Ifeanyi Ubah: Anambra's patron saint of corruption




Anonymous writes from Awka

Ifeanyi Ubah of recent has been basking in the euphoria of his own 'perceived' glory. A man whom was selected by the few of the recent past to tactically knock Nigeria and its economy into coma. I have been somewhat unprivileged to have come across this man with seven lives. As a person with the magical fraud wand, he has a lot of people to his beck and call; even me, yes at a time, I was under his spell.

In most climes of the world where 'white' is the shinning clean, this man would have long been incarcerated, forgotten and his ill wealth shared amongst the poorest of the people; but here, the highly placed, remains untouchable. We keep robbing peter here and we still owe paul (not the Psquares). Not very long ago, this man was rightly accused with damning facts of how he and other few selected 'cabals' (as they put it then) feasted on our cake, they looted us dry with great alacrity, they told us to our face that we are cowards and nothing can be done, how right they were; We are bloody cowards.

We all could remember how his case with facts - backed up were thrown into the gutters by the one whom we now celebrate as MR " No Nigerian's blood is worth my ambition." Mr dollar-man even came on Live National TV audience and boasted to us how he can drag the FG, her Ministries and even a certain ''common mechanic/auto dealer'' to the court if they wouldn't let him eat his loot in peace; what a SHAME.. I even heard he kept true to his promise, and the cowards chickened out.

We as a united-Nation seem to forget so soon once our wounds begins to heal. We are quick to forget how we came about the wounds in the first place. I don't forget about deadly injuries given to me by people; better people like the Chinese too don't forget. Injure their economy, and you will go down for it - no matter how long it may take.

Ifeanyi Ubah is corruption personified. He is 'rightly' investing our gains into his sports Village in his home town and we clap, even Obiano clapped. The other day, my amiable governor went on a working visit to the sports village in Nnewi, I even heard the duo ate Ugba and palmwine. I am not against the sports edifice being erected by some persons, or group of individuals; what am after is to get justice served. This same man gets millions of dollars from banks, turns around to taunt the banks through various legal means, after which such loans will be written off as bad debts. I know so well that his media Aide in the person of Onyia will run out here like a rabid dog to denounce and deny such claims; I am waiting.

The other day, this perceived guru without formal education as a foundation came again - live on on national TV and told us how if he can be allowed to negotiate with the FG, he will bring down the price of the green (dollars) for us, I became soo sad how Bubu will even allow this man talk after all he's done to us; renovating a room for him in Kuje should have been the better option. The current fight against corruption would have been genuinely seen by the populace as being real if this kind of treasury looters were made to vomit their loot and sanctioned; well, the fight is not genuine anyway.

In a country where people who steal billions are given the VIP treatments and those that takes 'change' given the jungle treatment; it is almost a norm and the ideal thing to steal. It won't surprise you to know that this same Ifeanyi Ubah has no known political post in Nigeria, yet, he moves around with DSS Agents as his guards. If you don't know, those are meant for high profile political office holders. I will advise the Commander-in-Chief to as a matter of urgency withdraw those Agents assigned to him and other people like him. Nigeria should be sanitized and such things shouldn't be condoned.

The publisher of The Authority Newspaper has deceived and hoodwinked soo many past leaders into doing his biddings, he is the cat with seven lives. He is on his sixth and guess what, after this, his cup will be up.
