ABSOLUTE FALSEHOOD: “Onyeojeoka’s Volte-face On Aviation Projects , By Gabriel Nsikak”

I write to debunk the absolute falsehood contained in the opinion piece “Onyeojeoka’s Volte-face On Aviation Projects, By Gabriel Nsikak” published in Prompt News online (http://www.promptnewsonline.com/onyeojeokas-volte-face-on-aviation-projects-by-gabriel-nsikak/#disqus_thread). Strikingly out of the ordinary Gabriel Nsikak has also been mailing his “self contradicting packaged lies” to other news organ as  “ Emmanuel Emeka, a public affairs analyst writing from Isuikuoto”

WHO OWNS THE BYLINE?

The article is clearly written by Gabriel  Nsikak , and curiously ended with “ Emmanuel Emeka, a public affairs analyst writing from Isuikuoto” the fact remains that Gabriel  Nsikak unwittingly exposed himself as a ghostwriter  trying to confuse readers that he is from  Isuikwuato. Can any Igbo person or an  Abian, make the following spelling mistake of well known names  particularly names from his community?

Can an Isuikwuato person make very obvious mistake in name of his local government (Isuikwuato) and very common name or the name of his House of Representative member (Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha)? Certainly no !

WHO IS GABRIEL NSIKAK/THE REAL REASON FOR HIS ARTICLE

For those who are very familiar with happening on-line and the traditional media, Gabriel Nsikak was the one commissioned by the former Minister of Aviation  Stella Oduah, to defend her  certificate and N255 million BMW armored  Cars Scam. Kindly click the link bellow to see his typical write up defending the scam:

Exposing The Masked Men so Afraid of Oduah

http://paparazzipress.com.ng/columns/exposing-the-masked-men-so-afraid-of-oduah-by-gabriel-nsikak

Gabriel Nsikak has been paid once again to discredit the oversight visit of the House of Representative Aviation Committee, that threatens to uncover a number of sleazy deals under the former Minister of Aviation Stella Oduah .

Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha is the chairman of the Aviation Committee leading this oversight function and has become the target of Gabriel Nsikak ,as a pre-emptive strategy to blackmail and discredit the constitution function that is being carried out. The outcome of the oversight is feared that it will not favour the monumental fraud and cover up in the aviation industry during the former minister tenure that was distrusted by her sudden sack. Readers will recall that Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha stood eyeball to eye ball ,challenging the monumental fraud in the Ministry of Aviation which was well reported by credible media including THISDAY click the link below to read one of her interviews:

HON. NKEIRUKA ONYEJEOCHA’S FATHERS BURIAL.

It is pathetic to note how Gabriel Nsikak in paragraph two of his ill-fated article, labour to befuddle the reading public that Aviation agencies had to build a house for Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha,   for his father’s burial to take place. Well it is pertinent to remind Gabriel Nsikak, that Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha father , was an Eze(King) that had not only houses but also a palace  and so never need any one to construct a house for him before his burial can take place . The towering and sprawling edifice on your way to the Umu-Nneochi Local Government Headquaters from Leru junction  is owned  by  the Onyejeocha’s and for nearly  two decade is yet to have a match in terms of size and beauty  . Widows, the less privilege and community members gather in the house periodically for empowerment from the Onyejeocha’s before their adventure into politics , a tradition they have sustained to this day.  It was in the same house the Orji Uzor Kalu ’s Second term consultative meeting for the LGA was hosted back then. So they  have always been wealthy before coming into the political arena . Today Hon. Onyejeocha has built many houses for widows  and the less privilege across  Isuikwuato and Umu-Nneochi  Local Government Area.

To further his campaign of calumny Gabriel Nsikak, allege that Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha father’s burial was a carnival. Let’s stop and ponder this for a while, an ordinary titled chief burial is usually a carnival not to talk of an Eze. Then come to think of it, an Eze who’s daughter enviable political career/position(s) will naturally congregate a carnival!. As a former local government chairman her former colleague will show up; As a former commissioner under Orji Uzor Kalu her former colleague will show up; As a federal House of Representative member nearly 300 of his colleague will grace the occasion in their regalia (assorted cars, wonderful attires etc) and most visitors will come with gift to celebrate the life and time of a man who’s daughter is politically relevant in the scheme of things. Is Gabriel Nsikak quarrelling with this?

VISIT TO MINISTRY OF AVIATION

Nevertheless, Gabriel Nsikak , also made stupefying attempt to criminalize  the visit of House representative  Committee on Aviation  as Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha’s endeavor, even when knowledgeable people  know that Oversight of the Executive is one of the statutory and cardinal functions of the legislature

During the visit it was reported  that  Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha in one of her oversight speeches  queried Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) excess N4billion Budgetary Provision (http://www.nairaland.com/1774355/hon-nkeiruka-onyejeocha-queries-faan) . The visit is yielding its own dividend of democracy= tackling corruption in Aviation ministry and agencies!  

AVIATION MASTER PLAN

Legislative Oversight is a monitoring and evolution tool that will look at what is working; what is not working; and what can be done to make things work better. The case of Legislative oversight to Ministry of Aviation is not therefore different. This is what brings the Aviation Master Plan under scrutiny and to say the least no master plan is sacrosanct. It is even more urgent and needful to do that for Ministry of Aviation with the propensity and history for frivolous spending for example the case of N225 million spent on needless limousine by former minister; will it be wrong to probe ministry’s spending periodically?

Gabriel Nsikak , should bury his head in shame as one of the bad eggs that is presenting the social media in bad light , by promoting deliberate false hood and trying to use factious name  for nefarious purposes in the social media. It is clear to all that there cannot be Gabriel Nsikak writing and at the same time answering another name “ Emmanuel Emeka, a public affairs analyst writing from Isuikuoto” . It is very clear that the God Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha serves  made Gabriel Nsikak, expose himself and the self contradicting lies he trying hard to promote without Hon. Nkeiruka Onyejeocha responding!
