If I were a Governor of a state like Anambra, with a solid manufacturing base in Nnewi and a strong commercial centre in Onitsha, I would not use $30 million of state funds to build a brewery. Instead, I will use that money to improve the productivity of Anambra and increase Internally Generated Revenue, by building an Independent Power Project to provide uninterrupted power supply to Nnewi and Onitsha, rather than use it to promote drunkenness by establishing a beer brewery that eventually was loss-making.

Please text-check me: Tinubu and Fashola initiated, started, completed and commissioned multiple Independent Power Projects in Lagos state, including the Alausa Independent Power Plant (10.4 Mw), the Akute Independent Power Plant (12.55Mw), the Lagos Island 1&2 Independent Power Plant (10Mw), the Mainland Independent Power Plant (8.8Mw), the Lekki Peninsula Integrated Power Project (6Mw), and the Island IPP located in Marina (10MW).

These projects individually cost less than the $30 million wasted by Peter Obi on the beer brewery.

Even the incumbent Governor, Jide Sanwoolu, commissioned an IPP, the Ikoyi Independent Power Project.

You can imagine how much better the Innoson plant would have been in Nnewi with an IPP.

My challenge to Peter Obi and his Obidients is this: Name one Independent Power Project initiated, started, completed, and commissioned by Peter Obi in his eight-year tenure as Anambra Governor, which saw him receive over $1 billion federal allocation from the Federal Government.

Because I know the capacity of Peter Obi and his Obidients for propaganda and gaslighting, an Independent Power Project is not a substation or transformer donated by the State Government to PHCN. An Independent Power Plant is a power station owned by the State Government and is not part of the National Integrated Power Project of the Federal Government.
