Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra state has thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for the completion of Zik’s mausoleum in his country home, Onitsha.

Obiano spoke on Tuesday, January 8, when he inspected the mausoleum, noting that the completion was immeasurable honour to Anambra people and the entire southeast people, NAN reports.

Legit.ng gathers that the mausoleum is situated at the popular Borome in Onitsha, the commercial nerve of Anambra, and home of the first president of Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Obiano said that previous administrations paid lip services to the project, resulting to its abandonment for more than 20.

The governor also appealed to the federal government to step up action in the procurement of necessary facilities for the library section.

He said it would be nice to have everything in place before the visit of president to Anambra in a few weeks time for the inauguration of the mausoleum.

He said: “President Buhari is determined to keep to his promises on the Zik’s mausoleum. The project is an honour to Zik of Africa, who played major roles in shaping the nation.

“This project started 23 years ago and we must thank President Buhari for keeping to his words.’’

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
