Otti described the action of the Governor Okezie Ikpeazu-led administration as an abuse of power by the.
A statement in Umuahia yesterday said it was unheard of that a governor would engage the police and other security agencies to stop the people or a political party from celebrating its victory in a peaceful manner.

The governorship hopeful reiterated that no amount of intimidation would stop the people from expressing their joy and feeling of liberation.
