When the out-going governor of Abia state Chief Theodore Ahamefula Orji used the word “Must” to qualify his position of ceding power to an Ukwa/Ngwa Man come 2015,many didn’t comprehend nor understood what that word Represents.
To me,as social media activist,i took that word “Must” very serious because ,when a man functions at the areas of his expertise,he practicalyy becomes a god in it,Abians know their out-going governor as a man who will use the available thugs to achieve and hunt anyone one who dares questions his administrative harsh and painful orders.
In 2010,Chief T.A Orji went on air to blame former governor of Abia state and his mother as the reason behind his ill-performance between May 29th 2007 till August 3rd 2010,he went to the extent of telling the World that he inherited over 3Billion Debt from his the political godfather who brought him out from prison,foisted him on PPA and later forced Abians to accept the Ibeku Man as their Governor,a little protest went viral,but it was later calmed down when those who raised genuine questions were rewarded with contracts or political appointments to keep mute and dance to the tune of the music.
Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe was among the few who never welcomed the developemt,Abaribe contested the Abia South Senatorial Seat under the platform of PDP despite the fact that Orji Uzor Kalu’s Party(PPA) was on ground and later won the election,luckily for Abaribe he was declared Senator-Elect in 2007,but today he is a major player in the Ukwa/Ngwa cause even when he,contested election in 2003,but failed to his former boss,maybe the word Ukwa/Ngwa turn was not yet coined then.
It was a veritable bugaboo and a crinkum-crankum for Abians to be fooled in 2015 with Equity,Turn,UkwaNgwa or what have you,when the people fails to look before they leap,then destruction is at the mercy of their shoes,it is painful,it is deceitful,it is a total deviation from the tenets of Democracy for a man to hold Professionals and Abians for Ransom for more than 8yrs unchallenged.
I am writing today because Power will change hands in the center from May 29 2015,if not i have already been informed that i have been placed on Hunt and Watch List,for possible severe action,simply because i stood out from the crowed and embraced Change.
For Chief Orji to use te word must,in qualifying his bid to move power to Ukwa/Ngwa means there is more to what he told his party the (PDP). In 2014,Abians received the plot by Chief Orji to hide in the senate,while his wife hides at the House of Representatives and finally Chinedum Enyinnaya Orji covers the Abia state house of Assembly as the speaker,out of the three,two worked,although not perfectly well because Ikuku may not get his desire,which is to be the speakers of Abia state House of Assembly .
Ukwa-Ngwa governor has divided Abia state between the Oldbende and the Ngwa-People,the choice of Ukwa-Ngwa governor has made Civil Servants in Abia to go beggen before they could eat,the choice of the Ukwa-Ngwa governor has created hatred among the youths,the Choice of Ukwa/Ngwa governor has rendered Aba dirty,the choice of Ukwa/Ngwa governor has introduced a balloting system in the Local goverment,were YES/NO is the option used in paying workers,the choice of Ukwa-Ngwa governor has consolidated continuity of a failed Government,the choice of Ukwa-Ngwa governor is leaving a legacy of a disconnected government.
