Gov Otti’s adoption of Hitler’s leadership style and principles is evil and inhuman
By Uche Aguoru
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.

Strong indications has emerged that the use of a generator in a poorly ventilated environment may have caused the death of some students of the University of Nigeria, Nssuka.
The suspicion emerged after a survivor of the incident disclosed that a generator was operating outside the corridor of the apartment where they gathered, while the doors and windows remained shut.
According to the 24-year-old survivor, an Art Education student, about 10 people attended the party organised by his friend, David, to celebrate the completion of his final examinations.
The gathering reportedly started around 11:30 a.m. at the host’s residence in the Hilltop area of Nsukka, with participants sharing alcoholic drinks and playing Truth or Dare.
Recounting his experience, the survivor said he suddenly lost consciousness after helping one of the participants who had vomited and returning to clean the floor.
He disclosed that his legs had become stiff and he could no longer walk before eventually passing out. The student said he regained consciousness at about 9 p.m., only to discover that his friends were lying motionless on the floor.
“When I regained consciousness at about 9 p.m., I heard someone saying that the host was shaking. I woke up and managed to look into the parlour, where I saw the host and other participants lying on the floor,” he recounted.
He said he subsequently contacted friends for assistance, before one of them eventually helped convey the affected students to Bishop Shanahan Hospital and other medical facilities in Nsukka.
The survivor further explained that the apartment was poorly ventilated, with the doors and windows shut, while a generator was running outside in the corridor. A fan was also operating inside the room.
Nigerian singer, Darlington Okoye popularly known as Speed Darlington, has apologised to Grammy-winning musician, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, asking him to withdraw the charges against him and promising to stop making comments about his sexuality.
Speed Darlington made the appeal in a video posted on his Instagram page on Thursday, in which he expressed regret over the pain and embarrassment he might have caused the singer.
“This video is for Burna Boy. Burna, this is an apology video. I apologise for any pain that I have caused you. Any shame that I have caused you,” he said.
The singer admitted that he was wrong to assume that everyone had the same temperament, adding that he wanted an end to their disagreement.
“I made the mistake of thinking that everybody vibrates at the same frequency. That’s wrong of me. I apologise, Burna Boy,” he added.
He further pledged to refrain from making both direct and indirect comments about Burna Boy’s sexuality, making the withdrawal of the charges a condition for his promise.
“I give you my word that if you withdraw all charges and let everything die, I give you my word that I will never make any direct comment regarding your sexuality. “Even indirect comment. I will no longer try sustain. I give you my word. Let peace reign,” he said.
Speed Darlington also promised not to mention the singer’s name again if the legal dispute was resolved.
“I promise I will never use my mouth to mention your name,” he added.
Yinusa Tanko, former national coordinator of the Obidient Movement, says he experienced a betrayal of trust and loyalty in Peter Obi’s camp, which led to his exit from the movement.
Tanko spoke on Thursday shortly after his unveiling as the coordinator of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) presidential campaign council.
Obi, presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Party (NDP), appointed Tanko as national coordinator of the Obidient Movement in September 2024, following a consensus to zone the position to the north.
He was later redeployed as Obi’s political adviser (north), a position he held until October 30, when he resigned.
However, Tanko said he never wanted to leave Obi’s camp, insisting that he was pushed out rather than choosing to exit the movement.
Tanko said although he appreciated the opportunity to serve Obi, he could not remain in a political group where his contributions were no longer valued.
“Well, you know, as you move along in politics, there may be a time when your group does not want you, does not need you or does not appreciate what you do,” he said.
“You don’t stay where you are being tolerated; you go where you are appreciated.
“As far as I’m concerned, I appreciate all the work I have done, and I appreciate him for giving me the opportunity. But the only thing I have suffered in that particular movement is betrayal of trust and betrayal of loyalty.”
Tanko said he served the former Anambra governor with diligence, honesty and integrity, adding that he still held him in high regard despite the circumstances surrounding his departure.
“Everybody knows that I have served with diligence, determination, honesty and integrity. That was how I served Peter Obi, and I continue to respect him,” he said.
“But now, since they don’t want me, people who appreciate me have picked me from the dustbin and made me a bride.”
Asked whether Obi would be pleased to see him in another political party, Tanko said he could not determine what was on the former governor’s mind.
“You cannot say what is on his mind; only he can speak for himself,” he said.
He added that his new political associates had recognised his contributions to nation-building and offered him another opportunity to serve.
