January, 31st 4878
Shocking news out of the Government tonight as 16 cabinet ministers, almost 80% of Ntoto's cabinet have been arrested on charges of treason. The conspirators were detained peacefully and President Ogoo under the direct authority of President Ogoo. The cabinet ministers have been sent to the State Jail on the outskirts of Kiego and put under solitary confinement. The Government was given a anonymous tip last week about a plot to overthrow President Ogoo, and when they were at a meeting this morning members of the State Guard arrested them. They have all served Ntoto with honor and faithfully however the Government thinks otherwise. These developments are troubling to say the least and for Ntoto it marks the beginning of maybe tighter control by the current president. The promise of free elections he said would come soon in a statement to Ntoto tonight he said
You may be wondering what happened today. This I will tell you. 16 or so members of my government conspired to kill me, next week at the National Parade. This attempt on my life has shaken me to my core. The Rebellious Rebellion has been foiled! The remaining conspirators will be hunted down, and defeated! The attempt on my life has left me scarred and deformed, but I assure you my resolve has never been stronger! Today the tables have turned, Ntoto has defeated the coup and we will not look back. I assure you justice on these evildoers will be served,
Thank You
Those words by the President were shocking and somewhat poetic. As Ntoto looks to stabilize and grow in power and resolve. The President is set to lead the country forward, now the country will watch as the trial for the treasonists begins.
