Imo State Governor, Chief Emeka Ihedioha has denied using a whopping N2.8b on monthly sanitation, as alleged by former Governor Rochas Okorocha, describing the allegation as baseless and unfounded.
A statement issued by the Special Adviser, Media to the Governor of Imo State, Mr. Steve Osuji described the former Governor’s claim as unfortunate, explaining that only about Twenty Five Million Naira was used for the monthly sanitation exercise in the state.
According to him, “the administration of Chief Emeka Ihedioha is very prudent and sensitive to the plights of the people of Imo State unlike Okorocha was nototious for unbridled fiscal recklessness in his time. He diverted billions monthly on phony projects, including sanitation but, left Imo in very dirty and miserable situation.”
“Available records show that in eight years, former Governor Okorocha mismanaged about One Trillion Naira belonging to Imo State. We are taking our time in unveiling the numerous atrocities of the last administration and certainly, he must answer for all the evil he did against the people of Imo State.”
“It is very strange that a former Governor could sit and concoct lies. How could Governor Emeka Ihedioha spend N2.8b on sanitation? What was it used for? Okorocha’s problem is that he is so used to lies that he no longer knows the difference between lies and the truth. The state spends only about Twenty Five Million Naira on sanitation and the bulk of the funds come from support from corporate organizations as part of their corporate social responsibility.”
“Okorocha also alleged that Governor Ihedioha has, within two months in office, built a Hotel in Abuja and new houses in Owerri and his village. This further shows that the man, Okorocha is sick. As at today, Governor Ihedioha operates from his private residence in Owerri, following the pillage and vandalisation of Government House by former Governor Okorocha and his cronies. How could he say the Governor is building new houses, when he owns a palatial residence in Owerri, where he operates from and mansions in his village, built many years ago? The question is - are houses built in two months? Only Okorocha can build a house in two months and it collapses after a short while. Imo people already know that Okorocha is a habitual liar and should not be taken seriously”
“The truth is that Okorocha wrecked Imo State. All he is doing is to attempt to divert the attention of Imo people. Unfortunately, Imo people are smarter than that.
He is also claimed that Governor Ihedioha did not win the last election. So who won? He cannot get over the fact that his puppet in-law failed; he is also in pains that he has not been able to extend his dynasty in Imo. But no amount of falsehood will deter the people’s governor, Ihedioha from fulfilling his electoral promise of rebuilding Imo State. The present administration shall remain on course in its efforts to recover Imo people’s funds and property looted by Rochas Okorocha and his cronies.”

This is the case of ole gbe,ole gba. See pot calling kettle black. Ihedioha will be worse than God has.
ReplyDeleteBusiness as usual for all these rogues.
Uche Nwosu sharrap!
DeleteGo look for work, shebi all you stole has been taken away from you 😜
this is hallarious
ReplyDeleteOkorocha failed imolites yes but let ihedioha pay salaries and pension na,fulfil campaign promises and make a difference.
ReplyDeleteimolites are still waiting.
no difference anywhere yet.
Give him time, this is just two months in office.
DeleteLet them recover some monies first
Delete@pay salaries and pension?? Na so e easy?? When their predecessors will always leave debt. IMO people keep complaining, okorocha even paid half salaries and gratuity, unlike states like Abia where that big thief Ikpeazu doesn’t pay a dime. Anyways, We are earnestly waiting for ihedioha, it’s not my everyday press release.
ReplyDeleteSo how much was Imo's entire allocation for the years Okorocha was governor? Why cant this governor investigate, then drag Okorocha to court to face his judgement? Instead of releasing silly statements?
ReplyDeleteUche Nwosu still talking? Cry us a river.
DeleteAre you sure Ihedioha has anything to offer Imo people? Why not run with your vision and let the people see why they are in better hands. Its almost three(3) months now. Long before Ihedioha took over, he had been plotting to take Rochas down, having series of meetings here and there with his cohorts on how to recover loots. Is there no better way of recovering these things while the governor concentrates on governance? This mediocrity needs to stop for Nigeria to move forward please and it's not as if Ihedioha is a SAINT himself.
ReplyDeleteUloma Nwosu keep written, key board warrior. You and your husband should go and look for work in Abuja if Ihedioha and his team has recovered all you were able to grab. Shameless people, keep going on blogs and be writing rubbish any where your father’s atrocities are posted. You will get tired!
DeleteThis Mbaise man will end up killing the trust that people bestowed in or is it on him. Well,if Booboo is still fighting Oga Joe’s ‘kworoption’ then Ihedioha might fight his for the next eight years, abandoning his promises to voters. Naija my beloved country.
ReplyDeleteHe too will re-loot the recovered loot
