—Threatens To Activate Citizen Arrest If Failed To Be Arrested In 48hrs 

The Orlu Political Consultative Assembly,(OPOCA) has called on security agencies for the immediate arrest of the former illegal governor of Imo State, Emeka Ihedioha within 48hrs, or have them call for citizen arrest.

National President of OPOCA high command Chief Barr. Sokom Rexanunobi alongside executives of the assembly made this disclosure on Monday while addressing a world press conference at Ndubuisi Kanu Square,Owerri.

Ihedioha was accused of  masterminding series of  insecurity in the State especially in Orlu Senatorial zone,following a leaked phone call online last week where he(Ihedioha) was threatening to make the administration of Governor Uzodimma ungovernable. 

According to OPOCA they have well detailed evidence to nail Ihedioha on his involvement in the alleged crime, however stated that if security agencies fail to utilize evidence provided for thorough investigation and immediate arrest, they will not only call for citizen arrest but also place a bounty for anyone who apprehend him in or outside the State. 

OPOCA commended the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Imo State Chapter for organizing a recent Imo day of prayer stating that it was the prayer answered that exposed insecurity sponsors who are now confessing by themselves.

It’s often said that “giving is a sign that one has conquered SELFISHNESS AND GREED”. But nobody can genuinely give without being in love with the people around him. When it comes to giving because of love for humanity, Senator Osita Bonaventure Izunaso towers above most of his contemporaries especially in Orlu axis. 

Senator Osita Izunso is a seasoned Journalist and Lawyer whose philanthropic lights have never dimmed before and after he stepped into Nigeria’s political arena. This is because of his undying love for humanity; his love and care for the less privileged in the society which has undoubtedly earned him enormous love of the people.

Osita Izunaso is popularly known as KPAKPANDO, which means Star. As a shining star among his people, Senator Izunaso used all the appointive and elective positions he has held to touch the lives of people around him. The love he has for his people created a strong bond between them which earned him election into the House of Representatives in 2003 to represent Oru West, Oguta and Ohaji/Egbema Federal Constituency. While at the House of Representatives, he gave his people quality representation through effective representation, legislation and oversight which attracted road projects and other infrastructures to his constituency. As a matter of fact, his election into the House of Representatives increased the volume of his philanthropic gestures which overwhelmed the good people of Orlu zone to elect him as their Senator in 2007. Senator Osita Izunaso used the instruments of effective legislation to attract many laudable projects to Orlu zone. He facilitated the employment of many sons and daughters of Orlu zone into various positions in the federal civil service. Also, Senator Osita Izunaso established his Kpakpando Foundation through which he empowered many less privileged and disabled persons for better livelihood. 

The achievements of Osita Izunaso as a Senator are indelible in the history of Orlu zone and that’s why the people of Orlu zone are yearning for his return to the Senate and consolidate his numerous achievements in the zone. Fortunately, the National Assembly elections have provided a great opportunity to Orlu zone to return Kpakpando Orlu to the Senate for the continuation of his numerous human and infrastructural developments. This is the reason why he has decided to answer the clarion call of his people to return to the Senate by making himself available for Orlu Senatorial election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Although, Senator Osita Izunaso has challengers in PDP and LP but it’s very clear for even the blind to see that Senator Osita Izunaso is the most competent to represent Orlu Zone in the Senate because of his track records. He is a tested and trusted legislator who can’t afford to fail his people.

In recognition of his outstanding contributions to to the betterment of our society, Senator Osita Izunaso has been honoured with many chieftaincy titles and awards by many communities and organizations. Also, in recognition of his contributions to national development, Senator Osita Izunaso was honoured with Officer of Federal Republic (OFR) by President Muhammadu Buhari during the last National Honours Award. This is indeed, another Eagle feather to the golden cap of Kpakpando. 

The laudable achievements of Senator Osita Izunaso are indelible in the hearts of Orlu people. Many sons and daughters of Orlu have continued to applaud the National Honour bestowed on Senator Izunaso, describing it as well deserved. It’s not in doubt that the National Honour recently conferred on Senator Izunaso is a National endorsement for more service to the good people of Orlu zone. This has really placed him far above his opponents in the Orlu Senatorial race. Honestly, the candidacy of Senator Osita Izunaso is an assurance of better days for Orlu zone as he is better equipped for quality and effective representative than his opponents who are only coming to learn the job. Having passed through the rungs of legislative ladder, Senator Osita Izunaso is best equipped with the requisite experience to represent Orlu zone at the upper chamber of the National Assembly. Kpakpando is committed to  leading Orlu zone on the path of prosperity and massive development; his antecedents are witnesses to his capacity to deliver democracy dividends to his people. 

It’s not in doubt that the national honour conferred on Senator Osita Izunaso will give him more strength work for the good people of Orlu zone as the people warm up to return him to the red chambers come 2023. 

The good people of Orlu zone are undoubtedly proud of their son, Senator Osita Izunaso who has distinguished himself in the service of God and humanity. This uncommon love of Senator Osita Izunaso for his people will surely be reciprocated by the people at the polls by voting massively for his return to the senate. This is because, he had performed for done extremely well and will definitely do more if he returns to the Senate to represent the good people of Orlu zone. 

As a golden man with a heart of gold, Osita Izunaso deserves the golden crown at this critical moment of Orlu history in other to restore it to the the path golden opportunities and economic prosperity where effective legislation, job creation, women and youth empowerment and infrastructural development will be pursued with vigor for massive development of Orlu zone.

Ahead of the 2023 elections, National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Samuel Nnaemeka Anyanwu has said that every member of the party in Imo state has a responsibility to be loyal to PDP, adding that by so doing, the victory of the party will be assured irrespective of personal interest.

Anyanwu called on party members and Stakeholders to put personal interest aside and join hands to move the party forward, regretting that as a result of internal wrangling witnessed in the past, PDP was unable to take its rightful place during the 2015 and 2019 elections respectively.

According to him, contrary to speculations that he was working to dissolve the current State Working Committee (SWC) of the party in the state, he urged the public to see such misleading story as not only baseless and diversionary, but totally false.

“We are doing everything possible to galvanize the party in our state. In doing this, all hands must be on deck to raise enough funds for the party to meet its financial obligations. I am aware of a fake news linking me to a phony underground plot to dissolve the present SWC of our party in the state; please disregard the falsehood, it remains the handiwork of mischief makers” he said.

Anyanwu therefore assured of his readiness to continue to assist the party financially when necessary, and warned against the use of unguarded statements by some leaders to cause disaffection. 

He said that such unguarded utterances are not only capable of igniting crisis within the party, but can discourage members from carrying out their responsibilities to the party.

Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike has said the sins of the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Iyorchia Ayu are so grievous that if they are disclosed his children will disown him.

“If people know what we know, if we release what we have, Ayu’s children will go to him and say we are no longer your children,” Wike said.

Speaking during a live media chat in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, on Friday, the Governor said Ayu had no locus to stand before Nigerians and campaign for PDP ahead of the 2023 general elections.

The Governor maintained the PDP boss has no integrity and alleged that the chairman also received double pay for a single project.

On the N1billion he accused  Ayu of collecting, Wike said:   “There cannot be any comment. He (Ayu) cannot say anything. Look, I am the governor of Rivers state and I don’t just come out to speak.

"Let Ayu say he did not collect N1 billion. In fact, let me also tell you, Ayu collected N100 million naira from a Governor that he was going to renovate our democratic institution and then he (Ayu) went back to the PDP NWC and took the same N100 million naira for doing the same work.

“What kind of system is that? I am telling you all these are facts. Let him (Ayu) say no first and I will tell you (those he collected money from).

“A leader must be a man of integrity. And I have realised that people find it hard to have that (integrity) lately. You are presenting a man (Ayu) who lacked integrity as chairman of the party. Somebody that wants to lead a campaign to take the reigns of government?

"What is the problem with what we are asking of Ayu? We are saying let there be equity, let there be fairness and justice. But if you don’t want it that way then you are the one causing the crisis (in the party) and that shows you (Ayu) don’t have leadership skills because this is the time to show it. This is the time to show leadership skills on the part of those who are leaders of the party.”
