Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo state has dismissed news of a planned impeachment of his Deputy, Eze Madumere, as a ruse and a figment of the imagination of political rabble-rousers in the state.
He said that those allegedly plotting the much rumoured impeachment neither have the capacity to do so nor are they members of the State House of Assembly whose statutory duty is to effect impeachment.
In a statement in Owerri, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr. Sam Onwuemeodo, explained that those who cooked up the impeachment story in the hope that it would help them in their ambition are also the ones marketing it.
Onwuemeodo challenged politicians in the state who are angling for Okorocha’s job in 2019 and who think that they could realize their ambitions without the support of the Governor should go and do what he (Okorocha) did in 2011 and 2015 by taking the ticket of APGA and winning the election and by joining the APC and also winning for a second term in 2015.
He contended that “there are lot of political parties looking for people to come and take their tickets,” stating that any of the aspirants who thinks or feels he has the political capacity to win election in Imo state without Rochas’ contribution should go for the ticket of one of such parties and win election and let the people see.
