$9.3m ARMS DEAL: IJAW MONITORING GROUP BLAST ACF

The Coordinator, Ijaw Monitoring Group, IMG, Comrade Joseph Evah, has described the  attack on the President of Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor,  by the Arewa

Consultative Forum, ACF, and some groups over the $9.3 million seized in South Africa as hasty and barbaric as investigations by the South African government  and the Nigeria Senate who had commenced such invesgigations have not concluded.

Evah, who was the Coordinator of Non-Indigenes for the Actualization of June 12, during the June 12, 1993 struggle, in a statement, said: “Recently, Pastor Oritsejafor set up a private university in Delta State, if tomorrow a staff of the university uses the facility to engage in a questionable activity, would that mean blackmailing the owner of the university as a criminal?  This concerted condemnation of an illustrious son of the Niger Delta without fair hearing in a serious matter that is attracting international attention is unacceptable to our people”.
