KENNETH UWADI WROTE:
The fate of millions of hungry
looking, mal-nourished and oppressed Imolites will be decided soon as Imo
prepares to go to the poll in 2015. It is clear that for Imo to be better again
we must kick out the fat-cat Governor of Imo State Chief Rochas Okorocha in
2015. Okorocha has grown fat and sleek by preying on the hardship he imposed on
the masses. In an immoral manner, this wicked, godless, notorious and dangerous
fat-cat has looted Imo treasury dry and arrogantly displays the loot on AIT and
Channels TV before the eyes of the very people he has stolen from.
This fat-cat, who sometime ago was
owing banks in Nigeria here and there has overnight mutated to become stinking
rich and stands before the very people he has skinned to become affluent and
boast of his prosperity. He and his thieving cabals even have the guts to call
us never do wells and tell us that we were born to be “hewers of wood and
carriers of water” and that it is criminal for us Imo youths to aspire to get a
civil service job in Imo. After sacking 10,000 Imo civil servants he turned
round to offer Imo youths casual labour. Casual labour is it not a crime
against humanity?
This governor connived with Joseph
Dino of Jpros Limited and stole Imo tax payers N1.3 billion naira. He also
connived with Joss Marinlopez-pepe and stole Imo tax payers N3.5 billion. Look
at his puffy cheek; look at his thick neck and disgorging stomach. That is our
132 billion naira LGA funds and our 16 billion naira ISOPADEC monies that he
has swallowed. He claimed to be building twenty seven (27) general
Hospitals.The cost of the Hospitals is put at 20 Billion naira. He claims to be
constructing 15 Kilometres of road in the 27 L.G.A’s, the contract fees paid to
contractors without job being done. He has destroyed our LGA’s, destroyed our
town unions and made our youths jobless.
Yes, Imo has been suffering in the
hands of this wicked, clueless, visionless, godless, unprincipled, callous and
diabolical demagogue. This “virtue miss road” have a hidden agenda of imposing
perpetual hardship on the Imo masses in order to reduce them to a position of
servitude so that he might once more have the opportunity to dictate to us on
the type of life we should live, thereby ridicule us and the rest of Imo. That
is why he recently boasted that APC will rule Imo for 20 years.
This Governor sold Government owned
companies to himself via his brothers and relatives in the guise of lease such
as ITC ,Adapalm, Concorde and Imo Municipal transport company. He used his son
in-law Uche Nwosu, the commissioner for Lands to acquire peoples land in the guise
of development. He sold 90% of Government vehicles to his business partners in
the North there by making Government appointees to use their private cars to do
Government job. He has put Imolites into bondage by secretly borrowing billions
of naira from banks in Nigeria and abroad.
Okorocha has grown so desperate that
he can kill to come back to power in 2015. He is now going after all those that
are telling him to stop looting Imo . He wants to crush them all. He has found
out that the heavy inducement he doles out to newspapers and television to
advertise fake projects is yielding dwindling results so he is terribly mad
with those who are exposing his lies and impunity. His desperation is getting
deadly by the day. He is going about threatening, brutalizing and persecuting
his opponents and all those that disapprove of his tenure.
So many persons have expressed fears
on some threatening messages they have received. The latest report is that of
his former Aide and popular entertainer Mr Uche Ogbuagu who reported threats to
his life and that of his family members. He said he received threat phone calls
from Aides to governor Okorocha. His callers told him to drop his intention of
releasing his new album that is against Okorocha or face the music. Ogbuagu insisted
that the governor should be held responsible if anything happens to him or any
member of his family.
For me , I have been insistent and
trenchant in accusing Okorocha of stealing Imo monies and no coherent response
has been forthcoming from his camp. Instead, Okorocha is plotting on visiting
raw anger on me. He has been looking for me to put me in jail. He put Activist
Iwuoha and his wife in jail since June 2014 to prevent him from exposing some
documents against his government in this electioneering periods, documents
showing how they looted our monies. He knows I have the same documents so he
wants me in jail like Samuelson Iwuoha. He wants to frame me up as he did to
Samuelson. Even Vigilante members in my community have been instructed to report
me to the nearest police station once they see me. Professor Nathan Uzoma
Protus spoke against him and assassins visited him.
Yes, Okorocha , like the pigs in
“Animal Farm” has joined the club of “Consumers” who feed fat on the toil and
sweat of the producers. He is sitting on top of Mount Olympus with his fellow
oppressors to arrogantly look Imolites to the face and tell them to go to hell.
But Imolites will soon prove to them that If you buy suya, you must be given
pepper.
Because he suddenly found himself in
power, he allowed himself to be eaten up by power. He deemed Imo state treasury
as free fund to loot, buy and bribe newspaper houses , editors and TV stations
to write and broadcast flattering reports about himself. He deemed himself as
the best thing that had happened to Imo State and urged the hordes of
sycophants he recruited into his government to sing his praises. For close to
four years now he has being on sponsoring spree; sponsoring awards, sponsoring
lectures, sponsoring public shows and sponsoring articles and features that
were all devoted to celebrating himself, telling us lies upon lies while he and
his cronies made a huge feast of the resources of Imo State.
This thieving governor awarded
warehouse to Aba road contract to Jpros through Chief Okey Nwosu his brother
in-law, at whopping sum of N1.3 billion for a road that is less than 3km and
the N1.3 paid full in advance, which led to the blackmail and subsequent
impeachment of Jude Agbaso. This thief stole our N400 million flood money. He
squandered 45 billion naira loan he secured from Zenith Bank with the
allocation of the 27 local government of Imo as collateral. He sold IROMA
trucks and equipment to himself. The trucks are valued at 12.5 Billion naira.
He claimed to have spent 4billion naira on school Uniforms, Sandals and Canvas
to students, whereas only few schools and students in urban area benefited from
it. For more than three years now his fake free education programme has been
running in AIT and Channels TV. Free education of which 80% admission in IMSU
is given to non-indigenes while 20% to Imo students. Primary 1 to Jss 3
education is funded by the Federal Government while the billions claimed to be
spent on free education is a scam. Please google 114 reasons why Rochas Okorocha
must go to read more.
There is only one option for
Imolites if we want to regain control of our sanity and leave a brighter future
for our children and generation yet unborn. The option is to kick Rochas out.
We have long passed the era of negotiation. We have reached the point of no
return. Reasoning with the APC Government led by “danger boy Okorocha who is
riding a bicycle without brakes down a slope” has never worked and will never
work now. The APC under Okorocha has never kept a single of all the agreements
it has entered into with numerous stakeholders. In short, the APC has no focus
and credibility. Imolites cannot become blind and continue to be led by a
Bartimaeus. We do not know where we will head to if Bartimaeus wins again in
2015. Only Heaven knows. Even our Bartimaeus of a leader, surrounded by quacks,
liars, rapists and traitors does not know his destination in 2015. But this
blind journey whose beginning in 2011 was based on deceit must stop in May
2015. We say NO to this government of thieves.
