Orji Uzor Kalu And SUN Newspaper Should Allow Abia Some Peace by thejurist: 10:21pm On Sep 28, 2015
T.A.Orji Never Booed at Burial Ceremony in Osisioma

The attention of Senator Theodore Orji, representing Abia Central Senatorial District in the red chamber of the National Assembly, has been drawn to a malicious and misleading report in one of the national dailies claiming that he was booed last Friday at Mbutuoma, Osisioma Ngwa Local Government during the burial of the late husband of Senator Nke­chi Nwaogu, Dr. Rowland Nwaogu.

The said report merely stood truth on the head as Senator Orji was never booed instead he received the highest ovation from the crowd in appreciation of his eventful eight years in office which gave him the appellation "Legacy Governor."

Senator T.A.Orji who was in company of the Deputy Senate President, Senator Ike Ekweremadu and other dignitaries only waved his hands to the appreciative crowd at the point of his arrival and departure from venue of the burial.

Ochendo Global is loved by Abians; no amount of blackmail will stop Abians from loving and appreciating the good works he did in Abia State.

This latest laughable report was part of the media war against the high flying Senator representing Abia Central in the Senate by a particular newspaper owner. The sole aim of planting such false and misleading report, is to tar the image of Senator T.A. Orji. But they will not succeed.

The question any discerning mind should ask is why no other newspaper in Nigeria which had their reporters at the burial ceremony published the alleged booing? Nigerians now know better!

Senator T.A.Orji after he left venue of the burial ceremony attended three other events in Bende and UMUAHIA South Local Government Areas of the state where he was again warmly received by the people.

***************

A Socio Political group Abia Reunion based in Umuahia has described as untrue and malicious a story published by the Sun Newspaper claiming that former Governor of Abia State, Chief TA Orji was booed at the burial of Senator Nkechi Nwogu husband's burial last Friday at Osisioma.

The statement said that the story is misleading as notable members of Abia Reunion accompanied Senator Orji to the burial and nothing of such happened. The statement further stated that Senator Orji who arrived the venue of the burial with the Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu who paid received applause from the crowd contrary to what Sun reported.

According to the statement, Abians should disregard the story knowing full well that Orji Uzor Kalu and Sun Newspaper are not happy with the towering profile of Senator Orji.

Abia Reunion insisted that Senator Orji is a man of integrity and honour unlike OUK who has lost political relevance. It is on record that Uzor Kalu had lost elections three times since he left office as the worst Abia Governor. He can best be described as an epitome of deceit, a reckless political nomad. While Senator Orji is serving his people at the Senate courtesy of the mandate given to him by the good people of Abia Central. Hence he will remain focused in his assignment in Abuja.

He shouldn't worry, before four years ends he will come to aba again and many aba boys will sure be waiting with lots of pure water and they will have a video to prove them wrong.

If T.A. orji wants to try them he should visit aba next week
