Okorocha has been released – Imo State Police

Imo State Police Command has announced that the former governor of the state, Rochas Okorocha, has been released.

Spokesperson for the state police command, Orlando Ikeokwu, made this known while featuring on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily’ programme on Monday

The Imo State police had reportedly arrested the former governor of the state, after a fracas over the sealing of a hotel belonging to Mr Okorocha’s wife by the state government.

However, on Monday, the police spokesman expressed that Okorocha was released on Sunday night after he was “invited” for “questioning” over the unsealing the Spring Palm Estate linked to his wife, Nkechi.

“He was released later at night,” the PPRO said, adding, “If anybody is found culpable, definitely, he will be charged to court. If investigation proves that he (Okorocha) has committed an offence, he will be charged to court.”
