Full statement below:
I want the world to see what the NDC’s thugs came to my community in Effurun, Uvwie LGA of Delta State, to do on Friday, 18th September, 2026. They wrecked havoc on billboards pasted everywhere by Tompolo’s door-to-door Campaign Organisation, entered people’s shops with dangerous weapons and looted the shops. If it had been the other way round against the APC, the section of the bias PRESS and so-called human rights groups would have been screaming to high heavens, but since this happened, EVERYWHERE IS MUTE.

This is the EXACT point I made when I openly condemned the blockade of Peter Obi’s entourage from entering Benue State. But what happened in Benue is nothing compared to this. The double standards everywhere is sickening. The video is clear and the evidence is overwhelming. We have more evidence. The thugs were even accompanied by law-enforcement agents in their payroll. As the foremost political leader in that community, I will not let this slide. I have warned everyone not to resort to self-help.
I WILL BE SUBMITTING A PETITION TO THE INSPECTOR- GENERAL OF POLICE THIS WEEK TO THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATE this incident and bring all those found wanting to book (even against APC leaders, if anyone crossed the line). Disciplinary action should also be taken against those law-enforcement agents in their midst that condoned the looting and destruction of properties.
Some of us are now ready for the long haul!
