There are signs that Senator Chimaroke Nnamani’s father-son relationship with his state governor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, has deteriorated.
Nnamani characterized Ugwuanyi as an epitome of humiliation in a series of tweets sent early Sunday morning for losing his voting booth twice in the just ended elections.
He did not stop there, but also implicated Barr. Peter Mbah, the incoming governor of Enugu State, in the chain of betrayal.

Senator Nnamani, a former state governor, reportedly increased his onslaught on Ugwuanyi after losing the Enugu East senatorial district seat to Kelvin Chukwu of the Labour Party, LP.
He accused Ugwuanyi of being to fault for his defeat.
Remember that Ugwuanyi brought Nnamani back into the political spotlight, which he has previously acknowledged and congratulated his governor for.
Many criticized Ugwuanyi’s decision, believing that Nnamani, whose Ebeano dynasty was demolished by his successor, Barr. Sullivan Chime, should not be reinstated.
In one of his campaign visits, Nnamani recalled how Ugwuanyi pushed him back into the political spotlight and assured his return to the Senate.
“It is because of the mandate given to me that I am here. When I came to campaign here, I did not know that it would take 15 years for me to be here again.

“For me, if every door is closed, one looks for a key. When darkness is everywhere, nobody knows who will bring the light and open the door.
“It is Ifeanyi Nwa Ugwuanyi, Udulekenyi 1 of Orba, that brought the light, the key and opened the door.
“He (Ugwuanyi) is not from Nkanu; he is from Udenu. This showed that indeed, “Nwanne Di na mba”, Nnamani had said.
He later on announced that Ugwuanyi was now his leader and that of the Ebeano political dynasty.
However, Nnamani had been groaning since Kelvin Chukwu defeated him, aiming missiles against Ugwuanyi.
Below are some of his tweets on Sunday morning, alleging betrayal by Ugwuanyi:
“Peter MBA’s betrayal is one more betrayal too many. I have difficulty processing it. I must confess #Chimaroke.”
Obi To Nnamani, “I am Shocked You Label Me An ethnic And Religious Bigot”
“And those who keep quiet in the face of injustice will reap it’s (sic) whirlwind! #Chimaroke.”
“Betrayal in all things have (sic) the same Universal ending!”
“A Governor who looses (sic) his polling booth twice is an epitome of SHAME! #Chimaroke.”
”Limitless boundaries of Indoctrination! A new paradigm! Election rigging without structure! Just transferring filtered polling results figures #Chimaroke.”
“Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; / Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, / The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere / The ceremony of innocence is drowned; / The best lack all conviction, while the worst / Are full of passionate intensity.” WB Yeats #Chimaroke.”

Previously, Chimaroke claimed that the Enugu PDP and his Ebeano political organization were openly conspiring against him, with his suspension allegedly funded by the state governor to prevent him from becoming Senate President.
