Ben Ayade And Ivara Esu, His Deputy: Nobody Knows Tomorrow by NORSYK(op): 10:02pm On Dec 28, 2019
Nobody Knows Tommorow-Ben Ayade and his Deputy By Okazu Powers (YouSabiPowers)

In the picture, you see Professor Ivara Esu(OFR)-The Deputy Governor of Cross Rivers State holding an Umbrella for his Boss Professor(Sen) Ben Ayade-The Governor of Cross Rivers State.

Forget your principles of Humility, Servanthood is the way up. Power doesn't look at Age but authority.

Remember say "Oga na Oga"
Let me take you on a journey that would blow your mind.

When Iva Esu was a Lecturer at Kaduna State Polytechnic in 1975, Benedict Ayade was just a 6-year-old boy in Primary school in Obudu in Calabar Cross Rivers State.

When Ayade was in the University doing his masters degree at The University of Ibadan after He had just concluded his BSC at Ambrose Ali University in Benin, Ivara Esu was already a Professor and then The Commissioner for Agriculture, Water Resources and Rural Development in Cross Rivers State.
When Ben Ayade finished his PHd and Became a Junior Lecturer in Delta State University Abraka, Ivara Esu was already The Dean of Faculty of Agriculture in The University of Calabar.

When Ben Ayade became a senior Lecturer and was working towards publishing journals and making international Researches, Professor Ivara Esu was made The Vice Chancellor of The University of Calabar in the Year 2000.

When Ayade became a Professor and was appointed as Chairman Ecological Funds and then Member of Cross River State Poverty Alleviation Board, Prof. Ivara Esu had recieved a National honour from Fmr. President Olusegun Obasanjo as An Officer of the Federal Republic(OFR) in 2005 for his patriotic contribution to building of our nation. He was later appointed The Hon. Minister for State for Tourism, Culture and National Orientation in January 2007 and Then the Chairman Board of Management FMC Owerri.

In 2011, Ben Ayade ventured into Politics and ran for Senate, He won in a Landslide victory. Prof Ivara Esu(OFR) was appointed Chairman Nnamdi Azikiwe Teaching Hospital and a National Consultant.

In 2015, Prof.(Sen) Ben Ayade ran for Governor of Cross Rivers State and Prof. Ivara Esu ran as His deputy instead of the other way round..
That is the irony of Life.

Now look at the Timeline of Events and How God elevated "a very Small Boy into a Biggy man". His own deputy who was already a Lecturer while He was in Primary school. A man who graduated from the University a Year after He (Ben Ayade) was Born now answers to him. A man whose C.V and pedigree beats his own hands down but now serves under his Leadership and administration. Holding an Umbrella for his Boss wasn't a Big Deal for Prof. Ivara Esu.

Always Remember, "OGA NA OGA"
Forget it..You don't know Tomorrow, Humble yourself
HUMBLE YOURSELF, DON'T LET SMALL LIFTING YOU ARE SEEING TODAY MAKE YOU LOOK DOWN ON PEOPLE
NOBODY WEY NO FIT MAKE AM..HUMBLE YOURSELF

Still make sense because both are professors, what about Bubu n Osibande

What if I tell you that your governors and presidents are just frontmen and stooges for the people actually running the government?
Re: Ben Ayade And Ivara Esu, His Deputy: Nobody Knows Tomorrow by herzernIsHere: 10:49pm On Dec 28, 2019
So, we have a state in Nigeria where the governor and the deputy governor are Professors?

Interesting.

"Academia" grin

What are their disciplines BTW?

Hmmmm. I guess you've not been to Ebonyi state. They are better off than Abia and Imo in SE as far as i know.
Re: Ben Ayade And Ivara Esu, His Deputy: Nobody Knows Tomorrow by Wiseandtrue(f):
I was hoping to read what the 2 gurus have accomplished in that state undecided

Was Ayade not the one that arrested a journalist simply because he criticised himhuh

Yet you are talking about humility, Is Ayade humble or toleranthuh

This self praising should be done by the people of their state based on their accomplishments

Anything short of that has no lesson to be learnt.

Mtcheeeeeeew

Advancedman:
Humility is not in the piece at all.
It's just somebody working for someone he can give birth to as regards age difference.
Not like ayade being his student or worked under him at anytime or a subordinate and now there is a swap.
People just write for rubbish sake.
I tell you! OP has further exposed Ayade's arrogant nature to the public!!!

One of the AIM of the education he so much spoke about is RESPECT for the elders

Ayade no go school, na school pass through am!!!

If that deputy is the one obasanjo gave national honours many years back as if he had made some kind of invention, then its safe to say Nigerian academics are all paper and have nothing to offer..
My children must school abroad

Exactly.

No lessons here except that Ivara Esu is a greedy and an insatiable human being without a shred of personal dignity. Same qualities apply to the governor too...
Re: Ben Ayade And Ivara Esu, His Deputy: Nobody Knows Tomorrow by TheFacelessMan:
Wow. Interesting career paths.

I remember when I was a killer for the KGB.

Sergey Kolarov was the head of the assasination unit with 99 confirmed kills.

My first kill was John F. Kennedy, the U.S. President

and that's how I became Kolarov's boss.

1 is at times greater than 100.

I once used 1 bullet for 3 people...

Really big shame, there is something that changes Nigerians for the bad when they occupy public office.

Correctly put.
The Iva Esu should be nominating his boy to be deputy to Ayade not taking the post. He obviously did it for pecuniary reasons.
Ayade himself should probably have stepped down for the older man

You see.

Rather we need dedicated bricklayers, vulcanizers, roadside mechanics, tailors etc as governors and president.
Re: Ben Ayade And Ivara Esu, His Deputy: Nobody Knows Tomorrow by DIKEnaWAR:
I read all these patiently, and all I can say is that Prof Ivara Isu is a biish and a55 licker. Was he elected to hold umbrella for Ayade the "Quabalistic budget" governor? This does not show humility or loyalty but lack of self confidence.

Ls las, Ayade won't handover to him.

Ayade will handover to him from Kirikiri prison were he will be cellmates with Orji Kalu.

Re: Ben Ayade And Ivara Esu, His Deputy: Nobody Knows Tomorrow by backnbeta(f):
Story is not very impressive and nothing new...Ayade never worked directly under Ivara Esu. Ivara Esu is just a typical greedy naija politician, holding Ayade's umbrella shows no humility but desperation, IMO undecided

It's the same with Dick Cheney and Bush Jnr, Joe Biden and Obama, Uduaghan and that Professor from Unilag who was Ibori's SSG. A sensible guy would take a more experienced politician who would be a confidant and guide him in making tough decisions.

So it's not a big deal and this write up needn't have flogged the issue needlessly. Ivarah Esu is obviously more experienced in government matters than Ayade. That is the crux of their combination, and not for Ivarah being a servant to Ayade.
