AkWA IBOM CHAIRMEN AND COUNCILLORS: SELF-IMPOSED MENTAL COLONIZATION: A PLAQUE OF PARTY LINES .

By ~ METI M. UKPEH ESQ. 

There is no doubt that PDP had a history with Akwa Ibom since 1999, but It's an abysmal shame,  a pharaoh-hearted trait and a disgusting sight that grassroot governance has been shattered by the cold-hearted hands of its pilots .

Today,  these grassroot leaders blame the government at the Centre and State for lack of AUTONOMY,  and these beg the questions:

* What happens to the "little " they have been given?  *How judicious have they used same? 

* How many Local markets have they built other than tasking the poor masses with taxes and rates? 

*  How many motor parks are established and maintained without wreaking the treasury in penury? 

* How many local borehole Waters? 

* How many of them have real local relevance but not for imposition and party idiosyncrasies? 

* How many of them sleep in their localities than burying legs on their people while their heads lie in Uyo?. 

* Should l mention more? 

 That these offices are,  whether imposed or given out as settlements to clans,  families or villages,  is the worst nightmare for the state. 

That these grassroot leaders plough only within the bounds of party-lines is a mirage and a camouflage to the eyes of enlightenment that they should have beyond PDP. 

Akwa Ibom chairmen and councillors should live up to expectations rather than becoming an irredeemable appendage to their parties. This irreversible self-mental colonization is ruining our polity. The people rejoice when the good is in power! 

Because,  a time shall come when the Falconer can no longer hear the Falconer,  and things shall fall apart.!
