Ngige slaps our broda.He is finished.fr Ezekwonna is one of our prestigious priest fondly known as (morning ).
As the November 16, 2013
gubernatorial election draws nearer,
the APC candidate, Senator Chris
Ngige has embroiled himself in
unwanted controversy following
allegations that he slapped a Catholic
priest, Rev. Fr. Evaristus Ezekwona at
a burial ceremony in Nanka, Agulu,
Anambra State on Thursday.
Senator Ngige was said to have
become furious when he erroneously
concluded that Rev. Fr. Ezekwona was
deliberately standing in his way and
suddenly snapped, pouncing on the
hapless priest, strangling him first and
then unleashing a torrent of slaps on
both sides of the clergy man's face.
The incident took place at the at the
burial of the mother of the Catholic
Bishop of Awka Diocese, Bishop
Paulinus Ezeokafor in Nanka which
attracted prominent sons and
daughter the state including
politicians.
An eye witness, Obiora Onwuama, who
observed the scuffle, revealed that
after unleashing his fury on Rev. Fr.
Ezekwona, Ngige was not fully satisfied
and promptly instructed his personal
aides to torture him and they
promptly pounced and inflicted more
bodily injuries on him.
“We were all horrified at the sight.
Senator Ngige must have acted blindly
because the man was dressed in his
cassock. There were screams of shock
and horror from the onlookers but
Senator Ngige could not be stopped.
He must have mistaken Fr. Evaristus
for a member of the opposition party,”
Onwuama explained in total disbelief.
According to him, the earlier
assumption that Senator Ngige may
have acted in error soon gave way to a
deeper fear when upon his instruction,
his aides descended heavily on the
hapless priest, punching and kicking
him to the consternation of onlookers.
The APC gubernatorial candidate
seems
to be courting controversy with ease in
recent times starting with his ill-
conceived statement justifying the
deportation of 79 Igbos from Lagos to
the poorly timed kick-off of his
campaign rally in Onitsha on the same
day that the Ofala Festival was taking
place which provoked the anger of the
Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka
Achebe and his cabinet.
Ngige was also recently reported to
have engaged the Governor of
Anambra State, Mr. Peter Obi in a
futile tussle for prominence when he
hijacked the governor’s seat at a
recent Mass conducted by Arch-Bishop
Valerian Okeke at the Onitsha Prisons
and rebuffed all entreaties to
relinquish the seat.
The diminutive Senator has also been
fingered for pulling down and pouring
black oil on the APGA candidate’s
billboards placed in strategic locations
across the state. source http://www.dailytimes.com.ng/article/anambra-poll-ngige-slaps-catholic-priest

Horible lies just to discredit Ngige. I am not from Anambra, but d story above reflects an action taken by a mentally deranged person.

But what is wrong with the man?

Let us even imagine that the Priest deliberately blocked his way, is that the way to address the situation?

Many of our politicians are just advanced street thugs.

That's if the story's true.

If this incredible report is true after all, couldn't he have just become... the bolded above? God bless Nigeria.
