Two days ago, Mr Jarigbe Agom Jarigbe, the Honourable Member representing Ogoja/Yala Federal Constituency at the House of Representatives while declaring publicly that he won't be running for Senate come the 2019 general elections stated inter alia that he relates with people as human beings not because of political affiliations NegroidHaven can say. He further said that he would not start a fight with a politician just because he is APC especially when such has not provoked him to a duel.
In the thread tagged 'Senatorial Race 2019' the Honourable member observed that it wasn't his money that was buying his goodwill but divine support.
His words, 'I wish to please state unequivocally that I don't have an ambition to run for Senate in 2019.
'For those who think that my relationship with some members of APC is wrong, I want to also state that I relate with people as humans should relate and I will not start a fight like a mad man with people who are not fighting me. Some of you say I am a financier of Mr A or Mr B because they don't attack me on Facebook. I wake up to see things on Facebook and I only establish contacts with the people after I read their posts.
'Let's come to terms with the fact that money doesn't buy goodwill. If the divine support I enjoy, was predicated on cash flow, I wouldn't be in contention.
The lovable Honourable Member may have been addressing some youthful centres in the APC who are not comfortable with the goodwill he enjoys among some APC folks. Concerning these lots, JAJ described them as being infantile and inconsequential particularly noting that such may not have what to contribute to the political equation when the need arises:
'Some infantile politicians want to make their self acclaimed political opponents, enemies of a government, they have no clue to how it all happened. How many of you can deliver when the time comes?
'Reap the benefits you are enjoying and let us be, because you might not be a factor when the time comes cos you definitely will not have anything to bring to the table. Just an admonition…'
These APC guys may have a penchant for belligerence, methinks. Even in times of peace, dem deh look for trouble. Hmmm!
