Did Chief Victor Umeh , Senatorial Candidate of APGA write this or somebody is imposing himself on him?
A FOOLISH ATTEMPT BY A GOAT TO BARK AND BITE By Chief Victor Umeh
Watching Valentine Obienyem, the psychologically harassed, thoroughly depressed, visibly
restless and ever-sweating hanger-on of Mr. Peter Obi combine the roles
of an ADC, Orderly, Messenger, Washerman, Houseboy, Shoeshiner and other sundry
and doggy odd jobs; one is often choked with pity which gives way to sadness and
repugnance, even to the point of throwing up. That is why it is with great
reluctance that one is joining issues with him. In other words, Val does not need to
be dignified with a response whenever he raves like a lunatic in Nigerian Newspapers.
He knows where he rightly belongs: the back side of mansions where eavesdropping and hearsay are the favorite pastimes. He is not privy to execute discussions and decisions. There is no way he can be in a
meeting with me, the Ohamadike 1 of Igboland, Chief Willie Obiano and Mr. Peter
Obi. He may be permitted to serve drinks and thereafter fly out of the
window.
Why Mr. Peter Obi has not called him to order is very baffling. He has
badly damaged whatever is left of Obi’s reputation and goodwill. He has alienated
Obi’s friend from him. When the going was good, I severally advised Obi to
fire him, but Obi would not listen. In his latest outing (Daily Sun, 24th November 2014) Valentine had the effrontery, the shameless boldness to stand up to me, the revered Chairman of the All Progressive
Grand Alliance (APGA). The Ogbunigwe of Nigeria. I must state immediately
that I am a Chief and that I am eminently capable and dangerously equipped to
defend myself, physically, metaphysically, spiritually, whatever. However,
I will not allow myself to do that. Ohamadike is too elevated, too
sophisticated, too polished, too dignified to descend to the level of a certain errand
boy and begin to exchange words with him. Ohamadike will not indulge Val in
such luxury. Val is just like an overfed bird, who after a hefty meal decided to
challenge his god to a wrestling contest. In the said
interview, Obienyem was asked what informed his boss, Mr. Peter Obi leaving APGA,
hear the saucy and cheeky man, among others he said: “Look at what is
happening in APGA today, one man Chief Victor Umeh is the beginning and end of the party.
The decision of my boss to leave the party was a great one. We note with
happiness that he fulfilled his promise to Ojukwu and handed over to an APGA
government. Besides the fact that he has also widened his horizon and placed him
in a vantage platform where he would serve the people of Anambra State,
Ndigbo and Nigeria from the centre as he has been doing and dreaming on
expanding”.
Rubbish. To start with, I, Chief Victor Umeh is neither the beginning
nor the end of APGA. APGA is one of the most disciplined, organized and
well-structured parties in Nigeria with my exalted self as the National Chairman. I
have no dual roles or responsibilities. My only crime is that I am very energetic,
charismatic, effulgent, accessible, courageous, and intelligent and up to
par. I leave to the billings of that office. I have never prevented anyone
from performing his duties in the party and no officer of the party has ever
complained that Chief Victor Umeh obstructed him from performing his or her
legitimate duties.
On whether Peter Obi fulfilled his promise to Ojukwu or not. This is not the forum for that,
the day Peter Obi will be taken up, this matter will be dissected, and Peter
Obi’s hypocrisy will be exposed. But suffice it to say that even the wife of the
late Ezeigbo confirmed it in one of her recent interviews that Peter Obi
vowed to Ezeigbo that nothing would ever make him leave APGA. That Peter Obi
told her (Bianca) that over his dead body would he leave APGA. So, what is
small boy Valentine talking about? And the point that Peter Obi joined P.D.P to
serve Anambra and Nigeria is complete balderdash and nonsensical nonsense.
Truth is that he was deceived. He was made to believe that as soon as he decamps,
he would be made a Minister in view of the fact that some Ministers would
resign to pursue their political aspirations. Apart from that, he imagined that the
President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan so much loves him and could possibly
position him to be his successor.
It was a matter of self-interest and parochial reasoning. Now anyone
can take a bet. Peter Obi will neither be appointed a Minister nor made to
succeed Jonathan. At best, he could be South-East Co-ordinator of TAN working
under the big-for-nothing Dr. Ifeanyi Uba. He is now politically stranded
because he never expected this backlash. Within the P.D.P. circle, he is not
trusted; the general feeling is that if he could do this to a party that labored for him for over 10 years, what else can’t he do.
For us to have a better picture of the man Valentine Obienyem is hopping and panting after, let
us take a recent view from a man who has known him for over 30 years, a Legal
Luminary and Traditional Prime-Minister of Nnewi in the person of Barr.
Ofili Nwosu, hear him: “Let nobody be deceived his (Peter Obi) defection to
P.D.P is a non-issue. He is trying to protect something. He is giving the
impression that P.D.P stakeholders came to beg him. If Peter Obi is what he paints
himself to be…. On the day of that declaration, half of APGA faithful would
have flooded that place. Look at Governor Miniko’s experience. By Peter’s
action, he has called Chief Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, Ikemba Nnewi, Dike Di
Oramma Ndigbo, Amuma n’ Egbeigwe Biafra, Odenigbo Ngwo, Ezeigbogburugburu, the
General of the People’s Army a fool. Evil that men do live after them”.
He wrote this in article titled: Peter Obi, A Soul In Bondage. (Vintage
Saturday, November 22, 2014). Back to
that impetuous young man
called Valentine, let us take a look at another of his
hogwash reasoning, hear
him: “If he cared for APGA’s growth, how would he remain
the Chairman of the
party and yet be vying for Senatorial seat?. If this is not
the highest
exemplification of greed and selfishness, I wonder what
is”? How can the small
Valentine be talking to me like that? Can puny Val now sit
down to be tutored?
In the first place, there is nowhere in the Electoral Law
where it is forbidden
that by holding a party office, you cannot contest election.
The position I am
holding is not a Government appointive position which
requires me to resign
before contesting. Even Governors, Senators and others who
are on elective
positions do not resign before they contest. Rt. Hon. Edwin
Umeezeoke was the
Chairman of ANPP while at the same time the
Vice-Presidential candidate of the
same party. Pastor Chris Okotie is the Chairman of the Fresh
Democratic Party
as well as the Presidential candidate. In 2007, Chief Felix
Modebelu from Nnewi
was the National Chairman of Liberal Party of Nigeria as
well as the Anambra
State Gubernatorial candidate, one could go on and on citing
instances. So it
has not offended any part of the Electoral Law if Chief
Victor Umeh decides to
serve out his tenure. In any
case, since when has Val
become an Electoral Umpire who decides who and on what
ground one should
contest election. Since when did goats begin to bark and
bite? What gave
Obienyem the audacity and temerity to face Ohamadike, Udu,
Ekwekekwe, Oku,
which I am based on titles given to me by communities,
including his own
community of Agulu? Val
Obienyem is not somebody I
should be crossing words with. I am one of Val’s
Benefactors, When he presented
his book on Ojukwu to the public in 2006, I gave him N100,
000. Is this how to
re-pay me? Now that he is satiated, his first instinct is to
chop off the
fingers that fed him. He should know that he cannot do that
with me as my
fingers are iron. Lastly,
let us understand that goats
neither bark nor bite, it is not in their nature. They can
only bleat. Dogs
bark and sometimes bite. When important personalities like
myself and others
are discussing germane national and international issues, a
certain Val
Obienyem should steer clear; he should not foul the
atmosphere with his odorous
fart in the hope of attracting attention. And this is a
warning to Val, any pim
from him again, I will expose him. If he thinks his bic is
hot, mine is hotter.
