Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, who also doubles as the Chairman, All Progressives Congress (APC) Governors' Forum, yesterday during a meeting with journalists declared total support for the Buhari-led presidency. However, he lashed out on workers and main opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. Okorocha, while addressing the press said he has no doubt that Muhammadu Buhari will succeed saying that everything he discussed with the president is captured in the 2016 budget. This shows the degree of power and influence the governor has in the current administration. In his words, “I have no doubt in my mind that the old man (Buhari) will succeed. All I pleaded with Buhari to capture in the current fiscal year are in the budget. I want to assure Ndigbo that all that are due to us will definitely get to us.” However, while responding to a question on the current dispute between him and his state labour force with particular emphasis on the new pump price of N145 and four months salaries they are owed, he said he has no issue with the 70:30 ratio agreement with labour, although he vowed that if workers fail to accept their salaries based on the agreement reached, the salaries will be diverted into other projects. The governor said: “Pension and internally generated revenue, IGR, are serious problems for me. Only recently, I ordered all the Board of Internal Revenue officers to go on leave, but they have written to say it was unconstitutional to ask all officers to go on leave.” Okorocha, while also attacking the main opposition party in the country, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and its leadership at both the national and state levels, revealed that there is no single reliable individual whom he can trust or work with.

No governor can threaten the workers, unless there's nothing like Labour Union in such state, or country. Therefor, this is mere talk as long as I'm concerned. If at all it's true. |
