Misappropriation of fund: Is Gov. Rochas Okorocha for real?

Praise singers of Gov. Rochas Okorocha will never be tired as long as they are getting something tangible from his cheating government. In fact, even those who are not getting anything from that guy sing his praise only because they know little or nothing about the hidden side of Rochas government. The thing is, I used to be one of them, I thought he was different and working, I thought his strategy could revitalize Imo State and its people, however, it is obvious now, I thought wrong.

The heavy news booming in Imo State right now is the impeachment of the deputy governor, Gov. Agbaso, for alleged misappropriation of fund, in short, stealing of public fund. I am not surprised that Mr Agbaso is been accused of stealing money, I am not surprised that an impeachment move is riding against him, I am also not surprised that top praise singers from Rochas camp is coming out on TV to speak against him and in favouring Rochas in the process, what I am surprised about is that no one is pointing same finger to Gov. Rochas.

Gov. Rochas Okorocha is a man with multiple personality. Today he comes and say one thing, the next day he shows up to say another thing. He claims he has provided motorable roads in the entire Imo State whereas people travel down their villages only to return city clothed in red soils. He claim he provided free education for every indigene of the State whereas schools, government schools at that, still charges exorbitant fee per child. He claimed that Orlu and Okigwe is now comparable with some satellite towns in Abuja whereas these two places still look like they never been touched before…Gov. Rochas is a very big lair, no wonder some people call him ‘Oji-onu’(mouth maker).

Rochas ultimate goal is to become the president of Nigeria, if you remember, former president Olusegun Obasanjo told him then, to go and rule his State before coming to contest for the president, so he is desperate to succeed and that desperation as now misleading him and exposing him to too many mistakes. For the sake of those of you who do not know, Gov. Rochas Okorocha has sold Imo State through the unpayable dept he owes. Since he became the governor of Imo State, he has borrowed about $82 billion dollars from an International corporation and owe local contractors billions of naira which they have began asking for payment. It is my believe that Rochas  brought same multiple personality character he use in his charity establishments to Imo State as governor. It is my believe that he might even be worst that his predecessors. It is my believe that if nothing is done, Rochas will dupe Imo State.

Let EFCC and other law enforcement agencies look into his government!
