Charles Idahosa aka Charly Tempo has been holding away in the political leadership of Uhunmwode Local Government Area, Edo State.
His tactics are as crude as they are mundane. It’s a combination of blackmail, name dropping, intimidation, peddling lies and boastful ness.
Despite being a semi illiterate, his early voyage in the UK in the early 70s where he had the privilege of becoming friends with the likes of Peter Uwaibi and some other con guys has give him the skills to perfect his criminal tactics of hoodwinking unsuspecting politicians has have risen in Uhunmwode into believing that he is a “messiah”, “saint ” whereas the truth is that he is a fit candidate for jail for petty stealing and obtaining by false pretenses.
Same tactics he has employed to recruit a one time senior prefect turn pineapple farmer in Evbuohuan, Napoleon Agbama and has managed to promote him twice as Local Government Chairman twice.
On both occasions Charly has been the defacto chairman. Even now ,he is , otherwise how do you explain the situation where only Charly and Agbama knows the Revenue of the Local government Area, with councillors and other appointees in the dark. Charley is obviously the Slave Master, Agbama and the rest of Uhunmwode politicians particularly in the APC are the slaves.
All it takes charly to continue to hold away is to be a sychophant of any incumbent Governor. Grant regular press interviews in support of the Governor, and that is it. He is serviced regularly for this and he keeps his supporters busy with folktales and stories that never existed all in a bid to paint a larger than life picture of Charles Idahosa. A villain. His politics is purely the hunger games! Give him money from government house even if nothing is done in Uhunmwode Local Government Area, it doesn’t matter. If you happen to be with him and his phones rings he puts it on Speaker for his visitors to know and hear who is calling, particularly if it’s the Governor, who
calls him ” senior kaligbona”- a nickname he was known for in his school days as one of the deadliest marijuana smokers. His excitement will be boundless. His first request will he ” wake and see Governor, you have abandoned me ooo to hunger…..”
He is not know to attend rallies, or campaigns, he leads from his bedroom. Dodge inside his house to eat early morning amala and assorted while his hypnotized followers who normally kill around his house very early in the morning will be in hunger except some political office holders( not Agbama)who are magnanimous may offer the unfortunate jobbers some life line.
Napoleon Agbama, an admixture of treachery, deceit and incompetence finds favour in the manipulative trap of Charles Idahosa. He is not know to have executed any project since he became Chairman. Once the councillors dare to ask questions, they are summoned by the Sanhedrin” Charles Idahosa ”
Uhumwode Local Government has remained in the dark but for some federal presence attracted by a former federal Lawmaker. But you cannot make pepper soup with the blood of a fowl.
Many observers have blamed the elites in Uhunmwode Local Government Area for the perpetuation of this gang of RIP offs. Where are the Solomon Edebiris from Isi? where is Isaiah Osifo? where is Samson Osagie? Ativie, where are you? Where are the Ehigiamusoes ? Where are the Imafidons, the Alaris, Obamogies, David Osifo, Omorotionmwans, Washington Osifo, Justin Omoruyi, Odeh , Oyegue, RKO, etc etc?
Uhunmwode Local Government Area should hold you guys responsible for the state of affairs.
You stand akinbo to watch Uhunmwode become the farm of Agbama and Charles Idahosa.
Posterity will judge all of you.
Charly Tempo deserves a place in prison. Why? Through the Council he remodelled his aunt’s house in Ehor and got the council to buy a generator there. Then Agbama was Caretaker
Chairman. About same time he established a farm where he takes the cows he receives as Leader to for feeding. The council fenced the land and bought a generator there.
He shares Agbama security vote with Agbama on a ratio of 50:50. After all, he is Slave Master and Agbama slave!!
He obtains political power seekers money, vehicles, air tickets to London and estacodes. He lives off the people. He has no identifiable means of livelihood, no store, no shop, no office. He claims to run a company Charles Tempo that cannot pass due process test for contracts but through his adroit manoeuvres he secures contracts from the state government, many of which he collects money and dont execute. Haba!!! One man? Anyway, many days for the thief, one day for the owner. The Time Should Be Now!!!
