EFCC Grills Former Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha Over Fraud Charges

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has invited the former Imo State Governor and the lawmaker representing Imo West Senatorial District, ROCHAS OKOROCHA.

According to his media aide, SAM ONWUEMEODO, the senator's arrest was based on an old petition written by the Imo State Government

The anti-graft agency had quizzed the lawmaker after operatives of the Imo State Police Command arrested him in February for allegedly unsealing Spring Palm Estate linked to his wife, NKECHI.

The Imo State Government sealed the estate and other properties it claimed OKOROCHA and his family members diverted but the Senator has since said the properties were legitimately theirs.

OKOROCHA's spokesman said the anti-graft agency has been investigating petitions written against him by the state government since he left office in 2019.

Former President, OLUSEGUN OBASANJO says 'bad blood' is the reason for the annulment of the June 12, 1993, Presidential election thought to have been won by late business mogul, MOSHOOD KASHIMAWO ABIOLA. 

The former president who described the late acclaimed winner of the election, ABIOLA as his school mate at the Baptist Boys High School, Abeokuta, said the annulment robbed Egbaland, the rare opportunity to have three of its prominent sons, occupy the seat of the president, at different times.

OBASANJO spoke in Abeokuta, during his investiture as a Trustee of the Abeokuta Club, a sociocultural organization of Egba people of Ogun State.

The late business mogul was also awarded a posthumous Vice-Patron of the Club during its 46th President Party held at the secretariat in Abeokuta.

According to OBASANJO, ABIOLA richly deserved the award bestowed on him by the Abeokuta Club.
