Selection Of Candidate In Ward 16 Onelga... by Ariodunwabueze: 10:33pm On Apr 20, 2018
ONELGA, is too volatile a place to be hijacking and handpicking elections candidates before the primaries of the party.

That somebody is the chairman of the party doesn't confer on him the power to singlehandedly handpick all counselors and chairman of his LGA.

If somebody did same to him when he was rising politically, he would have cried out for oppression and injustice.

The truth is that the duo of big wigs, in collusion with the estranged brother of the counsellorship candidate, Uche Nnam Obi, are afraid of the force which the young aspirant, Obi Michael Nnamdi, pulled on the 17th of April 2018, hence they couldn't even appear to address the people or present their candidate, but claimed they had disqualified him. 

How do you disqualify somebody whom you screened and certified? This is nothing but a charade, a mockery and rape of Democratic ideals.

Observers have it on record, that the omn GROUP, as the massive supporters of the aspirant are recognized, may mark the birth of a strong political force in ONELGA, which if not handled carefully, may play into the hands of desperate opposition party.

Videos are available to buttress their position, that no primaries were conducted in their ward, not even a visit by any party official despite the teemingONELGA, is too volatile a place to be hijacking and handpicking elections candidates before the primaries of the party.

Videos are available to buttress their position, that no primaries were conducted in their ward, not even a visit by any party official despite the teeming numbers of electorate waiting from 8 am to 4pm.

Yet it had been announced severally by the State governor, Chief Ezebunwu Nyesom Wike that there shall be no imposition of candidates on the people in the party primaries of the PDP in Rivers State.

Now that the fraudulent deed is done, it is only fair that the party reaches out to the young man and his group and treat this matter with the urgency which it requires.

Granted there has been widespread claims of imposition of candidates on virtually all LGAs of Rivers State, but that of ONELGA ward 16 ought to be an exception going by it's sensitive nature and of the forces involved. A Popular Prince versus a lordly Party Chairman.

We can only wish for peace in the days ahead, but with this dracolian and suppressive style of leadership by the party chairman who prefers to impose members of his GO-GROUND Community on the LGA, there is no guarantee that the fragile peace in ONELGA may truly last.

I suspect, if not properly addressed, their may be pandemonium because of this political imprisonment of the youths beginning with this prince.

Let him that think he stands, take heed lest he fall. numbers of electorate waiting from 8 am to 4pm.
