Ubah Gets Knock For Conduct At Debate by DanOfor: 9:17pm On Nov 05, 2013
Chief Ifeanyi Ubah
A member of the audcience during the last governorship debate in Anambra State, Mr. Okike Ozoemena, has lambasted the candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Chief Ifeanyi Ubah over what he described as his uncouth conduct during the debate.

According to him, “Ubah gave the world a foretaste of his poor breeding at the just concluded live television debate for all candidates standing election in the state when against the rules of decency and the laid down procedures of the debate, he snatched some pieces of paper which Chief Willie Obiano of the APGA had used for taking notes during the debate and dangled it before the audience for comical approval, giggling like a retard.”

He said Ubah’s poor sense of the moment began to show early when he arrived 30 minutes late to the debate, “sweating profusely and dabbing his massive forehead with a white handkerchief and quickly interrupted the opening of the show when in a gruff voice he called attention to the fact that some of the contestants had some notes with them and was quickly assured by the moderator that the ground rules of the debate only forbade candidates from reading directly from a script but that contestants could take notes and make their points thereafter.

“Unfortunately, Ubah’s well-known challenge in English Language stood in the way of his understanding and he ended up making a mockery of himself when in a manner reminiscent of his greedy grabbing of Chief Cosmas Maduka’s money for which he is facing prosecution, he noisily grabbed Chief Obiano’s notes and began to dance around the stage with them like a baboon suddenly freed from a zoo.

“The irony of Ubah’s uncouth behaviour on live television is that all through the debate, he could never make a point without looking at the one page document prepared for him by his media handlers. This assertion can be verified. “In spite of that, the Labour Party candidate kept going off point in his answers while shoring up his nuisance value with infantile bravado that attracted a mild rebuke from Chief Obiano in an effort to restore the credibility of the debate.
On one hand and save Ndi Anambra the embarrassment of having a low-life like Ubah in the race and on live television,” he said.

Ozoemena said Ubah’s performance was in contrast with Obiano’s sterling performance as he never for once looked at his notes each time he spoke, contrary to Ubah’s allegation.
“Unfortunately, neither the moderator’s earlier comment on the rules of the debate nor Chief Obiano’s gentle rebuke could restrain Ubah from self-immolation as he proceeded to snatch Obiano’s notes and make gorilla noises on the stage.

“Ifeanyi Ubah is just enjoying himself. He knows that he does not stand a chance but for him, just being seen in such a dignified company as Obiano and Ngige is enough victory. Where else would he have met with these gentlemen? What else could have brought them together if not politics? So, let him enjoy his day in the sun,” he said.

I pray these debates make impact in the Nigerian electorates, not putting up their votes for sale.
