A video showing the moment the Abia state governor, Alex Otti, lashed out at a journalist, Chika Nwabueze, during a media parley he held, has made the rounds on social media.

 

 

 

During the media parley, Nwabueze stood up and asked the governor to provide verifiable data to show that beyond road infrastructure, he has indeed made economic and positive impact in the state since assuming office in May 2023.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Governor Otti felt irritated by the question and lashed out at Nwabueze. According to him, the journalist is supposed to have the data and ask questions based on the data he has.

 

‘’You have not said anything. Do you live in Abia? If you live in Umuahia, you are the one that will provide data. he point is that that this media chat is a serious media chat, we are not here to massage opposition. You can’t come to a media chat and you are asking me to provide data about the measurable impact and work that is being done in the state where you live. It is irresponsible. That we throw this open for people to ask question doesn’t mean that people should be stupid. Lets take this seriously.” Gov Otti said
