The member representing Isuikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency of Abia State in the House of Representatives, Amobi Ogah, has insisted his loyalty to Governor Alex Otti remains unwavering, dismissing his purported suspension from the Labour Party.
The Julius Abure-led Labour Party faction recently suspended Otti and all LP lawmakers in the House of Representatives.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Ogah on Thursday insisted that the indefinite suspension by Abure’s faction had no weight and as such would not affect his loyalty to his state governor, Otti.
Ogah described the suspension as a joke taken too far and a distraction sponsored by elements threatened by the new face of leadership in Abia State.
He stated, “I want to make it clear; the so-called suspension means absolutely nothing to me.”
He said that he has the mandate of the people, and his commitment to Otti and his transformational agenda in Abia remains unshakable.
The lawmaker reaffirmed his confidence in the governor’s leadership, saying that Otti has brought hope, accountability and progress to Abia.
“Gov. Alex Otti is the best thing that has happened to our state in decades. I am with him full time. Nobody can bully us out of this progressive movement. No amount of intimidation can stop the will of the people,” Ogah added.
The lawmaker called on his constituents to remain calm and focused, assuring them of his commitment to his mission of delivering effective representation to the people of Isuikwuato and Umunneochi.
