Onanuga and the Surprise from Joe Igbokwe
Valentine Obienyem
Yesterday, Mr. Bayo Onanuga claimed that Mr. Peter Obi was behind the planned protest. My joy upon hearing this was that it did not come from Chief Joe Igbokwe. Ordinarily, he would have loved to break such news as a way of reassuring them of his continued loyalty.
On the surface, Bayo is a great journalist when measured by his long-standing visibility in the field. However, the wise ones tell us that a man’s greatness is ideally judged by how he reacts in the little moments of his life.

Bayo has continually shown us that he was overrated all along. He is becoming a victim of his own undoing. They now make us view with misgiving those who pretend to be democrats.
Come to think of it, why would Obi plan a protest? Show me any of his speeches or releases where Obi calls out anyone by name. He consistently addresses issues and offers advice.
Linking him to any planned protest is an attempt to divert attention from the real issues. They are simply revealing the secret of their guild: seeking to stop Obi at all costs. Who in Nigeria today does not know that there is hunger in the land? As it is said, “a hungry man is an angry man.” If you do not desire unrest, fight the enemy of the people—hunger—and leave Obi alone.
