Open
letter to Gov. Peter Obi
By
Obumselu Uzodimma Benjamin
Your excellency, I am very happy for the good work you are doing
in Anambra State. I
appreciate your efforts
to invest in what we know that works. May the good
Lord guide, protect and give you knowledge and wisdom with which to impact
positively on the lives of our people which will ultimately put smile on their
faces for delivering on your campaign promise.
I am writing this mail to you on behalf of Ogwuaniocha people in
Ogbaru Local Government Area of Anambra State, who have suffered decades of
neglect in many ways by previous and current administration. Ogwu-Aniocha , my
town has remained one
of the food baskets of Anambra
State. For instance,
these communities ;
Umu-Nekpu, Umu-Ngasi, Umu-Ezeoma, Umu-Eleke and Oblo, do convey on daily basis
an average of 100 tonnes of food items through Ihiala and other parts of the
state, instead of Atani, the headquarters of Ogbaru because of the impassable
nature of Atani road among other roads that need your urgent attention and
action.
I urge you to come over to Ogwuaniocha to see for yourself the
near squalor those who voted for you in the last governorship election, with
the hope that you will extend the dividend of democracy to them are facing and
help us with some of these things my people need. What we need now and quickly
too are; good road from Atani to Ogwu-Aniocha , functional cottage hospital
with state of the art facilities and seasoned medical doctors to man it,
electricity, pipe-born water supply to the five communities, making up the
town. These are what any responsible government that has the security and
welfare of its people at heart should do.
I must commend you notwithstanding contrary
views for your efforts in the area of health, education, infrastructural
development etc which is mainly concentrated in the urban area and your
initiative among other people who contributed in making Anambra an oil bearing
State not minding the current dispute about the rightful owners of the oil
well. As we continue
to count on you as a good leader to provide the above amenities for us, we pray
God will help you to remember rural dwellers who have been expecting you to
provide basic social facilities for them.
