Gov. Rochas Okorocha Flies Out Of Nigeria 24 Hours After Aides Were Arrested For Fraud

Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha, has flown out of Nigeria to an undisclosed country.

Thisday reported on Friday that Okorocha travelled abroad as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) seeks to unravel how over N2 billion from the bailout fund given to Imo by the federal government for the payment of civil servants salaries was diverted.


A statement issued on Thursday by the anti-graft agency named the suspects as: Obi Paschal Chigozie, Principal Secretary to the Governor of Imo state, Uzoho Casmir, Director of Finance and Iheoma Kenneth, Treasurer.

EFCC added that “their arrest followed an investigation into the alleged diversion of the said money which revealed that, the cashier had made cash withdrawal of N456.532m between September 3, 2015 and October 10, 2015 from the government house account domiciled in Zenith Bank.

“However, it was revealed that the said amount was given to an aide of the chief of staff to the governor, following approval and directive by the principal secretary to the governor.”

The EFCC assured that the suspects would be charged to court as soon as investigations were concluded.

LET ME USE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO COMMENT ON MILE 12 & ORILE CLASHES BETWEEN YORUBAS AND HAUSAS.
YORUBAS ARE COWARDS,THEY ARE SNAKES THAT SWALLOW THEIR FRIENDS THAT WILL HAVE THEIR TAILS STICKING OUT OF THEIR MOUTHS. THEY THOUGHT HAUSAS WERE IGBOS.
IGBOS ARE PEACE LOVING PEOPLE, WHO ALWAYS MIND THEIR BUSINESS,BUT HAUSAS ARE BLOOD SUCKERS.
THEY WILL FINISH YORUBAS IF POLICE DID NOT INTERVENE
YORUBAS BELIEVE IN TOO MUCH TALKS, BUT HAUSAS DON'T BELIEVE IN TALKING,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,THEY WILL BELIEVE IN ACTION.
 EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM HAS DAGGER. NIGERIAN POLICE KNOWS THAT.
