The member representing Oyi Constituency at the Anambra State House of Assembly, Hon. Innocent Ojike has frowned at the attitude of the Special Adviser to the Governor on Security, Air Vice Marshall (AVM) Ben Chiobi and Senior Special Assistant on Security, Hon. Mazi Chukwuma Okparaezechukwu foru sing their positions to harass and intimidate his people.
Hon. Ojike in a petition addressed to Governor Chukwuma Soludo against Chiobi and Okparaezechukwu, stated that the two appointees of the Anambra State government have abused and ridiculed their exalted offices by using their positions as paid agents to torment, threaten, harass, intimidate and wrestle the communal land of his people.
The lawmaker revealed that Chiobi and Okparaezechukwu used different security outfits such as State Vigilante, Anti-Tout and Agụnechemba to intimate, harass, torment and threaten his people in a very lawless manner to ensure that the market project is executed even in contravention of a lawful order of the Otuocha High court.
According to Hon. Ojike these individuals are appointees of the state government who are supposed to uphold the rule of law, order and best democratic practices.
