Peter Obi gave out 500 buses to schools in Anambra, he did that 13 years ago. All the buses were manufactured locally by Innoson.
Wike was the Minister of State for Education back then. He personally joined Governor Peter Obi to witness & flag off the distribution of computers, generators, & school buses to all the secondary schools in Anambra State.
Peter Obi donated ₦2.65 billion towards a Microsoft Academy. Then he launched a Microsoft connectivity program. He distributed 30,000 computers (including HP laptops).
He provided thousands of teachers with Microsoft certifications. He bought color printers, generators, & provided internet connectivity to hundreds of schools.
When he talks about investing in education, he means every sense of the word. All these happened as far back as 2013. 🤩🤩
Soludo is not a direct successor of Peter Obi. He ignored everyone before Peter Obi and everyone after Peter Obi to focus on Peter Obi.
What do you call that?

CURRENT EROSION STATE OF ANAMBRA STATE .
Anambra State today, has over 1,000 active gully erosion sites, making it the most erosion-ravaged state in Nigeria and frequently described by local officials as the "erosion capital of Africa".
The scale of the destruction is severe, with active gullies now affecting 146 out of the 179 communities in the state. This environmental crisis has eaten up more than 30% of Anambra’s total landmass.
To completely control and remediate all 1,000 plus active erosion sites in Anambra state, it is estimated that hundreds of billions of Naira (over $1 billion USD) would be required.

President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and Ngozi Okonjo Iweala in appreciation of the Prudent, great and transparent governance style of Peter Obi helped Anambra to access $37m of this funds at zero percent interest rate
Today, rather than PROFESSOR OJIONU AND HIS IMBECILIC AND DIMWITTED TEAM OF PROPAGANDIST IN AWKA going cap in hand to beg their " progressive " friends in Abuja to help them as Jonathan helped Ndi Anambra under Peter Obi to tackle the gully sites in his state , he is busy chasing up infantile and petty propaganda [ tagged PETER OBI AND RECORD OF PUBLIC DEBT IN ANAMBRA]
"There is definitely an issue of character with Prof. Soludo and his desperate search for power and relevance in Nigeria. Nigerians should, therefore, beware of so-called intellectuals without character and wisdom because this combination is fatal."..Dr Ngozi Okonjo Iweala
@Chigozieialex This is where they will find you. Go and give account of the monies you collected in the name of campaign (UP NORTH FOR OBI). Immediately you are called for accountability, you remembered your next cash cow...
All APC and their supporters are doing is character assassination. They found their perfect actor in Soludo. Now they are advocating for EFCC to investigate him. To create the headline, he has been arrested by EFCC over misappropriation of funds. But God will disappoint them
LET OTHER GOVERNORS, FROM 1999 TILL DATE, HAVE THE COURAGE TO PUBLISH THEIR HANDOVER NOTES TO THEIR SUCCESSORS, AS PETER OBI HAS DONE. BE ACCOUNTABLE TO THE PEOPLE.
@YunusaTanko All APC and their supporters are doing is character assassination. They found their perfect actor in Soludo. Now they are advocating for EFCC to investigate him. To create the headline, he has been arrested by EFCC over misappropriation of funds. But God will disappoint them
Government is continuum, so I believe you have access to the memo he used to request for these loans, you have access to the bank scripts, instead of an excel sheet that you formulated, why not make the evidence concrete? You guys are becoming clowns.
8 External Loans: As of when Obi left office on 17th March 2014, there were 8 different external borrowings for malaria, erosion control, education, healthcare etc (see attached poster) which the present administration services with hundreds of millions of naira monthly.
