A man's gift maketh way for him, is a saying for Givers, then a Hard transparent good work singles a man out is what we can use to qualify Sir PETER GREGORY OBI, a PAPAL KNIGHT, a High Chief that was crowned by all the Traditional rulers in ANAMBARA State at the tail end of his Government as OKWUTE NDI IGBO , after he showed that he came to rescue, restore and redeem the state with good Governance.
We recalled that when he came into Politics from his Business world, he is unknown, unsung and UNCELEBRATED, he took the State and Politics by the wind pipe with his soft and romantic voice, but before it get to that, he posed a question that kicked NDIGBO awake, he asked and I quote "ARE WE CURSED OR WE ARE THE CURSE ".
That question was a thunderstorm ,it created moral quake and as nobody has the answer to that, everybody waited for the answer from the poser..
Prior to his stepping into the political murky waters of the state, the state has gone insolvent, crime became an anthem and way of life.
Poverty in Government places ravaged the state and psych of the people, the best the people expected from Government is to pay Salaries and call Penshioniers DEAD WOOD.
The Finance of the state were shared from source between the Urchins who controls the state through Diabolical method and Mafian brigandate, the state was under great siege ,the Hope were Hopeless and future blunt and brutal.
Many of the Mega Rich coin a new strategy, they started giving away our daughters hand in Marriage in Lagos and other places for fear of Kidnappers and Robbers, it was so bad that Kidnappers Kidnapped a sitting and serving GOVERNOR.
That was when fear of unknown took over the mind of the populace.
Moving down Upper Iweka with any black bag was an albatross, in broad daylight criminals will approach your vehicle if it is New or expensive on a hold up and demand you go to OKUZU to pay ransom or they will get you and make life Hell for you. People complied with quake and trepidation that makes your Balls to shrink.
Criminals hiding under the unprotected banner of Massob took over Fegge ONUICHA and start collecting Protection money, levies from both Landlord, Shop owners and Tenants, those that refused to pay ends up at AKPAKA the dare devil forest and 33 , they come out by grace, so nobody wants to make that journey, they paid and pay and were living in great Bondage..
Those with wherewithal relocated out of the state and ANAMBARA then was truly HOME FOR ALL CRIMINALS.
ONUICHA became the SODDOM and Gomorrah of Crime, so when OKWUTE took over the mantle of leadership, he met a heculian task, but shockingly he did not go about complaining that he met a mess, an insolvent situation, a state in putrid, he simply roll his shirt, get to work silently and by 4 Years the state became a Toast of all States.
Having in mind that we were in bad debt, owing pensioners, Unpiad Salaries.
He paid them all and restored smiles on the faces of the people.
This also did not affect his legendary building for the first time STATE SECRETARIAT, Government House were a Governor should be as his office, before him , Governors office is any Hotel of Choice, then he build Governors Lodge as well to cut down and away the Hotel bills that guzzle overhead.
Not only he cleanse Upper Iweka, he did not Dualise the Road, he started from Head Bridge and eight-lualise it, each side both going and coming commanding 8 Lanes with Pedestrain bridges at interval.
He fenced ARMY BARRACK which produced a safe aboard for the Criminals who operate around ONUICHA ,fencing it halved the crime rate in ONUICHA .
He invaded AKPAKA FOREST and 33 and set the captives free, then turn the place to a Habitable enclave.
May be I should also brush the creation of TOWN VIGILANTE groups that watch the Towns ,monitoring invaders and running them put of town.
He created a modified environment for the Vigilante when he gave every town a Brand New Year Rubber of INNOSON HILUX TRUCK to serve as Operational Vehicle .
As people were about shouting OKWUTE, he digress and started from Omanbala,Ayamelum building Roads on places that are impossible to place Road, he builds more Virgin roads than any State in Africa, he created equity toward all corners of the state and for the first time, we from other part of the state move around and join our brothers in Ayamelum axis, in fact ANAMBARA North before Peter was just analogy of TOWNS FAR FAR AWAY out of reach, nobody ever visit them because there is no Form of Transportation that is good enough to take you in and bring you out.
He broke the barrier and as If that is not enough, he single handedly gave them a Governor , a feat that is an Illusion .
Yes, he made it known that we are not cursed but a cure and he is the Solution .
Did I remember to tell us that he pulled our schools out from bottomless spit and Serpent filled Pit, where we are comfortable snoozing without hope of wriggling out.
He pulled us out and place us at top of the food chain,we became the Education Numero UNO just because he returned Schools to Missionaries and they brought back fear, Love and God back to the life and growth of our wards .
Now that brings me to the cry of who should be the national redeemer that will rescue the Nation, we have to look at pedigree.
Some Will tell you that it's Awusa Turn of 8 years, after that it will be IGBO turn and I ask what do they smoke?
After 8 Years the Nation will no Longer be in Coma but in Cemetery, but now that we have hope of reviving it from Coma, we need the man who has done it before not those who wants to do trial and error, also note that after 8 years they will simply move to another party after they crippled the party that would've given credence to the agreed zoning.
So by migrating to another party with the resources they moved from the National coffers, they can erect even a SUYA maker as President and nothing will stop it or give meaning to the chasing of tail that will ensure as IGBO Presidency.
The Hope we have now is that the Country is in Comma and we have a man who specializes on treating economy that is in Comma.
What the Youths of Nigeria need today is to promote, project and drag PETER OBI into this race and win this election for him, so that we can actually see a future that we all will be proud of within 4 years.
I love how the presidency endorsed him by the following

As I move to end this piece, I heard the IKOLO of ACHEBE THE ARROW OF GOD and he ask me "The Pen, did you hear what Mr President said about NIGERIAN Soldiers killing NDIGBO with Love during the pogrom of 1967 ?".
Well, I said I am not going to believe that, in fact I disagree that the President will commit such Oral atrocity, because I know that there is no way he will say that they treated us fairly of kindly because..
1) When Muritala Muhammad matched his Brigade of Savages into ASABA and they brought out all the males, line them up and slaughter all of them just for Fun.
There is no way he can call that LOVE KILLING, so I know he can't say that.
2) President Buhari can never say they showed restraint when Major Adekunle the Black Scorpion who led brutes more Ferocious than the herdsmen into Port HARCOURT and he made a declaration and I quote " We. Shoot at things that are moving, when we get into IGBOLAND, we shoot at things that doesn't Move, and he carried it out, so nobody can say that it was a Mercy Killing "
3)When they laced the food relief supplied by Caritas to cushion the effect of the AWOLOWO designed Famine, they laced it with Poison and agents that started the dreadful KWASHIOKOR, I am sure a Retired General cannot call that restrained killing.
4) If slaughtering of 6.5Million Umuigbo can be called Killing with Love, then I can place my heart across my heart and weep for BENUE people and I will tell them that they are getting the National Romance Killing and the entire Nation should stand up and condemn such act.
5) There is no Romance when our Planes manned by British Pilots were raining BOMBS on our markets, in our Churches during service on Sunday, in our markets on market days, dropping energetic Bombs on our schools.
6) When the Soldiers raped our Mothers and Sisters, by that act we have Mixed blood amongst us today and you can see them always defending their linage, they throw support to other Tribes with all their strength, just because the blood in them is tainted and polluted. So no way can that be called moderate raping.
I can say it, that the President I know will not make such provocative statement.
Mazi Odera POg heading to River BENUE to put my sacrifice to appease the land with 11 OKUKO ABUKE.
Invited of not,, I will do the divination to circumspect and possibly circumvent the blood letting, so that Heaven will stop shedding Tears about NIGERIA.
