Hon. Chinedum Orji, the outgoing Speaker of the Abia State House of Assembly, said that he had taken away lessons from the results of the just-completed 2023 elections in Abia and all other states.<\/p>\n<p>He accused former governor Okezie Ikpeazu of sponsoring his opponent in a rival party to defeat his bid to be elected as a member of the House of Representatives for the Ikwuano\/Umuahia Federal Constituency during the recently concluded National Assembly elections.<\/p>\n<p>He was speaking out in response to ongoing criticism from Abia political figures following his recent appearance\u2014along with that of his father, Senator Theodore Orji, a former governor of the state\u2014at the inauguration of Governor Alex Otti at Umuahia Township Stadium on May 29, 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Orji, who represents Umuahia Central Constituency of the state, insisted that days had gone when he fought for the good political interests of close allies and friends, regretting that he was being rewarded with blackmail and propaganda targeted to dent his image.<\/p>\n<p>He also clarified his recent appearance with his father and the current representative of Abia Central Senatorial District at the national assembly, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/08\/19\/details-emerge-on-how-senator-orji-was-allegedly-stopped-from-travelling\/\">Senator Theodore Orj<\/a>i,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you have a governor-elect that wrote to you or extended an invitation to you from another party, to please come and witness his inauguration; when you have a governor-elect reaching out to one of his predecessors who happened to be my own father, to please come and be a guest on his inauguration; if you are in my shoes, what will you do? I am throwing the question to you, the journalists. You will honour the invitation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs it about politics or Abia State? Let me tell you something, my dear brother. The days of Chinedum Orji (Ikuku) fighting other people\u2019s wars are over. If you want to fight anybody, come out and do the fights yourself. Don\u2019t hide under anybody.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI fought against the current governor twice between 2015 and 2019. You all know about it. At the end of the day, who told you those people I was fighting for? Did the person I fought for not reach out to the people I fought against? Who told you?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll these people who were our enemies, didn\u2019t the former governor go behind and reconcile with them? Didn\u2019t he go and reconcile with them? Why must my own be a topic? Did he not visit President Tinubu the other day? Have you people killed him?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a season of do me, I do you. I went there out of courtesy. And immediately he was inaugurated as governor, I left. And since that time, he has been naming those people who worked with him. Did you see my name? Did you see my relation\u2019s name? Did you see the name of anybody close to me there?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you are hobnobbing with my enemies in the night. When you sponsored my opponent in the night, and I decided to be a statesman, and you had an issue with that. But you were sponsoring my opponents, and you want me to continue fighting your enemies for you. So that when I fight, you win. And you go by 2 am, you invite him to your place and reconcile with him. He will then tell him how bad and cankerous the boy is. He is always fighting. I didn\u2019t send him. I didn\u2019t do this. All those \u201cgamji\u201d(scam) don pass. All those gamji period don pass.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you want to fight, you fight. You come out and do the fighting by yourself. So, if you fight me directly, i will fight you also directly. Am a man and I\u2019m not afraid of them. But for me, while i will doing the fightings for you and you keep quiet. So, attending Otti\u2019s inuaguration is about Abia state\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Recall that Theodore Orji, and the son and Chinedum Enyinnaya Orji were said to have single-handedly installed Okezie Ikpeazu as governor of the state after<a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/10\/12\/two-suspected-fraudsters-arraigned-for-impersonating-anthony-joshua\/\"> keenly contested<\/a> gubernatorial elections in 2015 and 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Ikpeazu defeated Otti twice.<\/p>\n<p>However, Ikpeazu lost the bid to install his anointed successor and candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at the just-concluded 2023 elections held in the state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rt.
