A Frontline Support Group In Nigeria Under The Aegis Of Coalition Of South East APC Support Groups Led By Dr. Akweke Francis Okoye ( Oyi Umunri) Today Passed A Vote Of Confidence On The Chief Of Naval Staff Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ikechukwu Ogalla.
… Describing The Purported $170 Million Dollars Bribe Allegations Against The Naval Chief As Baseless, Unfounded And Handiwork Of Frustrated Cabals And Syndicate Stealing Nigeria’s Crude Oil Through Illegal Bunkering And Theft.
The Leader Of The Group Dr. Francis Chidozie Okoye While Addressing A Press Conference Today February 1st, 2024 At Barcelona International Hotel In Abuja Warned That Any Attempt At Muscling The Naval Chief Out From Office Will Be Highly Resisted By The Group
Dr Okoye Further Submitted…”As laughable as the allegations are, even the Nigerian Navy Authority in their reactions to the syndicated allegations revealed that all the vessels alleged to have been released, which were the basis of the purported $170,000,000 said to have been received by the Naval Chief in bribes, are as at today still in their custody and currently undergoing investigation. You now ask, “if the basis for the allegation which is the arrested vessels, are still in the Naval Custody, what then is the noise all about” ?
The Group Urged The Naval Chief , Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ikechukwu Ogalla Not To Be Distracted And Disregard The Machinations Of The Evil Ones Who Are Bent On Distracting Him From Achieving His Set Goals Of Fighting Crude Oil Theft And Illegal Oil Bunkering To A Standstill. Okoye Commended The Naval Chief For Initiating “The Operation Delta Sanity” Which He Is Using To Reposition The Nigerian Navy In Combating Crime Of Oil Theft and Illegal Bunkering In The System.
Dr Okoye Further Said “The Coalition Of South East APC Support Groups Hereby Pass A Vote Of Confidence On The Leadership Of The Chief Of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ikechukwu Ogalla, As We Wish Him Well In The Discharge Of His Duties In Line With The Renewed Hope Agenda Of The President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Administration. We Commend The President Who Has Given Ndigbo A Sense Of Belonging By Appointing One Of Their Own As A Service Chief, A Position That Has Eluded Us In The Last 10 Years.”
“The Naval Chief Is A Fine Gentleman Who Came From A Background Of Excellence, Competence, Integrity And High Discipline. He Deserves All The Necessary Support For Him To Succeed In Office And Not Smear Campaign Of Calumny” , The Group Concluded.
