The Managing Director and CEO of Mainland Oil and Gas Co. Ltd, Prince Dr. Chris Igwe has spoken out about what transpired between himself and one Joylin Mateno Ohoro in their highbrow residential area in Victoria Garden City, VGC and the supposed false reports making news on the internet and various media platforms.
According
to the release made by his company, Mainland Oil and Gas Co. Ltd, as a
responsible corporate entity and known business organization in Nigeria, it has
become necessary that we put out this publication to properly inform the
general public on the matter and reassure the public, our business partners,
colleagues, and well-wishers that the matter is being handled legally and we trust
that the law will take its cause.
Without
prejudice to the ongoing criminal investigation by the Nigeria Police and any
other legal action that may be undertaken in the matter, we present the facts
of the matter to the best of our knowledge and information reliably obtained.
Prince
Dr. Chris Igwe says that in the early hours of 3rd May 2024 at about
6:30am; while out for his routine morning exercise within VGC, Lagos, was violently
attacked by some persons on Road 12, VGC, Lagos.
According
to him, the attack was initiated with an unleashed dog while he was running
past House 56A, Road 12 VGC, Lagos. The attackers who are now identified as Mr.
George Ezenwa and Joylin Mateno Ohoro (the occupant of House 56A Road, 12 VGC,
Ajah, Lagos) staged the attack with the aid of the unleashed dog but were
repelled by the quick intervention of a Police Personnel attached to Dr. Igwe who
was close-by, unknown to the assailants.
The
incident was reported to the VGC Police Station and the VGC security team. The
police are currently looking for the man and the occupant of House 56A, Road 12
VGC in connection with the attack.
But
while evading police interrogation and investigation, this narrative says that Joylin
Mateno Ohoro had taken to her social media and other media outlets to peddle
false stories against Dr. Igwe, accusing him of raising fire in VGC.
The
family of Dr. Chris Igwe and the management of Mainland Oil & Gas Co. Ltd
are grateful to God for saving Dr. Igwe in the attack. We also appreciate the gallant
Police Officer for his timeous intervention which led to the rescue of Dr. Igwe
from the assailants.
The assailants, according Dr. Chris Igwe’s legal team, while running from police investigation have resorted to peddling false stories in the internet in a bid to cyberbully Dr. Igwe to withdraw his criminal petition against them and wipe up public sentiment in defense of their failed attempt on the life of Dr. Igwe on 3rd May 2024 but we are confident that justice will be served.
The assailants can run but can never hide forever. The law will catch up with them for their nefarious actions.
