Governor Emeka Ihedioha has accused the immediate past governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha, of running the Secretariat with “I pass my neighbor generator”.
Ihedioha made this known in an interactive session with journalis on Tuesday in Owerri, the Imo State capital.
He also revealed that he didn’t know the depth of damage Okorocha had done to Imo State until he assumed office.
Taking a swipe at the now senator for always being on Channels TV and AIT bragging about the level of development he brought to the state, Ihedioha said:
“I didn’t understand the depth of the rot Okorocha left behind until I assumed office. There were only 4 cars left in government house when I visited the place to start work. Two of these cars had faulty air-conditioning systems. I met a state that was very much run down.
“When I visited the state secretariat, I saw different types of ‘I better pass my neighbor generators’ chained together. There had been no public power supply at the state secretariat for 8 years. Everywhere was leaking. But my predecessor was always on AIT and ChannelsTV saying he was performing. It is the height of wickedness!”
He also pointed out that his predecessor sold state properties to himself and cronies during his eight year stunt as governor.
