FEDERAL CONSTITUENCY IN 2019 - KEMKA SOLOMON IBEJI
He made the declaration while addressing the crew from different media outfits in Abuja following the consideration of his imminent honour of INTERNATIONAL YOUNG LEADERSHIP AWARD by the National Watch Newspaper in Abuja.
While fielding questions from the Reuters, Fabulousdailies.blospot.com press muted a growing rumour in Ahiazu/Ezinihitte Mbaise Federal Constituency that he does not have enough money to prosecute the election in 2019. The correspondent asked if he could clear the air on that and he agreed to do so with an alluring smile.
In his response, he told the press that "he is actually the richest among all the candidates of all the political parties for the Ahiazu/Ezinihitte Mbaise Federal Constituency in 2019. According to him, what the rumour mongers are obviously asking from him is that he becomes desperate like their principals. He said that as a very young and growing entrepreneur, he has achieved more than the rest in the contest with him owing to his achievements at his age in intellectual wealth, meticulous appreciation of the facts and problems of the community and his philosophical sagacity. He made it known to all that almost all the rest candidates had finished their secondary school while he was still a toddler. Nevertheless, he understands and knows the duties, functions and obligations of the legislator, the processes and procedures of legislature more than all of them. And he is emphatically and resoundingly the most prepared for the Federal House in 2019.
KEMKA SOLOMON IBEJI went ahead to assure the people of Ahiazu/Ezinihitte Mbaise Federal constituency of his commitment to their welfare in Education, Health care, Agriculture, Technology and general Empowerment. According to his statement;
"I have come to serve and my duty is to present myself which I have done and not to do that desperately. As the richest among the candidates and the most morally enlightened, I will show class and difference in virtue. It is for this reason that I will engage our electorate with the refinements of moderation and education. I shall be flagging off my campaign in the coming weeks and the difference will be prominent. Our team will spend money for the election but it will not be on the illicit and immoral precincts. We will not engage
in vote buying of any kind. We will not engage in any kind of intimidation of our people and we will not be desperate for anything. We shall obey the choice and decision of our people. Our expenses will focus on voter education and enlightenment. We will be exposing the gamut of the legislature to the people and presenting my humble self to them. It will be a remarkable difference and a landmark success at last."
KEMKA vowed that he will deliver on all his campaign promises to the people of Ahiazu/Ezinihitte Mbaise Federal constituency if elected. He however stated that it takes two to tango and the victory must be mutual. For him, if the victory must be mutual, the people must be ready to sacrifice for it. It is only in so doing that the victory will be for everyone.
He asked the reason why a candidate should try to feign what he or she is not to be elected if not desperation.
Pressing on the impending award, he replied that he is considering receiving the award because of the reasons adduced to It. He said that the Publishers of NATIONAL WATCH NEWSPAPER have officially written and paid him courtesy call on the award. In their interactions, he made it known to them that he had turned down many awards within the last few months because of his questions on merit. He usually will ask why he is deemed worthy of the award.
National Watch Newspaper team surprised him by confirming that they have been following his development as a young and growing leader. His development as a student activist back in his University days, through the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), his days in the banking industry, his postgraduate days in University of Ibadan and his gradual but continuous growth as burgeoning captain of industry.
Throughout these years and engagements, KEMKA has remained and exhibited the mores and virtues of excellent leadership. Even in his chosen business area, he has remained a name that depicts and deposits exemplary leadership guise and charisma.
Also, KEMKA SOLOMON IBEJI crafted a philosophical fulcrum of the LEAGUE OF BLACKS as a tool to fighting racism across the world. Following the footsteps of his fellow great thinkers and philosophers like Martin Luther King Jr, Malcolm X, the African Nationalists as Kwameh Nkrumah of Ghana, Julius Nyerere of Tanzania, Leopold Senghor of Senegal, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe of Nigeria and a host of others.
KEMKA SOLOMON IBEJI recalled the influence of the history of philosophy and African philosophy on his dream for the Black Race. He could remember a day that marked his freedom from the white, western and colonial overloardship as he cried while reading history of the world from the point of view of F. W. Hegel.
KEMKA acquiesced to his succour in the writings of his own Mbaise brothers and intellectual fathers like Rev. Fr. Professor Innocent I. Onyewuenyi and Professor T. Uzodinma Nwala. Reading such minds and others like Franz Fannon's Wretched of the Earth, the Stolen Legacy of G. M. James, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa by Walter Rodney and lots more. The memories of Rev. Professor NSS Iwe gave an intellectual life changing gift in a classic written by Prof. Onyewuenyi - The African Origin of Greek Philosophy.
KEMKA S. IBEJI declared his love for the Black race after finding the true world history in his readings and discovering the truth that Africans are not after all savages, barbarians and cannibals. He rose to found the League of Blacks as a means of teaching the young and the next generation of Africans the true history of the world. He wrote the framework of the system and situated Africa as the real cradle of world civilization and should be honoured as such.
Now again, his foray into secular politics has also introduced new horizons and a fresh vista in the political hemisphere and lexicon of Nigerian leadership at large. He has vowed to redeem the image of Africa in his legislative trudge.
KEMKA SOLOMON IBEJI is a stunch believer of African development from within. He believes that the laws of a people should reflect the people deriving from their norms, value systems and way of life. One could clearly see the Africanness in KEMKA and his readiness to shake the world from the National Assembly as he has set out with a Bill to propose for the recognition of African Traditional Marriage by the statutes.
For the foregoing reasons and many more from this young and prolific sage and scholar, National Watch Newspaper have found him worthy of the INTERNATIONAL YOUNG LEADERSHIP AWARD.
His acceptance of this award was indeed phenomenal as he bowed with tears rolling down his eyes. "The purgation of emotions is that of mixed feelings between lack of fulfillment, exploitation, distortion of history, reminiscence, memories of works left for poverty of Africa
and somewhat bid to rise again" he submitted.
KEMKA SOLOMON IBEJI promised to return to the field of knowledge through his legislation in the legislature if the people of Ahiazu/Ezinihitte Mbaise Federal Constituency gives him their mandate come 2019.
