Miracle Tyna Onem, former councillor representing Ogbia Ward II, Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa State, has found her groove again. The politician, who aspired to become a lawmaker in Ogbia Constituency II, Bayelsa State during the 2023 General election in Nigeria had her dream cut short in a car accident that kept her hospitalised for some time.
Onem had announced her intention to contest in the House of Assembly election in the state on the platform of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, but unfortunately got involved in a near-fatal accident within her constituency. Due to the serious injuries she sustained, she had to drop out of the race and her political career was put on hold since then.
Tynarated, as she is fondly called, was appointed by the Bayelsa State governor, Douye Diri, a few weeks ago as the Vice-Chairperson of the Caretaker Committee of Ogbia Ward 2, Ogbia Local Government, Bayelsa State. Her inauguration took place last week and Onem has pledged to ensure a smooth transition and take- over by the next chairman of the LGA.
