Re- LG funds: APC seeks EFCC probe of Obiano, condemns suspension of Monarchs- Sun Newspaper

“I will not mince words in saying that Anambra State APC chairman in the person of Basil Ejidike is beating around the bush.

 

He is not genuinely interested in the conduct of local government election.

 

Ndi Anambra need to be told in plain language that Anambra APC is the clog on the wheel of Governor Obiano’s sincere desire to conduct local government election in our State.

As they are making noise for the conduct of local government election, knowing very well that it’s impossible to do that because of the appeal instituted by them at the Supreme Court, they are busy making an evil scheme to use the Court to take over Anambra Local governments without an election.

I have said this before and am saying it again, if the opposition party want Governor Obiano to conduct local government election, they should withdraw their appeal at the Supreme Court.

 

Telling Governor Obiano to conduct local government election when an appeal at the Supreme court will not allow him to do so is tantamount to telling him do something that will be declared null and void by Supreme Court at the end of the day.

 

The same anti democratic elements that want to take over Anambra state local government through the backdoor without an election are the same people masquerading to be leading an agitation for the conduct of local government election, wonders shall never end.

I must confess that Basil Ejidike is dancing naked on a market square and that is a proof that he is mentally deranged and truly in need of psychiatric treatment.

Anambra APC does not have the moral justification to condemn Governor Obiano for implementing the recommendation of Anambra state traditional rulers Council by suspending the 12 monarchs that flouted the traditional rulers protocol of informing the State government before travelling out of their communities for security reasons.

 

My reason for saying this is that we all are aware of how an APC led government in Kano disgraced Emir Sanusi, a First Class monarch, out of office.

 

They even banished him from the State and as they were removing him,they installed another Emir that same day in a draconian style.

When Ganduje did what he did, Anambra APC maintained sealed lips, they did not condemn him and what it shows is that they are hypocrites that must be ignored.

 

I will continue saying that Governor Obiano was too lenient in handling the issue of the misconduct of the renegades traditional rulers.

 

If it’s in Rivers state, I can assure you that the renegades monarchs will remain in Abuja and cannot come back to Rivers State, not even Rotimi Amaechi can bring them back.

 

Why the likes of Basil Ejidike are opening their dirty mouth wide to say nonsense on the issue of the monarchs suspension is because of the fact that Governor Obiano is a peace loving man.

Reasonable minds are in support of Governor Obiano’s administration suspension of the renegades monarchs that desecrated igbo’s traditional institution.

 

As for EFCC probe of Local government funds, I can confidently tell you that His Excellency Chief Dr Willie Obiano, my political idol, is not afraid of EFCC probe because he does not have any skeleton in his cupboard.

 

As a matter of fact from the inception of his 2nd term in office, Governor Obiano brought EFCC closer to his government by holding an anti corruption seminar for all his appointees and the former EFCC chairman attended the seminar to educate the appointees on the dangers of corruption and the need for them to avoid corrupt practices.

 

That thing Governor Obiano did can be likened to telling EFCC to beam their search light on his administration knowing that he has no skeleton in his cupboard.

My political idol cannot be frightened with Basil Ejidike and other disgruntled opposition elements call on EFCC for probe of Local government funds in the State.

 

Another thing I will not fail to add is that APC is not in existence in Anambra State.

I remember Tony Nwoye , APC governorship candidate for the 2017 governorship election, telling the Vice President that APC is not in existence in the State and he made that assertion in front of Basil Ejidike and other APC leaders.

 

When he said that, all of them concurred with him.

 

So what it means is that Basil Ejidike that is the Chairman of a party that is not in existence in Anambra State is only making a notice me noise and should be ignored by sane minds.

 

Daalu nu.
