Real reason Anambra became number one in NECO exams under Peter Obi – Reno Omokri

A former presidential spokesman, Reno Omokri on Wednesday alleged that the real reason Anambra State became number one in NECO exams under the administration of Peter Obi was the high rate of exam malpractices.

In his tweet on X, Omokri argued that Anambra did not become number one in NECO exams because Peter Obi invested in education.

“And that is why Anambra gradually lost its top position in NECO after Obi’s tenure. Because succeeding governors refused to continue along those lines. For example, last year, Adamawa even outperformed Anambra,” he said.

Omokri added that “The secret was not any investment Obi was making in the education sector, because the truth is that Peter Obi was more focused on building beer breweries for Anambra than schools. The secret was the exam magic malpractice centres.”

Obi had in a press conference to explain the reason he did not build a single school in his eight years as governor because it was not in his manifesto.

“Building new schools when the old ones are moribund is just like building coastal lines when internal roads are impassable.”
