CLO lauds Commissioner for rejecting N2m to subvert justice

THE Civil Liberties Organization, CLO, Anambra State branch has extolled and commended the Anambra State Commissioner for Women and Children Welfare, Ify Obinabo, for her patriotism, transparency, integrity, steadfastness and humanitarian selfless sacrifices and services to the state and beyond.

The CLO made the remarks in a press statement issued in Awka,  Anambra State and endorsed by Vincent Ezekwueme, Chairman and Chidi Mbah, Secretary respectively.

Themed “when a leader is right be with him, if he still is right, stay with him and when he is wrong leave him” commended the uncommon and unprecedented impeccable character and integrity displayed by the Commissioner, when she arrested a lady, Ekpereamaka Okonkwo, and her husband from Otolo Nnewi at Oba operating illegal brothel in which under aged girls between 13 to 17 years were used for prostitution and sex slaves and the proceeds go into the pocket of callous and unconscionable woman.

“It is a cheering news and moral booster and a clear indication that there are still few patriotic, compassionate and God fearing charismatic leaders ready, willing and able to right the wrongs of the society and entrenched morality and sanity in the state and country.

“It is no exaggeration, but existential reality that Soludo administration is morally grounded and ever ready to eradicate impunities and immoralities in the state,” the statement said.

It will be recalled that the CLO lauded him last year when he sealed a hotel in Awka where sex party was held.

Pertinently, the Civil Society Organizations, Anambrarians and Nigerians are still expecting the prosecution of the culprits to act as deterrent to others.

The CLO appealed to the Commissioner to beam her searchlight and uncover other places where such satanic and despicable brothels exist in the state for quick interventions in order to restore normalcy, sanity and decency in the state.

“We equally commend her for rescuing under aged children used for begging in various parts of the state as well as some mentally retarded people.

“To the glory of God, she is always alive, alert, awake and aware of her responsibilities and tackle them with dexterity and patriotism and other political office holders should emulates her,” the CLO added.
