DELTA APC: NOW A CONGLOMERATE OF SNEAKY ALLIES, PERSECUTORS AND CONMEN?

OLOMU ONYIYE.

My choice of the title above is deliberate. I couldn't really find something more appropriate than to play on the words ' ALLIES, PERSECUTORS and then CONMEN as a caricature representation of Delta APC towards its own as a Party.

Well, as to the assertion above, if anyone is in doubt, Chief Emerhor is available for the asking.

As an untrustworthy ally, Delta APC had from the beginning of its existence effusively courted Chief Emerhor as a new bride.

Afterall, it was Chief Emerhor' s money that was their war -chest deployed into every political battle.

So it was then that when an Emerhor withheld his resources, failure loomed and overtook APC in every election. To even the Local Government Elections held earlier this year, Emerhor was the indisputable party leader calling the shots.

But all that has changed now. As expected, Delta APC has stepped up its game to the next level as the adversarial Persecutor.

By the way, let me quickly interject by saying this: it is only the unwary and forgetful Deltan that should be swayed by the fictitious post as spewed by one faceless Tejiri Franklin wherein he alleged that Gov Okowa is giving Chief Emerhor's Standard Assurance Company a whopping sum of N9billion for the latter to help the Governor sway the votes in his favour come 2019. How puerile and nonsensical!

Whereas before now when it was acknowledged that Emerhor still had some political clout in his Party, Gov Okowa did not ' bribe' him, should it be now that he has be deposed as the Party leader into a state of helpless tenancy that Gov Okowa will be flying to Lagos to appeal to him for a lifeline?

Moreover,is it the Governor who still being conversant with the fact that inspite of their ranting, that Delta APC remains a paper tiger in the political terrain of the State, that will bother to go that far in squandering the hard-earned money of Delta State on an unreliable opposition desperado?

If one may ask further, is it Governor Okowa that also coerced the Delta APC chieftains, stalwarts and elders who went en mass to appeal to Chief Emerhor to both contest the Delta Central Senatorial seat and to help salvage the Party from the iron grip of the late entrant who are currently driving their Party to the precipice?

Anyway, such propaganda is not new.

Except that the operators of APC might sometimes be suffering from acute memory loss or asphyxiation, they ought to remember that they also made same allegations against Chief Ogboru ( their latest and newly-found bride)who they alleged incessantly before now, to be on the payroll of the PDP and Gov Okowa in the conspiracy to dwindle their political and electoral fortunes.

Therefore, as the Delta APC moves hysterically and in disarray towards the 2019 Elections, it's only normal that the likes of Chief Emerhor will get conned or trampled upon- without recourse to any of their immense contributions to the sustenance of the Party.

This is the case especially when it is already now ascertained that Chief Emerhor has fallen out of favour with the APC Federal Arm; that arm on which his State Chapter is desperately clinging to for some electoral miracles...did I even hear someone say---some electoral abracadabra?
