Rivers murder: Amaechi's plot to free Chidi Lloyd through back door uncovered

Rivers Gov, Amaechi

The Rivers State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has uncovered plot by the State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi to use an Ahoada High Court Judge, Honourable Justice Charles N. Wali, to obtain all manner of Orders to free Mr Chidi Llyod and subvert the course of justice. 

The deliberate, premeditated and calculated actions of Mr Chidi Lloyd, member of the Rivers State House of Assembly, representing Emohua Constituency on December 30, 2013, sent to their early graves, a serving Police Officer and a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, from Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State.

We place on record that the same man, Chidi Lloyd, is currently standing trial for another attempted murder of his colleague, Hon Michael Chinda, who represents Obio/Akpor Constituency 2, in the Rivers State House of Assembly.

It is regrettable that once again the government of Rivers State, particularly its head, Governor Rotimi Amaechi would be in the lead in assisting Mr Chidi Lloyd to evade justice. 

We are aware from information available to us and interview granted by Governor Amaechi's Chief Press Secretary, Mr David Iyofor that government is turning to "their lawyers" to sort out the matters concerning a suspected felony.          The death of citizens of Nigeria means nothing to the governor of Rivers State.

Each time this kind of statement was made in the past concerning Mr Chidi Llyod's previous criminal acts, it meant going to High Court Ahoada presided over by Honourable Justice Charles N. Wali to obtain all manner of Orders to free Mr Chidi Lloyd and subvert the course of justice.

We respect the integrity of the Rivers State judiciary, but we are also well aware that High Court Ahoada as currently constituted is nothing other than a ministerial department of the Rivers State Governor's office. 

In the circumstance, we inform the people of Rivers State that we as a responsible political party shall not watch with our hands folded, sit back and watch as the governor of Rivers State once again subvert the course of justice to save his Chief Political Thug, Mr Chidi Lloyd.

We state without equivocation that we shall seek justice for Mr Kingsley Ejiohuo, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, whom Mr Chidi Lloyd callously killed. 

We shall also seek justice for Police Officer, Obadiah Urang whom Mr Chidi Lloyd also mindlessly killed. 

Furthermore, we shall also seek justice for others mindlessly injured and maimed by Mr Chidi Lloyd. 

We warn Honourable Justice Charles N. Wali who has clearly shown his political stance to keep completely off this matter.

Finally, the PDP hereby extends its condolence to the families of all those killed or injured by the deliberate action of Mr Chidi Lloyd.
