America Again ? Husband Insists Polygamy Must Be Legalized

Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State has revealed that the transfer of
Boko Haram prisoners to his state, Ekwulobia prisons to be precise, was
concluded in 2012 Goodluck Jonathan administration.
The governor, who spoke through his Senior Special adviser on Political
Matters, Mr. Chinedu Obidigwe, said the decision was taken during a seminar
organized for officers and men of the Nigeria Prison Service, NPS, in which
Ekwulobia and Kuje prisons in Anambra and Abuja respectively, were chosen
as prisons for the Boko Haram inmates.
Funny enough, in a swift reaction, a former Governor of the state Peter Obi
has expressed shock about the claims by Governor Willie Obiano, describing it
as a blatant lie.
Obiano's man, Obidigwe said the transfer of Boko Haram suspects would have
been effected immediately but for the 2015 general elections on ground that it
would affect the second term ambition of Jonathan in the South East geo-
political zone.
Obidigwe contended that a decision made under the nose of past
administrations in the state and the country in general should not be blamed
on the current regime in Anambra.
“In as much as the state government would not want to join issues with such
section of the public, it is important to note that the policy of transferring
Boko Haram inmates to Anambra State had been made since 2012 under the
regimes of President Goodluck Jonathan and Mr. Peter Obi, but for the 2015
general elections which the then President was contesting for a second term.
“Since the transfer of the 47 inmates, panic had gripped the people of
Ekwulobia as residents in the area were apprehensive of an imminent attack
by members of the Boko Haram Islamic sect,’’he said.
But describing the claim as a blatant lie, Peter Obi wondered how an action or
a plan concluded by a man who left office almost 16 months ago was being
implemented now.
He said: “The governor is clearly looking for an alibi for an action that was
against the people. He should look elsewhere and not in the direction of Mr.
Peter Obi, who, since he left office, had opted to stay away from Awka and not
to distract the present government in any way.”
Someone is lying, someone is telling the truth. We will soon find out the truth.
