Between Okowa and Ibori: Fallacies and Fiction - ITREALMS

Commentary@ITREALMS ... making leadership SENSE with digital news!

It is another election era and merchants of falsehood and political fallacies have crawled out of their holes to stink up the air with their toxic tales. One of such noxious fallacies is that Governor Ifeanyi Okowa is Chief James Ibori’s political godson. How rancid and insipid can some tales be? And how illogical, even mischievous, can hawkers of such stories be?

But if such unfounded spin is to cause a rift between Okowa and Ibori, they got it all wrong. They need to work harder and think much deeper, at least to sound a bit believable, as they undertake their ill-will voyage to sow seed of discord between these two friends that stick closer than brothers.

The returnee, Chief James Onanefe Ibori at the weekend joined the Tweeps on Twitter as his twitter handle opens @ChiefIbori, reports ITRealms.

Chief Ibori, according to information available to ITRealms, opened his first-ever Twitter account at about 8. 00 am on Sunday morning, which a profile indicating that he is a politician, former Governor of Delta State (1999-2007), dad, philanthropist and business man.

ITRealms also gathered that as at the time of filing this report, has over 1, 610 followers within 24 hours of the handle coming up.

In addition, @ChiefIbori, has three tweets obviously dedicated to his people and kind of welcome he received at the weekend when he arrived home from United Kingdom after serving a jail term.

He equally follows 9 other Tweeps including Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar, Presidency Nigeria and APC Nigeria, Prof Yemi Osinbajo @ProfOsinbajo, Muhammadu Buhari @MBuhari, Official PDP Nigeria @OfficialPDPNig and TheCable @thecableng. 

One of the fore tweets @ChiefIbori reads, “Good morning Nigerians. #myfirstTweet.”

While the second tweet came as a video clip as he was cheered by his community at Oghara on Saturday afternoon on arrival.

Hear him, “I’m excited to unite with my people. The strength of any politician lies in hands of his followers.”

However, @ChiefIbori went on third tweet which reads “The energy yesterday was electrifying and intimidating. I’m grateful.”

Industry analysts informed ITRealms that those Chief Ibori is following on the first day shows where his interest lies. 

Although ITRealms reports it has been a mixed reaction thereafter with his core political followers eulogising him, others call him names over how he managed the Delta State during his tenure.
