- Outgoing Lawmaker lacks Electoral value - Analyst
A Political associate and ally of the incumbent House of Representatives member representing Aboh Mbaise Ngor Okpala Federal Constituency, Sir Sunny Ndukwu has taken Rt Hon Bede Eke to the cleaners over his planned defection to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
Fielding questions from news men on Sunday shortly after a stakeholders meeting of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Ngor Okpala LGA, Ndukwu, a Public Affairs Analyst described Bede Eke as a public Office holder who has failed Integrity Test.
"There is nothing wrong in joining any Political party of your choice in as much as you believe in the ideology of the party and you think that you can leverage on their platform to advance your aspiration. Bede Eke is a young man I came in contact with in 2016 as my federal lawmaker.
"I handle most of his media jobs and I can give account of his strength and weaknesses as his media consultant. Some of us who had opportunity to work with him stepped on toes in our bid to project him to lime light politically and I can state categorically that Bede Eke based on his conduct ever since he lost his re-election bid to the House of Representatives developed a strange attitude which many of us are yet to understand his present lifestyle. Bede Eke lost the Aboh Mbaise-Ngor Okpala Reps ticket to Engr Albert Chibuzor Agulanna and I dare to say he was in position to retain the ticket but he was uncoordinated which led to his defeat. Accusing anyone of working against his return to the green chamber is nothing but making mockery of himself, he had all it takes to retain the party's ticket.
"In my estimation, I see the present day Bede Eke as a man who is battling with his conscience and require urgent assistance. He is indeed a jinx breaker but with the way he is going, he might end up relegating himself politically before the end of the second quarter of this year.
"I met Bede Eke in Divine Mandate Movement, a political structure championing governorship aspiration of Sen Samuel Anyanwu, both of us were members of the Campaign Council, and I can vividly tell you that Bede Eke had no genuine reason of leaving the campaign council not to talk of defecting to the ruling APC. I have been inundated with calls from media executives in the state as well as correspondents of National dailies to confirm news of his defection to APC and all i keep telling those who cares to know is that my outgoing federal lawmaker lacks integrity.
"You can not accuse Rt Hon Emeka Ihedioha for all you care, speak negatively against the incumbent governor of Imo State, Sen Hope Uzodinma and less than six months, you go back to your vomit, it means you lack character and should not be taken serious. I will not prempt reasons why he is defecting but will patiently await his speech after defection then we take it from there, Ndukwu noted.
Meanwhile, Rt Hon Bede Eke will be received alongside some defectors on Monday by Gov Hope Uzodinma at the Ndubuisi Kanu Hall, it was learnt that the reception was scheduled for Saturday, 22nd April in Ngor Okpala LGA but was rescheduled to take place in Monday, 24th April.
