VICTOR UMEH ON ARISE TV: THE LIES AND FIBS OF A STOOGE

November 3, 2021

ON ROADS

During the arise interview of yesterday, Chief Victor Umeh openly called Mr. Peter Obi a liar. Because of that singular indiscretion and exhibition of his inherent “Agbero’ nature, some people thought Mr. Peter Obi would rain thunder on him. However, in his usual calm and maturity, Obi said he was not willing to join issues with Chief Victor Umeh. Besides not measuring height among unequal, Obi understood the likelihood of mistaking the mad man and his purser as both mad, especially when both are Papal Knights.

While speaking, Chief Victor Umeh, the bearer of “truth,” said that Gov. Willie Obiano had COMPLETED 55 ROADS HE INHERITED FROM MR. PETER OBI.

No need arguing with Chief Umeh. To make the matter easier for him, I have taken time to list the roads Obiano inherited and now challenge Chief Victor Umeh to tell us the 55 he has completed. Readers can also react by way of telling us if the roads in their towns as listed have been completed.

We shall take the issues he raised one after another to establish who is really the liar here. We want to establish who among the two collects 20 Million monthly from the state government to defend her even when she is carrying out the most anti-people programme and policies.

Most of the abandoned roads were over 70% completed. The Ibekwe road that  leads to Grand Rilvena Hotel, for example had been blinded before Obiano took over.

A few that were completed, like about 3 in Aguluzigbo were those contracted to the man under question.

NOTE: Obi inherited close to 20 roads from Dr. Chris Ngige and completed all of them. Besides the roads Obiano inherited from Obi, is Chief Victor Umeh aware that he flagged off over 160 roads on his own and is yet to complete 3% of the roads?

I am sure his monthly allowance will be increased for being under attack for the Caudillo.
