Okorocha Denies Pairing Ihedioha To Sack Uzodinma
Senator Rochas Okorocha has denied any alliance with the immediate past governor of Imo State, Chief Emeka Ihedioha directed at removing Senator Hope Uzodinma as governor.
In a statement issued by his media adviser on Sunday, Okorocha while implying that the story came from within government circles asked those behind the story to search their conscience if they had not failed in agreements reached with him.
“We also urge those behind this fictitious alliance story to search their conscience and see whether there are things they ought to have done, which they have failed or refused to do, and for which they are being troubled by their conscience, since conscience is an open wound, only truth can heal,” Okorocha said in the statement issued by his media adviser, Sam Onwuemeodo.
“To say the least, Okorocha is not in alliance with Ihedioha for removing Governor Uzodinma or for any other reason. Those behind the story should stop making mockery of the APC or the State.”
Noting the support for Uzodinma from him and former All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA governorship candidate, Senator Ifeanyi Ararume who supposedly ‘supplied’ the crowd that witnessed Uzodinma’s inauguration, Okorocha said:
“We also add that, Okorocha, Uche Nwosu and Ifeanyi Araraume and their large Supporters in the State have been supporting Governor Uzodinma. They all attended his inauguration and supplied the crowd at the venue of the event. Made AA and APGA members in the House of Assembly to move to APC to enable the Party have the majority.
“Even AA members in the House of Representatives also moved to APC. And none of them or any of their Supporters has joined issues with the governor or the government in the State, so, what is the problem?
“The APC government in the State has also allowed the Panels set up by the PDP government against Okorocha to continue and Okorocha has not spoken against that. But he has only gone to Court to Complain that the EFCC and the numerous panels, are all probing him on the same issues.”
