CONCERN CITIZEN OF OGU WRITES WAKIRIKE POLITICIANS.

LETTER TO WAKIRIKE POLITICIANS.

(Agbani G Alapakabia)

Last year, Rivers State was at a cross road not certain which way to go after the 2015 general election in the state, there was several litigations in the state which 22, house of assembly 12, reps and 3 senators lost their case in the court that calls for a rerun, there was a massive defections from PDP to APC for the fear of unknown until January, 27^th 2016 when our Amiable Governor Ezemwo Wike Won the case in the supreme court. Once again congratulations sir and I heartily congratulate you for turning Rivers State into a construction site and for your proactive nature, Rivers State have confident in your governance; our arms are open to partners with you in delivering the dividends of democracy  at any time.

        Once again Wakirike is at a cross road unsure which way to go, it is absolutely imperative that the Wakirike politicians work unanimously with the task of ensuring better Wakirike especially  now that the March 19^th  2016 rerun election is just at the corner. The gesture is necessary for it is quite impossible for any man to fight desperately and tirelessly for an unknown cause, let Wakirike politicians work together for the importance of good governance as true democrat. I therefore urge Wakirike politicians to shun any act capable of causing violence and disunity in Wakirike, note that the election will come and go, but Wakirike will continue to exist. Let me remind all Wakirike politicians that Wakirike does not belong to any one and cannot be considered anybody personal estate.

Currently the political heat-up in the state is becoming unbecoming, let’s look at the Orashi, Kalabari region in Rivers West senatorial district, Ogoni is not left out in Rivers South East for the political or cult killing on-going in these region, her Wakirike saying we should imbibe such act hell no, after studying the scenario of Wakirike politics back 1999-2007 dark  era where Wakirike played politics with bitterness, PDP and APP battle for supremacy in Okrika and Ogu/Bolo L.G.A which precious life’s and properties where destroyed it was a right mare for Wakirike and environs. The Wakirike region was labeled as the worst region in Rivers State in terms of politics, we cannot throw away the baby with the bad water, and therefore Wakirike politicians should be a worthy ambassador.

Currently the wakirike region is fast developing especially my beloved town Ogu which is fast becoming a center of excellence in Wakirike, but if I say in Wakirike region alone is understatement but in Rivers State as whole it is too beautiful to be destroyed, therefore it is completely out of place to destroy our beloved land for the sake of March 19^th 2016 rerun election.

        I advise all wakirike politicians seeking for political office to stay clear from political sycophant, jobbers, horse traders and miscreant for they are political apparatchik that stands in the political corridor that cause mayhem. I therefore call Wakirike political seekers and there foot – match to have expectations which border on peace.

        Secondly, I urge all Wakirike youths to stay clear from being used by politicians as tools to cause mayhem in Wakirike such as snatching of ballot box, electoral manipulations and other nefarious activities to electoral violence. The scenario of Rivers State politics is becoming bloody and fearful; we pray in apex basis it will bring a political permutation.

        In conclusion I humbly urge all Wakirike extraction at home and Diaspora for a total transformation that will make Wakirike a source of pride in Rivers State, Nigeria and the World at large.
