Finally, Ikpeazu Responds to Smart Adeyemi

Governor of Abia State, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu has responded to Senator Smart Adeyemi saying that he doesn’t drink and do not begrudge the people who do.

He said this on Monday at the launch of the book MADE IN ABA, an autobiography of Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe at the Shehu Yaradua Center Abuja.

In a statement released by his Chief Press Secretary, Onyebuchi Ememanka, he said;

“Let me use this opportunity to respond to whether or not I am a drunkard as posited by someone last week.

I do not drink and I don’t begrudge those who do. At a time when leaders are called to speak on serious issues affecting our people, some choose to dwell on what others do and what they do not do.

Finally, if you are bathing and a mad man takes your wrapper and runs away if you run after him naked, people will not know who is the mad person”.
