THE national Spokesperson for the Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP, Comrade Mark Adebayo, who also doubles as the Convener of the New Direction for Nigeria Movement, has poured encomiums on the Honorable member representing the Ideato North and South federal constituency of Imo state, Honorable Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, for the courage he displayed by dumping the troubled People’s Democratic Party and joining the Action People’s Party of which the Spokesperson is also a member after a long-drawn internal Party crises that have virtually rendered the PDP a shadow of its former self.

Honourable Ikenga announced his defection to the APP on Wednesday, the 7th of January, at a public rally held at Ideato.

The Press Release reads thus “Dear Honorable Ikenga Ugochinyere, I commend the bold step you took to dump a sinking ship and aligning yourself with a political Party that is poised to become the rallying point of opposition activism and the beautiful bride in Nigeria’s democratic re-engineering. The wide acceptability of your action by your people could be guaged by the unprecedented mammoth crowds that graced the occasion of your public announcement of relocating their mandate to a more stable and stronger political Party with seamless internal democracy and consistency in democratic principles guided by a genuinely patriotic leadership.

“Your political sagacity is evident in your admirable capacity for pragmatic navigation of the complex labyrinths of Nigeria’s political cosmogony, despite your youthfulness.

“You fought a good fight in the People’s Democratic Party. You invested so much in your efforts to rally the Party’s stakeholders to salvage the PDP, but the Party had gone beyond redemption because the falcons could no longer hear the falconers due to powerful internal hatchet-jobbers. Your bold move is a testament to your pedigree as a fighter for social justice and a defender of the democratic rights of not only your constituents, but Nigerians as a whole.

“You have been known as an intrepid go-getter who sacrifices so much in defence of what is right, just, and proper. Your decision to join the APP with its illimitable and positive potentials is probably the best decision of your political career. The massive solidarity you received from your constituents for this action is a sure endorsement of your electability next year in whatever capacity you may wish to contest. Your people have spoken loud and clear that your election mandate is as solid as the rock of Gibraltar and as constant as the Northern star. You possess the youthful energy, intelligence, and requisite experience to always make a difference in the lives of your constituents and far beyond.

“The enthusiasm that your people displayed when murderous state actors tried severally to assassinate you by electing you even in absentia has evidently burgeoned as could be seen at your public announcement yesterday. Certainly, ‘A luta continua, but vitória é certa’.

“To you, your entourage, and esteemed family, I express my unreserved congratulations and solidarity. Working together, we can do a lot to help our dear country”, the Press Release concluded.
