For a man, patiently lying in wait is what he stands
for; where it swings him is hinged on the power of consistency. A risk
the feeble-minded may never want to take, which has since giving birth
to a character that has continued to multiply prostitution in every
facet of our political standing in this part of the world even as it
keeps breeding insincerity, disloyalty, over-ambitiousness and hate!
Much can be said about Honorable Emeka Nwajiuba.
Holding sacrosanct his beliefs, the Ehime/Mbano born Lawyer, and a one-time
Member of the Federal House of Representatives. Honorable Nwaijuba holds
firm his ideologies, though not on the pathway of rigidity. His dreams,
which are inspired and founded on the strength of what he stands for.
He follows his heart-led principles and ideals to its logical end. Walking
through challenges, pains and joy, adamantly Emeka’s patience carries
him through, it works out somehow!
After the victory of the APC Presidential candidate,
General Muhammad Buhari, at the recently concluded elections in Nigeria.
Emeka’s umuezeala Ehime/Mbano country home became a mecca of some
sort. Imo virtually celebrated with Emeka, from all its corners, men
and women of different classes and types all trooped to felicitate with
a man that they have always seen and known as the only true face and
voice of Buhari, now President-elect, that they have always known.
Over so many years, as a committed follower of Buhari,
Honorable Nwaijuba kept intact the Buhari legacy, while personally spear-heading
all of Buhari’s political interest in Imo state. ANPP, CPC etc. He
always brought his strengths into the Buhari campaigns. Becoming a master
in the art of supporting Buhari; in defeat he stood and remained consistent,
dauntless, even mockeries nor attempts to woo him by PDP friends or
foes couldn’t stop the determination of this man to propagate the
Buhari agenda, which later became a movement!
In the campaigns ahead of the 2015 Presidential polls
in Nigeria. Political pundits in Imo state, swinging an unseen pendulum,
gave it to President Goodluck Jonathan, but Emeka in his usual tenacity,
like a lone voice in the desert, not only was he resolute. He took the
Buhari campaign to some higher level, far above the comprehension of
an APC-controlled Imo state. His campaigns were technical, personal
and blunt! He knew what he wanted, and pursued it with vigor and passion.
He mobilized the immobile! Empowered the weak to realize the Nigerian
dream of a true manifestation of “change”. A passion he shares with
the President-elect. And closely walking with him this far, together
they finally realize a dream come true; the Nigerian dream and a man’s
belief!
Maybe easier than said; in Imo state, it was more
than an election. It was made a gladiators arena for power play, anyone
could get hurt, just the PDP way! But Honorable Emeka Nwajiuba’s unhidden
passion and contributions towards the Buhari project made a meaningful
difference. Fearless, for him nothing could stop this drive. And nothing
stopped it! Nothing stopped the realization of a man’s
belief to the Buhari course!
IKEH.
