His advisers would have advise him to resign, rather they were urging him to defend the indefensible.

He is just a learner in the Act of Corruption.

Engaging in corruption directly by himself instead of using proxies (Political Job men).

Even if it were a setup, at his level as Deputy Governor and Commissioner for Works, he should anticipate such dirty politics and use front-men with no traceable root to his person or office.

He was just a learner.

How?

I can confidently claim one man standing if it was the most difficult sin to avoid. However, being in a leadership position for various times and places including my various involvement in probing corruption allegations have help me to understand the in-depth tricks and cover-ups inherent in such evil monster ravaging our society.

He denied ever collecting bribe. At least they've not proven that he actually did collect bribe.

The debate was featured on Channels Television last two weeks by one barrister who doubles as the leader of the Probe Committee and a PDP member, he argued with verifiable and undeniable facts while presenting their findings in the investigation.

The Barrister was even accusing the Governor of trying to hinder them from doing their constitutional duty and was furious about it. At that point Governor Okorocha has to give way to save his reputation.

Should we praise Rochas for this development? At the last count, a good number of important persons or associations that played key roles in the election of Rochas have been decapitated by the same Rochas? The ones I can remember include APGA, Chief Victor Umeh, Peter Obi, Martins Agbaso (elder brother of Jude Agbaso),etc

Rochas should watch it and remember what happens to the man who climbed up and destroyed the ladder with which he got there.

That super story is NONSENSE. The TRUTH is that the governor wants the deputy governor out. Pure and simple.

This is the house of assembly conspiring with the governor to do a dirty job.

Within minutes that the former deputy governor was removed, a new name was sent to the house and it was approved immediately. Consequently, within minutes that the former deputy governor was removed, a new deputy governor emerged.

This is a miracle, made in Imo.

There are many companies, including JPros Nig. Plc, doing business in Imo State without mobilization process and all were introduced by Rochas Okorocha. This is good for Owerre people who never listened.

The governor must have wanted him out..he just used his pawns to do the job.

If the governor does not want his deputy out in Nigeria, there's no way he would be impeached. All it would take na some ghana-must-go bags.
