According to the chieftain of ADF in Lagos, Chief Emmanuel Mok the book in question was put together many months ago by the Foundation without knowing that Obi would enter the presidential race, saying it will essentially open the eyes of Nigerians and others on the miracle the former Anambra Governor performed in that state.
He said ADF wrote the book because they were over-whelmed by Obi’s performance; that their intention was to survey the state of development of the eastern parts of the country at the time and was surprised by this Governor who really meant business in Anambra state.
It should be recalled that the ADF National President said sometimes ago that the the book was not essentially about Peter Obi as a person, but about the exemplary and purposeful leadership he provided that had remained a beacon of good governance.
Furthermore, he relayed how the CEO of INNOSON Vehicle Manufacturing, Chief Innocent Chukwuma asked ADF to thank Obi for the unprecedented support he offered him by paying him upfront for vehicles supplied to the state as well as the part he played when his consignment was seized by customs.
Apparently, this a very different situation whereby Innoson Motors is in court with Imo State because Gov. Hope Uzodinmma’s government has not paid for the vehicles worth N2.5billion supplied the state by the motor company
