Issele-Uku, the administrative headquarters of Aniocha north local government area of Delta State, was today agog, as a chief of the community, who is also an alleged political thug, Chief David Kanyinebi Siunoje a.k.a Mama (Olikeze) was beaten to a pulp for attempting to snatch ballot box at Omado and Adams Primary Schools polling units.
News had it that he tried compromising some voters in his own polling unit at Omado Primary School which angered the youths who had to beat him up.
Not done with his purported criminal tendencies, he moved to another location at Adams Primary School polling unit, where he attempted snatching the ballot box and BVAS, but he was caught and beaten like a common criminal.
An eyewitness who narrated the incident, said he was later let go because of his traditional status as a chief in Issele-Uku.
However, some elders of the community have been speaking on the matter, calling it a brazen show of shame on the part of the embattled chief.
Others who claimed anonymity had called on the Traditional Ruler of the community, HRM Agbogidi Obi Nduka to immediately strip him of his Chieftaincy Title for bringing the coveted name of the town to disrepute.
Evidence has it that apart from being a dubious character who is on hide and seek for duping a client N7 million, allegedly for visa racket, he is also indebted to an Ubulu man to the tune of N27 million.
Our source had further hinted that the said Ubulu man had come to report Mama to the Palace, threatening to invoke some powerful deity on him over the fraud perpetrated against him (Ubulu man).
Mama as he is fondly called, recently returned from Canada where he ran to with his family after allegedly stealing from the government of Senator Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa, Governor of Delta State, who appointed him as PA.
He returned from Canada to advance his alleged fraudulent activities by joining the All Progressives Congress (APC) as a political jobber on a mission to duping more victims.
