Former Governor of Imo State, Senator Rochas Okorocha, Monday claimed that the Presidency intervened in the matter which led to his release from police detention on Sunday
Okorocha who represents Imo West senatorial zone in the senate, was arrested by operatives of Imo State Police Command, Owerri after he unsealed Royal Palm Estate, Owerri, a property seized by the state government.
The former Governor also claimed that he was attacked by thugs led by Governor Uzodimma’s aides, Mr. Chinasa Nwaneri.
Speaking to his supporters at his spilbat mansion on Monday, Okorocha claimed that the presidency intervened in the matter.
“They kept me there ( police headquarters) and about 11:30pm they asked me to go. I want to thank the presidency for intervening in the matter. Governor Hope Uzodinma shouldn’t take my peaceful disposition for granted.
“He should remember that he will not be remembered by how many people he fought by how many projects he built.”
