His infamous administration as Imo governor is better forgotten. Nigerians know him for whom he is; a hypocrite and selfish political fraudster. He should not play his evil politics close to IPOB.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOkorocha collected many lands belonging to the people of Imo State by force, converted same into his personal property because he was running Imo State as a private estate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis atrocities in Imo State are pursuing him and his families, including his son-in-law Uche Nwosu because he could not advise his father in law to allow people their ancestral lands and homes. These will continue to hunt them till eternity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOkorocha started this ranting during the jamboree declaration he did in Abuja and mentioned IPOB to appeal to his gullible audience. Since he has decided to use IPOB as a campaign slogan, let him prepare well!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOkorocha arrested our women in Imo State thinking he can break the spirit of IPOB followers. The present administration in Imo State collected people\u2019s lands he took from them by force and handed back to the owners since then Okorocha hasn\u2019t been himself. He started sponsoring unknown gunmen and cannibalism in the entire region but we will soon expose him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
