A ward co-ordinator for the “change 2011” and Joy 2015 political pressure groups in Okigwe Senatorial zone, Comrade Ike Ijeoma, has described Hon (Dr.) Acho Ihim, who is one of the strongest contenders for the post of Speaker of Imo State House of Assembly, as most qualified and very deserving of the office.
In a press release which he personally signed and made available to Newsmen, Comr. Ijeoma averred that Acho Ihim is a round peg in a round hole and fit, proper and appropriate at this point in time for the office of the Speaker.
He noted that just as destiny of every creature remains in the hand of God Almighty, it is also expedient that the destiny of any man cannot be obliterated or debarred by backbiters, sycophancy, self centeredness and egocentrical behavioural attitude of another. Citing Prophet Jeremiah who stated in the Bible he said, “before you were conceived, God knew and he had deposited what you are in you”. He then said thus, of Acho Ihim’s place in history and why he must be the next Speaker of Imo State House of Assembly”, because when God says YES, nothing says No!
Continuing, Comr. Ijeoma explained that it is in the interest of Imo State for Acho Ihim to become Speaker of the Imo State House of Assembly in 2015. Not done with his complimentary statement on Chief Acho Ihim, he added that it is an unavoidable fact that Hon. Acho Ihim the Umualumoke Okigwe LGA born educationist, is the best for the Speakership because he is a divine mandate having been re-elected against the zoning structure of Okigwe, hence he is the only ranking member from Okigwe zone.
Chief Ihim in his words, “has a bundle of experience, fold and unfold”, is well organized, articulate, caring, philanthropic, accommodating, and of course, accessible.
“As his traditional title, Onwa, implies, Achio Ihim is generally accepted, hence he has come to be the cynosure of all eyes delivered in this auspicious period, to lead the legislature for more sustainable democracy where separation of powers is greatly engendered adding that “the leaves dance when there is good breeze and conducive atmosphere”. This is likened to Imolites and the legislature with Chief Acho Ihim receiving the mantle of Speakership in the next State House of Assembly.
He therefore affirmed that since Acho Ihim is loved and very much on ground in the Imo political leadership, he will certainly take Imo to a greater height in the scheme of making good laws for excellent governance, accountability and transparency in the overall conduct of government affairs.
