IMO APC,THE FIRST AMONG EQUALS IN SOUTH- EAST; MACDONALD EBERE PhD, a matador of political party administration.

Published

on

Hon. Sir Macdonald Ebere PhD, KSJI

 

The path of a man’s journey through politics can be predestined by providence and yet influenced by hard work and circumstances that may weave or belt a unique narrative/embroidery to the fabrics of his political trajectory; Macdonald Ebere PhD as a reference point.

The State Chairman of Imo APC Sir Macdonald Ebere beyond the calculations of Imolites, transformed the party splendidly to the extent that Imo APC is now veraciously conceptualized as the best and most organized state political party in the entire South East of Nigeria.

Upon his emergence as the democratically elected state Chairman of our great Party, he positively repositioned the party faithfully, thought energetically, spoke powerfully for the party and effectively represented the party in the highest cause that enlisted the devotion of a technocrat to political party management/Administration;

the agglutination of the above coruscating contributions to Imo APC by Hon. Sir Macdonald Ebere PhD, found eloquent expression in the titanic/unprecedented victory our great Party recorded in Sir Macdonald Ebere’s first electoral assignment, which is the Ngor Okpala state Constituency by-election. In that election, Macdonald Ebere PhD ventilated a political strength that is yet to be equalled in the political lexicon of party politics in the whole of South-East.

Macdonald Kelechi Ebere held aloft the banner of dexterity with courage and ability that compelled the political homage and fealty of Ngor Okpala constituents, who with credence to the state Chairman’s impeccable character, conduct, generosity of spirit, indomitable/political will, tact and resounding political sagacity and credentials, voted massively for our great Party and her candidate in the aforementioned election.

Imo is indeed blessed to have a state party Chairman in the mold of Hon. Sir Macdonald Ebere, whose political capacity gave Imo APC the congruent Numero Uno status in the assembly of South East political parties;

It’s pretty on record too, that the warm sunshine of Sir Macdonald Ebere’s political influence not only eclipsed/sequestrated the potency of other political parties in the South East, but also erosioned and melted down the proclivities of their prospects and possible resurrection to glory.

Truly, Sir Macdonald Ebere is a leading light and a towering multi-talented political connoisseur that has positively fumigated the political architecture of Imo APC to an enviable height, in obedience to the yearnings and demand of APC faithfuls in particular and Imolites at large.

At this point, I will equally give colossal kudos to our ebullient governor Distn. Sen. Hope Uzodinma (The political oxygen of South East), for mentoring Sir Macdonald Ebere from the political raw material/embryo stage, to his present political finished product stage. This healthy political tutelage from the Grand Master of Nigeria politics @ our vision driven governor Hope Odidika Uzodinma, helped Sir Macdonald Ebere beyond measure, to efficiently navigate the affairs of Imo APC congruently.

Hon. Macdonald Ebere cemented his political popularity dominance of the political parties spaces in the South-East on the 11th November 2023 Imo gubernatorial election, where he devastatingly and laceratively pummeled the opposition parties to oblivion. The Imo APC First citizen @ Macdonald Ebere systematically obliterated all the perceived thump arthritis of the capacity dehydrated opposition parties, boxed them to a suffocating/murderous corner, before unleashing his political inter continental ballistic missiles that got them sunk into ignominious vsssalage.

Macdonald Kelechi Ebere PhD, through the recorded November 11th 2023 gubernatorial resounding victory, carved a niche for himself and has equally beyond expression, broadened the field of State political party management to National dimensions.

The conglomeration of these uncommon/unprecedented feats by Imo APC, stands her out prominently, as not only the Primus inter pares political party in the entire South-East, but also positioned the Imo State APC Chairman Hon. Sir Macdonald Ebere PhD, KSJI, as the Numero Uno political party Chairman in the whole South-East.

Let it be recorded in the political lexicon of South-East and so be it.

‘I get excited when we make law that angers opposition’ – Akpabio

Published

on

President of the Nigerian Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio says when the opposition expresses anger over any law made in the Senate, he gets excited.

Akpabio spoke on Saturday in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital, while addressing the audience in reception of the First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu.

According to him, anger from the opposition signals to him that the right law has been made.

He declared that opposition figures threatening to boycott the 2027 presidential election are just not ready for the contest.

He said, “Each time we make a law and the opposition frowns, I get excited that I’ve made the right law”.

 

“Yesterday I saw one man shouting on TV because of the Amended Electoral Act, saying we’re likely to boycott elections.

“My response was tell the truth, you’re boycotting the elections because you’re not ready. If you are ready you won’t boycott.”

NASS: Nigerian society oppressive to women, we’re not allowed to speak – Kingibe

Published

on

Federal lawmaker, representing the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, in the Senate, Ireti Kingibe, has said that the six special seats for women in the Nigerian Senate will not change anything.

According to her, the Senate will still remain overwhelmingly male-dominated.

She lamented that reducing the special seats to 6 does not solve the problem, adding that it does not fundamentally change representation or the balance of voices in the Senate.

Ireti, who is the Chair, Senate Committee on Women Affairs, pointed out that until there are deliberate measures to increase women’s representation, the situation would remain the same.

Speaking on Arise News, the lawmaker was asked whether the political setting in Nigeria is not rather too hostile for women.

She said, “No, it’s only because the men choose to make it so. In the National Assembly, outspoken men are described as just outspoken. Outspoken women like me are described as troublesome.

“Now I’ve even asked some men to define what the difference is between an outspoken female parliamentarian and why do you describe them differently? Now, the gender equal opportunity bill has gone to first reading. I’ve been struggling for it to go to second reading.

“Whenever I lobby some of my colleagues, especially the older ones, it is ‘why do you need that? Does it not contravene the Constitution?’ I said no, the Constitution says 50% and I’m asking you to enforce 35%.

“Now even the special seats the Senate insisted that from 37 they cut it down to six. Now, let me just give you theoretically, there are four female senators in the Senate right now, let us assume that two do not return, when you add six to them, please, what’s the difference? Eight senators.

“And I tried to make that argument that six is inconsequential. It does not change the narrative of anything. In fact, I will also tell you that even in the Senate, when you have four women, yes, you cannot spread four women across everything but lots of times you set up an ad-hoc committee of 20 people, sometimes there’s no woman on it.

“And at the end of the day, I believe that until we, the countries that are not gender inclusive, have penalties internationally, things are not going to change.

“They have started some of the penalties right now in a lot of the International parliaments, any country that does not have a woman, sometimes two women on his delegation, depending on the number of delegates, cannot vote its full votes.

“Nigeria is unlikely to comply, because the men have this reactionary attitude that is more cultural than even religions. Because countries like UAE, Saudi Arabia, all those ones that are Muslim countries, they’ve left us all behind and Nigeria is supposed to be even a secular state.

“So I do not see the reason, except that we have a society that is oppressive to women. Sometimes you want to say something. You’re not allowed to speak unless you make a fuss. How then do you get this country to develop without the voice of 50% of its population?

“We do have a problem. I am also waiting to see that, will we actually pass this bill before the 10th Assembly finishes? I remember that even after we do, we still need 24 state assemblies to agree.”
