The governor of Anambra State, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, has condemned the brutalization of pastor, Prophet Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere, popularly known as Odumeje in Onitsha on Thursday.
Odumeje’s church, the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention Deliverance Ministry, was among the buildings that were demolished in line with the state government’s resolve to pull down buildings blocking waterways in the commercial city of Onitsha.
The pastor who came around when the demolition was going on was molested by security operatives, when he attempted to disrupt the exercise.
Governor Soludo in a press statement by his Press Secretary, Christian Aburime, condemned the molestation of the cleric, saying that he has ordered for sanction on the security men involved.
He said: “Yesterday’s outing has evoked emotions, not against the decision of government, but the imperfect and unprofessional manner with which one of the task force members discharged his lawful duty.
“This is highly regretted, and would never happen again. I have instructed that the task force personnel involved in the manhandling of Prophet Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere (Odumeje) be treated in accordance with the rules of public conduct which he roundly failed to uphold.
“On this journey, imperfect steps will be taken, emotions will run wild and opinions will grow thick. What is pertinent to note is that we shall remain undaunted, correct our imperfections, strive to put our emotions in check and aggregate opinions that are in the interest of our overall good.
“We will continue to work to actualize the mandate you have given to us. Nothing short of the best outcomes is guaranteed. On behalf of the government and good people of Anambra State, I condemn the assault, and further ask for your continued support in the fight to restore the dignity of Onitsha, and indeed the totality of our Homeland.”
Soludo appreciated Anambra people for understanding with him as he takes what he called the audacious steps towards making our Anambra a livable and prosperous homeland.
