| DEBRIS OF OHAKIM'S BOMBED OWERRI HOME |
Barely
24 hours after former Imo State Governor, Ikedi Ohakim, declared his
intention to contest the 2015 Imo Governorship election, his prefab, Owerri home
has been bombed by unknown arsonists.
Ohakim
who spoke to newsmen said "I don't know who could have hatched such
dastardly act against me and my family. Throughout my four-year tenure as
governor of Imo State, there was no single assassination or arson in the state.
I even picked the bill of some opposition figures who fell sick. I returned
recently from a medical trip and as ex-governor.
"I am entitled to government
picking the bill but the information I have is that the letter I wrote to
government was torn into shreds. My severance
allowance was not paid, the guest house I am entitled to was confiscated as
well as my personal effects. Will I be deterred or cowed? No. I am going to make
some political statements on Saturday, May 17, 2014.
Ohakim is expected to speak to his supporters and associates on Saturday where he is expected to formally declare his intention to contest the 2015 governorship polls.
