As much as we have 3 Parties going for the GUBER of my state, we expect that each party should bring her best.
We are light of the Nation and should always be the Political compass.
PDP poses more threat and walks with feathers on the Cap, but a wrong choice or choosing a candidate by sight will be a disaster for the party.
Once we made a grievous error when we choose a Candidate, an imported who wasn't tested, who have no incline of Local Politics and the Labyrinthal process of making things work right and that mistake took us back 50 years, which they discovered and started a slogan which states "50 YEARS RECOVERY PLANS".
Sorry, let me rephrase, they said it is VISION 2070..meaning they knew they trashed the progress made by the state and that it will take 50 years to recover, but the hard truth is that, who wants to wait for the 50 years?.
It get worse because they placed a man who was paid to see no crack, no putrid in the decayed system, he was placed in charge of the Vision, without minding that he can't see the Broken and or shattered System, and that was when I knew that even OKUKO OJUKWU anwugo final na the Party.
As it is time to Play Politics, what will they use as selling Point?.
Certainly not the POT HOLES laden Roads, not the Excruciating TAXES and Revenue Drive, none will have the madness to quote the LITANY OF MOU not even one was implemented, and it can't be the Lopsided empowerment which goes North, not the entire North but secluded North.
Well, they invented a CON called building a Ramshackle Football Field, which they will Commission as HAIRPORT.
They cut the cost from 730 Billion to 6 Billion which makes everything they have done to appear crooked and Fraudulent, if such gigantic shift can be made, then all other things should be viewed with Thick Lenses..
Imagine a Project that was projected to cost 2 Billion Dollars which is 730 Billion Naira, which was planned not to cost the state even Kobo.
So they brought Chinese Gardners, to pose as investors and they signed MOU which can't be quoted or sighted... Like Candle in the Wind the Project goes.
2021 is actively facing them, they have considered using the OKWABE IKWUBE that was used to occupy our Road at 3 positions, but the fear is they can't use it because it constitute Nuisance and our Children will be asking if truly there are Wise men in that state when they build that Plan less and senseless EYESORE!!
Using it may force people to resort to throwing Pure Water at them in anger.
Plus that Monument of Cement cost us 15 Billion Naira (And HAIRPORT is about to cost us 6 billion, even Helicopter can't land on it)... Desperation is bad, but trying to build this HARP HAZZARD waste is something our Lawyers should have viewed from Prism of the Court.
Sue them to bring in Engineers who will explain the Sudden Changes and how it is not waste of resources and risk to Humanity, the Gap is alarming..
What APGA need to bring now is somebody who can run on fresh Idea,independent of the Political decadence.
One who can't be said to be part of the taint, somebody who must have a Pedigree that even the status quo won't like, but who has the temerity to right the wrong.. But moving on..
The PDP Choice must be one who has pedigree, who must be down to the Job, who weights the PRO and CON,getting one who thinks he is MARADONA would be a mistake, because what we seek to change will be a minor in what we found as replacement.
One may be a fine player on street Football, but playing in a TEAM is different ball game, it is called TEAM for it needs Team work, every player on that Pitch is as important as the one who scores the Goal.
I have looked at some of the candidates and my heart grew weary and weak for, I can't be part and party to changing a Viper Snake with a COBRA.
They both hiss and lethal, the only difference is how they Coil and Pounce.
What I believe today and So help me God, is that I can't look at any EGG and establish that it is Akwa Ugo, I have learn to crack it a bit, shake it and know if the content is Reptile or UGO and PDP....
Ge nu nti... Closer look will suffice, and we must remember the legend of IGBO saying which provides "Show me your friends, and I will tell you what and not who you are".
Ewelu gbanu gbanu gwujie JI, esekpulu ani, gwuputa ya (When one hastily Cut a Tuber of Yam into two will harvesting, the person will now put his knees on the soil to excavate the remaining Half).
APC.. the CON pushed by the Diminutive will bury the party completely, because he hates to see any other person Excel where he failed and he has never given anybody ladder that led to success, so given him a ticket will bring internal war, sabotage and face off.
Despite the fact that the grace has departed from the party, but it will be a face saving to give somebody who has character your ticket, not one who think that Sun rises and set with him..
APGA.. I have seen all the quack lined up, including PETROL SELLER, The one in Charge of our unproductive Health places in the state, but I am shocked and surprise that APGA did not have in mind to bring to Fore the only Mean man in the Government who knows the work, who understand the short falls and can rectify the mistakes if giving the powers.
A Smile less one but one who is fit to face the challenges of this heart of stone Politicians.
As much as I want to leave my Fist on his face and that of APGA as a party but we are discussing my state, the future of our Children.
As we know the big men who has been jumping around in most parties have thier Children living Overseas, so they have nothing to work hard and successful for.
Building our state or future won't affect the Children one way or another... Infact what they are doing is to take what will benefit our tomorrow, export it so it can be a Cushion to thier Children whose future has been casted in Gold with price paid by us.
Unless those who have been in Political trenches, doing what is just and giving us reason to see them as NKEA BU EZIGBO NKE ANYI..
If we are people with sense in Anambra and Nigeria, we should have started asking Politicians.. Where are your Children?.
If the person has none in the state, be rest assured that he is just Hunting for what he will use to strengthen the future of his own family, but if he has his family here, they will be part of the suffering and that will make him to have mercy..,
My second mind is telling me that, once in the land of Isreal, God wanted Samuel to erect a King, he went to the House of Jesse as directed by God..
Prophet Samuel saw Eliab who is handsome and well off, he wanted to anoint him but the Lord would've given him a backhand slap for such thought...
I was thrilled with 1 Samuel 16..
6 When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and thought, “Surely the Lord’s anointed stands here before the Lord.”
7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
8 Then Jesse called Abinadab and had him pass in front of Samuel. But Samuel said, “The Lord has not chosen this one either.”
9 Jesse then had Shammah pass by, but Samuel said, “Nor has the Lord chosen this one.”
10 Jesse had seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel said to him, “The Lord has not chosen these.”
11 So he asked Jesse, “Are these all the sons you have?”
“There is still the youngest,” Jesse answered. “He is tending the sheep.”
Samuel said, “Send for him; we will not sit down until he arrives.”
12 So he sent for him and had him brought in. He was glowing with health and had a fine appearance and handsome features.
Then the Lord said, “Rise and anoint him; this is the one.”
13 So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David. Samuel then went to Ramah..end of quote..
APGA should pay attention to what the Pen is saying..
Parties should take stock of the candidates, we should be mindful of ELIAB, for he may be looking great but not God's anointed.
I Mazi Odera POg JP can't be part of any other ADAKA na Onu ENWE, that way I can stand with my head held very high and make bold to say akam di ocha.
My duty is to present facts and profiling, and the duties of the electorate is to read between the line, check out for the Fine prints, then take a stand, we should know that, do better and Vote right..
We have a 50 years to recover and another mistake will take us back 150 years..
Mazi Odera POg JP looking for his Ekpere na Abu, so he can head off to Church to sing "Abu 147- K'ora tobe ike Jisus.
All hail the power of Jesus name.
Verse 1
K'ora tobe ike Jisus,
Ka ndi-m'ozi Ya da,
Weputa okpu nke eze,
Bia me Ya Ez'ora."..
