📍Onitsha, Nigeria

Just saw the news that the EU ambassador was in Onitsha visiting Peter Obi. This is big for our town. You know how it is here - when a big international figure comes to see Obi at his country home in Agulu, everyone starts talking. But this time it’s different. The EU ambassador came right into Onitsha proper, not just passing through.

I was at the Main Market this morning and heard the chatter from traders along Old Market Road. Some say it’s about business investments, others think it’s political. But knowing Peter Obi, the man doesn’t waste time. If the EU ambassador came to his house on Ugwunobam Road, you can bet they discussed real things - education, infrastructure, maybe even the state of the roads in Onitsha that we all suffer on daily.

My neighbor who sells at Ochanja Market said he saw a convoy heading toward the stadium area yesterday. That must have been the setup for this visit. It’s not every day you see EU bigwigs in Anambra, let alone Onitsha. Most of them fly straight to Abuja and stay there. The fact that they came to Obi’s hometown says a lot about the respect he commands internationally.

Let’s be real - Onitsha people know how to welcome visitors. Whether it’s the banky market crowd or the boys at Fegge, we always show up. No dull moments here. But I hope this visit leads to something concrete. We need those potholes on Upper Nkpor Road fixed. We need the drainage on Broad Street sorted. If the EU is looking at partnering with Obi on development, then let them start from our streets.

For anyone new to Onitsha, this is the kind of news that proves we’re not just a busy commercial hub. We have connections that matter. If you see any strange number plates around Okpoko or GRA, don’t panic - it’s just the big boys doing business.
