Beware Of Political Jobbers, Hallelujah Boys – HEDA Warns Soludo
- Says focus on Anambra agenda
BY EDMOND ODOK – A Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), the Human and Environmental Development Agenda (HEDA Resources Centre) has cautioned newly sworn-in Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State to beware of Political Jobbermen, sycophants, and Hallelujah boys whose stock-in-trade is to distract well-intended leaders.
The Centre also urged Governor Soludo to stay focused and refuse distraction in delivering the Anambra development agenda for the overall good of the people.
HEDA, which gave the governor thumbs-up following his inaugural speech, said in a statement delivered by its chairman, Mr. Olanrewaju Suraju, that despite professing much for the Anambra people, it was not Uhuru.
The statement said; “Governor Soludo must be careful of political Jobermen, sycophants and Hallelujah boys only good at distracting and well-intended leaders.
“To whom much is given, more is expected, and this time very much is expected from him, he must remember that the day of accountability will come.”
According to Suraju; “We have heard so many promises from the governor for his people, however, he must not be like some of his ostrich predecessors and co-governors who promised much but delivered little. He must display the will and commitments to fulfill his vows.”
On the current travails of immediate past Governor, Chief Willy Obiano, the HEDA Chairman urged the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to remain professional in its mandate delivery and ensure that everyone involved in any act of financial crimes, illicit wealth, abuse of office and other financial offences are brought to book.
He said; “Having arrested him (Obiano), EFCC should inform the public on reasons for his arrest and take necessary actions to bring to book everyone suspected to have committed any offense worth prosecuting.
“As a permanent enemy of oppression, suppression, and evil rule, we shall not leave any stone unturned to ensure that persons involved in any act targeted against the citizens in any form face the full wrath of the law.”
