The Central Issue: “Satanic Manipulations”

Senator Dino Melaye has indelibly imprinted the words “Satanic Manipulations,” into the collective consciousness of Nigerians because the phrase concisely and succinctly encapsulates the fiendishly unscrupulous control some state governors and their cronies have on the people.
The words, satanic manipulations bring to mind the treacherous and underhanded manner in which Mr. Godswill Akpabio handles the affairs of the state of Akwa Ibom.
The Mr. Akpabio’s overt ambition is to run for the presidency of Nigeria. To effect that desire, Akpabio needed to befriend members of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, and continue ruling Akwa Ibom by proxy; and do all these at the expenses of Akwa Ibom State.  Thus, Akpabio dismissed Mr. Umana Okon Umana as SSG of Akwa Ibom and brought in Udom Emmanuel, who had no experience with governmental affairs and then embarked on a smoke and mirror Town-Hall political tour to select the next governor of Akwa Ibom even though Mr. Udom Emmanuel had already been assured of Akwa Ibom governorship; and conducted the Town-Hall Meetings as if PDP was a state owned political party.  After mortgaging the state of Akwa Ibom to PDP, Akpabio was made chairman, PDP Governors and eventually, the Senate Minority Leader.  Unfortunately for Akpabio, PDP is in search of a new direction, which does not include Akpabio’s desire to run for presidency.  Accordingly, Akpabio ordered Mr., Udom Emmanuel to organize a PDP convention in Port-Harcourt at the expense of Akwa Ibom and tabled that the Mr. Ali Modu Sheriff be removed as the National Chairman of PDP.
In the interim, the people are mesmerized with the guile of “Satanic Manipulations” using glitters such as government sponsored Guinness World Book of Records winning choir, and a 62 billion Naira stadium in a state where 80% are unemployed.

This is a fiendish control to achieve an overarching ambition.

    Senator Ben Murray-Bruce is a trash-talking buffoon who does not know the difference between his elbows and his ass-hole!
    Thanks to Goodluck Jonathan, Murray-Bruce used Bayelsa’s fund to build his personal empire, the Silverbird Group. As a PDP member, Murray-Bruce and his type holds the reigns of production and have decided to punish the people for not returning a South-South man to power and disingenuously blame it on Buhari.
    PDP chieftains stole over $30 billion in Nigeria’s Foreign Reserves (Form $60 billion to $30 billion), but Murray-Bruce is ready to adulterate that fact.
    The irony is that Murray-Bruce, a first-year senator calls the finance minister a neophyte.
    Murray-Bruce, the masses do care that President Buhari recovered some of the looted funds, and your buddies may soon be heading to jail. A filth such as Murray-Bruce sponsors a pack of children, the Niger Delta Avengers to wreak havoc on Nigeria’s source of income - Murray-Bruce shame on you for being such a heartless monster!
