Special Assistant on Print Media to Imo state governor, Mr. Ebere Uzoukwa has debunked reports making the rounds that Gov. Rochas Okorocha and the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Hon. Benjamin Uwajimogu are presently at war.
Uzoukwa described the report as another falsehood peddled by few disgruntled elements and enemies of the state government whom Imo people know will stop at nothing to ensure that the Okorocha-led administration fails.
According to him, the cordial relationship that has continued to exist between the governor and the Speaker as well as members of Imo State House of Assembly has overnight become their headache.
As democrats, Gov. Okorocha, Hon. Uwajimogu and members of Imo State House of Assembly are committed to taking the state to greater heights so that history will always remember them as men who came, saw and conquered.
This is one of the major reasons Gov. Okorocha has continued to closely involve the legislature in executing most projects and programmes that have no doubt impacted positively on the
lives of Imo people.
It is on record that Gov. Okorocha has at no time and for whatever reason meddled in the activities of the legislature. In fact, he is one of the ardent believers of separation of powers
and checks and balances.
The leadership style of the governor, prudent management of the state resources to achieve unimaginable result and zero-corruption approach in governance has so much endeared him to the Speaker and members of Imo State House of Assembly,the media aide stated.
Uzoukwa further stated that Okorocha is committed to working with all relevant stakeholders to ensure that Imo becomes better and has been moving on the same page with the Speaker and members of the state legislature in achieving the task.
