The rumoured move by Miriam Onuoha to abandon the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) is not just disappointing, it is a glaring display of desperation, political inconsistency, and self-serving ambition.
Let’s be clear:
This is not about service. It is about survival.
When the political equation no longer favors her within APC, the sudden “interest” in another party exposes a lack of ideological grounding. It suggests that party loyalty was never about principles, but convenience.
Equity in Okigwe North is being openly disregarded.
With growing calls for Onuimo LGA to produce the next representative in the spirit of fairness, any attempt to bulldoze that arrangement is nothing short of political greed. It shows a willingness to suppress collective interest for personal gain.
The third-term obsession raises serious questions.
At a time when leaders across Nigeria respect term limits and step aside, the insistence on stretching political stay beyond what many consider reasonable reflects an unhealthy attachment to power.
Public office is not a personal inheritance.
Defection under pressure signals weakness, not strength.
Running to another platform at the first sign of resistance is not strategy, it is an admission of declining political relevance within one’s own base.
The people deserve better.
Okigwe North is not a political playground for endless ambition. The constituency deserves fresh ideas, inclusive representation, and leaders who understand when to step aside, not those who recycle themselves at all costs.
If these reports are anything to go by, then this moment defines more than just a political move—it exposes a troubling pattern: power first, people last.
History will not be kind to leaders who place personal ambition above equity, unity, and the long-term stability of their constituency. The people are watching and they are not blind to desperation masked as strategy.
Princess Miriam Onuoha Zukwanike!
