top brass has already settled on a preferred
candidate for the coveted seat, leaving little
room for a competitive nomination contest.
Our moles intimate that the legislator has
allegedly quietly opened channels with a
fledgling political outfit, which he views as
a possible vehicle for his gubernatorial bid
should things fail to improve within his current party.

A SENIOR COUNTY official is said to be
operating in panic mode following a recent incident in the devolved unit. The official is said
to be weighing the possibility of relocating
from his current residence, allegedly convinced that sleuths are closing in on him. The

are being monitored and has become increasingly cautious about who he meets and
where. Handlers claim the anxiety has spilled

IS A POLITICO trying to discredit a recent
high-profile political function after receiving
a hostile reception at the event? Corridors

some opposition lawmakers claiming their
colleague who reportedly faced jeers and an
unfriendly crowd, has since embarked on a
campaign to allegedly portray the gathering
as a flop in a bid to settle political scores. The
MP was expecting a warm welcome but was
caught off-guard by the chilly reception. The
politico is now said to have gone flat out to
revenge in any way possible.

A JUNIOR STATE official is reportedly regretting the decision to leave a lucrative and
influential position for a government posting.
Corridors has learnt that the officer is increasingly frustrated by colleagues who allegedly
view them as an outsider encroaching on
their turf. Sources say some staff insist the
official’s mandate differs from theirs, creating
tension. The officer is said to have been
sidelined from key decisions, excluded from
information-sharing channels and, on occasion, left out of meetings and official trips.
A senior figure at the agency is reportedly
doing little to address the situation.
