described as false the report that Governor Rochas
Okorocha was slapped by a ghost and is in an
Indian hospital for medical treatment.
Mr Sam Onwuemeodo, the chief press secretary to
Okorocha flatly denied that governor is sick.
He also denied that the governor went to India for
treatment. “The governor had travelled to meet with
some of the investors who had invited him for
further discussions on the prospects of their
coming to invest in the State.
The Okorocha’s media aide said that his boss is a
Christian, and does not know what it means to see
“a ghost or ghost women”.
“He travelled with few economic aides, and we
informed Imo people and the general public and as
God would have it, two days to the planned trip, the
daughter gave birth to a baby boy and he would use
the opportunity to visit his daughter’’, Onwuemeodo
stated.
According to Okorocha’s aide, the governor’s wife
was already there with their daughter for what the
Igbo people call “Ile Omugwo” (visit to a nursing
mother by mother) and that Okorocha’s visit is to
see the new baby.
Onwuemeodo noted that in the event of the
governor being sick, the information would be made
public.
“Ailment or sickness has been there with mankind,
the angle that makes the whole claim funny is the
“ghost dimension”, and that explains how spiritually
poor those behind this balderdash are’’, he added.
Onwuemeodo blamed the report on what he tagged
the antics of some of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) folks in the state.
“We accused them (PDP) of being behind the
malicious audio because it came twenty four hours
after the convincing defeat of the party by the APC
in the re-run elections in Okigwe senatorial zone
and the three state constituencies of Isiala Mbano,
Oru East and Owerri West’’, he noted.
The Okorocha’s media aide said that his boss is a
Christian, and does not know what it means to see
“a ghost or ghost women”.
He said that the governor is being expected back to
the state and once that happens, that the public
would be duly informed.
