Umahi: Anyim Pulled Out Of APC Defection Plan Over My Visit To Buhari by nairapark(op): 4:29pm On Nov 30, 2020
The Ebonyi State Governor, David Umahi, on Sunday revealed that he planned his defection to the All Progressives Congress together with the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator Pius Anyim.

Umahi, who disclosed this while addressing APC stakeholders at a meeting held at the Bouquet Lodge of the old Government House, Abakaliki, said Anyim backed out of the plan because he (Umahi) went to see the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rted.), over the defection plan without carrying him along.

According the governor, the plan was for Anyim and other leaders to join him in the APC two weeks after he must have successfully defected.

Umahi said he consulted all the National Assembly members and the elders in the state about his defection to the APC, adding that they gave their nod to it, and even agreed to defect with him.

He said the only grievance of the NASS members and other leaders was that he outsmarted them by joining the APC before them.

“They were planning to ambush me, but it is difficult to catch the air,” he said.


Reacting to the allegation making the round that Anyim gave him N5bn to prosecute his governorship election in 2015, Umahi said, “I was a deputy governor, somebody occupying the highest position from the South-East (referring to Anyim) went and arranged for N5bn loan for me to prosecute the presidential election for his government. I had to sell many of my property to pay back that money.”

The sudden announcement Umahi did alone without others was a betrayer of trust

Shows selfishness... Why not wait for Anyim and the 3 senators before taking the shine alone and hijacking APC state structure

Umahi would give a single press release and press and Newspapers would split it to 10 articles, and start posting it slowly with different heading daily...

Now Umahi would understand why Tinubu hardly speaks

This Umahi is already disenchantrd by his st.upid move. He is now an orphan in Ebonyi. That decision was a smart political SUICIDE!
Re: Umahi: Anyim Pulled Out Of APC Defection Plan Over My Visit To Buhari by Thegracefulness:
If this was in saner climes, until the end of this year—even until the beginning of next year, the death of forty innocent farmers would have still made major headlines, and no other news would’ve been reported. Political playgrounds would’ve been shut down. Nobody would care if Abia or Umahi wants to defect, they would focus on grieving for the bereaved.

But here we are, welcome to Nigeria, where travesty and suffering is handled like mosquitoe bites. Rub it with ointment, wham! Bam! Over to the next.

Those ones are gone, dead, and forgotten.

How did we become a place where death as numbered as forty becomes just another regular incident.

gracious! The whole of Nigeria needs therapy.

I won't crucify him after all we live in a country where defection is the order of the day.
But what I don't like is his public ranting since defection, he should focus more on the reasons for his defection and giving good governance to the good people if Ebonyi state...

This man too talk abeg. Take a fucking chill pill - relax and wait and see if your gamble pays off or fails spectacularly. It is a zero sum game. You have cast the dice, no going back. So shut the Bleep up and wait for the outcome.
