A Nigerian Court has refused former Imo state Governor, Senator Rochas Anayo Okorocha's move to stop forfeiture of his recently seized property.

The Nigerian Senate President, Ahmad Lawan has condemned the gruesome murder of Ahmed Gulak. Gulak was a former Speaker of the Adamawa House of Assembly and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The death of Ahmed Gulak occurred on Sunday morning in Imo State while he was heading to the Imo Airport enroute his destination.

Ihedioha's continued silence in the face of these threatening security challenges in our dear state is not only conspicuous but also very suspicious. His silence could be interpreted in many ways: either we could see him from the lenses of some of his close associates and aides who have lent both moral supports and clearly sympathetic to the terrorists vandalization of our dear state. Close associates and aides of Ihedioha have never hidden their supports for the terrorists tormenting the state. Infact, each time there is a successful attack on the state they pop champaign and celebrate the terror but whenever there is a decimation of the terrorists they mount the stage and cry the loudest. I asked one of them recently his honest solution to the security challenges and he was very swift in telling me that the only thing that could guarantee peace in the state was for the resignation of the #PeoplesGovernor and he is not alone to this - this is almost the mindset of most of Ihedioha's associates and aides and should we take that also as the position of their principal? Tellingly enough, Imo PDP where Ihedioha is the sole proprietor recently called for demilitarization of the state - a call seen as the most unpatriotic and irresponsible and has generated so many backslash from Imolites across board. Ihedioha has sought to rule over this state two consecutive times — does it mean that in all those attempts, he was only interested in his selfish desires to rule and not for the interest of the people of Imo State?
