Otti said it was disheartening that pastors and other leaders within the Christendom are now the ones who bear the brunt of what appears to be a deliberate policy of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) government led by Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State, to impoverish public servants in the state, especially teachers who are owed many months of salary arrears.
The LP governorship candidate spoke on Wednesday in Amuda, Isuochi, Umunneochi Local Government Area of Abia State, at a meeting with some select Church leaders in the communities in the area, while on a campaign tour. He was responding to a scathing remark an Assemblies of God Church clergy made about the economic hardship his parishioners, some of who are teachers, are going through due to non payment of their salaries.
