Imo State Governor Owelle Rochas
Okorocha has said his decision to build a Guest House for his
predecessor, Chief Ikedi Ohakim, and other former governors was informed
by the provision of the law, which stipulates such gesture for former
governors.
Okorocha explained this while interacting with leaders from Ohakim’s local government area, Isiala Mbano.
He said he has forgotten about all
that happened before and during the 2011 governorship election and is
concentrating on developing the state.
Okorocha said: “I do not have any
problem with the people of Isiala Mbano, because you are my brothers and
friends. In fact, as I speak, I have built a Guest House for Ohakim,
whom I still regard as my brother, Chief Achike Udenwa, the late Chief
Evan Enwerem and the late Sam Mbakwe, as stipulated by the law of the
state.”
He said his administration would treat all councils equally.
The governor explained that the idea
of Community Government Council is to decentralise power and exploit
untapped resources in rural areas to speed up development at the
grassroots.
