Count Down to 2023: Which Way Obizi??
By Cynthia Igbokwe
I am amazed by what is happening with the ObiDient movement and it implies that the 2023 election won’t be premised on political parties anymore. Winnie lose, ObiDients have made a point awakening the spirits of dossile Nigerians, same in Obizi.
Obizi representative must be a personality of class, capacity and capability. It’s no longer business as usual. Justice is coming home with the appointment of an Isiagu man as chairman of Awka South local government area for the first time.
Let me observe that a lot has been playing out recently in Obizi, it is no longer a political party affair or ” Nke a bu nke any” slogan. It’s a movement of who ‘sabi’ road.
I hereby make a clarion call to every candidate vying to represent Obizi in the State House of Assembly to marshal out his or her vision and mission statement, even his or her scorecard before now, whether a public or a private person.
Some persons are biased on whose mandate to go for. They are asking if should they go for continuity with Hon Chukwuma Okoye, gunning for a second term in office, with the hope that” the devil they know is better than the angel they are not sure of” 🤔🤔
Maybe, support Josiah Ifedi of PDP in recognition of Igbo adage that says ” Ogoli nua Di na abuo omalu nke ka mma”.
While others are gunning for their brother Jerry Alocha in APC having in mind to give him a chance to prove a point which practically can be his reason for coming out for the second time, considering the saying that” Ebe nwata na atu aka, Nne m’obu Nna ya ga ano ebe afu”. Just, maybe he wants to change a narrative 🤷🤷
But for me ,in all, let’s consider a candidate that is capable, reliable, and most importantly accessible, and not a snub with little or no regards for human being except people of their class, to avoid “Nga”😃😃 four years.
If someone contesting to represent you cannot pick your call , reply your text or return the call, please be mindful because when he or she assumes office , you are on your own. I can cite examples of ego trip on the part of these contenders, ma na ka anajegodi.
I come in peace. ✌️
