It is an obvious fact that the story of Barrister Chyma Anthony has persistently remained a reference point among leaders of Owerri zone senatorial district and the good people of Ikeduru where the man who is going represent the people of Imo East hails from.

This man have exhibited steering leadership qualities that has endeared him to many people who now see him as not just a role model or idol but a case study both in the legal profession and administration.

He is humble, honest, panache and unwavering doggedness in the pursuit of the populist agenda for the common good of Owerri zone and has shown that he is a team player who will work for the good of the team and not for his selfish and personal interest.



Chyma Anthony, no doubt has shown and exhibited that he is the ideal person that will represent the good people of Owerri zone at the Red chamber of the national Assembly given the obvious fact that he is a man endowed with wisdom and knowledge to reconnect his senatorial district to the national grid.

The Umuori, Iho Dimeze born legal practioner cum international mediator and chartered Arbitrator and philanthropist of note is tested and trusted with the way and manner he has changed the mentality of the youths of the who he helped in securing them jobs in so many firm within and outside Nigeria where they are doing wonderfully well for themselves. He did not just give them fish but thought them how to fish and be self reliance.

He has shown through his actions and inactions that creating wealth and industrializing Owerri zone will not be a problem for him with his reach and contact.

Imo East as a zone need a man like Chyma Anthony as the next federal lawmakers because he will use his wealth of experience and international exposure to create massive job opportunities for our unemployed youths which our present representatives and even successive ones could not do. 



The Action Alliance Senatorial candidate for Owerri zone will move the zone forward with sound economic policy that will improve the living standard of living of the people from the area.

The legal luminary cum chartered Arbitrator said that he will sponsor a bill guaranteeing the independence of local government council so that state executive can't disburse elected government without their entitlement nor determine their electoral cycles.

According to him, he will make strong and credible representation to attract beneficial and growth inducing Federal projects to Owerri zone.

"I'll maintain functional and accessible offices in all the nine local government of Owerri zone and disburse 50% of my total allowance across all the nine local government within my first 9 months of my tenure.

" I'll bring amendments to energy, security and infrastructural regulation to enshrine transparency and accountability in these sector".

Also, he bring amendments to the public finance like law to ensure that the money meant to execute projects and programme in Owerri zone are judiciously used for the purpose to which it was released for.

Chyma Anthony is accepted in the whole Owerri zone and this is evidence with the numerous endorsement that have greeted his declaration to represent the people in 2019 and has shown that he is trustworthy and sincere in his dealings with ndi Imo East. 

As a legal luminary of international standing, Chyma Anthony has helped in facilitating the appointment of so many Imo youths across the three geopolitical zone in the state and this goes to show that he will not be a senator for only Ikeduru Local government area but the whole of Owerri zone.

It's a truism that what the people of the Imo East need in 2019 is a man like Chyma Anthony, the leading senatorial candidate of Action Alliance party who has shown through his activities that he is the ideal person to take over from his brother and ally, Senator Samuel Anyanwu in 2019.

Ndi Owerri zone both home and in diaspora believes that it is time to separate Paul from Barnabas. Meaning that, it is time to tell the people the nakad truth and allow this man Chyma Anthony to takeover from Sen. Samuel Anyanwu who has given the people of the zone sound and effective representation at the Red chamber of the national Assembly and he will even help to reconnect his people to the national reckoning once again.

Mr. Chyma Anthony has today become the bride pride of ndi Imo East politics even though his foray into mockery waters of politics was not too long but he has completely been courted by the people of Owerri zone because of what he stand for and what he will bring to bear in the Red chamber of national Assembly in 2019.

It's a known fact that ndi Imo East has vowed to support Mr. Chyma Anthony to become the next senator of the federal Republic of Nigeria because they now know that he is not like other politician who has over the years deceived them with their sugar coated tongue. He is different from the every day politics because his word is his bond and has also proven beyond every reasonable doubt that what he says, he does.

That is why today ndi Owerri zone are clamoring for him to become their senator because he has a track record of service full of achievements and many of the younger ones sees him as a role model and pathfinder of great nobility.

Chyma Anthony has promised to reciprocate the love Owerri zone people has shown him and therefore pledge to serve the people by making himself available in 2019 to service of the zone and would do it with all his powers and might.

Without sounding indifference, Mr. Chyma Anthony is the type of senator the people of Imo East need in all ramifications to better the lives of the people who are gnashing of their teeth as a result of the pains, sufferings and untold hardship the people has faced as a result of having bench warmer as representatives in the national Assembly.

Chyma Anthony is an applicant who have applied to represent the people of Owerri zone and rescue it them from total collapse because he is a man with genuine heart and intention to return the zone back to reckoning where every Dick, Tom and Harry will be given equal opportunity to contribute to the development and growth of Owerri zone.

I therefore urged all Owerri zone eligible electorates to vote Chyma Anthony as a man that deserves the senatorial seat in 2019 and if the zone mistakenly give their mandate to a wrong person, it will certainly spell doom for the good people of Owerri zone.

Owerri based humanitarian, writer and activist, Mr. Paulcy Iwuala, will on Saturday, February 9, 2019, launch his literary work entitled, "The Life of Samdaddy in My Eyes".

A release by Iwuala, who is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Genius Eyes International Foundation and Living Tribute Ltd, puts the venue at Presidential Hotel, Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

Iwuala had last week made public the book which talks about the life of a serving Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Sen. Samuel Anyanwu (Samdaddy), who represents Imo East Senatorial District at the red chamber.



Announcing the literary output, the author said the book was in line with his Living Tribute project.

"In line with The Living Tribute Project which I initiated about two years ago to continually appraise and celebrate individuals, experts in various fields of human endeavour and leaders who are deserving of recognition, I had written about many people and celebrated them while they are still alive", he announced.

Iwuala in the statement revealed that he was inspired by the Senator's kindness and love for humanity.

The statement partly reads: "However, I felt that there was more to Sen. Samuel Anyanwu (Samdaddy), a charismatic and enchanting politician who is so loved and admired by many. Hence, I wrote and published this work. No one is perfect, not me , not you , not Sam Daddy. But I have chosen to write a few among the beautiful things I have seen in a man whom when you go close to, his love for humanity in just a short time can make you stand by him forever.

"Countless times he has been of help to the helpless. I wouldn't begin to say how immensely he supported and helped my NGO, even Internationally, how he built a house for a homeless family. Yet, he asked not to be mentioned on the project as he does not want his life of charity to be affiliated with his political life".

Mr Iwuala said his book criticised no one but expressed what love should be.

'The Life of Samdaddy in my Eyes is a book that criticised no one but taught me what love is and how he (SamDaddy) even in his world of mistakes is a man with a large heart, and immense deposit of love tucked in somewhere waiting always to be explored.

"The book does not project Samdaddy as perfect, actually no man is, but it looks into the many good things about one of Nigeria's finest lawmakers ever. Through this book, I gave honour to whom it is due", he noted.

The book launch is expected to attract media professionals, writers, business moguls, industrialists and top politicians.

A top commander of the Boko Haram Sect, Umar Abdulmalik, who was arrested penultimate Thursday by operatives of the Inspector General of Police Special Intelligence Response Team, IRT Led By DCP Abba Kyari, in Lagos State, for carrying out several bombings, bank robberies and killings within the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, Owo, Ondo State and Lokoja Kogi State, has revealed how he joined the sect and led members to carry out these attacks.

The 30-year-old suspect, who is a native of Okene in Kogi State and was alleged to have killed over 200 persons before his  arrest told Vanguard that a radical Islamic cleric, who he identified as Mallam Mustapha indoctrinated him into the deadly sect.
He explained that Mallam Mustapha came into Okene with his teachings, built a mosque in 2009 and urged residents to shun western education as it was a sin against Allah, and urged them to accept Islamic education which he said was the only education accepted by Allah.

He added that he attended several of Mallam Mustapha’s teachings, who he said also urged his followers to disregard the Nigeria State and wage war against her as her system of government was not in line with the dictates of Allah, which he said, ought to be in an Islamic fashion.

Abudulmalik, further explained that he joined some of Mallam Mustapha’s followers in destroying their school certificates and he accepted to wage war against the Nigeria State. We robbed banks to sustain the jihad “I joined one of the Boko Haram cells in Okene headed by one Zeeidi and we carried out several bombings within Kaduna, Kano and Abuja. Zeeidi was the person providing the bombs and my job then was to take them to our target locations.

After a while, the Department of State Security infiltrated our cell and they started arresting members of our group. Mallam Mustapha was arrested and his mosque was demolished.

Zeedi brought the idea of bank robbery so that those of us who have not been arrested could have resources to continue with the jihad. He brought some guns and he suggested we should attack the Kotonkarfe Prison in Kogi State, so we could free our members who were detained there. The attack on the prison was successful and we freed a lot of our members, after which we attacked some banks in Okene and took all the money we could find there. “We then moved to Owo where we robbed some of the banks with dynamites and carted away large sums of money. We used some of the money we made from those robberies to buy high explosives including materials we could use in producing non-metallic bombs that could beat metal detectors.

A lot of our members including Zeedi were arrested after those bank robberies and the attack on prison. I moved to Abuja with the bombs we produced and I formed a new cell in 2014. We carried out several bombings in the Fedeal Capital territory including those at Banex Plaza, Nyanya and Kuje areas of Abuja.

Unfortunately our gang was busted and five of our gang members were arrested while our bombs, including the non-metallic and the materials we were using in making them were recovered in Gaulaka area of Niger State by the Police IRT Team. I escaped, fled to Kano and I went underground for two years before I returned to Abuja and formed a new gang and we went into full blown armed robbery.”

Meanwhile, Police source disclosed that five months after the operatives of the IRT, led by Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, launched investigations into the gruesome killing of seven policemen and a civilian, in July 2018 at a police post on the Galadima Roundabout, Abuja, they made a breakthrough when they arrested a member of the gang identified as Lukman Abdulmalik alias Lampard, through a tip off in Ondo State and he confessed taking part in the killing of the seven policemen. He went on to identify Umar Abudlmalik, as the leader of his gang, who he said instructed them to always kill policemen whenever they had opportunity and take their rifles. 

The police source disclosed further that the suspect took the IRT operatives to their hideout in Abuja and four of his gang members identified as Abubakar Bello Sidi, Yusuf Abdulazeez alias, Fine Boy, Suleman Zakariya and Haruna Lamid, were arrested but, Umar Abdulmalik, escaped with a bullet wound. Four AK-47 rifles belonging to the deceased policemen, six magazines, 270 rounds of AK-47 ammunition and two police walkie talkie radios belonging to the deceased policemen were recovered from the suspects. It was gathered that Abdulmalik ran to Lagos with his bullet wound to the home of his younger sister who was a nurse and he started receiving treatments on his bullet wound. Unknown to him, IRT operatives in Lagos had information that he had a sister who was residing in Lagos, they trailed him to her house, found him sleeping there and apprehended him.

My robbery exploits —
Abdulmalik Narrating his robbery exploits Abdulmalik said; “After I formed my new robbery gang, we robbed a woman of N500,000, which was the money she got from contribution she had with some women. One of our gang members who got information about the money told me about it and we robbed the woman and took the money. We also robbed a man at Okene checking point, we pretended to be policemen and collected N1.3million from the man. We then moved to Abuja where we robbed super markets including their customers. We killed a policeman at Shoprite area in Lugbe and took away his rifle. We also robbed a shop along Second Gate on the Abuja-Kaduna Road. There was this dismissed policeman known as Apin-Iron, who was dismissed for taking part in armed robbery.


Iron has two Ak-47 and a pistol which he normally used to intercept and seize illicit drugs from people trying to smuggle them into Abuja. We normally visited his place to buy the drugs and we became friends. In one of our visits he told us that he knew several rich people we could rob and all we needed to do was to give him his share of the loot. He gave us information of a man from whom we took N5million and we gave our contact N2.5m as his share because that was what he demanded. He also gave us several other jobs before I had an accident and damaged one of my eyes when coming from Niger Prison Breaking Operation.

There was one Mustapha who was an internet fraudster, he was making money, but he started having issues with some cultists in his area so he brought in the police to arrest the boys. But the boys were later released and came back to harass him. So, he came to me and requested for my boys to protect him and I told him he would have to buy my boys two Ak-47 rifles. He agreed and bought us the guns. Then, my boys, Lampard and Abubakar, started moving around with him in military uniforms. People who saw them would think they were genuine soldiers. So, he wanted my boys to kill the cultists as well as the nurse who was treating him because the nurse entered his house and saw him performing rituals and he didn’t want the woman to tell people that he was using charms to make his money.

My boys told me about the job and I asked them not to kill anyone, then he became angry with me. I suspect he was the person who went to inform the police about my gang. “After I lost my eyes I was admitted in the hospital but my boys were still going for robberies and would bring money to me after each robbery.

I am the gang leader but I wasn’t with them when they killed the seven policemen at Galadima roundabout, I was in the hospital. After I was discharged, I had not gone for any robbery operation with them except Petrol Station robbery where we killed One person but IRT police team later arrested Lampard and Abubakar and they brought the policemen to my house. 

I had an Ak-47 rifle with me when the police came and I fired some shots which made it easy for me to escape but the police returned fire and I got injured. I managed to escape to Iyana Sango Ota, Ogun State, where my sister was residing. I later learned that the police went on to arrest Fine-Boy and Abubakar and Suleiman, a guy known as scorpion called and informed me. I don’t know how the police knew I was in my sister’s place, they found me sleeping and I was arrested,” he narrated.
