Relationship Between Owelle And Madumere Ordained By God

By Ikechuku Gilbert

About three months ago, rumour making the rounds was that Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha had given his Deputy, Prince Eze Madumere 90 days to either resign or face impeachment. We have waited relentlessly for the expiration said date to usher in the D-Day.

Today, One is amazed that Imo House of Assembly is yet to serve Prince Madumere notice of summon to come and defend charges of gross misconduct leveled against him. We have neither heard about the service of impeachment notice on Imo Deputy Governor.Meanwhile, another fiction well written in a prose style had also postulated that Prince Madumere was in soup over his power drunkenness.

He was said to have begun setting up political structure to contest 2015 guber election having not clarified from his boss, The Governor of Imo State. The story continued that even the First Lady, Nneoma Nkechi Okorocha got so furious that she called Prince Madumere an ingrate. Too many Hypothesis by many analytical deficient minds all to run down Prince Eze Madumere.

Like Tuface Idibia would say, if nobody talks about you then you are nobody. There must be something about the Prince of Mbieri. He has become the most talked about and the most visible Deputy Governor in Nigeria.

“Whatever that has been ordained by the hands of the Almighty, no human intent can thwart it”. These are divine words from Shakespeare, I believe through the inspiration of a positive spirit that holistically define our inter-relationship and existence guiding us through life's constructive path of progress. It reveals the divinity behind every positive relationship, needed to put in place the will of God for his people.

So much of fictional stories have been told. One, it was said by a good for nothing paper, TRUMPETA , known for its legendary lies that Madumere had fallen out of favor from his boss over what they said was his setting of structure to run for 2015 gubernatorial election. In another fiction, the script was that Imo Deputy Governor was described a wicked man and as an ingrate for having forgotten in a hurry about the man who made him. In some quarters, he is said to be a stumbling block to some individuals thereby eliciting anger from the powers that be.

Ask them their sources, they tell you that is what they say and who are those people? They are ghost blabbers if not gossips.

The strength of every relationship political or otherwise lies in certain enduring features; “understanding, patience, sacrifice and loyalty”. These components can be found overflowing and yielding positive results in the leadership relationship between the Imo state Governor, His Excellency Owelle Rochas Okorocha and his Deputy, His Excellency Prince Eze Madumere. A relationship that spanned over many years and passing through the test of time from a pre-Government era to their current era in power.

The two have seen it all, and surpassed it all, just like father and son, they make a formidable leadership team. The toast of many, and envy to so many, especially with the Governor's achievement thus far. No wonder, they have attracted so many backlashes from the opposition, jealousy!

The latest onslaught against this developmental team of Owelle and Madumere is quite unfortunate. Having exhausted all avenues to disparage the ongoing development fun in Imo, these political no-goods have resorted to using the instrument of propaganda as they attempt to inject disharmony into Owelle's camp, propagating stories of disaffection between Owelle and his Deputy, laughable indeed.

If you are hoping to engage in a lesson of loyalty, I suggest you see the Deputy Governor of Imo state, Prince Eze Madumere, he understands it. For a man who deputizes a people-oriented Governor like Owelle Rochas Okorocha, what reason will he have to go against him? I just wonder.

Everything about this man, Prince Eze Madumere, depicts Rochas Okorocha regardless the load of responsibilities entrusted on him by his boss, his simplicity and humility continues to speak Rochas, and breaths Rochas! On his part, His Excellency Rochas Okorocha, who happens to be a construction genius, a builder cum development architect sees his deputy as a dependable partner in progress just as Prince Eze Madumere never fails to appreciate his tutelage under a Governor in the capacity of Owelle Rochas Okorocha, “a leader is a leader if he gives birth to leaders”.

I call on these mischievous contractors of evil to redirect their energies to something more productive rather than waste it on frivolous political adventures that will only end up inviting unhealthy judgments on their descendants.

Long live Imo State.
