Yeah not a bad idea. Time to repay C.C.Onoh for championing and fighting for the creation of Enugu state.

Nope. Isiuzo is in Enugu East
You just contradicted yourself. Enugu East is known as the Nkanu zone. It has five local government: Enugu North, Enugu South, Isi Uzo, Nkanu East and Nkanu West. Isi Uzo was carved out from Nsukka. Picking a governor from Isi Uzo just after an Nsukka man has done 8 years is not likely going to happen. That will be interpreted as Nsukka people not wanting to let go of power after doing their own 8 years. It's even funny that the people clamouring for Isi Uzo are those from Nzukka Zone.

Hmmm.... This man they said he cares more about animals than human beings. That means animals' rights will be respected more than those of humans if he becomes Governor.

So what happens to the zoning arrangement ,I thought it's the turn of nkanu to produce the governor after nssukka, .. for equity both onoh and ikeoha should go and sit down until it gets to their turn.
who is the likely person from nkanu? Any potential names this far?

These folks want to create unnecessary mayhem. The agreement between stakeholders in Enugu PDP is that each of the three Senatorial Zones will produce the Governor, while others wait their turn. The incumbent is from Nsukka/Udenu District and the next Governor ought to emerge from Nkanu/Enugu South etc. Onoh is from Udi so should wait until eight years.
who could likely come up from nkanu?

Isiuzo is in Enugu East Senatorial Zone. They are not in Enugu North Senatorial Zone. They have been denied so many things like Esut VC on account of being in Enugu East. Culturally, they are in Igbo Nsukka or what is known as Igbo Odo but in terms of Enugu politics, they are in Enugu East(your Nkanu zone)

Chimaroke represented Nkanu east/Nkanu west as a governor. Do you expect the governor to come from this Zone when Isiuzo have not produced a governor?

The power rotation formula is also against governor ugwuanyi. It is the turn of Igboeze south to represent Nsukka zone in the Senate.

Senator okoro fidelis from Nsukka represented Nsukka/Igboeze south

Senator Ayogu Eze from Igboeze north represented Igboeze north/ Udenu

Senator Chukwuka Utazi from Uzo uwani represented Igbo etiti/ Uzouwani

The senatorial position is going back to Nsukka/Igboeze south. Since, Nsukka has gone to the Senate, the position is going to Igboeze south, Honourable Patrick Asadu's LGA.

It is wrong to allow Isiuzo, a local government area in Enugu East that is culturally Nsukka, to produce the next governor after an Nsukka man has done 8 years. Mbanu!

But it is very right to for the Zone that have produced a governor to produce another governor? When do you think Isiuzo will ever produce a governor with this formula? Or are they spectators only?

The next governor of Enugu state is Chijioke Edeoga. There is nothing you or anybody can do about it

Does it not bother you that the people agitating for Isi Uzo to produce the next governor are people from Nsukka zone? Can't you see that an Isi Uzo governor means another 8 years for Nsukka? This is not fair to other zones.

Who are the other zones that the power rotation is not fair to?

The zones that have produced governor before?

Even if a rat comes out from Isiuzo, we will vote for it and it must win the election. QED

Who is this Edeoga? Is he a professional politician? Let's have his CV please.

I ask because Enugu is tired of professional politicians like Gburugburu.

God have mercy on Enugu State. This man has been part of the political establishment since 1992 this guy is the Professor of Professional Politicians.

See Nigeria is on the road to Restructuring, if in doubt look at the constitutional amendment.
Enugu needs onye ma ihe, someone with Ideas that can increase Enugu's IGR, solve security issues, invest in our Infrastructures, health, education, make Enugu top investment destination in SE region with little or noincrease in Tax. I'm sorry no professional politician in Enugu has such ideas (i pray I'm wrong).

Isi Uzo have a good case but let me ask, Ona Isi Uzo enwero a Technocrat or Successful Businessman?

It wasn't zoned to nkanu, rather it was zoned to Enugu east / Isi-uzo senatorial district.... So Isi-Uzo still stands a chance of winning the ticket bro

There's nothing bad in giving it to the isi uzo man. Why were they carved out from Nsukka into Enugu east?.... Because of politics abi, now Karma is knocking on the door and all those nkanu men are fidgeting.lol. it's not just Enugu east rather it's Enugu east / Isi uzo senatorial district. That "/" in the name means a lot bro. They are different people. It's their turn, nature and zoning formula made it so. Why won't the Nsukka man clamor for an Isi uzo man to be in the govt househuh They are brothers...that's just the truth and nothing can be done about it.

About 12 years ago, an Isi-uzo man was supposed to be the V.C for ESUTH but he was rejected by the government of Enugu state and Nkanu people...Why??
You already know the answer.........they said he was from Nsukka and and Nsukka man can't be VC in Nkanu land..never!!, and he lost the post. It won't happen again this time
