On media expository report on the secrets of the stampede to contest the gubernatorial seat in 2023, Egede Lawrence writes.
There are obvious secrets that can't be resisted, because they are too beautiful to brush away with any lack of deep interest.
There are treasures in secrets, which can't be closed and the eyes can't afford to look upon them with avoidable interest.
Too much of the beauty to see and explore for the heartbeat to exploit, and ignite the appetite.
Too much of the interest in the allure, which has the strength to drag many into a competition.
A competition with many hands on deck to be there come rain come shine, because nobody is born not to love what is good.
Both the good and the bad are interested in the bargain to get the treasures, before others can be there to congest the chance.
The chance is one with many legs thronging the congested ground with political chances, looking for one table to sit in command of others to stand up in envy. There are treasures for the heart to desire them in love.
I mean that in all said and done the treasures are a real beauty, which the heart can't escape.
The Scriptures contained the major appeal to the heart of men and women, who cannot wag their heads in refusal of the urge to get the treasures.
The bible said in the book of the Proverbs chapter 21 verse 20, "There is a treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise." This is a point.
Then the biblical book of Saint Matthew said in chapter 6 verse 21, "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." This makes the point.
Ebonyi State is a treasure tree which all competitive hearts are focused, to gain recognition for a single share amongst many.
Governor Umahi who in the past was in PDP, but now in APC has combined the two experiences to bring out the treasures of beauty that cause the stampede by every political party wanting the Guber seat.
Apart from the different official political parties registering the interest of contestants in the Guber race towards 2023, there is more to it than meet the eye not known, but not so hidden.
Governor Umahi might not have known that he is the principal secret cause, behind the rush to occupy the Guber seat in 2023 by many desirous contestants.
He didn't know that the hot seat is so attractive to overlook with ignominy, without regretting it.
He didn't know that since he was able to gather himself up to start building Ebonyi State to such enviable standards, he is to expect this kind of rush in competition, and in congestion for the race to the Guber seat. The allure is wonderfully high.
Ordinarily when we look at the environments of Ebonyi State, nobody who believes he or she can contest the position of the governor will dismiss the urge.
But I am still going to give you one unavoidable reason which the competing Aspirants won't like to miss. It is outstanding.
In this world that we look for good things, nobody will want to lose the opportunity to be part of it. It is not possible.
Everyone whose mentality is very sound can't see any good thing and overlook it outrightly.
Let me point out a particular treasure having the standards, with very high quality decor in and out of treasurable artifices that nobody can't disregard as a Paradise on earth. Let me say it properly and let people know.
It is the great new Government House of Ebonyi State, where all the Aspirants are focused.
It is located at the Ochudo City with Edifices of the first order, in the Continent of Africa.
No wonder every Guber race member in Ebonyi State can't afford to step down for others.
To God is the glory forever.
