is reminiscent of a dramatic form which depicts the circumstances surrounding
the fall of despots. The state has been in dire need of such a dramatic
conflict, blighted by a long history of poor leadership.

Its last notable civilian governor remains the
late Samuel Onunaka Mbakwe, who ruled the old Imo
State comprising the present-day Imo State, Abia State
and parts of Ebonyi
State. Since that
seasoned administrator, whose concern for the down trodden earned him the
appellation of ‘weeping governor,’ left the saddle 35 years ago, the state has
been unable to fill the vacuum. Those who succeeded him all failed to display a
similar sense of responsibility, intellectual depth, and social empathy.
