As the dust raised by the recent
attack on the convoy of Gov. Owelle
Rochas Okorocha at Awa
community in Oguta local
government area of Imo state is yet
to settle, investigation has revealed
that the attack seemingly hatched
to humiliate and embarrass the
governor ahead of the forth-coming
rescheduled Oguta state assembly
seat election is part of the
strategies mapped out by the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to
discourage the governor from
visiting Oguta before the conduct of
the election.
Sources in PDP revealed that some
chieftains of the party met and
resorted to activate strategies
aimed at whittling down the
influence of Okorocha whose
numerous projects in Oguta local
council are building overwhelming
support for the APGA candidate,
Hon. Walter Uzonwanne to win the
rescheduled Oguta state assembly
election.
Recall that Okorocha was attacked
last Saturday at Awa community
while on an inspection of the
ongoing 15 kilometer road project
which cut across the community.
The state government is also
building over 20 pre-cast model
schools, new general hospital,
Oguta Blue Lake of Treasury and
first ever Marine University in Oguta
LGA.
The source further revealed that
Sen. Hope Uzodinma, Eze Cletus
Ilomuanya and ex-governor Ikedi
Ohakim mandated the PDP
candidate, Chief Eugene Dibiagwu
to recruit some youths to confront
Okorocha whenever sighted at
Oguta for the usual road project
inspection to rubbish the support
his regular presences is building for
the APGA candidate.
“The attack on the Gov. Okorocha’s
convoy is part of our strategy to
discourage him from this constant
visit to Oguta. The chances of our
candidate is threatened anytime he
visits, and having discovered that
the governor is using these projects
to campaign for APGA candidate,
our leaders came up with a strategy
that will discourage him from
further visit. We are not afraid
because our leaders have the
support of the presidency and even
if they arrest any of those boys or
Chief Eugene Dibiagwu who led the
attack, nobody will sleep over in the
police custody.
We will definitely prove to them
that PDP owns this country” the
source boasted.
The source added that the attack
may not be unconnected with the
recent meeting convened by
Uzodinma in his Abuja residence
with Ohakim, Ilomuanya and Sen.
Ifeanyi Ararume in attendance
shortly after their colossal
disappointment at the last Supreme
court outing. The agenda of the
meeting, it was gathered, was to
plan certain actions that upon
implementation will destabilize the
state and possibly create the
needed atmosphere to actualize
Okorocha’s removal as governor of
Imo state.
Uzodinma was said to have boasted
that for as long as Okorocha
remains committed to the All
Progressives Congress (APC), the
presidency would continue to
unleash its security agencies
especially the ICPC and EFCC
against his administration and its
key functionaries.
According to our source, the
senator further boasted that the
presidency would soon carry out
another round of arrest of some key
government officials to cripple the
state government as a way of
paying Okorocha in his own coin for
contributing eloquently in the re-
election of Rivers state governor,
Chibuike Amaechi as the chairman
Nigerian Governors Forum.
Meanwhile, traditional rulers in the
state have raised the alarm over
threat to the life of Gov. Okorocha
by some disgruntled Imo sons
whom he said are uncomfortable
with the performance and
achievements of the governor
within two years in office.
Addressing newsmen in his office at
Owerri, the state capital, the
chairman, Imo State Council of
traditional rulers, HRM Eze Samuel
Agunwa Ohiri, described the attack
on the governor by thugs led by
Hon. Eugene Dibiagwu, the PDP
candidate for the forthcoming
Oguta state assembly election as
condemnable and gross disrespect
to the office of the governor of Imo
state.
The monarch who maintained that
Okorocha as a governor is at liberty
to move freely to every part of the
state having secured the mandate
of Imo people to govern the state,
warned that any harm inflicted on
the governor would definitely set
the state ablaze owing to the love
Imo people have for him.

This about sums it all up. These people might not be able to visit their home towns again if they continue with this approach. Uzodinma is from Oru LGA while Ilomuanya is a retired armed robber/419 turned traditional ruler from Orlu LGA. His partner was John Nebolisa that also became a traditional ruler but is now late. We all know Ararume and Ohakim. I need not say more.

Mr man stop whining!! Okorocha brought it upon himself.His Convoy knocked down a man and to worsen matters his security details went ahead to beat him up.If not for the fact that he is a Governor with enormous security detail I am very sure he ll have been lynched.

His romance with the APC has also alienated himself from his people.Don't be fooled that election is between the APC and PDP,it has notting to do with APGA,Okorocha is only using the APGA platform because the APC is yet to be registered

Abagworo,

On a side note,
This article is filled with different projects attributed to the Governor. We'd like to see pictures.

you are right. Why will a reasonnable person hit somebody with his vehicle and still went ahead to beat him up.

Lies and cheap propaganda, just read through the statments you will notice is a lie. The funny part is the presidency support, I know that APC and co has formulated this nonsense and unfounded story just to drag in the presidency in this issue. Everything that happens this days to the opposition they will find a way to link it to the president.

Is this all you could come up with from your 'source'? Cos its such a dumb line in my very humble opinion. one thing that have repeated itself continously is rochas' disregard for fellow road users. He did it to sen. Chris Anyanwu when they fell out(so many of us blamed chris, despite the life threatening beatings one of her aides sustained), he did it to the guy he ran into along orlu road(he was arrested & taken to owerri & was released after much public outcry and given #200,000), now this orlu incident. You cant hit a kid and ask him not to cry again. Rochas should not allow his over zealous details cause his person more harm than he could manage

Abagworo, Abagworo, Abagworo, how many times did i call you? Please look before you leap into wrong conclusions. Agbaa mbu, ya atuo n'ogwe, a gbaa abuo, ya atuo n'ogwe, e kworo ogwe pia aku? Why must our governor always be in the news for such acts of brigandage? If he is not slapping a protocol officer to a fellow governor, he is ordering the beating up of a senator's driver. He flagrantly abuses traffic rules, beats up the gate man for not opening the gate fast enough. HABA! It seems we enthroned Lawlessness the day Okorocha was sworn in as governor. Rather than cook up lies for damage control, his supporters should try to reach him and advise him to grow up and act like the first citizen of the state and not like a street tout.

@op what a cheap lie,ur a big fool for diverting from the truth.okorocha convy knocked down an okada man and instead of treating him they started beating the man and ur here calling pdp did pdp did dat go get a life
