Who Killed Audu? by timsaac1: 2:09pm On Nov 24, 2015
IMO STATE GOVERNOR-TINUBU DID NOT KILL AUDU

Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha has distanced himself from a statement credited to him by one Olutoyosi Omotoso accusing the National leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu as the mastermind behind the demise of the Kogi State APC governorship candidate, Audu Abubakar.

In a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Sam Onwuemeodo on Monday, November 23, Okorocha said there was no rift between him and Tinubu and consequently, the indicting statement was unwarranted.

He therefore described the report as one that was “totally false and cannot pass any logic to be believed,” adding “It was written in bad faith.”

The report credited to one Olutoyosi and entitled; “Tinubu, others killed Kogi Guber candidate-Okorocha”, was published on the Facebook account of the author.

The statement reads in part: “In the basically untrue report, the author claimed that the Imo Governor had accused the former Governor of Lagos state and one of the key pillars of the APC in the country, Senator Bola Tinubu and others he didn’t mention, of being responsible for the death of the APC governorship candidate in Kogi state, Prince Abubakar Audu.
1.“The report came up Sunday (November 22, 2016) evening and of course, few hours after the news of the death of the Kogi Prince were still in doubt by most Nigerians”.
2.“In the report, the author however failed or refused to mention or tell his audience whether Governor Okorocha had made that claim at a press conference or in a press release, but unfortunately and unintelligently said that the Imo Governor spoke on phone to say that.
3.“The truth of the matter is that, the report was totally false, even on the face value. It cannot pass any logic to be believed. It was written in bad faith.
4.“Even at that, the language of the story could not be Okorocha’s for those who know him and for those who have been following his speeches. He does not talk like an immature speaker. For instance the writer quoted the Governor to have said ‘we are not unaware of their antics and plans to field Audu’s Deputy, Mr. Abiodun Faleke, after the programmed death of his boss.’
5.“Governor Okorocha does not drag his sentences or speak disjointed grammar. The mischief is very obvious, for all men and women of goodwill to see in the story.”
6.The Governor’s aide argued further that, “again, on the day (Sunday) Audu was reported to have died, Okorocha was presiding over the meeting.
7.“The meeting began by 1pm and ended by 6.20pm. It was when the Governor was taken to the airport for Owerri that the news of Prince Audu’s death came as a rumour. Nobody believed it until late that night when the picture of the ugly incident became clearer.
8.“So, at what point did the Imo Governor call the writer on phone to begin to tell her what she claimed in the story?”

He therefore challenged the writer to publish the particulars of all the call in question.

“Let her state his relationship with the governor to warrant such phone interaction between them. We are only keen in unmasking the face of an ungodly blackmailer.
1.“Governor Okorocha is not quarrelling with Senator Tinubu. The envisaged rift between the duo only exist in the imaginations of those who have chosen the path of dishonour, because only dishonourable people could have authored such an inglorious write-up. Decent people do not do such.
2.“Finally, those who feel that they can drag Governor Okorocha down through cheap blackmail should better be advised to find something meaningful to do, because whoever God has blessed, nobody can curse. This is scriptural. And that is our joy and consolation.
