The Civil Society Network Against Corruption has described the visit and honour of South Africa's President, Jacob Zuma by the Imo state governor, Rocha's Okorocha, as "embarrassing".

Lanre Suraj, CSNAC's chairman, said in a statement on Sunday that the honour bestowed upon Mr. Zuma would inspire the president to tell his people that he was celebrated in Nigeria.

Mr. Zuma, who is facing multiple accusations of corruption, fraud, and money laundering in his country, arrived Imo state on a two-day working visit on Friday.

The South African government said Mr. Zuma would be in Owerri, to "strengthen socioeconomic relations and further deepen existing cooperation in the field of education ".

While in owerri, Mr. Zuma bagged the chieftaincy title 'Ochiagha' (warlord) , as well as had his statue unveiled in the state capital.
