Popular musician and
Ekpeye cultural ambassador, Chief (Mrs) Gift Eke, also known as Muma Gee, has declared that her ambition to seek elective position to represent the people of Abua/Odual -Ahoada East Federal Constituency is a mark of protest.
Muma Gee who is the flag-bearer of the Labour Party for the Abua Odual/Ahoada East Federal Constituency, made the declaration during an exclusive interview with The Tide at Ahaoada, yesterday.
The popular musical artist, said she was driven by the passionate cry and clarion call of her people to restore hope to them after several years of lack of effective representation and alienation of the people of the constituency by the present occupant of the seat, Hon Beti Apiafi of the Peoples Democratic Party.
According to Muma Gee, “the era of godfatherism in politics, where people ride on the political offices through easy concessions is over, adding that people have to work hard to earn the mandate of the people.
Muma Gee accused Hon Apiafi and her party, PDP of breaching the political agreement between the Abua Odual and Ahoada people, noting that the agreement must be restored to sustain the new relationship between the two political blocs that constitute the federal constituency.
Muma Gee listed youths and women empowerment and entrepreneurial development as her top development priority when elected into power, while calling on the people of the constituency to defend their votes during the forthcoming election.
