Attn;…they killed Oyibo Chukwu, and they are now after Senator Kelvin Chukwu.
It has come to our notice an Open Letter signed by one Emmanuel Onovo and addressed to Distinguished Senator Kelvin Chukwu representing the good people of Enugu East Senatorial Zone.
Ordinarily, the office of Distinguished Senator Kelvin Chukwu wouldn’t have joined issues with the writer but for the sake of the reading public, we decided to put the record straight.
Our investigation revealed that the misguided letter was a calculated attempt to discredit the Distinguished Senator and distract us from the enthusiasm which the scheduled November 17th Thanksgiving and Empowerment program had attracted within and outside the senatorial zone.
We know those behind this onslaught and we shall in due time respond in equal measure.
We shall not allow any distraction to railroad our desire to touch the lives of our people through the Empowerment program scheduled to hold on Sunday.
What’s going on presently is about the politics of 2027. But unfortunately, the sponsors recruited Emmanuel Onovo popularly known as Tabansi, the chairman of Labour Party in Akegbe Ugwu Ward 2, to lead the distraction on Distinguished Senator Kelvin Chukwu.
The sponsor who has declared to contest for Senate in 2027 has been doing everything to incite the people of the zone against Senator Chukwu but in all his plots, God has continued to shame him.
It is unfortunate that Emmanuel Onovo has become the willing tool to lead the attacks.
For the records, Emmanuel Onovo who signed the Open Letter against Distinguished Senator Kelvin Chukwu is not the Chairman of Labour Party in Nkanu West LGA.
The chairman of Labour Party in Nkanu West LGA is Hon Ikechukwu Egbo from Amodu. Labour party is yet to do Local Government Congresses and it is unfortunate that a ward chairman would impersonate the office of the Local Government chairman of the party.
I am certain that those who are pushing him did not tell him the implications of impersonation.
It is laughable that someone would accuse the senator of abandoning the party members and those who worked for him during the election at a time he has planned a mega empowerment program to appreciate them.
This has raised our suspicion that some persons are bent in ensuring that the senator fails to enable them replace him in 2027.
But their plans have failed and will continue to fail.
Senator Chukwu can not be dragged into the permutations of 2027. He is busy trying to set a new record, change the narrative and put smiles on the faces of ndi Enugu east senatorial zone who gave him their mandate in 2023.
God gives power and those who are plotting to cause political crisis in the zone should desist. The political wind that gave a liberation in Enugu East Senatorial Zone came from God and no one can redirect its purpose except God thinks otherwise.
These attacks started the moment the office of the Senator issued a release informing ndi Enugu of the Thanksgiving and Empowerment program of Distinguished Senator Kelvin Chukwu.
When the date for the Empowerment program was announced, information came to us that Emmanuel Onovo who is now purporting himself to be the Chairman of Labour Party Nkanu West LGA was contacted by their sponsors.
The instruction handed over to him was to ensure the event do not hold.
The first action they took was announcing that all the ward chairmen in Nkanu West LGA would hold a meeting in Emmanuel Onovo’s House at Akegbe Ugwu on 17th November 2024, the same time and date we scheduled our empowerment programme.
The ward chairmen in Nkanu West LGA rejected their plot and informed us through their leaders that they would attend the empowerment program.
When that plot failed, one of the anchors made an online poll, asking people to rate through voting the performance of the 3 senators from Enugu state.
Their plan was to use the poll to discredit Senator Chukwu and thereafter issue a report on Saturday which would in their parochial thinking affect the smooth preparations to Empowerment program.
The plot with the online poll also failed, as the people who have seen the startling achievements of Senator Chukwu in one year voted massively and rated him high.
These evil minded enemies of good representation then forced Emmanuel Onovo who is largely uneducated to sign a prepared letter against Senator Chukwu.
We have it on good authority that the Open Letter was not written by Emmanuel Onovo. It was authored by the same person who published the online poll.
We took time to expose the plots of these detractors to enable the public especially the security agencies know that these people are up for something sinister against Senator Chukwu.
Putting under consideration the manner his elder brother, Barr Oyibo was brutally murdered and set ablaze, it is important that we document the recent incitement against Senator Chukwu for the authorities concerned to take appropriate actions.
Having failed in all their plans to discredit Senator Chukwu and discourage people from attending the Thanksgiving Mass and Empowerment program scheduled to hold on Sunday, 17th of November 2024, we are afraid that they may recruit criminals to attack the venue on Sunday.
We are therefore putting the security agencies on red alert on the activities of these detractors led by Emmanuel Onovo whose sponsors will be unmasked very soon.
To the general public, it is important to inform you that Senator Kelvin Chukwu is on course. He has set out to do things differently.
For the first time in the Senatorial Zone, he has attracted worthy projects aimed at lifting our people from poverty.
On Sunday, 17th November at the UNEC Stadium Enugu, over 2000 persons would be empowered. This is the first of its kind in Enugu East Senatorial Zone and that is why those who had enjoyed the exploitation of the people over the past years have ganged up to frustrate the good deeds of the senator.
It is …Putting The People First Agenda and no attempt to derail it would succeed.
Hon Eneh Victor Chigozie
Chief of Staff to Distinguished Senator Kelvin Chukwu
