Militants under the aegis of Coalition for Militant Action (COMA) have vowed to blow up the over N60 billion Omoku gas turbine should anti-corruption agencies in the country fail to arrest Governor Peter Odili of Rivers State after may 29, 2007.
This is as the State government has said in a statement that Power Holdings of Nigeria, Port Harcourt Distribution zone has confirmed the coverage of 60 percent of the city from power generated from Omoku gas turbine.
In a statement sent online by the Commander of COMA, Mr. Alaye Teme, the militants said they were miffed at the lack of development in the eight year tenure of Odili which they said had received N1.24 trillion from the Federal Government as allocation within the period.
They said the reason they were giving the government and anti-corruption agencies till May 29 was to test if the agencies were just doing the biddings of President Olusegun Obasanjo or if it was paying a blind eye to some while pursuing others.
�We wish to inform the Nigerian state and its people that we will attack and destroy the Omoku Gas turbine station any time after May 29, 2007 if Peter Odili is not arrested and convicted by the anti-corruption agencies of the Nigerian state.
�Peter Odili’s eight year tenure in Rivers state and changed nothing. He built a good house for himself and his goons and that was all. He squandered N1.24 trillion in that period. No man should forgive such wickedness.
Any attempt by the Nigerian state and those who have partaken in the chop-chop of Rivers money to shield Odili from prosecution and persecution will be eternally condemned.
�At that time, it will be much too clear to us if and whether these anti-corruption agencies are real or mere secret police of the Obasanjo junta. We will keep faith with destiny�, they vowed.
Note from Chief…..
