After prolonged agitation, resulting in the collapsing of NBA Bwari into opening the floodgate to members to collect nomination free, members are falling over themselves to submit their form today.
Historically, Cradle Bar is notorious for having many offices uncontested for. The Chairman elect, after swearing in, co-opts stooges to fill the posts, thereby maintaining an army of loyalists that will give him majority vote on any issue at Exco meeting. But with this free nomination form, we are expecting to see the office of Provost, being contested.
As at today, only one candidate had collected form for the post of Chairman. The office of the Chairman, is zoned to the North.
For the office of the Vice Chairman, 3 persons collected form.
This is the first time in the history of Cradle Bar that the office of the Vice Chairman, will have this number of interested parties.
There is muted rumble as to which zone, will take it. Conventionally, when the Chairman, is zoned to the North, the Vice Chairman’s office is zoned to the South West.
Will it still hold sway in this election or are some people bent on truncating an age long convention that had maintained peace in Cradle Bar?
The Office of the Secretary, is zoned to the South East. So far, two people have collected form. It will be war of the sexes but I am told that there is no sex involved but a desire to teach a lesson in loyalty.
Loyalty as defined by those who claim to own the winning structure in the branch and are sponsoring a candidate against their own, for his refusal to step down at Easter meeting called to harmonize their list.
Another showdown looming like that of office of the Secretary, is the office of Assistant Secretary. Conventionally, Assistant positions, are reserved for young lawyers ages 1-7, to learn the ropes. 3 persons have shown interest. At the time of filing this, only two have submitted their forms.
As they submit their forms today, we at Kubwaexpress, will x-ray each candidate, his/her weakness and strength and publish, for members of the Cradle Bar to choose who will rock their crib for the next 2 years.
We will also x-ray the expired administration of Monday Ajeh to find out if it fulfilled its campaign promises or failed woefully.
Deadline; NBA Bwari Aspirants Hustle To Submit Forms
