EBONYI GOV DAVID UMAHI GOVERNOR Charles Otu, an Ebonyi based journalist and publisher of Conscience, a local newspaper, was yesterday the 2nd of June 2017, kidnapped and beaten to unconsciousness by gunmen alleged to be working for the Governor of Ebonyi State, Engr. David Umahi.
Charles Otu has been known to use his local newspaper, Conscience to ‘expose the failures of Ebonyi state government in many sectors’. He also uses his Facebook posts to ‘update activities of the government and to critically analyse and x-ray its programs and projects’.
According to a source with adequate knowledge of the incident,
“On Friday the 2nd of June, Otu was manhandled and bundled into a branded bus while he stood with newspaper vendors at the popular Vanco junction, Abakaliki. The bus was branded with the name ‘Akubaroha Youth Assembly’, a youth organization initiated by the governor allegedly serving as his strong arm. Thugs carrying guns jumped out of the said vehicle and kidnapped Otu, but not before beating him up in the presence of people despite his struggle to escape.
“Charles Otu was then taken to the Ebonyi State Government House, Abakaliki where he was forced out of the vehicle and made to lie on the ground. The thugs brought out machetes, rods and sticks and proceeded to beat him up – over twenty of them jostling and shoving to get their turn at him. The thugs accused Otu of making a post on Facebook two days earlier x-raying the activities of the state government and matching the failure of the government to the inaugural speech made by Governor, Engr. David Umahi the day he was sworn in.
“The said post had gone very viral and had given the state governor some serious headache as never in the past had anyone ever given such an analysis against the government.”
Alleged to be present with the thugs were some Senior Special Advisers to the Governor. While the journalist was pleading for his life, they informed him that the instruction was to kill him.
The source continued:
“Someone had reached out to a highly placed national official who called the police authorities. It was learnt that a signal was sent to the Commissioner of Police in Ebonyi state.
“At the time, calls were already coming from all parts of the country including from the security. It was gathered that at the point of his abduction, his phone had fallen off and someone who was with him took the phone and made the initial calls. At the time he was being manhandled and assaulted at the Ebonyi State Government House, the news was everywhere on social media.
“Knowing that they’d been discovered, the thugs got calls from those that sent them not to kill Mr. Charles Otu but to get him to write an undertaking that he was going to move away from Ebonyi State and that he would never report nor write anything against the state government. One of the thugs suggested that since the abduction had leaked that it was best to take him to the police and he would sign the undertaking while at the police station.
“They bundled him into their vehicle and one of the thugs allegedly ordered the journalist not to raise his head and not to mention any of their names. At the Kpirikpiri Police Station, the alleged leader of the thugs informed the police that he saw some people beating the young man up and rescued him. Then the police asked Mr Otu to write his statement, but he was too weak to do so.”
While this was ongoing, friends and well wishers gathered at the police station, demanding his rescue. According to the source, Mr Otu later passed out.
Efforts to reach the Ebonyi state police command have proved abortive.
