Governor T. Orji
Abia state government has condemned what it described as orchestrated campaign of calumny against it, saying no amount of sponsored attacks will deter it from diligently serving the people.
Governor Theodore Orji in a reaction to several campaigns against his administration , said that his government had grown past blackmail engineered by those who have lost out of power in the state.
Speaking through his Special Adviser on Public Communication, Mr. Ben Onyechere, Orji maintained that “We will remain resolute and undaunted in our determination to uplift the status of the state by changing the landmarks of under-development for which it was hitherto known.
The aide in a statement noted that “habitual peddlers of falsehood have lost touch with reality based on their previous assumption that Abia political space was their private estate. There is no need to continually engage in sing songs over the achievements of the Governor Orji’s administration because we owe this sworn enemies of Abia State no apologies or explanation.
“The contraction by one detractor that his village is not developed by government is the dream of failure on behalf of his sponsor, who reigned for eight years in Abia.
“The sponsors of this hired funeral criers, whose major grouse is the loss of political power to the people of Abia, have refused to understand why majority of Abia people have continued to embrace and support the trend of fortune that is currently bequeathed to the state by the Orji’s administration.
“This mischief is nothing but an attempt to divert the attention of economic crime agencies over the squander and conversion of Abia funds for their private enterprises in the past.”
He added that the governor will continue to do the wishes of the people, who appreciate his efforts towards putting in place legacy projects in all areas of the state.
