PRESS CONFERENCE BY DISTINGUISHED SENATOR PETER NWAOBOSHI ON SUNDAY, 7TH OF JULY, 2019

The attention of the Distinguished Senator Peter Nwaoboshi has been drawn to online publications purportedly to be court order on forfeiture of his properties and bank accounts and has deemed it necessary as a law-abiding citizen to address his constituents, Nigerians and the world.

In unequivocal terms, Senator Peter Nwaoboshi (herein after referred to as SPON) has no 22 bank accounts neither does he OPERATE 22 bank accounts even though there’s no law in the Federal Republic of Nigeria that forbids such. In fact, of the 22 bank accounts purportedly published to be forfeited, more than half belong to companies he has no interest in. SPON described the actions of Okoi Obono-Obla as rascal, scandalous and a deliberate attempt to tarnish his good image before his constituents, Nigerians and the world in a calculated attempt to please his paymaster, Ned Nwoko.

SPON described Okoi Obono-Obla as a failure during his days in the law school while also challenging him to publish the names of shareholders of the companies whose accounts were purported to belong to him.

On the issue of properties, SPON made reference to an Asaba High Court judgement delivered by Justice Okon Abang where a delivered was delivered on the ownership of Summing Electrical Company Nigeria Ltd. In the judgement delivered by justice Okon Abang. SPON further submitted that the petition from the above judgement is what Okoi Obono-Obla hinges his rascality just to please Ned Nwoko whom he defeated both in the Primary Election of Delta North Senatorial District and the Court of Appeal.

SPON further disclosed that every sense of reasoning demands that Okoi Obono-Obla ought to approach the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) to reveal directors and stakeholders of the companies listed as well as banking institutions to verify the true signatories of bank accounts.

Speaking further on the 22 bank accounts, SPON submitted that twelve (12) of those accounts belongs to companies he has no interest in. Of the remaining ten accounts, five (5) accounts have been dormant in the last ten years – facts Okoi Obono-Obla would not reveal to Nigerians. In fact, SPON further disclosed that one of the accounts published by the Court is a salary account where all his salaries and emoluments are domiciled. In fact, another of the account is an estscode account which every serving Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is entitled to. SPON further challenged Okoi Obono-Obla and the SPIP to publish the cumulative balances in all of the listed accounts.

Narrating the rascality of Okoi Obono-Obla and his desperate attempt to please Ned Nwoko, SPON revealed how his Abuja home was ransacked by men of the SPIP, stormed the National Assembly complex in a commando manner, laid siege at a hotel in Abuja and even arrested and harassed one of his Aides in an attempt to prevent him from being sworn-in as a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Whilst addressing the pressmen, Senator Peter Nwaoboshi made reference to a court injuction from an Abuja High Court on the 10th of June which was served Okoi Obono-Obla, the Inspector-General of Police and published on the 12th of June barring the agency or any of their associates from harassing him and to maintain status quo ante from 31st of May, 2019 pending when the suit before the Court has been substantively determined even as it was further revealed that Okoi Obono-Obla never revealed these facts in the Court.

Similarly, SPON deposited that the so-called Chief Legal Officer in the office of the Attorney General of the federation who purportedly signed the legal documents on the alleged court order was an impostor who’s not even a staff of the the Ministry of Justice and promised to take legal actions against such.

Finally, SPON expressed his readiness to approach the court and have the order fraudulently obtained by Okoi Obono-Obla vacated.

Quizzed as to whether his open support for the emergence of Senator Ahmad Lawan as Senate President was for his political ‘sins’ to be swept under the carpet as has been muted in some quarters, SPON submitted categorically that he was more interested in an efficient and effective Senate of the 9th Assembly and openly supported the emergence of Senator Ahmad Lawan because, of all the contestants then, only Senator Lawan, base on experience in the National Assembly, has all what it takes to drive the Senate forward. SPON went further to narrate how he openly endorsed the emergence of Senator Bukola Saraki as the President of the 8th Assembly and his actions where justified following sterling performance by Senator Bukola Saraki.

Asked whether if his political persecution might have some backing from any quarter especially within Delta State, SPON affirmed that he has no reasons whatsoever to harbor such in mind. He described himself as one of the pioneer leaders of the party in the state, having served as the pioneer secretary of the party and later became the party’s chairman in Delta State. SPON also submitted that he has served the Delta State Government in various capacities starting from the old Bendel State and will continue to be a proud PDP stalwart.
