Isuikwuato Political Bloc has the capabilities, capacities, and competencies to challenge and mount effectively the highly exalted position of Governorship in 2023, especially using the founding principles of EQUITY encapsulated in the Charter of Equity as the springboards and planks of the advocacy.

Internationally acclaimed Scholar, Pan Africanist Activist, and Critic, Chinweizu, incidentally, proudly of Umuokogbuo Eluama, Isuikwuato, origins, asserted emphatically as follows:
You can subjugate (brainwash, confuse, deceive or fool) all the people some of the time; some of the people all the time; but not all of the people all the time”.
What Chinweizu is saying effectively is any acts or forms of deceptions have expiration dates. Deceptive acts can flourish, thrive, and triumph for a while but definitely cannot survive or continue indefinitely!
Thusly, average and patriotic Isuikwuato politically enlightened, savvy minded indigenes, know clearly and exactly without being told or persuaded by narrowly defined political elite class interests, or by any “soothsayers” or manipulative political “Nostradamuses”, what side of the political “bread” in baking is much better “buttered” to his/her tastes and satisfaction!
Oriental Brothers International music group, reminds us as follows:
Odi Onye Ihe oma so nso?? This Philosophical classical, timeless, contemplative query, indeed, is the product of igbo native wisdom or truism!
In other words, what is good for the Gosse is good for the Gander! This is undeniably correct and true!
Isuikwuato Political Bloc has the capabilities, capacities, and competencies to challenge and mount effectively the highly exalted position of Governorship in 2023, especially using the founding principles of EQUITY encapsulated in the Charter of Equity as the springboards and planks of the advocacy.
And particularly, holding steadfastly to well established PRECEDENTS, that are not in any disputes or contentions, though some forces are bent on a mission to abrogate PRECENDENTS.
Politically savvy minded Isuikwuato citizens, would realize the political folly or political suicide of having to wait patiently at least another minimum period of 16 years, ending 2039, when zoning of the Governorship slot may come to Abia North geopolitical zone, if all things are equal, in terms of political permutations.
What are the assurances or guarantees, if Isuikwuato political bloc is rapaciously denied the opportunity now, in 2023, by certain political interests groups, including unfortunately Isuikwuato acolytes or allies of these outside anti-Isuikwuato forces, provides any semblance of hope that Isuikwuato political bloc shall come into reckoning in 2039/40 political season???
Any wonder the coordinated orchestrated efforts targeted at dishing out to already presumed “gullible” people of Isuikwuato political bloc, dexterously weaved concocted, convoluted, deceitful political propagandas, sponsored by certain political elites or class, who believe the only thing Isuikwuato political bloc is good enough for, ultimately is it be used as political “fodder”.
No doubt, yes! we may be faithful PDP Loyalists, and desirous for electoral success of the Party, but in another critical context, the burning issue or nagging question remains:
For 2023 general elections why did the “devious”hands holding the Umbrella feel highly constrained and uncomfortable to ACCOMMODATE Isuikwuato political bloc to have shelter under the Umbrella SPECIFICALLY for the Governorship slot??
This vicious act or policy, can never be considered nothing but acts of impunity, imperial dictatorship, undemocratic, and contravention of extant principles on zoning formula of sensitive, strategic political offices in Abia State.
More so, what more can be said given the undisputed facts and knowledge the incumbent Governor seat and PDP Chairmanship positions are occupied respectively by individuals from the same geopolitical zone??
Why did PDP Apparatchiks and Echelons from same geopolitical zone suddenly resort to the ruse of “inventing” in the Party’s hiden political Laboratory “strange” and “contentious” formular adopted in zonig the Governorship position, in defiance, at variance, or departure from established and extant protocols and precedents??
Why the violations with impudence of accepted and acknowledged equitable, adopted, existing workable arrangements, if not the intents are deviced or despicably designed to relegate permanently Isuikwuato political bloc as the perceived “minority” to political backwaters, insignificance or irrelevance, specifically in the contexts of the exalted, strategic Governorship position??
I hope, our highly esteemed PDP Members, particularly government commissioned Expert analysts and pundits, shall come up with cogent and convincing answers accordingly, and not merely serve us stale hypothetical postulations, discordant rhapsodies, sterile political liturgies and rhetorics, designed to shy away from the real substances in contentions in 2023 elections.
It is only after thorough examinations and considerations of these burning matters, Isuikwuato voters and electorate would be able to decide the fate of Isuikwuato political bloc by means of ballot box in 2023 Guber elections.
Moreover, these kinds of arguments essentially can be converted or extrapolated to mirror the circumstances at the national level in the case of Presidential and NASS/HoR politics, as it concerns the South East geopolitical zone; and specifically Isuikwuato political political bloc in the context of Isuikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency.
To conclude, we started off with Chinweizu’s assertions, and to summarize, here are the words of Chinweizu:
“If we should fail, or if we should betray our people; if our descendants (posterity) should discover that we left undone those things which we ought to have done, and did those things which we ought not to have done, and that our patriotism was fake, inept or underdone, then our descendants (posterity) mired in everlasting subjection to others, can never honestly pray: Forgive them, Lord, for they know not what they did”.
