Monarch Warns Okorocha Against Further Attacks On Ihedioha
By Editor,
A former chairman of the Imo State Traditional Rulers Council, Eze Cletus Illomuanya has cautioned the immediate past governor of the state, Senator Rochas Okorocha against invoking the wrath of the people of the state over his continued remonstrations with his successor, Chief Emeka Ihedioha.
Speaking to newsmen in Owerri, Eze Illomuanya who was removed from his office by the Okorocha regime described the accusations leveled against the present Ihedioha regime as unfounded.
“Gentlemen of press, an elder does not stay at home while the she-goat delivers in tethers. Every well meaning Imolites should caution Okorocha against such reckless utterances. He is not above the law neither is he still protected anymore by the immunity clause in our construction.
“Imo is greater than him and whatever selfish interest he is pursing. In civilized climes, people like Okorocha should be in jail by now for the crimes he committed while in office.
“Governor Emeka Ihedioha is a man of peace who is very civil and tolerant. He also does not believe in do or die politics, else Okorocha would haven’t been made to feel the full consequences of his recent misdemeanor.
“However, this must not be abused or misconstrued to be cowardice. A former governor like Okorocha ought to jettison conducts associated with only motor park touts. He must be civil in his conduct and utterances.
“I am therefore, calling on the commissioner of Police, Imo state, the Director, Department of State Services, DSS, Imo state and other security chiefs in the state to hold Okorocha responsible for any break down of law and order in Imo.”
Continuing, he said: “Imo traditional rulers might also be compelled to embark on mass protest against the former governor if he does not caution himself.
“Very importantly, I want to thank governor Emeka Ihedioha for the restraint and maturity he has so far exhibited in the face Okorocha’s rascality and unwarranted provocations.
“The present administration must be allowed uncumbered to deliver on its realistic promises to Imo people. The administration is barely three months old.
“I therefore, wonder why Okorocha should be developing hypertension about such a young administration, which means well for Imo people. A demand for accountability of one’s stewardship after leaving office is no crime.”
