Dear Reno,
This write-up relies more on rhetoric than truth, and collapses under basic scrutiny.
First, poverty statistics cited are selective and misleading. Poverty data in Nigeria is not measured annually at state level, and the figures quoted (2003 vs 2009) ignore national economic shocks, federal allocation structures, and the fact that Anambra under Obi consistently ranked among states with the lowest debt, highest savings, and strongest investment climate. Correlation is not causation.
Second, taxation under Peter Obi was not “taxing poverty” but formalising revenue to end the era of touts, illegal levies, and private collectors exploiting traders. Market reforms were resisted—as reforms always are—but they replaced chaos with transparent, harmonised taxes that funded schools, hospitals, and roads without borrowing.
Third, the Pandora Papers did not indict Obi for corruption, tax evasion, or illegality. His assets were declared and explained. No court, locally or internationally, found wrongdoing.
Finally, governance is judged by outcomes: Obi left office with billions in savings, zero salary arrears, improved education and health indices, and no debt. That is fiscal discipline, not hypocrisy.
Criticism is fair—but rewriting history to score political points is not.
Cheers, Ambassador in waiting.

I am glad to share that I've been recognized as the "Most Impactful Personality" by the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria (PSN). This prestigious award is a testament to our transformative efforts in Anambra's health sector, and I'm grateful for the trust and support of the people.
As we continue to drive change and improve healthcare outcomes in our state, I'm reminded of the importance of a regulated drug market in the fight against fake and substandard drugs. This is why we have made remarkable investment in building a Coordinated Wholesale Drug center to phase out the current chaotic open drug market in the State.
I look forward to exploring ways to empower our community pharmacists and address the gaps in knowledge and awareness within community settings.
Thank you again to the PSN for this recognition, and I am committed to continuing our transformative work in Anambra!
May Anambra continue to win!
