.Madumere Describes Alleged Plot As Fallacy
By Uzoma Akobundu
A group, Imo Equity, has insisted on its earlier allegation that the wife of the Governor of Imo State, Nkechi Okorocha, is plotting with his son in-law and others to ensure the impeachment of Deputy Governor of Imo State, Eze Madumere.
The group through its Coordinator, Paschal Udochi, in a press statement at the weekend said that the recent development in the State has vindicated them.
The leader of the group revealed that the recent pairing of the Speaker of Imo State House of Assembly, Acho Ihim with Governor Rochas Okorocha’s son-in-law, Uche Nwosu has vindicated their claim.
The statement said; “We are aware of the pairing of Rt. Hon. Acho Ihim of Imo State House of Assembly with Governor Okorocha’s son-in-law, Hon. Uche Nwosu. This development has in no little way validated our revelation of Governor Okorocha’s wife, son-in-law, a dethroned majority leader of the State legislature among others’ grand plot to oust Imo Deputy Governor.”
The group therefore urged Governor Okorocha to call his wife to order, adding that she is over reaching herself.
The group said the paradox of hate that surrounds Mrs. Okorocha is being overshadowed by her outward pretentious lifestyle of a godly woman.
However, while responding to newsmen on the impeachment saga at the VIP lounge of Port-Harcourt International airport or arrival, on Saturday, February 24, Madumere described the said plot as a mere fallacy.
His words; “My brothers, I was not in the State when the said impeachment plot was raised. I described such as mere rumour if not fallacious. Many of you may not know may position in this government. I am an integral part of rescue mission government. I have paid my dues and have kept faith with the policies of the government I am part of. I do not believe it. I have not been served. However, when I get to the state, I should be able to know the real state of things but there is no cause for alarm.”
Of late, Imo polity has been dominated by the impeachment plot against the deputy governor who was said to be on official trip to Abuja with accusing fingers pointing at the wife of the Governor and her son-in-law who was said to have been endorsed by the father-in-law.
