It is no longer news that the former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili, through her lawyers, Falana and Falana Chambers, has written a letter to social commentator, Japheth Omojuwa, demanding a public explanation and apology from him for enlisting her as one of the directors of his company, Alpha Reach, without her consent and approval, the former minister had insisted that the popular social commentator must still pay, stating that ‘her lawyers will go all the way’.
Recall that Omojuwa has stated that Ezekwesili was not on the board and never a co-owner of the company.
This was contained in a clarification document issued by the company and signed by Mr. Japhet Omojuwa published on its Twitter handle @alphareach.

The company said it became necessary to clear its name and it’s officers from the media campaign seeking the release of a Colombian citizen charged with money laundering as earlier published by BuzzFeed News.
Others listed as directors of the company include Governor El-rufai Nasir, Damilola Ogunleye, and Japhet Omojuwa.
The Alpha Reach Limited was incorporated in Abuja, Nigeria with registration number 1066507 on September 20, 2012, with its registered office address located at E18 Sharif plaza Aminu Kano Crescent, Wuse II, Abuja.
But despite Omojuwa’s denial and apology, the former minister has insisted that her lawyers will continue to push in ensuring that such act doesn’t reoccur.
Well. Well. Well.

Since the leak, Omojuwa has had not only the former minister to contend with but Nigerians have taken to the micro-blogging site, Twitter, to lambast him, with many calling him unprintable names.
And here’s his response below.
I don’t deserve all these hatred. I completely understand it but I don’t deserve it at all. But keep serving it, because I understand it.
