…..Another Magic: Transforming a hoodlum to a ‘movie star’
….The ‘Nasa connection
…The CUPP, Ikenga mystery

It is public knowledge that the scary revelation on the sinister plot to hijack our 2023 elections, made by the CUPP spokesman, Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere thoroughly traumatized Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo state and his handlers.
Sleepless nights and emergency Exco and caucus meetings became a regular in the last few days.
Desperate to control the extent of damage, he unleashed his horde of media necromancers. In less than two days, they convened four press conferences, achieving nothing!
They paid notable political jobbers to go on live television programmes to try to mitigate their emergency, all to no avail!
Meetings were held in a ‘thousand places’ from Imo to Abuja without a single redeeming brainwave!
The blemish stuck and refused to give.
It became obvious that Uzodinma’s platoon of media aides are overpaid! Almost paid for nothing! Instead of redirecting the spotlight, they drew all the hostile fire to their principal with one gaffe after another.
Everyone in the Imo state government house suddenly became a media expert because they wanted to remediate the Governor’s trauma.
Just like the video (https://youtu.be/xFUy4Ipbm_0)
they got the Governor to fund to discredit the 20th August OBIdient rally in Owerri, through his SSA Special Duties, Mazi Chinasa Nwaneri, in which one known alcoholic from Owerri Municipal who claimed his name was ‘Chima’ opened the drain in his face to say that he is a member of the OBIdient Movement and that they hired people from neighbouring states to boost the first OBIdient rally in Owerri, a dastardly lie, spun to discredit a resoundingly successful rally.
Desperate to end or change the conversation around the Omuma Magic, the Imo State Government, this Sunday morning of all days, and courtesy of Chinasa Nwaneri’s School of Videography, produced and circulated another true-to-type, and ofcourse odious video flick in which a notorious hoodlum in Umuonyeche village in Owerri Municipal Council, was paid and schooled to say that he has suddenly become a homosexual and that Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere is his partner. Just to get back at the CUPP spokesman!
The urchin who ofcourse, didn’t say his name, didn’t also realize that he is old enough to be Ikenga’s father.
He said Ikenga was his schoolmate, but everyone knows ‘Abacha’ or ‘Sharp-Sharp’ as he is variously called in the Umuonyeche area, is a school dropout!
Umuonyeche is the second home of Chinasa Nwaneri and he can procure these hoodlums three-a-penny!
The video work is so poor, anybody who has lived long in Owerri doesn’t need too much investigative effort to dismantle the shoddy hatchet job.
Ofcourse, because Sharp-Sharp didn’t get enough education, except for what he picked up here and there from the streets, he still needed tutors to help him act his role, even while the video was rolling. His tutors were heard in the video prompting him with what to say. Pathetic!
Anybody who wants to find out the identity and pastimes of the so-called ‘Chima’ and Sharp-Sharp, go to Umuonyeche village or the areas around Douglas by Rotibi Street where they normally hang out. From around 5pm, the chances are that you may run into Sharp-Sharp looking for cheap prey.
I would not have loved to talk about a person who inspires nothing positive like Sharp-Sharp except for the fact that he allowed himself to be used for such a dirty prank, despite all he has suffered in recent times, which are too pitiable to reference.
Anyway, like they say, most career criminals hardly turn a new leaf. Wash a pig, dress a pig, it will still go back to the mud.
If you ask around Umuonyeche and Umuodu villages, all in Owerri Municipal, people around there will easily tell you that Sharp-Sharp who wilfully called himself a homosexual, is actually NOT a homosexual, but an EX-CONVICT!
It is common knowledge in the villages that he was busted by SARS operatives during that famous sting operation to clean up Douglas Road and quell the activities of robbers and street urchins terrorizing traders in the market area.
Sharp-Sharp was eventually tried and remanded in the Awaiting Trial section of the Owerri Prison. Somehow, he was released. Nobody knows how till date.
It didn’t take too long before he was arrested again in November 2021 for theft. The matter didn’t get to court, rumours around the community, though unconfirmed, suggest that Chinasa intervened and he came home, which is why he could do anything for Chinasa, especially when there is a little money to motivate him!
His Late father wasn’t any better. Ndaa Joe, was also an ex-convict who lived out his twilight days in regret. ,
If you ply that Emmanuel College road regularly, the mad lady that loiter around the junction that leads to Okorocha’s inland roads, is said to be one of his sisters. ENTRACO officials had sometime in the past forced her out of that junction because of the heap of refuse and knick-knacks she accumulates around there. She stayed briefly along Bank Road with her loads, but she is back there right now!
There is so much to say, so that every Umuonyeche man and handlers of Uzodinma, will know that Sharp-Sharp is not hidden to the public, we know him and his family and he was a very wrong choice for Uzodinma’s hatchet job! (Owu Onye apari kpa!)
So to say the least, Uzodinma’s trauma response to the shocking CUPP exposition, was shoddy, unintelligent, amateurish and outrightly dumb!
Imo people and indeed, Nigerians will not allow Uzodinma to change the conversation from the outrageous plot to pad and compromise Nigeria’s voters register to this “Akuko mama Ngozi na ndi yard” his goons are circulating on the social media!
They can even conjure more videos, who cares!
This time, perhaps, they can hire a retired harlot and pay her to say that Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere raped her when she was a virgin! Apari kugbuokwa ha there!
Uzodinma is unfortunate to have a crowd of non-professionals around him and these subjective gibberish and timid stunts of his are totally incapable of shifting Nigerians and particularly, the Nigerian youths from their objective focus on the 2023 elections!
We therefore urge the CUPP and indeed, Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere to absolutely refrain from reacting or responding to Uzodinma’s cat-calls and keep their eyes fixed on the ball because 2023 is about the destiny of a people and not just about Imo state or Uzodinma’s governorship election. By far, NO!
The plot is to distract CUPP, Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere and indeed patriotic Nigerians from the issues that matter, to a cooked up, inconsequential hogwash that won’t even convince a kindergarten toddler.
It was a poor try!
Ultimately, Nigerians will take back their states and their country, no matter how black the conspiracy against our electoral system may be. Truth, is our weapon.
We shall prevail!
