"Anambra's Electoral Battle: A Clash of Visions for a Future Unveiled!". by ChumzyOma(f): 5:36pm On Jan 09 |
Ifeanyi Ubah Vs Chukwuma Soludo What is the real issue about? The answer is simple The first visit that the Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial District made to the Governor on his resumption in office was to donate 500 million Naira worth of security gadgets and equipment to the state. When accosted by journalists, Senator Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah inter alia made the following categorical statement: "No serious Governor will allow even one inch of the state's territory to be under the control of bandits, I will deploy my personal resources if need be to assist the state government to rid the state of insecurity, secure lives and properties and curb capital flight". The above assertion by the Senator has a biblical backing in Matthew 18 Vs 12 which reads as follows: If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, what will he do? Won't he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost? But things went sour when the Senator successfully implemented a workable security architecture using Nnewi North as a pilot scheme and the entire ndi Anambra both home and in diaspora got frenzy with excitement and started pouring encomium on the Senator. The accolades from far and wide that went the way of the Senator drove close aides of the Governor led by his special adviser on political, Mr Obiogbolu into advising him to do all within his power to stop the security architecture or his second term in office will be jeopardised. The rest they say became history as the Governor, immediately commenced what has now become a recurring series of vindictive actions by sacking with immediate effect, the chairman of the chairmen of the markets in Nnewi for leading his market leaders to a meeting at the Senator's residence to draw plans on how to end Monday sit-at-home in the commercial city. The state government thereafter withdrew all support from the Senator's security initiative and reminded him through various writeups on the media space, that he is a mere legislator and has no business delving into security matters. According to the timetable drawn by the Senator's team, the entire Anambra South would have been covered by now and the implication is that the recent attack by bandits in Aguata (the Governor's LGA) that took the lives of two policemen during the Yuletide will probably not have occurred. The Senator's decision to join the centre party (APC), in continuation of his search for a lasting resolution to the security quagmire in the state as well as the restoration of developmental indices, threw the Governor's camp into panic, the result of which has seen them descend into taking rash and irrational decisions like the currently trending one of suspending an Igwe whose ONLY crime was conferring Chieftancy Title On Senator Ifeanyi Ubah as part of the activities to mark his 20th Ofalla on the throne. That Governor Chukwuma Soludo has performed below average and also reneged on his core promises like conducting local government elections and giving the state the promised Dubai/Taiwan as well as its crude taxation policy has since become additional albatross weighing on the conscience of the Chukwuma Charles Soludo administration. The above seems to be the reason for the present recourse by the state government to engage in attacks on any stakeholder of the State that speaks out in frustration or criticises the government. Senator Dr Ifeanyi Ubah, CON on his own part has since remained undaunted and has been collaborating with various community stakeholders to spread the security architecture to their places on request. Communities like Igboukwu, Nnobi, Alor, EnuguAgidi, Abatete, etc, are presently all beneficiaries of his security equipment like high definition CCTV Cameras, walkie-talkies, solar lights and motorcycles this Yuletide with many more on the waiting list as self-help became the most viable option available to the people in the absence of state government help. Places like Osumorghu, Lilu and the entire Eboniese today are firmly under the control of bandits while the state Government like the Roman emperor fiddles and suspends Ndi Igwe whose crime is showing appreciation to their illustrious son for choosing to bell the cat despite being a legislator. Almost the entire Traditional Rulers in the state have made offers to confer chieftaincy titles on Senator Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah, CON in appreciation of his groundbreaking security initiative in the state hence the recourse by the state government to issuing threats. But the question is, can one use hands to cover the sun? © Kamen Chuks Ogbonna Nnewi, Anambra State.

Hehehe. It's easy to speak grammar,but do the talk na problem. I remember Soludo saying that southeast politicians should stop doing Nzogbu Nzogbu politics. Am shocked he is into the same brand of politics. He is on a sacking spree now in Anambra. He is even after market leaders ,Igwes are not left out . |
