Chief Chidiebere J. Okoh, APC chieftain in Abia State, has responded to Chief David Ogba Onuoha Bourdex’s recent article “The Politics of Distraction: When a Man Needs an Enemy to Survive,” reaffirming Senator Orji Uzor Kalu’s unrivaled political stature in Abia North. Okoh argues that Senator Kalu is “Mmiri Nyiri Enyi” – his political sagacity and extensive network – continues to be the sole force capable of delivering meaningful dividends of democracy to the region, a claim underscored by Kalu’s history of influencing positive projects in the senatorial zone.. Okoh contends that Bourdex’s critique of Kalu over alleged crusade against…
HIS EXCELLENCY ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU, GCFROn the Urgent Need to Revive the Eastern Ports and End Structural EconomicMarginalizationBy Chief Dr. David Ogba Onuoha Bourdex, MFR’OON—Ugo’Ena” Nde Abiriba. Mr. President,There comes a time in the life of a nation when silence becomes an accomplice to suffering, and truth — even when heavy — must be carried to the center stage. With the steadying respect due to your office, but with the candor demanded by history, I write to you today on a matter that has long choked the economic lungs of the Eastern Region and fueled avoidable agitation: the death…
It is not only foolish but profoundly childish to keep insinuating that His Excellency, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti, OFR, is lobbying to join the APC.That is a fantasy woven in the same threadbare cloth of deceit that has long draped the politics of the Kalu Brothers—a tired script, predictable in its arrogance and insulting to the intelligence of discerning Abians.

The recently circulated fiction titled “EXPOSED: The Real Reasons APC Rejected Governor Alex Otti” is not journalism — it is political sewage disguised as news. Its author, hiding behind a cheap headline and anonymous “sources,” represents the lowest form of political desperation: the kind that mistakes fabrication for strategy and gossip for governance. Let’s be clear: Dr.…
