Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, has protested the rumour going round that he had an encounter with a ghost who slapped him at the Government House as a result of which was flown abroad for treatment.
The governor described the rumur as false and wicked even as he denied traveling to India to seek spiritual healing.
The governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Sam Onwuemeodo, said that Okorocha had embarked on the foreign trip to woo investors to the state, saying that the allegation was the handiwork of the opposition party whom he said were able to cover up their shame by fabricating falsehood.
The statement reads: “Finally, they talked about the governor going to India to meet his native doctor. They concluded that bullshit by stating that the imagined attacks would take place before the end of that month (July).
“And knowing the antics of some of the PDP folks in the state, we accused them of being behind the malicious audio because it came twenty four hours after the convincing defeat of the party by APC in the re-run election in Okigwe Senatorial Zone and the three state constituencies of Isiala Mbano, Oru East and Owerri West.” [myad]
