Let me start by congratulating my brother and friend Ukuoha Njoku Ukoha on his appointment as the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Otti and I must not fail to let you know that the job you ascribed to is not a mean feat but rather a challenging accomplishment that requires considerable effort, skill, resources, and discipline.

I noticed that in your first assignment as the Chief Press Secretary, you devoted time to respond to my measured missive to my Governor, Dr. Alex Otti, where I advised him to please stop using Adolph Hitler’s policies, leadership style, and principles as his governance standards and also went further to point out the humongous roguery and pilfering of states resources using unquantifiable subheads going on under his watch and approval which Abians and even Non-Abians have seen and noticed each time the government releases its quarterly fiscal report, but sadly, it is very unfortunate reading his response to me through his Chief Press Secretary that my governor is still insistent and has no regret applying the Hitler principles as propounded by Joseph Goebbels the chief propagandist for the Nazi Party and Hitlers long-standing follower and ally who propagated and defended the killing of Six million Jews during the holocaust.

Let me pardon Mazi Ukoha’s naivety, maybe out of blind support, he hasn’t taken a close study of Governor Otti’s leadership ideology which is derived from Hitlers Nazi party persecutory, suffering, and exclusionary laws that are extremely antisemitic and promotes persecution and systematic state-sponsored killing of six million Jewish men, women, children and millions of others by Nazi Germany and its collaborators.

But before I delve into the meat of the issue, I will advise for the sake of decorum and decency that you understand you are firstly the spokesman of the governor and his image maker and you have to communicate his activities and policies using the most decent of languages.

Your Job as a Press Secretary is to collect information about actions and events within the governor’s administration and issue the governor’s reactions to developments and this must be done using the finest of languages and not Ikonu, given this background, your use of words such as “orgasm and Masturbation” in your official communication to the world in your capacity as the Chief Press Secretary leaves much to be desired and brings the office and personality of the governor to a very big low unless, of course, the governor enjoys motor park style of communication “WHO KNOWS”?

But then inorder to preserve the image of the governor and the government of Abia State ethics must be applied while doing your job and you must not resort to vulgarity and use of indecent words in public spaces no matter how tempting not even under the influence of “Premium Whiskey”

With my governor having fully adopted the devil-inspired principles of Adolph Hitler, Let me appeal to your conscience if there is still one, my brother and friend, Ukoha Njoku, can you please explain to Abians why the government you serve derives so much pleasure in the impoverishment and suffering of Abians?

“Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth”, this is a law of propaganda attributed to Joseph Goebbels your government’s role model in propaganda

What offense did the Abia pensioners commit that Dr. Otti is forcing them to forfeit their pensions and entitlements and at the same time lying against them that he has cleared their nine years of pension arrears?

If not for the strict application of Hitler’s leadership principles, why would Governor Otti in the face of the intense poverty, ravaging hunger, and severe hardship in Abia, refuse to show empathy to Abia civil servants by approving wage awards or other forms of palliatives to cushion the effects of the hardship but will cumulatively expend Eleven Billion Naira of taxpayers money for Refreshments, Meals, Whiskey, Nkwobi, peppers soup and running of his Umuru Nvosi Government House within nine months?

Why will Julius Berger charge 2.45 billion naira for one kilometer of road in Rivers State despite the complexities associated with road construction because of the challenging terrain of swamps, rivers, and creeks and turn around to charge 5.4 billion naira per kilometer of road in Abia? “My brother E Get as E Be”

Since Okey Kanu the commissioner for information is lost and could not afford answers to my initial posers let me also repeat for the sake of emphasis, since you are in a better position to know as the governor’s spokesman

Where are these multi-billion naira facilities Governor Otti claimed to have built located in Abia?

1. The #3.4bn ICT center.

2. The #6.1bn Research and Capacity Building Center

3. The #3.77bn Office Buildings

4. The #4.57bn Public Schools

5. The #2.8bn Governor’s Vehicles

6. The #1.6bn Agric Facility

7. The #2bn Hospital

While struggling to respond or find answers to my honest question as a concerned Abian, I must appreciate you because I know how difficult it is to defend a governor who made propaganda and deceit the policy fulcrum of his government and conceals vital information including the cost of contract awards to his media managers, but let me indulge you to allow your conscience to be your guide as I wish you well in this very difficult assignment of defending a government that has refused to be open and honest even to its media managers.
