PRESS RELEASE – Onuorah, abducted Editor-in-chief, released on bail

LIMITED STATEMENT ON ABDUCTION OF MR MADU ONUORAH BY POLICE

Limited statement by the Management of Global upfront Newspapers on our Publisher and Editor-in- Chief, Mr. Madu Onuorah who was abducted from his residence by the Nigerian Police on Wednesday, 22/5/2024 evening.

We have confirmed the release (on bail) of our Publisher/Editor-in-Chief, Mr. Madu Onuorah who was abducted by men of the Ebonyi Police Command on Wednesday 22/5/2024 evening from his residence in Lugbe, Abuja.

He was released late Thursday, 23/5/2024, night by Enugu State Police Command who requested the Ebonyi Police to abduct him for them.

We are awaiting a full briefing by Mr.Onuorah and our lawyers before issuing a full statement on this
matter and the next line of action.
We solidly stand by our Editor-in-Chief and the harmless story we published.
We insist the police station is not a court of aw where alleged defamation cases are tried.

We want to thank the Journalism and Media famiy, friends and welwishers, and all defenders of
freedom of expression who rose against budding tyranny.

Signed:
Management of Global upfront Newspapers
