From Ndubuisi Orji, Abuja
Amobi Ogah, the House of Representatives member for Isuikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency, Abia State, has dismissed his suspension by the Julius Abure-led faction of the Labour Party (LP) as a “non-issue”.
In a statement on Wednesday, Ogah reaffirmed his loyalty to Abia State Governor Alex Otti, stating, “I want to make it clear — the so-called suspension means absolutely nothing to me. I am a mandate of the people and my commitment to Governor Alex Otti and his transformational agenda in Abia remains unshakable.”
The Abure faction announced Ogah’s suspension, along with other members, for alleged anti-party activities. Ogah, undeterred, praised Otti’s leadership, saying, “Governor Alex Otti is the best thing that has happened to Abia State in decades. I am with him full time.”
He urged his constituents to remain calm, assuring them of his focus on delivering effective representation. Ogah emphasised his commitment to the people who elected him and the state’s leadership, stating, “No amount of intimidation can stop the will of the people.”
