Minister of Labour and Employment, Sen. Chris Ngige, has warned the Anambra people to be careful in the choice of candidate in the Nov. 6 governorship election in the state, describing it as a choice between freedom and chains.
This is as the minister expressed gratitude to the Anambra state governor, Chief Willie Obiano for the truth-telling tribute he sent on his 69th birthday.
A statement from Sen. Ngige Media Office in Abuja, insisted that Ngige was however not flattered by the rediscovery, since no amount of suppression could kill the truth, noting that “the innate characteristics of truth which are constancy and irrepressibility will continue to frustrate every onslaught. Truth never fails. It can only be suppressed but only for a while and not forever.”
According to the statement “The 34 months renaissance of Senator Chris Ngige as Anambra Governor is indelibly etched in the minds and sub-consciousness of the people and it is very unlikely official lies can ever suppress it.
“Ndi-Anambra have been faced with this strange official suppression of their history. Thus, the tribute from our Governor is an escape of suppressed official facts from the highest state quarters.
“For the first time, a successor government acknowledged Ngige as the architect of the modern Anambra, thereby smashing the over a decade long billow of lies from the chimney of mischief at the Government House, Awka.
