In a recent video shared by TVC, Osita Oganah, a lawyer, emphasized that the call for the creation of Anioma State transcends individual interests, particularly that of Senator Ned Nwoko. Oganah highlighted that the demand for the new state is a collective aspiration of many people in the region, not merely the pursuit of one prominent figure.
Addressing the widespread perception of Nwoko, Oganah noted the senator's substantial wealth and lifestyle, acknowledging feelings of envy among some people, including himself. "Ned Nwoko's wives are very beautiful, I am jealous and many of us are jealous. He has two private jets and I don't even have any jet. He is blessed, he is wealthy and you can trace his wealth from Paris Club," Oganah stated.
He was quick to clarify that Nwoko's wealth is legitimate, dismissing any notions of fraud. Oganah's comments come in the context of criticism directed at Nwoko, primarily due to his prominent role in advocating for Anioma State. Oganah argued that such criticism is misplaced and detracts from the broader goal.
According to Oganah, the focus should remain on the collective aim of establishing Anioma State rather than being sidetracked by discussions about Nwoko’s personal wealth and lifestyle. He urged the public to support the cause, emphasizing that it represents the aspirations of many in the region, not just Nwoko.
This statement sheds light on the dynamics of the campaign for Anioma State, explaining that the movement is driven by a communal desire for statehood and not solely by the ambitions of a single individual.
