It Is Not Impossible, But Avoidable…

Politics is a chance game. People prepare to take advantage of your weaknesses. Where it is not known, they create one and bolster it into substance.

This is the story of YPP and their “hawk’s philosophy”. I remember how PIU aided the emergence of the APGA flag bearer in the Anambra South senatorial primary at Ekwulobia township stadium. Having been disqualified, he played out two cards that got him to the red chamber at the expense of APGA.

First was to make sure that APGA’s most viable aspirant didn’t emerge. How this happened remains one of the greatest self inflicted dart at the heart of the Party.  Next was to harvest LGA and Ward aggrieved Executives of APGA. This twin factors aided the emergence of PIU. He calls it the “first game”. 

He hopes for a second game. And the only obstacle to actualizing that very game is a *SOLUDO*. Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, like other opposition Aspirants, do not want a Soludo on the APGA ballot. They know it is a killer shot, and wouldn’t want to have any of it. 

It is not impossible to have a repeat of unpleasant history. However, if you asked me, I believe it is avoidable in its entirety. 

Will APGA play into the hands of the Hawks again? Remember, the hawks just have “one more shot”.
