Gov Peter Obi and company have completed Plans to rule Anambra state for a "4th term in 2014. Fisrt term being before the impeachment , 2nd term and 3rd term after the impeachment saga. Who says power does not corrupt absolute!. All fingers point that this is the latest plan which is gradually unfolding with a rubber stamp from the presidency who needs Anambra quiet for a successful 2015 bid for himself . The war with Victor Umeh and other long term allies together with reluctance and blatant refusal to conduct L.G.A over the years using various puerile excuses .
Gov Peter Obi actually believes that Anambra people are gullible? Are they ?
This plan has been hatched and will be executed with the stamp of His Excellency Goodluck Jonathan. Wonder why Peter Obi is always in the Aso Rock ? Wonder why Peter Obi quelled fuel subsidy riots in 10 minutes using brutal soldiers against his people to please Jonathan? Wonder why Jonathan awarded Peter Obi Grand commander of the Federal republic , wonder why Jonathan awarded Peter Obi into his financial planning committee, Wonder why other State Governors like Enugu state , Abia and of late Gov Okorocha of Imo state have distanced themselves from Gov Peter Obi, infarct of late at Alex Ekwueme's 80th Birthday there was an open fight with Gov Okorocha and Peter Obi over seating arrangement.
APGA Chairman, Chief Victor Umeh had earlier told
Anambra indigenes when he visited London that his insistence that the
Peter Obi administration conducts the Local Govt election was
at the root of his quarel with the state governor.
"I really want to know how much
money has been allocated to Orumba South Local Govt by the federal Govt
and how much development has been brought to that LG area."
Disappointed Anambra citizens insist that "if
Obi fails to conduct this LGA election before he vacates government
house, Awka, he should render to us an account of how he spent the
Billions allocated to the 21 Anambra LGA's every month".for the past 7 years .
For seven years since he became the
Anambra State Governor, Mr. Peter Obi, has continued to use
different excuses for not conducting elections into local government
areas of the state.
The people have actually expressed apprehension that the issue of
council polls in the state has been politicized by successive
administrations in the state to the detriment of grassroots governance
and the growth of democracy.
What appears to be a ray of hope in
recent time for the conduct of council elections has been enmeshed in
political intrigues as the matter has been made to linger indefinitely
by the gladiators.
So far, this is the third time that
the date of the conduct of council polls in the state was announced in
the past one year and postponed without conducting the elections. The
election was first fixed for December 4, 2011, but was suddenly shifted
indefinitely in response to wide protest against the use of a flawed
voter register.
Again, the Anambra Governor, Mr.
Peter Obi, announced November 9, 2011 as another likely date for the
election. Just like before, the proposed elections did not hold.
Following this development,
different politicians, especially, chairmanship and Councillor
aspirants, who had procured forms, have called for the immediate conduct
of the council elections in the state for democracy to develop at equal
level with other states of the federation.
All the people in Peter Obi;s camp are graciously rewarded , like Bianca Ojukwu who was appointed Ambassador to Spain and many others. He has utilized the L.G.A funds from over years to buy over the majority of the H.O.A members including the current speaker. The people's voices are been trampled by Peter Obi who is tending towards a dictator than a democratically elected Governor. Open your eyes and read his peoples crying out .

The
Press release from Anambra State House of Assembly has confirmed the extension of the
tenure of Local Government Transition Committee for another three
months.
You will recall that the present Committees have already served for six months thereby making a total of nine months of the expiration of their present tenure.
Speaking shortly after their confirmation, the Speaker of State House of Assembly, Princess Chinwe Nwaebili who commended the committees for their past performances, warned that the state legislature will not hesitate to summon any airing chairman or member, when the situation demands.

Mr Pat Okpala
Gov.
Peter Obi has been called the best Governor that Anambra State has ever
had. I used to think that and write about that too. He improved the
government infrastructure. He improved schools, hospitals, more roads
and tried to make Anambra State the financial hub of the Southeast. I
applauded him and his administration but I have a different view now.
He lost favor with me when he arbitrarily usurped my
right to vote for my Local Government elected officers - the LG
executive and the legislature. He denied me the right to exercise my
democratic and constitutional freedom. In doing so, he abrogated to
himself the right to use the constitutional funds allocated to my Local
Government to develop other parts of the State of his choosing. For
that, Governor Peter Obi is no different from past Military leaders of
the State and his so-called stellar record stand diminished to oblivion
if he does not conduct LG elections.
We understand that the legislature is a
co-conspirator in this act of trampling on democracy but the time is not
late for a change on their part. Local Government Election in Anambra
State is a must under this administration. And if Governor Obi does
not conduct Local Government Election, (no matter the intrigues of
the recent constitutional powers of the Governors as regards the LG's),
he will go down in history as the Governor that trampled on democracy in
order to satisfy his cronies and his insatiable ego. Caretaker
Committee for 6 years and counting? Mr. Press Secretary, Fidelis
Nwakwesili, tell your boss to conduct Local Government Elections and he
will win back his informed but lost supporters.
Pat Okpala, Anambra Citizen.
