A SEASONED POLITICAL bigwig is said to have gone on his
knees pleading with the appointing authority not to bypass his region in the
latest shake-up at a key state institution. The position fell vacant after its former
occupant dramatically fell out with the top brass, triggering a swift
replacement process. Our mole confides that the visibly uneasy politico raced
to the boss after getting wind that the lucrative post was going to another
region, allegedly warning that
denying his region the seat would leave him exposed and politically vulnerable.
The man supposedly fears the
anti-establishment wave that's sweeping his region.
