The Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of the Awka Capital Territory Development Authority (ACTDA), Anambra State, Mr Ossy Onuko, who ordered his aides to brutalise a commercial driver of the GUO Transport for overtaking his convoy, has apologised.
He tendered an apology in a statement he personally signed, noting that he took full responsibility for his action, and called on his friends and well-wishers who have been embarrassed to forgive him.
“I have been inundated with calls and messages from well-meaning friends, colleagues and Ndi Anambra over a video clip that has gone viral on social media regarding an altercation between a GUO driver and myself.

“I was driving in the company of two civil defence officers seated in the back seat of my Toyota Hilux vehicle, there was no convoy,” he stated.
Meanwhile, the transport giant, GUO, whose driver was assaulted, has threatened to sue Onuko, alleging that its driver was beaten with cutlass by political thugs on the order of Onuko.
