Democracy is a beautiful thing, meaning that it is the government of the people and any leader elected to office should try his or her best to fulfill promises made to the people who voted for him or her to lead them but if the elected leader decides to treat the people with deceits and hardship, then such leader shall end up becoming a one tenure leader just like we are about to see in Ebonyi state. Governor David Umahi manipulated the people of Ebonyi state through various means to become the governor of the state and immediately he was sworn into office, all the promises he made to the people were thrown into the trash box. He (governor David Umahi) started working for his pocket and also for those few corrupt individuals who are close to him in the state. Now most of the billions of Naira (monthly allocations from federal government, internally generated revenue, loans, bailout fund, Paris loan refund etc) he received so far to take care of the people of Ebonyi state were allegedly taken to a private pocket in the quest to enrich himself. This is a man who said in the past that he will never steal any money belonging to the people of Ebonyi state but what everyone in Ebonyi state is seeing now is different from his initial promises which is bad. He introduced all sorts of taxes in the state which people are paying out of hardship. How possible can it be for such a governor to win the people’s votes? Governor David Umahi wants to contest for the next governorship election come 2019 which majority of people in Ebonyi state vowed never to vote for him anymore based on our (Viewers Corner News team) findings but another surprising thing here is that at the recent meeting held on the 2nd of January 2018 in Ebonyi state with the founding fathers, governor David Umahi allegedly said that he is WAR himself and shall carry war to whoever that would stand on his way because he will surely be re-elected to office. Now Viewers Corner News team is reminding governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state and his men of war that the only best way to win the people’s votes is by fulfilling your campaign promises made to them before becoming the governor of Ebonyi state. If you had worked nicely for the people of Ebonyi state, your re-election to office shall sell through without a second thought but right now almost everyone in the state wants governor David Umahi out of office come 2019 because the hardship he subjected the people to can no longer be tolerated. Another issue here is that the people of Ebonyi state who governor David Umahi subjected to hardship were told to contribute different sorts of food items for him which they did and later governor David Umahi allegedly sent those food items as gifts to people outside the state and those he sent the gifts to may not need them. Sincerely this is like a broad day robbery. These are people (Ebonyi state people) who can barely feed well, yet governor David Umahi is taxing them to bring those food items to him which is bad. It was also alleged that some bags of rice loaded in trucks were sent to the daughter of president Buhari and a prominent political godfather in Anambra state by governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state as Christmas gifts while in Ebonyi state, hunger and poverty is the order of the day. Now hear Viewers Corner News advice on this issue; It is the duty of governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state to make sure that the people of his state are comfortable by providing all the necessary facilities they need using the federal government allocations and internally generated revenues to achieve that before taxing the poor people for donations out of the little they manage to earn. If you as a governor wants to do any gift to anyone, let it be from your pocket and not taxing the poor people to feed the rich. Such method is a sin and completely unacceptable in the sight of God Almighty. Again at the meeting on January 2, 2018, governor David Umahi allegedly boasted that with the money he has made, no one would ever stand on his way. Also it was alleged that he has started bribing various communities in Ebonyi state so that they could endorse and vote for him come 2019. This money he is carelessly and recklessly spending was part of what he may have received from the federal government of Nigeria and also from other international donors to take care of the people of Ebonyi state so that they could get a better life which governor David Umahi never give to them and now he is believing that buying votes from voters shall guaranty his re-election to power come 2019. Such thoughts can never be possible anymore because the people of Ebonyi state are wiser now and know exactly what they want. Somehow the money governor David Umahi allegedly boasted that he has made came from corrupt enrichment because in 2015 based on our findings, he borrowed money to finance his governorship election but now he is a billionaire living on people’s money. With this alone, the cry of the people of Ebonyi state who governor David Umahi subjected to hardship shall never let him win a second term no matter how much money he is boosting of having at the moment and as he is planning for WAR during 2019 governorship election in Ebonyi state, God Almighty is also planning a better way so that the people of Ebonyi state shall cry no more. Our (Viewers Corner News team) take on governor David Umahi’s do or die re-election bid is this; Just remember that the money you claimed to have made is not your money and such wealth can never make you win a second tenure. The former president of Nigeria (Dr Goodluck Jonathan) tried such method in the past but he could not win a second tenure because he was never a good president and now governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state has already started using such method, believe it or not the end result is defeat. If you had worked well as the governor of Ebonyi state, by now majority would consider voting for you to continue but you failed those who trusted you so much and that is the reason you shall be a one tenure governor. It is just a question of time, the people of Ebonyi state have already decided.
