Enugu 2015: Aide flays media campaign against Ekweremadu


The office of the Deputy President of the Senate says its attention has been drawn to a recent magazine report, which sole, but failed purpose, is to bring the person of the Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu to disrepute.

In a press statement signed by Mr. Uche Anichukwu, the Special Adviser (Media) to Ekweremdau, he said, “We are not surprised that after months of fruitless search, the peddlers of the pre-packaged fallacies and libel only ended up with an obscure and financially distressed medium, as every professionally inclined and credible medium turned down both their cocktail of lies and mouth-watering offers.

“We make bold to say that it is all about 2015 and we know where it is coming from. While more of such attacks are expected as we count down to the electoral processes, we wish to state that the said report and every other subsequent attempts to discredit the person of the Deputy President of the Senate or the numerous and laudable development projects he attracted to his constituency and Enugu State in general will continue to fail.

“This is so because while you may deceive the blind that there is no oil in the soup, you cannot deceive him as to whether or not there is salt in it. The legacies of the Deputy President of the Senate’s representation in terms of socio-economic infrastructural development, human capital development, job creation, and political empowerment are as clear as daylight.

“We therefore urge our teeming supporters and admirers to treat such attacks and malicious publications as mere antics of political desperados”.

He added that, “Senator Ike Ekweremadu remains focused on delivering on the mandate handed him by the good people of Enugu West Senatorial District as well as Nigerians, who through their representatives, considered him worthy to be unanimously elected the Deputy President of the Senate for two consecutive times.

“He certainly will not join issues with those in sinking political ship grasping at straws and resorting to frantic mischief. The Deputy President of the Senate is not bothered in any way because power ultimately belongs to God and He gives to whomever he pleases. What will be will be”.
