IFEANYI UBAH AT IT AGAIN!

To watchers of happenings in the nation’s political landscape, Ifeanyi Uba is one name that is synonymous with controversy. In fact, to put it mildly, the Capital Oil boss soared high the wings of controversy when he lavished millions of naira on his 40th birthday some years back.

Recall that he was allegedly involved in a N21billion involving the boss of Coscahris Motors, Cosmas Maduka. When the deal turned awry, Maduka cried foul, alleging that he was duped by the young businessman.

Typical of a man who likes to court controversy, he was forced to go underground after his Anambra State governorship ambition was truncated.

However, Ubah seems to have plotted another strategy to remain in our political consciousness, as he claimed to be the sole financier of the controversial Transformation Agenda of Nigeria (TAN). In his calculations, this is the best platform to worm his way into the heart of President Goodluck Jonathan, after his romance with the Labour Party.

But just when you thought that he had sloughed his thread-bare garb of controversy, Ubah is reported to have courted another controversy. This time, he is alleged to be owing some of the participants ferried to the venue of the solidarity march for the secondterm ambition of President Goodluck Jonathan. He and some other TAN officials were said to have been held hostage recently at the venue of one of the rallies by unpaid participants for many hours.
