BETWEEN OBA AND AKAN UDOFIA, WHO SHOULD STEP DOWN?

There has been a raging war of words between the camp of Akan Udofia of the APC and Bassey Albert of the YPP. Both are urging each other to step down for a combine efforts that can match Pastor Umo Eno of the PDP. What are the odds against them and who should step down.

THIS IS FOR OBA:

EMI LOKAN(It should be my turn)
Believes he has been around for a long time and should be given his turn to also be Governor; and that the other offices he held were mere sacrifices as he gained nothing at all.

AS A CONVICT:
A convict, serving prison term. His fate is hanging on the decision of the Appeal Court. He believes if he is allowed to win and gets sworn into office, he could get immunity and escape from jail sentence.

CONFESSED TO CULTISM:
OBA has publicly declared that he is a cultist. Even though he claims his own brand of cultism is because of Christ, many believe young people will likely embrace cultism so they can be relevant in his circle of associates and friends.

AN EMBODIMENT OF CORRUPTION

By his confession, he admitted before the court that he received bribes and mismanaged resources as Commissioner for Finance and Chairman of Interministerial Direct Labour Co-ordinating Committee. He is expected to use such method to fleece the treasury of the State.

AN INGRATE

OBA has benefited from government since 2007, serving as a Commissioner for finance for nearly eight years, and serving as a Senator for two terms. Yet complains of not being well rewarded. People see him as an ingrate, considering that many people have not gained such privileges in the party since 1999.

EGOISTIC, PROUD AND ARROGANT
OBA is a very highly temperamental and arrogant person. Even as a convict given temporary freedom on health grounds, he physically molested an electoral officer in the just-concluded Presidential and National Assembly elections. Can such a character have the temerity to lead a people.

SELF CENTERED WITH GREEK GIFTS
OBA was never a giver before he joined government and has no record of philanthropy and generosity before 2007. His arrest by EFCC and subsequent conviction shows that he only diverted public funds meant for the general public, to buy peanuts for a few people.

SHOWS NO CAPACITY TO CREATE WEALTH
No record of any factory, or business center to employ people despite all his years in government. Without a second address, OBA may do anything to remain in government all through the remaining days of his life.

Despite all these, he believes he stands a greater chance and has made the greater sacrifice than Akan Udofia.
