Pdp 'war' In Mkpat Enin Escalates, As Two Warring Factions Emerge by torobongekpo: 9:57am On Feb 22, 2016 |
PDP ‘WAR’ IN MKPAT ENIN ESCALATES AS TWO FACTIONS EMERGE! *JERRY AKPAN APPOINTED POL. LEADER REPRESENTATIVE *FRUSTRATED MMA EBE IN A SECRET MEETING WITH PUPILS. BY OUR REPORTER. The Peoples Democratic Party crises in Mkpat Enin may have taken another dramatic format as two factions emerged over the weekend with a view of contesting the Political Leadership tussle as the party congress and Chairmanship election draw closer. Our Reporter gathered that, following the aged nature of the Political Leader of the area, Obong Richard Umoren, said to be almost the same age with the former Deputy Governor of the area, Lady Valerie Ebe, the Political Stakeholders, comprises of the Federal Representative member from the area, Rt. Hon. Francize Uduyok, the Local Government Transition Chairman, Hon. Ephraim Akpan, PDP chapter Chairman, Mr. Nkereuwem Akai, Past Local Government Chairmen (Exception of Hon. Ekong Sampson), past House of Assembly members, All Former Chapter Chairmen of the party among other stakeholders, after an enlarged meeting unianimously adopted the former Commissioner for Economic Development, Hon. Jerry Akpan, as the representative of the Political Leader. Our impeccable source said that, the stakeholders, later took, Hon. Jerry Akpan, to the Political Leader, who lavishly blessed the erstwhile commissioner and gave him all the needed support, throughout his capacity as the representative and thereafter commended the political stakeholders for dimming it fit to assist him of excess duty. A Stakeholder, who exposed the reason for the choice of Mr. Jerry Akpan as the Political Leader representative, said that, he was not only level headed, but was capable of ensuring equity, fairness and justice in the political distributions in the area. Stressing further, the political bigwig maintained that, the integrity of Jerry Akpan was tested and proven in the last administration, when he was given an opportunity to nominate someone for appointment, pointing out that, he looked beyond his family and ward, just to nominate someone who was qualified. The politician stressed that, such gesture can never be pointed at the sight of Mrs, Valerie Ebe, who within the Governor’s last eight months in office has nominated his biological son, Anietie Maurice Ebe and her nephew, Hon. Stephen Ntukekpo as the SA to governor and Transition Committee Secretary in the area respectively. He recalled that, during her stay as the Deputy Governor of the state, her office was besieged with her family members, noting that, Mma Ebe, as she is fondly called was too selfish and self-centred, while in office. It was gathered that, the intimidating situation by the stakeholders, didn’t go well with Aged Mrs. Valerie Ebe, who prior to this time had paraded herself as the Political Leader, by the virtue of being the highest political office holder in the area. “As a remnant of her frustration, she gathered some non politicians such as the market women, secondary school children and some students in higher institutions, in the area, and vowed to organize a rally for the governor, so as to discountenance the earlier decision of the political stakeholders in the area”. A source whispered. A source closer to the former Deputy Governor noted that, Mrs. Ebe has concluded plans to impose her nephew, Stephen Ntukekpo on the generality of the people as the council boss, despite not being favoured by zoning. The zoning is said to be between Ukpum Minya ward one and four, which has never produced an elected chairman since from the amalgamation of Northen and Southern protectorates of Nigeria. Sunday Ndem, a former councilor in the area, said that, Stephen Ntukekpo, as his name implies, was not only unpopular for the plum job, but was seen in the mould of small masquerade, adding that, if the party should impose him on the area, the party may lose its relevant in the area. It will be recalled that, the youths of the area had last week petitioned the former Deputy Governor for trying to impose her nephew on the people, threatened to cause untold hardship incase of such imposition. Meanwhile, Mma Ebe, won’t take such threat as important, already, her nephew is said to have consulted her, where she gave the former her nod and said, ‘Go and serve Mkpat Enin people, the manner you used to take care of my immediate family members. I know if you emerge victorious you will take care of my deplorable health condition, hence the reason I want you to be there by all means, despite the odds against you regarding zoning and unacceptability.’ Pundits opine that, if the governor allows Mrs. Valerie Ebe to do her will, there may bound to be incessant killing and destruction of properties as the political stakeholders were embarking on Justice, equity and fairplay, far different from the political abracadabra said to be piloted by Ebe’s meager faction. |
