The outgoing governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha, has taken a swipe on Senator Hope Uzodinma, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Imo state, describing him as “shameless”.
Okorocha, who said this in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Sam Onwuemeodo, added that Uzodinma would do anything to please his political masters to be in their good books.
He described Uzodinma as a “shameless” politician who is a pliable tool in the hands of some politicians within and outside the state who are bent on ruining his political career.
“Interestingly enough, the kind of courage and boldness Chief Uzodinma displayed or exercised in all his media outings against Governor Okorocha only showed that he has no shame. And he could do worst things if he has the opportunity.
“Chief Uzodinma contested the governorship election in the State with the ticket of APC and he could not win in his own Oru East local government. He could not win in any of the 27 LGAs in the State, and never came second or third in all the LGAs but only came fourth and he has the audacity to be granting interviews and talking balderdash.
“He has only confirmed that he was only used as a tool to destroy Imo APC. And they have promised him Ministerial appointment and that is the reason behind his current media Campaigns and to be listened to, he has to be insulting Governor Rochas Okorocha.
