Okorocha Flees Nigeria As EFCC Queries Diversion of 2bn bailout- Thisday by ekafine(f): 6:32am On Mar 05, 2016
Imo state governor, Chief Rochas Okorocha, has jetted out of the country as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) beams the searchlight on the alleged diversion of over N2 billion from the bailout fund given to the state by the federal government for the payment of civil servants salaries.

The EFCC had rounded up three senior aides of the governor in connection of the diversion of the bailout money.

Those arrested by the commission included the principal secretary to the governor, Dr. Paschal Obi, who was until his appointment a deputy director in the Ministry of Health, in charge of optical services, Director of Finance, Government House, Casmir Uzoho, and Government House Treasurer, Iheoma Kenneth.

Okorocha, who had expressed regrets for accessing the bailout fund from the federal government lamented that the money had put the state in a mess.

According to him, the N26 billion the state took from the Federal Government that was used to pay agitating workers has put Imo in trouble as more money is being deducted from the state’s federal allocation than anticipated

More reason why we must not allow APC in Akwaibom State. Imo state people should continue to pay for electing a non performing looter.

EFCC,If you want the money recovered,all you need do is to arrest uche nwosu,the chief of staff. No need arresting his aide,you can be rest assured that the aide collected that money for the boss.

This is a fact.

I hope those blind, mindless sycophants like Beremx who were screaming "Rochas we know" prior to the elections are proud of themselves.

I told those dullards the man was a criminal, but I had no idea I was preaching to zombies.

Could it be he travelled Friday afternoon ? Because as at 1.30pm Friday he was at the coronation of olubadan .is it that he travelled out and came back to grace the coronation ? Questions questions of is it that the news report is fake ?
One thing is certain though , PMB won't condone corruption of any form and anyone found wanting will face the wrath of the law be he APC PDP APGA ACCORD etc

This makes no sense. A sitting Governor has immunity and therefore cannot be arrested nor prosecuted for any criminal offense. If not Fayose would have been arrested long time ago.
