Meet Governor Hope Uzodinma - the only shameless governor who invites the president to commission every kilometre of road completed.

In the end, he will spend more money to host and entertain the president and his guests than the entire amount spent on the project. Such a waste! undecided

A failure of a president. Many people are kidnapped and killed here and there but he chooses to look away going for a meaningless function. Thunder fire any idiot that would quote me and say rubbish

It’s ok

But did all these people have to be there . I don’t think so

It’s wrong to be partying at a time a Nigerian has been kidnapped with his entire family with at least one of them confirmed dead and others still in captivity

yen yen yen.

Should we remind you that uzodinma won re election by a landslide.
Obi couldn't get 40% popular vote in his re election bid in anambra despite pitching anambran Catholic against anambran Anglican.

I thought the main aim of the invitation is for his swearing-in. Meanwhile, there are other governors present
