Igala Vanguard has appeal to security agencies to move ahead the decision of the International organisation indictment of Governor Yahaya Bellos rele-ection spokesman,Tom Ohikere to avoid overheating and creating disaffection in the polity
A statement issued by Engineer Lawrence Akpa said the decision of CDD accusing Ohikere of hate speech and fake news is enough indices to dock him now or never
His outburst according to the spokesman,if not checked,has laid a foundation for bitter sectional,religious,tribal and creed segregation in Kogi, particularly towards the November election
Aside,creating strong political disaffection capable of creating civil strife,Ohikere has also laid a foundation for other dissident groups led by some political actors like Senator Smart Adeyemi,DG Yahaya Bello re-election Campaign team, Evagenlist Kingsley Fanwo,Kogi governors spokesman,some youths and others to perpetrate bitter ethnic segregation, to achieve cheap political scores by November election
He alleged that already the build up and body langugage of the people of Kogi Central have been cocooned against the people from Kogi east,with some spoilers from Kogi west doing their biddings that will soothe their whims and caprices
Akpa pleaded with the CDD,to collaborate with some NGO’s,Civil Society organsitions,International Communities,Election monitors to effect stringent actions on the utterances of Kogi governors campaign spokesman, Tom Ohikere before the November election
According to Akpa,Ohikere that was a major beneficiary of the previous adminstration presided over by leadership from Kogi east,and was surviving on the goodwill of the people from the area,when his own kinsman sent him out of his state, suddenly now become a protagonist of tribal segregation
‘ It is not even out of place to support Yahaya Bello his kinsman,in the next election,but why importing lies,fake news as well as justified what was not pronounced,to drive home his nepotic traits to cause war like situation in the state’
Akpa warned the international organsition not to stop at blacklisting Governor Yahaya Bello’s campaign spokesman,but must ensure he is prosecuted and brought to book to avoid a repeat of his gimmicks
‘It is in the public domain,that Tom Ohikere is groomed and known to be protagonist of those fanning the embers of discord in Kogi,owing to personal and financial benefits attached to it,out of his bankruptcy and quest to improve his financial status’
‘He is a known sadist,who never meant well for the progress and development of the state,as his desire is to impose his kinsman Yahaya Bello through all means possible as Kogi governor’
The activities of Tom Ohikere should be monitored by security agents,as he has already set the ball rolling by instigating groups within the Central senatorial district to disallow the PDP candidate from campaigning in the area,so as to further his ethnic rivalry between the East and the Central
According to Engineer Akpa,Ohikere and Smart Adeyemi were contracted to polarise and execute the ethnic and sectional project,to dislodge the PDP candidate,Engineer Musa Wada,while some dissidents from Kogi east are been used to take arms on the people of the area,to ensure Bello’s re-election in November
He commended the international organisation for their unbiased outcome and in-depth investigation of the controversial issue initiated by Tom Ohikere and urge them to see to the amicable ressolution of the issue before the November election
