Can You Guess The Number Of Military Checking Points There Is In The South East Region? Just Military Check Points Alone Excluding That Of The Nigerian Police? Can You Guess? Do You Know That The Number Of Military Checkpoints In The South East Alone Is More Than The South West And North Combined? I’m Sure Some Of You Know This Already While Others Are Even Ignorant Of This Fact. It’s Sad That We Have Continued To Ignore This Issue And Have Accepted It As a Norm. This Has Resulted To So Many Armed Confrontations And Outrage In The South East. Yet, Nothing Has Changed, Instead It’s Getting Worse And Worse. The North Where You Have Boko Haram, ISWAP, ISIS And Armed Fulani Terrorists/Bandits Don’t Even Have The Number Of Military And Police Checkpoints The South East Has. The Most Annoying Part Is That These Military Checkpoints Mandate Any Vehicle Approaching Their Checkpoints To Drop Every Passenger They’re Carrying And Making Them Walk On Foot Under The Scorching Sun Before Crossing Their Checkpoints. Let’s Talk a Bit About The Police Checkpoints? Those One’s Will Finish You With Taxation And They’re Ready To Kill You If Refuse To Give Them Money. They Even Go About Harassing Young Igbo Youths Demanding Money From Them And Even Kidnapping Them For Forceful Extortion. Some Of These Policemen Even Demand Payment In Bitcoin And USDT/Cryptocurrency. What About The EFCC? They’re Now On a Rampage In The South East. Igbo Land Is Treated As a Conquered Region. Worst Of All, Igbo Politicians, Governors, Leaders And Elites Have Continued To Do Nothing About This Situation. Igbo Men With Influence Like Arthur Eze And Co, What Have They Done With Their Power To Stop All These Injustice Happening In Alaigbo? In fact, Some Of Them Don’t Even See This As a Problem. And This Is Why The Agitation In The South East Will Never Stop!!!

Mary Ero's new account
They have finally got her where they wanted. None of this is a mistake or a misunderstanding. They deliberately murked the waters so she loses credibility. And unfortunately she fell for it.

BREAKING: Barrister Marshal Has Responded Over Allegations Level Against Him By Businesswoman Tracy Ohiri Amids $70,000 Payment From Minister Of Work MY ATTENTION HAS BEEN DRAWN TO THE FALSEHOOD BEEN SPEWED BY MS TRACY OHIRI “Indeed, the fact that you helped a viper out of a ditch doesn't stop the snake from biting you. It's an undeniable fact that I was the person that rallied public spirited individuals like distinguished Senator Ireti Kingibe, the verydarkman, Comrade Omoyele Sowore, FlagboyNg, Comrade Larry and several other comrades to her aid. “Our focus was that, on no account should state apparatus be deployed to gag free speech. It was on account of our continuous activism that Ms Ohiri is not in prison today. I led other activist lawyers to move her bail orally & even while bail was granted, there was a long standoff & a lucid ploy to send her to prison at all cost. “We eventually succeeded and helped her escape prison. Distinguished Senator Ireti Kingibe tried to broker peace and mediate but she informed me that Mr. Umahi insisted that he wasn't owing her and wouldn't pay unless she can establish the existence of a contract between them. “I spoke to Senator Umahi with Mummy Ireti's phone & he was adamant, he promised he would exhaust the full judicial process to clear his name & promised to pay her in tenfold if the court ruled that he owes her but unless that she would face the full wrath of the law. “We rescheduled a meeting and I promised to revert back upon speaking with Ms Ohiri. When I spoke with her I explained the entire situation to her and explained that she has two options; she either fights on or explore settlement. If she elects to fight on, we would fight with her but she must provide necessary evidence on core issues; I discovered that there was no single real evidence of any contractual agreement between her and the Minister, that there was no evidence that the minister ever engaged her to do any contract and that there was no evidence that the minister ever informed her that what happened to the NELAN Engineers would happen to her and she couldn't show a single evidence that she delivered the goods to the minister's house as she claimed. “Meanwhile Mr Umahi already filed several matters in Ebonyi state against her. When she eventually decided, she said she doesn't want to go to Ebonyi state and that she wouldn't mind peace. We had a follow up meeting with the Minister's lawyer, Mr Abdul SAN, the minister's friend Barrister Joseph Ekumankama, Senator Ireti, Ms Traçy, her husband and I, Marshal Abubakar in attendance. “The meeting ended in a stalemate, Ms Ohiri has a terrible temper & manner, she threw tantrums & insults at everyone in that meeting thus it ended on a sour note. We all left. when the reality of what she had done dawned on her, she called & started begging. I told her clearly, she had chosen war and advised that she gets the evidence to prove her allegations. She pleaded and pleaded that I should not abandon her. She said she can't go to Ebonyi and that she's scared of Mr Umahi. At long last she offered to apologize. “Mr Umahi insisted that he would not pay a dime unless she can show the existence of communications between them prior to 2023. I reached out to Barrister Joseph (who himself was a former minister) and he offered to raise some money if she would recanẗ the false allegations otherwise I should allow her face the music. “I informed her of the decision. I told her that I do not like getting involved in money matters because of the bad blood it normally generates. She said she can't meet them cause she's scared. I told her defamation under Nigerian law is both a crime and a tortious wrong (though I have been at the vanguard of championing the fight to decriminalize free speech but it's still the law). She admitted she had no evidence and agreed to recant so long as the court processes against her would be terminated.

“Seyi Tinubu, We Had a Discussion. You Cannot Beat a Child And Expect The Child Not To Cry.

You People Are Holding a Living God And D€ity In Captivity, And He Can Never Be Compromised No Matter How Much You Try To Convince Him.

You were on tape urging her to do that video. What is all these stories? You are even the one with bad temper throwing tantrums. She was right, the poor have no say in nigeria anymore. Imagine getting jail term for demanding your own money and you are defender of the masses.

This country is finished, tell me where a lawyer to a minister got 70,000$ from to settle the woman in the first place? There are no more genuine activists in this country any longer, everyone is fighting for their Omentum.

Continuation: “They agreed to terminate. It was BARRISTER JOSEPH THAT GAVE ME A TOTAL SUM OF $70,000 TO GIVE TO HER. He informed me that it's not compensation for any contract neither was it admission that they were owing her but just for the sake of peace and my mediating approach to the issue. Barrister Joseph Ekumankama is still alive and can be contacted for verification. It is to be noted that in all of this, I never sought for any pecuniary gains for myself. “BARRISTER JOSEPH AND SENATOR UMAHI CAN CONFIRM THAT EVEN WHEN MONEY FOR COLANUT AND FUEL (IN DOLLARS) WERE OFFERED, I POLITELY TURNED IT DOWN, INSISTING THAT HELPING HER FIND PEACE WAS MY ULTIMATE CONCERN. Sadly, Ms Ohiri has fought every of my Comrade & persons that stood in her defense. She throws tantrums, lie spontaneously & quickly turn friends & allies to foes. Her anger is that I could not get 300,000,000 for her. I explained to her that her initial claim was for 25 million naira. 100,000,000 is far above that and even a court of law would most likely not award her that much, even if she could establish her claim. she told me that she had her international lawyers that would help her get much more and I wished her luck. “She promised to drag my name online unless I meet them to pay her 300,000,000 and that she had lost business thus I must be held responsible and must provide her money. It's so sad that a woman we put in our best defending, at the expense of our lives and liberty could turn out to be this. We befriended a scorpion and got a life lesson. I would surely appraise the situation and take the appropriate legal actions against Ms Ohiri.
