Abia Dep Chief of Staff, Don Ubani Finally Grading Access Road to His Community, Jubilates, Blasts Critics | #IgbereTV
What an irony of life! Those who have consistently mocked me for having no access road, even as I have been in Government for quite a reasonable length of time, I hope you would be prepared to laugh with me in the final analysis.
Believing that one would forget, following my appointment by Governor Okezie Ikpeazu as his Deputy Chief of Staff, I had executed an aggressive road grading from Ariaria Express Road Junction to Umuiku-Isi-Asa in 2020. I also opened up many feeder roads in Umuiku-Isi-Asa.
It was funny that some ill-bred critics had queried why I was excited about my rural road grading programme.
Of course, I did not bother myself descending to their bestial level of reasoning. A patriotic observer had called to inform me that the criticism was purely born out of envy. As he put it, none of those critics would point at any political appointee from their place(s) that had done for their people what I did and continue to do for my people. In response, I told him that at my age, level and exposure, I was and am immune to criticisms by erratic dejected irresponsible mental urchins who can not lay claim to any community service in their native places except to haul insults at their Elders.
In the picture below, my son, Chukwuka, a fourth-year Student of Computer Engineering, is busy making sure the grading is well delivered.
Who on Earth and in his right senses, except the Mkpurumiri Bomboys, will say that Sir Don Ubani is not Okwubunka of Asa Gburugburu and Oke Amadi Nd’Asa?
If you feel what I have done is not important, grade your road.
Sir Don Ubani is a former Commissioner for Information and Strategy in Abia State and writes from Asa.
