According to him, the new administration in Imo State had employed security agents, who would disguise as journalists to do the job.

The MASSOB leader further recalled that on 25th October 2005, the former Governor of Imo state, Chief Achike Udenwa allegedly acting on instruction for the former President Olusegun Obasanjo used operatives of the Department of State Security, DSS who disguised as corps members to arrest him.
He declared that he was not afraid of arrest, rather it would pave way for freedom, stressing “it goes to show that this non-violence method is giving the Federal Government some sleepless nights”.
