Governor of Imo State, Hope Uzodinma has described former governor of the state Rochas Okorocha, as his biggest headache.
Uzodinma made this known at a stakeholders’ forum held in the state on Tuesday.
The governor accused the Senator representing Imo West Federal Constituency at the National Assembly, of usurping his (Uzodinma) role by not realising that his time had gone.
According to Uzodinma: “You will recall that I have said that I will use the opportunity of this stakeholders meeting to name those behind insecurity in the state.

“Since then, many politicians have latched on that statement to cause problems in the state. Even the media, both mainstream and social, did not help matters.
“I want to tell you that instead of naming them I will allow security agencies who are are already investigating those identified to finish their. Naming them would jeopardise the work of security agencies who are already doing a great job.”

The governor added, “We have many former governors in the state. We have former governors Achike Udenwa, Ikedi Ohakim, Emeka Ihedioha and Rochas Okorocha. But Rochas Okorocha has failed to recognise that he is a former governor
“Rochas Okorocha is my younger brother. I am older than him and today I am the governor. He should recognise that fact and accord me that respect.”
