Sacking of non-indegenes by Abia state led Gov. T.A. Orji.
Leaders should Be Creative and not Destructive
The lessons from the life of Steve Jobs should be taught
to some of the so called Igbo Leaders. Talent or position
is given to one, not for destruction of other lives but for
the advancement of society and mankind in general. A
teacher is creative in classroom to impact knowledge to
learners, a physician is consumed with investigation of
abstract matters to save more and more lives, a lawyer
speaks eloquently to defend citizens and protect human
rights, and so is the case with others working in various
human organizations.
In a free world, government makes laws that will
guarantee right to livelihood. Even in communist nations
laws are made in consideration of food, shelter and
family. But in Nigeria a politician is in to rob public treasury
at the expense of the citizens. Also laws are made as in
the case of T.A Orji to divert attention for inept political
leadership. By his actions, he has instituted secular drama
of which the new actors are ordinary citizens and few
concerned politicians that want to make headlines.
I will point to the fact that he, Governor Orji and his
overzealous advisers have been spared and ignored on
their excesses, endemic corruption, intimidation tactics
and mind boggling fiscal policies. Leadership comes with
creativity and vision. So what can we allude to T. A. Orji,
who has willfully imposed economic hardship on fellow
Igbos? By expelling non indigenes of Abia from Public
service, the governor cannot assert that the victims of
his repression is the reason why Aba(The Great Enyimba
City) has turned out to be, one of the worse slums since
independence. Many of these sacked non-indigenes have families and ppl depending on them for sustainance, and many of them have lost their lives as a result of hardship and trauma
Naïve intellectual citadels of isolation or disunity cannot
proffer well in 21st century. Today, the world has gone
global in so many ways including goods and services. The
goal now, is to have a planetary village that endorses
both collective human activities and collective human
endeavors. Such activities shun boundary restrictions as it
fosters great many ideas that will profit regions. While I
pause, I will caution that the Governor needs no applause
for letting these disengaged/dislocated workers flourish in his state
for so long. Examining closely, I will bet that most of the
laid-off workers if not all were born and raised in Abia State.
In democracy as we profess in Nigeria, goals are not set
by edicts while on top. But it is done by negotiations,
bargaining and inclusion of stakeholders’ interest. What
argument will Mr. Governor advance in defense, if other
Abia citizens all over the world are sent back to Abia
state for means of livelihood?
Mr. Governor, your action is not leadership, it is
incompetence framed in political fear, wickedness, act of man
inhumanity to and man and Anti-Ndigbo.
God will surely judge us all..!
