Sebastine Okoh and His Infantile Ranting.

By Jonathan Onwuka.

The recent vituperation by Sebastine Okoh, APC House of Representatives aspirant in Ika Federal Constituency, against Governor Ifeanyi Okowa reeks of the highest form of arrogance and outright disrespect to the person of His Excellency, the Governor.

Does Okowa need Okoh to be voted for? Who is he compared to Okowa whose political sagacity has transcended state politics? Governor Okowa is a national political figure whose political and administrative exploits have been proven over the years, and keeps towering by the day.

Without mincing words, I boldly say that Mr Okoh, who obviously has a bloated impression of himself, does not deserve to have a place in public life because of his penchant to attack his superiors.

This political neophyte that can best be described as an over ambitious local champion who was under the privileged tutorship of Gov. Okowa but was not patient enough to learn, now compares himself to his former boss, who provided him with the platform from which he launched his inordinate ambition.

One wonders exactly what Okoh was trying to tell the people of Ika federal constituency by that outburst? That they should sacrifice the position of Governor for his selfish ambition, which has turned him into a desperate political actor? Does the guy think at all?

How many Ika people can Okoh empower with House of Reps position? How many roads can be built by being a legislator? Political interest sometimes demands that partisanship be sacrificed for the greater good of all.

I am not in any way saying that Okoh does not have the right to aspire to political office but attacking Governor Okowa should be condemned by well-meaning sons and daughters of Ika nation. Mr Okoh should know his limits.

He is obviously a novice in political engagements as he has shown with his recent unwarranted outburst.

Though it is the duty of the people of Ika federal constituency to decide who represents them at the Green Chamber, it should be a man who with a sense of decorum and political sagacity.

Who has ever heard Mr Okoh tell the people of Ika what he will do for them if given the opportunity to serve in the Green Chamber?

All he keeps saying is that he will empower the youth as if the job of law making is all about empowerment. It is obvious that Mr Okoh knows next to nothing about the business of legislation.

He should be the one pleading to be voted for alongside the doyen of Delta State politics, Gov. Okowa and not the other way round. A word is enough for the wise.

He's a scammer scamming away the mind of the youth. When he entered into politics with strategy of carnivals and pageantry I became suspicious of him. He's a novice in the game of power. Playing according to the laws Very easy for any enlightened soul to discern.
