The opposition is at war with the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP). The PDP is at war with itself. The general political atmosphere is extremely charged. And when the lightning strikes, it will, more likely than not, consume the beleaguered republic. Sadly, however, some members of the National Working Committee of the PDP have turned themselves into aggressive cancerous cells, devouring the soul of the party. The recklessness at Wadata Plaza has reached the point of defying clear and unambiguous presidential directives. And unless measures that are equally aggressive are taken immediately, the deplorable actions of these men whose egos are now bloated by humungous cash from highly questionable sources will lead directly to a catastrophic failure at the polls. Ebonyi people are being bullied by renegade elements at the PDP headquarters which have been recruited into the mercenary gang that has nothing but exploitative and corrupt designs on the young and poor state. These renegade elements have forged results of congresses, flouted court orders, conducted a sham primary election in a hotel lobby in direct and flagrant disregard of presidential directive, all in a bid to foist their lackeys on Ebonyi people. Why? Because they think they can get away with it. But they are in for a surprise. Governor Martin Elechi has been inflexible and uncompromising in his support for President Jonathan. Among those hell bent on destroying PDP in Ebonyi State are the most virulent detractors of the President, both in the past and at the moment. The thin veil of loyalty and sycophancy with which they now wrap themselves are too transparent to fool those who have a complete understanding of the nonsense going on right now. It is now blatantly clear that there are binary political forces in Ebonyi, each determined to take charge of the soul of the state. On the one hand are the forces ranged behind the incumbent Governor, comprising of the masses of the grassroots, traditional rulers, elders, party apparatchik and professional groups. This group is determined to defend the patrimony of Ebonyi State and secure its treasury, its future and its cohesive existence in peace and unity. On the other hand is a group led by elements in powerful federal positions of authority and financed by a business mogul. This group is determined, like vultures, to strip Ebonyi to its bones, create mayhem and anarchy. They will be resisted to the bitter end and their diabolical machinations will be crushed by the people and not party...(okwa aka Eji Ede good, ka Eji ede bad) God bless us.
