THE GOVERNOR ANAMBRA NEEDS

In Nigeria as a whole and in Anambra State in particular, there is an increasing awareness and demand for quality leadership and good governance spanning all three tiers of government. This has become necessary due to the need for sustainable development cutting across various communities and villages of every State. Anambra, a State with a big land mass of 4,416sq km, interlocked within States and bordered by Kogi State to the north, Enugu State to the east, Imo, Abia and Rivers states to the south, and Delta and Edo state to the west, with abundant natural and human resources, no doubt needs a visionary and imaginative leader to translate all these into wealth generation and redistribution assets.

He has this cute nerdiness about him with those medicated glasses he wears. We closely sat together in that bus. He's from a francophone country.  And we also talked for a long  in that bus. He's been learning English for about 8-9 years. While talking, each time I used a word he was unfamiliar with, he would ask me the meaning and for synonyms to the word and other instances where the word can be used. As I type this, he is sleeping beside me, of course after he asked for my number and I gave him. Yay! I have a French speaking, cu
