The immediate past governor of Imo state, His Excellency, Dr.
Ikedi Ohakim has come hard on Governor Rochas Okorocha describing him as
unreliable governor who discards executive promises like used napkins, denying
ever praising him as insinuated by widely circulated Facebook post made by the
governor’s social media aide known as Rochas Pikin.
Debunking the post
in its entirety, the former governor wrote: “There is absolutely no iota of truth in the post order than a
childish excitement of seeing me in a handshake with his benefactor and a
leader who has impoverished the people and failed comprehensively
in all departments of leadership and development.
Should I praise Okorocha because civil
servants now receive half of their salaries instead of 100%. Should I praise
the government for owing pensioners for over 30 months and recently issuing dud
cheques to them? What exactly are those good works for which I was supposed to
have be showing praises on "My Governor, My Governor"?
He continued: “Should
I praise him for the quality of his infrastructure; provision of clean drinking
water in every kitchen; compliance with due process in contract administration
and leadership; should I praise is for the functional healthcare facilities in
the state or the cleanest environment south of Nigeria. I can go on and on.
The fact is that no right thinking Nigeria can
praise Rochas and his pikin.”
In the post monitored by Ifeanyicy.com, Dr. Ikedi Ohakim lampooned Gov. Rochas Okorocha as a man who
can never earn his praises haven subjected the good people of Imo state to
untold hardship and wondered why he should praise such a man as unreliable as the
governor.
He urged the good
people of Imo state and Nigeria at large to discard such post which he
described as “malicious and defamatory statement” against his person.
