EMEKA IHEDIOHA: THE UNKNOWN SAINT AND HIS SEVERAL LOOTS

 EMEKA IHEDIOHA: THE UNKNOWN SAINT AND HIS SEVERAL LOOTS

Each time Emeka Ihedioha or his administration is been talked about or mentioned especially in the scheme of events pertaining to the state, to many who are not grounded or those who has refused to detach their emotions from logic will always see him as the saint, messiah and the best so far. 

It has become so because a person of the nature of Emeka Ihedioha is witty, cunning and in fact what a politician shouldn’t be and so playing with the sensibility of Imolites is just but another show in the circus and we forgive those that has reposed so much trust in him, praying that God will continue to use us to liberate his people from falsehood.

While Emeka Ihedioha had chosen “Rebuild Imo” as his 2019 governorship campaign mantra, little did Imolites understood that it was actually a mirage and a facade to clinch the number one position in the state and use it for his personal gains- a rebuild initiative that is centered on PDP displaced politicians and some of his personal projects left unfinished.

The way and manner in which Emeka Ihedioha pursued his ambition to become the Governor in 2019 really explained the proverbial saying that “a toad doesn’t run in the day in vain, it is either the toad is after something or something is after it.” Indeed Emeka Ihedioha was after something and no wonder the irregularities that marred the election that he was erroneously declared as the winner by some agents of INEC playing out the script handed down to them.

It became obvious to us why Emeka Ihedioha refused to construct any road in the state during his administration- one of the pressing needs of Imolites as at that time but vigorously embarked on white elephant project like the construction of 27LGAs Stadia and others was because he was busy looting the state treasury to complete all his personal abandoned projects before he became the Governor.

It is on record that on assumption of Office as the Governor, Emeka Ihedioha brought back workers to the sites of his abandoned projects littered all over the state and in his Mbutu hometown. It extended to looting of the state treasury to buy bulletproof cars and houses as well as other things he coveted during his inglorious administration.

As hard as Imo PDP is trying to canonize Emeka Ihedioha a saint, the stench of his 7 months maladministration is still everywhere, hence, a bad market for them even now and in the future. Imolites are clearly seeing the man behind the mask and never will they be deceived again.

The truth is now in the open as many are insisting that the state government should expedite actions by setting up a panel of inquiry to look into the activities of the then administration of Emeka Ihedioha which was characterized by looting, abuse of office, Executive rascality, personal cum political vendetta amongst many other things. The anti crime commission should swing into action and arrest him without further delay
