Anambra and the JUSUN Strike

By Ifeanyi Afuba
It was the late novelist, academic and activist, Festus Iyayi who once said that ‘Nigeria is stranger than fiction.’ As incongruous as it sounds, this season of presidential confirmation that Nigeria is broke, is turning out to be the period of fierce labour agitation for higher wages in the states. And when the federal government, the single entity that carts away 52% of the national revenue is constrained to admit that ends can no longer meet, the plight of Nigeria’s 36 states which share the remainder of the commonwealth with 774 local governments after deduction to special funds, can be compared to walking a tight rope. If only matters ended on this single disadvantage!

BANKS, ACCOUNT NUMBERS AND MONEY OBI LEFT FOR OBIANO





You are all witnesses of the Press Conference by Anambra State Government denying the amount of money bequeathed it by Mr. Peter Obi.
Gov. Willie Obiano plans to borrow money massively and has chosen to lie by telling Anambra people that the amount contained in Obi’s handover note was not the true representation of reality. I understand that some of the institutions he plans to borrow from questioned his financial prudence and ability to manage money, hence he wanted to tell them that he met no money not to talk about managing it.

 Find below, the detail of money handed over to him, where they were as at March 17th, 2017, for I do not know where they are now.
You cannot eat your cake and have it, you cannot live beyond your income and expect not to go bankrupt as Anambra is today.
