Story,
story, story all the time...does this man actually want us to take him
seriously? He says abia elites and leaders are in support of Gov T A Orji, but
did not tell the world why all well meaning abians ostracised him and his
dubious politicking. The truth is that Mr. Ufomba has deep deficiency of
character and is so untrustworthy that even his kinsmen in Ntigha have roundly
rejected him not just in the last elections but in their various town union
activities. He should go ahead and publish all that he claims he has on the
elections.
As a bad loser, he finds it difficult to distinguish between
constructive criticism based on policies and issues and rabblerousing borne out
of bitterness and envy. Because he is out of business, he finds time to concoct
tales with the singular aim of distracting the government. Elections are not
won on the pages of newspapers but it is the people who choose their leaders.
Dejected Reagan should realise this and shut up his demented mind.
Governor
T.A. Orji is already transforming the state. Evidence to this abound.
While Reagan Ufomba cowardly abandoned Abia people
and busied himself with his many questionable activities during the 8-year
reign of Orji Uzor Kalu's despotic regime, Abia patriots fought gallantly to
reclaim their political power. The climax of this was the gallant decision of
Chief TA Orji to take the bull by the horns and liberate abians from the kalu
dynasty. One wonders where Reagan was and what he did during that dark decade?
We challenge Reagan who is now been sponsored by Orji Uzor Kalu as is clearly
shown by the numerous interviews exclusively published by Orji Kalu's
newspaper to point out any surviving road left by the former governor in aba
after ten years. He should also give us a list of five public buildings erected
by the former governor in abia state during his reign of terror.
Reagan is
nothing but a limbless political lackey looking for job after woefully loosing
out in the last elections. Having realized that 419 business is no longer
lucrative and in view of the searchlight EFCC has placed on him. He is now
relishing in the contrived title of 'opposition' even when he could not win his
own ward in a guber contest acclaimed by all and sundry to be free and fair. By
the way, even if the election was rigged as he is quick to claim, does it mean
that a whole governorship candidate lacks so much clout that he could not
protect the results in the booths in his own ward? His admission that he visits
Abia once in every eight months is instructive here. A man like that cannot
boast of grassroot support. How can this mad man claim Orji Kalu built Aba General
Hospital which was established in the 80s'? how could he ever try to wish away
the world class diagnostic centre built by Ochendo? Anyway, the real truth has
come out and as Reagan, Ikonne and Orji Kalu regroup, Abians are ever ready to
cast out these known demons with their antics.
This is a response to the interviews granted by REAGAN UFOMBA as published in the The Sun & Nation Newspapers on 8th & 9th of April 2012.
