EBONYI STATE POLITICS AND OHAUKWU MEDIA BROUHAHA 🙌👀.
Ebonyi State is experiencing exponential growth in many areas of the state, yet we're still lagging behind in several important sectors. As we are clamouring for the government to engage in meaningful reform projects that will boost economic development in the state, we equally advocate for projects that will bring employment opportunities for the people, maybe then their population in the state will increase. Currently, the state's biggest employment market is politics. This singular act has made many people lazy, nonproductive, and vulnerable and prone to poor choices, decisions, and primitive governance.
Ebonyi is playing antagonistic politics where nobody in public office wants to be criticized or held accountable for their actions. Good governance emanates from criticism, not from silencing people or opposition. This is part of the reasons why Nigeria is underperforming in many key areas that would make life easier for the masses. As much as we acknowledge the harmful effects of corruption, tribalism, nepotism, and religious politics, we cannot completely rule out or ignore the existence of internal neoliberalism in our political system. Politics is played in a very dangerous way in Nigeria, where every region is dragging others down because they don’t truly want a total overhaul of the existing primitive political structure that has kept us from progressing.
I would encourage my dear state to do better by not engaging in such nonsensical political practices. Propaganda is part of politics, but entertaining your people with quality projects and good services will position you positively before the people. Ohaukwu Local Government is a unique and important local government in Ebonyi State with great potential to reform the state's economy and improve lives in the state through their inputs, but political will, corruption, and political intimidation and intolerance are the major factors dragging the local government backward. My people, let me tell you that criticism is part of governance, and it will make you as a leader proactive and stay alert all the time. Politics demands accountability, transparency, and transformation, and if you're going to join politics and not uphold these three qualities, then don't join politics. I don't like a career politician for anything because being a career politician can easily make one corrupt and desperate. Any desperate politician can do anything for power, and accountability is seen as a threat to their political career. Don't be intolerant when you get criticized when you're in a public office; instead, meditate deeply and find ways to improve your services to the public.
We have all seen what Ebonyi Son is capable of doing as a patriotic Ebonyian, but just as I predicted when I engaged with some people, immediately he got to Ohaukwu Local Government, the game changed. Why do we hate criticism, transparency, and accountability? Why do we have people criticizing the IZZI clan because of the activities of Ebonyi Son? Why do we believe that Ebonyi Son was trying to intimidate and bully coordinators in his state? What do you mean that he is using his brother's position to fight coordinators? This is cheap blackmail and shouldn't stand at all. What's wrong is wrong. If someone admits to carrying out a project, it should be investigated to find the truth. Nobody should start badmouthing the IZZI people for mere political gains, setting brothers against themselves because of one's political gain or interest. If Ebonyi Son has said something wrong, the accused person has the right to publicly counter the allegation with proven facts. Media mobbing of people to silence them is unethical and wrong at all levels. We pray to see a functional Ohaukwu Local Government where people live in harmony, respect each other, and build mutual understanding. Ebonyi State will be great if we support each other and everyone. We can change the state if we take up the responsibility to fight against corruption, political violence, and extremism in politics.
