ALL Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) governorship candidate in Abia State in the last elections, Dr. Alex Otti, has denied being the brain behind an alleged sponsoring of tax forgery against Governor Okezie Ikpeazu by a gubernatorial aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the December 8, 2014 primaries, Chief Friday Nwosu.
In a release by his Media Assistant, Ferdinand Ekeoma, Otti said a recent statement credited to a former governor of the state which impugned that a case of tax forgery instituted against Ikpeazu by Nwosu was being sponsored by him was the height of irresponsibility from a grand father.
It read in part: “The former Governor’s recent insinuation that Chief Friday Nwosu, a PDP gubernatorial aspirant in the last party primaries is being sponsored in his tax forgery case against Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu and his subsequent kindergarten boasts that the ‘sponsors would fail the way they failed at the election tribunal’ is not only an irritating outburst unbecoming of a grand father, but the insulting swagger with which he made his ridiculous utterances directed at Dr. Alex Otti brought back to memory of Ndi Abia the calamity of his inglorious tenure; it indeed bore the man’s trademark of political tragic comedy.”
“If the man wasn’t a failed governor and now an accidental lawmaker, he would have used the gathering to reflect on his achievements as governor, if any, and at the same time inform those present of his giant strides as a lawmaker.
But because he has no good account of stewardship to render, he chose to once again consolidate on the politics of pettiness, deceit, disinformation and hatred which he and his likes instituted in Abia.” The statement reminded the former governor that Otti is not in the same party with the sponsor of the alleged forgery. “May we remind this grandfather that the matter at hand is about one PDP aspirant against another, and predates the election. In case they have forgotten, Otti belongs to another party.”
