preparations. However, our electoral process should, as much as possible, maximise participation rather than limit it.

A democracy is strengthened when every eligible citizen has the opportunity to be heard. I therefore urge INEC to adopt a registration timeline that protects the integrity of the process while ensuring that no eligible Nigerian, especially our young people, is unnecessarily disenfranchised. -PO

Just In: In an ongoing investigation, the ICPC uncovered 908 ghost workers across federal ministries, dept’s, and agencies, recovering over ₦942 million in ghost salaries. The Nigeria Police Force had the highest number of ghost workers, 508.

Jigawa State uncovered 6,348 ghost workers earning ₦3.7bn annually, in 2024.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

One thing I noticed while studying countries with some of the world's best public education systems is this:

In Germany, many public office holders confidently enroll their children in public schools because they trust the system.

In Nigeria, most public office holders enroll their children in private schools or in schools abroad while the public schools they oversee continue to deteriorate.

That has to stop.

You cannot build a world-class public education system when the people responsible for it have no personal stake in its success.

Imagine the speed of reform if every governor, commissioner, local government chairman, legislator, and senior public official knew their own children would sit in those same classrooms, learn from those same teachers, and use those same facilities.

Nothing creates accountability faster than shared consequences.

This one that calls himself #6, whom I call a horseman of the apocalypse, was given N1b (N780m is you back out VAT) to empower his State'

He WASTED it on buying "evangelical" instruments for churches, giving N5m per church. Not to schools or hospitals owned by Churches but to buy microphones and speakers for the "yoot".

N1b will put working electrify all the schools and hospitals in his LGA ooh, but horseman don't have a developmental mindset.

35,705 students have registered for the 2027 South East Maths Olympiad!

Boys: 16,569
Girls: 19,136

Registrations by state:

Anambra: 2,258
Abia: 8,281
Enugu: 8,491
Ebonyi: 6,919
Imo: 9,756

This year's competition will now include both Mathematics and Science (optional), with a single registration covering both.

Our winners will represent the country at the International STEM Olympiad in Lisbon, Portugal, and the Singapore Maths Olympiad Finals in Singapore in 2027.

Following the competition, we will also rank the educational performance of the South Eastern states based on the average assessment results.

The entire South East is building remarkable academic momentum, and it is inspiring to watch.

We will broadcast the competition live on Afia TV, and I will also try to secure a live broadcast on Arise News.

It is now the biggest academic competition on the continent.

Remember, participation is completely free and is open to any child who lives in or attends school in the South East.
