It would give traction on rhetoric if what is much said is still accorded a repetitive vacuum. The good news is, politics in this century is characterized with massive indulgence, to the extent that ones integrity, moral and political stance can easily be questioned when obvious facts are twisted over egos of stigma. Be it for or against, the non discriminatory code is- sustainable Kogi east Senatorial districts. It’s the consciousness of aspirants in executing the subconsciousness via political mantra
No doubt, philanthropic gestures is unconstitutionally the parameter consigning staff of office to any political aspirant, and as the writer puts- Echocho is no strange name when men are called upon to parade their good deeds on the pedestal of life. But I think this impunity is already in excess. As humans, it’s all-important we realise good legacies as the most substantial achievement in life’s struggles which comes through social and moral percussions.
So I must say, it’s rather hapless that notions of giving is no longer viewed as a natural obligation but an avenue to orchestrate ambition. Morally, the principle of giving advocates reticent knowledge between the giver and the recipient- and when you give, do not let your left hand know what the right hand is doing. Why then do we leverage on the supposedly willful acts to impose a man whose political career flourishes on nefarious symptoms of societal abhorrence such as; godfatherism and loyalty? In political quantification, i think Echocho has done the implausible by scooching so low to Yahaya Bello and Edward Onoja’s political class.
It is on record that his role in the emergence of the current and disastrous administration is spectacular, in such a way that we presumed Echocho would be rewarded with the deputy governorship slot. But lo and behold! His political apropos was not seen on the bearing as GYB tactically detours for a man who bypassed the state legislative interview to become his deputy.
Again, we all are sightseers of the current political and economic frailties posing comminations to our existence, we have seen the intellectuality of the number one leader from the minority group. We have seen how the plight of a common man was traded for political gimmickry, how our resources has been used to acquire properties in and outside the country, how state allocations was used to charter private jet with which cronies and concubines were conveyed to Dubai for festivity celebration. We have seen how loyalty brought terrorists that are currently killing our people for suya. We have seen how salaries and emoluments of civil servants are been used to enrich few pockets and the innocent people were left for poverty, hunger and starvation to decide their fate. We have witnessed ridiculous debts capable of throwing the state into seeking financial succor from it’s counterparts, and if we must decide the future with the current political atmosphere, everyone knows GYB and his cohorts has no progressive agenda for the people even in the next twenty years.
So the question you and I must ask is; can a well meaning kogite as portrayed of Echocho possibly align himself with
such government that has no clue perhaps chose to ignore the plights of common man?
No doubt, Echocho is bent on crashing the gate of power so as to perpetrate personal frustrations hence, the exploration of options available. To be candid, the current political entente between himself and GYB justified the absence of morality and low integrity in him. As a matter of reality, whoever dares to say Echocho bears the interest of the people in mind is simply an apostle of deceit laying our constituency to destruction. He lacks a Legislative blueprint devoid of self enrichment and connections, besides, he is now part of those sharing civil servants salaries and entitlements as his campaign is currently been fund directly from the state confers.
The foes in the entire narrative are; those clamoring for his emergence as lawmaker, the future and the give and take politics Yahaya Bello is currently playing in the geo political zone.
Those that sees Echocho as an alternative to none are simply blinded by the financial inducement been perpetrated by Edward Onoja across the nine local governments as well as other personal gain they tends to achieve. It is also on good note to inform the general public how non payment of workers salaries was practically suggested so as to create a helpless situation that would eventually give GYB a smooth ride in 2019. Hence, the psychological and emotional trauma which compelled the people into admiring the so called inducement as remedy to their predicament. Of course! No man watches his lovely family die of hunger when he can actually gets millions of Naira by the virtue of finger thumb print.
Our future is at stake, in fact, Aidoko’s would be a mere joke compare to the plagues that would befall the land should Echocho becomes our senator in 2019. Everyone knows that the expectations are very high and the means should be available now or never. Therefore, clamoring for a man who had realigned with the enemies of the land spells a clear destitution. As compatriots, the rights are fundamental to seek for an avenue to serve our fatherland but in all, we must bring to the fora the supremacy of the land’s interest in our quests. This is what Echocho’s political ambition lacks in extreme. In shorts, GYB’s give and take politics which is currently in play is, simple; To impose Echocho on the people so that his selling charisma would in turn secure Kogi east coast for his re-election in 2019.
In pursuance of the myopic ego, the administrator of Igalamela/Odolu local government who was rumored to have outshined the governor himself in terms of infrastructural development, upon noticing his intent to contest for Kogi east’s senatorial position was given a sack letter. This was followed by a memo from the governor through the office of the secretary to the state government asking all political appointees with intentions to contest for elective position to resign, an act that brought Edward Onoja’s Senatorial aspirations to a halt.
The time is ripe to put a full stop on unpatriotic shenanigans of branding individuals for elective positions as it’s furtherance posits an aberration on our existence as Democratic entity. As for the paid writers, we have it on self accord how tussles between clans on who emerges as community monarch has triggered hatred for other aspirants. But in the fullness of time, the eagle shall soar beyond the coast of contends as the strength of it’s wing is determined solely by the cheerful air (Kogi Easterners).
God bless Kogi East.
