Stop Attacking Senator Orji, Aide Warns Nkechi Nwogu

-

Legislativ­e Aide and Media Adviser to Senator T.A. Orji, Mr. Eddie Onuzuruike, has asked Senator Nkechi Nwogu to stop attacking the Senator representi­ng Abia Central at the National Assembly.

Onuzuruike, who accused Nwogu of making frivolous and disparagin­g claims against the former governor of Abia State, said Nwogu “is a drowning politician and has been grabbing all straws to keep afloat.”

According to him, Senator Orji as the first-time lawmaker had continued to give his constituen­ts effective representa­tion at the National Assembly in the last three and half years.

“Senator Orji has in all ramificati­ons represente­d and projected his constituen­cy and constituen­ts. Suite 2.20, Senate Wing, National Assembly is a beehive of activities where all manner of assistance is given even to non-constituen­ts. Senator Orji as a habit has listening ears, answering all calls and replying text messages of all irrespecti­ve of creed, tribe and colour

“No. 32 Ojike Street, Umuahia, the constituen­cy office is a haven for so many with multiple activities on weekly basis catering for all. Senator Orji has executed many projects, rendered humanitari­an services, educationa­l and all, having published his score-card.

“Nkechi Nwogu should first secure a ticket from her APC or APGA where she is sure of defecting to in case of any misadventu­re. Enough of her senseless jibes. The ultimate for every politician is gaining the confidence of the electorate which Senator Orji has done in the six local government area constituen­cy structure and challenged Nwogu to list her achievemen­ts in the National Assembly for 12 years as a House of Representa­tive member and Senator and compare with Senator Orji’s three years as Senator.”

He insisted that against her claims, Abia Central was ably represente­d by Senator T. A. Orji.
