First time since the creation of Esan North East LGA, Uzea to produce Executive Chairman.
Uromi 20th May, 2023.
From the way the politics of Esan North East is evolving now in preparation for the PDP Primaries, there is a sure likelihood and certainty that justice and fairness will prevail and Uzea the second Kingdom in the LGA will produce an executive chairman for the first time since the creation of the LGA from the defunct Agbazilo LGA 32 years ago.
Urban Scoop Media gathered from public opinion among sampled respondents from Uromi and Uzea that judging from the political history of the LGA, Uzea Kingdom is the right Constituency of the LGA to produce the Executive Chairman considering the fact that Uromi has dominated the political history of the LGA since inception undermining the fact that Esan North East LGA is made up of only two Kingdoms to wit: Uromi and Uzea. “Two people cannot sleep together in one bed and one will be looking to occupy the center. For natural justice of equity and fairness to reign supreme, an Uzea person should be supported to occupy the position now”, a stakeholder from Uromi who did not want his name in print told Urban Scoop Media during survey sampling.
And in terms of those who delivered their wards and units to the PDP in face of militating circumstances in the last election, an Uzea man Barr. (Pharm) Mike Egbiremolen Egbemekhe stands out among the contenders. He does not only stand out as the most educated among the contenders (with degrees in Pharmacy and Law), he is also well known philanthropist and grassroot mobilizer who has affected many lives.
This is a clarion call on the party leaders and stakeholders to chose right to balance power allocation in the LGA to further entrench fairness and equity in the fastest developing LGA in Edo State after Benin City.
