Our attention has been drawn to a statement on this platform and others including the Facebook credited to one, Angus Onyeche.
He authored the statement with so much ambiguity aimed at tarnishing the hard earned reputation of our President-General- Mr Larry Onyeche.
We are at a loss as to why he would want to create such unwarranted chaos in our peaceful Agbor communities with such a reckless and malicious statement.
The President General has been very selfless in discharging his responsibilities within the organization since we assumed office 2016, despite obvious limitations impeding our activities for the people of Agbor Kingdom.
We would have ordinarily jettisoned his malicious and evil wrenching statement but in the interest of the teeming public, it is important we provide clarity. In the absence of this clarity, the teeming public might slip into the wicked intentions of the so called “Angus Onyeche.”
The following are responses to the allegations:
1) The Excom make bold to say that CBN NEVER gave out any slot to Ndi Agbor.Agbor children were encouraged to seek for employment like every other Nigerians or indigenous u Communities in Ministries, Departments and Agencies/Parastatals (MDAs).Including Private enterprises/ establishments.
Those emminently qualified were shortlisted for interview and those that passed were appointed.
Our President -General (PG) does not have 2 Children in CBN as alleged
2) ACU does not have a Contract Cleaner or a cleaner as a Staff.
ACU normally invites a Cleaner from time to time, who comes to clean the large hall with two to three other cleaners any time it is to be used for an Occasion.The Head Cleaner and her Team Come in to Clean Pre- and Post any Occasion at 5k each ie 10k at any occasion.This is done once in a quarter or less since 2018 depending of use.
The Payment voucher is in the Secretariat for verification.The Head Cleaner shall be invited to be interviewed by any person of the bribery or kickback issue if need be.
Sometimes, we also engage our two staff ( the clerk and Gardener) to do the strenous cleaning job and they usually engage others to join them at same amount.They grudgingly accept the 10k as being inadiquate
The Head Cleaner is not a relation of the PG
3) To our knowledge, based on the official list of 60 persons that applied for VISA for the 2019 AGBOR USA, held in Houston ,USA, PG Son was not part of the listed names that applied.The list is in our office,Agbor USA Sectretariat and the U S Embassy for verification.
You are free to go and check or call Agbor USA president if in doubt
4) The PG and ACU Excom have always played a mediatory role between Agbor Indigenes agitating for the celebration of certaiin traditional festivals and are against the non adherance of certain traditional acts and HRM.
The PG and ACU Excom cannot be called thief or said to be corrupt when there is NOTHING IN OUR ACCOUNT BUT FOR RECENT COLLECTIONS BY FEW PERSONS.
Calling and Tagging our PG a “Thief” and “green snake in the green grass” is rather highly UNFAIR and unfortunate.It shows that you really do not know him and we really frown at the Statements. Instead of singing his praises and deep appreciation for his wise mediatory role in enabling peace reign in this kingdom,U just chose to defame him this way.
We are not going to be dettered in the quest for PEACE AND HARMONY IN THIS KINGDOM NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU AND YOUR CO-TRAVELLERS AND WAR MONGERS MAY TRY.
Having said that ,we the Excom Members are using this medium to pass implicit VOTE OF CONFIDENCE on our PG- MR LARRY E ONYECHE – as very honest, transparent, patient, resourceful, humble, intelligent and an efficient TEAM PLAYER.
It’s worthy of mention that the allegations were the handiwork of unprogressive disgruntled,fault finding elements of the Community. that are bent at formenting trouble in the kingdom by dragging the name of our amiable PG and ACU to the mud..WITH GOD ON OUR SIDE,THEY WILL NEVER SUCCEED.
We would like to State with emphasis that we have a roburst and cordial relationship with His Royal Majesty,Dein of Agbor
We hereby use this opportunity to admonish the General public to disregard the so called “Angus Onyeche’s” malicious statements aimed at causing crisis in Agbor Kingdom
LONG LIVE AGBOR KINGDOM
LONG LIVE ACU
LONG LIVE HRM, Dr BENJAMIN IKENCHUKU, Keagboekuzi,1.DEIN OF AGBOR KINGDOM
