Obiano is the best Governor for Anambra state but ...................Says Mazi Odera

This piece is so heart touching that I could not resist bringing it forward to you.
FRANK TALK WITH THE GOV OBIANO ON TUESDAY BORN AGAIN REPORT CARD by MAZI ODERA

Sir ,I greet you once again on this great day called Tuesday and I bring you my usual Report Card ,but nke tata di iche,it is HARD TALK ,a talk that comes from the heart and meant to be frank without Euphemistic romance or flavor ,after all my old man will say “okwu ana aso anya adiro ebi gboo”[issues we treat with so much reservation or decorum ,always last for a long time] . Myself will say Ebe nwata na ebe akwa atu aka,nne ya anoro ya ,malu na Nnaya no ya ma obu na Ndi enyi ya no ya [Where a crying child is pointing to ,there must be presence of the parents or friends in that direction]

Sir,I am about to examine some of the bigger blunders you,ve committed ,especially Political blunders ,I am concerned because I invested my time ,my will ,my money ,my brain ,my sleep to contribute my quota during the campaign to make you the Governor ,then all this grand IKWURIGBAS that dance on social media now chanting “WILLIE IS WALKING” they did not believe in you nor do they stake anything to make you during that period when marketing you became a task that looks like IGBA AKA RI OJI .

Sir ,Now that you are the Governor ,people came out from the wood work to make sure they sing the kind of sycophantic music they think you love ,so they will get some of the state funds available .They are not doing you any favor or doing it to protect your interest talkless of your political future ,what they have paramount is to sow complete seed of discord maka na ofioba afioba obara onye aghugho [when the place is rowdy ,a cunning and dubious man will benefit].

Sir,I have heard when you said that it was SIR VICTOR UMEH that made you the Governor and not Peter Obi ,I do not know how diabolic the charm they used to control minds work but what I am sure off is that setting the record straight may help to bring your attention back to the real situation ..

[1]  Sir ,lets agree with what GRAPE VINE said about the agreement you had with Victor Umeh long before Gov Obi made the come TAKE call to you . We all know that Gov Obi promised ANAMBRA NORTH that it is a must  they will provide the person that will take over from him as the Governor ,we all know that he presented 2 candidates who are on ground ,tested and trusted but owing to Umeh,s selfish desire ,he kept on rejecting all the candidates and until he smartly suggested you, and owing to time limit with INEC on submission of APGA candidate for APGA not to go into conflict with INEC ,OKWUTE swallowed the plot without an iota of idea what went behind the scene   ,,,fast forward

[2] When Gov Obi called you and bring you back to Nigeria ,who took over all your expenditure ?,where do we take off from and where do we converge at the end of the day ,who provided those luxury, was it VICTOR UMEH or PETER OBI ?

[3] During Campaign who sponsored your campaign ? who made the selling act to people ? was it Victor Umeh or Peter Obi ?

[4] Who did the People voted for ? I will answer that because some of the Bishops will tell you or rather the Bishop of AMICHI ANGLICAN COMMUNION told you face to face that they all voted for GOV OBI as his  third Term and he gave it to you ?.The people Voted for Okwute because he performed magic and because he said you will carry on from where he stopped ,people believed him .So have it in mind that what you are enjoying is Peter Obi,s third term and mandate ,,moving on ,,

[5] Let me rephrase you during the campaign ,where ever we went for campaign ,you have never mentioned VICTOR UMEH in any words ,you did not market your self ,you did not make any effort ,in your own words ,your campaign speech is always “NDI BE ANYI PETER OBI/GOVERNOR anyi ,oruru Olu ka oruro olu ?” the People will chorus “oruru oru” then you will add “ife nile afu oruru ,anyi ga aru ya tinye jara,,,,then you finish by singing- EBE KA UNU SI APUGA ,EBE KA UNU SI APUGA ,AGAGHIM ARAPU APUGA JEE NA EBE OZO GA BIRI,APUGA NA ADI NDU ”.

Meaning that your campaign was 100% on the shoulder of Gov Obi…proceeding

[6] Had Governor Obi asked you to retain any of his appointee or had tried to give you list of people to employ ,then I can say you are justified to be angry but the PLAIN truth is that even he did that [thank God he did not] you should,ve respectfully done that at least for  first 3 years ,then you can liberate self or renegotiate ,but hence he did not ask for anything not even a penny ,I see no reason why you should,ve declared war on him. I will not believe it is a ploy not to pay him what he spent on your campaign ,because onye ugwo nu cha ogu ,okwuo ugwo oji we naba be ya[when a debtor finish fighting ,he must still pay his debt before going home]

MY GOVERNOR ,DO YOU THINK PETER OBI WANTS TO FIGHT YOU ?IF HE DOES ,I AM SURE HE WOULD,VE MADE A PUBLIC DECLARATION OF HIS MIGRATION INTO PDP AND THE TRUTH IS THAT HE WILL MOVE OVER 70% OF APGA MEMBERS and he will divide those royal to you by half and take them away with him ,but he avoided all that ,meaning he knew he is on a mission to rescue and not to scatter .

My old man will say na onye bu onye uzo sibe ite ,na aka ya enwe mkpomkpo ite na mkpomkpo eju [He that started life before another has more scars of life and vast experience] ,this man would,ve shown you the Rope ,he would,ve taught you the way to handle all the Federal ministries ,He would,ve led you to the Presidency and you would,ve gained a powerful inroad the same way he did and you would,ve become a force to reckon with in Governance ,but hence your advisers prefer you start a war with your POLITICAL CHI ,It made me to remember what PERICOMA said “Nwata buru nmanwu uzo nya na oso,nmanwu buru ya uzo nkwukwu ezua ya aru” [when a child walks ahead of a masquerade ,the child will be trotting ahead in fear and if the masquerade is ahead ,the child will be sweating profusely for fear of how to get ahead of the nmanwu].

Sir, as of today in Nigeria ,that soft speaking man called PETER OBI is a POWER BROKER and POLITICAL TERMINAL , in the range of WHAT OBJ is to the WEST before ,what IBB is to the NORTH and what Tony Aneni is to the mid west ,so is PETER OBI TO SOUTH EAST .He speaks and his words became planted Iroko ,my old man will say “IJU OGWUGWU INURU UDO”

 As we all know ,Peter Obi is not the Type that will make you rich nor give you head spinning gift but yet he has DIE HARD DISCIPLES even in the camp of oppositions ,you should ask why ? ,that man is a LEGEND that comes once in every 500 years ,yes everybody tries to hate him because onaghi eri eri ,but you can,t fault him or his ways . The person that should,ve benefitted most from him is you but from all indication ,it seems it is a mirage now ,unless you do what is essential and forget PRIDE AND ARROGANCE ,go back to Genesis ebe ife nile siri bido ,only then can I tell you that you will enjoy the TOP . 

MY GOV,my old man in his idiomatic expression will say “okuko no na NGIGE na agba egwu,NGIGE no na egwu” [A fowl that perched on the cloth liner is dancing and the rope itself is dancing as well] ,this Surudege dance ,this political tussle ,this iticha nku [fluttering of feahers] will do the state no good.

It is obvious that Peter Obi left APGA for  HIGHER calling but which demands ka anyi gwa onwe anyi eziokwu ,was it not after the meeting between SIR VICTOR UMEH,YOU HIS EXCELLENCY and FMR GOV OBI with selected Bishops of the state ,where from beginning of the meeting a particular provocation was plotted and executed to get somebody very  angry and over react but owing to his natured of bottling up issues ,he was restrained by self and because that did not work ,the meeting that was suppose to usher in peace did not bring anything ,but the MESSAGE or what ndi ocha will call COMMUNIQUE of the meeting where derived from when the BISHOP ASKED YOU AND VICTOR UMEH ,what do you want to make peace return to the state and APGA ? which both of you retorted and I quote “PETER SHOULD LEAVE APGA FOR US” ,well ,that was the axe that broke the camels back, because 3 days after that meeting ,a delegation ,sorry the most powerful delegation of who is who in PDP were sent from HIGH to come and placate the same PETER and the rest is History for he went to where he was respected and welcomed as a PLUS.MOVING ON….

SINCE this battle of wits started ,can I kindly try and walk us through the chronicles of episode ?

[1]PDP celebrated his moving into the party because they knew what they won ,what did they get or see from that man ?

A MAN that is focused and poised ,who single handedly reduced political hooliganism which weaved bed and lived in the state ,he made them all go away without firing a single shot.

He met a state that was devastated by godfatherism ,corruption ,oligarchy and never do well .H e made them disappear .

He met a complete hostile ,sorry I mean AGGRESSIVE house of assembly made up of jackals that understand politics as duties of ndi EKPERIMA and they indeed carried it out with passion ,our state was a cursed state ,unloved ,ungoverned ,unconnected through Roads ,but this Gentleman with only 2 pairs of shoes [I am sure that during his school days that he wore only CORTINA or BATA shoe ,so that he won,t change it through out his days in school] ,this man restored the glory ,sorry there was never a time we had glory talkless of being restored ,rather he gave us the GLORY and our state became NUMBER ONE in every good thing .The state with the best ROAD NETWORK ,the state that always come first in NECO,JAMB,GCE,WAEC and everything that concerned academics .Our state became number one on MDG list [by the way I remember that your government is not MDG FRIENDLY and as I speak MDG is in Coma in the state but I digress] .

For the first time in history of our state ,our Governor was in good term with the President ,check every other Governor before him ,they were in enmity with the Presidency .This same nwunye di gi was the one that broke that curse and we the state reaped the dividend .He reconciled all the wars in the state ,he made peace reign supreme in our state . He is a pace and peace setter and that was what drove PDP to go after him as if they were hunting for a Jewel and they caught him when we rejected him ,then fast forward ,,

He rejected Ministerial appointment when they offered it to him with a clause that membership of PDP comes with it ,he said HELL no . When we drove him out and into PDP ,he became a LEGEND in PDP ,the Chairman of the Party cannot go to any place without him ,the President cannot do anything without rubbing mind with him.

Having established the above ,now let me come back to the issue at hand ,this same Peter has a MAGIC wand and what you my Governor need is a MAGIC WAND in a hand of a good Magician to help and navigate you away from the stormy political waters you are riding now.

The truth is that those people around you has so many monetary interest to protect ,that is what they were projecting in disguise ,but what you need is somebody who needs nothing ,who wants nothing and who is not scared to turn the apple cart for the fear that his bread will not be buttered.

I read from one of the RATS within your Government where they said that you employed BEN OBI MBUZE AGULU to organize irritants that will throw stone at PETER OBI in ANAMBRA STATE ,where he made you a KING .Sir ,whosoever that gave you that idea must be a retard ,let me quickly advise you that PETER OBI is not vying for anything ,APGA boys are less in number than PDP boys ,IF YOU invite violence into your own state ,just imagine how it will be when PDP YOUTHS decides to intervene and they came in through many ways into the state from other PDP STATES  to help and return the stones to you ..

IF YOU move on the street ,you will see stones raining ,if you move out of state ,you walk into a CONVOY of stones ,if you stay in your house you will hear music but not from sound system but from stones raining in the state and who do you think will be the loser ? I will tell you, the FEDS may decide to intervene and what they will do is to send SOLDIERS and POLICE that are directly under the command of the Feds and also STATE OF EMERGENCY may become an option ,meaning for the first time in our state that a Governor that is less than one year in office brought in STATE OF EMERGNECY into our state and welu zi aka gi kpoo result.

So what is this MAN that call self MAZI ODERA suggesting ? that I AKPOKUE DIKE will fold my hands and so nothing ? Well Mazi is a man that is honest to the core and he does not know how to use sweet words to placate bad issues,so I will tell you what I want you to do …..

YOUR STATUS is now higher than what you think as a person, but what is best for the state,your status is no longer limited to FIDELITY bank, now it covers a state where we have more than 5 chairmen of Banks and where we have BILLIONAIRES in all currencies ,Your status now is higher than AKPOKUE DIKE AGULERI meaning ,what you will do is what will make the state safe and sound and not what will make you happy. On this case ,let me tell you what OKWUTE will do ,same thing he did when he was the Governor ,he visit anybody that he thinks will bring him problems, he will be at your house before you wake up and before you hit the bed ,he will humbly and submissively make you a wreck by his constant down to earth visit  that you will have no option than to agree with whatever he proposed .

My Excellency Sir, Some of your wards are plotting and hatching ,they are conspiring a muted move to drag the state back to HARAKIRI ,where there will be wanton destruction of properties and which may metamorphose into blood letting .There is a move by a Radical Lawyer “SMALL” and it includes activating thugs through a Notorious man from Anam ,the aim of the group is to use the thugs to intimidate the enemies of the Government or political oppositions . What they do not know is that onye okwu amaro ife onye osisa ga asa ya [a complainant do not know the answer he will get from the accuse] ,such move may bring a reprisal and Sir ,believe me you were,nt around in 2003 up to 2005 when it was a war of atrocities between a DOGFATHER AND DOGSON and we can tell you that the state suffered a great loss in all angle.

Sir tell them that as they crave to gather ANT INFESTED FIRE WOOD ,that many Lizards will converge within the compound ,both the invited ones and passer by one.

Pericoma of Izuogu will say ,if you want to stop a Fight better stop the provocative words that will result into that fight.

Sir, let me tell you an honest truth again ,you need professionals with good sense to help and advise you on how to talk in public and in private and you must listen to them and act as advised ,I mean no disrespect but the office you are holding now is a political office where Good Morning with THREE OOO must be interpreted to mean  something bad, but to you ,you still talk as AKPOKUE DIKE ,sir NO ,you are the Governor now and as the Governor ,your Ideas may be great but that is the reason you have advisers and educated ones at that ,some of the great ideas in your head my be great in personal matters but on a political stand point it becomes apparition .Take for instance ,buying TATA BUSES for transportation in the state may sound good to you but advisers would,ve made you to start with INNOSON and they would,ve asked for PARKS or GARRAGES for the Bus and they would,ve advised on who to manage them including that elusive TAXIS that has gone with the wind.

Sir ,please always try and run your ideas through your advisers ,second opinion matters a lot. It is not a must that you will take the advise but you will mull over them ,compare and contrast and finally you choose a better option.

Taking advise from somebody with vested interest like OHAMADIKE is tainted with aggrandizement and can never be to your benefit.

Sir,I will not forget to remind you that you do not take enmity into politics because many of this folks you dish today maybe your help next time and as a politician your path must always cross with even those you despise .

Currently there is a Woman politician you are not showing kindness to all ,but I will be frank with you ,that woman is much more connected than some of the things you call friends and candid speaking she is more of an ASSET than liability .That is the kind of Politician that you will have on your side and when the chips are down ,she will stand by you and walk the waters infested with Crocodile .She is running against your anointed candidate but in politics ,nothing absolutely nothing is casted in concrete and I want you to think about it.

Sir, I am a friend even though you do not appreciate it but your friends are not those IDIOTS that dance around and shout AKPOKUE DIKE and sing WILLIE IS WALKING ,friends are those who will tell you what they know that is right and wrong and even if they know you will not like to hear it .That way they are making you a better person.

Sir,I humbly plead that you weed away some of this people that added no value to your Government ,before you or others mis-understood me ,I DO NOT SEEK EMPLOYMENT nor will I accept one from you.i do not want any monetary reward either but if you pay me all the money I spent on your campaign ,I will be thankful because it is a debt which you are suppose to pay off ,but on a good note ,I do not seek nor will I accept any appointment with your Government ,so lets perish the thought that I am lobbying or placating you for a job .I am only doing what I do best ,trying hard to have a good home that we all can be proud of.

Sincerely yours in the service
