OKOROCHA RETURNS, GIVES CO-ACCIDENT VICTIM N.2M


MORE than one week after he travelled to London for medical attention following his involvement in an auto-crash, Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State on Monday evening returned to Owerri to resume his official duties.
Addressing journalists at the Government House, Owerri Tuesday, Okorocha publicly made a donation of N200,000 to the man who rammed his Mercedez Benz car into his convoy, smashing the windscreen of the governor’s car, Patrick Osita Nnawuihe.
The governor, penultimate Friday, was involved in the auto-crash in Awomama, Orlu area of Imo during a trip to inspect on-going projects in the state. Okorocha also said he has forgiven Nnawuihe, urging him to utilise the money in effecting repairs on his vehicle. He expressed regret that from investigations and findings, Nnawuihe’s vehicle was about 20 years old and lacking some papers.

He thanked Imo people for their prayers for him all through the period he was in pains, using the opportunity to explain that he was certified fit in his brain medically, contrary to the rumour that he was not sane.
According to him, he used the opportunity outside the country to visit Pope Francis 1 in Rome after attending consecrations of an Imo State man as Papal Noncio in Vatican.
After addressing journalists, the governor quickly left on his inspection of job without entertaining questions from reporters.
