On Wednesday, Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha declared that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, lacks the power to withhold his Certificate of Return.

Okorocha described the decision of INEC to withhold his Certificate of Return after being declared winner of the Imo West Senatorial election as unfortunate and unconstitutional.

Speaking at the state’s Government House in Owerri, the state capital, Okorocha claimed that INEC was being used by those fighting to stop him from going to the Senate.

According to the governor, it is only the courts that have the powers to nullify any election after a winner has been declared, insisting that the electoral umpire does not have such power.

He said: “In my own case, my Certificate of Return has not been issued and I wonder why INEC will withhold my Certificate for a frivolous reason, without hearing from me. I am not a violent person and those who know me know that. This is why we have peace in Imo State.

“The Returning Officer could not have done that under duress under the watchful eyes of the Police, DSS and party agents. I am not unmindful of the facts that those who are fighting me from Abuja are anxious to see me removed as a Senator. I urge INEC to do the right thing immediately by releasing my Certificate.

“Let me tell every Nigerian that I fought no one and no one should fight me. If anyone fights me, he will be the loser at the end of it all. My INEC Certificate cannot be touched or seized, doing so is belittling democracy in Nigeria. It is only the Tribunal that has the right to say otherwise once a result is declared. INEC cannot seize my Certificate by mere petition written by somebody in a case I was not given the opportunity to present my own side of the story.”

Is Mr. Iberiberism trying to pass a message to Nigerians by claiming INEC are being used by some certain people to fight him.

Very obvious INEC takes orders from the APC, no wonder the elections were a sham.

Senator to go and represent which state?

Bros eh, go collext am make we see.

just be like make I give this man an iberiberism slap, if I slap you, you go turn to a statue with no head..
you want to truncate this democracy...

Okorocha Rochas does not deserve to represent his zone in the senate.


Okorocha set development of his Imo West senatorial zone - Orlu - many decades backwards, even suffocated existing govt development projects in the zone because of his private business interests.

Okorocha concentrated on what he frequently calls: "I am building our dear state capital city" to international standard - as if he had ever seen a city of international standard without pipe borne water.
He merely wanted to buy the political class in Owerri zone to get into his political dynasty plan in Imo state, and by extension, in Igbo land.

But he was failed in Owerri zone

This is the road to the Imo state university teaching hospital, Orlu. It has been like this since seven years.
Okorocha and Nwosu rebuilt the roads and gate to Owerri campus of IMSU.

The second photo is the Imo state Fire Service station in Orlu since seven years.
