Awgu Youth Alliance ( AYA ) purposely refused to react to the baseless and meaningless campaign against the present leadership of Awgu local government by some mischievous, unscrupulous political jobbers because we are apolitical.
But, be as it may, we can no longer sit and watch these mischievous politicians turn Awgu local government into theater of political war, which we all know is the consequential product of politics of bitterness, just for their selfish interest against the forthcoming November/December local government election.
We are much concerned about the welfare of Awgu youths, which we all know, will definitely be the willing tools in the hands of these politicians if this ugly trend is not nipped at the nub before it blows into full fledge political war.
Character assassination, outright blackmail and peddling of falsehood, are no doubt, some of the immoral vices employ by politicians to discredit and squash soaring profile of their opponents for their selfish political gain.
Unfortunately, this filthy style of politicking comes with a lot of ugly consequences which at the extreme, the bloods and the glorious futures of the youths are sacrificed by these mischievous politicians to achieve their selfish goals.
The youths of Awgu under the aegis of Awgu Youth Alliance will not sit down and watch such happen in Awgu.
No interest of any politician in Awgu, equals the blood of any youth.
We therefore, appeal to them to stop this unhealthy campaign henceforth and embrace the modern civil campaign of intellectual superiority.
Obama won the president of America through intellectual superiority display via clear and well articulated roadmap to American economic development.
Dr Kingsley moughalu, the presidential candidate of the YPP, was among the five candidates invited for presidential debate, among over eighty aspirants, because of his superior intellectual display and well articulated roadmap to economic development which earned him much respect among Nigerians. He is now among the few tipped for southeast presidential slot come 2023.
Therefore, we wish to see these acclaimed “geniuses”, come up with superior and well articulated roadmap, strategies, policies with a well defined targets and milestones on how they will develop Awgu local government if given the opportunity nor what they feel the present leadership of Awgu local government should have done better or should do to better the lots of Ndi Awgu under the present condition and statue of local government system in Nigeria.
We wish to see genuine and positive synergy with clear unity of purpose and sincere intentions on how to better the lives of Awgu youths and Ndi Awgu in general in understandable display.
In addition, we are no strangers in Nigeria, we all know how local government system works in Nigeria and the effort president Buhari is making to address it.
We also know what recession means and how it affected the general system of governance nationwide which is evident at every segment of the present dispensation when placed at par with the past government on the basis of achievements which is clearly understandable due to low federal allocations, IGR and the general system of governance.
Furthermore, it’s no longer news that sitting governors of Zanfara, Benue, to mention but a few, all once cried out that they cannot control the security situation in their respective states because of the peculiar nature of the security challenges and higher vested interest behind the security challenges.
Fortunately, to the glory of God, God gave our governor wisdom of the order of Solomon, to navigate through this very sensitive, delicate and peculiar security situation.
People of good will world over are commending our governor’s ingenuity in handling the peculiar security situation in Enugu state.
It’s unfortunate, it all started in Awgu.
In conclusion, we want to firmly appeal to those behind this mischievous campaign to retract their steps before it is too late. Before warn is to be before arm.
They should channel their genuine complains and grievances through civil and appropriate quarters.
Note’ Awgu Youth Alliance under the leadership of Comr AKPA FRANCIS is not for anybody or against any group; we are solely for the welfare and general good of Awgu youth and Ndi Awgu in general.
We are promoting civility and good governance in Awgu and your actions and style of campaign negates this noble principle of modern society. That is why we decided to make this clarion call to nip this cancerous nub before it blows out of proportion.
We look forward to seeing better and more civiliz ed Awgu Local Government.
Thank you all.
Long live Awgu!
Long live Enugu State!!!
Long live Nigeria!!!!
