Some Nigerian politicians that were elected to lead their people have turned out to be something else, instead of doing the right thing by using the available resources within their various states and also the monthly allocations they are getting from the federation account to create good conditions for the people that voted them to power, they turn themselves into demi-gods over night, looting almost all the money in the treasury for personal use then leaving their people in abject poverty.
This is unacceptable, anyone who gets the mandate of the people to lead them should do the job which he or she is elected to do.
One typical example of Viewers Corner’s assessment on this issue of poor governance is Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state who has vehemently refused to create better living conditions for the people of Ebonyi state. He imposed on the people of Ebonyi state all sorts of taxes, levies, fees without thinking of how the people are going to pay them. Viewers Corner regards this as wickedness. Again, we (Viewers Corner) observed that the heat is becoming too much for Governor David Umahi to bear, most probably as a result of the continuous exposure of his misleading government by an International media organization called VIEWERS CORNER that believes in equality and good governance for African people.
Viewers Corner has been writing and advising Governor David Umahi aganist his poor governance in his state, somehow things are now taking a U-turn in some of his irresponsible tax policies in Ebonyi state. Governor David Umahi is now denying giving a ministry (Environment) in his state a monthly target of 200 million naira which they should collect as tax or levy from Ebonyi state people and return to the state government, all these David Umahi has denied. Why is he denying now? Surely, he is trying to cover up some of his mistakes. All these tricks can never work again because the Ebonyi state people are beginning to realize that Governor David Umahi is hurting them. The fact is this, David Umahi says one thing now, the next minute he is singing a different tune.
A man who does things this way can never be trusted by the people he is leading which is very wrong.
On Monday, November 9, 2015, Governor David Umahi through his Commissioner for Information (Sen. Emmanuel Onwe) accused a Non-Governmental Organisation called Centre for Advanced Professional Studies (CIAPS) that rated Governor David Umahi as one of the worst performing Governors in the country for blackmailing his government. According to him, CIAPS approached him and demanded 10 million naira which the organization later scaled down to 5 million naira so that they can publish nice things about him and his state but because he did not yield to their offer, they rated him as one of the worst performing Governors in the country. Viewers Corner finds this statement very funny, we know this government is lying. All what he said are manipulations to win the public sympathy and support but Viewers Corner is advising Governor David Umahi that the only way to win the support of the people is by doing the right thing. We are repeating this again, please carry the Ebonyi state people along, create good living conditions for them and be transparent in your dealings with the people you are leading. This is the only way you can get the support of Ebonyi state people.
Once again, Viewers Corner is advising Governor David Umahi to do the right thing that would better the lives of all the people of Ebonyi state, show kindness to the people you are leading because your people are dying of hunger.
