According to him, the campaign was part of Governor Alex Otti’s commitment to ending illegal activities in the state and providing relief to the people of Abia.

He said:

We are getting those guys off the streets and making arrests just like the Chairman of Ariaria. He was arrested because we saw thousands of PVCs in his office. We just had to pick him up.

“And those who were into the act of robbing the market women, we had to pick them up because they were always collecting fees and tolls.

“I have no regrets being labelled King Harold if I am doing the right thing.”

He hailed Bishop Sunday Onuoha and Vision Africa who organized the training.

Emetu believed that the training would aid media practitioners’ contribution to the state.
