A founding member of the Ndokwa Amnesty Programme inclusion struggle, Hon. Chukwutem Nwogor has condemned the attitude of the Ukwuani LGA APC Chairman, Mr. David Ochonogor.
Hon. Nwogor made the disclosure in reaction to the protest that is being done by Mr. David Ochonogor and Mr. Lucky Onyah accusing him of influencing the beneficiaries of the programme in Ukwuani Chapter through party (PDP) sentiments.
Hon. Nwogor disclosed that the Amnesty Programme does not belong to any political party but for the people and as such will be improper to bring into it political sentiments.
He said that at first, Mr. David Ochonogor was coopted into the struggle by him alongside his colleagues and as well as other youth leaders who are not into politics in other to ensure fairness and oneness.
He disclosed that the document which was used in writing to the Amnesty Office for Ukwuani Chapter was co-signed by Mr. David Ochonogor (Ukwuani LGA APC Chairman) a list that was compiled by both of them, in which he also included his sibling as a beneficiary.
He called on the general public to verify his claim at the Amnesty Office through under the leadership of Ndokwa Liberation Front. Because the list and document was signed by Mr. David Ochonogor and himself, Hon. Chukwutem Nwogor.
He further disclosed that Mr. David Ochonogor was asked to nominate Names (the lion share) in which he nominated his APC faithfuls, all they allowed for the sake of peace and oneness.
Hon Nwogor said that it is true that everyone cannot belong to one political party in Nigeria, which is the beauty of democracy, but Mr. David Ochonogor should remember that he remains his leader in the struggle and that he should stand by truth and justice and stop acting as a pencil in the hands of his paymasters, because integrity they say is golden.
He urged him to reflect on how they struggled alongside Mr. Ambrose (who later on was a victim of circumstances) before they achieved their aim. And how also the NNU President at a time paid for their hotel bill for a night at Abuja, in support of their struggle.
He however, advised Mr. Ochonogor and Mr. Lucky Onyah to note that nobody climbs through backbiting, because nemesis will be inevitable.
He said that instead of them agitating for a programme that's already on because of greed and sentiment, they should use the opportunity and their good office to start fighting the unemployment problem in Ndokwa Nation, by lobbying at the various multi international companies to make sure they meet up with the local content.
He advised Mr. Lucky Onyah to change his ways, organise himself and do the needful for NNU Youths that he is representing and stop playing games with the progress of Ndokwa Youths, because his office is not self seeking or self enriching.
Conclusively, he advised Ndokwa Youths to disregard the protest that is being carried out by Mr. David Ochonogor and Mr. Lucky Onyah. And commended Mr. Ambrose for standing by the truth irrespective of their little differences in ideology.
