The Abia state governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu has expressed shock over a quote credited to the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed in which he alleged that Mr Chibuisi Okameme, petrol attendant who was shot dead recently in Aba by a policeman was instead killed by a vehicle, saying the minister did not get his facts right.

The Governor while alleging that the minister's position is part of grand plans to cover up the murder of Abia citizen insisted that justice must be done, urging the police authorities to expedite action to arraign the killer cop, Inspector Osas Atsu of Ohuru Isimiri Police Division.

"Our attention has been drawn to a statement in the media credited to the Honorable Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Muhammed, as published in some national newspapers to the effect that the late petrol attendant in Aba, Mr Chibuisi Okameme, believed to be a victim of extra-judicial killing, was not killed by a policeman.

"The Honorable Minister was quoted to have said, among other things that, “What happened was that the policeman hit a Keke Napep and while the people were protesting, another oncoming vehicle hit the petrol attendant leading to his death”.

"Nothing can be further from the truth!" Ikpeazu said in a statement on Friday signed by Chief John Okiyi Kalu, the Commissioner for Information.

The Governor went ahead to underline that the alleged extra-judicial killing took place in the presence of shocked eyewitnesses who observed the incident, stating that the Minister may have been informed.

"We wish to state categorically that information available to us suggests that one Inspector Osas Atsu of Ohuru Isimiri Police Division, Aba, allegedly shot and killed the late petrol attendant, Mr Chibuisi Okameme, of Green Mac Filling Station, New Umuahia Road, Aba, by aiming and firing live bullets at him in broad daylight and in the presence of many shocked eyewitnesses.

"The police authorities in the state are currently detaining the suspect in preparation for prosecution after due orderly room trial. We are therefore shocked to read the statement credited to the Honorable Minister, as reported by the News Agency of Nigeria and published by several leading national newspapers. We believe that the Honorable Minister of Information may either have been misinformed or misquoted on the true state of affairs.

"Abia State Government wishes to call on the Police authorities to expedite the arraignment of the alleged murderer of Citizen Okameme as we will not accept any cover-up or conspiracy to do same from any quarters. May we reiterate that nothing short of justice for the grieving family and friends of the late hard-working young man will be acceptable to us.

when you employ a very unintelligent minister without carriage and skills and all he has to do is to tell brazen barefaced lie to keep his job, who else remembers how Nigerians were deceived that boko haram was defeated until the chadians came to our rescue. God bless Idris Debby , the defender of west Africa whose low budget military without the assitance of Britain, Soviet Union, Arab Republic or any other country, without the bombing of IDP or killing of unarmed civilians in the name of friendly fire or collateral damage with a national budget less than the military budget of Nigeria was able with one single attack , decimate whatever existed in the name of Boko Haram, restoring sanity to the Black Race , West Africa and the big for nothing useless Giant of Africa.

MansoryMX:
The syndrome disorder Lai is suffering from is strong o! You dey far away Abuja dey talk how something te happen for Abia state as if you are in Abia. This man isn’t normal at all.

Where was Ikpeazu? Did he see the policeman shooting the victim?

Both Ikpeazu and Lai got their information from secondary sources, as it is now, only thorough investigation can unravel the truth.


I AM DONE TALKING

Master of liars

Ikpeazu is a big fool!!!
What's the difference between him and Lai?
A man who owes teachers over 8 months salaries and still lies about it in the media. You're both the same.

E Neva start

I hope in all of these the state government was diligent enough to order an autopsy and have on record the cause of death so that in addition to witnesses there is factual evidence! At least a bullet wound is certainly distinct from heavy impact from a moving force like a vehicle!

This is how 5th columnists like Mohammed the Liar will muddy the waters and if there is no iron-clad evidence, it becomes a matter for debate denying victims their right to justice!
