The Convener of Abia Infrastructure Mandate (AIM), Chief Odo Ijere has condemned the Abia State governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ikechi Emenike, saying his ambition is dead on arrival.
According to Ijere, “Emenike’s candidacy is imperiled, doomed and refuses to fly”, and as such will be an exercise in futility.
Ijere, in statement signed by him on Thursday morning, cautioned Abians to be weary of the Ohuhu born politician.
He said: “Ikechi Emenike’s two thousand worded CV cannot fetch him acceptability and electability. Emenike’s candidacy is imperiled, doomed and refuses to fly.
“This is one bad product known and acknowledged by the masses of Abians as a dead end. After I was initially deceived by delirious optics and soundbites that created our modern day wonder and messiah that will transform our dilapidated and third world political economy to our own Dubai of Africa, I found time to do a rethink and check whether I’ve been sold a viper or just a harmless green snake. My later findings are not as encouraging as initially thought. Abia people must therefore look very well before leaping. I have myself leaped to safety with the hindsight of privileged information.
“Abia of today will not walk into another disaster called Ikechi Emenike. He’s dead on arrival. I will advise my brothers and friends still locked down in Egypt to find the courage to make a U turn since its never too late to save one’s political life. Out of ten persons I talked to concerning Ikechi Emenike at the time of my little research, nine said he’s irritable, dictatorial, stubborn, unaccomodating, unteachable, unreachable, one man show, selfish, imperial, eze onye agwalam, intolerant and uncountable more vices.
“Now I ask, what are we going to be doing with this kind of a governor?
My only comfort is that we need one more week to answer this question
Odo Ijere, Okpotemba.”
