blackmailers whose stock in trade is to cook up unfounded stories in other to frame up Political appointees serving in the ruling All Progressive Congress party led federal government with scandalous false allegations with no proof so as to extort millions of dollars from public office holders serving under Mr President Administration. This is the true story of one Jackson Ude, who claimed to be a journalist, but adopt this kind of fake malicious and nefarious technique with his ally who are known as disgruntled criminally corrupt minded personalities in the region to dent public office holders and bring them down in other to siphon millions into their pockets.
“The group said they are not surprised that the same men have started to cook up unfounded purported cheap blackmails and series of fake documents flying all over everywhere on the social media in the internet for a bribe allegation from a foreign oil company called SAIPEN and now they have made it the turn of Engr.
