Like Ikpeazu, Like Otti

OPINION#Abia, #AlexOtti, #Dr.OkezieIkpeazu, #LabourParty, #Pdp

Like Ikpeazu, Like Otti By Charity Uwakwe Politics aside, one cannot place Dr. Alex Otti and Governor Ikpeazu side by side in any facet. They are entirely two different personalities. When this topic dropped in my mind, at first, I was completely at a loss of what to do or even write because, I figured a lot of contradictions in the two personalities. And I began to wonder why the comparison. Why not Chief Okay Ahaiwe, the Governorship candidate of People's Democratic Party, PDP, I had wondered before suddenly, I woke up with a start just…

IKPEAZU AND OTTI: Birds Of Different Feathers (OPINION) By Charity Uwakwe Politics aside, one cannot place Dr. Alex Otti and Governor Ikpeazu side by side in any facet. They are entirely two different personalities. Evidently, one would, without write because, I figured a lot of contradictions in the two personalities. And I began to wonder why the comparison. Why not Chief Okay Ahaiwe, the Governorship candidate of People's Democratic Party, PDP, I had wondered before suddenly, I woke up with a start just to realise it was a mandate. You must do this so you can save a soul, a…

Why We Endorsed The Candidacy Of Dr. Otti…Abia Rejoice Movement

OPINION, POLITICS#AbiaRejoiceMovement, #AlexOtti

Why We Endorsed The Candidacy Of Dr. Otti...Abia Rejoice Movement Amongst the list of qualified candidates seeking to become the next Governor of Abia State, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti stands atop and most qualified, hence we endorsed him. You may recall that our principal Dr. Uche Sampson Ogah as a result of clarion call a few years ago by well meaning Abians and on personal conviction to offer purposeful leadership joined partisan politics, regrettably, he was schemed out for 2023 gubernatorial election by forces within and outside Abia. “The ultimate measure of a man is not…

They Are Two Of A Generational Gifts To Abia, Nigeria In General

OPINION, POLITICS#AlexOtti, #UcheOgah

They Are Two Of A Generational Gifts To Abia, Nigeria In General They both worked very hard and are still working hard positively to maintain their names and sterling reputation. They are trained bankers and technocrats of note. Experience is not bought in the market place. They are given red carpets anywhere they go in Nigeria and beyond.. They are not products of Abia political establishment, their success is not accidental and they are not among the list of questionable characters. If Dr. Uche Ogah is not on the ballot for the Abia governorship contest…

Tenth National Assembly: A Fair Bargain For South East Overdue

OPINION#BolaTinubu, #MuhammaduBuhari, #Ndigbo, #NigeriaSenatePresident

Tenth National Assembly: A Fair Bargain For South East Overdue By Ifeanyi Okali It was Holly Black who said, "We don't need to be good. But let's try to be fair". Since the beginning of the current political dispensation in 1999, there is arguably any region that has been unfairly treated like the South East region of the country. It has again resonated with an age-long animosity, strife and suspicion, leading to a heightened campaign for self-determination and balkanisation in sheer contrast to the dreams of our founding fathers. Apart from being the only zone that has not produced an…

Abia 2023: A Fresh Start With Otti?

OPINION#AlexOtti, #LabourParty, #NnaemekaOruh

Abia 2023: A Fresh Start With Otti? I think I can write a book about any profession I have been in and it will be legit. I have always given my spirit, soul, and body, wherever I found myself. The great thing is that if and when I talk, it is always backed with evidence. And of course, I know all the “big people”. ???? I have always had a pure heart. Never been blinded by personal interests. That’s why no one can ever accuse me of hypocrisy. Well, no objective person. I don’t think Abia needs PDP or APC…

OPINION: Four frontrunners in Enugu guber race

OPINION#Enugu2022

OPINION: Four frontrunners in Enugu guber race Outsiders and resident political neophytes have quaked and shivered over the noises generated by the activities of social media crusaders on who leads the pack of four frontrunners in the governorship election of Enugu State. The attendant disturbances have snowballed into name calling and charges, often accentuated in denial of profiles of the contenders, to score some cheap points. Those who had been of the Ebeano political organization now deny their membership and join in clubbing it to the ground. The ones who are kit and kin and thorough bred…

Otti’s Alleged Plan to Downsize Abia Workforce is Propaganda *The Otti that I know... By Sam Okoro The Abia State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) recently embarked on an aggressive, fresh, ill-conceived and malicious propaganda to disparage the governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Dr Alex Otti and stir public disaffection toward him. The ruling party is going about alleging that the former Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of the defunct Diamond Bank Plc is harbouring a sinister plan to downsize the Abia State workforce, when elected governor. This is obviously a clear case of blackmail…

(FACT-CHECK) IKPEAZU'S SUDDEN LOVE FOR ABIA WORKERS: A Destructive Blessing *When a naked man promises you a dress- By Charity Uwakwe During my secondary school days and in one of the subjects- Literature, I had come across a certain word "Oxymoron". I loved this word so much that when we were told the meaning, it stuck more deeply in my heart than all other figurative language tools Oxymoron, I was taught, simply means "the lying side -by side of two contradictory words. One of the illustrations that I also had stuck in my head was "A destructive blessing". At first,…

Why Governor Sanwo-Olu deserves a second term by Dr. Ayo Ogunsan

OPINION, POLITICS#AyoOgunsan, #BabajideSanwo-Olu, #LagosStateGovernent

Why Governor Sanwo-Olu deserves a second term by Dr. Ayo Ogunsan Except, of course, one wants to be economical with the truth or deliberately turn a blind eye to it, the many wonders of the Executive Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, in the city of excellence, Lagos, are too numerous to mention, making him deserve a second term in office. I daresay that every Lagosian can attest to the fact that the amiable governor had done remarkably well, touching all sectors of human endeavour as he religiously strives to fulfil all his campaign promises as promises…
