I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH ANY OF MY BROTHERS IN ETCHE, AND I WONT LET ANYONE CHEAT MY PEOPLE ANYMORE.
(...Allwell Onyesoh)
Yesterday being the 1st of May 2018, during a ward meeting at the residence of Eng. Sunny Amadi, the political Octopus made it known to his people that he has no problem with any politician in Etche.
According to Chief Allwell Onyesoh,
"since 1999 we started the democratic dispensation, elective positions does not bring issues in our ward. We do our thing turn by turn here. After Okoroagu, Umuanyagu, then Okomoko. So on and so fort.
But unfortunately, one group in our party have decided that the old people should remain in power, while the other says no. Our own group is that whichever way they want it we are going to be favoured. election will decide.
Before now I believe you've been hearing about the problem going on in our party.
The problem is that one man For a very long time has decided to pose himself as an emperor over others.
He is my friend, yes I am not disputing that fact, how we became friends started from our childhood, people always say we look alike, just that am fair and he is dark in complexion.
Just that of recent I disagreed to agree with him.
He imposed Dakuku peterside to us. At first I told him that Dakuku is not very popular and Wike needs to be matched with a popular and powerful candidate like Magnus Abe, beside Wike is an Ikwerre man Magnus is Ogoni and Ogoni has four LGA, but he refused.
Instead he said the only way we can make Dakuku popular is by shouting Dakuku-dakuku... My governor my governor!
My people is that how to win election? (the crowd shouted Nooooo)
He is still my friend and am not disputing that fact.
Before the emergence of Dakuku, Magnus wanted to contest but Amaechi refused.
One thing I don't like about this my friend is that he doesn't take advice.
He feels his ideas will always be the best, that was how we loosed election in 2015 due to his selfish ideas to rule Rivers State for third term through Dakuku.
The worse thing Dakuku will do now is to resign from NIMASA.
The most painful one is that he cursed the failure of our party in Rivers State, yet he became minister, Dakuku NIMASA and his ikerre brother NPA E.D. I asked him which one for Etche people?
If you visit NPA only Amaechi's brothers occupies there, I called him and asked him why is it that whenever jobs comes up all you do is give it to your brothers secretly? What you are doing is too bad.
And I have come to notice that he has phobia for truth.
My pain is that my brothers who call themselves sons of Etche and members of CHETA ALA ETCHE MEYA NMA who are supposed to fight for your right, I mean your fellow Etche sons sees nothing wrong with that as long as he remains their leader. I want to ask, where is he leading you to? Your doom or progress? If he is afraid to support Etche Man to a vital position.
I told him that he should be grateful that he once became a governor, that the same God who made him Governor is still alive, He can still make another person governor too.
Whenever Etche Man wants to contest for a vital position he will keep saying "you know this position is capital intensive one and needs billionaires"
I asked him, my friend how much do you have in your account when we supported you to become governor? Were you even in Nigeria when we were fighting for you in court? God is the maker of kings and he is alive.
What have you ever given to Etche? Governor ikwerre, chief of staff ikweree, speaker ikwerre, senate ikwerre, minister ikwerre etc.
I don't blame you, I blame my brothers whole are always ready to sell their right for a loaf of bread.
He started suspecting that I am against him just because I keep feeding him with the bitter truth, so he announced that I have been removed from being the party caucus leader in my own LGA. I laughed and told him that you cannot come to my hose and issue me a key to a house that belongs to me, and I want to categorically tell you that I am and remain the caucus leader of Etche APC.
Go to Ubima and contend with Omehia your brother first before ordering people around in Etche.
I have no problem with any politician in Etche, as so long as Etche is concern we are and will always remain brothers.
Of a truth, if any other Etche son emerge as a senatorial candidate of APC and wins, I will go home fulfilled because Etche man is there.
Some persons said I cursed the failure of my brother Ogbonna Nwuke in my ward, but the three poling units in Umuanyagu was won by APC completely. So how did I curse it?
If you fail today, it does not mean that you wont pass tomorrow.
Buhari failed so many times before he became the president of the federal republic of Nigeria.
Magnus never asked me to support him for one day, I on my own decided to give him my full support openly and we became friends. And Amaechi said am a betrayer. I asked him what is your own definition of betrayal?
Whenever I support my choice candidate I become a betrayer, but when job comes you give it to your people alone and none to Etche people, what is that one called? Not betrayal right? Thank you.
The thirteen thousand teaching Etche people were involved was out of my struggle yet he took the credit.
When the teaching recruitment was raised, he gave it to the commissioner so that he would use the office of the commissioner to give the job to his brothers alone. I said big No to that. I knew my right as board chairman then.
I took the case to the house of assembly and the constitution was reviewed, that was how I won them and I made sure that the 23 LGA of Rivers State got equal right and access to the teaching job. That was how some Etche sons got that job.
To crown it all, make sure you are on the right side.
Time has gone when you support a man just because you feel he has power. My people only God owns power and he is the maker of kings.
I want to use this medium to officially tell you that I am contesting for the position of senator Rivers East senatorial district. Thanks for your attention and God bless you all. "
