The power tussle between Imo state governor Owelle Rochas Okorocha and Abia State governor T.A Orji entered a dramatic state last weekend as Abia State government expel the popular Imo Transport Cooperation popularly know as ITC out of the state,according to nigerian reporter source, the hasty decision was made after the owners of the land which abia state transport corporation also know as abia line is using in mcc road owerri ask them to leave for reasons yet unknown to us.

The expulsion of ITC from major cities in the state have made it difficult for passengers coming from owerri to umuahia to reach their destination with easy, because we learnt they are being offloaded at Onuimo which is the border between abia and imo state along the umuahia road axis, the passengers will now have to enter another taxis from onuimo to umuahia thereby doubling there transport cost.

A sad passenger who spoke on a position of anonymity said that he was not surprised with the decision of Abia state government as the state is already known for segregating between Indigens from non-Indigens.

We are still waiting for comments from both state govt. representatives on the issue

T.A Orji's bad leadership finally enter jet mode

I knew from day 1 that T.A Orji will fire back. Okorocha made a wrong move but it does not justify why T.A Orji should pay back with the same coin. Both men are not helping the poor masses using those vehicles to travel.

Show of shame by two SE governors!

This T.A. Orji will definitely rot in jail when time comes.
you guys need to go to Abia state to see what this buffoon has turned it into. smh

What do we call this ?

Racism,tribalism,xenophobia or ibophobia,orjiphobia abi owellephobia ?

If ibos can discrimintate against themselves,why should other parts of Nigeria worry about ibos intolerance towards them ? If na fashola expel them now,the whole world will hear about it.

Seems to me it was a private property and the landlord posssibly had receive a more profitable offer, i don't see why Orji would retaliate, same way he chased out workers who were not of Abia origin from the civil service.

SMH.. these two old men should be able to sit down and sort out things amicably with the masses at heart.

Remember telling my friend over the weekend that t.a orji will retaliate....that man is so predictable walahi....i read the response of okorocha's information commissioner and i kinda align with what he said..t.a orji is just uncouth and irredeemably irresponsible to say the least...this guy started sacking non-abia indigenes in the civil service...now he is busy trying to bring division in igboland...what am i even saying...abia and ebonyi has always been the bane of development and progress in igboland...hardly educated people and reeking of backwardness...they should just separate them from the rest of S.E...nobody will miss them...

Do you recall the case of the sacked 5000 non indigenous ibo civil servants also.

I heard t.a orji is from jupiter

Why is Imo fighting Abia? They are sister states and yet they give each other akpo, which is not suppose to be. Others will be laughing at us, while we watch our dirty linen outside. Both sides should come together to resolve this small issue abeg. Okorocha should lead in ensuring that both transport corporations start their normal operation in both states. Ndi Igbo ndewo nu!

I battle with myself to understand those two, T.A and Owelle and what they are fighting for.
Even if it is a private property, why not allow Abia State to get the offer of First Refusal?
Diplomacy should have been emplyed here. I hate to admit it, but this guys are disgracing the Igbos more.
I just passed ITC park and it has been sealed. I know Abia Official Thugs, they won't look kindly on any ITC motor they see in Abia state, I can bet on that.

This story is becoming so puerile and annoying.
Very very annoying.
It just pains me when you see these animosity slowly creeping in between two sister states.
A simple situation that can just be resolved with the application of common sense.
Well sha,
Common sense is not common,
Especially,
When you have a confused clown and a visionless non performing sittight manning the helm of affairs of the two states respectively.

Bigflamie: This T.A. Orji will definitely rot in jail when time comes.

u and who will go? Shm

Two visionless and shameless governors disgracing igboland. What a shame.
