CKN, If Chris Anyanwu is the same former Senator that represented Okigwe zone and came from Obowu LGA in Imo state, what achievements did he made in Okigwe or Obowu that qualified him to receive the honor you gave him ? The only thing we saw was his huge country mansion in his village.
ReplyDeleteThe person that represented Okigwe Senatorial zone (inclusive of Obowu) was Sylvester Anyanwu not Chris Anyanwu..CKN
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right Bro., Excuse me for the mix-up. I am just checking to make sure that you guys are not rewarding rogue politicians. We are also keeping track of what they are doing.
