A former Imo State Governor,
Ikedi Ohakim, has noted that people doing Mortuary business in the state are
now making a lot of money due to the poor condition of health facilities in the
state.
The former governor decried what
he described as “the increasing degree of government imposed poverty and the
comatose state of Medicare in the state, which has claimed several lives.”
Ohakim said this while informing
his supporters of his renewed governorship ambition, in his Burma Retreat
ancestral home, Okohia, Isiala Mbano local council area of Imo State.
He also expressed regrets that
the poverty level and poor medical facilities have sadly increased mortality
rate and mortuary business.
He said, “Mortuary business is
booming in Imo State and this is attributable to increased poverty level and
comatose state of the health sector in the state.
Ohakim said he was, “The most
experienced to rebuild the state in 2019.”
Ohakim also opined that none of
the other contenders for the gubernatorial seat can favourably compare with him
in terms of on-the-job experience.
The ex-governor further warned
people of the state of “the danger inherent in gambling with new faces”, as the
citizenry prepare to march into post-Rochas Okorocha era.
He added, “I ran a very robust administrative
model during my four-year tenure as governor. This culminated in the delivery
of well thought out, policy driven and people oriented quality projects that
are difficult to beat in the annals of Imo State and South East geo-political
zone.”
