Thousands of Women, under the
auspices of PDP Women Liberators (PWL), staged a peaceful protest during the
weekend, demanding an apology and stoppage of alleged harassment against
ex-Governor Rochas Okorocha’s daughter by the agents of Governor Emeka
Ihedioha-led government in Imo State.
Okorocha’s daughter, Uloma, is
married to Chief Uche Nwosu, a former Chief of Staff to the Imo State
government and the state governorship candidate of Action Alliance (AA) in the
last 2019 polls.
Speaking on behalf of the PDP
Women at the weekend, the leader of the
group, Mrs. Adiela Uzoma, expressed disappointment with the action of the governor,
regretting that such action has the tendency of portraying the party in bad
light before Nigerians.
However, the Woman leader (Uzoma)
said, “Nothing has so ridiculed the image of our party than the molestation
meted on one of Imo’s brightest female stars, Mrs. Uloma Nwosu, by an aide of
our governor, and the leader of our party in this state. We wish to first of
all distance ourselves and all PDP women in Imo State from such action.
“We are the nucleus of PDP in
this state, as we hold the power button of the party. We wish to clearly state
our disappointment with the governor for his silence over this regrettable
abuse on women by his agents.
” Even though Uloma Nwosu is not
a member of our party, the PDP Women Liberators is built on the vision of
promoting the party (PDP) as gender friendly and sensitive. We categorically
condemn any action that portrays our Party otherwise.
“We hereby demand that the
governor; tenders an unreserved public apology to Mrs. Uloma Nwosu and her
family within 72 hours of this publication. And to bring to the book, everyone
involved in this abuse of women. We will take step to ensure that such abuse on
women is stopped forthwith.
“The governor also should tender
an unreserved apology to Mrs. Uloma Nwosu, whom we consider an Amazon of grace
and enterprise. He (Ihedioha) should apologize to the family of the immediate
past governor of the state, Rochas Omorocha and to Chief Uche Nwosu for this
unwarranted abuse.”
