Deceptive Political Theory in Delta State.
The political climate in Delta State over the years have been on the basis of what you bring to the table in terms of your contributions to the success or victory of the Political Party.
Since 1998 the sharing of dividends of democratic exploits have been falsely programmed to benefit only other tribes and political zones in the state except Ndokwa Nation. It got totally out of hand during the Okowa Ifeanyi’s Administration , that what ever little project or programme that is extended to Ndokwa Land is largely seen as Undeserved Help. So it has gradually and tactically been designed around vote sharing in terms of quantum of VOTES generated or cast in an election to make the party win that election.
The questionable deceptive Political Theory that if they subtract our votes cast during an election, the party would have still won the election, therefore your votes didn’t count during the election. That has been the sole basis of underdevelopment of Ndokwa Nation. Simply put, with or without our votes, they the Frontline political class outside Ndokwa Nation will win. It means our votes does not contribute to the collective success of the party . Why will someone think of subtracting our votes to see if without us they can win? It means those who propargated such evil theories are Ndokwa Enemies. Why do they believe that rigging, ballot stealing and result manipulations are the main ingredients of political success in their areas but strive to limit such in our area to defend their evil Political Theory ?
I have pondered over the baseless satanic Political Theory sold to all our Ndokwa Political Class to accept, hold and leave with that we are not contributing anything to warrant any political patronage and dividends.
First , victory , winning, whether landslide or with little margin is victory. One vote difference can send one man to the National Assembly.
Similarly a party’s victory is victory .
They equally failed to accept that the quantum of money called Federal Allocation that they share according to their deceptive political theory comes largely from Ndokwa Nation. This is unacceptable . We must fight back because Ex Governor Okowa added Ika as an oil producing Local Government because of only one small oil well. Today they rank and get all , even bigger than Ndokwa Nation. For just the small oil well, they got the Board Chairman of NDDC. Ndokwa with more than twenty oil wells do not occupy any position at NDDC.
They deny our Nation with their Satanic Political theory but when our youths get angry and blow up pipelines, National Gride and block roads ,they mobilize to bring us down .they accuse us of being ungreatfull and point to the Kwale Beneku Bridge over Ase Creek as even too much for the meager votes we churned out for the Party . The dualization of Kwale main road -Umusadege Road will be too much for our poor Votes, the tarring of Kwale Township roads where the oil and gas heavy duty trucks impact heavily on is too much for consideration. Yet a 59 billion naira flyover will be constructed at Agbor with derivation funds.
To justify their theory, they heavily police our areas, particularly Kwale, Ogume, Ashaka, Emu, Obiaruku, Umutu ,etc to scare away electorates from voting .at the end the will show us statistics.Haba!
Next I will exray the results they use and show our contributions to the development of the State and the Nation.
