Gov Wike
Even though it’s not in our character both as a political
party and patriotic Nigerians to join issues with anybody on frivolous matters
especially those anchored by mediocres and idlers, it’s becoming increasingly
expedient to respond to certain criticisms by the All Progressives Congress,
APC so that the impressionable members of the public are not further
misinformed and intellectually abused by this visionless lot that call
themselves a political party.
It’s against this backdrop that we make bold to make a
passing comment on the rather ridiculous statement on the sure National Convention of our dear party billed to hold
here in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital on Wednesday, August 17, 2016.
Ordinarily, there would not have been any need to react to
such a hollow talk from a high sounding empty drum but for the dose of
undeserved insults on the leader of the PDP, and executive governor of the
State, Chief Barr Nyesom Wike, a man that qualifies to be deified if he were a
chieftain of the APC, surpassing all its members put together in terms of
ideas, leadership qualities, performance and vision.
More shocking is the APC’s shameful case of a kettle calling
pot black.
It’s no more news that the
only phenomenon that sustains the masses of Nigerians, hope, has been
vigorously killed by the APC controlled federal government, as our national
economy that a few years ago was the envy of many a nation has completely collapsed
beyond resuscitation due to the
visionlessness, cacophony of lies, unco-ordinated policies of the APC and a
tintinnabulation of political jingoism
through witch-hunt, selective war against corruption that is anchored on
precarious feet of falsehood and vendetta etc.
Notwithstanding the crying and lamentations of the hopeless
dying masses of Nigerians entangled in the excruciating pains of APC chain
agenda, the like of Chris Fynebone, APC’s surrogate and megaphone, clad with a
garb of State publicity secretary have continued to pretend not to know or feel
the pangs of poverty foisted on the nation by his paymasters.
What matters to him and his benefactors is simply the
National Convention of the PDP graciously holding in Port Harcourt which the APC
high command in Abuja using the coercive instruments of power want to thwart
but have continued to falter at every step taken.
Their only concern is that the National Convention holding in
Port Harcourt has punctured their baseless propaganda of insecurity in the
State just to discredit the unequalled efforts of the God-sent Executive
Governor of the State, Chief Barr Nyesom Wike who has roundly demonstrated an
unstoppable interest in restoring sanity to the State by putting to an end the
regime of organized crime aimed at mortgaging the State by a few
inconsequential political neophytes insisting on the ‘old order’.
There is no gainsaying the fact that the PDP National
Convention holding in the Garden City of Port Harcourt besides debunking the
many lies of the APC about the State, will further bring the tourism potentials
that abound across the State to the front burner of social discourse with the
side attraction of opening up the State to potential investors desirous of
taking advantage of the rich oil and gas resources to invest in the State.
This is simple economic arithmetic that only the APC lacks
the knowledge to understand, no wonder the prices of petroleum products,
agricultural produce, consumer products, building materials and everything with
no exception have sky-rocked to the high heavens so much so that even the APC
supporters across the country are causing the day the reins of power and
leadership of this once great nation unfortunately slipped into the hands of
‘one chance’, sorry, chain agent called APC government.
Thank God nobody is left out from the strangulation.
On our own part, we will continue to do that which we were
mandated by the majority of our people to do; to provide for their needs,
protect their lives and property, promote their welfare at all times and
establish worthy democratic ethos that will enthrone effective governance that
will outlive this regime and be sustained as an enduring legacy notwithstanding
the gossips of an ungodly and unappreciative bunch, the APC.
Empty vessels are known to make the loudest noise.
