Alichie Uchey (Born 14 Dec 1945) is a former Tiwuran general and President. He was in the office of the presidency from 1979 to 1986. He would be appointed by Reese Okparro Ndulu to be his successor due to Ndulu's failing health. His presidency oversaw several economic and social issues, particularly the 1980 Tiwuran Recession and the rising ethnic conflicts between the peoples of Tiwura. To avoid civil war, he held the country's first election since 1950 in 1986. This election would result in the victory of Kibwe Chipo, who would succeed Uchey in 1986.
Uchey was born in Fairmaidenton in 1945 to a wealthy class Mwo family.He would enter in the Tiwuran Armed Forces officer school in 1964. Here he would graduate at the top of his class, and would be assigned immediately to the command of General Reese Okparro Ndulu and Major General Echika Odetoyinbo. Within weeks of his deployment, the Bulamu War would begin and he would take command of the 5th Infantry Brigade. He would see little action until later in the war, when he fought in the Battle of Buholaux and the Battle of Nninji.
After the assassination of Obie Chinwe, he would join Reese Okparro Ndulu's faction of the TAF upon the beginning of the First Tiwuran Civil War. Here Uchey and Major General Odetoyinbo would play a major role during the offensive towards Omamiri. In 1988, following the defeat of Tobechukwu and Uchechi's forces, he would be promoted to major-general. In 1971, he would be promoted to General following the defeat of rebel forces and the end of the civil war. In 1972, he would become appointed member of the Tiwuran Military Council. Here he would gain influence and the trust of President Ndulu. In 1976, he would fight against insurgents in Gundayaland and gain essentially became Ndulu's third-in-command behind General Johnathan Mengue. In early 1979, Ndulu was diagnosed with tuberculosis and Uchey and other members of the Military Council decided that he was no longer fit to lead as his health problems mounted. Ndulu would agree to step down, as long as he appointed the next ruler. Ndulu would appoint Uchey to succeed him, and the Military Council agreed. On December 28, Ndulu would officially resign and Uchey would peacefully transition into the presidency.
Early on in his Presidency, Uchey faced several issues. The first issue was the rising insurgency in the north and west. These insurgents would begin to target foreigners within Tiwura. This issue would provoke a mass exodus of Euclean oil companies from the oil fields in the southeast. This pullout would take effect in 1980, and resulted in a drastic decrease in Tiwuran economic output as well as employment for the Mwo people. This economic issue would increase as more foreign investors left to take their businesses to other Coian countries. Severe cyclones and mass drought increased problems by 1982. The Tiwuran government under Uchey was unable to alleviate many of these issues, resulting in rising political extremism in the form of Ifeanyi Edochie and Kibwe Chipo. This would also cause an outburst in Tiwuran inter-ethnic violence, as extremists began pushing radical solutions to Tiwura's economic and social problems. In 1984, seeing an inevitable crisis facing him, Uchey would announce elections in 1984. He would immediatally ban any pan-Bahianist parties from running.
