we have to grab the truth to its fulness and learn to call a spade a spade without deviating from the truth Anambra might have produced great men and women, wise thinkers philosopher, mathematician, scientist, business men, significant politician , economics, artists etc but still have long way to go in terms of structural reforms, infrastructural development and environmental sanitization and educational reforms should not be isolated,but the nook and cranny of onitcha around its corner is occupied with dilapidated buildings and fly over and devastated environment .is not as if el rufai was crapping nonsense but from the real vantage point of view at close proximity to the state you find out he is making sense but blame not the citizens cos they are industrious but the governmental bodies,greedy politicians cos they are the illness that we all re suffering negligence of duty and incompetence but the normal citizen proved that the can survive without these scrupulous leaders so i 'm not here to defend these scams we called our governors nd ministers but for them to accuse themselves and realize that they are all bunch of failures and fools.

In a country where five sad news as above are being recorded in a day and the people still sit on the fence without doing anything means those in power had seen us to be fools. The revolution in Tunisia which eventually spread to other parts of the region started when a graduate set himself on fire simply because the wares he was selling by the roadside were seized by the authority.
