 TO THE MAN, JOE AGI. THE RIGHT TIME TO REPAY GOOD FOR GOOD.  Sometimes back in year 2010, one of the toughest primaries was held to pick the Chairmanship candidate to fly the ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for Yala Local Government Council.  Yala was polarized with two powerful political factions. On one side, was Hon Gabe Ugor (Yache Ward) as aspirant and Mr. Godwin Odama (Gabu Ward) on the second divide. The magnitude of the preparation for the primary election was so tensed that the entire Yala LGA was frozen below zero degrees. It wouldn't be necessary to mention the names of the political heavyweights supporting these aspirants then but of importance, was simply the fear of uncertainty and anticipated violence that gripped Yala LGA.

The upper chamber of Legislation , in which each state has three representatives regardless of population size, with 109 senators in total is influential chamber. Senators serve four-year terms and their mandate is often as a consequence of the political influence of the constituents. Through the electoral process, they seek the political supports and votes of their constituents to represent them in the Red Chambers.  The constituent is the “Voters” in a legislative district.
