Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has eventually opened up on the N17 billion allegation.
“After that declaration, Imo PDP, went to town with the allegation that I have withdrew N17 billion. It is not possible. I have said this time without number, and I gave banks in Nigeria, seven days ultimatum to come and tell the world.”
“If I have borrowed from the banks any money not only that, I am not owing any worker in Imo state, I also challenged them in seven days to come out and say the truth.”
“I am happy to bow out of government but I want to appeal that there should be peace in the land. There should be tolerance in the land. I here that they are counting my property, they should also go to Abuja, and count the ones in Abuja.”
