Okonkwo Samuel
Senator Utazi has once more apologized to Senator Ifeanyi Ubah over his misunderstood submission at the floor of the Senate.
Senator Utazi, further penned another letter to Senator Ifeanyi Ubah where he once again regretted the fall out of his misconstrued outing on the floor of the plenary a few days ago, an outing that has since generated heated debate as a result of exploitation by the Political opponents of the Distinguished Senator whom he described as “Political Jobbers ” and asks that his Distinguished colleague forgive the embarrassment caused him.
“It is regrettable that my submission on the floor of the Senate is misunderstood and is being exploited by political jobbers and detractors of Senator Ubah “
He further eulogised his pan-igbo agenda posturing, as he recalls the leadership role Senator Ubah played during the Air Peace saga then, provision of employments and additional revenue for the federal government through the deployment of his wealth of experience in the downstream petroleum sector etc.
Below is the extract of Senator Utazi’s Press Release.
“Most Distinguished Senator Ifeanyi Ubah,
Upon further misunderstanding of my earlier Press Release, I am further constrained to state that my Point of Order was NEVER directed against you, as I never mentioned your name in my submission on the floor of the Senate, but against the bad press on INNOSON VEHICLE MOTORS, IVM Brands. It’s very unfortunate that the local Nigerian politics I mentioned in my submissions on the floor of the Senate is misinterpreted to mean Anambra politics. This is not true.
My submission on the floor of the Senate was consistent with my known history of defending all hardworking and entrepreneurial Nigerians, especially businessmen of South East Geopolitical Zone, contributing to the growth of the economy, Sen Ifeanyi Ubah inclusive.
In the same vein, Sen Ifeanyi Ubah, following the social media mention of his name took turn at the floor to clear his name and established that he is one of the major promoters of IVM products. I want to say that I never intended to be drawn into Anambra politics or ever intended to put Sen Ifeanyi Ubah in bad light , as demarketing his brother’s IVM products. It is regrettable that my submission on the floor of the Senate is misunderstood and is being exploited by political jobbers and detractors of Senator Ubah.
Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah is a great Igbo Patriot of note who has made the entire Igbo Race proud through his numerous operations in the Downstream Sector of the Petroleum Industry, where he has created employment for countless Nigerians, and continues to help grow our economy. As the Vice Chair of the Senate Committee on Upstream, Sen Ifeanyi Ubah has brought his wealth of experience, since his entry into the Senate, to bear on the deliberations both on the floor of the Senate or in Senate Committee.
As a trusted Igbo Leader who believes in the Igbo philosophy of ‘Onye aghana nwanne ya’, Sen Ubah sponsored a motion on AIR PEACE Airlines, which ALL of us in the Senate backed.
I have made this Press Release to further clarify any innocent submissions on the floor of the Senate, that It was directed at Sen Ifeanyi Ubah.
Wishing Sen Ifeanyi Ubah the best in his political career.
May God bless us all.
Senator Chukwuka Utazi
Enugu North Senatorial District”
