Meanwhile, the outgoing Governor Rochas Okorocha has begun his gradual relocation to his private residence in Jos, Plateau State.
Our correspondent reliably gathered from impeccable sources in Imo Government House that Governor Okorocha who had since relocated to his palatial Spibat Estate in Amakohia, Owerri, following the failed bid of his son-in-law, Mr. Uche Nwosu to succeed him.
According to the source who preferred anonymity, “Governor Rochas Okorocha has started sending his personal properties and those of members of his House in Jos , Plateau State. He started packing his properties since last week. Don’t forget that he has already moved out of the Government House to his Spibat residence after the defeat of Uche Nwosu.
He added that “today they moved more of the properties to Jos and I think after the handover on May 29, he would prefer to remain in Jos except if he is able to reclaim his senatorial ticket.”
