Things have fallen apart, that seems to be the situation in Imo State as the speaker of the State House of Assembly, Hon Ben Uwajimogu is at war with the State governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha. The SoutheastNewsonline learnt that the Governor is planning to impeach Hon. Uwajimogu who it was gathered is planning to join the PDP. The speaker is not happy with Okorocha whom he accused of running the State as his private estate. The speaker alleged that Okorocha style of governance is crude as he has no recourse to laid down procedures.
For the first time, the speaker admitted that Imo is owing a lot of banks several billions as the governor is doing nothing with the funds instead he is awarding major contracts to himself through ROCHE GROUPS and his inlaw who is a serving commissioner. Speaking further the speaker stated that most contractors in the state are being owed while the governor is busy chasing shadows.
The Speaker also accused Governor Rochas of lying to the whole world and before Imolites that IMO State is the richest in the federation. A claim Rochas made during the IMO Freedom Day event in Owerri in recently.
The Speaker who said that he will go the whole hog to expose Rochas said that the governor bribed some members of the House to impeach his former deputy.
According to Uwajimogu the former deputy governor did not embezzle any money as confirmed by EFCC after their investigation of the case. Meanwhile the speaker has urged Imo people to remain calm as the House of Assembly will soon do what is expected of them.
The speaker also claimed that the allegation of corruption against him is false declared that governor Okorocha is a symbol of corruption and fraud. He stated that that governor is using Rochas foundation to steal imo blind. Okorocha has come to rescue his pocket and not imo, no wonder he is grabbing everything at sight. When contacted the SSA to the governor on media declined to speak on the issue.
I knew it was a matter of time for the truth to surface. I feel that there is more coming... Ndigbo are watching and waiting to know the real, the fake and the pretenders.
ReplyDeleteThat is the more reason why we all need to push this man aside, i know things will definitly fall apart between the speaker and the governor, its only a matter of time. Please let all imolites join Hands and vote in A CREDIBLE SON THAT WILL RESCUE IMO IN THE PERSON OF CHIEF DR OSMOND IMO UKANACHO OF UPP COME 2015.

After reading this gossip, i actually took my time to know the source of this news and whose interest those behind the gossip represent. Alas, it was T.A Orji, the frog-like-eye governor of Abia State and his propagandists, using this silly medium to spread nothing but total falsehood against his political opponents. So who do i believe this madness when the source is totally compromised? For the publishers of this trash, i have one advise for you, take your life back from T.A Orji before 14th Feb 2015 or you are doomed.
ReplyDeleteI still wonder why some Imolites are still blind. It is crystal clear that Gov. Okorocha is very selfish and he is running the state like a privately owned business. What is ROCHE Group, what do they know. They manage adapalm and at the same time handle road construction in the state. Look at all the roads done by roche group, they are all substandard. Imo State cannot boast of a good and credible construction company, its a shame. At least during Udenwa we had MCC, during Ohakim we had Koduc, Zerock, Arab Contractors etc. Our Governor is busy talking too much and making noise. He feels that he knows everything. A wise man once said that true wisdom is knowing that you know nothing. Where do I start and where do I stop, our Governor is no respecter of the rule of law, what is 4th tier? Does it mean that he is wiser that all the other state governors in the federation? Does it mean that he is wiser than all the learned Nigerians that collectively wrote our constitution? Does it mean that other governors are fools? If a governor wants to divert funds approved for the local government, must he go against our constitution. The Federal Government approved N18,000 Minimum wage and he announced that he will pay N20,000. If you are richer and wiser than the Federal Government, why would you pay only levels 1-6 N20,000 and deny those of higher levels even their N18,000 by paying them lesser. Do you think you are better than Chike Obi in Mathematics.
ReplyDeleteHow can a governor come our and say that Imo State is the richest state in the Federation! Think about it, on what basis? How can u give 20,000 jobs, messing up and commercializing government offices. Where do I stop? I have to more sentences.
1. IMOLITES, OPEN YOUR EYES 2. ROCHAS OKOROCHA, CHANGE YOUR WAYS.
