A group called Imo Restoration Coalition has issued a declaration, called IMERIEMWE DECLARATION applauding Imo People for their resilience to stand down a vicious Governor Owelle Okorocha's imposition of a successor, from his family dynasty, by electing alternative Governor on march 9th polls.
The Convener of the group, former commissioner for information and strategy, High Chief T.O.E . Ekechi, made this statement in a communiqué signed by the founding members, at his country home, Imerienwe, Ngor-Okpala Local government area.
The group resolve was geared towards alarming the manner and speed, Governor Okorocha was transmuting himself into an emperor, which is a great danger to the sociopolitical and economic life of the Imo people.
Chief Ekechi, who is also the Founder, Imo Coalition of the All Progressives Congress, APC, indicated that the outgoing Governor's insistence on endorsing his son in-law, as Governor in 2019, was ill-will and undemocratic, adding that it was an insult to the sensitivity of sane Imolites.
You may recalled that the 2018 Imerienwe Declaration was articulated the seven point resolution, which remains the watershed in the struggle against impunity and self succession.
The Convener called on Governor Owelle Rochas Okorocha to start preparing his handover note for the incoming Governor, Emeka Ihedioha .
