                       Gov. Uzodimma  By Ben AHANONU My attention and indeed that of numerous loyal appointees of the Shared Prosperity Administration of Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma, especially the Special Advisers (SAs) that were appointed earlier this year, have been drawn to the false, defamatory, loathsome and objectionable main story in the Friday, July 7, 2023 issue of the Trumpeta tabloid newspaper. Ordinarily, I would have ignored that poorly written story because it is clearly a mere fabrication by the opposition - People's Democratic Party (PDP) in conjunction with sworn enemies of the Shared Prosperity Administration but for the sake of unsuspecting Imo people, who might be misled by such grievous disinformation, I felt compelled to issue this rebuttal. One thing incontrovertible about the story is that it is as useless as trash, speculative posturing, part of an integrated smear campaign of the implodin...

  By Ben AHANONU  In the long and somehow checkered history of humanity on Earth, every great accomplishment started with a dream and when the Americans talk about "American Dream," it is about their desire to rule and subdue the world by mastering uncharted paths and creating something out of nothing through uncommon ingenuity.  That was how the United States of America became the first country in the world, to conceive and manufacture "atomic bomb," though with dangerous consequences but efficient enough to end a raging Second World War that wanted to exterminate normal human existence on Earth as the defeated Nazis and their allies like fascist Italy and militarist Japan then wanted to enslave humanity. It was the same "Dream," that landed the legendary astronaut Neil Armstrong on the Lunar surface. On July 20, 1969, Armstrong and Apollo 11 Lunar Module (LM) pilot Buzz Aldrin became the first human beings to land on the Moon, and the next day they spent...

  By Ben AHANONU  Upon assuming office as the Governor of Imo State, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma declared that he has a covenant with God Almighty to serve Imo people and deliver good governance underpinned by shared prosperity, world-class infrastructure and guided by deliberate intention to do what is right and good for the people. At any given forum he has repeated the avowal to use his position as Governor to serve God and that cannot be questioned. According to Uzodimma: " It is God that determines, who will be the Governor," and I cannot agree more, given the miraculous manner he emerged as the Governor, following the ill-fated 7-month attempt to steal his mandate by a group of wrong people and enemies of the masses with the garb of pretence in alliance with the Resident Electoral Commissioner then, who for reasons best known to him, decided to do the wrong thing by announcing, who did not win the election (and did not meet the requirements as stipulated by the ...
