Why we sealed President Tinubu’s Campaign office – Governor

Abia State Governor Alex Otti has dismissed claims that the sealing of the Renewed Hope Agenda office on Ojike Street, Umuahia, was driven by political considerations.

In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Ukoha Ukoha, the governor explained that the action resulted from a general enforcement operation carried out by the state’s Harmonised Task Force to implement existing court orders.

Otti said he was not aware of the development until it was brought to his attention by the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu.

He immediately directed that the facility be reopened.

The governor stressed that the task force’s operations should not be misinterpreted as politically targeted, urging the public to refrain from assigning partisan motives to routine enforcement activities.

“The unsealing was promptly executed pending the regularisation of the building’s documentation.
“This enforcement was not politically motivated; rather, it was part of a general exercise targeting properties in default of statutory obligations,” the statement said
