Reading through the piece “As Okowa plays God in deciding who becomes next governor”, By Ekene Ozuagbu, one often wonders whether some people who write stuff and post in the public space are either ignorant Christians who do not read the bible at all or outright heathens who are unaware of the fact that there’s a divine connection between God and leaders Otherwise, sanctimonious folks like this Ekene Ozuagbu, who quickly jump into the public space to display avoidable lack of knowledge of the relationship between party politics and leadership, would display a bit of common sense and avoid embarrassment,…

What an irony! When the immediate past Governor, Uduaghan, attempted the same thing against him, the party members, leaders and elders rose up to oppose the Governor in his support. How now is he trying to do exactly the same thing? How can one man, no matter his position, want to be the only decider in spite of the hundreds of thousands…
