Commenting on the accident at weekend in Port Harcourt, Abe said he was set to drag those behind the alleged shooting to court, adding that about two hundred persons witnessed the ugly development.
According to the official, he is currently in the state in order to participate in the ongoing registration of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in his home town, Bera, in Gokhana Local Government Area.
Abe said that after registering as a formal member of the APC, he will cease to sit with the PDP in the House.
“I was not alone there. There were more than 200 people who saw what happened. This young man was there with a camera. He was beaten up and his camera destroyed. So, if nothing happened, why were they eager to make sure that no picture of what happened got out?
“They opened fire on us in their midst; we were not in any crowd; they opened fire on us. To say that I was not shot is the largest understatement or the biggest lie of the century. These people opened fire, teargas, everything was fired everywhere.
“People saw what happened. I wasn’t killed, yes, but to say if they opened fire on me and I did not die, therefore, nothing happened, is the height of falsehood.”
Thus Abe stated he had urged his lawyers to file his case against those involved in shooting
