“It is very unfortunate that some people believe the drugs sold to them by some miscreants and haters of Abia to be true and factual. People should learn to think and reason when they read some stories.
It is not every story that you swallow line and sinker. Only a brainless individual will believe such falsehood by Ochendo Global enemies.
“These protesters and their sponsors are anti-democratic forces and enemies of Ndigbo and we will flush them out from Abia state.”
COSEYL further added that; “Former Senate President of the 8th Senate, Senator Bukola Saraki was accused of corruption but when he’s matter came to court, the took their time to look into the matter and the court discovered that he was falsely accused of all those wrongdoings.
“He was discharged and acquitted. It is only the court that has the constitutional rights to trail any matter or case. The media is not the court. Senator T. A. Orji and his family are innocent of all these allegations.
“The petitioners falsely accused him of embezzling all the allocation sent to Abia state. In their petition, they told the EFCC that he never paid salaries, pension and did not perform any government function (s).
“Only misfits will write such a petition. We call on those who have been brainwashed by these criminal group called ‘Save Nigeria Group’ to immediately jettison the protesters and go about their normal business.”
