The governor said that he was there to talk to the soldiers about the killing.
Otti continued, saying that the government’s attempts to obtain intelligence on the incident were beginning to bear fruit and would continue.
“We have started getting very credible information; this intelligence gathering will continue, but I do not want it to dampen your morale.
“We have all been working together to secure this state in the last one year that I have been the Governor of the State, and I want to encourage you to continue your work; don’t get distracted.
“I believe, from credible intelligence available to us, that this criminal act may have been executed by people who are opposed to the progress and the good things that are happening in Abia.
