Ife ojoo na ato ochi (Bad deed that elicit laughter ).
Agba mbu otua na ogwe , agba abua otua na ogwe , obudi Ogwe ka apiri aku (If the Shield keep stopping the arrow, one will be forced to ask if the arrows were made for the Shield ? ).
Was it not Mgbeke Otiwa from AWGBU that cried na Agadi Nwanyi da nda ada na abuo , ogua ife obu na ukpa onu (When an old woman have repeated fall , she will take stock of the wares on her head ).
I am about to discuss once again the childish ighu aka na ike esi nimi which we mistake for Political aspiration and sophiscation na alaigbo , emesia anyi agba Last as usual.
When Okoko Ndem of Blesssed Memory , the man who transmitted hope and life into Biafrans through his RADIO BIAFRA TRANSMISSION during the Pogrom of 1967 , he said and i quote "onye ndi iro gbalu buru buru , na eche ndu ya nche mgbe nile" (He that lived amidst hostility should always be careful about his life).
When Pa Micheal Okpala said "First fool no be fool , na second fool be proper foolish " and when Late Igwe Silas Okaome Ezenwa , Igwe of Oka Etiti and Clan Head of NNOBI clan said "A fool at 40 is a fool rue mgbe ebighi ebi" and i agree with them , but the case of Ndigbo , we enjoy living in perpetual Political wilderness , and if you want to be euphemistic about it , you can employ the metaphor of onye be ya na agba oku , ona azu Draft na ami Nkwu na Palour .
While it is glaring with splinters of evidence that Ndigbo as a Nation have not been factored into the Political Calender of this Nation, even while the Nation know that the redemption or restoration of this Nations economy that is in Limbo lies with an Igbo Man , it is not gainsaying but uncoded truth , but the rest prefer we wander the forest of insolvency for the next 50 years instead of calling our Moses to lead us out of Bondage and house of slavery.
Sure , we all are travelling from Poverty to wretchedness and now to recession , not that we need to experiment if Ndigbo still have the same prowess we exhibited in late sixties , they knew it is active because Peter Gergory Obi showed same in Anambara when he rescued the dump of Dung we had then, a state of organised mess , assembly of insane miscreants where loonies took over the affairs , infact we have same setting with Nigeria as at then , but within 4 Years he solved that Mess and crown it with Glory.
Now that the Nation in is such condition , we need a rescue and let me assume that the North despise us, and Yoroba disdain Ndigbo for reasons of our divine favor , by that , giving Presidency to Us became a terrifying nightmare , but the last hope of solution , does it not occur to them that removing Partisan affiliation from the nexus of position would solve our quandary and give us a nation we all are wishing for?.
Why not drag Peter into HEADING OUR FINANCE, so that he will create a legacy that America will come begging us for the Formula ?
Drag him in as Minister for active WORKS and all this roads that are deplorable will become things of the past , because he will become Owalu Uzo na Ikpa Nke Mbu na Nigeria, he did in Anambara and repeating formula is still in his pocket .
Put him in charge of Petroleum , in less than 4 years we will be supplying all africans with refined Petroleum products and Nigeria Will be lending money to third world countries , and he as a person won't have added 10K to his personal wallet and won't even allow OTIMKPU LIKE ME TO WET MY BEAK as well, let me digress..
Makes me to imagine what a sick nation that even Reporters don't even help , was it not yesterday they started jaundice reporting that Buhari recalled Daura , which any reporter that worth the Onion will not join , because such cannot happen and never happen but to us wishing ills has become a symbol of define madness ..moving back on..
I saw many candidates who went to pick the over priced APGA FORMS and in readiness for Party Primaries , as much as it is fun to have this exercise , for in a long time in this Administration ,this is the only time Primaries are been conducted , but like my old man will advise with Afu ekwughi melu okenye , ma ekwue anughi melu azi (When an elder sees abormination and kept quiet, that is peril of an elder , when he speaks but the Youths develop stiff neck , then the burden in on the youth ).
I saw many people who has never Iead Meeting Umunna , never Chair common Social Club , never sat on any Board , never stayed in any crowded symposium and learn , certainly they have not served as ordinary counsellor , but they want to Cut Political teeth at National Legilative Quarters , , mbanu , oburo ka esi eme , you can never jump Primary School and enter University , ife nile nwelu nga ona adi (There are rules of engagement ), no matter how brainy a child is , he must start with Ota akara, then primary, Secondary before University , you don't just say because the Boy is a Bully , then lets export him to Secondary straight without having a kiss of the lower League in academics .
What we are poaching and preaching is Legislative affairs , which means, not only will the person be lettered , but the person wouldve cut teeth along that line in lower cadre , that way it will just be an upgrade , like we take the instance of the Lady with Midas Touch who went to Senate from House of Reps , she was able to assimilate because she has been in the system and environment , so she simply change her name Tag and became the Synosure of Eyes out there and by the time the Male will finish political mpioghari , she has landed the most Sought after Chairman of Down stream petroleum , but before she will put her office to better use for Alaigbo , our South East Judas sold her and the position in-exchange of some Northern Title called Jaguda of Shinkafi , and afterthought they offered Us a Hard core nuisance in replacement of the over qualified Female Senator , they gave us a man who do not even understand the difference between Bar brawl and Senate floor and anyi to na ukpoo ya .
A mistake i pray we should correct this time , but moving on with steady pace to avoid igbakosi okpa.
To be a Cardinal , you must serve as a Father , then move up the ladder.
If we send all this Political Rookies to our higher legislative arms , they will take 2 years to locate the real Chambers , then another 2 to know the colleagues and another tenure to start learning the real ROPE , but place our first eleven at the corridor of Bia ka ekwue , then iwu megidere na aga ama mbu , ezi igwe (They will be playing Premier league on equal basis ) .
National legislative zone is not for Brawlers , it is highly technical affairs that needs people with ability , working brain , if not we should always be placed at spectators stand , while those who are vested , tested and right in the know of the game will be atop Nku Ukwa, making case for what my Oldman said about "Ofeke amaro mgbe ekelu Nku ukwa " (A Neophyte will never know when they alloted the Breadfruit wood, , , because the Rookie will be waiting for the sharing to be apportioned , not knowing that when they fell the tree , you go and seat at a choice spot and that has become your portion )
Do you imagine how long David Mark has stayed in Senate and going back ?
Do you know why Saraki withstood the political with hunt against him ?
They have been playing the game , contrast it with that APE whose only achivement was to marry a fine girl young enough to be the Daughter and floating Airline for her back home, that one lacks expirience and common sense to learn.
Such game is "IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW" adiro akuziri ya mmadu , after all no team send Cripples to represent them in any 100 meters dash and hoping for a Medal .
If you are part of those that think or believe that in 2023 the North will smile , fold hands and pass Powers down to Ndi Be anyi , let the person come so i can sale the Sky to him because that is my fathers property.
Let me tell us the Hard brewed truth, inapauta ndia ochichi di ka inaputa Rufus Council and not this Cowardiced and jelly leg with uncordinated approach bu ukwu Nama ga eji jee Umuahia.
Like it or not, from how Jagaban is shaping his waist , he has no plans of letting us take Presidency in his life time .If we truly want it, then we have to match his meanness and gba nyabu Okpanga Azigbo ka ana ayi ara , that is when the right step will be anchored , if not adi agba aka achu ife na ata aru ..
Nezienu PDP , the line up is all Northern caliphates , with some ndi ejirim guzue from minority side of the North .
What should be our major concern now is to position our people for Speakers of eightier or Both houses and for us to get it , anyi ga eji aka na abo welu zoba ya .
We should jettison the fluff idea of sending children to the house that will drag us back to bottom of the Political ladder , that way anyi nwa inatupta Okuko Mkpuru akwu will be until Christ come .
I know that many may fault my argument because they have one or two Anyi ejebego brothers, friends , relative or Human ATM , which is selfish motivation , but what we should be planning is how to have ours at the Top of the food chain and know it that if we fail to plan , then we have planned to fail.
Ndigbo , anya saaa , , , , we have served as Political toothpick for ages , time to change the trend and gosi fa na we can play better ..
Mazi Odera POg heading to ugwu akwanga to harvest the Harvestable and if you know , you know.
