  • “All over Africa, you will find a mine owned by foreigners, Europeans, Americans, Canadians, Chinese & Australians. They mine our resources in the morning and give us loans in the night. It’s like someone steals your cow, slaughters it and donates intestines to you. And then you welcome them as donors & investors for giving you intestines from your own cow" ~ Ibrahim Traore

  • Abia’s Alex Otti vs Delta’s Sheriff Oborevwori
    Same time in office. Different results.
    One is building a future.
    The other is wasting one.

    Delta receives more money than the entire Southeast combined yet has nothing to show for it. Let’s talk FACTS πŸ‘‡πŸΎ
    REVENUE: WHO REALLY HAS THE MONEY?
    Delta State
    Over ₦1.9 TRILLION received in 24 months
    (₦700bn FAAC + ₦400bn 13% Derivation + ₦300bn IGR + ₦500bn borrowings/debts)

    Abia State
    Less than ₦300bn combined revenue in same period

    YET: Delta is gasping.
    Abia is growing.

    INFRASTRUCTURE: WHERE’S THE WORK?
    Abia (Otti):
    – Rebuilt Abia Secretariat for ₦900m (₦1.1bn saved)
    – Massive road projects across Umuahia, Aba, Ohafia
    – Overhauled streetlights, traffic control, & environment
    Delta (Sheriff):
    – Key roads like Effurun-Warri, Sapele axis, Jesse, Bomadi still death traps
    – No flagship project launched
    – Secretariat, schools, and hospitals in ruins

    HEALTHCARE: A STATE OF LIFE OR DEATH
    Abia:
    – Allocated 15% of budget to health (first in SE Nigeria)
    – Revived ABSUTH (Abia State University Teaching Hospital)
    – Renovated PHCs & digitized medical records
    Delta:
    – Central Hospital Warri is a glorified mortuary
    – Medical staff strike constantly
    – No major hospital completed in 24 months

    Yet Delta spends billions on “consultancy.”

    EDUCATION: INVESTING IN BRAINS OR BUILDINGS?
    Otti:
    – ₦29.5bn to fence public schools (for safety)
    – Restored accreditation to ABSUTH
    – Launched bursaries & ICT training for youths
    Sheriff:
    – DELSU underfunded
    – Schools lack desks, staff, basic infrastructure
    – Education budget still bloated with ghost expenditures

    IGR & FISCAL DISCIPLINE: WHO’S MANAGING BETTER?
    Otti:
    – Raised Abia IGR to ₦15bn in 6 months
    – Working toward ₦5bn monthly target
    – Cost of governance cut by ending fraudulent contracts
    – Prioritized salaries, pensions, and contractors
    Sheriff:
    – No known IGR strategy
    – Huge FAAC dependency
    – No clear debt servicing plan
    – Budget padded with vague “empowerment” votes

    TRANSPARENCY & ACCOUNTABILITY
    Otti:
    – Publishing contracts (partially)
    – Subjected Abia’s past finances to forensic audit
    – Sacked ghost workers
    – Implementing due process in procurement
    Sheriff:
    – EFCC still probing Okowa’s ₦1.3trn derivation fund
    – Sheriff silent on financial abuse
    – No audit report published since he took office
    – Key ministries operating in secrecy

    COURTS & RULE OF LAW
    Abia:
    – ICT-driven judiciary
    – 17 LGAs with modern courtrooms
    – Judges motivated, cases now digitized

    Delta:
    – Lawyers protest delay in justice
    – Courtrooms in shambles
    – Judges neglected, salaries delayed

    COST OF GOVERNANCE
    Yes, Otti spent ₦5bn in 3 months. But he’s showing work.
    Delta spends the same and we ask, for what?

    Govt House in Asaba is bloated with aides, contracts, PR tools and “influencers” eating millions monthly. Zero productivity.

    VISION
    Abia is building an economy around technology, health, agriculture, and infrastructure.

    Delta is still doing “empowerment” and handouts like it’s 2003.

    Abia’s Otti is planning for 2050.
    Delta’s Sheriff is repeating 1999.

    SO DELTANS, ASK YOURSELF THIS:

    What if a man like Alex Otti governed Delta State with the kind of resources we’ve wasted under PDAPC?

    – Delta would be West Africa’s industrial hub.
    – Our schools and hospitals would be world-class.
    – Warri, Ughelli, Asaba, and Sapele would be model cities.

    Instead?
    We’re stuck in reverse.

    CONCLUSION

    Abia is proof that bold leadership can work.

    If a state with less than ₦300bn in 2 years can show us working hospitals, digital courts, smart schools, and real savings.

    Then Delta has NO excuse.
    We don’t lack money.
    We lack vision.
    2027 must not be about party.
    It must be about performance. Integrity. Audacity. Boldness. Character.

    Delta must rise from the ruins of deceit.
    We need a reformer, not a seat-warmer.
    We need an Alex Otti not more of the same.

  • Using touts or security men in debt recovery is strictly prohibited in Nigeria. Debt collectors are required to operate within the confines of the law, and any form of harassment, intimidation, or unlawful seizure of property is considered a breach of debtors' rights.

    *Prohibited Practices:*

    - *Harassment or Threats*: Debt collectors cannot threaten or intimidate debtors, including physical harm, threatening phone calls, or aggressive visits.
    - *Public Shaming*: Debt collectors are not allowed to publicly shame debtors by publishing their names or tarnishing their reputation.
    - *Unlawful Seizure of Property*: Debt collectors cannot forcibly seize a debtor's assets without following legal procedures

    *Permissible Methods:*

    - *Issuing Demand Letters*: Debt collectors can send demand letters to debtors, specifying the debt amount, interest, and penalties.
    - *Negotiation and Settlement*: Debt collectors can engage in negotiation and mediation to arrive at a settlement plan.
    - *Involvement of Legal Practitioners*: Creditors can involve lawyers to initiate court proceedings to enforce debt collection.

    *Consequences of Unlawful Practices:*

    - *Fines*: Debt collectors can face fines for violating debt collection laws.
    - *Civil Litigation*: Debtors can sue debt collectors for damages.
    - *Criminal Prosecution*: In extreme cases, debt collectors may face criminal charges and imprisonment.

    Debt collectors must adhere to legal obligations, prioritize compliance, and respect debtors' rights to avoid severe penalties.
    [07/06, 10:45] +234 806 940 3103: Using the police in civil matters is generally not permissible in Nigeria. According to Section 32(2) of the Police Act, "The Act prohibits the Police from arresting anyone based on a civil wrong or breach of contract." This means the police are not supposed to get involved in disputes that don't involve criminal activity. Police powers are limited to detecting and preventing crimes, apprehending suspects, preserving law and order, protecting lives and properties, and enforcing laws.
    Civil disputes, including contract breaches or debt collection, don't fall under their jurisdiction.

    *Key Points to Note:*

    - *Police Role*: The police are not debt collectors or enforcers of civil contracts. Their primary duty is to handle criminal matters, not civil disputes.
    - *Human Rights Protection*: Nigerian law protects individuals from arbitrary arrest and detention, aligning with the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights and the African Charter on Human Rights.
    - *Consequences of Misuse*: Wrongful arrest and detention can lead to damages and lawsuits for malicious prosecution.
    - *Legal Framework*: The Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) and the Police Act outline the guidelines for police actions, emphasizing the need for warrants, bail, and humane treatment of suspects

    The Inspector General of Police (IGP) has also emphasized that the police have no business with civil matters, reinforcing this principle

  • "After I became president, I asked my escort to go to a restaurant for lunch. We sat down and each of us asked what we wanted.

    On the front table, a man was waiting to be served. When he was served, I said to one of my soldiers: go and ask that gentleman to join us. The soldier went and conveyed my invitation to him. The man got up, took his plate, and sat down right next to me.

    While he ate his hands trembled constantly and he did not lift his head from his food. When we finished, he said goodbye without looking at me, I shook his hand and he left.

    The soldier told me:

    Madiba that man must have been very ill, seeing as his hands didn't stop shaking while he ate.-

    Absolutely no! The reason for his trembling is another.

    Then I told him:

    That man was the warden of the prison where I stayed. After he tortured me, I screamed and cried asking for some water and he humiliated me, laughed at me, and instead of giving me water, he urinated in my head.

    He is not sick, he was afraid that, I now being the president of South Africa, would send him to prison and do to him what he did to me. But I'm not like that, this conduct is not part of my character, nor of my ethics.

    ′′Minds that seek revenge destroy states, while those that seek reconciliation build nations.

    As I stepped out the door to start a new chapter in my life, I realized that in order to truly embrace my freedom, I needed to let go of all the anger, hatred, and resentment that had weighed me down. I knew that holding onto those negative emotions would only keep me imprisoned”
