DEPUTY SPEAKER, OZOEMENA TIGHT FIST.


He may be pardoned for certain reasons. Atleast, this is the first time he is getting a political position. If not for the APGA revolution orchestrated by the coming of Owelle Rochas Anayo Okorocha, people like him would not have smelt any political office. POPULAR SIDE is talking about the Deputy Speaker of the Imo State House of Assembly, Pharmacist Donatus Ozoemena, who represents Oru West state constituency in the House of Assembly. The number two person in Imo House has no welfare package in his agenda, no wonder most of his aide, and drivers have deserted him. POPULAR SIDE learnt that the mans hand is so “tight” and those working with him always lament. Despite his handsome monthly intake as Deputy Speaker, the Mgbidi – born lawmaker does not extend it to his “boys”. Most of the “boys” who started with him as PA’s and Drivers have dumped him for good. They prefer to be on their own than toil day and night without nothing to show for it. Initially he was given his security operatives and drivers a specific amount for feeding and inconveniences before he reduced it and even stopped. POPULAR SIDE want Ozoemena to emulate Speaker Ben Uwajumogu who knows how to play the welfare game and make the “boys” happy. The Deputy Speaker should remember the popular saying “chop alone, die alone,” 2015 is around the corner.
