Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state has been known for his carelessness, recklessness, manipulations, wickedness and the I don’t care attitude which he has always been exhibiting towards the people of Ebonyi state because he wants to have the good things of life all by himself and few of his associates. Instead of his few associates telling him the truth so that he could change his terrible ways of ruling, no they would prefer to keep quiet which is wrong. Someone like the first executive governor of Ebonyi state, Dr. Sam Egwu who supposed to advise David Umahi is now one of his favourite and trusted friend which is so disappointing, perhaps he is supporting David Umahi because of the governor’s (David Umahi) intention to run for the post of vice president in 2019 which Ali Modu Sheriff allegedly promised him if he (Ali Modu Sheriff) becomes the president of Nigeria. What a deceit and Ali Modu Sheriff allegedly promised the same post to other five governors individually in various states of the country (Nigeria). Now lots of people in Ebonyi state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party may be counting on David Umahi based on the fake promise which means that if he becomes the vice president of Nigeria as alleged, everyone who supports him would not be left out. All these would show everyone in Ebonyi state and in Nigeria as a whole the type of leaders Peoples Democratic Party (P.D.P) is trying to present to the Nigerian public come 2019. Please Nigerians should watch out for those evil men, they are bad news and have no good intention for the Nigerian people. These are human beings with questionable characters, we however believe that all these would not be possible for governor David Umahi and his associates no matter his manipulations.
Again in governor David Umahi’s bid to have his ways, in the recently held P.D.P convention to select executives both at the local, state and zonal level, he manipulated the system and gave all the key positions to his family members and other loyal friends because he is the Secretary of PDP convention committee so that his plans for 2019 election will be perfected. His brother (Maxwell Umahi) is now the state deputy chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (P.D.P), Augustine Umahi was declared PDP zonal chairman (South East) against people’s wish. Again one of David Umahi boys from Ebonyi local government area was declared Ebonyi state PDP chairman. This means that he (governor David Umahi) has successfully positioned these men to suit his purpose which is very wrong. Normally every election should be free and fair, now in this situation how can the state move forward when individuals without knowledge are in-charge of affairs of the state? All these terrible manipulations were created by governor David Umahi based on our (Viewers corner) findings, even Mr Ali Odefa whom David Umahi used during the last election as one of his thugs came out as a candidate to vie for the P.D.P zonal chairmanship which David Umahi never wanted him to contest because he had reserved the position for his brother, Mr Augustine Umahi. Though Mr Ali Odefa won the election because he had the support of most prominent PDP members at the zone but David Umahi manipulated the election and gave the post to his brother, Augustine. Viewers Corner’s correspondent also gathered that immediately the election result was announced which Mr Ali Odefa won, the governor’s thugs descended on the man and got him beaten. One interesting aspect is that this man (Ali Odefa) during the 2015 election that brought David Umahi to power, he was also one of his thugs so this is karma and he deserved the beaten he got because he did that in the past when he was working for David Umahi as a thug. Again, Augustine Umahi who is the brother to David Umahi is the one handling almost every contract in Ebonyi state as directed by Governor David Umahi so that all the proceeds would go to the family, this is wickedness. Sincerely we (Viewers corner) believe that a day would come when David Umahi may be called upon to give an account of how the state funds were used.
Another terrible aspect we (Viewers corner) noted which we condemned strongly is this, David Umahi has asked petty traders in Ebonyi state as part of his terrible tax system to be paying 14 thousand Naira every year to the state government, is this fair? These are poor traders who are selling vegetables and other little stuffs to see if they could raise some little money to feed themselves and their families, this is not right at all and people who are supposed to advise governor David Umahi are so scared to tell him the truth. However one thing we know for sure is that when natural and God’s law will come, no evil man will stand the heat. David Umahi could be hurting the people of the state to his satisfaction by using different methods to do so but when the time comes to account for your wrongful activities, we (Viewers corner) would remind you of all your terrible atrocities towards the people of Ebonyi state. Even the wealthy Eastern men mostly from Anambra state who sponsored governor Umahi during the governorship election of 2015 that brought him to power, he is allegedly having problems with them because he couldn’t keep the agreement they had with him. Honestly in life, no one would ever bite the fingers that fed him or her but if you do, at the end you would get the payback. This is the law of nature and we have advised David Umahi in the past concerning this important issue but he is a man who does not listen to people’s advice. However we are watching and waiting to see how everything plays out, the only thing that would help David Umahi is to change his terrible ways of doing things towards people in his state because he is hurting them badly.
We also gathered that Governor Umahi’s late mother (Mrs Margret Umahi) has been canonized a saint by her son, David Umahi. She was named after a street in Abakaliki (state capital of Ebonyi state) as saint Margret Umahi street, funny. You (David Umahi) single handedly made your mother a saint? Everyone should love his/her mother nicely but always remember that they are lots of implications as Christians when we do the unthinkable. This is food for thought.
