Otu Obiahu Speaks!
YOUR GOOD WORKS AND QUALITY REPRESENTATION WILL SPEAK FOR YOU THAN RECRUITING A BATTALION OF PAID IMAGE MAKERS!
{…Rural Women Can Sing Better For You When Their Lives Are Touched; Ask Ude Nwachi}
The Only Thing That Will MAKE AND PROJECT YOUR IMAGE As A Political Office Holder Is Service Delivery And Not Social Media Image Makers.
Recruiting A Battalion Of Image Makers Is Not Enough To Convince The Masses; Your Good Works Have To Have A Direct Impact On The Lives Of Your Constituents- The Youths, The Children And The Aged.
When You Get The Hearts Of The People, You Wouldn’t Spend Much Money Paying & Servicing Your Hired Image Makers; The Common People You Touched Their Lives Through Quality Representation Shall ANNOUNCE YOU To The World And Would Become Your Free (Unpaid) Image Makers.
Hon. Maria Ude Nwachi Didn’t Hire A Choral Band To Win The Heart Of Her People, But Her Kindness And Labour Of Love For Her People Singled Her Out And Greatly Endeared Her To Her People, Which Made Her A Household Name, Not Only In Afikpo, But In Ebonyi And Beyond.
Even If Maria Decides To Lead A Quiet Life And Not To Run For Any Position, Her Past Works Would Continue To Speak For Her!
Hon. Chinedu Ogah Is Another Example Of A Good Representative Whose Labour Of Love And Quality Service Delivery Have Positively Projected His Image Above The Politicians That Started Before Him In His Senatorial District, More Than Any Recruited Media Aide Could Have Projected Him In The Eyes Of The Public.
Today, Ogah Is Famous And Loved By All, Not Because Of The Commitment Of His Media Aides, But His Good Works!
It’s Very Shameful And Unfortunate That Most Nigerian Politicians Now Employ The Services Of Myriad Of Media Aides Cum Image Makers Who Would Be Dishing Out Lies To The Public, Just To Deceive The Gullible And To Cover Up Their Inefficiencies And Abysmal Failures.
Ebonyi Case Is Presently In A Sorry State; Where You See So Many Young People And A Handful Of Adults (Who Can Be Best Described As ‘Any Government Official In Power’ – AGIP), Jumping From One Politician To Another, And Pouring Tantrums On One Another On The Social Media, In A Bid To Properly MAKE THE IMAGE Of Whomsoever They Are Supporting.
Unfortunately, Every Political Office Holder In Ebonyi Wants To Emulate The State Governor, Dave Umahi Who Recruited About One Thousand Social Media Soldiers; Thinking That It Is All That Is Required To Make A Government Official (Elected Or Appointed) Look Good Before The Masses. No, Not At All!
All The Newly Appointed Caretaker Committee Chairmen (CCC) In Ebonyi State, Particularly That Of Afikpo North Local Government Area, Should Sit Down And Take A Closer Look At Their Councils, Take A Careful Note Of The Challenges Faced By The People, And Then Chart A Possible Way Of Tackling Those Problems.
Secondly, Identify Some Of The Weaknesses Of The Past Chairman And What The People Expected Him/Her To Do Which He/She Didn’t Do; Work On Those Areas And Use It As A Stepping Stone To Perform Better Than Your Former Boss.
Again, Call A Town Hall Meeting To Interact With Your People From Time To Time, Especially Now That You’re Taking Over As The New Chairman.
People Love Interacting With Their Representatives; It Gives Them Joy And Sense Of Belonging, And Equally Gives Them The Avenue To Air Their Views.
Finally, Hit The Ground Running!
When You Apply The Above Mentioned Tactics, Your People Would Be Happy With You; And You Would Discover That The Local Women Are Better SINGERS And IMAGE MAKERS Than The Recruited Band Of Media Aides.
Remember, When The Tenure Of Your Appointment Expires; If You Cannot Stand For An Election And Emerge Victorious Without The Governor Or Higher Powers Rigging The Election In Your Favour And Imposing You On The People That Are Supposed To Elect You; That Shows You Didn’t Do Well The First Time You Served!
Some Past Chairmen Are In That Condition NOW!
This Is Your Opportunity To Change The Status Quo And Rewrite The Narrative; Don’t Miss It!
Maximize The Opportunity!
