The Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi, has warned that his administration is ready to fight anyone who tries to truncate democracy in the state.
The governor issued the warning during the swearing in of a new caretaker Chairman of Ohaozara Local Government Area of the state, Mark Onu, on Wednesday. Umahi also warned that all democratic tenets will be observed in the state irrespective of “whose ox is gored”.
According to the governor, “I heard that some people zoned the chairmanship positions of our party, the PDP, to particular individuals in their areas, and this will not happen under this administration.
“Anybody who does not succeed in this regard and wants to fight us, we are ready to fight back from day one.
“Life is all about war, the person should let us know he is ready to fight and it will not be like the one we fought in the past… and God helped us to win.”The governor also declared that chairmanship candidates of the party would be those who would be ready to deviate from the norms of the past.
Umahi vowed to sack any council chairman who failed to honour any summon or invitation extended to him or her by the State House of Assembly.
He added, “Commissioners and local government chairmen complain that if their predecessors can construct mansions, they also should be allowed to construct mansions.
“Those days are gone, but they can still build the mansions by creating the avenues themselves.“I do not toy with the assembly so the chairmen should not, as I will sack anyone who shuns the summons the day the house writes to me on it.
“I will not release this month’s allocation to any LGA chairman who fails to recover the agricultural loans offered to farmers in their areas whom they stood surety for.”
