Otti Wants To Kill Himself
The not-genuine All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) governorship candidate in Abia, Dr Alex Otti, will not stop to amuse me. He first raised his faltering voice that his billboards in the state were being destroyed.
Now he is raising the same disjointed voice that “men in military uniform invaded his country home in Isiala Ngwa South on Tuesday, February 3, 2015, night on a suspicious mission”.
It is obvious that it was Otti who wanted to kill himself. This is a man who owes his donors heavily and had helped many corrupt politicians in Nigeria launder money when he was the Managing Director of Diamond Bank Plc.
He hijacked the APGA's governorship ticket in the state, yet claiming that he is an anti-corruption crusader. Such a man with such dubious tendencies would not know from where his death would come from.
According to a reliable source, who knows if it were Otti who procured the army uniforms and gave it to street urchins in order to continue his smearing campaign against the government of Governor Theodore Orji?
Otti has always been doing everything morally wrong in making sure that Governor Orji is looked at as a killer, but Abia people know better that the governor is genuine and will not associate with evil.
If the of Otti's soldiers are investigated, Nigerians will be shocked to find out who Otti is: A man who can stop at nothing in making sure that his desperate targets are achieved. The way he is behaving in Abia State is by cooking up stories that were meant for the marines and, dishes them out.
Read such foolishness from Otti: “Last (Tuesday) night, at 10:58 p.m., some men, numbering about 14 and dressed in military uniform, invaded my country home at Umuru Umuehim Nvosi in Isiala Ngwa South local government area of Abia State. At the time of the invasion, I was on my way back from a campaign tour of Ukwa East and Ukwa West local government areas of the state.
“The invaders forced their way into my compound and proceeded toward my main house. On being accosted by one of the brave men guarding my compound, the leader, who identified himself as an 'Army Captain', said they wanted to see me and confirm if there were army men in my compound. After some argument, the 'soldiers' left my compound, promising to come back.”
And you wonder that if the government was against or after Otti as he claimed, it would not know his in and out? Abia people should understand how earlier this man called Otti started with lies and vote wisely.
Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu is the answer comes February 28, 2015.
