...Frustrated Enemies of Okigwe Zone Raise Ugly Heads Again.
The attention of the office of incumbent Hon Speaker of the 10th Assembly of the 27-member Imo State Legislative House has been drawn to a funny, inglorious, baseless and childish piece of information making the rounds in Social Media that Governor Hope Uzodimma's political Son, the very vibrant young man widely acclaimed as the best Local Government Chairman (Ihitte-Uboma LGA) since the creation of Imo State of Nigeria in 1976 prior to becoming the speaker of the state legislative house, Rt Hon Chike Olemgbe forged the Signatures of the Governor, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma, the Secretary to the state government, Chief Cosmas Iwu and that of another government official, to enable him(the Speaker) obtain travel documents for about 30 persons.
We laughed histerically after going through the writeup fabricated, manufactured, concocted, blended and served undiluted (as it is bereft of journalistic standards) to the innocent and unsuspecting members of the public by the usual ENEMIES of OKIGWE Senatorial District of Imo State.
At first, our attitude towards that shady and malicious piece of propaganda that could never be proven in reality any where, any time under the Sun was to ignore it and allow its Authors and witch-hunting Sponsors hit their empty Skulls on brick walls but, remembering that in some matters and issues of life, Silence might be interpreted as consent, we made U-turn and decided to react briefly.
First and foremost, the authors of that cancerous piece of information now circulating on social media and their envious Sponsors who are certainly jealous and not happy with the level of Father-Son relationship existing between the people's Governor, the Lion of Southeast Geo-political Zone, Most Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma and the vibrant Speaker of Imo State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon Chike Olemgbe did not hide their evil intention which is simply, to throw Chike Olemgbe out of office.
Citing the removal of three or four House of Assembly Speakers of Okigwe Zone extraction from office under the watch of Governor Hope Uzodimma in less than four years as a regular occurrence speaks volumes of the evil intention of that damnable, condemnable and accursed publication against an innocent political son of Hope Uzodimma who in all entirety, gave unalloyed support and marvellous blessings to the emergence of Chike Olemgbe as Number One lawmaker in Imo State.
The witch-hunters, their politically frustrated Sponsors, their allies, greedy, selfish and ungodly mentors were so beclouded and eclipsed by shallow-mindedness to the extent that they forgot or failed woefully to know that the very powerful Governor who allowed a vibrant youth and seasoned administrator of human and material resources, Chike Olemgbe to emerge as Speaker of the State House of Assembly can never and would not refuse to do anything less in order of importance for him and his relations. How on Earth can the most powerful Governor and Governor of other governors look the other way on hearing his political son's demand over a meagre issue such as travel permit.
We only want to be brief in response to this baseless allegation in view of the fact that Silence is golden and, it would amount to flogging a dead horse to begin to give relevance to a case that does not exist at all.

Peter S k Uwa
Chief Press Secretary to the Speaker, Imo State House of Assembly
