Following reports that popular Catholic Archbishop, AJV Obinna was attacked by men loyal to governor Rochas Okorocha's son-in-law, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu at St. Micheals Catholic Church, Ngwoma, Owerri North LGA of Imo State during the burial of Late Mrs Mbata, mother of the Pro-Chancellor of Imo State University, Owerri, Chief Alex Mbata, the Imo state government has released a press statement to that effect.

Read below;

"LINKING UCHE NWOSU WITH THE PURPORTED BEATING OR LYNCHING OR ATTACKING OR HARASSING OF ARCHBISHOP OBINNA"

We have as usual, read on the social media several versions of the purported beating or lynching or attacking or harassing of the Catholic Archbishop of Owerri Diocese, Bishop Anthony Obinna allegedly by hoodlums or thugs or Entraco officials on the fictitious order of Chief Uche Nwosu, Chief of Staff, Government House.

Those behind this latest blackmail said the incident happened at a burial Church Service in a Community at Ngor-Okpala LGA.

We do not intend to bug our audience with lengthy story to show the reason behind this latest blackmail or onslaught until Archibishop Obinna himself talks on this claim.

However, we say this for posterity sake. Imo people, including youths, students, men and women have thrown their unalloyed support behind the youthful Chief of Staff, Uche Nwosu for the 2019 governorship in the State. He has become the subject-matter as long as that issue is concerned, with APC officials and leaders from 24 out of the 27 Local Governments in the State having already endorsed him for the 2019 Imo guber.

Now seeing Uche Nwosu as the guy to beat in the 2019 election, they now think that there is no other way to stop him than through unwarranted blackmail. That is the reason, such a quintessential gentleman and an embodiment of decency should be associated with whatever that transpired at the event in question.

Also note that the issue of being an in-law to Governor Okorocha has refused to fly. So the change in their tactics.

For weeks now, they have flooded the social media with one ugly story or the other against the young man, but to Imo people, such elements are wasting their time. They do not know that when God has said yes to any project nobody can say No.

It should also be recalled that in 2015, in their effort to blackmail Governor Rochas Okorocha out of winning his Second term election they called him names including Alhaji in Government House and Okoro Hausa and when all that had failed, the thugs hired by the PDP and APGA then came and pulled down the Podium meant for guests for the Political debate for the governorship Candidates also organized by the Owerri Catholic Diocese. The same people went wild with the false story that Governor Okorocha told his supporters to pull down the Podium even when he had not arrived the venue of the event. Imo people knew the truth and still went ahead to cast their votes for him enmass.

This time, it is Uche Nwosu because they have seen that he is the man for 2019 with God on our side. And no amount of blackmail or tricks would change the plan of God on the young man to govern the State. It takes someone alive in the things of the Spirit to know that Uche Nwosu is a “Child” of destiny. He has the divine mark. And anyone fighting him is fighting his God. And no one can battle with God.

Finally, in whatever we all do, we should be mindful of the Judgement of God. One day, everybody whether Pastor, Journalist, Bishop and so on, will all appear before the Judgement throne of God. That time, blackmailers and social media won’t be there.

Toktee u and I are on the same. I keep telling people that Buhari obviously has his shortcomings. I am not his fan though I use to before but people deflect blame from the greatest enemy of d Nigerian people whoch is d senate and push on Buhari. They fail to realize that is a law making body and shaped the legal framework on which the executive can operate. Sadly, these dishonourable monster have destroyed d destinies of the very people defending them. Let them come out and tell us what they have done with d huge monies allocated for constituency projects.
I wish to state that no where in d sane climes lawmakers finance projects. I mean no where at all. It is d exclusive preserve of the executive. They can only monitor or oversee the execution and financing of projects. They should share the blame for the poor infrastructure in d country as they receive funds for it as well which ends in their pockets. Afterall we could see of all the millions they get see the so-called bridge Dino the agbero said he did as project or the other pit toilet that female senator from Bayelsa did or the bags of tea they share.
What a doomed nation.

But APC lampooned, crucified, blasted GEJ back then that he ought to visit chibok as the C-in-C, so are you taking sides now?

So, do we now say APC orchestrated the chibok saga to humiliate GEJ also?


It's like hypocrisy is your middle name??

Toktee:
I just hate eyes service,pdp is not in any position to say that to pmb,they knew is very good to visit the affected area,yet they failed to advice jonah to do same,why trying to score a cheap political goal now?
We all know that the kidnapping is the handwork of pdp to humliate pmb who claimed to have wiped out bokoharam,and to use same as a campaign weapon against the ruling party,we know all this.

What is essence of "Change" if it's to continue from the latter??

The human mind is naturally conditioned to reject randomness and vacuum. That is why we try to attribute accidents and coincidences to some definitive causes.

It is just a coincidence it was found the way it was, but us trying to put a pattern or cause to it is just us being what we are, Humans!

Lol, again MORE ignorance on display! No wonder you guys use violence to settle your scores. Violence is your Chief weapon because intelligence and logic can never support Islam.

If the story of the tower of Babel is so absurd, why did prophet Sex Award Winner (SAW) plagiarise it and put a version of it into his Unholy Crookran?


28:38. And Pharaoh said: O chiefs! I know not that ye have a god other than me, so kindle for me (a fire), O Haman, to bake the mud; and set up for me a lofty tower in order that I may survey the god of Moses; and lo! I deem him of the liars.

Damn we Christians are just too good! Even our "absurdities" are considered to be golden in the eyes of the illiterate prophet Sex Award Winner (SAW)!
