Former Governor Peter Odili's Nephew Abducted Yesterday By Gunmen by BigB11(m): 3:11pm On Feb 25, 2008
Odili’s nephew abducted

A nephew of former Governor Peter Odili, Mr. Celestine Odili, was on Sunday abducted by gunmen on Ada George Road in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.


It was gathered that Celestine, who had served as Personal Assistant to both Dr. Odili and Sir Celestine Omehia as governors, was coming from church when the hoodlums took him at gunpoint.


According to a security report, Celestine, who is also known as Eni, was returning from church with his family when a yellow Benz car blocked his car, forced him out and drove him away.


Confirming the incident, the Media Adviser to Dr. Odili and former Rivers State Commissioner for Information, Mr. Emma Okah, condemned the action.


Okah, who said Celestine’s uncle had confirmed the development to him, called for his immediate release, noting that the ongoing act of terrorism was not in the interest of Rivers people and that of the people of the Niger Delta region.


“We condemn this totally and we call on these terrorists to have a rethink because what they are doing can never be said to be in the interest of the Rivers people or the Niger Delta. Already, this has painted the region in bad light and it has the potential of making us lose the sympathy we have with the wider world,” Okah said.

Well, Odili killed the sleep of a people in Rivers state, I don't expect him to see sleep, Odili's fall has not started, he must pay for all his atrocities.
