To recast this organic growth as “panic” within the ranks of the APC is not only misleading; it is an insult to the intelligence of Urhobo people who can distinguish propaganda from performance.…

Over the years, I have come across numerous screeds designed to insult and impugn Chief Ogboru’s character, but none have come close to the level of intellectual poverty and logical bankruptcy that your submission represents.
