The proposed civic reception in honour of Imo State
governor, Rochas Okorocha, billed to hold today in
Aba, the commercial nerve centre of Abia State,
has been stopped on the orders of the state
governor, Theodore Orji.
Abia governor who alleged that the reception was a
ploy to launch the All Progressive Congress (APC) in
the state stopped the reception organised by
rescue missionaries to mark the 51 birthday of
Okorocha.
According to one of the organisers who pleaded
anonymity, “all arrangements have been concluded
for today’s event to mark our governor’s (Okorocha)
birthday, scheduled to hold at Abia State
Polytechnic, we have paid for the venue and
obtained police permit but suddenly Governor Orji
ordered that it should not be held on the soil of
Abia”.
Saturday Sun gathered that the sudden
cancellation of the birthday reception by Abia
State governor might not be unconnected with the
strained relationship between the duo.
It was equally learnt Governor Orji also instructed
the police not to permit any gathering in the state
in whatever guise as long as it has to do with the
Imo State governor.
When contacted the deputy Chief of Staff to the
Governor, Mr. Chinedu Offor, said that they were
not aware why the reception was stopped, adding
that it was not a political rally but a religious affair.
According to him, “our brothers and other
progressive minded people in Abia State felt that
since the governor had been hosted in the South
West, they felt they also should felicitate with him,
so I don’t see anything wrong with that”.
However efforts to reach the Chief Press
Secretary to Abia State Governor, proved abortive,
as his phone was not responding.

All is well
