Avu mechanic village in Owerri West Council Area of Imo State under the aegis of Nigeria Automobile Technicians Association, NATA has warned one Prince Jeff Ukachukwu to desist from frustrating establishment of CNG auto gas conversion training centre in Imo State by Chief Executive Officer of Cocean Oil &Gas.

The mechanics regretted that instead of Jeff Ukachukwu to use his connection as he claimed to encourage and commend Cocean Oil&Gas for bringing such innovative technology in Imo State by seeking for government collaboration so as to fast-track the project,he is busy lobbing his way to build lock-up shops in the area designated for training of mechanics for free of charge by a private investor.

According to them,”the CNG auto gas conversion training centre will enhance the mechanics as well as moving petroleum vehicles to gas. It is a welcome development. People are going to move petrol to gas. Abia State Government is currently funding Cocean 100% for the establishment of CNG in their State. All we need to do is to give Cocean moral support.

Speaking to newsmen on Monday 12th February,2024, the Chairman of Avu mechanic village,Comrade Ifeanyi Ugwoegbu regretted that prince Ukachukwu has continued to attack Cocean Oil &Gas who is currently building CNG Training Centre that would add value to the mechanics.

Comrade Ugwoegbu popularly called “Bjshop” flayed a media report that Ukachukwu was appointed Avu mechanic village developer by the State Government since 2018 challenging him to set the records straight with documents indicating his appointment as a developer.

He narrated that Ukachukwu came into Avu mechanic village through Imo State Chairman of NATA, Comrade Kyrian Nnadi who by all means wants to build lock-up shops on the land allotted to Dr. Chinedu Ndubuisi of Cocean Oil &Gas.

The Mechanic village Chairman recalled that they have confirmed through the office of Survey-General that State Government allotted parcel of land to Cocean Oil &Gas where it currently building CNG Training Centre.

According to him,”Jeff Ukachukwu recently entered into mechanic village through Kyrian Nnadi on mission of building his own filling station as well as building a hall worth of five million naira only for the mechanics for which he has refused to come for the review as demanded by the Mechanics.
I wonder why somebody is attacking the only private investor that is interested in bringing CNG to Imo State. Other states have gotten their own CNG except Imo State. This CNG Training Centre will benefit our mechanics. Jeff Ukachukwu should stop attacking Cocean on pages of newspapers. Full stop.
We have heard about the Newspaper publications from both Cocean Oil &Gas and Prince Jeff Ukachukwu,and we want peace in Avu mechanic village. Both Dr Chinedu Ndubuisi and Prince Jeff Ukachukwu are our people.Even,Dr Victor Mere, the former Imo House of Assembly member for Owerri Municipal was also one of the investors, Kyrian Nnadi and former Chairman of the mechanics brought to the mechanic village, Avu. what we need is to make sure that what ever is due for the mechanics gets to them while all our investors should equally come forward and do the needful to the Mechanics.
Cocean Oil &Gas land is not only the parcel of land we have in Avu Mechanic village. We have other parcels of land that need development”.

“Above all,what we have witnessed so far between Kyrian Nnadi and Jeff Ukachukwu is politics. No mechanic including Kyrian Nnadi have any right to allocate any land to any investor and we are condemning any such claim in its entirety, the issue of Kyrian Nnadi laying claims on the Avu mechanic village land is null and void as nobody has the legal document for Avu mechanic village except Imo State Government,even when we are privileged to have the official MOU between the Imo State Government and Avu,the host Community. I challenge both Jeff Ukachukwu to come to us for clarification”,he concluded.

In a swift reaction,Cocean CEO,Dr. Chinedu Ndubuisi recalled that Kyrian and his agents had severally destroyed his fence which he has instituted legal action against him. “The matter started from New Owerri Police Station to the Scorpion Unit of Imo State Police Command, Owerri. Kyrian did not appear before the court last week. I challenge Jeff Ukachukwu to provide appointment letter as Government appointed developer. I challenge them to call the name of the permanent secretary I connived with to get my land”,he stated.

When contacted via cellphone to ascertain his own side of the story,Prince Jeff Ukachukwu’s phone rang severally without response
