HOW GOV. CHIME AND HIS FACTION IN PDP WERE HUMBLED
Tectono Business Review gathered that the conduct of the Enugu State PDP House of Assembly primary election was peaceful without issues as both Gov. Chime’s faction and that of Ekweremadu agreed and harmonized in the interest of PDP and the state. This harmonization made it possible for delegates ‘elected’ on November 1, 2014 congress to be accepted and used for the House of Assembly primaries and will be used in subsequent primaries.

The use of the delegates who emerged during the congress on the 1st day of November, 2014 by itself has placed Governor Chime and his team in a precarious political position of uncertainty. The incumbent House of Assembly members seeking re-election were thrown to a very rough political terrain. It is more like bringing the hunters and the hunted together as the hunted have taken the power to decide the faith of the hunters.

We gathered that the beehive of activities centered at the residence of the Deputy Senate President, Chief Ike Ekweremadu. It was heard that majority of the incumbent House of Assembly members went through the gates of his Independence Layout residence seeking support from the new David of Enugu State politics—a feat impossible in the recent past.

However, Ekweremadu, in his disposition of humility, directed them to go meet with their delegates because the result of the primary election will be the decision of the people through the elected delegates of November 1, 2014. One of such desperate incumbent and a prominent member of Gov. Chime’s faction seen at the premises was Hon. Sunday Ude-Okoye, the majority leader of the house and the champion of the ‘chicken impeachment’ of the deputy governor.

Wow!!! We heard that Hon. Ude-Okoye was so desperate to the extent of kneeling down before Ekweremadu. He was swiftly ushered out to meet with the elected delegates and the people of Awgu-North. At the end of it, the pleading and begging did not help as the delegates and majority of the people of Awgu- North rejected Hon. Ude-Okoye, staunch loyalist of Gov. Chime, because of his high-handedness and hostility towards his own Awgu people – the same people he was supposed to be representing.

Among the many incumbents and loyalists of Gov. Chime who kissed the dust includes but not limited to the member representing Oji-River. The man was seen sweating profusely at the gate after the delegates and the people of Oji-River had rejected his quest to return to the house. The reason for his rejection is not known at this time.

Similar situations played out throughout the 17 local government areas of the state as incumbents most of them Gov. Chime’s loyalists were seen begging for their seats and the delegates making decisions on who gets elected or rejected. The good news about this is that internal democracy has returned to Enugu State PDP. Those nominated by PDP were by the will of the people and not by the imposition of bigwig politicians.

"Those nominated by PDP were by the will of the people and not by the imposition of bigwig politicians."
Now, that sounds more like democracy than Chime's dictatorship.

Nice! I wished dis can be done at levels. I juz wish!
