By Dave Uma Are you aware that there are people who never believed or even imagined that certain things that had gone wrong in the past could still be changed for the better? Especially due to the conditional state of mind of an average electorate as a result of institutionalised maladministration that has forced the people to accept defeat at all times, with no ray of hope for the future full of uncertainties.

Abia State, Politics2023, Abia State, Next Level, Politics, Prince Ike Okorafor

The end products of the error described are embezzlement, mismanagement, poor bargaining, misrepresentation, attracting and abandoning of consistency projects, swimming in white elephant projects to steal money, debasement of clear cut objectives, O-Yes member…
