… describes Elumelu as a failure
Youths of Adonta in Aniocha south Local Government Area of Delta State, on Friday, refused entrance into the community to the member representing Aniocha/Oshimili Federal Constituency at the House of Representatives, Mr Ndudi Elumelu, over poor performance.
The angry youths barricaded the entrance to the community, preventing Elumelu and his convoy from entering the community to campaign.
The PUNCH reports that a few months ago, the youths of Oko kingdom in Oshimili South and Idumu-oOgo in Aniocha North, respectively, also chased Elumelu away for poor performance.
The Oko kingdom, which also frowned at his poor representation, lamented the lack of basic amenities, especially roads, despite being closer to Asaba.
Saturday PUNCH gathered that the lawmaker with his campaign team went to the community to hold a rally when the youth barricaded the road with wood, chanting “Elumelu will not enter our community, go back.
One of the aggrieved youths who identified himself as Ameachi Uwa, described Elumelu as a selfish lawmaker.
“Elumelu is a failure, he is not even ashamed to come to our community seeking for votes again. He does not deserve our votes again,” he said.
“He failed to deliver dividend of democracy to the people for about 20 years that we have voted for him. He is seeking for our votes for the fourth term with nothing to show for the third term he has gone.
“No road, no water, electricity and other amenities in our community for the 24 of PDP government in the state and now he’s coming again to ask for our vote.
“Elumelu has been tested but not trusted, therefore, he does not deserve our votes and we will not allow him to enter our community”.
It would be recall that The Story, had earlier reported that visibly miffed youths in Adonte, an agrarian Community in Aniocha south local government area of Delta State, chased away the Minority Leader of the House of Representatives, Ndudi Elumelu, from entry the community to campaign over alleged poor performance over the years.
