“I am going to be the party leader soon. Therefore, please advise our party members and supporters to cast their vote for me only without bothering to mark their preference for any other candidate at the upcoming general poll.” 

A secretarial one of a main political party had given this precise instruction to the party organizers in the district whom he had summoned to his political office on his home turf the other day.   

This secretarial one, a popular singer, was raised to secretarial status only a few months ago and his ambitions had soared so high during this brief period, he has already made plans to take over the party’s leadership, they say.
