Governor Otti steps in to stop what he calls selective and premature arrests, insisting the EFCC investigate properly and focus on proven corruption—not innocent young people.
The Abia State Government has blocked the convoy of the EFCC in Aba after they arrested more than 59 youths and attempted to move them to Abuja. Governor Otti ordered his security team to stop the convoy and demanded the immediate release of all 59 boys, instructing them to leave Aba at once.
"Aba boys are not thieves or kiler herdsmen. No such arrests of my people will happen under my watch. Head back to Sokoto and arrest the Fulani herdsmen, not innocent Aba youths”.
Me: The Governor is right. EFCC should stop being selective in their operations, stop random arrest of innocent young boys, you can’t arrest someone before investigating him. Go after c0rrupt politicians.
