Former Abia State Governor Theodore Orji has denied receiving pension from the state.
In a statement by his Media Adviser, Eddie Onuzutike, the former governor said the report was false.
Orji said his name was included among past governors and deputies to get pensions.
The statement reads: “Let it be known to all and sundry that T. A. Orji is not drawing any such funds from Abia State, knowing the implications of such act.
“As a man who went through the rungs of the civil service ladder – from Administrative Officer to Permanent Secretary – he is aware of the code guiding retirement of officers and so would not violate same.
“It is an avowed code and the journalistic maxim that when in doubt, one should not publish. This is still applicable and should be judiciously adhered to. Reporters and media houses should investigate properly before publishing.
“In the case above, the medium is hereby advised to apologise for the huge embarrassment from the error and desist from such publications to avoid unnecessary legal actions applicable to such misleading information.”

How dare you come out here to refute anything! You should be ashamed of yourself. Are you proud of the way you left Abia State and bought your way into the senate? You are the most greedily corrupt and ugly governor in this history of governance. Your first son is even more irresponsible than you're. What the hell are you even doing in the senate? If there's anybody that MASSOB,IPOB and all the South East youths should take it out with...vent their anger on...it is people like you who raped and ruined their lives.You are a disgusting rogue.May all the evils you and your generation did in Abia catch up with you and spell doom for you! Vultures like you are suppose to wonder and perish in the wild! ASU ANWURU,EWU,OMO OLE,DAM BURU BANKA! The roads and all the pot holes you left will judge you and condemn you!
