We in the Caterpillar Movement Campaign Organisation have overtime, consciously refrained from joining issues with contenders and their barking dogs because we consider it unnecessary to mudsling when we’re confident of victory. This is why we have repeatedly paid deaf ears to distracting noises from people that are pained by the massive goodwill and support enjoyed by our capacity and competent principal. Our attention has once again been drawn to an unfortunate vituperation and vitriolic against the esteemed personality of Distinguished Senator Professor Sandy Ojang Onor and his highly cerebral media team as well as undaunted teeming supporters, authored by a team of spineless and faceless hirelings and given to their hapless hatchet man, Prince Zebis to append his name. But like Al-Capone posited in the book–Mafia Manager, “He who answers for another, pays the Bills.”
First, we commend the spineless writers of the junk article full of the need to impress rather than communicate, for acknowledging the intellectual prowess of the Caterpillar Media Team and the fact that the Caterpillar Media by all standards, surpass the motley of intellectually debased entities parading as Gershom Bassey’s media team, both in content, style and audience. This is as a result of the consistency we have built since the senatorial journey of our Principal in 2018 when those parading today as Media aides to Senator Gershom Bassey were still wallowing in absolute obscurity.
As a team, we commiserate and deeply sympathize with the helpless Prince Zebis for being used by a coarse conglomerate of intellectually lazy adults squeezed into Senator Gershom Bassey’s hurriedly put together Media Team whose usefulness starts and ends with copying, pasting and sharing of propaganda, mendacious and senseless vituperation against Senator Sandy Ojang Onor and sharing of blur Selfie Pictures taken by their Principal in the Red Chambers, where he ought to be concentrating on the serious business of legislation. For us, we understand that you cannot beat a child mercilessly and still deny him the privilege of shedding tears–so we understand their songs of Lamentation.
It is without a doubt that, the gubernatorial ambition of Senator Sandy Ojang Onor has shaken off Political docility and entitlement mentality in the Politics of our dear state. It has not only decimated the zoning argument, it has also given it a befitting funeral. Therefore, the fear of the embattled Consensus candidate of the All Progressives Congress by Senator Gershom Bassey is rather a function of his incompetence than it is of fact, and we cannot help him out of his self inflicted dilemma even as he expects the People’s Democratic Party to throw the governorship ticket on his laps when even as a two term Senator in his Senatorial District, he was sufficiently and overwhelmingly rejected by his people and the leadership for an Arthur Jarvis that has neither been a Councilor, Chairman nor State or National Assembly member. This goes to show how unpopular Senator Gershom Bassey is.
His recent strategy is not unconnected to the decision of the PDP National, officially proclaiming that there would be no zoning for its Presidency, he fears the implication of this on State governorship. Gershom Bassey and his co-travellers should therefore stop parading their fear of healthy competition and obvious geo-ethnic biases through the facade of a non-existent zoning formula and meet us in the field. More worrisome is the fact that Gershom Bassey and his infantile media handlers that circulated news of them sweeping all the ad-hoc delegates in the just concluded ward congresses, are today crying foul and looking for a soft landing. So, where are the phantom ad-hoc delegates they claimed to have bountifully harvested? Isn’t it crystal clear that Gershom Bassey and his team are obviously suffering from “Atychiphobia” an intense fear of failure.
On the claim that our Principal, Distinguished Senator Prof Sandy Ojang Onor controls only Etung Local Government Area and lacks the capacity to win in other Local Government Areas. We are tempted to ask, between Senator Sandy Onor who according to Gershom Bassey’s minions controls Etung Local Government Area and Gershom Bassey who had only one vote in a consensus meeting that took place in his own backyard–Calabar South, and was mercilessly beaten by his constituents at Transcorp Hotels in 2018 for poor performance, who is more qualified to be our Party’s flag bearer?
A team like theirs, popular only for its gutter politics should bear it in mind that we are very prepared to throw rocks when they throw sands and still beat them silly in the field and we are not joking about it.
