I speak as nwa-afor Igbo!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Ohanaeze NdigboYouth Council aptly captured the picture when the group in<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">its statement inAbakiliki stated that the insinuation that the Southeast<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">is divided on Obi\u2019schoice as Atiku\u2019s running mate is untrue and a<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">deliberate mischief by enemiesof the zone to create rancour where there is<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">none.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Despite thefeigned furore which was at best an understandable political<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">gimmick, Atikudeserves praise for making this tough choice among<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">contending sectionalinterests. Those who know would agree that this was a<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">deft move to address tosome extent, issues of equity and fairness.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Like him or hate him, Peter Obiis an enigma. Apartfrom the way he managed<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Anambra State economically for eight years; Obi hasfrugality, global world<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">view, vast experience in economic management,acceptability across board<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">and limited political baggage. Above all, he isstill a young man<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">relatively speaking.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">No doubt, Atiku andObi will make a great team that will be able to steer<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">our nation back on thepath of progress, economic prosperity and unity.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">They are both successfulbusiness men, they both understand the benefits of<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">industrialization and mostimportantly, they are both employers of labour.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">What more can Nigerians ask forif not employment? Obi and Atiku joint<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">ticket will be a veritable asset in ourquest to get Nigeria working again.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">As explained byAtiku himself, Peter Obi\u2019s choice as a running mate \u201cwas<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">largely influenced byhis youthfulness, vast knowledge of global and local<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">economics as well as beinga financial expert, all experience which Nigeria<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">is in great need of at thispoint in time.\u201d<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Like Atiku, Obiis a successful businessman and wealth creator. His wealth<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">of experience in thefinancial sector, governance and human capital<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">development would be of immensebenefit to the government. Also, Obi\u2019s rich<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">experience in the private andpublic sectors will help him manage the<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">nation\u2019s economy as the Chairman of theNational Economic Council (NEC).<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">The bankingsector, which is the mainstay of the nation\u2019s economy, will<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">have a new lease oflife with Obi in charge of NEC.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">As said by Atiku, \u201cIn every othersector, such as education, health,<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">security and infrastructure, Obi as governorleft tangible and verifiable<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">worthy legacies in Anambra state. Developmentpartners such as the World<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Bank, the European Union, the United NationsDevelopment Programme and<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">UNICEF, adjudged the state as one of the best indevelopment partnership<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">and commitment to reforms for good governance underhim.\u201d<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">It is on recordthat at a time many other governors were leaving huge<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">debts, Obi left theequivalent of US $500 million in investment as well as<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">local and foreigncurrency, including $156 million in dollar-denominated<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">bonds. So he understandsthe dynamics of the economy. He has an impressive<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">track record of tangibleachievements both in governance and in his private<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">sector life.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Few Nigerianscan dispute the fact that Obi has proven himself to be a man<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">of vision,mission, focus, compassion, piety and integrity, attributes<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">needed to turnaround the pathetic state of the nation\u2019s economy.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Does anybodydisputes that Peter Obi has a reputation for frugality and<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">good economicmanagement, as shown in his deployment of the scarce<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">resources of Anambra Stateduring his eight years as governor to achieve<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">milestones that were acknowledgedeven by international development<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">agencies? His track record shows that he is athinker who can deploy ideas<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">to change the value frame of his people so theycan achieve longer<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">sustainable values.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">As a businessmanwho has nurtured business from a small level, and ran<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">government as it shouldbe run by putting the necessary structures in<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">place, and entrenching decencyand transparency in governance, Obi no doubt<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">will be an added advantage to ourgovernment. What else are we looking for<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">as good qualities for someone that isto head the National Economic<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Council?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">This ticket willbe able to steer our nation back on the path of progress,<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">economic prosperityand unity. Peter isa great choice. He brings his<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">business intelligence into governance. He is notcorrupt and as a governor,<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">he was not wasteful.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Southeast regionhad long deserved a better and higher role in the<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">administration of thiscountry. Obi himself has proven to be competent<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">judging from his performance asgovernor.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">His choice asrunning mate normally would be the right thing to do. There<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">could not have beena fairer running mate than Obi, from the Southeast. Obi<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">is simply good as Obi;end of discussion!
