Gov Okorocha is planing to blackmail me. Ihedioha said

The Governor-elect of Imo State, Emeka
Ihedioha has accused officials of the Governor
Rochas Okorocha’s government of an attempts
to blackmail him.
The chairman of the Governor-elect’s
inauguration planning and handover
committee, Chris Okewulonu said this at a press
conference on Saturday in Owerri.
According to him, the outgoing governor,
Rochas Okorocha and his officials have not
assisted the committee towards ensuring a
seamless inauguration ceremony of Ihedioha.
He noted that rather there have been
deliberate attempts by some hirelings of the
state government to blackmail the incoming
governor with baseless and spurious assertions.
Okewulonu said, “In the course of our work, we
met thrice with the outgoing government’s
team, believing that issues agreed upon will be
strictly adhered to in their implementation.
But unfortunately, the reverse proved to be
the case.
“Rather, we have taken note of deliberate
attempts by some hirelings of the state
government to blackmail the incoming governor
with baseless and spurious assertions.
“In the last couple of weeks, the mass media
have been awash that N150m was released by
Governor Okorocha to the incoming governor to
assist in the inauguration planning exercise.
“Let me restate for emphasis that no such
money was ever released to this committee or
to anybody else who is part of the incoming
government of Emeka Ihedioha.
“We have not also received any form of
assistance whatsoever from them.
“We are indeed piqued at futile attempts by
some busybodies to take undeserved glory for
the wonderful achievements, the incoming
governor has recorded even before assumption
of office.”
