Shooting Of Citizen Frank Dickson, IG Asked To Bring Culprits To Book by emindu: 4:47pm On Mar 20, 2015
The Inspector General of Police has been called upon to institute full investigation into the mayhem unleashed by the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA),Dr. Alex Otti at Oboro Ikwuano LGA resulting in the shooting of one Frank Dickson by Otti’s armed men.
Briefing newsmen at the Government House, Umuahia, the Assistant Director, Media, Okezuo Abia Campaign Organization, Mr. Kingsley Emereuwa said that a formal petition has been made to the Inspector General of police over the incident and urged the IG to properly look into the matter with a view to bringing those behind the dastardly act to book.
According to him, fillers indicate that there was plan to sweep the matter under the carpet, adding that the call has become necessary in view of recent developments in the state which indicate that some desperate politicians were trying to heat up the polity and disrupt the peace in the state.
Mr. Emereuwa made reference to a statement by the former governor of the state, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu where he vowed to make Abia ungovernable for the PDP-led government in the state pointing out that such posture was not in the best interest of the state.
He said that the alarm raised sometime ago by the state Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Dr. ACB Agbazuere that Alex Otti was using armed men in military uniform to intimidate Abians was not a hoarse as recent events have shown.
In his remark, Mr. Ugochukwu Emezue another Assistant Director, Media of the Okezuo Abia campaign organization noted that Governor Orji has done a lot in making the state peaceful and expressed unhappiness over the use of armed guards by desperate politicians to campaign in the state.
He also called on the Chief of Army Staff to ascertain the legality of a candidate of a political party going about with armed men to campaign

The impunity displayed by some Nigerians is so annoying yet they walk freely on the streets without their conscience feeling guilty. Anyone who votes such into government should know what to expect in the future.
