Bearing unforeseen circumstances, the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State headed by Chief Charles Ugwuh had gone to Abuja on invitation to answer various degree of query knowing that his executive were not living up to expectations.
Touched by their level of political shenanigans and financial improprieties leveled against Imo SWC, Chief Ugwuh and his Executive were seen seated uncomfortably and highly remorseful while awaiting a sledge hammer on them.
Shortly after the arrival of the National Chairman to the venue, it was discovered that Chief Ugwuh and those he is working for had sent emissaries to beg members of the NWC to save his job after verifiable records of financial embezzlement, administrative negligence, highhandedness, incompetence and bias, etc were discovered.
At this point when the NWC had gotten convincing hint about the veracity and authenticity of Chief Ugwuh led Imo SWC’s financial recklessness after the last primary elections concluded to give a final verdict of sacking them, but one man who Chief Ugwuh and colleagues are working against still saved his job.
As a leader that is not vindictive, doesn’t harbour malice, is not envious of others achievements still rose up and pleaded with members of NWC to save them from the sledge hammer. At this moment, Chief Ugwuh and colleagues, including Ihedioha and Imo elders were surprised that Samdaddy could save the situation after all the blackmail and insult against him.
Members of Imo PDP that have long lost confidence in the leadership of Chief Ugwuh led SWC are not happy that after Ugwu and his colleagues had tried their best to blackmail Sandaddy, worked for his suspension or removal; the same Samdaddy still had the mind to save their job.
Anyway, while people are not happy that Ugwuh was given a second chance after Samdaddy intervened, the question begging for answer is; how sure that Chief Ugwuh and executive will repent and work as a neutral umpire?
Sandaddy’s display of maturity is only for the peace, unity, and victory of PDP in the 2023 elections. What if SamDaddy, as PDP National Secretary, also from Imo state had endorsed the dissolution of Chief Ugwuh’s led Imo SWC?, I am aware that some people writing and talking would have changed their talking styles by now. SamDaddy doesn’t do anything to be seen as a strong man, but he first considers both the negative and positive implication of such action.
Samdaddy’s heart of forgiveness, peaceful decorum and spirit of sportsmanship is what Imo PDP needs today to win further elections. Over desperation and political thuggery and hooliganism will not help in the pursuit for victory.
If all politicians can have the same kind of forgiving spirit and tender heart as Samdaddy, no doubt, the kind of political brigandage and killings we have today would have stopped.
Others should emulate Samdaddy’s spirit of acceptance, forgiveness and sportsmanship. This is what we need in our today’s politics!
