Vanguard gathered that “the current action of the governor, which not only came on the heels of last Wednesday’s labour protest in Owerri, headed by the National President of Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, Ayuba Wabba, is also closely linked with the recent obnoxious form which the administration forced Imo workers to sign before collecting their unpaid salaries.”
Imo SSG According to a statement by the Secretary to the Government of Imo State, Sir Jude Ejiogu, the workers caught in the sack-web include the Imo Water Corporation, Imo Cattle Market, Imo Sports Council, Imo State Environmental Transformation Commission, ENTRACO, Imo Marketing Company, Imo Consumer Protection Council, Hospital Management Board, and its headquarters staff.

A leader is supposed to work for the people, make life easy for the people, but this one is making life hard for three thousand people adding to the ones that were on ground. "this is just absurd.

419 governor. Nothing like APC in the SE again after you. People who refused to vote Emeka Ihedioha are already regretting it... I never wanted Rochas, so I'm not disappointed.

Rogue government . We will create 700,000,jobs in our first six months.

6 months after taking over, 700,000 Nigerians lose their jobs.

Oil facilities is being blown up.

Opposition leaders are being gagged with EFCC threats.

President Pharoah is disobeying the courts while appointing his brothers to manage a secular society with major different tribes and religions.


It's happening already.

Where the IPOB?
Why cry over one person in federal detention why 3000 of ur brothers is shut out by another tyrant in ur yard!

I am a staunch supporter of APC agender but this very one is uncalled for. I am not in support of this action based on the fact that they protested

Hope they were paid severance packages so they can start something with it.

Very bad and insensitive move by okorocha. To the PDP thugs on NL this does not prove anything. Lalasticlala rule 6 is being violated by the OP.

He may have personal reasons but what's better than making your people happy? 3000@ this period? Whichever wickedness played a role! But it won't last for God is above us all.

Unbelievable, are you guys sure of this sack?

My governor
My governor

Cc ujoatu come and authenticate this news!

Okorohausa,agent of d fake change in Igboland.

We gave them Emeka Ihedioha,they rejected him. Now they must suffer the consequences of their pettiness till they beg the 'rejected stone to come be the chief corner stone'

Sack? In this hard time? God help the people of Imo State

Change

The change is sweet. The change is real. God may Abia NEVER see this 'Change'.

Which party did they vote for.?

bastard son of a thousand fathers

Wrong time to sack please

Shebi Yolobas and abokiis like this man, I dash them this igbo-aboki.

I thought the APC govt were begging private firms not to sack workers at this time of hardship... i wonder were this country is headed when our leaders are the first to go against their own laws. Smh :-/ no matter what the excuse for this sack, he is only causing panic among the common men and not helping the nation at large. All anybody or every other person will see is Nigerian economy really going down hence the need for more panic.

He can't pay the poor workers but he can bribe oyegun the apc leader for his future ambition. Apc is a scam.

Imolite will ever regret the day they know Rochas. The man had diverted the state fund and all we have now is abandoned project. Wasting the scare resources

Apc is known for their policy somersaults. Imolites have themselves to blame for allowing the known fraudster rig himself into office for a second time.
